Purple Romance

Chapter 275: Did Andy sleep in your room?

''That isn't exactly an answer but all the same, I like her for you. She seems like a nice person. She even greeted me''

''If you mess with Paula, I will kill you'' Andy said sternly.

''Relax, she is all yours. I am your elder brother; I should look out for you. It isn't easy to finally find someone that you fancy after a long time, I should look out for you''

''Father asked of you? He knows you are avoiding him''

''I don't care. I can never be perfect in his eyes anyways. You are the one he loves''

''Leslie'' they looked at each other. They both knew Leslie was right, but Andy didn't believe such a thing. He also knew well the reason why Leslie had changed into such a person. Once upon a time, he was just Leslie, a simple guy who didn't wanted much out of it. He just wanted to be with the woman he loved but things didn't work out the way he had planned it out because of the interference of their father.

''Don't try to make me change my mind. The harmony between us got destroyed the day he interfered in my life and causing the separation between me and Willow''

''Willow didn't deserve what happened to her but it's been ten years now. How long do you intend to mess around? Sleeping with different women just to spite father won't help you either'' Andy and Leslie loved each other but they were also different. Andy loved his brother but hated the way he changed women all the time.

''Don't worry. I won't be sleeping with different women anymore. I found someone I connect with really well''

''What do you mean?'' Andy closed the files and looked at his brother. 'Leslie, you are not into any weird game, right?''

''I am. You know I love taking risk. I just took one even though I don't know how it will end, but, I am curious about how far I will be willing to go. She is quite good, maybe a little too for me but still, it is better than having all these gold diggers around me, right?''

''Who is this girl that is also crazy enough to have a no strings attached kind of deal with a devil like you?''

''Well, she is indeed bold, considering that she suggested it first''

''She suggested it?''

''En, the sex was that good'' Leslie said proudly and Andy through a file at him and he caught it.

''Crazy bastard. If I get to know this girl, I am telling her she is heading towards a major heartbreak by been in that kind of relationship with you. You are so nasty, man''

''So, when do you plan to confess your feelings to her?'' Leslie asked and took a bottle of water that Andy had drunk from to sip. His throat was a little dry.

''I'm not her type''

Leslie choked and coughed. He placed the bottle down and looked at him with a shocked expression, ''eer, what? Are you serious?''

''She is only 22 and I am 32. We are ten years apart. In other words, it is impossible between us''

''Wow. I didn't think she would have such high standards. But, you are such a fine meat, how could she downplay all the cuteness in you? even I sometimes feel that you are more beautiful than me even though we look alike''

''Shut up''

''Have you tested the waters to see whether she likes you or not?''

''No, what's the use of doing that?''

''You should trap her and kiss her. If she slaps you, then, that will probably be the end of your friendship with you but if she doesn't, then she likes you. You should watch some movies and learn a few tricks. Let me tell you, I am worried that your heart will not appreciate another woman if you let this one go''

''Leslie, that's enough. Let's go and get something to eat''

''You are no fun at all''

.

Betty walked out from the washroom after crying her heart out. She had been hurt by Andy's words and went into the washroom, locking the main door before going into one of the stills to cry.

She was now feeling thirsty and walked towards the hotel's mart when she saw Paula walking out with a bottle of water. She had her eyes fixed on the screen of her phone and was typing away. It looked like she was chatting with someone.

Betty's eyes flashed sinisterly before she faked a smile and walked towards her. She stood in front of Paula who didn't see her early enough to dodge her. She ended up bumping into her but luckily, her grip on the phone was tight so it didn't fall off her hands.

''Hi, you'' Betty said.

Paula looked at her and stuffed the phone inside her back pocket before speaking to her, ''is there something I can help you with?''

She was the one who didn't bother to be polite first, so why should Paula act polite towards her. She was someone who treated others the exact way they treat her.

''What are you doing here? Everyone is at the pool'' Betty asked.

''I came to get a bottle of water'' Paula lifted the bottle of water in her hands.

''I came to get Andy a drink''

''Okay, see you around then'' Paula replied and turned to go and Betty held her hand making her stop, ''is there something else?'' Paula asked and took her way away from her.

''Paula, would you mind waiting for me? I will get the drinks and we can go back together''

''If you have something to ask, do that right away. You don't need to act like you like me'' Paula said to her and she flushed embarrassed.

'I will be back after getting the drinks'' Bella said and walked away.

Paula furrowed her brows as she looked at Betty walking hurriedly into the mart. She didn't like the vibes of the woman. She hated fake people. people who pretended to like you but actually hate you.

She removed her phone and started chatting Lisa once again. She had sent her the pictures she took at the bench and was now attaching a few information to them.

''Paula, here'' Betty reached Paula's side and stretched forth a canned mixed fruit juice for her, ''I was rude earlier. My apologies, I was mad at something and directed it to you. I'm sorry'' she added.

''No, it's alright. This water is enough for me'' Paula refused to take the drink.

''If you don't take it, I will think that you still hold me accountable for what happened''

''No, I am not into canned drinks. A lot of cabs, not healthy for me'' Paula explained. She was used to taking the natural fruit juices that Lisa always made. Her taste buds had become accustomed to it that she found the canned drinks a little not to her liking again.

''Just take it, please or I will feel bad'' Betty insisted and Paula nodded and took it. she didn't want to seem rude because people were walking to and fro around them.

''Alright''

''Let's walk while we chat'' Betty suggested.

''I was actually going back to my room to rest. I'm not a pool person'' Paula said to her.

''Then, I will see you to your room. This place is like a second home. Andy and I grew up together, we've never been separated. Andy and Leslie have watched me grow and have always protected me and my sister''

Paula listened to Bella as she talked about her childhood with Andy.

''Andy is a kind hearted man; he is a man I have grown to like'' Betty stopped walking and turned to face Paula, 'Paula you understand what I'm saying right?''

Paula looked at her and smiled, understanding her very well, ''you mean to say that Andy is more than just a brother to you, right?''

Betty was taken aback but smiled confirming her statement, ''you are right. to me, Andy isn't just a family relative but he is more like man to me''

''Why are you telling me all this? Andy and I are just friends. don't tell me you feel threatened by me?''

''No, I am not looking out for you. It has already been decided by our families that we would get engaged sooner or later. I am afraid that you would misunderstand his kindness towards you for something else. Andy is naturally kind to everyone he meets including the janitor''

''I see''

''That being said, can I find out something from you?''

''What do you want to know?'' Paula was getting tired of her.

'Do you by any chance know where Andy slept last night?'' Bella looked at Paula's face densely not wanting to miss any change in her expression. ''Did he go to your room that night?''

Seeing how she was looking at her face, Paula smiled and shook her head, ''so the intruder from that night is Betty, if I tell her Andy spent the night in my room, she is going to keep bugging me' Paula thought to herself before answering Betty, 'you're thinking too much Betty. Andy and I don't have that kind of relationship for him to sleep in my room''
