Unexpected Encounter: A Second Chance at Love-Chapter 185 An Unexpected Visit

"I am not gonna sit at home and relax when I know you are working hard out there. I want to work with you, beside you." She added, "We are a team, remember?" 𝐟𝐫𝗲𝙚ｗ𝚎𝐛𝙣𝐨𝙫𝘦𝗹.c૦m

When he nodded, Rachael said, "And besides, I love working. My father didn't send me to college so that I can just stay at home and do nothing for myself."

"Alright—" He looked at her. "But you are not allowed to work overtime. If you do, I'll cut down your paycheck to fifty percent."

"Really?" She raised her brows.

"Of course," he stated. "I am very strict when it comes to rules made by me."

"Shouldn't you be paying me more because I am your wife?"

"You are the lady boss babe," he remarked. "You have your own money, my money is also your money. You have shares in your father's company, you have shares in our company. You are rich."

"Oh please" Rachael scoffed. "My bank account is probably like a drop in the ocean in comparison to yours."

When he chuckled, she added, "You know when dad first told me that you are coming, Tina and Emma tried finding out more information about you and how you looked—"

"I didn't know you had stalker friends—" He interrupted her. 𝐟𝐫𝗲𝙚ｗ𝚎𝐛𝙣𝐨𝙫𝘦𝗹.c૦m

"It's not stalking." When he raised his eyebrows, she explained, "It's called collecting extra information about someone."

"Stalking," Andrew remarked.

When she rolled her eyes at him, he chuckled, "Alright, continue what you were saying."

"Yeah so when they took out your biodata, your net worth said unknown," she explained. "So according to Tina, when 'Unknown' is mentioned in front of a person's net worth it means that person is very very rich."

"That's right, I am very rich," Andrew shamelessly stated. "Tina's assumption is on point."

Rachael: " "

"Even if you shop all day and night for years, we will still be able to send both our kids to college even if we stop working," he added.

Rachael was about to say something when her phone on the bedside table started ringing.

"Hold on, it's mom." She received the call.

"Hey, mom—"

"Rachael, why didn't you tell us that Andrew's family will be visiting," Reeta couldn't help but scold her daughter.

"What? Who is visiting?" She frowned.

"Andrew's grandfather is here." Without waiting for her reply, Reeta added, "Your father and I were about to leave for a lunch party when he arrived. Thank God, we were still at home otherwise he would have to leave without meeting us."

"If you would have told me beforehand, I would have made better arrangements," she added.

Rachael pursed her lips and frowned before looking at Andrew.

? "What happened?" He inquired as he sat up straight.

"Your grandfather is in my house."

Keeping quiet for a while, he said, "Tell her that we are coming over."

"Mom, Andrew and I are coming home, okay?"

"Alright, I'll make dinner for you both as well then."

After hanging up the call, Rachael and Andrew quickly got ready and left.

"Come on Ben, you have to come with me."

"I—" Ben pursed his lips. He had already turned him down twice, he felt a little bad doing it for the third time.

Sensing his hesitation, Owen sighed in disappointment. "Why are you thinking so much? It's only a strip club. We are gonna have so much fun."

"Alright, I'll pay for your lap dance," he added.

Ben: " "

"I'll help you hook up with a hot woman."

Ben: " "

Owen kept trying to convince him while Ben silently listened to him.

"Seriously," Owen frowned. "What the fuck is wrong with you? Are you seriously turning down a free lap dance from a hot half naked woman?"

"No—I mean, I would have accompanied you but I have a lot of work to do—"

Taking the file from his hand, Owen tossed it aside. "You can complete it later and it's already five, office time is already over."

Without giving Ben a chance to make more excuses, he grabbed his arm and dragged him out of the room. "You are coming with me and we are gonna have a sexy boys night out."

Left with no other choice, Ben gave up and tagged along with Owen's wild plans.

"Mom, he is Andrew's maternal grandfather, right?" When Reeta nodded, George frowned, "I heard he isn't a nice person."

"George—" Reeta smacked his arm. "How many times do I have to tell you not to say inappropriate things about others, especially when they are around?"

"He is in the living room with dad, it's not like he can hear us," He shrugged his shoulders.

"Still—no matter if he is good or bad, he is your sister's in-law and we have to show him our respect," she remarked.

Keeping quiet for a while, he sighed, "I don't know mom, I am really not getting a very good feeling about him. He looks so sus—" He looked at his mother for validation. "Don't you think?"

Reeta did not say anything. She couldn't disagree with what George had just mentioned. She had heard many things about Andrew's maternal family. But since they were now her daughter's in-laws, she couldn't let all the negative feelings overpower her. She had to be nice and respectful to them as long as they didn't cause any trouble to her daughter or family.

When George was about to say something more, Reeta stopped him. "What are you doing in my kitchen? Shouldn't you be sitting outside with your father and the guest?"

"That's so boring, I don't wanna do that," he complained.

"You are no more a kid honey, go outside and accompany your father."

"But—" When Reeta gave him a look, he sighed and quietly walked out of the kitchen.

"I am sorry for noy greeting you yesterday at the funeral, I didn't know you were there too," Michael apologised.

"Oh you don't have to be so polite," Simeon smiled. "I decided to fly over at the last moment so no one knew I was coming. It was a sudden plan."
