I Just Called To Say I Love You - Chapter 290

Evening

Shelton mansion

After locking up and crying for God knows how many hours, Erica decided to have a talk with her father.

Just then someone knocked the door.

Thinking that it might be Father Shelton, Erica sighed and wiped her tears.

“Erica, it’s me,” Lisa said before knocking the door again

“Yeah, I am coming,” Erica said and opened the door

Looking at her tear-stained face, Lisa frowned and asked “Why are you crying, Erica?”

“Sister Lisa, I—” Erica stopped saying and hugged her before crying her heart out.

Lisa patted her back and took a deep breath.

When father Shelton told her about the misunderstanding between Erica and Oliver, she thought it was a mere thing but when Ryan told her that Oliver broke his relationship with Erica, Lisa couldn’t help but rushed to check Erica out.

“Erica, you can’t cry okay,” Lisa said before wiping her tears

“Do you know what he said to me? He hates me, sister Lisa.” Erica said in between her sobs

“What did he say to you? Did he shout at you?” Lisa asked

“He—” Erica stopped saying and slowly shook his head. She doesn’t want to say about their conversation and how he called her a whore.

She knew Oliver and others are best friends but she doesn’t want to make things awkward between them.

“If he didn’t say anything then when are you crying? Why don’t you talk to him?” Lisa asked

“I tried talking two times but he is stubborn.” Erica sighed and said

“Let me and Ryan talk to him,” Lisa said

Erica vigorously shook her head and said “No sister Lisa, you can’t talk to him. Wouldn’t that make things more awkward?”

“Why? You know talking will always help—”

Cutting Lisa off, Erica shouted “I tried talking to him and but he doesn’t trust me. He don’t want to talk and I broked this relationship. I don’t need him anymore.”

Understanding that something is off between them, Lisa placed her hand on his shoulder and said “You can always share your problems with me.”

“Sister Lisa, I want to start afresh life,” Erica said

“What do you mean by that?” Lisa asked

“I got a modelling opportunity in the UK one week back, at first I decided to ignore it but now I need a break. I want to start a new life.” Erica stated

“Erica, Are you sure about this? I mean Oliver—”

“I don’t care about him,” Erica said in a firm tone

“But—”

“Please Sister Lisa, I don’t want to talk about him.” Erica sighed and said

Lisa took a deep breath and nodded her head “I will ask dad to book tickets for tomorrow.”

Erica hugged her and said “Thank you, sister Lisa.”

Francis mansion

Going through the process of all the dishes, Amy sighed.

“I wish I make perfect dishes for Andy.” Amy sighed and said

“Don’t worry honey, you will rock it.” Aunt Rosy assured her

“Mom, I bought everything from the store and I also marinated chicken,” Amy said while showing aunt rosy marinated chicken

“I think it’s good.” Aunt Rosy said

“So, what do you want to prepare?” Aunt Rosy asked

“I think I can make apple pie, chicken wings, white sauce pasta and cupcakes for sure,” Amy explained her menu

“All the best honey.” Aunt Rosy excitedly said

“Thank you and do you think I can do them?” Amy asked

She is feeling nervous because this is her first attempt to do professional cooking. Though she tried cooking in past which was a big disaster, this time she decided to cook without any mistakes. She decided to follow Aunt Rosy’s instructions without using her non-cooking brain.

“Don’t worry honey, you can rock it.” Aunt Rosy smiled and assured her

Amy took a deep breath and said “Okay, let’s start.”

“Let’s prepare apple pie first.” Aunt Rosy said

“Yeah,” Amy said and took green apples

“Now, you have to peel it using a peeler.” Aunt Rosy said and explained the steps to bake apple pie

“Oh my god, this is going to be amazing,” Amy exclaimed before placing apple mould filled mould in oven

“Yeah honey, you did it well.” Aunt Rosy smiled and said

“Now, let’s make Andy’s all-time favourite cupcakes.” Amy clapped her hands and said

Aunt Rosy nodded her head and explained while Amy prepared everything under her guidance.

“Yeah, just set the timer and it’s done.” Aunt Rosy sighed and said

“Oh my god mom, I made them.” Amy jumped in excitement

Glancing at the time, Amy said: “Andy will come home at any time, I will go get ready.”

Aunt rosy nodded her head and said “All the best honey.”

Amy nodded her head and rushed towards her room to get ready.

……

Amy and Andy’s room

Looking at her wardrobe, Amy frowned “I badly need to shop Prego dresses.”

She then sighed and took a comfy loose t-shirt and rushed towards the washroom.

By the time, she came out of the washroom; Andy is sitting on a couch reading some business magazine.

“An, how is your day?” Amy asked while drying her hair

Wrapping his arms around her, she kissed her nape and said “I miss your presence in the office.”

“But I didn’t miss you.” Amy chuckled and said

“Seriously babe? How can you say such things to me?” Andy frowned and asked

“I am stating truth, honey.” Amy casually replied

Andy pouted his lips and said “You don’t love me anymore. You love baby’s right?”

“Yeah, I love them more.” Amy pursed her lips and said

“Amy, I know someday or the other, I would face this situation. That’s the reason I want to shift to our place, so that you will miss me all day.” Andy scoffed

“How cute,” Amy said before pinching his cheeks

“But you didn’t missed me,” Andy complained

“I missed you too hubby. So, I prepared your favourite dinner too.” Amy excitedly said

“You prepared what?” Andy widened his eyes in shock and said

“I cooked food for you, honey.” Amy pinched his cheeks and said
