Loving Madeline-Chapter 186 - An Angel

Madeline's POV

I know my husband tried to hide the pain that he felt. Even if Hunter told me that he was fine, I could tell that he was only trying to cover up his emotions with his adorable smiles. Others may say he is in high spirits because they seldom see my husband wear a beautiful smile on his face. Hunter will always look cold and strict to others, but they didn't realize my husband has a kind heart. He can be sweet to his loved ones, especially to me.

I am worried about my husband about what happened, but I can tell he will talk to his mom sooner because I know he is close to her. Even if he said he felt alright, I know he can't go on with his life without talking to his mom.

"Madeline, thank you." Mom said after my husband left and went to our room to check his emails. Hunter's mom didn't come to the office today, and I begged my husband to talk with her mom this morning, and I reminded him again this afternoon the moment we reached the driveway of our house.

"For what, mom?" I asked her, and I was confused why Leticia Divenson was saying thank you to me.

"I know you were the one who asked your husband to talk with me. I know Hunter's personality. It will take him a long time before he will talk with me again because I can tell that he was so upset about what happened last night. I know he wasn't only upset with me, but he was also angry, and I am sure if you weren't there with him, he would leave this house and stay at the penthouse." Mom declared, and Lily was only listening to our conversation, and I know she already learned the truth that Hunter was only her half-brother, but it doesn't matter because she will always be Hunter's sweet little sister.

"I know I should not tell him about it, but I couldn't keep it in my heart forever, Madeline. Keeping that kind of secret was unforgivable, and I understand if my son will hate me forever, but I am so thankful that you became his wife because my son changed. I know Hunter is a good person, but I also knew he will sulk in his room if ever he has problems, and he will avoid me at all cost." Mom added.

"Mom, I did nothing. It was obvious my husband loves you so much, and even if he was upset, he understands you, and I could tell what you have been through that time was too much. And I am so thankful you take good care of Hunter, and you gave birth to him, or else I will never meet him." I responded, and she smiled at me.

"Of course, Madeline, even if it was so painful for me when my father asked me to marry Clark so that I would not disgrace our family, I wanted to protest, but my old man told me I should think about my child. He will suffer the consequences that happened in my life." She said.

"But it wasn't your fault, mom, he died, and it was an accident. And I am sure if Hunter's dad were alive, he would never abandon you and Hunter, and he will take responsibility." I said.

"And that would be sad, Madeline, because I can't have Hunter as my brother," Lily replied, and I looked at her with tenderness.

"I don't think so, Lily, because I am sure you will still be his little sister," I responded, and she smiled at me.

"I am glad that you are now fine, mom. I was worried about you the whole day. I know you texted me you were fine, but I know deep inside you were hurting." I said, and she stared at my face.

"Yes, you were right, Maddie. I was worried if he wouldn't forgive me this time. As Hunter's mom, I have so many shortcomings to him and the worst part, the secrets I tried to hide from him, including Rebecca's death." She replied. 𝐟𝘳𝑒𝗲𝘸e𝒃𝘯𝒐𝐯e𝚕.c𝒐𝒎

"It was all in the past mom, Hunter already let go of the pain of yesterday, and I know he was trying to accept the truth, and it is painful to say he was relieved to know that Clark wasn't his father because Hunter understood that is the reason Clark wanted him to marry Kaye, even if he didn't love her. He couldn't understand why his father won't understand that Hunter was in love with me, and now that he knew Clark wasn't his father, he understood everything." I responded, and I felt mom take my hand, and then she squeezed it as she looked at me in the eyes.

"If for Clark you were a nuisance in this family, for me, you are an angel sent from above. You saved my son from being miserable for the rest of his life, and you let him forget the pain of his past, and for that, I will forever be grateful to you, Maddie, and thank you so much for loving Hunter." Mom said, and I felt so touched by her words.

"It is flattering, mom. Thank you also for being a good mom to me." I responded.

"I felt guilty, Maddie, because at first, I mistreated you." She said.

"It is okay, mom. I understand it wasn't your intention at all." I replied.

"Thank you for being a loving sister to me, Madeline," Lily said, and I looked at her.

"Lily, you are the sweetest girl I have ever met, it was my pleasure, and I felt so grateful that I met you because you are the sister that I couldn't have. You don't know how much you make

me so happy for all the things you did to me. Even at an early age, you showed kindness to me. I felt so lucky to have you in my life, young lady." I said, and she giggled. And I realized time passed too quickly because Lily became so tall, and she looked like a college student now, even if she will only turn sixteen this year.

"Go to your room now, Madeline. I am sure your husband is waiting for you." Mom said, and I got up from the sofa, and I said good night to them before I walked out from the living room.

"Hey! Are you done talking with your client?" I asked Hunter the moment I got inside our room, and I found him reading his emails, but when I sat closer to him, he closed his emails, and he shut down the laptop, and then he brought me closer to him.

"You don't need to do that, Hunter. It is okay, I will take a shower, and I will sleep ahead of you." I said as I got up from the bed.

"And miss my chance to have a shower with my beautiful wife? I don't think so, my sweet Madeline. I already promised myself that you and our baby will be my top priority." Hunter responded as he followed me to the bathroom, and I was laughing hard when I found him already naked when he joined me in the bathroom. And when he came closer to me, my laughter died down when my husband captured my mouth hungrily while he pinned me to the wall. I love the way he kissed me, and I couldn't stop myself from kissing him back hungrily.

I felt so happy that Hunter reconciled with his mom, and we went to the office together the following morning. Hunter got so busy with his schedule for the rest of the week, but I felt so glad they kept turns with my training. But every time it was my husband's turn to train me, mostly we ended up making out, and for how many times mom caught us kissing each other, and she told us we could kiss later at home, but what can I do? My husband almost died, and we lost more than one month to be with each other, and it was both challenging for us because we just got back to being together before the incident happened. That is why we are still making up for the lost days we have.

I felt so glad that finally, we were on our way to our vacation home, and I felt guilty because of how many times I ask my husband to pull over because I wanted to vomit, and then I ended up sleeping instead of talking with my Hunter for the rest of the ride.

"Are you okay, Maddie?" My husband asked me the moment we got inside our vacation home, and it felt so lovely to be back, and I was in awe when I realized everything was in order, and the entire house is spotless, and I know my husband spent money to have someone maintained the villa.

"I am fine, Hunter, and I am sorry if I fell asleep in the car during the ride; I should have fought my drowsiness," I said the moment he took me into his arms.

"It is okay; besides, it was the baby who always keeps you sleepy." He said as he caressed my tummy, and it felt so lovely to have this wonderful moment with my husband.

He took me to the beach, and I felt so happy that he brought me to my favorite place. My husband looked so hot, and I couldn't stop looking at his gorgeous body as I continued to swim in the water; and no one was swimming on the beach at this hour except us, and that is what I love this place. We always have the privacy that we need. He let me swim until I got so tired, and I know my husband allowed me to swim because it is one of the safest forms of exercise for me since I am pregnant. ｆ𝘳e𝒆w𝗲𝐛𝘯𝐨νe𝚕.cｏ𝓶

My husband helped me during my bath even if I still looked the same, except I felt my breasts getting heavier. And I felt so happy when he asked me to watch him prepare our dinner, and Hunter didn't allow me to move around or help him. He prepared everything, and it felt so wonderful to get pampered by the hot CEO.

"I hope this moment will never end," I said in more than a whisper.

"' Me too, my sweet wife," Hunter responded, and I didn't expect him to hear what I have said, and I felt so happy watching my husband cooking dinner for me. It felt so lovely to watch him moved around wearing an apron, looking so handsome as ever, and I felt so lucky to have Hunter as my husband.
