My Billionaire Boss Is Jealous Of My Boyfriend - Chapter 16
He wore the jog pants and used the towel to wipe his head. The room was warmth, suddenly the temperature took a drastic change and it fell up to fifteen degrees. But fifteen degrees was nothing much harsher for Emmett Li. He yet took a cold shower as usually and stood across the window of his room like it did not matter him at all.
“Starry sky of the cold chilly night has a different view. No doubts why I feel so good every time I see them.” Emmett Li talked to himself.
He stared at the twinkling sky and eventually turned around to grab his half sleeves t-shirt. The complete transformation from Experienced CEO to a civilian, he looked extremely handsome like any spoilt son a wealthy ċunt businessman who was very proud of the handsomeness of his brute son.
Emmett Li bit the corner of his lips with a sigh. “Bitch Peter, I hate you.” he recalled the afternoon scene and cursed Peter for wasting his time and not helping him either. “I just needed a little help and you made a fool out of myself, freak.” NO matter how abusive his language sounded, the way his lips moved, he looked extremely amazing.
Any ways, there was no stopping to his curses. Emmett Li descended the stairs of his big villa and came down to the dining room. He was about to sit in his chair when suddenly his eyes fell on the person who was already sitting on the dining table. His back was facing Emmett Li, and so he could not comprehend who it was!
But it did not take him a long time to recognize who does the personality it matched with and Emmett Li pounded on him like a predator. “How dare you enter my house without my permission!” he encircled the neck of the person and complained.
His grip was deathly. Even though Emmett Li was being playful, his hard iron grip felt so tight that the person almost choked. “Idiot, let me go I can’t breathe?” he coughed, Emmett Li instantly let him go and rub his back not knowing that his playful act would lead his stupid friend to struggle with his breathing.
Yep, that was Peter.
He was sitting in the seat and waiting for Emmett Li. Peter ċȧrėsses his neck. His eyes annoyingly glared at his CEO friend while his nose flared in anguish. “You almost killed me!” he snapped to which Emmett Li laughed.
“Come on, you are aren’t. Sinners don’t die so early. The God would call the both of us when our real time comes or else he knows that we will set his hell on fire.” Emmett Li winked his eyes, he was surprisingly acting joyful unlike in the afternoon.
Peter who was smiling and laughing, caught the hint of zeal of his friend’s face and tug the corner of his lips up, and into a devilish smirk. “What? What is that for” Emmett Li noticed it and asked.
The plates were served and the servants started bringing their food. Several cutleries were place in the middle of the table while the two friend gaped at each other. “Someone looks very excited, may I know the reason why? Coz I remember, in the morning they were ready to eat me alive for some cause!” Peter raised a brow, his smirk darkened as the last cutlery came and was placed on the table with the others.
Emmett Li smiled. How can he not see the glint of tease in Peter’s eyes. And how can he not tell him that a mere candidate from today’s interview irked his life the worst. Kelly Ho came like a hurricane who destroyed all his mental peace with her smile and happiness nevertheless, Emmett Li was a barbarian himself, and he determined to not let the hurricane go unless he did not calm it down.
An old butler bowed across the two guys with a soft smile. “It is nice to see you here master Peter, a long time no see.” he talked serenely in his cracking meek voice as he came forward to serve them the good.
As soon as he touch the lid of the cutlery that was the nearest one to him, Emmett Li snarled. The old butler halted and blinked his eyes, his smile never fading away. “Butler Shing, how many times have I told you to rest? You don’t have to do this for me any more, I have plenty of other servants who can do this for me. Please go.” there was an unsaid softness in his eyes.
“Come on, master Emmett, let me do this. I don’t have many more days left in my life to serve you food, I may die tonight or tomorrow. So please let me do what I have been doing for last twenty years.” Emmett can’t protest against the old butler, his eyes lowered down while the trembling fingers of butler Shing held the spoon to serve the food to his master.
Emmett Li’s eyes tore up with tears after hearing the words of his death and the little days he were left with.
He silently sat intact motionless as the old butler served the food to both the guys and bowed across them. “You have not changed even a percent, Emmett. My little prince is still the same, cute and easy to get annoyed.” butler Shing’s weak laughs hit ears as he stroked Emmett Li’s hair with love and affection while Emmett’s eyes tore up more.
His hands circled around the old butler’s waist and face dug in his skinny waist while he cried few tears of bothering. ” Date you speak something like that! You are not leaving me this soon. You still have to live twenty more years and wean my children. So don’t think about dying again. You know I can’t tolerate my loneliness.” his face came up from butler Shing’s stomach and smile while his eyes caught the sight of butler Shing’s wrinkled face. “I can’t afford to lose you. You are the only best thing I am left with.” Emmett Li possessively said.
He was only eight years old when his mother left him to his father saying that, she was too young to have an eight years old child like Emmett. His father loved him, took care of him until the thought of his own life struck him.
The greed of his own life forced his father to leave Emmett in this house only when he was eight years old, alone with a butler. And nobody never came to meet him since that day. And then, butler Shing became his only family with few close friends.
For twenty years, fuċkɨnġ twenty years he took care of Emmett Li’s likes and life and now, having him talk about death and all, scared Emmett.
He was all alone, with no one to call as his but butler Shing. And having him speak like that got Emmett emotional. He can’t really afford to leave him. “If you really want me to live long, settle down soon. Marry a nice girl and make babies. You are twenty eight, you need to act fast if you want me to wean your children, Emmett Li. You see, a seventy one year old butler can’t take your care any more. I need a helping hand.” Butler Shing said.
