Married to the loveless CEO-Chapter 98: My man

Silvia opened the message to read it;

{Scoff} Was all she saw.

"What..." Silvia voiced, Myne walked in almost immediately. Silvia was at the living room, she didn’t go to work today because she decided to take the day off.

"Madam, a lady is at the entrance and she says she is here to return something to sir Davian," Myne informed.

"Who is she?" Silvia asked.

"I don’t really know her," Myne responded, Silvia stood up from the couch she was sitting on and trailed behind Myne who led the way.

Silvia was so surprised to see that the lady waiting at the entrance of the house was no other than Leah.

"Oh...hi there," Leah greeted Silvia with a broad smile on her beautiful face.

Silvia didn’t return the greeting and instead she glared at her, not even trying to hide her irritation and resentment towards her.

"What do you want? How did you even get this address?" Silvia asked.

"I want to return this..." Leah started, the suit jacket Davian gave her was in her hands- Washed, ironed and perfectly folded.

"And how I know this place- I really don’t have to state it," Leah continued, her fake broad smile still plastered on her face.

Becca was the one who gave her the address of both 3D’s new location and Davian’s house which he shared with this so called wife of his. After meeting Davian at the auction that day, she had later on ran into Becca too.

Becca also told her about how Davian came about becoming married to Silvia Reyes, how it all started.

Leah didn’t know why Becca was helping her, for all she knows back then, Becca was in love with her boyfriend Davian which made both ladies to not have the best of relationships.

When Leah asked Becca why she was helping her out to make Davian hers again, she simply answered that she doesn’t like Silvia Reyes and prefers Leah over her.

"I really don’t even want to know. Psychos like yourself are capable of stalking exes," Silvia stated which made Leah to huff.

"-And also to take pictures of herself while doing it so she can send to the ex’s new partner just to stir up something," Silvia added.

"I will just stop you there. That’s a really amazing idea but I will- Can never do such," Leah responded. Silvia stared at her for some while, she looked sincere. But if it’s not her, who is taking advantage of the situation then?

"But then again, I don’t really need you to believe me. Here," Leah added, offering the jacket to Silvia. Silvia collected it but held Leah’s arm firmly in the process.

"You did this on purpose, you clearly knew Davian was at work and I was on my day off. Coming at the right time? You planned this to rile me, didn’t you?" Silvia began.

"You are stalking Davian and I, I can sue you for this. What exactly do you want from my man?" Silvia continued.

"I.want.your.man," Leah emphasized every single word, not trying to be so oblivious and friendly anymore.

"He was mine, he’s going to be mine again ’cause he has always been," Leah added, yanking her arm away from Silvia’s grasp.

She glared at her before she started walking away as Silvia had already collected the jacket from her.

"Don’t ever come here, ever!" Silvia told, Leah scoffed and walked away.

Sentencia was about to leave her home for an emergency at the hospital. She entered her car and started it but it wasn’t starting.

"Seriously? Right now!" she exclaimed.

The car doesn’t always break down like this, why today? Just why?

She got out of the car, she will just take a taxi. But a car just came to park on the street in front of her driveway.

"Oh...that seems like Logan’s car," Sentencia noted. It was truly him, he came out of the car through the driver’s side.

"Oh, Logan, hi," Cia greeted.

"Yo going out? I thought you won’t be going to work today so I decided to pay you a visit," he responded.

"Ah yes but I was called for an emergency at the hospital, so no time for visiting. Though my car just broke down and I wanted to take a cab-"

"I will drive you there, c’mon," he offered.

"Uhm, okay," she accepted as she was really in a hurry.

They walked towards his car and he opened the shotgun door for her to get in, "Thank you," she responded as she got in. He shut the door and walked around to get into the driver’s seat.

He drove off to White bridge hospital immediately and they got there in no time.

"You’ll be okay waiting for me here right?" Sentencia asked Logan as she was about to get into the operating room, after getting in her surgeon attire.

"Yes," he replied, she nodded at him then went in. He sat at the waiting chair bench as he waited for her.

She came out of the operating room shortly, some of her colleagues trailed behind her. Logan stood up on seeing her, she looked sad and dejected.

He walked towards her, "What’s wrong?"

"I didn’t come in time, I couldn’t save him. If only I had been some few minutes earlier, just maybe then I would have been able to save him," she answered, with a sad tone, her eyes were already clouding with tears threatening to fall.

Logan didn’t know how to reply, what to say, how to comfort her right now. He just stared back at her, cursing within. It hurt to see her like this, just maybe if he had drove faster she wouldn’t be like this right now.

"This doesn’t always happen, losing a patient? I feel so awful, how am I going to break the news to his family?" and just as Sentencia said that a man and a woman walked in.

"I heard my husband got into an accident and was rushed to this hospital. The nurse at the reception told me he was in surgery. You must be the doctor in charge, how is my husband?" the woman asked.

Sentencia was quiet for some while, "Doctor? How is my husband?" the woman asked again, tears already walking down her cheeks as if the silence of the doctor meant bad news.

"How is my brother, doctor? Say something?!" the man with the woman, demanded.

"I’m sorry," Sentencia managed to say.

"No," the woman responded and finally broke down into tears, the man held her trying to comfort her.

Sentencia couldn’t bear to witness this and so she ran out.

"Sentencia?" Logan called and he started running after her but he soon lost sight of her. He began searching for her, he even went to her office but it was locked.

"Did you see doctor Sentencia?" Logan asked one of the nurses at the reception, after some while of searching for her.

"I think I saw her leave," the nurse responded.

What?

Logan rushed out, where did she go?

It was raining when he got out of the hospital, urgh and he didn’t bring an umbrella. He finally found Sentencia standing out in the rain. He walked over to her and held her shoulders once he stood in front of her.

"Sentencia, are you okay?" he asked, she looked oblivious of her surroundings. He could see the hot tears walking down her cheeks.

She finally gazed up at him, "It’s been so long since I lost a patient and I don’t think I will ever get use to it,"

"Sentencia, don’t blame yourself for this. You can’t save everyone," Logan found himself trying to comfort her.

"Easy for you to say, I save lives and it’s so easy for you to take one," she replied.

He became silent.

He hugged her suddenly, so tightly. She hugged him back as she cried on.

"Please Sentencia, don’t ever go running like that. I was so worried," he told.

He continued to hug her, she wanted to let go after some while of hugging him but he wasn’t ready to let her go.

"I’m good now, Logan," she uttered, patting his back. "Let’s go home,"

He finally let her go, "Sorry," he smiled at her. "I got carried away, you must be so cold," he added and held her hand. They ran over to the parking lot of the hospital and got into his car, then drove off.

Logan’s eyes first gazed at Sentencia through the rear mirror before he started, "I don’t want you to catch a cold. If I use a short cut, my house is actually closer than yours. Let me get you there so that you will get dried and change too,"

His house? This will be the first time she’ll be going there, "No, no need for that-"

"Please Sentencia?" he insisted and so she nodded reluctantly in agreement.

He took her there, there were some few bodyguards in the place. It was a beautiful house, but she was too sad to admire it or even compliment it to him.

He brought her upstairs to a room, one of his men walked in almost immediately they did. He brought some clean dry clothes which Logan had ordered him to.

Logan collected it from him and gave it to Sentencia then he excused the man, "Have a warm bath and change into those, they’re comfy don’t worry. I’ll check on you soon," she nodded at him and so he left.

When he came back after some while, she had already changed into the dry clothes and was currently still drying her hair with a small towel.

He walked closer to her and held the towel, "Let me," he offered and started drying her hair. On a second thought, this was a bad idea. She was so close, her starry eyes and alluring lips kept calling unto him and so, he couldn’t help it.

He didn’t know when he just clashed his lips against hers and kissed her as he held her cheeks. But she soon shoved him away.

Surprise still plastered on her face as she stared intensly at him.
