"Mum, are you sure. Don't you have a lot of work to do," Andrew said, moving closer to where his mum is.

"I have all weekend doing nothing, I am available and I am going to be here all weekend."

"Mum."

"You're welcome to stay ma, I mean mum," Krystal said.

Andrew side eyed Krystal. He didn't know what to say and also, he knew that his mum wasn't going to bulge.

"Alright mum."

"I should go to my room now," his mum said and walked up the stairs towards the guest room.

As she was walking up the stairs, Andrew pulled Krystal to the side.

"You can't just let her move in like that."

"She is only staying for the weekend, I don't see any issues there."

"You don't know my mum. She would want to know everything. I mean everything," Andrew said and Krystal noticed how uncomfortable he was starting to seem. She didn't want to prove too much into what was happening.

She knew it wasn't her business and didn't want to make it hers.

"Alright but don't stress it too much," Krystal said, trying to calm him down.

"Also, we will have to stay in the same room at least till mum leaves," Andrew explained.

"I don't have a problem with that," Krystal responded.

"That's good."

Andrew went out for his run while Krystal went up to her room to pick up things to move to Andrew's room.

She also sat and decided on what else to do with Collins. She decided that she was going to start work the next day and she was going to try to gather evidences from the office about work.

Collins fumed as he read the headlines on the newspaper and the tabloids. He wished he could see Andrew and hit him with a hug blow on his face. He was that frustrated.

Apart from the fact that everyone was talking about it, he just didn't understand how they had played a card on him that he didn't see coming.

He was always a plan ahead, always knowing what was going to happen soon but that was one thing he didn't see coming. One thing that surprised him alot.

He needed to start the next phase of his plane as soon as possible and that he knew.

It was time for dinner, Krystal went down from her room to join Andrew and his mum in the dinning table.

She wasn't sure what to expect but from her earlier interactions with his mum, she knew that she was a cool person. She just hoped she was like that always.

"Hey Krystal," his mum said as she got to the dinning table. Andrew and his mum were already sitting and the chef was about starting to serve the food.

"Hello, how has your stay been?" She asked.

"Been good so far," his mum replied. "If only Andrew would let me do this often, I love being here, it's lonely out there in the big mansion.

"I can't imagine how it must be for you," Krystal said, showing empathy.

"I always tell Andrew about him spending time at the house but he never wants to," his mum added.

"Mum, you know I am always busy," he said trying to defend himself.

"Alright, I have heard. I can't wait for your kids to start running around in the house though and coming to visit. It's too lonely there."

Krystal and Andrew exchanged glances as she spoke.
