Nicole's pov.I was worried about the way things were. It seemed as though my life was changing. Well, I didn't know how else to forgive him.I noticed he was sorry, but I still felt pained by the issue."Maybe sleeping would do me good," I explained, and immediately went ahead to lay down, but all throughout, I discovered I couldn't sleep. My heart drummed, and I tried so much to be myself, but I didn't help.My life seemed backwards, and I tried to look for a way to work things out.After so many thoughts, I came up with an idea. Tomorrow was my day off at work, and I was going to surprise him, and apologize at the same time.I realized that he was being the bigger person by apologizing.My heart drummed, and I immediately tried my best to get some shut eye.The next morning, I woke up early before all the maids, and tried my best to make different kinds of meals.Once that was done I strolled towards the guest room. I was feeling strange in my heart. Was it the fact that I was fee

Nicole's povI explained to her, but my mom's eyes widened, and I was tempted to smile. I knew she was shocked, but then I was happy I got married to him."Are you sure about what you are saying? You got married? What year is this?" She asked again, and I sighed."Well, it's not that. I want you to understand that I had to. It's a really long story.""Long story? I would love to hear what you have to say. Why did you get married at such a time? What happened?"I sighed. Did I really want to tell her all the things I had been through?"Nicole?" I asked with raised brows. I was really worried about the way things were. I didn't know how else to express it.My heart drummed, and I was calmed. I was hoping my mom wasn't going to be so inquisitive, but I guess I had to tell her everything."Um.." I sighed."I wasn't supposed to marry him, but my stepmother wanted me to marry him in his place."She widened her eyes. "Really?"I nodded. "And just to tell you, he's not ummm.. he's disabled."

Nicole's pov.I was already in the hospital, checking up on my new patient when I got a page from the doctor incharge of my mom's case.I wouldn't lie, seeing that page got me worried, but I decided to be calm. I knew nothing wrong was going to happen. She was already fine. Or was she?I stayed calm, wrapped up with the patient, and tried to rush to his office. I knocked on the door, and upon his words, I walked in."You paged me? Is anything wrong with my mom?" I asked, but he furrowed his brows, laughing afterwards."Something wrong? No there's not. I just wanted you to sign your mom's discharge papers.""What?!" I exclaimed, and he nodded."D-discharge?" I stammered and he nodded. The truth was that I had not thought about what to do if she was actually allowed to leave the hospital. I hadn't even discussed it with Aston yet."Now? Can you hold on for a few hours doctor? I really need to speak to someone about it."He nodded, and I excused myself from his office. My chest drummed l

Aston's pov"Yes, a caregiver. I know how you feel. You are probably not okay with the caregiver idea, but it's all right. I know. The only thing I'm concerned about here is your daughter. If there's a way to make everyone happy, believe me, I will. But your daughter needs to be healthy."I said all this when I noticed how quiet she has become. Her expression was blank, and she heaved."I don't think I have a problem with you getting me a caregiver. I've told my daughter countless times that I can take care of myself, because she's just too stubborn.""Nicole can sometimes be stubborn at times, but she's the sweetest soul I actually know."She smiled. "Feel free to get the caregiver anytime you want, and if that's too much of a hassle, I can manage."I smiled at her. "Thank you so much ma'am. Thank you for understanding.""Thank me? I should be thanking you! You are an amazing soul, and the one who saves my life. I am glad my daughter got married to a responsible man like you."I felt

Aston:"Nicole..." I called gently, trying to hide my panic. Lucas didn't say a word. He was the one behind the wheel, and I didn't know what else to do than try to stay calm.By the time we got to the hospital, he helped her get into the stretcher bed, while I was seated in the car, watching how the nurse wheeled her away. I had never felt so pained in my life. I wanted to be right there. To be by her side at all cost, but I seemed I wasn't so lucky.I sat until Lucas returned, and helped me back on the wheelchair. However, I had a strong frown on my face. I fisted my hands, and my actions didn't go unnoticed by him."Are you alright boss?" He asked, and I paused, taking a moment to draw in the air. I know I was mad at myself. I didn't even know how else to make things work out well."I couldn't be there for her." I spat, my tone hard. My hands were fixed, and I tried to control the anger, but I felt myself hurting inside."It wasn't your fault. You are..." He trailed in order to not
