HUNTER

I was exhausted as I sat in a chair and focused on the papers in front of me. As I thought about how many documents can I be read in such a short period, my head started to ache. Fuck!

"Do you think it makes sense for me to go through each of these individually? Crystal, you're pushing things too far. It was too much for me to handle. Can I just take a rest?" I was expressing my frustrations to her, but all she did was shake her head.

She moved from behind me gently and massaged my shoulder. Before whispering, she even laid her chin on it before speaking softly.

"Hunter, don't just complain. Keep in mind that this is the document that will help us in getting the wealth of the organization. That is the key that will allow us to start growing again. Don't you like that to happen? So, babe, continue; I know you can do it," she smiled and motivated me.

Even if this was the key to getting my money back, I still couldn't afford to read without feeling bored, so I couldn't start reading wholeheartedly. There's too much paperwork, and I'm beginning to think like a lawyer.

"Why is it important for me to read this? Maybe you can, but you can still make other people do it even if you can't. Crystal, it's boring. I can't let myself invest any of my energy into this. Just send me on my way to the mission," I am irritated and grumble to her before slamming my hand on the table.

Before sitting on my lap, Crystal made more effort to get herself back into the balance of her emotions. She went to grab my cheek before looking at me with pleading eyes.

"Why would you choose to disregard it if it was going to be the key to our financial success? Hunter, we need to start our own family right away. You, me, and our future son. So don't just quit and get tired," she said while flashing a smile.

I just got annoyed by what she said. I pushed her hands away, and even though it was not how I would have liked it, I turned my attention back to the papers. There is nothing wrong with giving it a shot.

"Wait, do I see it right? Do we have any title to the land that we own in Palawan? I couldn't believe what I had read today. It was so incredible. I cannot try to discover more about that place!" Crystal yelled and quickly snatched the piece of paper that contained the house's legal information.

She couldn't believe what she was seeing and gripped the page as tightly as she could. She was having a great time now. She even jumped a little bit, which caused my entire body to shake.

"Crystal, what in the world are you talking about? Don't get too excited just because I'm reading something. I'm trying to concentrate. It makes no difference to me if that is the type of ownership you desire. I don't care about anything else except having a luxurious car," I firmly told her.

She continued to jump; I did nothing but take a deep breath. She was far a greater distance from Trinity. If she moves, the woman I am with today seems to be no maturity like a kid. Suddenly, I recalled my former partner while I was working on the mission.

"How are you doing, Trinity? Even though it's been a few months since we last spoke, I still haven't received any news from you. I'm sorry that I didn't listen to what you said before. I regret leaving and not being there with you," I whispered my words to myself.

Yes, I admit. Trinity is someone that I long for. When she is nearby, and we are arguing, or she is making fun of me, I can't help but feel a little bit offended and awkward. I never imagined that I would come to appreciate her sexiness, but I also find myself wanting it. But it was now too late to realize what had happened.

"Hey, Hunter! Why did you just pause there all of a sudden? Have you envisioned the kind of family we will create together? Oh, darling, you're going to be such a wonderful and attractive father to your little one. You are so sweet," she happily said to me.
