Lucy's pov;Daniel, "The doctor said Tyler will wake up in a little bit," he said softly as he took a seat beside me in the waiting room. He lifted my chin to make me look at him directly and smiled. "Don't worry, he'll be fine. He just needs to rest to get back on his feet." I tried to smile back, but it looked more like a grimace. My eyes are still swollen and my head still hurts, so it's hard to focus properly. He wiped my cheeks saying something about how they're getting redder, even though I've been wiping them for the past three hours. The skin under my eyes is raw from crying all day long. "I'm going to tell him." He retreated his hands asking, "What are you gonna tell him?" "The reason I married him. I'm going to tell him everything.""Tell him what?" He asked again like he didn't hear what I said earlier. "That I married him to get his company's confidential information." My eyes widened as soon as I realised what I was thinking. But my mouth wouldn't shut fast enough
Lucy's pov;Matt and I arrived at the museum in no time flat, it wasn’t that far of a drive from our apartment to the museum and we had planned on spending the day there , just me, Matt, and a small amount of our own belongings. The weather was pretty nice so I figured that would be okay. But then when we got there, it turned out that there was snow everywhere, so now my plans have changed quite drastically. I mean, how could I possibly enjoy any kind of art exhibit while the snowstorm is outside? I guess you can call it an unfortunate coincidence but it definitely didn’t help me with my decision making skills. So now, as we make our way through the crowds, my heart sinks lower and lower every second that passes, until suddenly I find myself standing by Matt, completely frozen in place as I look at the giant statue before us. It’s one of those statues with all the classical sculptures in the front entrance. My eyes are fixed straight ahead of me, not looking at anything or anyone a
Lucy's pov;"What are you doing here?" Tyler asked as he was eating his breakfast on his hospital bed. The last two days had flown by in a blur and it was hard to believe the time had passed so quickly. "Wasn't it obvious? I came to see you. How are you doing , by the way?" Tyler looked around the room before turning his attention back to me. He smiled at me softly before speaking again. "Won't your friend look for you if you're not with him?" I shrugged my shoulders before replying. "He's got work, don't worry.'' I said as I tried reaching out for some fruit but ended up grabbing an empty juice box instead. "So you're here with me because he got work suddenly ?'' He nodded slightly as he stared at me, obviously waiting for me to answer his next question. I thought for a moment before responding. "If you don't like me being here, then I'll leave." When I stood up to leave, he held my hand and said, "I was just kidding , relax. Please don't leave. It's been three days sin
Lucy's pov;The aquarium was full of life. The water was dark blue and clear, with a few small fish swimming amongst the coral, and some larger animals like sharks and stingrays, occasionally swimming near the surface. "Did you really buy any tickets for today?" I asked Matt, as we made our way down the hall from the lobby. He put his hand around my shoulder saying, "Yeah! of course I did!" His laugh echoed through the room. "We're going to have so much fun." He smiled brightly at me, squeezing my shoulder gently before letting go. "Don't worry. It's going to be great.""Sure," I said, trying hard not to let it show on my face. Since I was having a lot of trouble concentrating on the conversation that was supposed to be taking place next to us, I couldn't concentrate on the situation right now. As if he had felt my tension, Matt's expression grew more concerned. I nodded and continued walking with him exploring the different attractions until finally we came across the shark tan
Lucy's pov;At the hospital, they didn't allow me since it was past visiting hours. When I tried to leave, "Lucy! Lucy!" Daniel called out to me as I made my way to the entrance. I turned around just as he came out of the stairwell door."Hey, what are you doing here?" He asked. "I came to see Tyler." I answered. "You could have talked on the phone or something. Why bother coming all the way here?" he said. "Yeah but I want to meet him in person." "Why? What kind of questions do you have for him now?" "Did he say?" he shook his head and said, "Nope! I eavesdropped a little." I rolled my eyes and asked, "Tyler… Is he awake?" "Yeah," he sighed and said, "he's been talking about you all day." "About me, Why?" "Because of the question you raised against him. I don't get why you asked him such a question anyway! You know that he likes you, right? Then why did you ask him that?""Well, yeah, but he keeps saying that he likes me because of my honesty which I'm not. If he likes me
Lucy's pov;Matt took me to the hospital where Tyler is recovering from his leg injury. He said, "Tell him the truth." and left me in the lobby by myself. I climbed the stairs and came to the cooridor where his room is. As i took every steps towards Tyler's room, my heart felt like it was going to explode in my chest. When i finally reached the door of the room, i knocked twice on the door. Tyler didn't respond, so i let myself inside the room, which smelled like hospital chemicals. Tyler has a cast that covers part of his left foot. "Lucy!" his face brightenes up when he saw me, but then his eyes went back to the pain as the doctor told him he has to keep his foot elevated for 2 days. The doctor said it will make his recovery easier, because there was no pressure to move his foot around. I sat down next to him and put my hand through his arm. Tyler grabbed my hand with his right hand and squeezed it hard. He looked at me and his face softened. "What are you doing here? You sh
Lucy's pov:The waves crashed into the beach, splashing white water everywhere, as if to prove how powerful they were. As I was watching them, I felt myself being pulled down by a surge of memories. They weren't exactly memories, but they weren't exactly not memories either. They were like...a puzzle piece you find when you're playing video games and realise that it's missing part of the picture. I could feel the pieces in front of me, but I wasn't able to put the whole picture together with the pieces that I had yet. That is to say, I still wasn't entirely certain what my 'piece' was meant to be. It didn't make sense, though. Not even a bit. My life was pretty confusing to be honest. So many questions unanswered, so many problems looming over my head. But I wanted this feeling to stop. For one day at least. Even for just one second. This strange feeling that I just couldn't shake off, no matter how hard I tried. And the longer it stayed there, the more uncomfortable it made me
Lucy's pov;At school, Alex, "I thought you're dead when you didn't show up for the past week ," said with a smirk as he entered the classroom and plopped himself onto the desk next to me. He was one of those kids that everyone loved to hate. The kind that just had no respect for anyone else. I guess we're all like that in some ways. Casey, "How bad was your fever that made you miss half a week of school?" I sighed and put my head on my hands. The bell rang and class began but I just sat there in my desk chair watching them talk back and forth about who knows what. The teacher walked in and started our lesson. The whole time I kept staring at the clock, counting down every second until it hit 3.30pm. When 3.45 came around, I bolted out of the room before they could call after me. While I was walking to the entrance, I spotted Matt standing outside the gate. Why is he here? When I diverted from my way, Matt started calling out my name loudly enough for everyone to hear. It w
Lucy's pov;The next few days passed by in a blur as we made arrangements for our second wedding. As the day of the wedding approached, I felt myself growing more and more excited. Tyler and I had decided to have a small ceremony with just a few close friends and family members. The ceremony was held in a small garden behind our home, surrounded by blooming flowers and lush greenery. I wore the same white gown i wore before. As i walked out of the house, i saw a huge crowd in the garden. Didn't i asked him to keep it simple? Why did he invited many people? Jake took my hand saying, "I'll accompany you on the aisle." I was surprised to see him here so I asked, "When did you come from New Hampshire?" "Last night." I looked away from him and asked, "How did you know?" ""Tyler invited me. Hey, don't feel bad. I'm happy to be here at my sister's wedding." Tyler stood at the altar, looking handsome in his suit, as I walked towards him, my heart racing. "Lucy." I knew this voice. I turn
When i woke up, i was on Tyler's lap and i could see we're heading to somewhere in a car. I called out Tyler's name and when he see me, he said, "Don't worry. We're on the way to the hospital. We'll be there, soon." And kissed my forehead. When i looked at my stomach, it was wrapped with many layers of fabric but the blood was still gushing out. With the amount of blood loss, i don't think I'll be able to get better. I held his hands and said, "I have something to tell you, Tyler." "Lucy, please don't stress yourself -" i cut him off saying, "The reason i was scared to confess was that because I'm scared of left behind." "Lucy..." "Please don't stop me, Tyler." I paused and continued, "The people who played the important part in my life left me behind. My mother, my father, my only best friend. Everyone left me behind." Tears began to roll down my cheeks. "But you, Tyler, you made me feel different. You made me feel like I was important and that I mattered. I'm scared that if i t
Lucy's pov;As i was talking with Daniel, Tyler rushed into the house and came straight to me asking, "What happened? Why did you ask me come immediately?" I hugged him and cried in his embrace. He asked while patting on my back, "Lucy, what happened? Why are you crying?" Since i didn't respond to him, he turned to daniel and asked him, "What did the doctor say?" Daniel answered him, "I didn't take her to the hospital." "What were you doing then? Why is she crying? Did you had a fight with her?" Daniel said to me, "Answer him before he threw a punch at me." I pulled away from the hug and looked at him in his eyes. "I'm pregnant," I said, tears still streaming down my face. Tyler's eyes widened in shock, but he quickly pulled me back into his embrace and kissed the top of my head. "That's amazing news, babe," he whispered. "Why were you crying then?" I pulled away from him to wipe my tears and said, "I'm scared, Tyler. I don't know if I'm ready to be a mom. I don't know if I'll b
Lucy's pov;It's been a week since I've been feeling unwell. I get tired easily and I don't know why. Did I eat something expired? I ran to the bathroom when I felt nauseous. Tyler held my head saying, "Lucy, let's go to hospital." I said after wiping my mouth, "I'm okay. It's just something I ate. I took a tablet so I'll be fine." I changed my clothes and laid on the bed. Tyler checked my temperature and said, "Temperature is normal." "See, I'm fine Tyler. Don't worry about me." He laid beside me and said, "If you vomited once again. We're going to the hospital. Period." "Okay."I knew Tyler was right, but I couldn't shake off the feeling that something was wrong. The nausea would come in waves, and my body felt weak and heavy. As I closed my eyes, I felt Tyler's hand on my forehead, smoothing my hair away from my face."Lucy, are you sure you're okay?" he asked softly."I'm fine. Now go to sleep. Didn't you say you have an important meeting tomorrow?"That night, I slept restles
Lucy's pov;I tried waking Tyler but he didn't listen and covered the sheets over his head saying "it's a weekend, babe.""Tyler, wake up! Tyler, Let's go out." He lowered the sheets a little and asked, "Where?" I jumped on him and said, "It's a surprise!" Tyler pushed me off him, laughing, and said, "Alright, alright, I'm up. Give me a minute to get ready." As Tyler got dressed, I went to the kitchen to prepare some breakfast. I couldn't wait to take him out to his grandfather's house. I hope he won't get mad at me. Tyler came downstairs, fully dressed, and walked towards the kitchen. I had prepared him a plate of bacon and eggs, which he devoured in minutes. "So where are we going?" he asked, wiping his mouth with a napkin."It's a surprise," I repeated, grinning.Tyler rolled his eyes but smiled back at me. We got into the car and I drove him to the outskirts of town. It was a long drive, but Tyler seemed excited. Finally, we arrived at the biggest mansion in that town. It was
Lucy's pov;When I turned the wardrobe upside down, I finally found something in green, it looked nicer than I expected. It is a knee length bodycon dress. Once I got changed into it I paired it with big white drop earrings. What should I do with my hair? Should I do a ponytail or let it down? Finally, I got myself ready for the event! As I walked down the stairs, I saw Tyler enter the house so I called out his name and when he looked at me, he said, "Didn't I say dressing up attracts attention?" "You're the one who asked me to wear green."He walked up to me and said, "You look beautiful in that outfit. I bet everyone will look at you at the event. I don't want to take you to this event." I went closer and whispered in his ear, "But only you tasted me." And pulled away from him. He pulled me closer to him and asked, "Where did you learn to talk like that?""From you." And smiled at him."Do we really have to attend this party?" "Didn't you say it was important?""Yes it is." He
Ch- 139Lucy's pov;At the dining room table while I was eating dinner, Tyler asked, "Lucy, is something wrong?" I looked up from my plate and asked him, "What?" He pointed to my plate and said, "You hate greens, but you're eating them.""What?" When I looked at my plate, I put greens on my plate instead of shrimp salad. I drank a glass of water and put the shrimp salad on my plate.Tyler asked, "What is it?" I shook my head and said, "Nothing." "I won't give up until you say so. What is it?" I sighed and asked, "Can you cut the part I did for the commercial?" "What do you..." I cut him off and said, "I didn't think about the result and signed up for the money, but I thought about it recently. How will people react to seeing me in an advertisement?""If you're still thinking about this scandal, don't worry about it. It's been five years. Who else remembers that?" "I do. You do. Everyone who was involved remembers it." "Lucy, you have to stop overthinking. Okay, let's do th
Lucy's pov;"What are you looking at? Come in." Tyler carried my things into the house as I followed him inside. Tyler took me to his room and put me in his closet. "Why are you keeping my bag here?" He came closer, held my hand, and said, "From now on we will stay together in this room." "Can I stay in my old room?" "No, you stay here with me." He sat me down on the bed and leaned on my shoulder saying, "I missed you too." "I've never seen you so angry, so I was afraid that you would never like me again." "Where did you get the idea to deliver the flowers in the first place?" "Wasn't it obvious? I saw you take care of your garden many times. You take care of these flowers so beautifully. So I knew you wouldn't throw them away if they were flowers. Every time you looked for the meaning on the Internet I sent you flowers, right? When you see or think about a person every day, it either annoys us or we like them. Aren't I smart to use flowers?" "Yes, sending crimson roses is re
Lucy's pov;I didn't think I would get caught by Tyler. Besides, what is he doing here? Doesn't he usually eat at a fancy restaurant? Guess it's one of my bad days. After finishing the job, I got paid and left the restaurant grabbing my jacket. Walking down the sidewalk, I put both hands in my pockets. The weather is really strange. Hot as the sun during the day and cold as ice at night. By the way, what should I buy him for this time? Since i'm running out of money, I can't pay for expensive flowers. Because of that, i couldn't send him a bouquet and sent him only two or three flowers. Let's see if I can find the flowers cheap. I went to the flower shop where I usually buy flowers and looked around to find beautiful flowers at a low rate. Why does everything seem expensive today? Looks like I can only send him two flowers this time. I picked two white carnations and when I tried to give my money to the shopkeeper, someone held my hand. When I looked at that person, it was Tyler. I
