Chapter 716 Red And Lacy
"I was beginning to think you were going to sleep in there. Why did you take so long?" Jade asked with a pout.
"Because I love to take my time to clean up," Harry said and Jade rolled her eyes.
"What's there to spend so much time in cleaning up? It's not like you're a lady, and even I don't take that long in the bathroom. How are we going to share the bathroom use when we get married and we have to be somewhere?" She asked and Harry raised a brow.
"Apart from the fact that there will be multiple bathrooms in the house, I don't see why we need to shower separately," Harry said and Jade looked at him with an amused expression.
"You would want to share the shower with me?" She asked and he gave her a nod.
"I don't se why not. Why? Don't tell me you will be too shy to do that," he said and she giggled.
"Well, I haven't exactly done that before," she said with a shrug.
"Really?" Harry asked with a pleased smile, glad to know it would be a first for her.
"Yeah."
"Well, good thing I haven't done it either, so we will do it together," Harry said and Jade grinned.
Whether or not he knew it yet, she planned to do that with him before they returned to Ludus.
"Are you feeling very tired?" She asked, and he raised a brow.
"Not exactly. Why?"
"Well, I figured we could take a stroll around the neighborhood if you're not feeling too exhausted from the flight," she said and he grinned.
"I guess you're ready to fulfil your four years old promise now," he said and she nodded.
"Yes, I am. It's long overdue already," she said and Harry shrugged.
"Let's do it then," he said and she flashed him a brilliant smile.
"Great! So, about you have something to eat first and then we take the stroll?" She asked just as a knock sounded on the door.
"That should be your lunch," she said as she went to get the door.
Harry watched as she received a tray from the housekeeper and he raised a brow after she shut the door, "I could have gone downstairs for lunch," he said as he watched her take the tray to the bed.
"So, that you can chat with Tom and the others? I don't think so. After I've had you to myself today, you can do whatever else you want tomorrow," Jade said and Harry shook his head in amusement as he returned to the bathroom to hang the towel on the rail.
After he returned to the bed and sat down, Jade sat with him and watched with interest as he ate, "By the way, how is Candace doing?" She asked and he raised a brow.
"She's okay. Why?" He asked as she shrugged.
"She was pretty upset the last time. I wonder if she has resolved things with Matt," Jade said and Harry nodded.
"Judging by the way she has been smiling lately, I believe they have," Harry said and Jade grinned.
"That's cool," she said and Harry looked at her with interest.
"So, how has things really been around here with everyone? How is your dad doing? He didn't look so good earlier," Harry asked and Jade sighed.
"Well, I suppose it's been an emotional whirlwind for him. Being on bad terms with his father, suddenly losing his father, learning his father was involved with a much younger lady and he has a three years old kid sister. That's a lot for anyone to take in," Jade said and Harry nodded.
"Have you tried speaking with him privately? Comforting him?" He asked and Jade shook her head.
"Not exactly. If he's not with the whole family eating or having a meeting, he usually wants to be left alone," she said and Harry nodded.
"That's understandable. Still, you should try to spend some time with him. I think having you around will make him feel better exactly the same way you make me feel better," he said and she grinned.
"Well, I have that effect on you because I'm your girlfriend. His wife is probably what he needs not me," she said and Harry smiled.
"He needs you too. You are his daughter. You have a special place in his heart," Harry said and Jade shrugged.
"I guess I can't help it that I'm so special to everyone," she said with a proud smile and Harry laughed as he focused his attention on his food.
Jade reached for her phone when it started ringing and she received the call when she saw it was from the store she had placed an online order.
She listened for a moment and then smiled as she hung up, "Give me a moment, Jonas. I need to take care of something downstairs," Jade said as she quickly rose and headed for the door.
Her orders had arrived and she needed to be as discreet as possible in picking it up. She didn't want anyone else receiving it on her behalf and bringing it to her in the presence of Harry since she definitely didn't want Harry seeing it yet.
Thankfully, even though it was still afternoon, the house was quiet and it seemed like everyone was in their bedrooms, so she hurried down the stairs and went outside to receive her package.
Immediately after receiving it, she went to the spare guest room downstairs and tore the box open. She grinned when she saw the vibrator as well as the sexy red lingerie set she had bought.
She had made sure the lingerie was revealing enough and left nothing to the imagination. She intended to see just how much self control Harry had, and how he would manage with her body pressed against his all night.
After contemplating for a minute she dialed Sonia's line, "Hey, Sony! Do you have a moment?" She asked immediately Sonia received the call.
"Sure. What's up?" Sonia asked, surprised that Jade was calling when they were under the same roof.
"I need your help with something. Can you meet me in the guest room downstairs? It won't take long," she promised.
"Sure. Be right there," Sonia said as she hung up and then turned to Bryan who had been sleeping beside her before the call woke him up.
"Jade wants to see me. I will be back soon," Sonia said as she kissed his cheek, and Bryan gave her a nod as he adjusted his pillow so he could go back to sleep as she left.
Two minutes later, Sonia knocked on the door and Jade opened it to let her in, and shut the door behind her.
"What is…" Sonia grinned when her eyes fell on the items on the bed.
"Don't tell me you got me that to spice up my sex life with Bryan," Sonia said as she drew closer to the bed and Jade rolled her eyes.
"It's for me, not for you," Jade said as they both sat on the bed.
"For you? Don't tell me you're planning to seduce Harry when he comes for the funeral," Sonia said and Jade raised a brow.
"You are not aware that Harry is here now? He arrived a while ago," Jade said, and Sonia looked at her with interest.
"Really? We were taking a nap. I guess that's why we didn't know. So, you plan to seduce him?" Sonia asked and Jade shrugged.
"Yeah. I called you over because I can't take this to the room. I'm going to go out with Harry soon, when we leave, I want you to help me plant this in my room," Jade said raising the vibrator.
"Not in the box. I don't want him to think it's new. I want it to be lying around somewhere he can easily see it," Jade said and Sonia giggled.
"Want to give him the impression you've been satisfying yourself?" She asked and Jade smiled.
"I don't see why not as long as it makes him jealous and causes him to take action. I just want to see his reaction," Jade said and Sonia nodded.
"Alright. I got you. So, all you want me to do is plant this somewhere he can see it," she said and Jade nodded.
"Yeah. And you can put the lingerie in my drawer," Jade said as she tore out the tag on it.
"You must be desperate to get Harry's D," Sonia said with a grin and Jade giggled.
"Well, it's not exactly about the sex. It's more about getting him to want to do it. I don't want him to have such a strong will when it comes to me. I should be able to have that much control over his body as his girlfriend," Jade said reasonably, and Sonia nodded.
"I get what you mean. You want to be irresistible to him. It makes sense," Sonia said and then Jade bit her lower lip when she recalled what Harry had said about her not divulging information about their bedroom activities to anyone.
"You've got to keep this between us, okay?" She said and Sonia nodded as she made a zip gesture on her lips.
"Sure. Give me a flash call ten minutes after you both leave the house so I can go do it," Sonia said as she picked up the items and placed them back in the box.
"Wait, you can't take it to your bedroom. Bryan is going to see it," Jade pointed out.
"Don't worry. He won't. It's safer I take it upstairs than I leave it here. Everyone is going to wonder what it is when they see me taking it from here to your room later. So it's best I take it upstairs now that everyone else seems occupied," Sonia said and Jade paused her lips.
"Why don't you wait here while I go get Harry out of the room right now? Then you can just head directly for my bedroom from here?" Jade suggested, and Sonia shrugged.
"That works too. Hurry up then before Bryan decides to come down to find me," Sonia said and Jade quickly left the room.
Harry raised a brow when Jade returned to the room, "For someone who didn't seem to want me out of her sight, I'm surprised you were away for so long," Harry said and she smiled.
"Sorry, I had to take care of a little business with Sonia. She was so excited to know Candace came with you. Since you're done eating, why don't we step out now?" Jade suggested and Harry shrugged as he rose and picked up the tray.
"Sure," he said and stepped aside when she reached for the tray.
"I will take it down myself. I know my way around here," he said as he looked her over.
"Why don't you change your clothes," he suggested, reminding Jade that she was still wearing the oversized tshirt she had slept in earlier.
"Oh, sure! Alright. I will be quick so I can meet you downstairs," Jade said and watched as he left with the tray.
Immediately he left, she called Sonia to come upstairs with the box and she quickly changed out of her clothes as she waited for Sonia to show up.
As Harry made his way down the stairs, Sonia who was coming up with the box, stopped and pretended to be surprised to see him, "Oh, my God! Harry! When did you get here?" Sonia asked and Harry raised a brow at her unusual excitement to see him since they weren't that close.
And why was she acting so surprised to see him when Jade had made it clear that Sonia was aware that he was around?
"A while ago. How are you doing?" Harry asked as he looked at the box she was carrying and saw something red and lacy hanging out at the side.
"I'm great! It's good to see you," Sonia said, and remained where she stood smiling at him while Harry wondered what he was supposed to say next.
"Same here. I should get going. Need to take these to the kitchen," Harry said and Sonia flashed him a smile as she watched him walk away before continuing up the stairs to go join Sonia.
Harry narrowed his eyes as he headed for the kitchen and he couldn't help wondering why Sonia had acted so suspiciously.
"Harry, I was just thinking about you," Evelyn said as she stepped out of the kitchen carrying a bowl of cookies for Dawn who was in the Den with Desmond.
"A pleasant thought I hope?" He said, and Evelyn smiled as she signalled to one of the housekeepers to take the tray from Harry.
"Of course. I was just wondering why your family had to stay at the hotel when they're here because of us. Why don't you have them come over? There is room for them here," Evelyn suggested.
"I don't think they would want to put you through that stress…"
"It's no stress at all. I know the girls would be happy to have Candace here with them before she leaves for Sogal. And I'd love nothing more than to have my Jamal here. Besides, Dawn could use the company of a kid like her, and your dad's company might be just what Desmond needs right now," Evelyn said reasonably, and although Harry wanted to argue, he could understand her reason.
And he knew very well that Jamal would be happy to spend some time with Tom and Lucy under the same roof before leaving since he had kept asking when he would get to see them.
"Are you sure about that? They will have to be here until after the funeral," Harry explained and Evelyn smiled.
"Your family is our family too. If it's okay with you, please speak with them about it so they can get ready to move. I will have the driver go pick them. I suppose they're at the reserved suite at the hotel?" Evelyn asked referring to I-Global hotel, since there was always a reserved suite for the family there.
"Alright, I will discuss with them and have the hotel chauffeur bring them over," Harry said and Evelyn patted his arm fondly.
"That's good. You have no idea how happy I am that you're here. I need to get back to the Den to see how Desmond and the kid are doing," Evelyn said before walking away, leaving Harry.
Once she left, Harry dialed his father's line to inform him of his discussion with Evelyn, and while Jamal was excited about the move, Candace wasn't.
She knew it was going to interfere with her plans with Matt.
