When Justin and Andrew did not say anything, Owen frowned, "No, No…I am not gonna fall for this again. You guys need to cut me some slack as well. I am on vacation too."
"We just got engaged, if you can take care of Edward for one more day—"
"Oh no no no, I am not falling for that. I already did my part and took care of him for three whole days, now its time to switch. And moreover, today is the expo day. We all have to go there."
When both Owen and Justin looked at Andrew, he raised his brows. "Don't look at me, I stepped out of the room with Rachael only because I ran out of condoms."
"Dude, didn't you buy a big packet?" Justin widened his eyes in shock.
"Well—" Andrew shrugged. He had nothing to say.
"Hey don't jinx his s*ex life when it has started again," Owen smacked Justin's arm. "The guy has been a celibate for quite some time, let him enjoy his life now."
Left with no other choice, Owen added, "Alright, I'll take care of Edward until you both are done satisfying your tools. Anyway, being with that kid is more fun than being with the two of you."
Justin: " "
Andrew: " "

[Moscow, Russia]
When Samuel tried to take Katherine away, Viktor tried to stop him. "Young Master, you can't take madam with you."
"And why is that?" Samuel knew he would try to stop him. But nothing would stop him from taking his sister with him today.
Contemplating for a while, Viktor answered, "Madam has to meet her fiance later so—"
"Do you want to meet him?" When Katherine shook her head, Samuel remarked, "Well then since she doesn't wanna meet anyone, I guess the meeting has been called off."
"But—" Viktor swallowed the rest of the words when Samuel looked at him.
Keeping quiet for a while, Samuel said, "Viktor, is there a problem with me taking my sister out?"
"N-No sir but—" Contemplating for a while, he added, "The meeting has been scheduled and it will be rude to cancel it now."
"When did we start caring about being rude to other people?" When Viktor did not say anything, Samuel remarked, "If there is nothing else, we will be leaving."
He then grabbed Katherine's hand and walked out of the house.
After they left, Viktor took out his phone and quickly called Igor to inform him about the situation.

[Inside the car]
"Brother, how are we going to leave this country?" Katherine was very worried. She very well knew that if Igor wanted them not to leave, they would never be able to go.
"Don't worry about that, he will not be able to stop us." Samuel assured her. He has already received a call from Ben informing that all the arrangements for them to leave the country had already been made. All they had to do was board the plane.
"But—" she wanted to question him further but she chose not to. Though the two brothers held equal control over everything that was under the Petrov family, Igor, being the eldest, always had an upper hand.
Understanding her concern, he explained, "The Volkov's will help us get out of here."
"What?" She widened her eyes in shock. "This—why?" She was very much aware about the conflict between the two families. Volkov's helping them was the least she had expected.
"It's a long story that isn't important," he stated. "Right now the most important thing is to take you away from here." He didn't know what had happened but he knew he had to take Katherine as far as he could from Igor.

[London, Blue Ray Hotel]
Lying in each other's embrace, Andrew was scrolling through his emails while Rachael was busy replying to Emma and Tina.
[Emma: So you finally got the time to message us??]
[Tina: When we did not hear from you, we thought your husband ate you up]
[Rachael: (laughing emoji)]
[E: Why are you laughing? Give us details!]
[T: Yeah, we want details]
[R: I'll give you girls the details when I come back. Until then, bye bye]
After sending the message, Rachael tossed her phone aside, completely ignoring the fact that it was buzzing continuously.
"What kind of details are you going to give them?" Andrew kept his phone on the bed and looked at him.
"Were you peeking?" She pouted her lips. "Reading someone else's message is bad manners. What happened to your morals Mr. Collins?"
"I lost all my morals the day I met you." He kissed her cheeks followed by her chin. "Nothing is left now."
"Why have you suddenly become so cheesy?" She chuckled. "You weren't like this before."
Rachael smiled and leaned against his chest. "This trip really turned into a mini honeymoon."
"I'll take you to a real honeymoon soon, until then—" He pinned her down. "Let's enjoy the mini version of it."
Before Andrew could make a move, his phone started ringing.
When he sighed, Rachael ran her fingers through his hair and chuckled. "Go receive it first."
"When we go for our real honeymoon, we are leaving our phones at home," he stated as he got up.
He then grumpily grabbed his cell phone, all read to snap at whoever it was. But when he saw the caller ID, he raised his brows.
Noticing the change in his expression, she inquired, "What happened? Who is it?"
"It's work." He got up. "Rach, I'll take this outside, okay?" When she nodded, he quickly made his way towards the balcony.
…..
[Outside]
"I hope I did not disturb Mr. Collins while he is having a lovely time with his beautiful bride in London."
"Yes you did disturb," Andrew remarked. "And don't you know you are not suppose to disturb people when they are on vacation?"
"Oh my apologies," Igor chuckled. "But I thought people don't work when they are on vacation either. But it seems like that doesn't apply to the Volkov brother's."
