I will Love You Forever - Chapter 110

Gerard placed a call to someone and asked to book a flight as soon as possible. He wanted to use the plane because it would be faster and he was worried that something might have happened to Ayla.

“What about your meeting with the investors? Didn’t you say you still had some work to do here?” Madison asked both worried and confused.

“It doesn’t matter.” he got into his car again and wanted to start the car when he got a call from an unknown number. His brow furrowed but he still answered the call anyway.

When he heard the voice from the other end, his tensed nerves relaxed. “Gerard…”

“Ayla… Where are you?” he asked still worried a little even though from Ayla’s voice she sounded okay.

“I’m at the hospital but don’t worry, I’m fine and I only brought a friend here.” she quickly cleared the air knowing that Gerard would be worried.

He leaned back and pinched the space between his brows. “What happened?” he didn’t want to bother her with questions but he couldn’t hold himself back. When it comes to Ayla, he could be a nagging parent.

“I got a call from Kel, the one with that incident the other day and she told me her sister was hurt and she didn’t know who else to call,” she explained and the person at the other end was quiet.

“I’m sorry I ignored my curfew but she needed my help and I don’t even know where my phone is at the moment that’s why I’m calling you with a public phone.” she was in a phone boot.

Because Ayla knew that Gerard might be worried, she decided to call him on a public phone after realizing that her phone was missing.

“Call me once you get home.” was all he said and she nodded even though he could not see her.

“Yes. I will. Don’t neglect your work because of me. I promise you I’m fine and this would never happen again.” she promised sincerely and Gerard responded.

“Um.” the lines got disconnected and Madison sighed in relief.

“I’m glad she’s fine. You should call to cancel the flight,” she suggested.

Gerard dialled a number on his phone and it was soon answered by a woman. Before she could say anything, he made his request.

“Have the meeting moved to tomorrow night.” his voice was domineering and powerful. Even Madison could not help but sink into the chair.

‘Is he really the same person who just finished talking to Ayla now? He looks like the complete opposite of the man from earlier.’ she thought to herself.

“Sir, that’s going to be quite hard because the investors are also very busy.” she tried to make Gerard understand but he was already determined.

“If they are not ready by tomorrow night, the deal is off.” that was all he said before disconnecting the lines.

Madison pursed her lips and just watched him as though he was a god or a judge passing his verdict.

He drove off to a hotel and dropped Madison there before going to another mansion different from the one he arrived at.

“Welcome sir.” the butler took his tuxedo jacket and walked with him into the mansion behind Gerard.

“The master is already asleep.” the butler explained and Gerard nodded.

“I’ll greet him tomorrow.” he walked to a room that was already prepared for him and as soon as the butler went out, Gerard sighed and sat on the bed exhausted.

The room had not changed at all since he last visited his grandfather. It seems as though the old man preserved the room even though Gerard didn’t visit often.

He couldn’t help but stare at his phone waiting to get a message or a call from Ayla. This way, he would be sure that she was okay.

After waiting for a while, he got up to take a shower but his phone began to ring and he rushed over only to realize that the person calling wasn’t Ayla but Diana.

Reluctantly, he answered the call. “Do you have the death wish?” he asked with a serious tone but Diana knew that he was only joking.

A chuckle was heard at the other end. “What? Were you expecting someone else?” she asked mockingly.

“Speak or prepare for

annihilation.” his voice was cold because he was expecting someone else.

“Your hunch was right. Should I move on with the plan or wait?” she asked.

Gerard sighed. This was indeed related to Ayla and whatever concerns her was very important to him.

“Wait, watch, report and strike.” this was something that he didn’t need to explain to her.

“Understood.” the lines got disconnected and Gerard stared at the phone for a long time. He has murderous intent but doing, his gaze softened and he dropped the phone then began to walk away when he got another call.

He guessed that it was going to be Diana again so he walked over reluctantly but the screen reveal Qin.

His brow furrowed and his gaze turned dark. “What?” he had asked Qin and Diana to watch Ayla when he was gone and he tried calling Qin but the young man was playing call and drop.

“You asked me to call you once I get home.” the voice that came from the other end made his brows relax.

He didn’t expect that Ayla would be the one on the other side. “Where are you now?” he asked and Ayla responded.

“I just got home.”

“Is Qin there with you?” he asked and his brow furrowed again.

Qin waved his hand at Ayla telling her to say no. “Yes.”

“Good. Now go inside with the phone and leave him there.” Gerard responded calmly and Qin waved her goodnight as though he heard was Gerard said and didn’t even complain about his phone being snatched.

Ayla did as Gerard said telling Qin goodnight and thanking him in secret before leaving him outside alone, phoneless.

Qin sighed happily that it was only his phone that was taken away. He had followed Ayla closely all this while but forgot his phone in the car when he went into the hospital.

While in her room, Gerard asked, “How is your friend?” his voice was calm and Ayla wasn’t expecting this reaction but was happy that he understood.

“Doctors say she’s fine but should remain in the hospital for a few days,” she responded a little tired.

“You should sleep early and wake up late tomorrow. You don’t have to go to school since it will be Saturday.” Gerard suggested.

Ayla looked at the time and corrected him. “Actually, it’s already Saturday.” Gerard looked at the time and sighed. He wanted to scold her for ignoring the curfew on the first day of his travel but said nothing.

As though she knew what was on his mind, she decided to bribe him. “I’ll make your favourite food when you come home.”

Gerard scoffed knowing what she was trying to do. “Are you trying to avoid punishment Mrs Ayla?” he asked with his brow raised.

“What if I am?” she asked back in a low voice.

“Then you need to do more than just bribe me. Besides, have you forgotten that my favourite food is you?” Gerard was being naughty and didn’t even need to put so much effort into it.

There was silence for a while but Ayla happened to come up with the perfect answer. “Oh, I didn’t know Mr Jarek was a vampire.”

Gerard chuckle and responded truthfully, “Now you know.” his voice was low and raspy.

Ayla scoffed. “Tsk, too bad, I like werewolves and demons,” she responded casually and Gerard laughed slightly.

She felt like that laughter were melodious to her ears and her cheeks could help but turn red in an instant.

“But I want to be a vampire today. So that I can have you all to myself.” he didn’t seem to lack words when it comes to things like this.

“Ha… If you’re a vampire then I’ll be a hunter.” she turned him down instantly but Gerard’s response left her speechless.

“I’ll gladly surrender and be your prisoner.” his words flowed like a river and was easily heard by Ayla. But because he sounded so sensual, her heart skipped a beat multiple times.

‘If this goes on, I might have a heart attack.’ suddenly, she began to hip cup. “You’re shameless… Hick… Mr Jarek. Hick…”

Gerard chuckled after hearing her hip cup like that. “Well it seems Mrs Ayla is going to have a hard time sleeping today,” he spoke then sighed.

“Hick… Why do you think so?” she asked confused.

Gerard paused then spoke as a matter of fact, “Uh… Because Mr Jarek isn’t there. Who will be the pillow?” he asked teasingly.

Ayla scoffed. “Qin hasn’t gone too far. I might as well just tell him to come back,” she responded and there was a long silence on the other end.

“What are you thinking? I want to call him back so that he can take his phone back. What else were you thinking?” she asked confused and she heard a cold voice from the other end.

“I might as well just make him crippled so that he never gets to hold a phone again.”
