Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice

Chapter 65 - She's Just Lazy



Ethan drop her off in her office. He bent out and gave her a kiss. She still feel unwell from what happened. The trauma and everything. He reach her hand before she enter the office. It's been a while since they last make love. It's been a while since she cuddle on him like a kitten.

"Aria." She turn to him not looking into his eyes. He reach her chin and make her look into his eyes. "Baby, no matter what happens, you own me. You have my heart and my soul." She bit her lower lip to avoid crying. She sniffled and look away. "I'll pick you up for lunch. You have two body guards around you—you may not notice them but they will protect you from everything."

She nodded and wrapped her arms around him. He hugged her back and kisses her top head. He watch her enter the building until she enter the elevator. He drove to his office and still feel uneasy. It's been long since the last hearing. Now, they will present evidences so she would be in jail for lifetime. But their ace was still hidden. Not until their sister is ready to reveal it.

He sat down on his table and the first thing he saw was the photo of him and her in Hawaii in their white clothes after their wedding. She look so beautiful and she smile so genuinely. He pull out his phone and texted her.

Ethan: Baby, craving for something?

Baby Doll: I'm fine.

Ethan: Okay.

He called his secretary and tell her to buy a rosemary plant enough for the desk, dark chocolate and a small teddy bear. It took the secretary two hours to get it all and send it to his wife's office. After few moment, his phone chimes. He left the paper works and checked her message.

Baby Doll: You will always have my heart.

With her reply, his heart melts. Uneasiness washes off. Those words was precious to him. He reply her with heart and kisses. He put down his phone and started working. He just finished half of it when his secretary reminds him of the lunch meeting with his wife.

He pick up his coat and wallet then he drove to her office. He pick her up at the reception area. He kisses her head and bring her to his car outside. He opened the car door and drive her to one of her favorite restaurant. But before they got out, she reached for a paper bag and started vomiting.

"You okay?" He rubbed her back. She kept vomiting as he search for paper bags. He couldn't find any so, he stepped out and ran to the seven-eleven, where he bought paper bags and water. He gave it to her full of worry and she keep on vomiting until there's nothing. "I'm taking you to the hospital." He drove to the hospital and let her lean on him.

He carried her to the emergency room and panics. She holds him while assuring him that she's fine.

"Baby, I don't know what's happening. Did you eat something?" She thought of something.

The doctor came and check her. She said that they will run a few test on her and Ethan nodded. Then they consulted an obstetrician. After a while, it was positive that she's pregnant. Yet they still have to do some other tests to find out.

Ethan was quiet until they saw the ultrasound. There's a small heartbeat inside her stomach and she can feel it. She look so happy seeing the life inside her. She reach on to Ethan's hand holding it tightly.

"There it is." The doctor said happily. "Congratulations to the two of you. She's twelve weeks pregnant and she needs extra care. Her uterus is healthy and she will be able to undergo the natural birth. But we still have to monitor the baby's health."

"Understood." Ethan takes note of it and he immediately search for the best obstetrician for her.

He holds her until they got to the car. He made sure that she's in a good condition. He even drive slowly just to make sure that his wife and his baby won't get hurt.

"Ethan, I am fine. You can drive normally. The other cars might get annoy at you." She said with chuckle. She caresses her abdominal.

"What do you want to eat?" He asked and increase the speed.

"I am not craving for food—well except for your sister's graham cake."

"I will ask her to make it." He said dotingly and called her. She's not picking up so he call the house.

"Rose Villa." The butler answer.

"It's Ethan where's my sister?"

"She's in the living room, sir. Reading."

"Oh. Could you please tell her to make graham ref cake? My wife is craving for it."

"I'll tell her immediately."

"Thanks."

He hold his wife's hand and kisses it. He escorted her to her office to get her things. He personally apologize to the manager about her missing the afternoon. He shows him few medical records and the manager understood him.

He then went to the office and pick up a few papers and told his secretary to make arrangements on his schedule. Aria was sitting on the couch while waiting for him as he gives instructions to his secretary. His Sunday and Saturday will always be vacant for him to spend time with her.

They reach home and he told the maids to prepare dinner for seven people. Aria was still getting used to his caring nature. He even carried her to the bed and removed her shoes. He took a towel and soak in warm water then he wipe it on her feet.

"Ethan." She weans. "I am fine." She yawns.

"I want to do this. Okay?" she nodded and yawns again. He help her remove her clothes and change it into comfortable home clothes. "Sleep. I'll order few foods." She nodded. He kisses her lips and excitedly got out and called Enzo and Sabrina. Since Sabrina is unreachable, he call Gabriel. "To my house at eight. Dinner will be here."

"House?" Gabriel was surprised.

"We have another celebration."

"Oh." Gabriel had guessed it already. "Okay. We will be there."

"And your wife better make that Graham Mango Cake." Gabriel chuckled.

♥♥♥

Sabrina is sitting on the peaceful living room reading. She finishes two books with 500 pages each. Her butt might be numb but she frowned when the butler interrupt her to something that wasn't really important.

"Madam, Master Ethan want you to make it, right away." She wave him off and just sit there.

After six, Gabriel arrived and saw her still sitting on the same couch from where he last left her. He sigh and kisses her top head.

"Hi, wifey. Get dress. We are having dinner at Ethan's." She put a bookmark and closes the book. Then she jump into him like a koala. "Hmmm… my koala needs massage. Right?" She nodded and kisses his lips. "But… we are having dinner at Ethan's. Did you make that Grahams?" She sigh and rolled her eyes.

He went to the fridge and rummage there. There are still two trays that she make. So he took it and ask the butler to put it on the icebox. He then bring the lazy Koala that has been clinging into him the whole time he arrive to their bedroom and pick something for her to wear.

"Why are you so lazy today?" She pouted and roll on bed. "Come on, put this on." She lazily drag her body to put the clothes on. Then she clung into him again until they reach the car. "Brina, don't be lazy at the dinner. Okay?" She snuggle on him like a kitten.

He put her on the passenger seat and put the seatbelt on. As soon as he settled in the driver seat, she remove the seat belt, adjust the seat backward and move into his lap. She snuggle on him.

"Brina, I have to drive."

"Hmm." She shook his head.

He exhales and drive slowly with her sitting on his lap sideways. Though it was dangerous he manage to arrive there safely. Next time, he won't let her do that thing again. She got out lazily and he took the ice box from the backseat. She raise her arms to him with annoyed pouty lips.

"Brina, you need to walk." She shook her head. "Okay." He spread his arms and she jump into him wrapping her arms and legs around him and he walk with a koala in front of him as an accessory. The maid reach the ice box that he brought with him.

"What the fu--!" Enzo was surprised at the two. "Oh, come on! Stop clinging!" He tried to pull Sabrina but she flick his forehead. "Brother in law just got off from work." She shook her head.

"It's alright. She's just lazy." He still smiled and adore her. Though he's tired from work, but all of his tiredness got relieved because of her.
