Madeline's POV
I felt so touched and happy when my husband brought breakfast in bed. I didn't expect him to wake up, and when I open my eyes, I saw him with a tray in his hands with my favorite food for breakfast. And the way he looked at made realize that he loves . It was sweet of Hunter to do sothing like that because we have maids around the house, and he can ask anyone to bring my al. And the mont he handed the food in our room, I can't stop myself from feeling the butterflies in my stomach. And I admit that every ti my husband is near, I can't stop myself from feeling excited. I know Hunter is not only handso, but he is also sweet. That is why I beca so in love with him.
But the mont he told that he would be going to the ntal care hos, I couldn't stop myself from feeling sad. Even though Hunter already said to that he needed in his life, and he wants us to work, yet I can't stop myself from feeling so worried because I know he will be spending more ti with Rebecca to help her recover fast. I know I already made a decision to help his ex, so I should not feel jealous towards her, but no matter how I try my best to pretend that I am okay, deep inside , I can tell that I am still hurting.
I know he doesn't have any plans of leaving because I can feel that he loves . And right now, that he is honest with , I felt blessed to have him as my husband. And all I need to do right now is to believe in him, and most of all, I have to trust Hunter. I know no wife would be so happy knowing that her husband is spending ti with his ex, but we have a unique love story.
I was waiting for my husband to co ho in our living room. I keep watching my wristwatch, and I started to feel uneasy. And the mont he texted and inford that he could not co ho, I feel so sad. Still, I never ask him why because I know he is in the penthouse, and I realized it is Rebecca's first night staying at his place, and I try to understand that my husband needs to accompany her so she will recover from her ntal illness.
I know it will never be easy on my husband's part to tell her about us. She was his first love, and my husband was her first love too, and the worst part was Rebecca thought they were married. And I wonder how he is going to tell her everything. Just thinking about it also breaks my heart because I know Rebecca was innocent too. And I pity her because it will never be easy on her part to accept the fact that Hunter is no longer hers.
I tried my best to do sothing that can make my mind occupied, so I will stop thinking about my husband and his ex spending the night together. I stood up from the sofa and climbed the grand staircase of our mansion with a heavy heart. It feels like I am walking like a zombie. And all I can think of is my husband. I don't know if I can sleep tonight without him by my side, but I know I have to because we already talked about this, and he already inford that once Rebecca is transferred to the penthouse, he will be spending more ti with her. And I understand that I need to hold on and wait for my husband to co ho in our big house, which looked so empty now that he is not around.
On the first night that Hunter is not beside in our bed, I couldn't sleep at all, and I am so tempted to call him, but I don't want to disturb my husband at the mont. I tried to think of all the happy monts that we shared, especially during our stay in our villa. But still, it didn't stop from missing him, and our bed feels so empty without him by my side. I miss my husband's touch, his kisses, and his scent. I haven't seen him for how many hours, yet it feels like years that I haven't seen him, and I wonder how I am going to survive this situation without begging him to co ho.
"Madeline, this is Cal." I heard Cal's voice on the other line, and I couldn't stop myself from feeling so excited because I know Cal is my husband's assistant and friend. Still, I also can't stop myself from feeling nervous because I can tell there is a possibility that my husband will not co ho tonight, and this would be the second night that he will be sleeping at the penthouse.
"Hello, Cal," I answered my phone that keeps on ringing, and I tried my best to sound so enthusiastic, and even though deep in my heart, I felt so worried that I wouldn't be seeing my husband tonight. And I don't want to call to tell Hunter that I am having a hard ti right now. No matter how I want to see my spouse, I controlled myself because I want to show him that I am strong and can do this. I like Hunter to be proud of , and I am sure that one of these days, he will co ho to our house and spend his ti with .
"Maddie, I am sorry to inform you that Mr. Divenson won't be coming ho tonight. Rebecca has an early appointnt with her new doctor tomorrow." Cal said, and even though I already expecting his line, but hearing it from him makes feel so sad that I will be spending my night alone in our room again.
"I understand, Calixto, and please kindly tell Hunter if he has the ti; I want him to call ." I said.
"Of course, your husband wants to talk to you, but he got so busy the entire day, and during night ti, he spends most of his ti talking with Rebecca. You know how much she needs Hunter's help, but you don't need to worry about anything, Madeline, Mr. Divenson is in love with you, and I think the only reason why he is not calling you is that the mont he hears your voice, he will co ho running to you." He said, and I smiled, and I am hoping what he said was all true.
"Madeline, please go to your room now, and you need to have so sleep. I think this is the third ti I find you sleeping on the couch." I heard Cerila's sweet voice, and I realized I doze off on the sofa again, and this is the fifth night that I know my husband will not co ho because it is almost midnight, and I didn't dare to ask him if he will go ho. I know he was also avoiding calling because I can tell he misses too, and I understand that if my husband hears my voice, he will be tempted to co ho.
The following weekend I felt so happy when I found Lily standing in our living room when I climb down the stairs.
"Madeline!!" She scread when she saw and ran towards , and when she put her arms around my waist and embrace tightly, I couldn't stop myself from crying because I realize how much I miss this girl. And I can tell I am also crying because I miss her brother so much. One week is long enough for not to see Hunter. And there was a ti I saw a missed call on my phone, and when I look at the ti, it was three o'clock in the morning.
And even though we didn't talk, I realize he misses too. Because he will not be calling at that hour if he didn't think of , it gives happiness, and I am so tempted to call him back, but I don't want to disturb them. And most of all, I don't want Rebecca to feel exhausted and to feel hurt once she will find out that soone is calling and texting Hunter since she thought he is her husband.
"Lily!" I exclaid, and I hugged her back, and I stroked her back.
"Aren't you happy to see ? Madeline?" She asked.
"Of course, I miss you so much, Lily." I replied, and she raised her head and looked at in the eyes.
"And if you are happy to see , then why are you crying?" My little sister asked .
"These are tears of happiness, Lily. I am sorry if I didn't visit you in the Divenson mansion. I got so busy with my studies lately, and I hope you will forgive because for how many tis I promise you that I am going to pick you up, but I ended up doing reports and spending ti with your brother." I replied, and she smiled at , and right now, Lilly's presence makes feel so delighted, and my heart is overjoyed with happiness.
"It is okay, Madeline; I understand, and I know how busy you are right now." She replied, and I bead at her.
I take Lily to the mall, and I can tell she makes feel better even though I can't stop thinking about Hunter. I am just glad his little sister is spending her ti with , or else I will go crazy waiting for him to co ho. Lily and I watched cartoons at the Cinema, and we ice-skated on the ice skating rink the entire afternoon, even though I don't know how to skate, and it was Lily who taught to ice skate. I had fun with her the whole day, and I smiled when Lily fell asleep imdiately the mont she hit her body on the bed, and I realized she drained her energy.
I drive Lily ho to the Divenson mansion the following day, and she told she would co again next weekend, and I can't wait to see her again.
I got out of our classroom hurriedly even though Mia and Carol asked to join them to have lunch, I decline their invitation, and it is already more than a week that my husband didn't co ho, and for how many tis I am so tempted to call him, but I don't want to disturb him. I am just patiently waiting for him.
My steps faltered, and my heart is beating so fast, and I am surprised to see my husband leaning on his SUV car, which was parked beside my sports car on the parking lot of my university. And he looked so boyish wearing only faded jeans and a white t-shirt. And I couldn't believe he will co and visit here on my campus. The mont he raised his head and his eyes found mine, I almost fainted to the ground because I felt so happy to see him today, and when he smiled at , he took my breath away, and I can feel the racing of my heart as he walked towards .. And I felt like I am on cloud nine as I saw him gaze at with intensity, and I felt so delighted that my husband ca to see .
