The Billionaire 1&2

Chapter 11

It is already night time and Amber and Rafael is in the library, after they had their dinner, Rafael

showed her around the house. As she already knew which room is which on the first floor, Rafael made

her familiarize herself on the second floor.

There are three bedrooms in the second floor—the master’s bedroom, which is Rafa’s, and two guest

rooms. Then his study room, and there is even a theatre room and the wide library.

“Have you found something?” He asked.

“Yep.” Amber happily answered and showed him a book. “Since you’ve been gone by Carlene

Thompson.”

“Nice pick. My mom loves that book.” Rafael said.

“Really?” Her eyes grew wider in shock.

“Uh-huh. She read that countless of times.” Rafael answered.

“Then it must be a great book, then.” Amber said. “My mom also used to read this, but when I was

about to start reading it…” She sighed.

“Why? What happened?” He asked. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“My mom died.” She answered, sadness was visible on her lovely face. He waited for her to continue

talking but she remained quiet and stared at the book. He knew that there’s more to it but he doesn’t

want to ask his wife. He’ll wait until she’s ready to open herself to him, full. “By the way, where are your

parents?” Amber asked, changing the subject.

“They’re happily travelling around the globe.” Rafael shrugged. “The last time I heard from them,

they’re in Greece.” He said.

“Are you not in contact with them?” Amber asked frowning.

“I actually want to be in contact with them but they’re the ones who doesn’t want to be disturbed.”

Rafael sighed. “When they’re in Japan, I kept calling them every now and then to ask if they’re okay

because there’s a strong typhoon there, and my mom got pissed.” He said. “She told me that it’s okay if

I called them every now and then to ask if they’re okay but what is not okay is that to call them every 30

minutes.” He laughed.

Amber smiled upon hearing his story, he must really love and value his parents. And if he’s like that

then he can be a good father to their child.

“That is why I never got the chance to tell them that I got married.” He shrugged.

“They must be really happily inlove with each other.” She said.

“Yeah and I’m happy for them.” Rafael said as he stares on his wife’s innocent face. And I am hoping

that we can work out our marriage, but that would not happen if I don’t know who you really are. You

are too different when it comes to money… could it be that you’re hiding something?

“Rafa…” Amber called out his name.

“Hmmm?”

“Bake me some chocolate chips.” Amber orders making his jaw dropped.

“What?” He asked in shocked.

“I said, I want chocolate chips and you should bake some for me.” Amber said. “And don’t dare to ask

someone, I want you to bake it.”

“Fine.” Rafael sighed. “I guess, I should be thankful for my mom on forcing me to learn how to bake.”

Rafael said and pinched the tip of her nose.

“Hmm… I’ll help you.” Amber said with glistering eyes. He didn’t say no because she might throw a

tantrum.

“Then, let’s go.” He said and held her hand. “Do you want it sweet or not too sweet?” He asked when

they entered the kitchen.

“Not too sweet.” Amber answered.

“Do you need something, Maám, sir?” Dina asked, who just finished cleaning the kitchen.

“It’s okay, Dina. You can go and sleep.” Amber said. Dina nodded leave them on the kitchen.

“Hon, we don’t have enough ingredients.” Rafael said whose face can’t be read; he opened the

cabinets and drawers but still no avail.

“Is that so…” Amber said. “It’s okay, let’s just have it next time.” She added as she opens the

refrigerator to fine something to eat but to no avail. There are foods and snacks but she doesn’t want to

eat it yet.

“Do you want to go out and look for chocolate chips?” Rafael asked.

“No need, it’s already late.” She said as she opened the drawer and saw a chocolate syrup. She

grabbed it and an idea crossed her mind.

“Where will you use that?” Rafael asked frowning. She seducingly smiled and approached him.

“On you.” She whispered and bit his ear.

“Rafaaa!” Amber called her husband. “Is it still not cooked?” She asked. “I already emptied my plate.”

She acted like a child.

“What?” Rafael frowned. “The plate is full a moment ago.”

“I don’t know, when I checked it, it’s already empty.” She pouts.

“Who would eat it if it’s not you?” Rafael sighed. “This will be the last, so that we can take a rest

already.” Rafael said transferring the fries on her plate.

“Ehh, it’s delicious.” Amber reasoned out. “Yehey!” Amber exclaimed while clapping as Rafael place the

plate full of fries in front of her and immediately puts chocolate syrup on the fries.

“Where will you use that?” Rafael asked frowning. She seducingly smiled and approached him.

“On you.” She whispered and bit his ear.

“Amber!” He warned but his eyes were filled with desire.

“Haha.” Amber burst out laughing. “You and your naughty mind.” Amber said trying to stop her laughter.

“I suddenly want fries. Cook some for me.”

“I don’t know how to cook, amber.” Rafael sighed. “Besides, where will you use that syrup?”

“Jeez! Stop with the questions and start peeling the potatoes.” Amber said in annoyance.

“Watch your tone, wife!” Rafael warned.

“Aarrgh! Rafael, the baby wants fries!” Amber said with a high pitch making him sigh. Lesson number 1,

don’t argue with a pregnant woman.

“Fine.” He said and wash the potatoes and grabs the peeler. Upon seeing this, Amber smiled. She

grabs the knife and started slicing the potatoes he already peeled. “What now?” He asked making

Amber looked at him with questioning eyes. “I mean, what’s next?”

“Oh, yeah.” Amber said upon realization. She gets the frying pan and turned on the stove, then she

added the cooking oil when the pan is hot enough.

“I already put salt on it.” Rafael said when she’s about to put salt on the potatoes.

“Okay, thanks.” She smiled. “And now, fry the potatoes.” She said making Rafael groaned. “It’s okay,

it’s not like you’re going to burn the house down.” She added. Rafael had no choice but to put some

potatoes on the boiling oil.

“Here, drink your milk.” Rafael said and handed her the cup of milk when she finished eating the last

piece of fries. “Go and sleep, I’ll wash the dishes.” Rafael said when she finished drinking the milk.

“No, I’ll be the one to wash it.” Amber said. “You should be the one going to sleep, I know that you will

be early tomorrow.”

“Amber, it is bad—”

“Rafa, washing the dishes is not a hard task. Don’t worry too much, I will not endanger our child, okay?

I know my limitations. Please?” Amber said sternly, when Rafael didn’t answer, she grabbed the

chance to start washing the dishes.

“I’ll just help you then, if I can’t stop you.” Rafael sighed.

“Thank you.” Amber said and smiled. “Isn’t it nice to do this once in a while?” Amber said while washing

the plate with soap. “I am now thinking what you should cook next.”

“Amber!” Rafael sighed. “You’re already aware that I don’t know how to cook.”

“But you did cook earlier.” Amber said giving him the plate with soap.

“All I need is fried it, Amber.” Rafael said.

“well whatever! You can’t stop me from wanting to eat what you cook.” She said.

“I can burn down this house, you know.” He said. “And for your information, I nearly burned my parents’

house when I was young. Since then, my parents prohibited me from cooking.”

“Are you for real?” Amber’s eyes widened. “But you did a good job today, though.” She said.

“Should I thank you?” Rafael smiled.

“Nah! I didn’t do anything though.” She said, giving him the pan. And washed her hands. Rafael did the

finishing touches before drying his hands.

“You don’t need anything else?” He asked.

“None.” Amber answered and shook her head. “I’m fully satisfied now.” She grinned.

“So it was really you who wanted to eat fried potatoes?” His eyebrow arced.

“Oops! Busted.” Amber grinned. Rafael didn’t say anything and grab the chocolate syrup and not

forgetting the whipped cream on the counter. “Where are you going to use that?” She asked. Rafael

grinned seductively and approached her.

“I will use it on you.” He whispered and bit her ear. Amber gulped, she already knows that she’s

doomed.

This will be a very long night…
