Ms. Attractive and inciting CEO Chapter 372 - Be a damn man already

Chapter 372 - Be a damn man already

Enrick is now sitting in his brother's study room, sighing while getting scolded. He neither denied nor refuted, but stayed calm. Because he deserves it.
"Rick, how can you be so irresponsible. Why did you ask all your teams to not follow you to country A. Because of this, the paparazzi got the pics of all of you" his big brother sighed.
"Now, you have also dragged Hope into this." His brother shook his head.
Rick instantly paled, yes, how can he forget about Hope. His worse nightmare to came true, what if any of his enemies target her.
He couldn't bear it....she have never faced any problems in her life. She is sensitive and also naïve because of her parents pampering.
"Brother, aren't these pictures wiped away by one of your tech people? Do you think some might have seen them" Rick panicked.
"They did Rick. But it is already late, I think some of our enemies might have seen them" his big brother shrugged.
Rick sighed and his usual cold voice choked. "So… Hope is in danger"
When one have someone they care, the things usually become more dangerous because that person and they will become their weakness.
Just like how his invincible big brother got Danielle…
Just like Raymond who is being extra cautious and restless because he got his wife Seline now….
Same like Iris who always worry about Jeff. Because of whose persistence Jeff is now learning some martial arts and practicing to aim the gun properly.
It is only Jean and Scott who are not having each other as a weakness but as strength and support.
"Of course Rick. Hope is in danger. Though it seemed like she came to trip just because of Scott and Jean, still we have to be careful" his big brother said.
Yes, the paparazzi have only concentrated on taking Jean and Scott's pictures. So no one can predict that Hope is little special to him.
"Brother, what should I do now. I don't want anything to happen to Hope" Rick panicked.
"Keep her safe and stay close to her. Don't let her out of your sight. That's it...simple" it is Danielle who spoke now.
Her belly started to show up pretty clearly and she even became a little fat. Because of her mood swings, even his brother stopped working and is staying with her almost everyday.
She slowly walked to her husband and hugged him. His big brother softened and his eyes turned gentle. Wrapping her in his big arms he made her sit on his lap.
"But Elle. If I stay close to her don't you think I will start liking her more and more. I already told you that she give me this weird feeling.." Rick sighed.
Danielle laughed. "That weird feeling is called Love" she said.
"But when I loved Jean, I never felt like this" he said.
"It is because, what you feel for Jean is called mutual respect and admiration along with small traces of infatuation. What you feel for Hope is called true love" Danielle explained.
Rick sighed, even he thought it. But he is simply convincing himself that it is not 'love' between him and Hope.
"Elle, I am afraid that if I let my heart take its course I will fall for her. I don't want to drag her into this life of mine" Rick said and pursed his lips.
"Rick, what is your problem exactly. You like her right, then why are you holding up" his brother asked while he massaged his wife's foot.
"Brother, what if she starts hating me for dragging her into all this mess. What if she force herself to change for me….I can't just be selfish right" he emotionally said.
Elle shook her head. "Rick, if a woman truly loves a person she will never feel those type of feelings. What they want from you is only love, care and getting spoiled with pampering and doting" she said and his big brother looked at her with immense love and kissed her forehead.
If this is normal times he would have complained about dog food but now he don't care about it. "You know Rick, when your brother told me frankly about the situation I will be facing if I accept his proposal, I didn't feel afraid because I know that he will protect me. Even till now, I have never felt suffocated nor regretted my decision back then"
"So if Hope really loves you she will accept you like how you are. Give your relationship a chance" Danielle suggested.
"What if she gets hurt because of me" Rick asked dully.
"Mr. Enrick Richards, if you are a man you will protect your woman. I think your enemies list is not as long as your big brother's here. We both are having babies now and he never even worried about our security because he is confident and well prepared to protect us from anything. If you love Hope, pursue her and protect her. Be a damn man already" Danielle almost shouted.
"This situation we are in will not last long Rick. After we have our revenge it will be a happy and ordinary life.....so, you need a life partner to live your life. When you find a perfect soul mate for you…be brave and make her yours" his brother said and lifted his wife in his arms.
"No woman will wait forever. They will have family who will force her to move on." Elle said.
"Stop overthinking Brother. Do whatever your heart tell and don't forget that we will always support you no matter what" his big brother patted his shoulder and took Elle to his room.
Jasper came in and sat beside the gloomy Rick.
"Brother Rick, sister Hope is so good and a perfect match for you. Don't loose her…..I am telling you with experience" Jasper said.
Rick coughed.
For gods sake Jasper is just twelve years old.
