Chapter 221 - Simple Provincial Life
They have snacks, lunch, and dinner. Somehow, Tracey learned other things. Like clearing up the weeds from the garden. It felt therapeutic. Maybe she should help their gardener too. She also learned to cook a few dishes with limited ingredients and she didn't mind eating rice all the time. This is survival. Tracey needed to learn more about this chore.
"You are doing well," Ian said and stretched his arms. "Let's take a shower and sleep. We can eat later."
She followed her boyfriend. They take a shower together, get naked and start making love quickly on the squeaking bed. She was afraid that it might break. She remembered their hot night in his cabin. She grinned while thinking about it. Ian was currently busy eating her out between her legs.
"Hmm," She caressed his hair. "Do you remember when we made love after I almost got killed?"
He stopped and lifted his face.
"Babe, are we going to have a conversation or make love?'
"We broke the bed because you were too horny." She giggled and that also made him laugh.
"I can't believe you were talking about that." He continued with her sensitive part and once she's wet enough, he reached the condom and slid it in. She gaped and still smiled at him.
"Make me scream."
She screamed aloud when he was ramming on her in a butterfly position. She looked so blissful after it while becoming busy throwing the condom. She closed her eyes to sleep but then, he tapped her.
"We aren't done."
"No more." She mumbled. "No more, Ian."
He laughed and kissed her lips. He roamed around the house and locked each door and made sure that he put the chains on. He yawned and went back to the bed and snuggled to her. He stared at the air conditioner and lowered the temperature to make it colder.
"Trace,"
"Hmm?" She turned her head to his face. Their noses are touching and he moves closer to kiss her lips.
"We can live like this."
"Yes, we can. But how about my business? My mom also needs me in the company."
He carefully caressed her hair and touched his nose to hers.
"Yeah, you always have that responsibility. How about your father?"
"He's somewhere in Italy." She exhaled. "Probably leaving the cases that he got here."
"It was chaotic in the city right now. Let's stay here for a while."
"Yeah, sure." She caressed his face and closed her eyes. "I'm going to sleep."
"But I want another one maybe after thirty minutes? I need to recover first." He yawned.
Before they even finished their conversation, the couple fell asleep.

Currently, Victor was staring at the familiar photo of a couple. The female was his target. It was always reminded of Wendy Charles. Somehow, his mind got tired of it and he slept more than ten hours every night. They didn't mind him sleeping for that long since all of his cells were still working on healing a few parts of his body.
"So, have you printed her face in your head?" Wendy asked as she sat down gracefully and gave him freshly squeezed fruits. He accepted it.
"Yes. This is an auto memory brain." He said.
"I heard that you have a photographic memory. That's quite amazing." Wendy grinned and then, she turned on the television. She frowned after seeing two girls who were interviewed and provided evidence that Keira Del Carlo was being slandered by those people her brother hired. She stood and threw her wine glass on the floor. "Call Ken, now!" She screamed aloud.
Victor stared at the television and instead of seeing Keira Del Carlo's conference three months ago, he was focused on the secretary that was assisting her. He wanted to go there and checked that lady. She looked so familiar to him. However, he was distracted when Wendy started demanding to find Tracey quickly so they could get rid of Keira Del Carlo. Kennedy was trying hard to calm her and had even slapped her hard.
He wasn't surprised.
"If you don't gather yourself, our Empire will fall with you!" Kennedy shouted at Wendy after acting like a spoiled brat. "Didn't you know that dad died because of you? Your mother even died because of your selfishness. What if Grandpa died because of those demands again? I will kill you myself if that happens. I can't let someone like you hold this Empire."
Wendy was still shocked after being hit by her brother. She was spoiled by them but this is the first time that Ken hit her.
"Keira Del Carlo isn't something that we should take lightly if you want her dead." Ken hit her that hard. He wished that she would wake up from her fantasy. "Also, Alessandro De Alegre despised you. If you kept acting like this again, you'll be sorry."
He turned back and left. Wendy held her head and smacked it hard.
"No!" She screamed. "He didn't despise me." She mumbled to herself. "I know that he loves me."
That time, Victor woke up in reality. The person in front of him had a serious mental illness. It can't be cured easily. It can't be cured unless she had it collected in her head. Somehow, he also felt pity towards her. But for him, it's also in the head. He can't pity someone who wants to kill everyone who goes on her way.

Keira finally met the two friends that she helped back there. They were loyal to her and truthful to her. They still want to go back to their job but Keira had them offered somewhere else. She also wanted to help them go abroad since the two were living paychecks to paychecks. The truth was, they also helped Keira so much by covering her on their shift when her mother was taken to the hospital many times.
"I can't believe that you are this rich!" Clarisse exclaimed.
"Not to mention that she has a super hot husband." Miriam grinned at her.
Keira laughed and glanced at Alessandro who was currently speaking with Connor on the other side.
"He's too lucky because he has me." She joked but for Alessandro, it was nothing but the truth. "He always spoiled me, like before."
"I want to hear your love story with him!"
Keira giggled and it started when they were young to teenagers until that incident. She explained to them that helping her in this situation will put them in great danger. So, instead of that. She will have them sent out abroad for free. They could study anything they wanted and the two turned her down. But still, that can wait. She's sure that they can't still leave the country right away.
"If you want to have your passport, just tell me. I will have it processed quickly."
"Keira," Clarisse said and pursed her lips. "You helped us a lot and we wanted to help you too. The manager at that time also spoke out about it. They suspended them after they learned about it."
"I'm glad to hear that. But I think they are only doing it to survive in this cruel world." Keira said. But as she thought of those suffering, she learned that she was too innocent and easily got scammed by them. Today is different. She's Keira Del Carlo-De Alegre. She's full and she has her memories back. She wouldn't let them bully her again. "I think working here would still be a little hassle for the two of you."
"What do you mean?" Miriam asked.
"Take a long vacation. I will pay for your vacation with pocket money. How about the resort in Palawan. My friend owns a certain resort, the two of you should stay there."
Miriam and Clarisse looked at each other. They didn't expect that Keira would do that.
"Why won't we go shopping now?" She stood quickly. "Buy swimsuits and all?"
"Keira, that's too much. We didn't come here for that."
"I'm sorry guys. But I can't let you turn me down like this again."
She insisted on them. The trio went on shopping as Keira bought them swimsuits and dresses, also shoes. The two were too surprised that Keira just pointed few things and gave them to them. They thought of her as a magician.
"Keira," Miriam reached her hand. "I think this is too much."
"It's not too much." Keira smiled at them. "I'm sorry that I didn't get to say goodbye at that time. Lots of things happened and I have to regain my memories with my husband."
"It's fine." Clarisse giggled. "You gave us enough. It's already late so we should go. Besides, your husband is still waiting."
Keira turned around to see her husband speaking with the securities.
"I will have my driver drive you back to your apartments."
Keira said goodbye and her smile faded. She clenched her fist and turned to her husband.
"If Wendy goes after them, I don't have a choice but to end this."
Sandro reached her face and hugged her as he kissed her forehead. She started sobbing and holding his coat to cover her face.
"Hush, I'm sorry that this has to happen."
Keira can't bear anything if those two friends who were loyal to her suddenly become Wendy's target. She might not be able to forgive herself for that.
