THIRD PERSON'S POV

_______________________________________________________________________________________

Everyone present there turned to look at Ryan with a questioning look in their eyes.

"What the fuck does he mean, Ryan?" It was Beth this time.

Knowing that both Ryan and Xander does not like Lucas, it came as a shock to her to know that Ryan called Lucas Rodriguez here.

Xander couldn't understand a single thing but he knew there must be a reason as the why his best friend did such an unexpected thing.

He gazed back at Ryan only to find him looking back at him.

"Can we talk outside for a minute?" Ryan asked Xander.

Xander was hesitant in answering. He didn't want to leave his Triantáfyllo alone. But he also wanted to hear to Ryan.

Ryan on understanding his dilemma, said,

"It's alright. Beth is here. And it will only take a minute."

Listening to him, Xander sighed and nodded before going back towards his wife and softly pecked her on her head and walked out.

He had his ear pressed to tye window where the curtains were drawn so that the people inside couldn't see him outside. It was only when Lucas opened the door suddenly, that the other person quickly turned away in the opposite direction and started to run. Lucas immediately ran after him.The man turned left to the corridor and Lucas followed suit. Who is he? And why the fuck was he outside Scarlett's room? Listening to their conversation?Lucas couldn't figure this out and the conclusion he could come up with was that, the person behind Scarlett's condition must have sent one

    THIRD PERSON'S POV_______________________________________________________________________________________ Hearing the defeated tone of the young man filled with sorrow and helplessness, and his head hung low, the old woman finally gave in. But she needed to ask something before so she did."But...But how do you know about this?" Xander seemed as if he expected her to ask this so he took out his phone and made a call. Passing the phone over to her, he sat back down with no expression on his face. It seemed as if he was observing and contemplating at the same time in his mind. A lot of thoughts were going around in his head but the one he was most concerned about was his Triantáfyllo. He needed her to wake up soon. He needed her to be alright and be by his side. On seeing the name on the phone screen, the old lady was shook. She could feel her mind going numb, her eyes widened and her body started trembling. Her breaths came in short intervals and she couldn't think anything, it s

    THIRD PERSON'S POV_______________________________________________________________________________________ "That was how crazy my Leo was." The old lady laughed lightly shaking her head as if he was just standing there beside her. Xander could see the fond smile on her face on remembering her husband."You loved him?" Without even him realising, this question just slipped out of his mouth. His mind unconsciously gathered an image of his wife smiling while remembering him like that? Did she ever miss me? He wondered. He tried hard to think about if there any time where she told him she missed him or anything remotely relevant but except for that call when he was in Germany, nothing came up in his mind. "I did." Roop's voice brought him out of his thoughts."Sometimes, I think he loved me more." She turned to face Xander with her arms crossed across her chest."He loved me first you know. I never thought I would fall for him but I did." "I hurt him, a lot but he still continued lo

Her story was pitiful and it was nice that Leo found her again. He admit he felt bad on hearing her story but it didn't do much to melt his cold heart. He was here for his Triantáfyllo and he's only concerned about her. Maybe people will call him a heartless bastard and he's alright with that. But the only person who matters to him is his wife so he was patiently listening to her trying to find when will she finally tell him the cure to the poison currently infiltrating his wife's body. "What happened after that?" He asked. "The day after we reached here, Aakash had already given me poison. He convinced my parents that we are going on a vacation but only I knew the truth. He asked me to take a walk around the city not knowing that I had already spent my two precious years here. That day I ran into Leo. He was changed.

Why aren't you speaking anything? Is it something serious? Why are you sitting so sulkily here?"Were the words Abhishek spoke the moment he arrived at the hospital corridor. Leo gave him a slight glance before sighing with his head down. "What happened?" Abhishek repeated. He was in disbelief after giving his friend a once from head to toe. He could clearly see that Leo was completely alright, he wasn't injured anywhere so why is he here at the hospital? Leo still didn't say anything. "Is it one of your tricks just so you won't have to go hiking?" Abhishek pondered over it.Of course, that might be it or else why would Leo be here.As far as he knows Leo has no family right now, and besides him, he does not also have many friends.And even of something had happened to someone, he can't think of anyone who

"How shameless can you be? A few seconds ago you were the one with pale face and now look at you...tsk tsk!" "Whatever! You still don't know what it means whereas I do." The brown eyed man proudly said while tilting his chin forward and pointing towards his chest. Leo stayed silent this time.

    The flowers of various different colours were arranged in a uniform manner around the entire boundary of the hall. The ruby red and pure pink were the ones that dominated among the flower arrangements. Beautifully embroidered and shimmering golden, thick curtains laced with soft white laces had formed an exquisite bow at the place where the curtain threads are tied, along with the huge hanging chandelier sparkling like diamonds on above and the silent but peaceful cover of the dark night, it all made this date night more special. As I marvelled at the luxurious decorations, a sound came from behind me and no later I felt a light stubble grazing the back of my neck. "Ah, Xander! You startled me."I tried to turn around to face him but his arms held me right around my waist and pulled me closer. "No, just stay like this." He whispered as his breath fell on the skin of my neck. "Huh." I took a deep breath. To be honest, in such a beautiful atmosphere, I have had already lost my he

He voice went low as he spoke the last few words.I could almost feel his breath spraying on my earlobe."Ohh." I nodded in response."I thought you knew Hindu." Chuckling at my own assumption, I turned around."Tell me about you." I said to him, looking straight into his eyes.I wanted to know more about him. Just know, he talked about his mother.

    "Umm....I don know."I stuttered.Walking towards him, I smiled awkwardly and answered,"Maybe someone put it outside by mistake."Xander just nodded before walking past me towards that bouquet of roses."It's a mistake then. But I don't like someone giving roses to my wife, even when it's a mistake."Turning around, he flashed me a cold grin."So, let's throw it away."Yeah sure.I had no qualms about throwing this bouquet away so I didn't say anything.By why do I feel a bad premonition?

    "It's already the 7th of February."I mumbled while crunching on the special cookies made by my husband.Valentine week has already started and it's evening now but still no roses from this handsome but ice block of a husband of mine.Xander glanced at me before he went back to pouring a cup of coffee for himself and a cup of tea for me.Now, let's clear something up. Yes, he's like a handsome devil just as in those Hot CEO novels and I'm really proud of having such an amazing and handsome man as my husband who's also a chef but..but, the coffee he drinks is the same taste-like, bitter.Blergh!(Just mimicking, don't take it serious)So where were we? Yes, coffee!His bitter coffee, yes. So like the coffee he drinks is not completely black coffee like told in those novels and dramas but the taste is still the same bitter one.So for me, tea is still better."Thanks." I said before taking a sip of my tea."So....""Yes?"I glared at him. Hmph!"What "yes?"?! You didn't even look up fro

    "Don't...don't laugh at me." Scarlett stuttered but she still laid on the ground. Raising her hand and putting it on her temples, she rubbed and cried out,"I'm so weak...ah, I can't even get up now. My legs ache...." Casting a side glance at Xander, she continued with her acting.Of course, she came here to do a prank on him.Hoping to disturb in his meeting and that still can be done. And yes, she had already confirmed with the head butler that he was not in a very important meeting as Xander had not given any strict instructions to not disturb him. So she felt it was okay. He's my husband after all.In this way, she convinced herself. Anyhow, now she has fallen down.Hmph! Who said you can't prank after you've fallen on your butt, *cough* *cough* in her case, stomach? "Ahh...Xander, it hurts...." She pitifully cried out him. Her lips pursed together to give the impression as if she's trying really hard to hold back her tears from dripping down.

    Pursing my lips, I stifled a yawn as he once again lectured me.I glared at him being sleepy which just made me eyes water instead of looking fierce."Got it." I waved my hand."What do you mean you got it? You need to learn this and recite two time." He insisted."Oh god Xander.....just lemme sleep." I again whined.My sleep, I know you are waiting for me but I'm sorry, my husband is not leaving me tonight.I chuckled to myself thinking what if I say this sentence out loud.Well, let's find out.Looking to a corner towards the fireplace, I muttered, deliberately in a loud voice to make this husband of mine hear."My sleep, I know you are waiting for me but I'm sorry, my husband is not leaving me tonight."Xander's eyes narrowed as he looked at me the moment those words left my mouth.His lips curled up at the corner of his mouth."What did you just say, mou triantafyllo?"I huffed and didn't answer him. Maybe I shouldn't have said that but it's not like I said anything wrong."Want t

The rays of sun seemed like they were playing hide and seek with them, coming and going the other moment as if they could just slip out of one's hand at any moment.Xander had not slept the entire night yesterday. He was awake all night, sitting beside his Triantafyllo, just as her guardian.And yes they were still sleeping in separate rooms as it had only been a week since she was discharged.And he had yet to bring up the matter of sleeping in the same room with her.He sighed."ómorfi mou, triantáfylló mou."He placed a long kiss on her forehead as he bent down and stood up a few moments after."Hmm?" Scarlett stirred up as she felt a soft and warm touch upon her face."Sleep sone more. I'll get something for you to eat." He gently pushed the strands of her hair sticking out behind and again laid a soft kiss on her lips before getting up."Uhmm....don't go." Scarlett murmured in her sleep as her hold on his arm grew tight.He

    The early rays of the sun shined on the two bodies cuddled together under the white sheets through the large window in the room as the curtains flew slightly because of the wind. It was a nice weather. Nice enough that Xander didn't sleep whole night.His eyes only kept staring at his Triantafyllo. After the doctor had diagnosed her, she has been sleeping till now in her room and he had stayed beside her for the whole night. He was thinking of the words Doctor Mike told him last night when she had fainted. "I don't know how to say this but I guess memories from those years back might be coming back now. It might be bits or fragments of sone moments but this is typically the case when a coma patient or the one who has had amnesia starts remembering things. She must have been overwhelmed by the memory or may be its possible that she might have tried hard to think about it and get the memory of that specific moment altogether which scientifically speaking, is almost not possible and
