Second Lead Syndrome: A Second Chance - Chapter 296

When Kris and Keso got to the car, Bella gave Kris a called.

“I got it the bombs… and evidence. I can meet you at your place in half an hour.”

“I’m busy. Keso will come and pick up the stuff.”

“Alright,” Bella replied and the call ended.

Kris looked at his watch. He still has two hours before going back home to be with Lena.

“Stop at the company.” Kris spoke.

Keso nodded and drove toward the company. After a 20 minute drive, he parked and stopped the car.

“Get out.”

“Ah?” Keso looked at Kris.

“I’m dropping you off here. You can take one of the company cars. Go pick up the bombs from Bella and take the evidence from her. I want Gary to analyze the evidence to make sure it’s real.”

“Yes, Boss.”

Keso got out of the driver seat while Kris got into it. Without another word, Kris slammed on the gas and drove out.

It was a short drive until Kris got the store he wanted. He parked the car and walked in. Immediately, some of the shoppers looked at Kris and smiled at him.

An attendant rushed up to Kris and greeted him.

“Welcome, Mr. Li.”

“I’m looking for a gift.”

“Yes… right this way to our exclusive items.” The young woman led Kris to a different part of the room.

As they walk in, the young lady pointed out several of the new items they have. Kris looked at them and then shook his head.

“I want something… less.”

“Cheaper?” The lady asked.

“No.” Kris glared at her. Does she think the price is a problem for him?

“Oh…. Um… yes.. less. I can show you what we have over here.” The attendant walked over to a different room.

As they arrived, Kris smiled. Yes… this was what he was looking for.

He walked around and start grabbing a few selections from the racks. He chose about 7 sets and then walked out.

“I want them wrapped and individually bagged nicely.”

“Yes, sir.”

Kris handed the lady his credit card and then went back to the waiting room until she returned with his items. He thanked her and then left.

He still has some time left so he stopped by a bakery and got something sweet for Lena.

He stopped by Lena’s apartment first, but she was not there. He immediately called her and she picked up.

“Hmm?” Lena answered the phone.

“Where are you?”

“On the rooftop, it’s better to draw up here.”

“Ok. I got you some scones.”

“OOHHH…. i love scones.”

“I’ll be right up.”

“Okay.”

Kris went up to the rooftop and he spotted Lena outside, with a light sweater and drawing on her tablet. He walked over, kissed her cheek really quick and then placed the box of scones on the table.

“What’s that?” Lena pointed to the bags that Kris was holding.

“Your presents.”

“Oh? Can I see?”

Lena went in to grab it but Kris moved them behind him. “Not yet.”

“Why?”

“Cuz… there’s a time for presents.”

“Ok… How was your morning then? A success?”

“Of course.” He smiled. “And yours?”

“Yes!”

Lena got up from her long balcony chair and went and sat on Kris’ lap. She changed her tablet to the website that Kylee was showing her before.

“I choose 5 houses.” Lena scroll through them for him.

“Ok. We can go see them on Monday and choose a final one if there is a specific one you like.”

Lena put the tablet down and looked at Kris. She put a hand on his shoulder, turned her head alittle, and gave him a sweet kiss on the lips.

“I think you spoil me too much.” She kissed him again. “I might turn lazy.”

“That’s fine.” Kris kissed her back. “I’ll make money to raise you fat and plump.”

“Stop it… don’t make fun of me.” Lena slapped his arm.

“I’m not making fun of you.” Kris laughed.

He picked Lena up and stood up from the chair.

“Hey… what are you—-AH!” Lena screeched. “KRIS!!”

Kris had dropped Lena to the pool and she was now drenched.

“The water is cold!” Lena pouted. “And these are new clothes!”

“I know what will make you warm.” Kris took off his outer suit jacket. He unbuttoned his shirt and threw it on the ground.

“….”

Kris took a few steps back and then jumped into the pool with Lena. He splashed some water at her when he jumped in.

Lena tried to swim back to the side of the pool but Kris grabbed her legs from under the water and pulled her down.

“AH!” She let out on scream before her body sank into the water.

Kris pulled her down and then grabbed her face and pulled her in for a kiss… underwater. He prived her mouth opened and dived into her sweet mouth.

It was just a quick one before they both came back to the surface. Lena was panting hard, trying to catch her breath, while Kris just held her waist and teased her some more.

“Stop it…” Lena gave him pinch on the arm. “We already confirmed that kissing under the water does not work as in the movies.”

“I know…” Kris pulled her closer to him and kissed her nose. “But don’t you think I look hotter when I am like this?”

Lena paused and looked at him. His hair was pushed back from the water. His abs were absolutely hot… and teasing just make everything about him sexier.

“Yeah..” She blushed.

Kris chuckled at her shy response.

“I’m cold.” Lena spoke.

“Ok. Don’t want you catching a cold.” Kris got out of the pool first and helped Lena get out. “Want to try the hot tub instead?” Kris pointed at the tub.

“You’re really energetic today,” Lena observed.

“It’s not every day that I can take a two-week-long vacation and be with my favorite person.” He smiled sweetly at her.

“Ok. Should I go get my swimsuit on?”

“No. Just get naked.” Kris walked over to the hot tub and removed its cover.

Kris’ hot tube is always heated even though it is unused. It is so that it can be used anytime without waiting for it to heat up. Kris could pay for the bills so he always has the tub heat up and ready.

Kris entered the hot tub first and held his hand out for Lena.

“You weren’t serious on the naked part right?”

“No.”

“Okay…” Lena walked over and got into the tub with him. She immediately felt the warmth of the tub.

“Are you cold now?” Kris asked.

“No… I’m warm.”

Lena closed her eyes and enjoy the bubbles of the hot tub.

After a few minutes, she felt Kris kissing her neck.

“Kris…” Lena opened her eyes and then suddenly he kissed her lips.

Both of her hands were up, and touching his rough chest as he softly kissed her. This time, since they were not underwater, Kris took his time with her.
