My Little Sunshine

Chapter 289: I Give You Twenty-Four Hours

"I don't think she'd want that. And it will only happen if I let you take her."

The firm and crisp voice resonated through the quietness of the cabin. 

"In no way, I will let myself do that. My dear wife will have my head on a platter for her next meal if the words even leave my mouth mistakenly." He continued after getting the attention of the trip. 

"Y-you?" Taylor mutters under his breath, his voice barely a whisper, as he stared at the familiar figure of the man. "H-how? How are you a-alive?" He stuttered through his words. 

He stared at the man, who was no longer in disguise, with his eyes popping out of their sockets, not accepting the fact that the person he had gotten rid of, was back. And not only was he back, he was standing right before him. 

"Because I didn't die during the site incident. I accept that you were pretty good, but not good enough to kill me." Adam replied to him, taunting him with not only his words, but also with the smirk tugging at the corners of his lips. 

"It's not possible. You couldn't have made it out alive." Taylor refused to believe his eyes and ears. He took a step back, and then another as he shook his head sideways. "You should have been dead!" He shouted at the top of his lungs, his words echoing through the quietness of the cabin. 

"But I am not dead. I am alive, standing right before you." Adam glared at him as he took a couple of steps in his direction. His eyes trailed off to his woman for a fleeting second before they shifted back to the man. 

"I don't mind you going after me. I would have turned a blind eye to the whole matter, but you dared to go after my woman. That is something I can't, and won't forgive." He added while throwing deadly glares at him. 

"Adam?" His name left her lips which was barely a whisper, but it still managed to catch his attention. "Can we go home now, please?" She couldn't care less about the argument which was going on between the two men. All she wanted, more like needed, was to be in the confinements of their home and bask in the warmth of his embrace. 

Hearing her plea, Adam let out a long sigh and nodded his head. He wanted to teach Taylor a lesson really bad, but nothing mattered more than his woman. And if she wanted to go home, he would give into her demands. Moreover, he also wanted nothing more than to have her in his arms. 

"Alright!" He gave her a faint smile as he agreed to her before shifting his gaze back to Taylor. "I will take care of you tomorrow. My wife needs me more at the moment." He spoke up in a spiteful manner, long gone was his soft and mellow voice with which he had referred to Stella earlier. 

He made his way to where she was standing, not paying any more of his attention to the man who was so lost in his own thoughts to reply back to him. After approaching her, he nodded slightly at Carston before he grabbed her and pulled her into his arms. 

"Are you okay?" He muttered under his breath as he hugged her tighter. His taut shoulders relaxed a little and his haywired mind calmed down after having her in his embrace. No words could describe the feeling for pain and longing he went through when Blake called him.

He was already on his way to the banquet when he received his calls. Blake sounded like he had lost his mind as he kept apologising to him again and again. It took Adam around five minutes just to make him come to the point. 

"I am fine. Are you okay?" Stella muttered against his chest as she took in a long whiff of his scent. He felt like home, and smelt like home for her. She knew that his worrisome nature wouldn't have let his mind be at peace till now.

"Yes, my love. I am fine too. How are the babies? They didn't trouble you, did they?" He spoke above her head as the man was more worried that his two little devils might have troubled his beloved wife. She was starting to have morning sickness and nausea, and it worried him more. 

"They have been good." She answered him with a light chuckle. 

"And did you do that to him?" He tilted his head in Taylor's direction who was still standing on his previous spot, and gave her a questioning look. 

Tilting her head back she looked up at him and bobbed her head up and down excitedly, as if she was proud of herself. Looking at her hopeful expression, Adam couldn't help but shake his head helplessly. 

"You did a good job. Now let's go home." He kissed the top of her head and held her by her waist. 

"I give you twenty-four hours. And thank you for your help." He muttered to Carston before he began to guide Stella out of the cabin. Once the duo was out on the runway, Stella was shocked to see the number of uniformed men standing around the private jet. Some of them were the same ones she had seen earlier on her way in and took them as Taylor's men. 

"How's Elena?" She questioned him as he guided her to the black Maybach which was standing next to the jet. 

"Are you serious?" Adam gave her a glaring look. "You were the one who was kidnapped, and you are worrying about her." He couldn't believe how thick skulled his woman was about matters which concerned her. "She's at the base though, and was talking to Lillian in private when I left for the banquet." He still answered her like the dutiful husband he was.
