Betrayed By Husband, Stolen By Brother In Law-Chapter 95: Sleeping

Melanie opened her eyes blearily and almost jumped in fright as she saw a face looking down at her. For a moment, she wondered if she was dreaming, but then she slowly moved her hand and poked at his leg. Nope. Adam was real.

And he was sitting here in her hotel room at... She patted the bed, looked around for her phone, found it, and then checked the time. Ahh... yep. Adam Collins was in her room at 3:00 a.m. The question was why and how did he get here?

"How did you get here?" she asked, her voice still groggy. "And what are you doing in my room?"

Adam looked at her as if she had the IQ of a goldfish and said, "That should be obvious. I'm looking at you — sleeping."

Melanie sat up and was about to stand when her world tilted on its axis. She paused, let her head drop for a moment, and took a breath to steady herself.

Then, slowly, she raised her head again and glared at him. "I meant how did you get here?"

Adam rolled his eyes. "I teleported here, of course."

Melanie shot him a warning look, her gaze promising him retribution even if it killed her. Adam laughed and raised his hands in surrender. "Okay, okay. How did I get here? I rode to the city, okay? And how did I get in here? I've told you a hundred times, Melon, that..."

"No locks can keep you out if you want to come in," Melanie completed his sentence for him.

"See?" Adam grinned. "You do listen to me."

"Unfortunately," she muttered, swinging her legs over the edge of the bed. "Now, if you don't start talking," she warned, "I'm going to kick you out the window."

Melanie stood, braced herself to remain on her feet until the dizziness faded and tried to look around. She had no idea which way was the washroom. She was too hungover. "Yeah, yeah. I'll tell you." Adam said with a grin. "But first, you might want to drink some of that hangover medicine before you faceplant."

He reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out a small bottle of medicine, twisted the cap and extended it to her. "I came because I read those stupid rumors on social media. Wanted to make sure you were okay."

Melanie paused and gave him a suspicious look. She could never get herself used to his serious statements. Somehow, she always felt that he was talking in circles when he did that. So, she raised a brow and asked sarcastically, "Really? You care about me?"

Adam's mouth curled into a boyish grin as he caught her chin and lightly rubbed it as if petting a cat ann he said,"Of course I do."

Melanie snorted softly but took the medicine from his hand and drank it down in one gulp. "Well, thanks for worrying. But I'm fine."

"You are? Then why did you drink so much?" Adam asked her.

Melanie rolled her eyes and stood up," I did drink. But I had the bartender water down the drinks before he brought them to me. So, I am okay."

Adam tilted his head, studying her carefully. "You are really not worried about the rumors. You have a plan," he said knowingly, making it a statement instead of a question.

Melanie smiled, "I think I do. It's quite a coincidence. But, we'll know if it works tomorrow."

"Great," Adam groane as he glared at her, "And here I was, hoping I'd get to be your knight in shining armor. I was going to try and offer you my protection!"

Melanie rolled her eyes and walked towards the washroom but not before saying, "Don't worry about me. I don't need any knights- armoured or otherwise. I can take care of myself. Added to that, we are going to go our separate ways in a few years after you have claimed the inheritance so you are not responsible for protecting me."

As she said this, she closed the door behind her, thus missing out the way Adam's mouth curled up. Instead, he stretched out on the bed lazily, as if he were a big cat and muttered to himself, "Sigh. Melon. It will take time but you will one day learn... once you belong to me... you will always be mine... And I will be yours. There is no separation in our future."

Taking out his phone, uncaring of the time, he made a call to Max, who was still working and said, "Don't take down the trending searches for now," before disconnecting the call.

Max glared at the phone, which now emitted a single beep, and almost stomped his foot in frustration. First, this man had dragged him out of bed at midnight because he wanted to suppress the news and have the public relations team handle it quietly. Now, after working for three exhausting hours to manage the situation, Adam suddenly wanted them to do nothing!

"Adam Collins is ruthless," Max muttered darkly. "And worst of all... he's ruthless to me. His one and only friend."

While Adam was being cursed at Melanie stepped out of the restroom and once agian glared at Adam," Why are you still here?"

Adam raised an eyebrow at that," Where should I go at this hour then? The reception told me that they did not have any spare rooms and I came all the way here for you. So you definitely won't make me sleep on my bike right?"

Melanie stared at his face as he tried to make the puppy dog eyes and shook her head,"Fine fine! Sleep here. I am alwready awake anyway so its okay. I'll just do some work for tomorrow's preparation."

Adam grinned and blew a kiss to Melanie as he said," That is like my sweet melon. I knew you missed me and liked me too much to let me suffer. I have the best wife in the world..."
