Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice-Chapter 217 Veronica is dying?

Veronica open her heavy eyelids and didn't know what time it is or what day it is. She just wanted to die quickly. Tony hasn't been with her for days now. Seven days? She check her phone. His laptop is not there anymore. She sigh with a heavy heart and try to sit up. But she couldn't. Her whole body is collapsing. She can't take the pain anymore.

Tony is happy now. That's what she thought. He's already planning a wedding with Vivien. Playing how happy Tony was with Vivien on their wedding makes her heart ache yet she has to be happy because Tony is happy. That's the only way for him not to be tied up with her. She didn't want to be selfish at all. Is it seven days? She check it again. It's not seven days but ten days already. There's four more days to live.

The door opens and Catriona enter. She just gave birth and why is she here?

"Cat, why are you here?" She asked as she reach the glass of water.

"Can't I visit you?"

"But you just gave birth!" She scowl.

"V… this will be over soon. Okay? I am here."

"Just go to the triplets." She said and put the glass away but it didn't reach the table and it falls on the floor. 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om

"Are you okay?" Catriona asked.

"I am…" She mutter. Whiskey came up and lead Catriona to the sofa. He then clean up the glass and put a tumbler instead.

"Where's Tony?" Catriona asked. Veronica smile bitterly.

"He's probably preparing for their wedding and maybe making love with her."

Whiskey stopped. Veronica didn't know where Tony is right now. He didn't want to tell her because it will hurt her. She let go of Tony yet Tony can't let her go. Now he understand what real love is. Tony would do anything for Veronica.

"You let go so easily."

"I am not asking for cure anymore." Veronica close her eyes. "I'm tired."

"Stop saying that. Don't fail Sabrina. She's still adjusting. Besides, my triplets needs you and I am getting married."

Veronica smile. She can see the ruby diamond on her left hand finger. Then she's satisfied. She can die happy now. She won't worry about Sabrina because she's protected by Gabby.

"Cat…" She remove her ring. "Please give this ring back to Tony." She put it on the side table. "I'll sleep now."

"You just woke up." She said. 𝙛𝚛𝙚ewe𝗯𝓃𝗼ѵ𝚎Ɩ.𝒄ｏ𝐦

"I can't even go out from here…" She murmur. Veronica is dying slowly. Whiskey left the room and call Tony.

"Where's the damn cure?" He scowl. "Tony—I love Veronica… and I allowed her be with you because she's happy. Please… the cure."

"You don't have to scowl me." Tony hang up.

Tony almost smash everything after Whiskey called. He has no time right now. He hasn't shave or sleep… he even smell bad. He eat rarely. Samantha and him are doing everything to get the cure. Gabriel call him and he answer it.

"What else do you need?" He asked. Tony starts telling him the ingredient he needed for the cure that they are making and then he stop when Samantha call him.

"Tony… I—I just took the sample you made." Samantha said and she met his eyes.

Gabriel was pacing back and forth. Sabrina was watching him while she's playing a video game.

"Are you okay?"

"Hmm. Veronica is dying." He face her. "I'm sorry love. For not protecting her."

"It's not your fault." She said and put the controller away. "Let's go now? You delay our date!" She nags. Gabriel thought that it was cute so he didn't say anything at all.

Gabriel took her to one of the biggest mall in the Philippines and she enjoy it all. She's three and a half months pregnant now and she's going to be a mother. Yet she's acting like a kid. He was careful with her since she was in coma for two months.

"Woah!" Her eyes widens and falls into the big teddy panda bear in the store. She squeal and hold on him tightly. It was annoying. Gabriel was being aroused by her behavior. Seductive or not. "Buy me that!"

Gabriel didn't say anything and smile stealthily as he grab it and buy it before anyone could, Couples are looking their way and she keep up with a happy face like a teenager as Gabriel bought it. Sabrina hug it tightly.

"I'll carry it." He said. Sabrina pouted. "It's heavy." He said as he took his card and the receipt.

All Sabrina could do was to squish the panda's big arm. Bigger than hers.

"Are we going home now?"

"No! Food…" she rubbed her stomach. "Me and baby are really hungry"

Gabriel smile and bend down. He reach her chin and kiss her lips.

"Sabrina… you keep provoking me." Sabrina was quizzical. Provoke him? Provoke him how? Is he mad or something? What Gabriel means is that he's aroused and he want to make love to her. For him she's too seductive. Seducing him innocently was one of the best she did without knowing.

Gabriel had booked a restaurant for them. She chooses the four season a buffet restaurant had and had to wait. She didn't mind waiting since he had already booked it. They reach a comfortable seat. He told her to seat and took the other one for her big panda bear.

He took a tray and started taking few of it. Gabriel requested for the hot pot she wanted and he chose the seafood that they are going to put there. She was waiting and like a little kid—she's too excited.

Gabriel let her eat a lot while he's checking the status of his business. Then Tony calls.

"Bro. I need a best man, right now."

"I am with my wife in the mall. We are eating."

"Okay—I need it in five hours. I and Sam are still monitoring our research… Damn—bro my heart is racing…"

"Do you have the ring already? It's needed. I've settled the judge and the papers. It will take a while."

He call Oliver and told him the plans. Soon he relaxed and just wait for the update. He eat with his wife who look so happy with the food.

"Eat slowly." He said. She nodded. They stay there for three hours and she look sleepy when they finish the food. He call their body guards nearby and they took the Panda Bear as he carries her into his arms.

"Do you need tea?"

"Hmm. I am too full."

"You finish a food that is meant for ten people…" He mutter. She wrapped her arms around his nape and snuggle on him. Their car stopped in front of them and he put her inside and took the Panda bear.

"Do you want to attend a wedding?" He asked.

"Hmm. Of whom?"

"My cousin."

"Hmm." She had fallen asleep in his arms. Gabriel was satisfied though they are not making love every night.
