Unexpected Encounter: A Second Chance at Love
Chapter 70 DATING

[Collins Mansion] ]

When Andrew arrived home, the first thing he did was to look for Rachael.

"Madam is in the room," one of the helpers told him.

"What about Edward?"

"Madam coaxed him to sleep a while ago, he is in the guest room."

Before going to the room, Andrew stopped by the guest room to check on Edward. After making sure he was comfortably asleep, he went upstairs.

….

[Bedroom]

When he entered the room, the first thing he saw was Rachael struggling to zip her dress up, with her back facing the door.

Andrew froze and stopped in his tracks. The sleeve of the dress was slipping down her shoulder. She kept flipping her damp hair from one side to the other.

He gulped in nervousness. Even though he could see just her back, it was enough to make him feel things.

He looked away to stop himself from ogling at his wife.

When Rachael felt someone's presence, she turned her head towards the door. When he saw him, she quickly turned around. "Oh—when did you come?"

"Just now." Before she could say anything, he asked, "Do you want some help?"

She bit her lower lips and nodded. She had been struggling with the zipper for almost ten minutes now. It was stuck somewhere and her hand couldn't reach it.

After getting a green signal from her, he walked forward. When he stopped right in front of her, she turned around.

Andrew inched closer. "How did it get stuck?"

"I don't know." Her breathing hitched when she felt his warm finger on her skin.

While he was trying to figure out what was wrong with the zipper, his eyes landed on the black mole on her right shoulder blade.

He reached out and touched it. "You have a mole," he muttered in a low voice. Her soft skin felt so nice under his skin. He then traced his fingers down her back where the zipper was stuck.

Rachael closed her eyes and shuddered. She tried to turn around but he stopped her.

He grabbed her waist to stop her. "Stay still, let me fix this first."

She obediently nodded and listened to him.

Andrew fiddled with the zipper for a couple of seconds before zipping her dress up.

After fixing her dress, she expected him to walk away but to her surprise, he wrapped his arms around her waist and hugged her from behind. He then rested his chin on her shoulder.

"I like that mole on your back."

Before she could say anything, he added, "When can I see it again?"

"Andrew—" She muttered his name when he started nuzzling his nose against her hair.

"Hmm?"

"T-The door is open—" They weren't alone at home, there were several helpers and aunt Maria. Not to forget even Edward was around. What would happen if something just walked in?

"Are you saying that we can continue after closing the door?" He tightened his grip around her waist.

Realizing that the words she had used were a little misleading, she quickly defended herself. "I didn't mean that."

"Then what did you mean?"

"We have to drop Edward to my place and then drive to Yumen, we will be late."

"Hmm, we will be late," he verbally agreed but his actions remained the same.

After a few seconds when Andrew showed no signs of moving, Rachael took things in her hand.

She grabbed his hands and removed it from her waist. "Go take a shower, we have to leave early. It's not safe to drive at night." She then gently pushed him away.

"So now an exhausted man can't even come home and hug his wife for sometime? This is not fair," he complained.

Shoving the towel in his hands, she pushed him towards the washroom. "Alright, complain while you shower."

"You are depriving me of my right to hug my wife as much as I can."

"I am using my rights as your wife to stop you from getting distracted." She pushed him inside the washroom and closed the door.

Left with no other choice, Andrew decided to listen to his wife. But he would definitely get back on her later.

[In the car]

After dropping Edward off at her parents' place, Rachael and Andrew began their journey.

"I didn't expect Edward to get along with mom and dad so fast." When they brought Edward there, Rachael was worried he wouldn't want to stay and would be uncomfortable. But to her surprise, Edward clicked with Reeta right away and started calling her grandma .

"Edward never throws a tantrum and he also gets along with everyone. In fact, when he was very small, he rarely cried. This made things very easy for Justin."

"Mom and dad are more happy than he is. I am telling you, Justin has found himself two free babysitters," she chuckled.

"If they love babies so much, you and George should give them grandkids as soon as possible," he remarked. "Well, given that George is not married yet, the responsibility of making your parents happy falls on your shoulder. And since you are my wife, I have a share in that responsibility too."

Playing smacking his hand, she chuckled, "We have been married for less than a week and you are already talking about having kids."

"Well—" he shrugged. "Doesn't harm thinking about the future."

"You think about our future?" When he nodded, she curiously inquired, "And what exactly does it look like?"

"Well, since we straightway jumped into marriage, we skipped the most essential part~DATING. So the first thing I will do is, take you out on many dates. We will also have movie nights, I'll buy you gifts, we will celebrate our first month anniversary. In short, we will do everything that a couple does when they are dating."

His cute yet romantic plan brought a smile on her face. "And then?"

"You won't be able to resist my charm and then you will fall in love with me." Andrew grabbed her hand and planted a kiss on her fingertips. "No one can resist my charm."
