Chapter 225 - Best Medicine
Megan's POV
The moment I heard my husband's voice, I felt my tears trickle down on my face, and it felt like a dream, and I wanted to be with him right away as I imagined the comfort of his arms. And I can't wait to see Hunter, and that is why I ended the call, and I tried calling him back via FaceTime.
And when I saw his face, I knew right away that he didn't have enough sleep, and even if he looked haggard because of his dishevelled hair and the eye bags on his eyes, my husband still looked handsome, and his hotness was still there that I could feel the butterflies on my stomach right away, and I realized how much I missed him.
My husband was crying, and I could feel that he was so happy right now that he learned I was still alive. And when he told me he loved me, I felt like I was on cloud nine, and it feels terrific that until now we still feel the same way towards each other, and I want to be in his arms once again, and I can't help myself but gape at my husband's face.
I can tell that Hunter was not in our room, and I think he was staying in one of the guest rooms. I felt guilty as I realized he couldn't sleep in our bed because he missed me so much, and he thought I had died. And I remember the time when I was the one who was in deep pain because of what happened to him during the explosion at the mining site, and I wonder why we both need to experience such kind of pain.
I know we had to experience deep sorrow sometimes to make us strong, but what happened to my husband and me was unbearable. I could feel Hunter's excitement when he told me that he was going to tell everyone that I was alive. I could tell that my husband got out from the room he currently occupied and walked through the hallways, and I imagined I was there with my only love and I was walking with him.
I saw the grand staircase, and I couldn't hold my tears once more when I saw his mom, Lily, Gina, and Cerila. They looked so happy as they all looked at me on the screen, and I could see that they were all in tears, and I realized there were a lot of people who cared about me, and I wondered why Calixto was not with them, I can't wait to talk with him as well.
"Madeline, I am so sorry. You suffered because of me." Lily said after my husband gave her his phone so I could speak with her, and I wanted to talk to all of them.
"Hey, stop blaming yourself. I am now fine, and you don't have to worry about me because if you know where I am right now, you will realize I am the lucky one. I can't deny that I had suffered enough, but it was all worth it. And I am sorry that I let you worry about me. What is important for me is to know you are safe. Please always be safe, Lily, because I don't know how to deal with it if something happens to you, now that we are miles apart." I said, and I tried to wipe my tears away. I am just glad that Leo gave me a facial tissue box before he left me in my room.
"Thank you, Madeline, for saving me, for being my friend and my sister at the same time. I couldn't believe that you would offer yourself in exchange for my safety." She said, and I smiled at Lily, and I am so glad she is safe.
"Don't worry, Maddie, after what happened, I became more careful, and I realized I couldn't trust anyone. I should never believe right away, and I felt sad that people wanted to harm other people for their own gain. And I am so thankful that my brother has a wife as selfless as you. You are an angel, Madeline." She said, and her words made me cry harder.
"Please, don't let my wife cry, no crying, please, it could harm our baby." I heard Hunter's voice in the background, and I couldn't stop myself from laughing, and when Lily gave the phone to Gina, I saw Charlotte. I couldn't help myself from feeling curious, but it was not the time right to ask about it, and I am not sure if it was her; maybe I was only hallucinating, and I couldn't stop my heart from feeling so worried because she has nothing good to offer. She hasn't done any good towards her family, but I could tell she was deep in her thoughts, and I realized if it was Hunter's wicked sister, maybe she was so affected by what happened to her father.
I already knew everything that happened to Clark, and I felt glad he was now safe. Even if he mistreated me, I was still hoping he would be given another chance to repent his sins and show his love to Hunter. Gina was hysterical when she saw me, and I can feel the anguish that my best friend felt; because she is more than my best friend, and she is the one I can call my only family because she has always been there for me. Like Lily, my best friend apologized that she allowed me to go to The Wildflower ship alone. She blamed herself that I was suffering.
"Gina, there is nothing to apologize for, it was my choice to save Lily, and I did it on my own accord, and I am now fine, so please stop blaming yourself. If you continue to blame yourself, and you will not stop crying. I will not come back, and I will stay here forever." I said, and I stifled a laugh when I saw Gina was trying to contain her tears but failed miserably, and Lily was hugging Gina now, and I couldn't be happier that I touched their faces on the screen.
"Don't ever do that, Madeline; even if I don't have enough money, I will go there in Neospoli. I don't care if nothing is left with my savings." Gina replied, and I smiled at my best friend. How could she do that? She saved that money all her life, but I know she spent almost all her savings on her mom; that is why I offered her my help.
"Don't worry, after my husband comes here, I will ask him to bring you all here," I replied, and her eyes widened.
"What is that supposed to mean? Don't you want to go back here?" She asked, and I nodded my head.
"But why?" She asked, and I could see the sadness written all over Gina's face; even Lily's face fell.
"How could you do that to us, Madeline?" Gina asked again, and I sweetly smiled at her.
"Hunter will explain everything to you. I will call you tomorrow, but for now, please give the phone back to my husband, Gina, and I hope you understand how much I miss Hunter." I declared, and I heard my husband chuckle, and they all laughed, and I felt so glad that they cared about me.
"Of course, Madeline, I just want you to know, I felt so happy knowing that you are still alive, and I can't wait to see you. I love you, Bestie." She said.
"I love you, too, Gina," I replied, and she gave back the phone to my husband, and I could tell he was moving away from them.
"So, my wife missed me, huh?" He asked, and now I could see his entire face smiling at me, and his mesmerizing eyes made my knees feel so weak. I nodded as I realized how my husband affects my well-being even if he is so far away from me, and I know his voice alone can make me have goosebumps all over my skin.
"Yes, I do." I said, and I giggled.
Hunter wanted to speak with me more, and this time I saw our bedroom, and I smiled. I didn't ask him why he was there in the guestroom because I didn't want my husband to feel guilty. It was so funny because every time we said goodbye to each other, we ended up talking with each other more until Hunter realized our time difference.
"I love you, Madeline. I don't want to say goodbye to you even for a while because I can't stop myself from worrying about you." He said, and I smiled at him.
"I love you more, Hunter. Please be careful always for me, and don't forget to take good care of yourself, don't worry about me and our baby. We are both fine. Aunt Francine told me she would call a doctor to check on me tomorrow, so you don't need to worry about anything. I am waiting for you here." I said.
"Don't worry, Maddie, I will be there." He said, and my husband ended the call after we said goodbye to each other and promised he would call me again tomorrow morning, and he didn't care what time it was over there in Archois city.
I couldn't stop myself from smiling even if the call had ended, and I went to my bed. This time I knew I would have a nice sleep because I can't deny my husband is my best medicine. I didn't tell Hunter that I hadn't met my grandfather yet because I didn't want him to worry about me besides my aunt was here. I knew she would protect me, and even if I had an idea that my grandpa was strict and authoritarian, I could tell his heart would melt the moment I gave birth to my child, and I am not afraid to face him because I am related to him by blood.
I wanted to know my grandfather no matter what kind of personality he had because I thought I would never have the chance to know my relatives on my father's side.. I felt so grateful that I met my loving aunt Francine, and I am sure tomorrow I have to face my grandfather; and I can't wait to meet him, but of course, I am more excited to see and be reunited with my husband.
The moment I heard my husband's voice, I felt my tears trickle down on my face, and it felt like a dream, and I wanted to be with him right away as I imagined the comfort of his arms. And I can't wait to see Hunter, and that is why I ended the call, and I tried calling him back via FaceTime.
