Aston:I watched the investigator nod to my words. We had finally made an agreement, and I hoped he was going to keep to it.“Great. It's nice working with you. I would make sure to wit for your response which would be when you promised right?”The investigator nodded, and I turned to Lucas.“You'll escort him out.” Lucas who was already aware didn't worry. He nodded, and escorted the private investigator only to return back with a smug look on his face.“Did you really have to be so are on him, I was beginning to worry about him then I was worried about the case.” He expressed, and I wore a serious expression.“It's not my fault. You see the issue is that I feel the need to understand the situation on ground is greater than I imagined. I want o unlock the truth behind her being all suspicious.”No one said anything afterwards, and we went back to work.“Hoes the company doing. I have no idea the affairs over there since I haven't gone there in a while.”I wasn't joking. Ever since th

Nicole:Was it just me, or was the day going faster, and I was closer to almost losing my mom. Soon it was going to be three days, and her situation will no longer be managed.My heart drummed, and I tried not to cry. I was starting to feel depressed inside. I knew my mother wouldn't survive so I was already staring to have myself for anything that would be involved at this point,I wasn't really sure I cared, all I wanted was simple. I wanted her to be alright, but the universe hayd me so much.My life her to be this hard. Everything was taken away from me, and now my mother was about to be added to the list.As I thought, something caught my attention. My page was beeping, and I found it was ste doctor incharge of my mother's case.“He's paging?” I felt a glimmer of hope but immediately killed it when I recalled his response to the request I gave yesterday.Maybe he was actually calling me to tell me about all I was going through. He wanted me to know more about how important the su

Nicole:I was seated in the dining room when Lucas came along with a serious expression. He offered me a head bow, and moved to talk to Aston. Unlike before. Thos wasn't like anything I had been through before. Everything that was said to him was normally said before me, but today was different.I didn't complained, I pretended to keep eating, and focused on my food rather than the both of them.In a few seconds, I heard Aston's voice, which caused me to raise my head.“I'll be going to the study now. I have a lot of work on my plate. I hope you understand, right?” He asked, and I nodded.Of course I did. I understood very well that he was a busy man, but the issue wasn't him being busy. The issue was with what? For some reason something told me it was more than a mere office job. It was something different.“See you later in the evening right? Since you'll be going to work today?” He said it more like he was questioning me. I guesswanted to be sure, and I nodded.“Yes, see in the ev

Nicole:I walked out of the doctors office, and that was when I noticed that he wasn't kidding. I thought I had fallen into a dream or something but it wasn't so.I was so worried about the way things had turned out. I was worried that he might have found out, but how? Did he trail me? Did he find someone to spy on me? Was he so worried that he came to my work place without my knowledge?Something was off. I didn't know how to face him now. I was so worried about getting to face him especially if he proceeded to ask me another question. I didn't know if I could answer the questions he was going to ask, but I was going to try because I knew it wasn't going to be as easy as I was expecting it to be. My hands wrapped around the whole thing. I needed time to move quicker than usual.Wait what was I saying? Did I really need to worry about how he found out? Even when that was really important, I noticed that here was still a way to go around it. He was going to ask questions, or maybe not,

Aston:I was shocked with what I saw. I didn't even know where to start. She had entered the study,and stood at the door for about five seconds before rushing towards where I was, and like an angel, she fell into my arms.I was speechless for a few seconds before I noticed that she was sobbing.“Hey hey…” I pulled her face away from my chest. “You shouldn't be doing this. You're a grown woman…” I teased her, and she laughed, still feeling like she was about to cry.I smiled at her, loving all that she was doing. Well I didn't know what else to say. It was as though my life had become even better. I wished there was a way to make things better.I needed time to study her. She was so hardcore, and at the same time fragile. I pressed my lips together and she finally looked into my eyes.“How do I say thank you?”“Um… well, technically, you just say it.” I teased her, and she pouted her lips. This was the first time in a while that I was seeing this nature of her. I had never seen her

Nicole:“He wanted to hear the truth?” I was shocked to hear what he had to say. I didn't even know how to start, and I paused. The food that was already in my mouth refused to go down my throat. Maybe because it was hard for it to go, or maybe it was just me.I swallowed. I was worried about the way things were. I didn't know to tell him the truth was so worrisome for me. I was breathing hard, and was confused. The way I wanted to speak out, but I felt like telling him was going to actually be bad.“The truth?” I asked, and there was no words. I didn't really know what else to say. I was feeling so worried because I feared he was going to hate me.“Yes the truth I want to hear the truth. Can you please tell me about it? I know you are going through a lot right now, and I have a feeling that you think I'll be angry, but I won't i just want to hear the full story.”Finally seeing that there was nowhere to hide, I decided to actually tell him. I placed my fork back on the plate, and he

Aston:The next day started like any other day but this time I felt more happy than usual. I was normally the kind of person who didn't care about the way things were, but this time, it seemed like things happened differently. I was glad that I was at least feeling nice. My life was in the right line, and I wasn't even worried.We prepared, and the next thing was for us to move to the car. Lucas was already waiting for us down stairs. It seemed like he already knew what we were going for.“Good morning…” he greeted, as they helped me into the car. Soon, they also followed, and we were on our way to the hospital soon enough.Today was the day of Nicole's mom surgery, Well, the good news wss that it was the day of the surgery. As far the bad news, I really didn't know what wrong with her. It seemed her mood changed this morning, or maybe it was the fear of her mother going into surgery.I took her hand in mine to comfort her,and I noticed how she flashed me a small smile which I knew wa

Nicole: I had taken a seat just like he has offered me, but there was something else. I was honestly so worried. I didn't know were to start from. I was finished, and teiedmy best to understand where I was going to stand at this point. I knew it wasn't really easy. My head ached due to the thoughts. I wasn't myself, I stood up every five minutes, trying to control the emotions that rushed through me. I was so annoyed. I didn't even know where to start. I felt there was a lot that was hidden from me. “You're stressjng again. You should calm down. It's just two hours. Surgery didn't Something that you should actually be rushed. You know how most surgeries with complications are the rushed ones? You have to understand that your mother deserves the best.” I heaved he moment he said something like that. I knew he had the right words to say to me. I wasn't really that bothered about it. I knew there was a lot of things involved. All I wanted at this point was simple. I wanted the do

Nicole's povI was still in thought as Lucas drove us to the place. I wanted to know what exactly was on his mind. Him saying he wanted to discuss with me was scary.My eyes looked through the window, and I used the scenery outside to console myself, but I wasn't sure I was in the right state of mind.My hands were shivering, and all I wanted was to hear what he had to say. I didn't know why, but for some reason, I felt strange about it.Finally getting to the place, I felt his eyes on me. Lucas helped him to get on his wheelchair and I pressed my lips together. I would have wanted to hear what he had to say from now on, but I decided to actually stay calm.It was more like a hotel, and I walked by his side while he wheeled himself."Did you actually reserve it as I asked you to?" He asked with raised brows, and I swallowed. Was the room really necessary, and what did he have installed?I panicked, but decided to trust him. Afterall, he said it was an important issue. I knew him, and

Nicole's pov.I had been staying home for a while, but it was finally time to do something about it. It had been one week, one week without work, and I was feeling lazy."You seem lost in thoughts." I heard his voice behind me, causing me to turn towards him. I instantly spread a smile on my face. Besides, I felt he wanted a reply because he waited there until I sighed."Yes I am. I was about to go look for you. I was wondering if you'll let me go to work. Today's the weekend, and it's basically me being home for a week. I miss attending to patients."He furrowed his brows. "You have been attending to me, and I'm your patient, so? I spoke to the doctor for a two week bed rest because your case was pretty---"His first statement finally dawned on me."What the hell do you mean by that? Are you trying to say that there's actually another week left?' I asked, and when he nodded, I sighed."I can't do that. I can't stay for another week. I'm going to lose it. You're busy with work, mom ha

Aston's pov.As I worked in my study, I found myself thinking about what I did. The way I inched close to her, wanting to plant a kiss on her lips was crazy.No.At the end, I plastered the kiss on her forehead instead of kissing her on the face directly. I was scared, and worried, that she might refuse.Whirling in thoughts, Lucas came into the office. He had a serious look on his face, and was strung at me, waiting for an order."Why are you just standing there, have a seat," I explained, making him move towards me. There was a smirk on his lips, but he still had something in mind."How is your wife feeling?" He asked when he finally found himself sitting opposite me."She's good. How about you?" I asked, and heard him laugh."I'm good, but you obviously are not. You seem bothered about everything I had just said to you. Don't you?" He asked, and there was no answer. Maybe because I knew what he was saying was true."Yes. I think I'm beginning to fall in love with her."He paused, a

Nicole's pov.I swallowed. Indeed things were about to get awkward. Why was she asking me such questions. I felt like the questions were way too deep. I mean, it was something else."Mom!" I screamed, and she laughed."What? I just wanted to know, please.. don't take it the wrong way.""Mom please. How do I tell you this? I mean, there are so many things that are involved. I don't even know what to say." I begged with my face almost turning red."So you both have definitely--""Mom no. It's embarrassing. Please don't do this. I'm already too shy.""There's nothing to be shy about this. You're a woman. You're a grown woman now, and you're married as well. What do you expect me to do?""I expect you to be no ask me such a question. I mean, there are so many things that are involved. You are more of the quiet type. I understand, but you don't have to be shy about all of this. I'm sure you understand all right?""Yes I do. I really do, but I felt strange."She rolled her eyes. "Just answ

Nicole's povI stood there, paleness creeping on my face. This wasn't what I was expecting. This wasn't what I wanted at all. My heart drummed, and I dabbed my eyes over the letter again to make sure I wasn't missing anything."You think you're happy, but you're not. I'm going to make you bleed."No words were said. I stood there, and swallowed. However, my head snapped to the door when I heard it being pushed open.Immediately I saw it, I folded the paper, and kicked it with my legs under the bed as I forced myself to wear a smile."Are you alright?" His brows were furrowed, his eyes fixed on me with an etched of concern on his face."Yeah, I'm fine." I answered immediately, causing him to squint his eyes. That suspicious gaze was what I was trying my best to avoid, but I seemed like I wasn't doing a good job.He had known me so well to know something was bothering me, but until I opened up, I wasn't sure he knew exactly what the problem was.My heart drummed, and I was worried about

Nicole's povLucas arrived later on, and it was finally time to return home.All the while, I just couldn't stop thinking about everything that occured at the hospital, but good-bye to them.The silence in the car echoed, and I remained in thoughts until his hands were wrapped around mine.I turned towards him, and saw how he passed me a smile that caused my heart to skip. I still didn't know what this feeling was. I felt really lonely when he wasn't around, and now him holding my hands made my heart skip in a good way."Are you okay? You seem to be in a lot of thoughts lately." He asked, but I smiled. What was I supposed to tell him? That he made me happy? That I wanted him to be with me for the rest of my life.That I didn't see this relationship ending soon? I knew I was slowly falling in love with a man that I married. My heart couldn't stop drumming, and I tried my best to understand why I was growing deeply attached to this man, but I guess he was just... He was just so nice to

Nicole’s povThe next morning went pretty fast, and I was so happy about the way things were. Finally going to leave this place, and there was the feeling of peace in my heart."Someone's happy this morning..." He teased, and I blushed.I was particularly ready to leave this place, maybe that would stop the experiences I had been having for a while now."So What's taking so long?" I asked, and he smiled rhgbing my head."Can you at least me patient? I know you want to leave her as quickly as possible, but let the doctors do their job, okay?"I nodded, feeling sorry for him. Despite the fact that Lucas has been the one supplying us with meals, I still had a feeling he was tired. It wasn't easy to sit with me all day. Especially because he didn't have an ability to stand."Aston, are you alright? You seem a bit pale," I explained. My eyes were fixed on him, my face etched with worry as well."I guess I'm stressing a lot. But it's nothing. You're leaving here today, and you're going to

Nicole's povI looked round the room and noticed the way things were. Everything seemed to be off. I swallowed, watching while Aston slept. He was awake just a few minutes ago, but must have dosed off due to Extreme fatigue."Who's there?" I asked with raised brows. I was feeling so worried about the way things were. My hands were shaking. I was peeking through the darkness to see who was there, but all I got was a shadowy figure.I need time to process what was going on."Who's there!" I screamed, my heart drummed like never before. I needed time to understand what was going on.Why was I the only one seeing this person."Aston! Aston!" I screamed, shaking him. I didn't know what else to do, but the worse part about it was that he was no even helping matters."Please wake up, please wake up!" I screamed. Why did I have a feeling that this was more serious than I thought."Aston please wake up, please..." I begged. I didn't know why, but I was extremely worried. I knew there was defi

Nicole's pov.I was worried for my mother's health, but Aston kept telling me she was in good hands."You don't need to worry. What do I need to do to assure you that your mother is fine. Lucas made sure the girl was good enough."I smiled, and felt happy that he was taking good care of my mother really well. My heart drummed, and I felt good."So what's wrong? Why am I not being discharged. It's been a day already. Wouldn't mom be worried.""She would, but the good news is that I told her we'll be going on a trip to help us good off.
