Chapter 64
RED'S POV
I scoffed as I reread Eric's message. Of course, he wouldn't say anything nice to the man who gave me worth. He just wanted to let me feel that Sean just played with my feelings because he perhaps thought he was taking advantage of my vulnerability. He tried to prove it to me that I didn't deserve any special affection from powerful men like them, and that only he could bear with someone like me. I would never allow him to break my self-esteem again.
The bed at my right ride side sank, and soon, Sean's arms draped around me. He then pulled me up and placed my head in his chest.
"Have you already decided on the design of your gown?" Sean asked as he stroke my hair with his fingers.
I shook my head then wrapped my hand around his abdomen, hugging him tightly. Though I already started to harbor doubts at him, every time he showed me his gentle and caring ways, I always melted like wax against a burning c

RED'S POV After a few days, my health improved. My voice also came back, though it still sounded hoarse. I only came back to the hospital once for my last hemodialysis and the removal of my intrajugular catheter afterward. An intrajugular catheter is a type of catheter inserted into a vein in the neck called an intrajugular vein. The catheter is used as a route for the exchange of blood from a person's body to the dialyzer and back to the body. The moment Sean wheeled me to the Hemodialysis Unit, a bouquet of red roses beside my assigned dialysis machine met our eyes. I pulled in a deep breath, wondering how Sean felt about this. "How does he know I will be here?" I whispered to Sean's ears while my eyes roamed at my left and right, looking for signs of Eric's presence. "Good morning, doc. Someone delivered these flowers for you," the nurse assigned to the unit greeted us with her bright smile while simultaneously loo

RED'S POV Sean looked around with watchful eyes, so I understood that he did not want to talk about Patrick here. I dropped the topic, and he kept his silence. However, his choice to keep his silence gave me a clue that Patrick was behind this. And the more my suspicion grew that he was the famous business tycoon the newscaster meant. Why would Sean do this? Why the hell would he support Patrick's moves against the president? And why would he risk his reputation over this crime? Just how deep was their grudge towards him that they need to involve innocent lives? Once we were back at our room in Laminae, I brought up the topic again. But before that, I decided to hit his weakness - every man's weakness- so that he would open up to me. No matter how I felt silly for thinking that it would work, I still wanted to give it a try. I no longer wanted to complicate things over this damned mystery. I went to th

RED'S POVI laughed softly at what the designer said, earning me a confused gaze from both Sean and the designer. Eric planned to take me back, so maybe, he prepared ahead for my gown. Through the years of choosing by himself the dress I would be wearing on all the occasions I attended with him, I no longer wondered if he made another one for me."I'm just wondering who the woman Eric is fooling around with, this time.""I can't imagine how he fools around with someone new but still insists on winning the previous one." Sean scoffed, gathering himself a curious glance from the designer."It's his business we shouldn't be meddling with," I answered, trying to cut off the topic."As long as he won't meddle with the present."I winked at the designer who then looked at me, perhaps finding herself trapped within our discussion."What would you like to suggest, ma'am?" I asked her opini

RED'S POV Since I held too many doubts at him, and since I was too afraid to give my full trust because of Calla, I also didn't want to deceive myself, nor give Sean false assurances. Until now, he didn't dare to tell me about her. If it were not because I could also justify his action because Leila told me about the call from the president, I would have made it a big issue. If it were not also for the assurances of both Dina and Patrick, I would have called this relationship off. Aside from that, Sean had maintained his warmth towards me, and he was always on my side. I couldn't forget how he cried and how scared he was when he learned that the bug bit me. I could not put aside all his efforts in giving me his time for this relationship to work. What remained a mystery was the reason why he said he had been thinking about me for so long. Had he been stalking at me while I was yet a st

RED'S POV "If only I knew you would say this once we are in this place, I would have brought you here a long time ago," Sea laughed out loud, making other tourists turn their heads at us. "The people are watching us," I cringed in shame as some of them smiled and teased us. "They will have to watch us. Wait." He crouched again and let me hop on to his back. I no longer refused; I would not win over him, anyway. Soon, we entered a long, dim-lit tunnel, and once we were on the other side, we turned left, and I gasped at the magnificent view before us. On one side, the sprawling ocean glittered against the golden glow of the rising sun. On another side laid the vast stretch of hills and plains, including the famous navigational lighthouse. I stood watching in awe at this splendid view before my eyes. As the people took time to rest after picture-taking, Sean suddenly stood up. I wondered wha

RED'S POV"Forasmuch, as the bride and groom have pledged their love and loyalty towards each other, and have declared the same by giving their rings, by the power vested in me, and as witnessed by friends and acquaintances, I now pronounce you husband and wife."The few instant friends we first met in Diamond Head cheered and gave us loud rounds of applause. I smiled as I looked up to the man I never thought would become my husband this fast. He looked back at me with those beautiful eyes that, as of the moment, were sparkling with joy and love. For a few seconds, my world seemed to stop spinning, and all I could see was him.He then reached for the back of my head and ever so gently tilted it back as he bent down and captured my lips. I heard the loud cheering again, but I seemed to see no one--my world existed only around him. I never felt so happy until that moment where he caged me in his arms, and I was watching the

Book 2:1We rested for a while after we arrived home. Our vacation in Hawaii was long enough to make me fall completely for my husband. He cared for me like I was the breath of his life, and he attended to my every need like it was his only lifeline."Excited for my surprises?" Sean asked after he lay down at my side, still panting.We just christened our bedroom with our first lovemaking in the house. The first surprise I got after we stepped inside was to see that the connecting doors of our units were finally opened, converting it to a single, detached house. Everything Sean wanted to do in his absence that involved personal and private matters was always accomplished through Philip."I already have everything, how could I ask for more?" I replied, snuggling into his chest. He also lifted my head and inserted his arm under my head, cuddling me closer."You deserve to have more. Even before you were born, y

Book 2:2 "Sean, what are we doing?" I asked as he instructed the driver to run around the parking lot. Sean did not answer me, but his eyes were on the vehicles at the circumventing parking area outside the restaurant. When he saw that Eric's car was still there, he asked the driver to pull over at the space parallel to where Eric had parked. I knew better when to keep my mouth shut, so I just kept quiet while observing him. When Philip emerged from Eric's car, and when he got back to his vehicle, Sean picked up his phone from the stand and dialed Philip's number. "Sir, good noon!" I heard Philip's answer on the other line as Sean set his phone into a loudspeaker mode. "Is everything ready for tonight? We have just arrived from Hawaii." "Yes, sir. I even have Dr. Red's gown delivered at the house." We arrived just in time for the hospital's 30th Founding Anniversary Celebration. Du
