Chapter 538 She Chased Him Away



"Look into my eyes and answer that...,"

"There is no need to do that because nothing you say will make me change my mind," Audrey cut in rudely.

"Leave while I am being very civilised. I don't even know what I will do to you if you keep making my Anna cry," Audrey said and slammed the door on him.

"Didn't she say Joan didn't want to see me so what did she mean by Joan was crying?" Amos mumbled.

He raised his hand and knocked on the door despite Audrey's warning.

His obstinate behaviours didn't come as a surprise to the two ladies who were inside the room.

They deemed ignoring him the best thing to do and that was exactly what they did.

Raymond called like he had promised but Audrey ended up answering the line since Joanna was too upset to talk to anyone at the moment.

Amos kept guard in front of Audrey's door for hours. He only left when there was no hope that the two friends would step out of their apartment that night.

Tonight he didn't go to the club which had become his favourite place after his misunderstanding with Joanna set in but he went to a different place.

At a well-furnished apartment whose walls were a mixture of grey and white, a man was seen switching off the lights in his room ready to retire for the night.

Unfortunately for him, his doorbell rang just after he had climbed onto his bed ready to fall asleep whenever sleep found him.

"Who could that be so late in the night?" The man who wasn't expecting any visitors grumbled as he climbed out of bed.

He made his way towards the door with a deep frown on his face.

At the door, he held the handle and pulled it open.

His frown eased up the instant he got a glimpse of the face of the man standing in front of his doorstep.

"W-w-what... are you doing here?" Mr Fin who hardly gets shocked stammered, unable to compose himself.

"Also, didn't we agree to keep a distance so as not to arouse people's suspicions so what are you....,"

"Isn't it very impolite to question your visitor at the door especially someone of my identity....,"

"You know this no time to crack jokes or...,"

"I made sure no one saw me when I came in, so will you stop being paranoid?" Amos hissed. He pushed Mr Fin aside and strolled into the spacious room.

"One would think you are Chris and Gideon's elder brother because of your naggy behaviour," Amos added.

Even though it was dark he navigated his way into the sitting room as if he were the owner of the house.

He moved to the white couch and sat down with his back leaning against it.I think you should take a look at

"I want to make sure that you are safe, is that wrong?" Mr Fin quizzed. He pressed the switches on the right wall and immediately the lights in the sitting room came on.

"Hmmm... not really but it gets a bit annoying if it becomes a constant thing," Amos replied without sugarcoating his words.

Although he said these words out loud Mr Fin acted as if he didn't hear him. He walked to the centre table and sat on the couch opposite him.

"So what are you doing here?" Mr Fin asked after he had taken his sweet time to study Amos.

"Is it wrong to visit my friend's home especially now that I have a bit of freedom?" Amos questioned. 

The way his eyes were all over the place further confirmed what Mr Fin had noticed when he studied Amos a while ago.

"Also, you are the one who always lectured Kyle about etiquettes so why is it that you are interrogating your guest? Isn't offering a visitor something to drink first the basic etiquette?" Amos added. He stood up from the couch and walked around the spacious room.

Yes, Mr Fin's room was tastefully furnished but none of the decor or furniture were extravagant.

The layout of his room and the decorations spoke so much about the kind of man he was.

"You, a visitor in my home?" Mr Fin chuckled, his gaze fixed on the guy who happens to be staring at a flower vase in front of him.

"You know the entire layout of my apartment and where everything is placed so why are you a visitor?" Mr Fin grumbled.

"Also, aren't you aware that you are the reason I haven't moved to a place with tight security?... I was afraid you would get caught on one of the occasions you try to sneak into my room....,"

"Hey, how could you say that? Is that how little you think of your friend, hmm?" Amos complained. He pretended to be upset.

"You shouldn't have brought up the topic that you were a visitor when you and I know the secret," Mr Fin replied, smiling.

"So what exactly brought you here?" Mr Fin asked a bit more seriously this time around.

"You and I know that you are not the type to visit me out of the blue except if you want to talk so quit with the act and behave more like your normal self," Mr Fin added. 

He kept his eyes fixed on the guy who was making his way back to the centre table.

"That is what I hate and love about you at the same time. You can see through me no matter how hard I try," Amos muttered. He sank into the white chair like an exhausted pregnant woman.

"What is bothering you this time?" Mr Fin demanded in a gentle tone.

"Finley...," Amos called. He raised his gaze and looked into Mr Fin's eyes.

"Is it possible to easily get rid of the feeling of love as one wishes?" Amos asked out of the blue.

"What!" Mr Fin who didn't expect such a question from him exclaimed with widened eyes.

"I am asking because I have tried to get rid of my feelings for her in the past but instead ended up falling deeper in love with her...," Amos let his words linger as he lowered his gaze.
