Ciel was not certain anymore when his pain started and when it would end.

He laid still on the hospital bed.

He had become part of it now.

Obviously, since he had been lying down there for days.

The machines helping him to stay alive beeped beside him.

The sounds felt distant.

It sounded like the slow ticking of a wall clock to something that seems very inevitable.

He is not going to make it. Or at the very least, it felt like that to him.

It was obvious the poison had taken more toil on him. It had taken his strength from him.

He does not have clarity anymore.

His thoughts are now foggy.

He seems to have lost track of time.

But even at that, in his barely conscious state, he knew one thing was certain.

Rex knew he was now bedridden and would definitely be making some funny moves.

He was very sure about that.

His assistant, Alex, had also confirmed it when he came around that morning.

He had told him in a hushed tone.

He was holding a phone in one hand and a folder in the other that m

  • MY DISABLED HUSBAND IS MY PRETTY BOY?   Chapter 101: Mocking The Fallen.

    By the time Reina got to the house Roxanne lived with Ciel, it was late in the afternoon of the following day.As usual, she was taken away by the estate.The display of wealth on it never ceaze to amaze her.Especially the sleek lawn and the polished tone drive way.She stepped out the black sedan car she drove in with a confident poise and sway of her hips.Her sunglasses was perched on her nose and she had a sky smile on as she stepped out.She had only been here once or twice after Roxanne got married to Ciel.Reason why it always makes her spell bound.She never would have been here today, if the circumstances that brought her here did not happen.But here she was.Things are now different.She was beginning to have victory over someone that has proven every stubborn for her to defeat.She could smell blood in the water.She was dressed to kill.She wore a pale blue dress that was clinging to her skin like silk water.Her heels were also clicking confidently against the marble po

    After James's words, they were silent again.They were still also reeling from the residue of Evelyn's emotional outburst and also Derek's actions.Reina was still standing on one side, her arms still folded across her chest tightly.It was as if she was trying to hold herself together.James had grabbed a chair and sat down, his hands folded beneath his chin as he stared at them like children waiting for candy.The walls cast long shadows above them.No one was talking.Well, probably, there is nothing to talk about.At that moment, James's phone vibrated softly inside his pocket.He reached for it, checked it and saw a message.His lips curled with satisfaction as he read it.“Well, it seems there is some good news, Derek. The tide has finally shifted.” He said, breaking the silence.Derek looked at him wearily.He was curious.What is he talking about?“What do you mean?” He asked.James tossed the phone lightly back into his pocket.He adjusted himself before speaking.“Rex is on

  • MY DISABLED HUSBAND IS MY PRETTY BOY?   Chapter 99: Some Twisted Truths.

    The evident wealth on display at the Sebastien estate had always been revered by people.However, in spite of that, tonight, there was unease in the estate.There were murmurs among people walking through its balls and small talks behind its velvet curtains.There seems to be something happening that no one wants to voice out.Happening right within the very walls of the estate.And the centre of the murmurs was Rex Sebastien.He was looking polished as ever and pissed in a custom tailored suit.He looked very much like the heir he had imagined himself to be for a long while.With Ciel's critical condition in the hospital already gaining some traction among the upper echelons in hushed tones, his brother, Rex had wasted no time.He had swung into action like a man with a destined ambition.As if it is now the right time for him to fulfill his role.He was in a meeting with the empire's advisors, some who are Ciel's top aides and board members.Some of them had concern for ciel.Some s

    All of them were still silent after Derek had told Evelyn he had forgiven her.And in the silence that followed, Derek did something that surprised everyone.Evelyn, especially was quite shocked.He moved forward and hugged her.It was a very warm embrace.Her breath was caught as his arms wrapped around her warmly.She could not move for a moment, but later allowed herself to melt into his embrace, as her face pressed against his shoulder.The moment felt very strange.The warmth of their embrace was not because they were rekindling their love, or maybe he was showing a token of his total forgiveness as he just said.But maybe it could be described as a reunion after forgiving years of betrayal, which came about through remorse, and trying to glue the crack of how things used to be Reina just had her eyes wide opened at the whole spectacle.She was unable to process what was happening in her Presence.She wondered if all this was some kind of joke.Her father was hugging her mother.

    Her words had made the silence in the room more heavier.The tension was very evident now.There were varying suspicions in Derek's mind.Same as Reina.They both wanted to know the old secrets Evelyn had been keeping all this year.Secrets that may possibly connect her to James.They were looking at her now.Eagerly waiting for her to say something.Reina, who was naturally not patient, had to be.She folded her arms, tight across her chest, standing still.She waited for Evelyn to speak up.She didn’t speak immediately.Evelyn was standing in the center of the room.Her jaw was trembling, but lightly.She gazed at them all one by one, until eyes fell fell on Derek alone.Her husbandThe man with whom she had shared her life for the past 20 years.But now, her past had come to meet them.Well, she hopes it does not threaten her home.Her eyes softened as her shoulders sagged.It was as if the burden of the years gone by felt too much to marry.With a cracked voice, she said. “I am no

    Silence followed.Nobody seemed to say anything.Everyone was silent, some were confused, People like Derek and Reina.Derek stared at Evelyn with a scowl that couldn't hide the confusion behind his eyes. The air felt wrong, like something had entered the room the moment Evelyn and Reina stepped through that door. The moment Evelyn had frozen at the sight of James.Her surprise hadn’t gone unnoticed.And now it gnawed at him.He was still trying to process everything he had been told by James, about Roxanne's pregnancy, and the suggestion to take her out, and now, Evelyn came , and started acting surprised seeing James.He couldn't be more frustrated at the moment.“What is going on?” Derek finally asked, the question snapping through the tension like glass. “Why do you look like you’ve seen a ghost?”Reina glanced at her mother, puzzled. Evelyn didn’t answer immediately. She stood stiffly beside her daughter, eyes locked on James as if afraid he might disappear if she blinked.Ja

  • MY DISABLED HUSBAND IS MY PRETTY BOY?   Chapter 94: The Man Behind the Shadows.

    The air in the room felt heavy. The conversation that had just taken place there made it so. Derek was still thinking. He could not wrap his head around what James wanted him to do and the consequences if he failed to do it. His daughter is pregnant and even if it's something that conflicts with the plan he has with James, the thought of killing her and the unborn child is so absurd. He was already preparing his response for James by the time he came back from the restroom. His thoughts were jumbled together. The weight of everything pressed heavily on his chest. Then, he heard footsteps coming from the corridor. Familiar. The door opened, making a creaking sound. His wife, Evelyn, walked in quietly. Her eyes quickly adjusted to the dim lightning in the room. His daughter, Reina, followed closely behind her, with a suspicious look on her face, while folding her arms. They both halted abruptly in the doorway the moment their eyes landed on the tall figure sta

    James turned around and went to the restroom.The room was silent as Derek started thinking.The restroom door creaked closed behind James, its sound echoing through the walls like a bell.Derek stood motionless, still facing the doorway, as if half expecting James to return and tell him it was all a cruel test.But no.He had meant every word.Take her out.Kill her.Roxanne.His daughter.Pregnant.Derek swallowed hard. His mouth tasted like dust and ash, and yet his throat burned as if he’d just swallowed fire.He stumbled backward, finding the edge of the chair and sinking down into it with a weight that felt heavier than the years he had spent plotting, climbing, and winning. He put his face in his hands.All this time, he’d thought of himself as someone without limits. Ruthless? Yes. Selfish? Certainly. But not aimless. Never aimless. Everything he had ever done, the lies and betrayal, the way he had used Roxanne like a pawn in his deceitful games had always been a strategy.
