Grace Miller“Frank, I want to go home.”“Shh, just ignore them. Act like you are not affected after all they have known you as my wife.”Frank handed her a glass of wine just to make sure that she might be calm by having it on her throat.“If you let them judge you then you are guilty. Chin up babe, you are the best among the rest here.”Grace just sparingly smiled and held tightly on his hand but it felt uncomfortable to see the stares of the people at the party.“Just enjoy the party babe and always be on my side.” Frank added and smiled to her.Grace was having a hard time fighting this discomfort of being surrounded by many people and seeing them like having a judgement to her was killing her from within. But she has to fight it and as long as Frank was still there for her, she should have fight this kind of feeling she have in her mind.“Babe I need to go to the powder room.” Grace walked toward the hallways where the receptionist pointed the direction for the powder room.But t
“Stop it! Ouch!” Grace Miller tried to hold back her hair but she could not convince Laura to stop. Instead she tried to kick her from the back but she could not even reach her.“You f*cking deserve it because you are such a whore!” Laura stumbled and pulled more of Grace’s hair from behind. She could not believe that she was holding Demir’s hand and staring at her like a gawking bird from the wild.Laura added. “Don’t you ever touch my husband!”Demir quickly tried to stop Laura and even removed her hair from Grace Millers’ but he could not even convince her instead the more he tried to stop her, made Laura become more aggressive.“You are out of your hand!” Demir hold tighter on her hand and even tried to pull out her finger through Grace’s hair.“This is absurd, Mr. Krumpus! S-stop your wife!” Grace insisted and still in the midst of letting go from her hands. Then, she took a chance by seeing the angle of Laura and Demir. She twisted a bit more and saw the possibilities but she co
GraceI don’t understand why was he acting up like this. Frank was quite weird when it regards to Demir and Laura.“Just trust me babe. I can play them with my fingers.”Good thing he easily believe in me. Was he? I sighed and held Frank’s hand while we both enjoyed the whole night and finally I am at peace because Laura was not here anymore.“You are my best friend, remember?”It suddenly haunted me with the thought of Laura to me. I did not know that she valued our friendship before. I turned and gently removed the arms of Frank.Finally we’re home and my husband was now peacefully sleeping in our bed. I walked toward the kitchen and made some tea. I placed my hand on my chest because I could the fast beat of it.Inhaling deeply and gently massaged it. I even forgot to see a doctor these days although they had me some medications still I could not even feel the effect of it.“Are you okay babe?”“Yeah, I am just having tea. Do you want some?”Frank shook his head gave me a kiss befo
The nurses and doctors were in a hurry to bring the things they needed in case of another emergency surgery for Grace Miller. While Frank was outside the emergency room and pacing at the hallways.“Damn it!” Frank mumbled and was impatient already. He never expected that she would have another episode. He tightened his fist and was hoping that she would be fine at this time.“Defibrillators” doctor said and was in a hurry to perform it because he knew it was life and death.Nurses were waiting for her to survive this episode once more. They did everything they could and for a second they heard her pulse.Everyone was happy to see the line went back in track. The doctor went out from the emergency room and saw Mr. Miller waiting.“Good thing you decided her to be here in the hospital.”Frank furrowed his brows. “What do you mean by this?”“She almost dies because of heart attack, Mr. Miller.” Then the doctor removed the mask. “You have to be careful with her and having another episode
FrankSeeing here right now in front of me was creating more hopes from the other side. She must get up and be with me. I waited for her and now that I have a chance to let her feel the love that she deserved.“I love you.”I whispered as I lean toward her. This must be the most horrifying situation for me, and I wasn’t prepare for this I never thought she would have a cardiac arrest. She must have been burning out herself even since I allowed her to work back.The corporate world doesn’t fit her. I tightened my fist while staring her situation now. But I should keep my promise to her. I have no choice this time and I did not want to see you like this. Started the day that she worked with Demir Krumpus was becoming more stressful.I knew how it felt to work with someone you hated the most but she has to endure it, and because of that her health compromises like now.“Babe?”Her finger moved and I knew she could hear me. At least the worried in me became less because I know that soon s
“Good evening Mr. Krumpus, this way please.”Tall, well trim beard and the elegance on his walk made it clear to every person in the restaurant that he was not just an ordinary man. Mr. Krumpus did not mind all the employees who greeted him. He walked straight at the room where the concierge took him.“Kindly wait for Mr. Miller, he’ll join you here soon.”The woman smiled and served some cold drinks to Mr. Krumpus.Mr. Krumpus was just staring at the woman and his eyes were pinned on his button chest and made him stunned by the woman. He lightly shook his head.“What is this kind of thing?” he asked with a hoarse voice and showed displease by the taste of his drink.The woman smiled. “It’s chamomile tea, one of the finest drink that we have here in the restaurant.”Threw this thing and I do not need it. I want a glass of vodka.”Then the lady slightly bow her head and said. “I am sorry Mr. Krumpus but this is a find dine restaurant and we don’t serve vodka.”Mr. Krumpus folded his ar
FrankIt felt like a lost soul around here after talking to the doctor of Grace I did not know how I would react normally. I inhaled deeply and was now frightened to face her. I wanted to make it more light at this point and I was thinking the positive way that the result of her laboratory test was not in a harm way.“Babe,” I whispered and hugged her immediately after realizing that I missed her so much.“Frank? Where have you been? I have been waiting for you and so many men were in here a while ago.. I though you were…”Grace could not continue her words, and the feeling of lost was still in her head at the moment. She sobbed in my arms and let out the feeling that she kept inside.“What’s wrong, babe? Is there something hurting? Should I call the doctor?”I was in panic seeing her crying and no words from her. I sighed deeply and just hugged her tight, maybe she wanted a good hug, or someone to cry on. These thought ran through my head and feeling the warmth of her body made me ea
Grace“Who is that?” I curiously asked after seeing his phone vibrated and unregistered number appeared on his phone.He quickly shook his head. “Nothing, it was just a prank call.”My brows frowned and so I answered it by myself, Frank stopped me but he wasn’t successful to do it. I listened from the other line and finally heard the voice.“Selin Johnson?”I let out a deep sigh, it was Sena my best friend. I gasped and tried to cover my mouth so she would not hear any words coming from me.“Look, Selin. I just want to say I’m sorry because I left you alone. I heard what happened and believe me I wanted to help you that time but Demir threatened me if I did.”My eyes widened after hearing it from my bestfriend. I have so many questions in my head but I just want to keep it to myself from now on.“I’ve heard about Mr. Johnson and I am sorry for your lost once again. I hope you moved on and your baby must be very happy to see you every day smiling.”Tears suddenly fell on my cheeks and
