Unexpected Encounter: A Second Chance at Love

After being thrown out of the kitchen by Rachael, Andrew took a shower and changed into comfortable home clothes.

He then entered his study room to get some work done while Rachael made lunch.

p He was busy checking his emails when he received a call from Justin.

"Your brother-in-law, how strong is he?" Justin inquired.

"Why? You wanna wrestle with him?" Without waiting for his reply, he added, "I can arrange a match for you."

Justin: " "

"Why would I wrestle with your in-laws? And even if I did, whose side will you take?"

"Of course I'll take my wife's side."

Andrew's fast and shameless reply made Justin speechless.

"Did you find out anything?" Andrew wanted to know what had exactly happened but he didn't wish to ask George directly. So he had told Justin to find out.

Since the fight happened in his club, there must have been many staff members who had witnessed it. All Justin had to do was ask them..

"Yeah but I really didn't understand what exactly happened." Without waiting for Andrew's reply, he started explaining what he had heard. "This guy.. Uranus who is admitted in the hospital is a regular customer of the club. But he doesn't have a very good reputation with women."

"Anyway, yesterday George came to the club with a friend who is also friends with this Uranus guy. They bumped into each other and the three of them shared a few drinks."

"One of the waiters who were serving them reported that things were going smoothly but suddenly this Uranus started talking about a woman in a very inappropriate manner. George got very mad and started trashing him. If the people around hadn't stopped him, he would have killed that guy."

Pausing for a while, Justin added, "Rachael's brother seems to have a very bad temper, does Rachael have a bad temper too?"

"George has a very good temper," Andrew defended him. "I am sure that guy went overboard. Did the waiter mention any name he had heard?"

After listening to the summary of the whole incident from Justin, Andrew wondered who Uranus was talking about that got George so mad and aggressive. He was getting curious to know more.

"The waiter doesn't remember clearly but he thinks the woman's name was Emma."

Andrew raised his brows. "Emma?"

"Yeah, do you know any Emma?"

Keeping quiet for a while, Andrew said, "Emma is one of Rachael's best friends."

"Oh—so is George dating her?"

"I don't think so."

...

[Watson Mansion]

After finishing a very important meeting, Emma dropped by to check on George. She had been trying to call him since yesterday but the latter refused to receive her call. This made her mad and worried at the same time.

When she entered the mansion, she learned from one of the workers that Michael and Reeta were not around.

"What about George?" She inquired.

"Master is in the study, he has asked everyone not to disturb him."

Without saying anything, she made her way towards the study.

…..

[Study room]

Taking a sip of the whiskey he had poured for himself before coming to the room, George closed his eyes and sighed.

When was the last time he had lost control of his anger to such a great extent? He had no idea.

The last time he wanted to kill someone so bad was when Oliver had hurt his sister.

Pinching the space between his brows, he frowned.

And the worst part was, he wasn't even feeling guilty or bad. Instead, he was getting a constant urge to drive to the hospital and beat the shit out of that guy again.

After finishing his work yesterday, he went out for a couple of drinks with one of his friends, Derek.

When they arrived at the club, they bumped into Uranus Refter who happened to be an acquaintance of Derek. This was the first time George was meeting that man.

Out of courtesy, Derek invited Uranus for a couple of drinks and the latter agreed.

The three of them had just started drinking when Uranus started talking about the number of women he had been with and also the ones he had eyes on. This is when he mentioned Emma's name out of nowhere.

Uranus told them how he thought Emma was very sexy and alluring. And how he couldn't wait to make a move on her.

Given how drunk Uranus was, George tried his best to ignore his words at first. But when he kept adding indecent words and calling Emma with inappropriate names, he lost his cool.

He didn't wish to create a scene at the club so he warned him first.

But when Uranus mockingly laughed at him and said, 'You are interested in that chick too? Alright, you can have her after I suck her dry.'

This is when George dropped all his principles and rational thoughts. He was blinded with anger and all he wanted to do was tear him apart.

He punched his face, stomach and every possible place. He ruthlessly kicked him, grabbed him by his collar and threw him against the wall. If the employees of the club and Derek hadn't stopped him, he would have surely killed him.

When Emma entered the room, George frowned and opened his eyes.

Their eyes met. Both of them did not say anything, they just kept staring at each other.

The rage in his heart started to calm down a little when he saw her. A weird sensation enveloped his heart.

Without saying anything, she approached him. She grabbed his injured hand. Her brows creased a little when she saw the bruises.

"Why did you fight with Uranus?" When she went to her office in the morning, she heard from them about Uranus being hospitalized. Someone had terribly beaten him up.

Retracting his hand back, he frowned and looked away. He didn't say anything.

This made Emma feel more angry. She kept staring at him with her lips pursed.

After a long silence, she asked him. "Was it because of me?"
