Chapter 164: The Task
Xander was still in the Country U, wrapping up all the remaining works, taking meetings after meeting. He just finished another toxic meeting before going back to the hotel where he was staying and slumped himself on the couch.
He grabbed his mobile phone and checked the files Ralf had sent him.
"What’s with her stiff look?" Xander commented as he watched Yera’s videos and photos from years ago that were saved in Lyndon’s mobile phone.
Then he looked at the last video where Lyndon was asking Yera to smile but in the video Yera covered the lens with her palm. Xander’s heart skipped a beat hearing the words Yera said to Lyndon in the video, "There see that smile? It cost a lot to be in the video. Very precious for anyone else to see! It’s better that I smile in front of you directly, so don’t record it, that way you’ll continue to ask for my smiles and I will keep smiling for you like this..."
He wondered what kind of smile did Yera gave to Lyndon at that time. Was it as bright, beautiful and lively, as her smiles towards him? Xander knew it was already in the past and things were different now. Yera’s smiles were only for him and he was confident about it. But the jealousy king of a husband couldn’t help but get jealous again!
He looked at the photos next and smiled while he whispered, "Look how expressionless my darling is here. She’s always in serious look. Indeed, she needed me to change this stoic look on her face."
Xander could not wait until the next day for his flight, to reach back and be with his darling. He called Yera’s mobile number but it only kept on ringing.
He sighed at the thought that Yera was performing another operation. As Rizie told him, Yera had been working really hard lately and her name was often requested personally by the patients who underwent surgery ever since she went on screen to discuss Brione’s condition as her surgeon.
His thoughts were interrupted by the sudden ringing of his mobile phone. It was Ralf.
"Sir, Lyndon had received a message from Jam. I sent it to you and I think it is something that shouldn’t be ignored." Reported Ralf. As soon as the call ended, Xander looked and read the messages Ralf were pertaining to.
[I see that you’re still ignoring me. I guess you think I’ll go easy on you huh? Alright if you continue doing this then I have no choice but to pull you down. Do you really think I can’t do it? What will happen to you and your family if I spill the beans out? I can see that you’re not taking me seriously...]
