Substitute Bride Of The Disabled CEO Chapter 43
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 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 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 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 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

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 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

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 woke up feeling really strange. My body ached, and so did my head. “Aston…” I tried calling with my eyes closed, but it seemed like that wasn't really helping, and when I opened my eyes to find him there, I realized that he wasn't in the room. My throat was dried, and I forcefully pushed myself up to be able to get to the place. That was when there was a sound that caught my attention. The door pushed open, giving a creaking sound that caught my attention.However, as I turned, I saw that it was Aston walking in. He looked good, and seeing him on his two feet made so much sense.“Nicole….” He called the moment he saw me, there were so many things on his mind, I could tell from the way he was looking at me. He rushed towards where I was seated, and sat close to me, his eyes staring directly into mine.“My goodness… are you sure you're fine? You look like you need–” “Water…” I interrupted his words, my heart drumming. I placed my hands on my chest and tested my back

Aston:Lucas drove us home, and the moment we got home, I helped myself out of the car. I was in a hurry to make sure I helped Nicole with the door. As soon as I opened the door, I flashed her a smile. “I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time, I'm so glad I have the time to do it today…” I expressed, and she blushed. However, her expression suggested she was weak. As soon as she got down from the car I was forced to help again but not in a way I had liked. I helped her by crossing her hands over my shoulders because she suggested it since my legs were newly working again. “Much better now?” I asked, and when she nodded, I frowned. “I wanted to carry you because you're stressed, but you prefer to walk.” Nicole ignored his words, and passed him another smile for a reply, but as they approached the main entrance, the door opened, and Nicole's mom burst out, rushing to hug her. Luckily my grip on her was strong enough to ensure she didn't fall, and I allowed them to have their

Nicole:I was at the abandoned house, and didn't know what else to do. My heart drummed, and I was weak. However, as the boss watched me with a gun pointed to my face. I was shaking, and it seemed a timer was on. However, a junior worker of his came close, and signalled his attention. He stood up, his eyes still staring in my eyes. I swallowed, watching as everything unfolded, and the only thing I noticed after the both of them finished talking was the fact that he nodded his head continuously. There was a lot involved, I could tell.“What's going on?!” I asked when the silence could no longer be understood. I wanted to know what exactly was the matter, but the way they looked at me showed they didn't want me to know what was going on. All I noticed was that the boss was walking away with the assistant. I was worried about the way things were. My heart drummed, and I tried to understand herself. My mind panicked, and I looked around, trying to break out. I wiggled my hands, but

Aston's povI was still worried. I knew there was a lot involved, but what I wanted now was for her to at least call again so they could track the call to the location."Lucas, get the money ready..." Lucas furrowed his brows. "Really?" My face showed concern. Lucas didn't expect me to give that kind of response. A sigh left his lips, and he inched closer to get an understanding."It's the money they want,and no amount is greater than her right now, so you better do as I have said before I get angry with you." "I'm not trying to throw your orders off, but I have one question. Why are you getting the money ready when---" I immediately raised my hands up to interrupt whatever he was saying. At this point, I didn't really care. I had other things in mind. I wanted her to be right where I could see her. "It's bait. If they see the money, they'll be willing to release her, but if they see the police, then there's going to be a massive problem. You have to understand, they already ask

Aston's povWe were all at the same place, the police station. There was so much tension. Nicole's stepmother, and father remained calm, and they seemed to not be in the mood to say anything.“Yes, it's time for you to hand over your phones. We'll go in and come right out. Do you understand?”They nodded, handing over their phones to the police. As I sat there, Lucas behind me, I couldn't stop sighing. The fact remained that I was waiting for the police to find something that could implicate them.Everyone was anxious about it. Even her stepmother didn't seem safe as well. She was sweating, and pacing around with her daughter.Just then, my phone rang. It seemed like a strange number, and I furrowed my brows. However, when I noticed there was a possibility that it could be Nicole calling, I quickly picked up, placing the phone on loudspeaker.“H-ello, Nicole ?” We asked with raised brows, and there was nothing else. I tried my best to be calm, but I really couldn't concentrate.I tri

Nicole:I stared at the man with worry on my face. So many things went on in my mind, but a response to give him was what I didn't know. What did he mean by comply? I knew he meant doing what they said, but what was it exactly?“Stop staring and start talking. Are you going to do as we have said or you want to be stuck here for a very long time? We are capable of doing that. This is your last chance.”I nodded steadily. I didn't want a situation whereby things would get out of hand because I didn't want to cooperate. I was hoping that my cooperation would make a way for me.“Y-yes…” I stammered, when I noticed his eyes were still locked on mine when I nodded as an answer.Then he immediately smirked. “Good. Since that's what is going on, I'm going to ensure you are able to leave this place on time, but you have to do something for us.”The smirk on his face got me scared, and I swallowed consistently. I wanted him to explain to me what I needed to do.“I need you to actually call your

Aston:I was still staring at them, rage filling my mind. I knew what was happening. I knew that she was involved as well. I tried my best to control myself, but it was obvious that I couldn't."Are you talking now or should I leave you alone, rather, make sure the police would go after you?" I asked for answers with raised brows, and she immediately pressed her lips."It's not us. We haven't even heard from her since she got married to you. Yes, like I said, we pushed her into a marriage with you, but why would we want to kidnap her? Come to, think about it.." she urged, while her daughter was behind her."Speak for yourself. I don't trust your daughter. It's obvious she doesn't know what she's doing. I have to admit it. It's crazy to see that she's hiding underneath your shadow when she has a mind of her own, don't you think?" I asked, and she immediately pressed her lips. Her heart drummed crazily, and she tried to control herself.It wasn't easy, and she was trying her best to not

Aston's pov"We need to leave now..." I said, rushing up what he had given to me. He also rushed up his, and then got me ready by helping me out of the room.We quickly left the hotel and rushed towards the car. He helped me get on, and he drove towards the place. I was quiet, and didn't know what else to say. I was feeling a bit strange about everything.If I found her I would never let her out of my side again. I was going to make sure she was followed by guards who keep me updated at all times.We got to the mansion gate, and we noticed Nicole's mom was already there. She was ranting, and screaming at the top of her voice while the caregiver was by her side."Mom?" I called her, and held her hands. She sighed as soon as she saw me."They refuse to let me in, but maybe they'll let you. Please help me find my daughter. I don't know how else to say it, but that's what I can say. They are certainly involved."I nodded, wanting to calm her down. "We are all tense, mom, but you have to c

Aston's povIt was the next day, and I was worried even more. I couldn't think, or focus. I needed time to think about the whole thing. I was worried, and tried to control myself.I had to book a hotel close to the crime scene. Which was crazy. I needed to understand what exactly was going on, and who must have planned it.Each time we called the police, they kept saying that she had to be missing for at least twenty four hours."You're worrying too much. She's fine. Maybe she needed time away.” he explained, and I sighed."She's not. We don't know exactly what's going on. We really don't know, and I can't think straight. I didn't even get a wink of sleep.""I'm aware, and it's almost noon now, and you still haven't eaten. Would you like me to bring something to you?""Something?" I asked with raised brows, and there was no words. I was trying to understand what was happening. It was as though he didn't know what the situation was."Are you serious? I'm telling you my wife is missing
