Chapter 14 : The protective husband
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56"It never happened to me before", she keeps ranting. "I was never humiliated. It was so embarrassing. They were laughing at me"
As the pace of her sobs increases, I take her again in a tight embrace.
"Ssshhh. No one will ever dare to do this to you", I caress her hair. "Stop crying", I cleaned her tears again when she looks up at me.
Her reactions change drastically as if she can finally realise what's happening. She's still in my arms and I don't want to let her go. She peers deep into my eyes, before driving them away. She parts herself from me and I feel suddenly empty.
"Well", I clear my throat. "You need to have a bath before you have the meals. Come on, get up"
She obeys quickly to my surprise as I smile at her. Collecting her clothes, she goes into the washroom. I attend to my phone which has been buzzing for a long time. I cut it and switch it off.

I ask Mrs Fisher to bring the dinner to my room.

Terror fills inside me as a crowd starts forming around us in the corridor."Christian," I yelp when I know he's not even listening to me.He punches the next guy again across his jaw while dealing with the first one. Those guys are indeed physically weaker than Christian which leads them to wounds.One of them abruptly attacks Christian and punches him in the face.

IvannaI'm left thunderstruck by his sudden action. He has never talked to me like this before. His cords are visible in neck when he glares at me."I—""Did you seek my permission before touching my stuff?" He sneers."I was just—" I try to elaborate, finding my voice to speak."You were just what?" He howls again, coming closer to me. It fills me with terror and I shiver. "You don't like me to interfere in your life. And you're interfering in my stuff. Why so double standard, Ivanna Rozario?"My eyes start burning and welling up. I gulp down, peering into his dange

ChristianI hope it's a prank. Though I don't like pranks, I badly want it to be a prank."I hope you know what you're saying", I try not to sound harsh."Yes, I know", her rose petal lips shiver. I don't know if I should get pissed at her words or stare at her. However, right now her words are pissing me off."You want to go back to Texas?" I ask again."Yes", she doesn't look at me."Do you think that's possible? And just leave it. Tell me what made you take such a decision", I groan.Even though I don't like discussing personal stuff in the office, I can't help arguing over it right here."It's my decision. I don't think I need to give you any explanation", she says.I slam the files, making a huge sound that quivers. She finally looks at me with two fearful eyes as I clench my jaw and storm towards her."You need to, Ivanna. As I remember there was nothing in the contract which said we won't behave like actual

However, today I feel it was intense. I shouted at her and scolded her like this for the first time. And her tears were telling me that she was hurt.Nonetheless, she should stop being so adamant all the damn time and stop forcing me to be a jerk."Call Ivanna", I say, slamming myself on the dining seat."She won't come", Mrs Fisher says, causing me a frown.

Ivanna "Finish the whole thing," Christian groans, gazing at my plate. I am hungry indeed but it's hard for me to swallow the entire lasagna alone when my head is still burning in wrath. "Don't spy on my food now. I know how much to eat" "No, you don't. You have shrunk so much in a month," he says, looking down at me. "You were much chubbier on the wedding day" I widen my eyes at him. Does he literally measure my body with his shameless eyes? I regret not adding another clause in the contract. Don't stare at me. Huh! But will he abide by it? "I thank myself for getting bulkier," I shrug. "It's been a month since I haven't visited the gym. It's a nightmare for a gym-goer to gain weight" "So? Why didn't you go? Did I stop you?" He blurts out. "No, but you have definitely made it impossible for me to step out in a public place. I don't like people to stare at me as if I'm an a

Ivanna I don't talk to him, I don't argue with him, I don't even expect anything good from him. The moment he broke the second rule of the agreement, I lost all the expectations. That agreement means nothing to him, nor my decisions. I have stopped going to the campus since I'm sure I can never complete my PhD here. Instead, I'm looking for work now. As soon as possible, I badly need a job to start working and pay the debt and get rid of this marriage. Days keep passing as I keep my attempts on to find a high paying job since the amount of the debt can be huge. I don't even know how much my father had taken from him, nor do I want to talk to Christian about it. I haven't talked to him since that night. Every night I sleep on the couch and find myself on the bed. Still, I keep dozing off on the couch. I don't wanna have dinner with him but he has some tough arms to carry me anytime and shift me here to there like a tennis ball. It feels

Ivanna "Say it," I sigh, keeping my eyes down as he comes closer to me. "Can you fulfil it?" "Sure. I can do anything. I'm going to Texas," I say, rolling my confident gaze at him, though my heartbeat is rapidly growing. "Not you, Ivanna. We," he replies as I frown, not understanding what he means to say. "We are going to Texas. Together" His words startle me as I question myself if it's actually true what he just said. I can't believe it. "Wh— what?" "I'm serious. I'm coming with you to Texas, Iv," he pulls

Ivanna I land in Texas with a huge smile on my face. I inhale a deep breath finally, tossing my eyes at the city I always crave. "Madam, the vehicle is in that way," the butler calls me as I nod. The butler, Colton and Kane have accompanied us to Texas. It's kinda embarrassing for me to realise that this alien literally shifted the entire staff. He's crazy. Mrs Fisher along with the house helpers stayed back then. I'm definitely gonna miss all of them. The thought of Christian and me staying all alone is already giving me minor attacks. He's on the call for an hour now. Not for a second, he left the call during the flight. It pissed me off at first but then Kane told me how stressful the entire p

JohnGetting married in the 50s isn't that strange anymore. But for me, it was— for a man who believed his marriage would last forever and then believed he would never marry again. I stood before the mirror as Ryan helped other groomsmen with their last fit."You all look pretty handsome. Ready to leave. But I wish Kevin had that time to get a good fit. Your suit sucks!""I feel better anyway", Kevin snarls. I chuckle while fixing my bow tie, watching my sons in their 20s still fighting like toddlers. It's been a blessing for me to have a family which didn't break even after the biggest disaster. And maybe it was because, in our family, it had always been us. Me and my two boys. Their mother wasn't there. The death was just a formality. I didn't really change that much. My boys were happier than ever after she died. It's really mean of me to think that way but it was the truth. They were traumatised because they were kids. As they grew up, I realised they had a better and healthier

TiffanyI can't figure out how to react and what it's all about because I don't wanna assume anything unreasonable. He's on his knees with a damn ring.It means— God! I can't— comprehend it. My eyes flutter open at his handsome face. No words come out of my mouth. I'm at a loss of words."I know you're shocked! And I'm sorry if I scared you with this sudden—" he doesn't complete, yet keeps his eyes straight into mine. "But I couldn't keep this longer inside me, Tiffany. I had known a long time ago that I needed you in my life. Forever! And I'm not scared to ask you that—"With that pause, my heartbeat stops and my entire body shivers when I wait for him to complete."Will you marry me?" I feel goosebumps littering all over me with those words. Did he really ask me for marriage? It takes me a while to process. His eyes are full of fear and hope and I'm left in shock.

TiffanyTime indeed flies like air and it happened in my case in a better way. In the best way, actually. I started my job in the daycare centre with all the lovely kids around which made my life less monotonous after Ryan and Kevin left. They are doing good in their new school and John has also settled into his new office over there. I and Sebastian balanced our life beautifully, supporting each other. As days and weeks passed, our love grew stronger. Among everything, I was happy with the fact that I have my identity now. A good identity.

In a year, I was promoted to manager of the daycare centre, life couldn't be any less beautiful. It's been two years, I and Sebastian are together and we are living our best life.

TiffanyWe spent the last two days painting the house and I can't describe how beautiful it came out. We did some changes like replacing the furniture and donating some. If everything goes well, I'll be here in less than three days.John has finished all the preparations in Hong Kong and he's leaving the day after we decided to move in. It all happened so fast but I'm glad that John is recovering. It's been eight months since the tragedy and I know it's gonna take years for him to overcome this. I'm happy for him but I would be happier if there was any chance that he finds someone to love him as much as all of us found a person to love.It sucks and I hate the fact that all his life he never found someone like that.I and Sebastian carry the portrayal I had in my room for years. It's a huge one and Sebastian suggested we should place it in the living room because it's beautiful.

Sebastian"Really, Sebastian? I have never seen you this excited before", Georgia says as I show her some themes I'm confused with and I end up telling her the whole plan. "Isn't it something to be excited about?" I blurt out. "She's moving in with me. Isn't it amazing? People can't even go past dating and we are really moving in!" I tell her and she smiles wider, sitting in front of my desk."That's true", she says. "I'm just wondering what you would do once you guys announce the marriage!" she laughs but on a serious note, it makes my heart stop for a while.She pauses, looking at me. "Sorry. I should not have said that?"I chuckle. "Nah! Nothing like that. I just spaced out when you talked about marriage""Ah! So, that means you're thinking about it", she leans to the desk. I scratch the back of my head with an awkward smile. "I could marry her the moment I saw her! But hell! I'm not repeating any mistakes from the past. Maybe, I'll wait for a while before proposing to her. And t

Tiffany We stop by the nursery. It's one of the biggest nurseries in the city which I can completely believe by the way it looks. The boys run into the green surrounding and I and Sebastian slowly walk to see the plants. One of the workers accompany us, showing us all the kinds of plants we could use for decor. "I want the real ones", he says as I scan those plants which need no sunlight. They would be perfect for indoors."These are real ones too. These are just indoors", I say, watching his expression change. "But I still don't find the realness in them. You can take these. I'll look for others", he walks away to find his REAL plants as I shake my head at him in disbelief.We load all the plants we have got for the decor and Ryan and Kevin took two small ones to plant in the yard. Even though they won't be staying here, they wish to see it all grown up when they would occasionally visit. After that, we stop by a restaurant to have lunch. Surprisingly, Sebastian didn't suggest h

Tiffany We talked a lot today. I'm glad that I took this whole day out for him because we needed to have this conversation. I have finally decided to move in with him. Nonetheless, it'll come with more challenges and I'm ready for it. This decision will not only make our relationship stronger but also give me a world of my own. I can't wait to finally live my life in my own conditions and happiness. Sebastian asked me if he could help me anyway. But I refused to take any help from him as I did with John. It's my call to explore and look for opportunities which I'll be doing from today. I'm thinking about having a conversation with John again. I want him to change his decision of holding back until I settle down. Because that's impossible. I'll need a lot of time to clean the mess and organise my life and I think I'll surely do it if I have Sebastian.I'm glad that Sebastian understood me and more than that he trusted me enough.
