Chapter 336 - Amaxi!

"No, Johnson..." Samantha said as she turned around in his arms and looked at him. 

Johnson looked into her eyes as he sighed.

"No, Johnson." Samantha said again as she cupped his face. 

"Baby..." Johnson tried to talk but Samantha cut him off in mid-sentence. 

"Caffeine by Amaxi is getting loss because of what Xavier did and the renovation is totally messed up right now. It's fine... I am trying my best but still... It will be hard for Amaxi to cope up with things... The deals which we accepted are not leaving us right now is because of you and your name. They are sure that you will help me in any way if Amaxi gets down... So, they are not at all trying to leave the deals. I know everything. But still, I kept my mouth shut in front of them... I really don't want to take your help... Because Caffeine by Amaxi got up into the heights just because of hard work without anyone's help... If I succeed for the first time to bring Caffeine by Amaxi into heights without anyone's help then, I can now too... I can do it now too! I have that faith in Caffeine by Amaxi Hotels." Samantha said looking directly into Johnson's eyes. 

"I know..." Johnson replied as he kissed Samantha's forehead. 

"I know you can do this but just once... Let me try it... I can't see you stressed about this... Even if Caffeine by Amax Hotels was about to fall down, I will be with you to raise it again... Together! I will support you in every way I can... Because I know, how important Amaxi is for you! I know, you will never let Amaxi get down... And it just until the renovation is done and after that Amaxi will be back to normal. But... Please... Only once..." Johnson requested and Samantha shook her head in No.

"No, Johnson... Let me try my best first and later if I can't do it... I will let you know... You can help me at that time... Please understand me." Samantha replied making Johnson sigh.

"Fine... If you say so... But, if I see you so stressed about this and getting worried then, I will do something before you even try to tell me anything!" Johnson said making Samantha chuckle.

"Yes... I will leave it to you at that time... You can do whatever feels good for you! I am not going to say no to you!" Samantha replied and Johnson hugged her making Samantha hug him back. 

"I am so proud of you!" Johnson said making Samantha chuckle again.

"I still didn't do anything to make you proud!" Samantha replied and Johnson looked at her as he shook his head.

"You did a lot... You did so much... You are just awesome in every way. You aren't asking for even your husband's help in your business." Johnson said and Samantha smiled.

"Amaxi is still stable, Johnson... But... Just in the loss... Nothing to worry about! It will come around as soon as the Hotels is done with the renovations. In this, I am not doing anything... It's you, who needs to hand over my hotels as soon as possible to me. So, my Amaxi can rise again to heights!" Samantha replied and Johnson nodded his head as he took her hands in his hands.

"I will hand your hotels back to you soon! Very soon!" Johnson said and Samantha nodded her head in yes with a smile.

"So... Did you talk with Alexi?" Johnson asked and Samantha shook her head in no.

"No, she might be busy with Martin... I don't want to disturb her." Samantha answered.

"Ohh... But it's past 11... Maybe they are up... Let me call Martin!" Johnson said and Samantha looked at him.

"Why? Let them enjoy. They went out for a date yesterday... They will be fine..." Samantha replied making Johnson sigh and Samantha raised her eyebrows at him as he sighed. 

"Huh? Is there something I need to know?" Samantha asked and Johnson just kept staring at her. 

"What is it?" Samantha asked and Johnson shrugged as he sat down on the couch. 

"Can I get a coffee?" Johnson asked and Samantha nodded her head in yes. She started making coffee while Johnson started thinking to himself if he should tell to Samantha about Martin's proposal or not. 

Samantha kept staring at Johnson as he started thinking fo himself. She frowned but didn't talk anything. She grabbed the coffee mugs and walked towards him. 

Samantha forwarded the coffee mug to Johnson and he took it from her. 

"Thank you!" Johnson said and Samantha nodded her head as she sat beside Johnson. 

"What's going on in your head?" Samantha asked and Johnson looked at her.

"I don't want to keep this from you but I am not sure if I should tell you about this or not!" Johnson answered making Samantha frown.

"What are you talking about, Johnson?" Samantha asked as Johnson sipped on his coffee.

"What is that you don't want to keep away from me but not sure if you should tell me or not?" Samantha asked making Johnson sigh.

"Maybe... Alexi will tell you later on..." Johnson said making Samantha frown.

"What? What is going on?" Samantha asked and Johnson shrugged?

"Johnson... Tell me..." Samantha said and Johnson turned towards her.

"Tell me, please... Don't scare me." Samantha said and Johnson sighed.

"Fine..." Johnson replied making Samantha nodded and she looked at him.

"Martin wanted to propose Alexi!" Johnson said making Samantha's eyes widened.

"What?" Samantha shouted.

"Umm... Yeah!" Johnson replied.

"What? I... I have no words." Samantha said and Johnson nodded his head.

"I was same like you stunned when he said that!" Johnson replied.

"So, that means... Martin took her on a date last night because he wants to propose Alexi?" Samantha asked and Johnson nodded his head in yes.

"Yes!" Johnson answered.

"Oh my god!" Samantha replied as she got up from the couch.

"Samantha..." Johnson called as she grabbed her phone.

"Who are you trying to call?" Johnson asked as he got up from the couch and walked towards her. 

"Who else? Alexi." Samantha answered.

"Wait... Please!" Johnson said as he grabbed her phone and Samantha frowned at him.

"Johnson... Are you crazy? Do you know what might happen... Heck, I don't know what happened? He proposed her already?" Samantha asked and Johnson shrugged.

"I don't know..." Johnson answered making Samantha sigh.

"Return my phone to me... Let me call Alexi..." Samantha said making Johnson look at her.

"Samantha... Wait... Let's talk first..." Samantha cut off Johnson in mid-sentence.

"There is nothing to talk about, Johnson..." Samantha replied making Johnson look at her.

"There is... Please." Johnson said making Samantha sigh.

"Fine... Alright! Tell me... What is it?" Samantha asked.

"Try to understand... Please... I am sure, Martin proposed Alexi last night..." Samantha cut off Johnson in mid-sentence.

"And I am sure, Alexi rejected him." Samantha replied.

"How can you be sure? If she rejected then she would have come home... But she didn't..." Johnson said making Samantha frown.

"What do you mean?" Samantha asked.

"I... I mean, maybe... Alexi accepted..." Johnson answered making Samantha chuckle.

"Are you serious?" Samantha asked as she laughed.

"Yeah..." Johnson answered and Samantha shook her head in no.

"She and Mom fought about this on our holiday... She said, she is not going to marry this soon... She wants to concentrate on her career first..." Samantha said making Johnson take a deep breath. 

"Samantha, Martin will never stop Alexi from what she loves to do... He will not stop her. Ever!" Johnson replied.

"I know, Johnson... But you know right... Alexi and Martin are still young to get married. Even if Alexi accepted Martin, no one will accept them to marry each other right now... Because it just been only 1 month since they started dating... They are not like us, Johnson." Samantha said and Johnson nodded his head.

"I know..." Johnson replied as he walked close towards her.

"But... Maybe... Alexi might have accepted because she loves him and he loves her... They are young but they are mature enough to know what they are doing!" Johnson said making Samantha sigh. 

"So, what are you trying to tell me right now?" Samantha asked and Johnson cupped her face.

"Leave them alone... It's their wish if they want to marry each other or not. We don't have any right to tell them anything... Martin already thought of everything... He is not going to be sad if Alexi rejects him... I would not have told you anything but I want to tell you because I don't want to keep anything away from you..." Johnson said making Samantha sigh.

"When do you know about this?" Samantha asked.

"He just told me yesterday morning that he is going to propose to her." Johnson answered.

"Who else knows about this?" Samantha asked.

"None except me, Mom and Dad." Johnson answered. 

"They are not going to feel bad if Alexi rejects Martin right?" Samantha asked.

"Why will they, Love? They know that it's just been a month since they started dating and they very well know that Alexi wants to concentrate on her career first and later... She will think of anything of this." Johnson answered making Samantha sigh.

"I don't know..." Samantha said as she stepped back.

"It's fine... Don't worry... Everything will alright!" Johnson replied and Samantha nodded her head.
