Chapter 295: His Achilles's heel

''If you had touched me or anyone else, I would have spared you but definitely not her. She is my Achilles heel. I am going to get in touch with your leader. That hand won't be yours by tomorrow. Do you understand?'' Andy removed his phone and dialled Leslie's number.

Paula, Lisa and Magdalene who were inside the eatery all had shocked expressions on their faces. This was probably the first time they were seeing Andy angry. Paula turned to Lisa and asked.

''He wouldn't really do that, right?''

''I think he is going to do that. Paula, why do I feel that he is even more cunning than his brother?''

''Leslie, call the leader of the scorpions and tell him that if he doesn't cut off the hand of the man with many piercings by tomorrow, I will make sure they leave this city''

''Wow, slow down. he managed to anger you who rarely get angry?'' Leslie said over the phone.

''He touched Paula'' Andy said.

''I will tell him right away'' Leslie said and hung up the call.

Andy stuffed the phone into his pocket and turned to Paula, ''come with me''

''Oh'' Paula nodded and looked at Lisa.

''Go, I will send your friend home'' Magdalene said to Paula.

''Yes, go'' Lisa added.

Andy held Paula's hand and walked out with her leaving the eatery. Lisa and Magdalene rushed out and saw them going further away.

''Whoa, he looked really possessive just now. Am I the only one who felt that?'' Lisa asked and Magdalene shook her head.

''I felt that too'' she said and they looked at each other.

''Hi, I am Lisa''

''I am Magdalene. I work with Paula. I feel so embarrassed that we are meeting like this. I wanted us to meet in a better circumstance.

''Well, it just happened. Can't be helped. Thank you for protecting Paula''

''Sure. Let me take you home first''

''Okay'' Lisa smiled and got into the car and Magdalene drove away.

..

Andy's villa.

Andy handed a bag of clothes to Paula and pointed at the guestroom, 'you can wash up in that room and change into this. I will prepare something for you to eat before I send you back home'' he said to her.

''Oh'' Paula nodded her head and went into the room. She stopped at the door and looked at Andy whose gaze was still on her. He seemed to be having a lot of conflictions as he watched. She smiled at him and closed the door.

Andy tussled his head and murmured, ''I hope I didn't scare her?''

.

A few minutes later, Paula returned wearing the new clothes that Andy had given to her. It was a complete set so she wondered how he knew her size because on the way, he stopped at J fashion department store and went inside alone. She flushed thinking about the possibility of him hand picking her undergarments.

''I called Godiva. She was the one spoke to the shop attendant while I stood outside. You can be comfortable around me. I didn't pick anything myself'' he said to her. He didn't want her to think he was a pervert. He had already scared her enough.

''Oh, thank you'' Paula said and pulled the chair out and sat across him. He had already made some pancakes and warmed a glass of milk for her, ''thank you for the food''

Andy hummed a reply and looked at her as she started to eat quietly. He could tell she had a lot of questions but he didn't know whether he could answer them or not. he didn't want her to avoid or cut him off because of his actions.

''I'm sorry. You must have been scared, right?'' he finally asked looking at her.

Paula smiled and nodded her head, ''I was indeed scared. It was the first time I was seeing you get angry, but, don't worry. I won't avoid you. I was scared but I am not afraid of you'' Paula said to him and his eyes lit up.

''You really aren't afraid of me?''

''No''

''I told you about my mother, right? She and my dad divorced. When that happened, she took me away and remarried. The man she got married to belonged to the underworld and I grew up training after him until my father came for me. I might look well-mannered and poised but I still have some of the thug life in me. I'm sorry for showing you my dark side. I promise I won't lose control like that again''

''I now understand why you acted that way. You were really cold at that time''

''I know''

''You lost control because of me. but, why did you bring me here to bath again? It's not like I was dirty or something''

''He was dirty. I didn't want him to stain you with his filth''

Paula chuckled and shook her head.

''Why are you laughing?''

''I didn't know you could this jealous? I should be careful with whom I chat with then''

''No, you don't have to do that. I am not the kind of man who limits a woman. You have the right to be friends with anyone. Just don't look at another man with such loving eyes''

''Loving eyes, you bet''

''Paula, you won't see me this angry again. I will be a better man; someone you can trust''

''Eat or it will get cold. I will send you home before Lisa tracks you down using your GPS''

''Right. Lisa said that you were in front of our apartment. Did you have something to say to me?''

''No, I wanted to see you before I go to bed. Wait, you and Magdalene. I should really consider making your schedule so that you won't be meeting up. You two are too close''

''Why? Is it because she is gay? Are you afraid she would make me fall for her?''

''That is true but you two are not good for each other. She is impulsive and you are very sly. I'm afraid you two are going to end up bullying everyone else''

''What? No, Magdalene is the only one who wanted to be my friend. If you separate us, I will quit''

''I was kidding. I am happy she is looking out for you. Magdalene also comes from a similar background like me so I understand her''

''She told me sister Godiva gave her the job because she saved her''

''Yes, eat''

''Okay''

..

Andy pulled over in front of Paula's apartment and got down with her. Lisa was standing at a distance waiting for them.

''Go in'' Andy said.

''Drive safely. See you tomorrow'' Paula waved at him before turning towards Lisa.

''You are in a different outfit. Where did he send you?'' Lisa asked as soon as Paul got to her.

Paula shook her head and pushed the door open and Lisa followed her inside, closing the door behind as she pestered Paula for more details.

''Tell me already. I even stayed up this late just to see when you will return''

''Nothing happened, okay? I just washed up and changed into this, then he prepared dinner and we ate and he brought me home. That is all, can I go to bed now?''

''What, is that all? Nothing happened?''

''Nothing happened''

''Whoa. My chaste darling, I am proud of you. You really are a character''

''Lisa, a lot of things happened today. I will tell you about them tomorrow morning. I am so dead tired''

''Oh, go and get some sleep first. Let's talk tomorrow'' Lisa said and sat in the hall.

''What about you? Are you not going to sleep?''

''Not yet. My wrist is acting up because the blistered busted, but I've taken some medicine. I will be fine''

''Right the blisters. I am sorry, Lise. I only cared about myself''

''No, don't say that. You are the last person I would ever be ungrateful to. Go to sleep. I will go to bed after watching the late show''

''Alright, don't hesitate to wake me up when you can't handle the pain. I don't mind staying the night with you or maybe we could go to the hospital together''

''Silly girl. I've heard you. go to bed fast''

''Alright, good night, love'' Paula hugged Lisa.

''Good night'' Lisa smiled and went to take the remote. She turned the TV on and sat down to watch the late show. It wasn't long after when she heard her phone ringing from her bedroom, 'oh my phone. I hope it doesn't wake Paula up'' she said and hurried to the room.

Lisa picked the phone up and frowned seeing the series of unknown numbers. It was a new unknown number and she didn't know the location of the caller either.

After hesitating for a while, she answered the call, ''hello'' she was met with silence, ''hello, who is on the line?'' she asked and was met with silence again. Lisa sighed and was about to hang up when she heard the voice she dreaded the most in the world.
