A Second Chance From The Heavens Chapter 42: Getting Used To This
Life was starting to get peaceful for Allison.After weeks of battling at the hospital, struggling to eat and sleep, crying silently from the pain, enduring blood transfusions and weakness in her limbs, Allison felt like she was in a much brighter world now.Matthew had set up a room for her that had a balcony overlooking the entire garden. There was a comfortable chair there where she would sit down and enjoy the breathtaking view. She felt like she was connected to the world at last, outside of the hospital’s walls.These past few days, Matthew had been wonderful. She felt a little embarrassed now that she was living at his house, but he was really accommodating towards her and he always made sure to make her as comfortable as possible. They would go out on short walks in the garden every early morning, and at night, she would go out into the balcony and look at the stars.When Matthew came to visit her room, he saw her staring wistfully up at the sky, hands gripping the coat draped
A Second Chance From The Heavens Chapter 43: Let’s Go Somewhere
Matthew bought her a telescope in the end, and after that, both of them would look at the stars every night before Allison went to bed, hoping to see a shooting star. Even though they failed to see one every time, it didn’t matter since they enjoyed this simple time together so much.“Do you want to do something new?” Matthew asked her one day.“Something new?” Allison repeated, sounding puzzled.“Yeah. I mean, it feels like we’re doing the same things every day. We should put some variety into it.”“It’s fine, I do enjoy these things.” Allison thought about it for a moment. “Though I do admit that it feels repetitive sometimes.”Matthew nodded. “Let’s add some more activities so you can have fun. What do you think about a movie night?”“Sounds good.”“There’s a game console here, too. You can play games if you want.”“Oh?”“I… I do play games sometimes,” Matthew admitted sheepishly. “Lily doesn’t, but she likes to watch me play instead.”Allison laughed. “Remember when we used to pla
A Second Chance From The Heavens Chapter 44: A Complicated Situation
Two months had now passed since Matthew began taking care of Allison, and it was one of the most difficult times that he experienced in his life.Although he tried his best not to show it, doing this was exhausting. He was always worried, always careful, and always wondering what more he could do for her. He wondered if his efforts were enough or if he should try harder.Even though Allison constantly assured him that she was fine, he was still afraid. He would watch over her like a hawk, and he would also make sure that she took her medications on time. He had arranged a private home care team for her, but they were only at the villa for limited periods of time to monitor her progress and assist with the necessary procedures. They were, of course, on call any time whenever there was an emergency.They were actually supposed to be assigned to manage and support Allison’s symptoms and assist her every day with her daily tasks, but Matthew insisted on doing most of them himself, knowing
A Second Chance From The Heavens Chapter 45: Worrisome
“No!”Matthew was startled at her sudden shout. "Wha — no? Why?” he asked incredulously.“Just… no!” Allison said with wide eyes, her expression filled with panic and anxiety. “I don’t want you to do it. Just forget about it. I told you that I’m fine!”Matthew was stunned at her drastic change of behavior. For a split second, he recalled her angry and hysterical self two months ago, back when she kept refusing his help. It was as though they went back to square one.“There’s nothing of value there,” Allison continued on, forcing her tone to be calm. “I don’t need anything from my apartment, so you don’t have to bring my things from there.”“But what about your clothes? Your personal possessions?”Allison shut her eyes. “Buy me new ones. I’ll pay you back for them once I get better.”Matthew blinked in surprise and confusion. “Lise, you don’t need to pay me… I’m just confused about why you don’t want me to go there.”“I don’t want to be reminded of memories back when I suffered there i
A Second Chance From The Heavens Chapter 46: Preparation
“Do you still not want to talk about it?” Matthew asked quietly.Allison shook her head as she silently ate her breakfast. For the first time, food seemed more interesting today instead of Matthew.She didn’t have the courage to look him in the eyes for too long. She felt like if she stared at him any longer, her courage would waver, and her inner anxiety would increase.She had been on edge last night, tossing and turning in her bed as she thought frantically about what she should say. In the end, when she faced him now, her mind only drew a blank. All the words she had planned to say to him dissolved into dust, leaving her mouth dry.The only thing she received last night was a lack of sleep, which wasn’t even remotely helpful in this situation.It wasn’t like he fared any better, though. From the look on his face, Allison guessed that he must’ve pondered over what happened just as much as she did. He looked like he barely even slept.It made her feel guilty in return. Because of he
A Second Chance From The Heavens Chapter 47: Revelation
After breakfast, Matthew informed Allison that he needed to take care of company matters for the day and was going to be too busy in his study to look after her. He promised that he would finish things up quickly and not sleep too late.He then called for the private home care team so they could watch over Allison in his stead. Though she was hesitant at first, she knew that she had been taking up too much of his time and affecting his work, so she agreed not to disturb him. She was tired anyway, and she would probably just take a nap after lunch.“I’ll have your snacks and your meals sent to you in your room, so you don’t have to wait for me, okay?” Matthew told her as he helped her to bed.“I’m fine,” Allison assured. “I can handle being by myself for one day. Besides, I know that I’ve been keeping you from fulfilling your obligations at work. Go ahead and don’t worry about me.”Matthew nodded with a small smile on his face. “All right. I’ll make sure to finish as soon as possible.”
A Second Chance From The Heavens Chapter 48: Shocking Information
Matthew couldn’t move for a long while, just staring incredulously at those photos as though trying to convince himself that they belonged to someone else.It was impossible…When did this happen?Bryce said that Allison had never been married again after their divorce…However, he couldn’t rule out the possibility that she had a boyfriend sometime back then, too.But these photos… when were they taken?Since when did she become pregnant?Matthew’s head was spinning with unanswered questions. He couldn’t even fathom anything at the moment. It felt as though the ground was spinning beneath his feet, making him stumble slightly in place.His strange movements attracted the attention of his bodyguards, and they sent him a look of alarm mixed with concern.“Sir, is everything all right?” one of the bodyguards asked tentatively.Matthew got a hold of himself and shook his head, waving his hand at them dismissively. “I’m fine, I’m fine. Carry on with your duties. I will take care of things
A Second Chance From The Heavens Chapter 49: The Letters
Matthew felt like he was stabbed right in the heart by this revelation.If this was indeed the truth... then how could Allison hide this from him? Was she hiding their daughter somewhere?Why didn’t she tell him?‘Then again...’ Matthew thought to himself bitterly. ‘She usually doesn’t say anything to me, anyway.’He took a deep, shuddering breath, trying to calm himself down. He shakily set down the photo, unable to look at it for a second longer.If this baby was indeed his daughter...He didn’t even know what to think anymore. He felt like a thread that was being pulled at both ends so strongly that one light touch would instantly make him snap.‘Why?’‘Why, Allison...?’Matthew hurriedly wiped away the tears that prickled at the corners of his eyes, already overcome with emotion.Just the thought of him having a daughter with Allison was filling him up with both happiness and despair. He couldn’t believe that Allison would just cruelly keep this from him and make an effort in orde
