Chapter 102: Chapter 102
After his visit with zade, Leo went back to the hospital to talk to alana, and Leo, in the past, must have improved his appearance a little after dealing with the men Leo was desperate to end, not wanting to taint his imagination.
Leo then pulled the door off the door and saw his wife focused on the book on her lap, even alana's focus on the book on her lap left him unaware that Leo was already there.
"What is that book? You seem so interested in reading it that you didn't see me coming? "Leo asked alana to turn alana sideways afterward to draw the corner of her lips, giving her husband the sweetest smile, even though her lips still looked pale but in Leo's eyes alana's smile remained the most captivate.
"Where have you been? "Alana made Leo sit next to his wife.
"I have to take care of some business" Leo replied.
"What business? "Alana asked a little curious.
"Business as usual, I have some work to do," Leo replied, holding out his hand and taking over alana's lap book after which he placed it on his nakstand, and then he bent his face and pressed his face against alana's stomach while rubbing it with some feeling, making alana lean over his back a little bit as if he were still in pain.
"Hey, how are you? I feel like dad hasn't said a word to you in a long time," Leo said as if he was talking to the fetus in alana's stomach, making alana express her happy smile.
"I'm sorry, I've been busy lately with having to take care of your mom and you being in there have to be strong and don't bother your mom." then Leo went back making alana flatten him on the shoulder.
"He never bothered me at all, so don't scold him," alana blurted out as if her son was being scolded by her own husband, making Leo restraighten his body with a giggle.
"I didn't scold him, I was just warning him" Leo said
"Sounds the same in my ears" alana responded flatly to let him relent and then watched over his wife's face from so close, her reddish hue still not back on her cheeks in the cold makes Leo feel guilt again
"Why?" Asked alana, who was aware of Leo's gaze examining every inch of his face
"No, it's just that you look more beautiful every day," Leo responded, making alana roll her eyes out of her lazy, exasperating eyes
"Can't you lie any better than this?" alana said
"Anyone who sees me is going to say something like a living corpse, with all this chaos and this pale face and you still say I'm getting pretty, you're really good at bragging." alana's grunt makes Leo giggle, Leo then stretched out his hand while stroking alana's face gently.
"Whatever happens to you, in my eyes, is still beautiful." said Leo, making alana pause.
"Should I believe it? "Alana made Leo nod his head.
"Of course, as much as I trust you, you should believe me." Leo responded, making alana smile.
"All right, what you said before I take credit for is no exaggeration" alana replied, Leo then recalled zade's words whether he should ask alana or not, even though Leo previously considered all of zade's words to be nonsense, but his mind still retained what zade had to say
"Honey, are you lost in thought?" Alana blurted abruptly while waving her hand in Leo's face made Leo's face a little jolt.
"Yes, did you say something? "Asked Leo, making alana stare directly at him with her eyebrows raised.
"So you're totally lost in thought, what's bothering you that you don't pay attention to my words? "Alana asked a little surprised.
"It's nothing, never mind" Leo replied, but alana kept glaring at him, as though forcing Leo to say anything to make him pay attention to it and it seemed like Leo understood the meaning of his wife's gaze.
"Well, I'm just a little distracted by the ignorant talk of a few hours ago" said Leo alana's maker further wrinkled his forehead in, but the next second alana opened her eyes.
"Did you see zade?" alana made Leo nod her head.
"How did he, did he say anything to anyone who helped him, and then how long would he be punished? "Some of alana's immediate questions became one, making Leo immediately put his index fingers on his wife's lips.
"Don't rush it too much, you can ask it out one by one so I don't get confused about it." Leo said, making alana draw his breath out of it slowly.
"Will he really spend the rest of his life behind bars? "Alana made Leo nod his head.
"I'll make sure he doesn't get out of that place easy." Leo answered, making alana feel a little relieved.
"Then did he say that someone was helping him?"
"No, he didn't say just one thing that bothered me to think so far," Leo said, making alana more assertive that he was being honest with her.
"When you were taken by that bastard did he say anything to you? "Asked Leo finally because of his curiosity which irritated him further, while alana lingly tried to recall any conversation zade had had with him.
"Did he tell you a secret? "Leo went back to his later memories and looked into the eyes of her husband, whether Leo would be deeply hurt to accept the secrets he would tell her.
"He said a big secret which made me absolutely certain that I didn't want to see his face all my life again," he blurted out.
"You can tell me," Leo said, make alana squeeze in the patient's clothes, alana fears that Leo might come back to the accident that left her completely devastated, but alana can't even cover up what zade says because alana doesn't want any more misunderstandings between them.
"he's saying that the accident you had a few years back, that your feet wouldn't be able to walk is because of he." alana was so quick to make Leo stunned if her husband understood what he was saying because he actually said it in one breath.
"Did he really say it? "Asked Leo, making sure to make alana nod weakly.
"He claims that he is jealous of the happiness that you have, so he is desperate to get you into an accident so that you can't walk, when he tells me his secret I'd really like to finish him off, but unfortunately I can't do anything about it" alana blurted out his sad face, making Leo put his hand out while stroking the side of his wife's face.
"Never do anything for me again, for now I can repay you for what he did for me in return, I promise never to make you sacrifice yourself again" Leo said.
"Since you only deserve to be happy to live with me and our children, let me take care of you like a good husband and father, you're willing to cooperate, right? "Asked Leo, making alana draw the corner of her lips while nodding.
"Of course, no husband and no future as great as a Leo," alana said and immediately embraced Leo made him do the same.
