Chapter 166: Couple hoodies
"Is this a date Mr. Knight?" she asked taking the seat and watching him walk to the other side pulling out a chair for himself and settling down.
"You can say so. I just thought to make our day memorable. Do you like the arrangements" he asked staring at her face as she bobbed her head like a kid.
" I love it" she answered happily.
Ashley was now used to Tristan’s romantic gesture. He was so full of surprises that he never failed to amaze her.
Soon the staff came with the food and served them. Both Tristan and Ashley were astounded tasting the Italian cuisine. Tristan was amazed at how the chef considered his words thoroughly before representing his dishes.
The couple enjoyed the food followed by some talks when Ashley excused herself to the restroom.
After getting fresh Ashley stepped out of the restroom with her attention on the handbag as she zipped it when she stumbled with one of the staff led the handbag in her hand fall.
"Oh... I am sorry" she said lifting her head but found no one around which surprised her.
She frown picking up her bag and looked back and forth. She had seen the helm of the uniform which was worn by the staff working here but now she couldn’t see anyone except her in the corridor which was quite surprising.
Brushing off her thoughts, Ashley took a step to walk when her eyes fell on the piece of paper on the floor.
’It must belong to the staff I stumble with’ she muttered and picked up the paper hoping to give it at the counter but when she looked her name on it she creased again.
"Why does it have my name on it," she said and read it.
"You seem to like your husband a lot but will you still love him if he happens to be someone way different from what he appears in front of you" she read the words inside the paper, falling into a deep thought.
This was the second time someone mentioned Tristan as her husband which was next of unexpected. Last night it was the man with the golden mask and now this letter.
’What does it mean she wondered.
Ashley didn’t think it was a prank or someone was trying to fool her because now she was sure someone was keeping a tab on her and Tristan’s movements or else why didn’t that someone ever appear when she was with Tristan?
It only meant that the unknown person knew something about Tristan that she was aware of.
Placing the letter inside her bag she returned to Tristan. Once she reach the spot Tristan approached her quickly," What took you so long?" he asked when he found she was away for quite a while.
When Ashley left, after some time Tristan received a call from Sky, the head of the security team informing him about a suspicious man whom they found sneaking out from the amusement park.
When the guard approached him, the man ran away confirming their doubts.
Ashley found Tristan’s behavior strange. Why was he so worried? she thought. Did he know she was in the restroom or... maybe he found something.
Tristan didn’t let her speak and just pulled her closer placing his lips on her forehead," Come let’s go" he said pulling back and they walked out of the restaurant.

Tristan’s men went on following the man until they lost his trace. He disappeared into thin air leaving them clueless about his departure.
"Boss we lost him" one of the assigned guards called Sky informing him about the man’s disappearance.
Sky was disappointed with the outcome and asked them to keep the search and informed Tristan about it.
Inside the car, Tristan’s eyes turned dark after he ended up talking with Sky. He did dare to look to the side because he didn’t want Ashley to sense his displeasure.
"Is everything okay?" Tristan closed his eyes when Ashley asked him.
"Nothing, just work-related stuff. Anyway, tell me which movie you would like to watch?" he asked changing the topic.
Since he decided to enjoy the day, Tristan didn’t want any external factors to affect their happiness.
Ashley saw the gloominess on his face weather and she leaned forward resting her head on his shoulder while warping her arms around his torso," Anything will do unless it doesn’t get me bored" she expressed.
Tristan kissed her head and they drove to the movie theater.

Karl drove Gwen to the Knight’s mansion. They had their breakfast before they left for shopping.
Now that they were dating, Karl thought Gwen would keep on staying at his place often, so it was better she would have her stuff already present at his home.
"I already have lots of clothes Karl. I would’ve shifted my entire wardrobe at your house" Gwen said looking at Karl.
"I know you have many designer clothes but I still want to buy things for you. So... will you please let me do it" he said completely rejecting her words and drove the car.
Soon they reach the mall and before Gwen could say a word, Karl dragged her inside.
He bought all the necessary things which he remembered Gwen used. He even knew which size of the garments she wore which came as a surprise for Gwen.
She never thought his roaming his hands all over her body meant he was taking note of her cup size. The thought of that passionate kiss from last night made her blush.
The way he cupped her breast and squeezed it lightly made her lose all her senses. She was turned on by his reflex that she wanted more.
’Oh god, what am I thinking’ she cupped her cheeks feeling the heat when the incident from the last night crossed her mind.
She quickly brushed off her thoughts and composed herself before resuming her shopping.
As she kept looking around her eyes fell on the matching hoodies which were customized for couples.
"Karl, I want that," she said pointing at the pink hoodies which had bunny faces on them. They were so girly which made Karl puke blood.
" Are you kidding me, Gwen? I am not going to wear them" Karl decline her request and was about to drag her away but failed when she folded her hand against her chest and fumed.
"Aren’t we here for my shopping then how can you reject my request? If you want me to use them" she said looking at the bags in his hand and then back at his face," Then you have to wear them for me" she then looked at the hoodies.
Gwen fell in love with the hoodie the moment she saw them. She wanted them to sync flaunting to everyone that they were couples but with Karl’s quick rejection she felt offended.
Karl could only watch her frown run deeper as she kept her gaze on him without blinking them. He knew Gwen would seriously never use the clothes he bought for her if he kept declining her.
Sighing in defeat, Karl nodded his head watching her frown clear in a second and a sweet smile appearing on her lips.
Gwen squealed like a kid and ran to buy a matching couple of hoodies. She not only purchase them but also made him wear them. Now they both were twining flaunting their relation openly.
Karl sighed in defeat. Though he objected to it at first but, after watching the smile on Gwen’s face he let go of his displeasure and smiled. Her smile was everything he wanted.

Noah sat on his chair retrieving Natalie’s schedule for the day. Since Tristan had given him a task he wanted to finish it off before Alice returned. Quickly getting her schedule he then started to plan a strategy for approaching her.
Natalie was a spoiled brat and spend most of her time partying and clubbing. He remembered one night when he stumbled on her, she was so drunk that she didn’t even know what she was doing.
Maybe she was high on any substance that made her act wild. She had literally jumped on him but he was lucky enough to run out from her claws.
Noah looked into her schedule and found she was again attending a party tonight which he thought to be the best way of getting to her. He wanted to befriend her and gather as much information as possible.
Making a note Noah called the owner of the club where Natalie was supposed to come. Low point club belonged to one of Noah’s friends and it didn’t take him long to know at what time the party was about to take place.
By the time he was done organizing, it was already evening. He then looked at his phone and opened it. A smile appeared on his lips when he saw Alice’s wallpaper on it.
"You ask me to miss you but you are the one who isn’t missing me" Noah talked to the photo hoping he would hear something back from her. But all he got was silence.
"Sigh... I know you must be busy but can’t you once call me" he complains like a child who was ignored by his mother the entire day.
Noah pursed his lips and kept his phone back on the table before he completely loses his mind and end up talking to the photo hoping it would talk back.
Since he had work to finish off he quickly went to take shower and got ready to leave, hoping to get his job done as quickly as possible.
