Unexpected Encounter: A Second Chance at Love

[Next Day]

[Elisberg City, Collins mansion]

After spending an extra day in Yumen city, Andrew and Rachael drove back home early the next day.

They spent the extra day in bed, cuddling with each other, talking about random things. They learned many new things about each other's hobbies and interests.

Since it rained the entire day and night and the power was off, Andrew did not let her step out of the bed.

He cuddled her when he was in bed and swaddled her in the blanket before he went to the kitchen to prepare food.

He treated and pampered her like a small baby but Rachael did not find it annoying. Instead, she felt very nice and warm. She felt loved and valued.

The unexpected cuddle day helped them take their relationship to a new level of closeness and intimacy. And both of them took a step closer to each other's hearts.

Their relationship was moving faster and smoother than both of them had expected. And neither of them were holding their feelings back.

Looking at Andrew who was taking their suitcase out of the trunk, Rachael couldn't help but smile. Ever since they got married, he had been treating her so well and was very open about his fondness for her.

Though she had been in a serious relationship before with Oliver, he never treated her like Andrew did.

No matter how badly their relationship ended, Oliver was a good boyfriend, he took care of her very well. But there was something different about Andrew and the way he took care of her, treated her.

What she presently had with him was a whole new level of intimacy. Something that Rachael hadn't experienced before. Even though they hadn't done anything extreme, in fact, they hadn't even shared a kiss yet but the connection she felt with him was already very intense.

When Andrew caught her smiling at him, he asked, "What are you smiling at?"

Rachael shook her head. "Nothing."

"Come, let's go inside." He grabbed her hand.

[Inside]

When they entered the mansion, Rachael suddenly stopped in her tracks.

"Were we expecting someone?" She looked at him.

"Huh?" Andrew frowned, not understanding what she meant.

"There is someone sleeping on the couch," she said in a relatively lower voice.

This is when he realized there was a woman sleeping on their couch in a very inappropriate manner.

Pinching the bridge of his nose, he sighed before walking towards her. He then picked up the quilt from the floor and covered her.

"Elsa, wake up—" he shook her shoulders, in an attempt to wake her up. But in response, a cushion landed straight on his face.

"Get the f*uck out of my face Owen, I'll f*ucking kill you," Elsa growled.

Just then Owen came out of the kitchen shirtless, crunching an apple.

"Hey, you both are finally home," he exclaimed before taking another bite of the apple.

"When did you both arrive?" Andrew inquired.

"Five in the morning," Owen answered while walking towards Rachael.

He then gave her an unexpected hug. "Hey Rach, it's so good to see you again."

Not ready for the hug attack, Rachael stumbled back a little but she somehow managed to balance herself.

Not knowing what to do, she lightly patted his naked back. "I-It's good to see you too Owen."

"Okay so—" He pulled away. "I have heard so much about your wonderful cooking skills from Justin. That b*astard kept ranting about it the entire flight."

Without waiting for her, he asked, "When are you cooking for me?"

"Owen, wear a shirt first—" Andrew snapped. He then frowned at the women snoring on his couch. "Will you wake up or should I ask someone to throw a bucket of cold water on you?"

"Hey, why are you being so rude to her? Don't forget that she is our little sister," Owen remarked.

"Arghh—" Elsa groaned and glared at Andrew and Owen simultaneously. "I'll kill you both someday. Can't you see a tired lady trying to catch her beauty sleep here? Can't you speak softly?"

"Andrew is the one shouting."

"What are both of you doing in my house in my absence?" Andrew snapped.

"See, he is shouting again," Owen sneered.

"Shut up—" Elsa threw a pillow towards Owen and the other one on Andrew.

Rachael on the other hand was in an awkward position after being caught up in the middle of the brothers and sister banter.

"If I hear one more word, I'll—" Elsa stopped when her eyes landed on Rachael. Her expression immediately softened as she rushed towards her.

Placing her hand on Rachael's shoulder, she exclaimed, "You must be Rachael—" She then gave her a hug. "You have no idea how much I have waited to meet you."

Before Rachael could say anything, Elsa pulled away. "I am Elsa Volkov, Owen's little sister and Andrew's cousin."

Glaring at Andrew, she added, "This rude brother of mine didn't even bother to inform me about his wedding let alone introducing his wife to me so I had to take matters in hand. I flew all the way from Russia just to meet you." She hugged her again.

This time, Rachael got a chance to hug her back. "Thank you for coming."

"If you guys had an early flight, why didn't you go to the hotel and rest first before crashing into my house?" Andrew frowned. He didn't like having many people in the house as it would disturb his time with his wife.

He had plans of spending the day with Rachael in the garden. The arrangements he had asked Ben to make a few days ago were all ready. He couldn't wait to redecorate the garden with her.

But now that Owen and Elsa were here, his plan was ruined. This made his mood extremely bad.

"What's with this rudeness bro?" Owen sighed. "Now that you are married, you have started detesting us?"

Andrew gave him a cold look before walking upstairs with the suitcase. He had no intention of entertaining his annoying cousins anymore.
