Chapter 48: Chapter 48

Leo hugged Alana with so much effort to put his wife to sleep, Leo was convinced Alana was having such a horrible dream that it made her face paler and his body shaking so much asa sudden burst of screams in her sleep, and Leo didn't want to make alana feel more uncomfortable, For that, all Leo can do now is ease up on alana while stroking her back.

Leo once kissed Alana's top of his head, hoping that his wife would be able to go back to sleep, and Leo's efforts to succeed as he felt his breathing from Alana caused Leo to look a little down and see Alana's calm face, and then turned his gaze at the clock above the noggin that was already two in the morning, causing Leo to force his eyes back into sleep, as it waited for the sun to rise only too long.

It's a good thing Leo didn't have as much trouble reclosing his eyes as he had previously, since Alana was so close to him that he could easily become attracted to the dream realm, it was as if Leo had just closed his eyes when suddenly feeling the slightest movement from his bed caused him to blink a few times and see the light breaking through their bedroom window, Looking over to the side where Alana was still fast asleep, rubbing her face in Leo's field, making Leo pull up the corners of her lips, after which rubbing alana's face gently just starting to stretch her body trying to make her body a little more comfortable.

Leo then tried to slowly take his embrace off at Alana, not wanting to make his wife wake up, after which he reached for the wheelchair which was always by his bed, moving himself from top of the bed to the wheelchair took a little time, with considerable effort and every morning Leo did when Alana was comfortably asleep, Leo didn't want to bother his wife just to move out of bed onto his walking device.

After that Leo rolled his wheelchair into the bathroom, and Leo was used to doing it himself, so it wasn't too much of a challenge because what was needed in the bathroom was available every day.Making Leo's activities easier, it didn't take long for Leo to clean himself, after which he went back to spinning his wheelchair out of the room and Leo paused when Alana was awake leaning back in bed.

"Why didn't you wake me up?" Alana made Leo just show her smile.

"I don't want to disturb your deep sleep, I'll get dressed first." said Leo about turning to the dressroom but Alana directly dropped off on the bed.

"I'll help you get dressed" Alana said without waiting first for answers from Leo, Alana walked right into dressroom picking up Leo's clothes and starting to help him, while Leo could just sit there without a single protest, after everything was over and then invited alana to sit down on one of the sofa chairs in the middle of their room.

"You still look pale, did you have a bad dream last night? "Leo asked.

"Even I still feel fear if I imagine it" alana induced Leo to exhale long, unable to force his wife's wishes because she didn't want to make him uncomfortable.

"Well, let's just forget about the nightmare, pretend it's just a sleeping beauty so you don't have to think about it too much." Leo said, making Alana nod her head and stare at him.

"What about Patrick?" Alana asked in her piles.

"We're about to interrogate him this morning, after he comes in," Leo said, making Alana nod her head, Alana can't wait to ask him about everything they've been through.

"Then while I'm waiting for him to get ready, we'll see him together. you're in." Alana made Leo nod his head, and Alana chose to wait for alana in her study, and Alana, who usually takes more than half an hour to get ready now.

Alana walked right into Leo's study without waiting any longer to see Leo focusing on his laptop screen.

"Why haven't you called him?" Alana caused Leo to divert his eyes after which to close his laptop screen.

"Didn't you say you wanted to see him together?" Leo said, "make Alana turn around immediately and ask one of the services to call their personal driver, Alana and Leo wait in Leo's study, but it only took a few minutes for Patrick to come in with a face that looked different than usual.

"sit down" Leo said made Patrick nod his head after that sitting in the chair opposite Leo and Alana.

"How are you doing after the accident? You've calmed down? "Leo made Patrick nod his head weakly, he had asked for a day off from work before and Leo allowed it because Leo was very surprised he was going through it and he had never been back to work.

"You know not that the car we're driving is not an accident, someone is doing it on purpose," Leo said, making Patrick nod his head weak, nor is he dumb as a driver who has previously tested his expertise in automotive service.

"And we checked the CCTV last night and before you pulled the hood of my husband's car.

"How many days ago I was checking Mr. Leo's car engine, but Alana's mother did so," says Patrick, leaving Leo looking at alana while Alana was surprised by the answer his personal driver gave.

"What, I told you to?" Alana silenced Patrick instead, gazing at him.

"Yes, didn't you use Mr. Leo's car to go to the pastry shop and then back you complained that the car's engine was uncomfortable when it was on, so I checked it and didn't find anything wrong." Patrick said, "made Alana pause and remember what he said. But on Alana's trip, she did feel that Leo's car was in some way wrong because he was uncomfortable when she used it, but Alana didn't feel if she told Patrick to check, she just murmured when she got out of the car.

"I took it upon myself to search the car because I was afraid something was wrong, but I was afraid that after I had done something bad bad," explains Patrick, leaving Leo speechless, Leo could not see the lies in his driver's answers, and then Leo looked at Alana.

"Is what he said true? "Leo asked.

"Well, I just remembered that I did take your car and I did complain about being uncomfortable, like he took it upon himself to check it out." Alana made Leo exhale long breaths that she could no longer accuse his personal driver of using a thought they had before.

"Well, then, Patrick, you can get back to the other job," Leo said, "make Patrick stand out of his chair, and then nod weakly, but alana doesn't seem to agree with her Husband's decision, and then protest when Patrick's out of Leo's living room.

"You just let him go? "Asked Alana.

"Since I couldn't accuse him anymore, he's been telling the truth, and yet you've also admitted that you took my car before and he just took the initiative to check it out on his own, that might also be one of the reasons why your earring was in my car's engine because you probably unlocked my hood, too?" Leo blurted his wheelchair after that, leaving alana in silence trying to recall whether she had previously opened Leo's hood, for some reason Alana felt that her recent memory had diminished, making him clutch his hair so violently.

Alana then chose to leave Leo back in with his laptop and approach Patrick in the middle of cleaning the car.

"I'm not sure what you just said to Leo," Alana said, looking around at those who aren't there.

"It's just us out here so you can be honest with me, what are you really doing?" Asked Alana as she folded her hands in front of her chest.

"I'm sorry, ma 'am," Patrick said, bowing his head in front of alana.
