Chapter 101
“I bet Arusha must have unnerved you” Ethan smiled.
“Yeah” Irish agreed.
She’s worried about him though, she has seen blood seep out of his nose and she really hope he’ll be fine.
“You’re worried about him right?” Ethan asked and she nodded.
“He’ll be fine, he’s as strong as i am” Ethan showed off his muscles and Irish laughed.
She touched his muscles and her hand could barely cover it firmly.
“Geez!” She sighed.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
“You must be working out real well” She added.
“Not really” Ethan shrugged.
“I must look like an ant compared to you” She sighed and rolled her eyes.
Ethan laughed…”I love it that way, it makes me feel the urge to protect you”
“Woah” Irish blushed.
“I think I’m gonna be breaking a rule now” Ethan said and didn’t give Irish to ask what rule it is before placing his lips on hers.
It lingered for a moment, she didn’t push him away and she was too stunned to return the kiss.
“I’m sorry, couldn’t resist” Ethan muttered against her lips and deepened the kiss.
He had wanted to be gentle but his hormones got the better part of him.
Irish kissed him back as fiercely as he did and they both bursted into laughter when they stopped to catch their breath.

Arusha’s nose already stopped bleeding before Doc Luc walked into his room.
He had washed his face and pulled off his T-shirt to clean and stop the blood from his nose.
“Hi Doc Luc” He said.
“Arusha, how are you? I can see you are not fine though. Let’s get you treated first” Doc Luc said, he had come with a young nurse who stared at Arusha’s chest in lust.
He was pissed to have offended Irish but he didn’t feel a bit remorse about what had happened between him and Jessica.
“Your cuts are little, compared to that of Jessica, her jaw is bruised and broken glasses hadbruised her palm and foot, it’s pretty serious, she’ll have to limp for a couple of days” Doc Luc said and Arusha felt sorry for her.
He hadn’t mean to hit her back but he had been so furious, he can’t seem to control himself when it comes to Irish.
He knew he was responsible for the bruise on her jaw but definitely not the one on her palm and foot.
He still felt sorry for her though..
Doc Luc didn’t waste time in attending to his wounds, he gave him some meds after that and left him to rest.
Jessica was asleep by then and her room has been cleaned.
Arusha laid on his bed and stared at the ceiling.
He hadn’t thought any of this would happen.
He hadn’t even expected anything close to it , he was still surprised Jessica was the one Arin always told him about.
Olivia had called and he felt bad he hadn’t returned her call, she badly wants to speak to Irish and he’s not sure Irisj is in the right mood to do that now.
He walked out of his room shirtless and headed to Irish’s workshop.
Heads turned as he walked past bodyguards and female workers.
Their jaw literally dropped in wonderment as they stared at him.
He seems not to notice the stir he was causing as he kept walking.
He walked into Irish’s workshop and Ethan smiled on seeing him.
“Irish, I’m sorry” Arusha said and Irish got to her feet.
“No, You did nothing wrong” She said and pulled him into a tight hug.
“Thanks for standing up for me” She kissed his cheeks.
“But you shouldn’t be rude to an older person next time” Irish said.
“I didn’t mean to but i was just so pissed she couldn’t reprimand her daughter, i saw her when i walked in, she was looking less concerned and even continued eating when Jessica was yelling at you” Arusha said, still upset about Gabrielle’s behavior.
Irish touched the little plaster on his forehead and he winced in pain.
She felt like crying.
“Does it hurt?” She asked and he nodded.
“I’m so sorry Arusha” She said, feeling so bad.
He had gotten hurt because of her.
“Don’t be, and i have something to tell you” Arusha smiled.
“Really?” Irish asked eagerly.
“My husband is arriving tomorrow” Mrs Harlow rushed into Irish’s workshop, almost breathless. Everyone turned to her.
“Is my dress ready?” She asked Irish anxiously.
She had expected Irene to say no, because tomorrow was actually the deadline she gave her. So she had come to hasten her up cause her husband is coming tomorrow.
“Yes ma’am, it’s ready” Irish smiled.
“Wow” Mrs Harlow was impressed.
Arusha wondered who she was.
“My mum” Ethan said to Arusha, seeing the confused look on his face..
“Ohh… Hello ma” Arusha bowed in greeting while Irish went to get the dress.
Mrs Harlow studied him keenly for few moments.
“You’re just like Ethan when he was younger” she said and patted his back and even the blind could see that she likes Arusha.
“Yeah, he’s mini me” Ethan said and they laughed.
Irish held out the beautiful dress in front of Mrs Harlow and not only her was stunned, Ethan and Arusha was too.
No one could explain how Mrs Harlow ended up hugging Irish.
Irish was shocked, so as Ethan.
“Thank you so much” Mrs Gabrielle squealed like a kid.
“Ohh.. my” Irish said, still shocked by the hug.
“This is so beautiful” Mrs Harlow admired the dress and studied it with keen interest.
She never thought Irish would have completed it and not only that, she made it look so neat and beautiful.
She was so impressed and Irish was glad she had impressed her.
“My sister is still the best fashion designer I’ve ever come across” Arusha grinned.
“She just proved that to me too” Mrs Harlow smiled.
“You are so good at what you do Irish, I’m greatly impressed and you even finished it before the deadline, that’s a good quality of a business woman.”
“Thank you ma’am” Irish bowed.
