Chapter 169 Negotiations

AMY POV :

TICK …

The clock struck 3 and I sighed in worry, a whole hour has passed since I texted Derek.

He missed breakfast, and so did the lunch, he disappeared like a ghost.

I don’t know if my decision made him displeased or is it just work, but I am getting bothered by his disappearance.

He must have informed me before leaving.

CLICK

The door of my house unlocked and I held my breath in dread.

Who could that be?

Before I would stand on my ground, the sight of the man appeared and I let out my breath with ease.

“Where have you been?”

I questioned impulsively, and immediately shut my lips when I realized I am showing too evident concern for Derek which I shouldn’t have.

Not so fast !!

“Work…” Derek spoke in a dull tone.

Maybe he’s tired.

I didn’t dwell on the subject and started to prepare the table for him.

“Go, and freshen up, I have cooked lunch for you.”

I told him, my voice remained void of emotion, and he obeyed without making any argument.
