Ryan POV:I was losing my shit when she didn't answer any of my calls. That's why I wanted to talk to her earlier, but everything was so messed up. I lost the timing and later couldn't muster up the courage to tell her that I have been hiding things from her which means the most to her. Without wasting a single second, I called Samuel. "Yes, Mr. Weaver?" He asked me politely but I had no time for showing manners and being courteous."Where is Ana? Does she know?" Since I asked him to keep it secret from her too, that's why he was well aware of the situation. "Yes." He sighed, "She noticed Sarah's absence and insisted that I should tell her everything. I had no choice." I swallowed back a curse word. To be honest, I wanted to be the one to tell her the truth. Perhaps there would have been a way to make her see my point of view then. But Samuel has already told her everything. I don't blame him, I know she must have forced him for the details but what am I gonna do? "She isn't pick
Anastasia POV:When I arrived at my parents place, I locked myself in my room. Mom tried to ask me what happened, but I ended the conversation by saying that I don't want to talk about it now.She looked concerned. Well, who wouldn't be? I just left my husband's house... however, she didn't press the matter further. I stayed with Kai in my room, played with him, fed him, took a nap.. to be honest, he is the biggest distraction otherwise, I was sure that I would have died. Ryan is incorporated in my life so much that even one second without him passes like an eternity. I adjusted Kai's baby hair with my fingers while he made those baby sounds. "Why don't you like your Dad, hmm?" Although I make fun of Ryan whenever Kai starts crying when he is with him, I don't like that. I want them to bond and instead of being awkward around each other, they should be like friends. I thought that this wouldn't last long but even after 4 months, everything between them is the same. "Is it because o
Ryan POV:I never thought that Ana would be so cold hearted. She literally left me with the umbrella out here. I wanted to follow her and barge in the house, but I couldn't do that. That will make things worse. I sighed as my grip on the umbrella tightened. Before, I was a little tipsy but suddenly I felt completely sober. Nothing is working today... literally nothing. Instead of shutting me off, she should at least give me a chance to explain myself. After that, she can do whatever she wants. This feels really unfair. But I am not in the position to complain. I shut my eyes and pinched the space in between my brows while the headlights of the car from behind caught my attention. I narrowed my eyes to look at who is here and cursed under my breath, when I saw Zayn. She must have asked him to get me. That's for sure. "What the fuck, bro!" He rushed towards me and looked at me from head to toe. I was completely soaked. The droplets of water were dripping from my hair. "Are you nuts?
Anastasia POV:I woke up with a severe headache. It felt like I had been working the whole night, my body was stiff and it aches badly. I sighed and stretched my arms and legs and glanced at Kai who was sleeping peacefully after giving me a hard time last night, making me realise how much of a big help Ryan has been. He always made sure I was properly rested. I raked my fingers through the hair and groaned in frustration. There is no way I want to start my day with his thoughts. I sighed and got out of the bed before pulling the drapes from the window. His car was still parked there as Zayn took him in last night. I chewed my bottom lip at the thought that he would come to get it back. I checked my phone and my hands trembled slightly upon seeing a message from him.Ryan: I will give you the space which you need, but Ana please don't shut me off for a long time. I won't be able to bear this. I shut my eyes for a few seconds and went to take a shower. There are a few things which ne
Ryan POV:At first, I didn't plan on going to the office but soon I realised that I made the biggest mistake by staying at home. My mind kept on darting towards Ana and Kai. I sighed and went to the bedroom to change my clothes but I didn't dare to look at the bed or anything else which belongs to her but the irony is, even my soul belongs to her. That's why I keep on shutting my thoughts. However, I am failing badly. I glanced at my reflection in the mirror and for a couple of seconds, I couldn't recognise myself. There were huge dark circles around my eyes. My pale looked haggard and pale but I ignored all of that. I deserve this. I sighed and buttoned up the front buttons of my coat as I walked out of the room, where her fragrance was still lingering and imprinting on my senses all over again. I pinched the space in between my brows and looked at the time. It was almost 11am. "Mr. Weaver, are you going to the office? Why don't you eat something first?" Martha said to me and her
Ryan POV:Before I would lose the shred of patience, the door of the OT opened and the doctor walked out of there. He took off the mask and sighed upon seeing me. Perhaps it is because of the way I look. My hands trembled as I tried to speak but couldn't. "She is fine." I have never been so relieved in my life before. Those three words, they were like a life have been given me all over again. "There was a rupture in her liver. We have stitched it up and stopped the bleeding but in case of haemorrhage, there are complications which can arise later too. So, we will keep her under observation and see how this goes on." He politely explained everything to me. Now that I know that she is fine, all I want to do is to see her. "Can I meet her?" I heard my voice coming from the depth."After that we will shift her to the ICU. But she will be under anaesthesia for a while." He said to me, patted my shoulder and left. While I almost fell on the bench. I don't know how I have been holding on
Anastasia POV:I still can't get over the incident. Never in my wildest dream, I thought that someone could do such a nasty thing to me, especially Sarah. The betrayal, the hurt which she has made me taste, I am going to feel it on my tongue for the rest of my life. I laid in the hospital room, listening to the beeping sound of the machines and watching Ryan. The man sat for one second. He kept on checking if I am comfortable, if I need anything and now this is getting on my nerves. "You are becoming a pain in the ass, Ryan." I said through the gritted teeth. The dose of painkillers was reduced and those stitches were killing me. "I am sorry." He sighed and pulled the chair closer to the bed before sitting there. I glanced at him and clearly saw the nervousness on his handsome face. His leg was moving frantically and from time to time, he was chewing his lower lip. I know what is making him so anxious and to be honest, I am not mad at him anymore. The second, I saw my life flashing
Anastasia POV:Laying in the hospital for a week and doing nothing isn't something which I ever want to do again. Even when I gave birth, I wasn't on such an intense bed rest. Furthermore, my husband wasn't making anything easy for me. He kept on hovering around and didn't let me lift a finger. "Ryan, please sit. You are making my head spin." I defeatedly said as he kept on moving around and talking to someone on the phone. It would be a lot better if he would just go to the office. "Sorry." He mouthed the word and sank on the couch in the room while I leaned back into the pillow and glanced at him. He is sexy as hell when he is giving orders to his subordinates. Working Ryan is my favourite. Period!"Ana-" He said, pulling me out of my thoughts. "Hmm?" I blankly stared at him. For some reason, his lips curled up into a smile. "You know, sometimes your thoughts are really loud." He touched the tip of my nose, making me scrunch it."What is it?" The way his brows were knitted, it
