Daddy, Chasing Mommy Back is On Us!

"I mean, I'm going to apply to the organization and step down as soon as I put an end to this matter."

Selena looked at Pierre in surprise. He is in his prime, so how could he just step down and abandon his position like that? "Pierre, I'm actually not..."

Knowing Pierre as a responsible man, Selena was aware that her husband initially had no intention of getting married until she entered his life and disrupted his plan. Thus, she didn't want him to give up on his responsibility and persistence.

"I know what you're trying to say, but everyone who works in this line of work usually stays until their early thirties, which is a safety concern from the organization. Therefore, this is a rule from our organization, and it has nothing to do with you. So please don't beat yourself up." Pierre's words somehow eased Selena's mind a little.

"When I step down, I'll have more time to spend with you and the kids. After all, I owe you all way more than it seems," Pierre added while gently rubbing Selena's back.

Selena looked up and met Pierre's gaze as the man's eyes somehow looked like they were filled with confusion and bewilderment. His sorrowful expression seems to be telling me something. He's never looked this down before. Although both of them parted with a heavy heart like they usually did when Pierre had to leave every time, Selena couldn't help but have a strange feeling about his departure this time. "Promise me, Selena. No matter what happens, you must stay at home and... wait for my return." Pierre paused his speech mid-sentence and especially emphasized the last few words.

Selena nodded. "Alright, I will. The children and I will be waiting for you to return with a remarkable triumph."

Pierre reacted with a smile, but his eyes seemed to be filled with emotions that no one could fathom. "Remember what you just promised me. Wait for my return. I'll be back." Selena wrapped her arms around Pierre's neck and said, "I trust you that you will return safely, so you'd better not let me down, or I'm going to make you regret it!"Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

"Sure, that's a deal!" Pierre then planted a kiss on Selena's lips.

The night felt as if it was shorter than it usually was. When Pierre left at midnight, Selena was still sleeping like a log. He then kissed her hair and gently rubbed her cheeks with his fingertips. I wish I didn't have to leave you, darling.

"Don't forget what you promised me, Selena. Wait for my return," Pierre murmured.

Selena soon closed her eyes and slept soundly, while Pierre steeled his heart against his pain and reluctantly left.

The next day when Selena woke up, she habitually reached out her hand to feel Pierre beside her, only to realize he was gone. As she stared at the empty space next to her, tears rolled down her cheeks from her eyes.

After Pierre left, Selena was down in the dumps. Therefore, when Jude paid her a visit, she pulled her leg and said, "Tsk. Tsk. Tsk, look at you, my friend. You really can't live without your man, can you?" Selena glared at Jude and refuted her. "You should try leaving Satan and ask yourself how you feel about it."

"Well... I guess I would feel the same as you do right now..." Jude smiled brightly and asked, "You must have had an unforgettable night. Aren't I right?"

Selena was annoyed by her friend as

she quickly fixed her shirt and covered her chest. Man, what's this lady thinking? "That's none of your concern!" Soon, she sighed and said, "Jude, I have a bad feeling about this."

Nonetheless, Jude didn't reply to Selena's words even though she did notice there were more bodyguards with her lately. Although it seemed~~ to her like a foreboding that was going to happen anytime soon she didn't speak her mind. Instead, she said, "Alright. Alright, you've grown used to it anyway, so you might as well check this out!" Jude then flashed two tickets right in front of Selena.

"The tickets for the concert?!"

"Exactly! See? I'm your bestie, aren't I? These tickets are hard to get, man. So you and I are going to make the tickets worth the money by enjoying ourselves to the fullest!"
