Madeline's POV
"Hey, I miss you, Cerila," I said the mont she gets inside my room, and she was smiling at .
" too. I missed you so much, and there were tis I want to go to your house and visit you. But I don't want to leave your husband here since I was afraid of what he would do with himself because he was so lost without you. if you only knew how much he cried on the night when he found out you left him." Cerila declared.
"And I hate to tell you that I cried with him that night because I pity him even if I hated him for hurting you, but I have seen it in his eyes that he loves you, Madeline. And from that mont on, I know that Hunter was innocent. Because I know Mr. Divenson will never act that way if he cheated on you. And I want to call you and tell you about those things, but I don't want to ddle with your personal life." She added.
"You must know he drank too much alcohol that night, and I understood he wants to forget the pain that he was feeling that ti. He never stops drinking and calling your na, saying sorry until he passed out on the floor. I asked help from the butler to help carry your husband on the sofa." Cerila said as I touched my husband's face on the fra in our nightstand. We looked so happy in the picture, and we asked Lily to take that picture one of our stay at the villa. I realized I miss him already, even if we have seen each other this morning. I suddenly want to kiss my husband and told him that I will always love him. And after Cerila told what happened with my husband after I left, I realize how much he loves . And I can't wait to be reunited with him, and I will do everything I can to show him I always love him.
"Thank you, Cerila, for taking good care of Hunter's needs when I left," I said as I let out a soft sigh.
"You are welco, Maddie, all I want is for you to get back together, and now that you are back, I am so happy for both of you, and at last, Mr. Divenson will be happy and will return to his old self again," Cerila replied, and I bead at my friend.
"How's school?" I asked her, and she smiled at .
"It's great, and thank you, Maddie, for everything." She said.
"Don't ntion it. Besides, it was my husband's money, not mine." I replied.
"I know, but you were the one who asked your husband to send to school, and because of you, everything happened, and I am so happy that I was able to get back to school. And thank you for being my friend because it is unusual for the lady of the house to be friends with the maid." Cerila said, and I shook my head.
"Don't be silly, Cerila, we are friends, and the mont you graduate, I want you to work at the company of Hunter so you can buy your place, and you can drive your car, speaking of driving a car, it is about ti I will teach you on how to drive." I declared, and her face lit up.
"Are you sure?" She asked in disbelief, and I smiled and nodded my head at her.
"Very sure!" I replied, and she bead at .
"By the way, I ca to inform you that dinner is ready; your mother-in-law told that your husband would be late, and he doesn't know what ti he will be back. So, he asked your mom to take good care of you, and I think it is so sweet of him, Madeline." She said, and I received the exact text. Hunter inford he was sorry that he can't make it to dinner. I felt worried, but I trust my husband enough to handle what is going on at the site, and I can't wait to see him when he cos ho.
"Hi, mom, Lily!" I greeted them when we got inside the dining room, and I insisted Cerila to join us because Hunter hired her as my assistant.
"Hello, my dear! It is so lovely to have you back. I wish Hunter can join us tonight." Mom said, and I agree with her it feels so good to be ho. We eat our dinner happily, and I love all the food Hunter's mom prepared for us. I know she was the one who cooked her specialty. We eat dessert while talking, and it felt so nice to have a conversation with Hunter's mom. I had learned before she got married, she helped his father run the company, and Leticia only stopped working when she got pregnant. But even if she has children, she is still active with the company undertaking as she gave her undying support to his husband. She attended social gatherings with him, and she hosted so many parties for his business partners.
"I still know how to run a company, Madeline, and now that you graduated, you don't need to apply to another firm. You should work for your husband, and I would love to guide you, and Hunter would be so thrilled if you will be working with him, but still, it would be your decision, my dear." She said before she sipped her wine with grace, and I can tell whatever Leticia will do, my mother-in-law will still look sophisticated even if she tends the garden.
"Yeah, of course, mom. I would love to work with Hunter, and it would be my honor to have you as my ntor." I replied, and she sweetly smiled at . After eating dinner, we all went to the family room, and we watch an evening ga show, and my phone suddenly rings, and I smiled when I saw Gina's na flashing on my screen.
"Hello, Gina!" I happily answered my best friend while I got out of the family room to hear her. And I put my phone away from my ear when I heard her yelling at , and I felt guilty because of my excitent to co ho to our house. I haven't inford her I will be coming ho.
"Where the hell are you, Madeline? I Have been banging your front door." Gina shouted, and I know she is angry with because I promised her that we would spend the night watching movies while eating her favorite ice cream.
"I am sorry, Gina, sothing ca up," I said.
"What happened? Are you alright?" She asked, and the tone of her voice softened.
"Yes, I am okay. I ca ho with Lily." I said.
"Wow, it is about ti. I am happy for you, Madeline. I am sure you made your husband so happy." She said.
"Yeah, I know, and I realized how I miss him since we are still waiting for him because of sothing that happened at the mining site earlier today," I replied.
"Can I co over?" Gina asked, and I smiled.
"Of course, you are always welco wherever I live, and do you want to stay there at my house?" I asked.
"You know I am still broke, and I can't afford to rent this house." She replied.
"Who told you I would ask you for rent? You can stay there for free as long as you will keep it clean." I said.
"Really? Wow! Of course, I want to stay here, you know. I have eyes for your hot chef neighbor." She said, and I heard her giggled while I can't help myself from smiling as I rember Jack Morigan.
"Wow! Good luck with that, and you better hurry because it is late already." I said.
"Are you sure it would be alright? You just got back with your husband." She said.
"Why? Do you plan to share a room with us? Co on, Gina, this house has a lot of guest rooms. You can choose which room you want to sleep." I said, and she laughed.
"Okay, see you later, and I think I can reach there in less than two hours since there is no heavy traffic this ti." She said.
"Yeah, you are right, be careful okay, see you in a while, Gin," I said and hung up the phone.
Lily was laughing hard as she watched the show, and I realized mom already retired to bed.
"Aren't you sleepy yet?" I asked.
"Nope, besides, I can't wait to see Hunter. I will join you as you wait for your beloved husband. Because I need to say sorry to him in person, I already texted him, and he replied, but asking sorry in person is more appropriate and more personal." She declared, and I smiled at her as I realized she is adorable. We were still watching television when Gina arrived, and I was wondering what is wrong with her because I can see that her face is pale, and her limbs are shaking.
"Are you alright?" I asked, confused, and I can see that her body is still shivering.
"Madeline, there is a flash report right now on the Television; please, Lily, kindly change the channel and look for any breaking news. I heard it from the radio while I was on the way here." She said, and I suddenly have goosebumps in my entire body.
"What kind of breaking news are we looking for, Gina?" Lily asked, and Gina glanced at , and by the way she looked at , I can tell sothing is off.
"Madeline, there is an explosion on the mining site earlier this evening." She said, and my entire body turned so cold, and I felt so weak that I need to hold on to her arm for support.
