When Lisa woke up the next day she didn't see Augustus beside him but the warmth on the other side of the bed told her that he slept at home last night.
She went to the washroom and as expected when she saw the steam on the mirror she realized that Augustus had just left now.
She went down and Ms. Davis was preparing breakfast for the kids. Seeing Lisa coming over, Ms. Davis greeted her respectfully.
"Good Morning, Madam."
"Good Morning, Did Augustus eat breakfast?" She asked Ms. Davis in worry.
"Uhmmm... No Young Master was in hurry so he left without eating breakfast." She told her.
"Ohh...." Lisa said in disappointment. "I'll go and check on kids."
She then turned and went to the kid's room, after sending them school. Lisa prepared breakfast for Augustus she knew Augustus won't eat from outside, before his mother, Rheena Carlos would take care of his food but now as she has fallen sick she didn't have the time to fulfill
As Lisa entered the ward, she saw Bella’s eyes were trembling in sleep. She walked to her in worry and then held her hand to comfort her."I am here, you're not alone..." she whispered softly and then rubbed her temples to ease her frown.Bella gradually calmed down and lost back into her sleep.In the afternoon, finally Bella woke up moving her hands slightly to take off the mask. Lisa immediately stopped her and told her about her difficult situation and also revealed that she is having "twins"A smile appeared on Bella's face as she heard of her babies but soon a layered of mist appeared in her eyes as she whispered Victor's name with difficulty.Lisa shook her head indicating that he didn't come to see her after that."Do you want me to call him?" Lisa asked her after thinking for a while.Bella just shook her head as her tears started streaming her cheeks, she turned her face and it wet her pillow.Lisa gently wiped
Lisa spent more time in kid's room. She was nervous and afraid of how to face Augustus and how to explain things to him?She still felt that discussing Cristian with him or just mentioning his name would brought unhappiness to their life, but hiding the things would made Augustus suspicious about the things that don't even exist.She carefully thought about everything and then after taking a long deep sigh, she finally twisted the door knob to step outside.It was dark and pin drop silent in the dining room. Lisa thought that Augustus had already gone to the bed so she walked to the bedroom and as expected she saw Augustus asleep on the bed.At first she tried to walk to him but soon she stopped as she stood close to his side.She sighed again feeling confused about her feelings, she than shook her head and gave up the idea of explaining him things at the moment.She went to the washroom to change her clothes.Just as the door was clo
Lisa turned back and stared at him, she was extremely shocked from his weird questions from her."What do you mean?" Lisa asked him as she stood in front of him.Augustus stared at her with his cold eyes, there was no love and emotions in his eyes. It was completely blank."You know what I mean... so did you really fall in love with that f**king Silas?" He asked, his tone was showing his displeasure that was deeply hurting Lisa."How could you?" Lisa took a step back in disbelief as she stared at him.A sarcastic smile appeared on Augustus's face when he saw Lisa's reaction.Lisa felt extremely disappointed and suddenly she pounced on Augustus angrily hitting his chest hard like a wild cat."How dare you Augustus...How could you...."She kept hitting him as the glass of wine fell from Augustus hand on the carpet and he held Lisa's both hands and pinned her on the wall.He held her wrist tightly and mercilessly pu
"I have bandaged her. She is completely fine, but you need to be careful with the water until the stitches get dry...." Doctor suggested Augustus as he stood up to leave.Augustus nodded his head as he thanked him and then Ms. Davis came over to send the doctor off.The room was quiet, as Augustus's deep blue eyes were staring at the petite woman on the bed.He felt regretful and remorse as he looked at her bandaged foot."Lisa......" He sighed heavily as he walked to the bed and touched her right foot which was covered in bandage.He very gently moved his fingers on her foot and then kissed her foot feeling pity for her.Just than a knock came, Augustus glanced at the door and said, "Come in."Ms. Davis came in with broom, "I need to clean, Young Master." She said apologetically when she saw Augustus's poker face.Augustus nodded merely, as his hand was still holding Lisa's foot and his eyes were deeply focused on it, seemed l
Meanwhile at the military base,A loud crisp sound was heard in an office filled with only three people at the moment.Paa......."Bastard...... do you really want to kill me?" A man over fifty years old said while holding his chest painfully."My decision is final dad..." Victor replied as he stood straight in front of his father instead of the slap he just got from him now."You........" the old man was fuming in anger as he glared at his son."Dad .... It’s okay. If it is meant to be....." a woman's sweet voice came who was holding the old man's arm in concern."No..... no my dear..... Since I'm alive I won't let him divorce you. He could divorce you upon my death." The old man said stubbornly.The woman rolled her eyes when she heard that and her eyes became extremely cruel for a moment she felt like strangling the old man from her own hands but soon she came back to her senses and her expressions soften again.
Next day, as Lisa woke up she felt heaviness in her foot as she tried to move it she felt painful. She groaned in her sleep feeling restless as Augustus's husky voice came into her ear making her whole body shiver."Hmmm don't move, the stitches are still fresh...""Stitches...?" Lisa frowned as she tried to recall what happened to her?"Yeah, you got 6 stitches under your foot." Augustus said in a hoarse voice as he sat up rubbing his eyes.Lisa frowned as she looked at his bare chest, he's always naked when he sleeps.She rolled her eyes and then looked away from him.Augustus put her foot again on the pillow gently and then stood up to go to the washroom."Don't move" He warned her as he saw her struggling to get up.Lisa lay helplessly on the bed.Soon, Augustus came out he helped her to sit up and then picked her up in his arms. Lisa frowned as she subconsciously pushed his chest. "What are you doing?""What?
As Augustus brought Lisa down in his arms, Bella, Maria and Simon all three were already sitting on the dining table having their breakfast.As they saw Lisa coming over in Augustus's arms Simon was the first to reach her."Mom, how are you feeling?" He asked before Augustus could place her on the chair."I am fine, Simon." Lisa answered him as Augustus gently put her on the chair.He then brought a tiny stool as he placed it under her bandaged foot."Simon you shouldn't leave your breakfast like this.” Augustus told him as he pulled his chair indicating him to come back to finish his breakfast."I was worried for mom." Simon explained as he walked to his chair and sat."Don't worry, I will take care of your mom." Augustus said as he touched his head but Simon gave a look to his mother. "Like really? He would......"Lisa gave Simon a weak smile trying to ensure him that everything is fine between her and Augustus.
Days passed by as it has become Augustus's routine to daily help Lisa in the bath and then dress her up. After the first day, Lisa had insisted him to call Rita for her help while he should go to his office for work.She didn't want him to delay his work because of her.Bella had offered her willingly to help but Lisa refused politely as she didn't want any harm to her health.Rita had come over to help Lisa while Augustus was away but when Augustus came back he would send Rita away and took her to the bed by himself however he has started spending a lot of his time in his study working.Lisa never complained about it neither she showed any concern to him. Since the last argument they had about her and Cristian's friendship Lisa has quietly distant herself from him and they both rarely talk nowadays.In front of kids they are normal but in reality they are not. Augustus is trying his best to let Lisa forgive him but the knot that had been tied in L
