Chapter 215: Jealousy (1)
"How long do you plan to lay on top of me?" Rafael asked, keeping his hold on Annalise’s waist. He didn’t mind how they were now, but he figured Annalise would want to get up to clear this up with his mother.
Annalise rested her head on Rafael’s chest. She wanted to get up, but then it meant she had to face Beatrice and all her assumptions. She hoped that somehow if she stayed quiet, Beatrice would forget what she saw.
"Please," Annalise pleaded with him to do something about his mother. She didn’t want Beatrice to get the wrong idea, but right now, she could not face her to tell her that she misunderstood why her son’s maid was lying on top of him in the garden.
Annalise wasn’t paying attention to her surroundings to know if Wendy and Siena had joined Beatrice to see her as she was with Rafael right now. What was with Beatrice’s timing? First seeing Annalise eating his breakfast and now this.
"Mother," Rafael said, motioning with his right hand for her to go away.
Beatrice continued to back Rafael and Annalise since she didn’t want to see them doing anything. "I just want to make it clear that I was not stalking the two of you. Wendy thought she made you angry and sent me out here to see. That is all," she explained.
"Good. You can leave now," Rafael replied. He needed her gone before Annalise would poke a hole through him since she was poking at his chest with a finger right now.
"You don’t need to come inside, but please, anywhere other than the garden. You know how much she loves her garden, Rafael. Goodbye," Beatrice said, hurrying back toward the house so the two of them could get back to what they were doing.
The children were so much different these days to be doing something in the garden in the middle of the day.
