Chapter 60
The smell of disinfectant slowly drifted into her nose as she slowly opened her eyes and looked at the white roof.
“You are awake!” She felt her palm being gripped.
“Damien” She muttered the first name that came to her mind.
“It’s me. Don’t move I will call the doctor” He rubbed her hair slightly and stood up from the chair.
Just as he opened the door to step out, he saw Sixtus that stood at the door about to come in.
“Can I go in?” Sixtus asked but Damien shut the door behind him and didn’t let him go inside.
“Won’t you let me see the patient?” Sixtus pouted.
“You are not allowed to say anything to her, I will let her know myself!” Damien ordered.
“But the blood clot, if you let it stay it will only make things worst and the treatment might even be more difficult!” Sixtus frowned not knowing why he wants to keep such a thing as a secret.
But when he met Damien’s cold eyes he nodded before he even realized it.
“Fine! I won’t tell her” He could only compromise before Sixtus was allowed into the hospital room.
After a few body examination, he turned to Damien.
“There is no complication for now and she can go home to rest” Sixtus lied without blinking.
For the first time in his life, he lied to his patient.
“Thank you ” Scarlett replied to the doctor and closed her eyes.
“Why am I in the hospital?” She asked Damien with her eyes closed.
“Cold” Damien replied with one word but it caused Scarlett to open her eyes in doubts.
“I know that I’m not so fragile” She replied as if she didn’t believe him.
“Maybe you didn’t realize it, Since you are fine then you can be discharged.” Damien rubbed her hair but Scarlett looked at him intently.
What Lisa said resurfaced in her mind, it turned out that the person that she has always been fighting is right beside her.
This is one of the things she would never believe would happen to her in her life because it obviously doesn’t make any sense.
How did he become a The special Military commander?!
So the person that fought with her that night was him.
“Ahhhhhhh!” Scarlett forgot that was was a sick person and rubbed her hair angrily and frustrated.
“Are you ok?” Damien asked her.
“I’m fine” Scarlett replied dejectedly.
“You should change” After speaking, He turned and left the room to give her a chance to her change her dress.
Pushing everything, Scarlett changed into a casual dress that Damien brought over.
It was a Blue jeans and a white top.
After dressing she saw her phone that lay by the side, there were various calls from Lisa.
“She must have been worried” Scarlett muttered and decided to call back immediately.
“Star!” Lisa connected the call in just one ring.
“I’m fine” Scarlett replied.
“Fortunately, Did my words give you so much shock that you had to faint?!” Lisa asked.
“Maybe if really did” Scarlett raised her head and replied.
“Then I’m sorry about that. Fortunately you are find if not I will blame myself. When will you return?” Lisa asked.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
“I will ask Damien” She replied.
“About that? What are you going to do?” Lisa asked cautiously.
“Nothing” Scarlett replied.
“What do you mean nothing?! Aren’t you supposed to divorce him?” Lisa asked.
“Will you break up with Aiden because of it?” Scarlett asked her an unexpected question as Lisa coughed loudly from where she was
“You! How did you know?!” She asked.
“Is written all over the both of you” Scarlett replied her.
“When I get back we will meet” After sending the message Scarlett walked out of the room and saw Damien standing outside waiting for her
“Let’s go” Damien glanced at her and walked away first with Scarlett following behind him.
“Can you reduce your steps, You are walking too fast” Scarlett muttered as she felt difficult to get closer to him.
Damien stopped and glanced at her slender legs.
“The legs are indeed short ” He muttered.
“What! Whose legs are short?! It’s just that I’m weak. My legs are not short at all, it’s just that you have long legs” She pursed her lips and complained.
“Well it’s not short” He agreed with her but didn’t stop in his steps although it was slower than before.
They got to the car as Damien climbed the driver’s seat.
“What about Aiden?” Scarlett asked.
“He is with the kids” Damien replied as the memories of last night flooded Scarlett’s brain.
“I hope Dillan is fine. I hope he doesn’t have any trauma throughout his time of growing up” She muttered her heartfelt prayers.
“Don’t worry, The Psychologist already came and he doesn’t have a phobia. He recovered well from last night” Damien assured her.
“Thank you!” ‘Thank you for treating me sincerely and standing next to me’ She muttered the complete sentence in her heart.
“We are family” He glanced at her and held her hands with his left hand.
“I’m here you don’t have to worry about them” He assured her as Scarlett smiled at him.
‘When he is a ten but he is your friend-enemy’
Damien drove and stopped in front of the Family Villa.
“Why are you stopping here?” Scarlett glanced at him and asked.
“A lot of things needs to be made clear” Damien replied and got down from the car with her.
The both walked into the Villa, and unexpectedly the whole family were already waiting at the Living room.
Scarlett glanced at all of them and sighed slightly, some people were really lucky last night.
“Damien what do you mean by this?” His mother asked.
“Maybe because I haven’t talked about the rules of this household for a long time, you all forgot where you belong” Damien glanced at everyone of them.
“One! Whom I marry has nothing to do with you all!”
“But she is unclean and has two bastards! You can’t just accept them as your kids!” Cherry yelled.
“Two! You are just an adopted daughter of Mrs. Malcolm and that doesn’t make you my sister!”
“Brother!”
“As far as I’m here! Her Authority is the same with mine! Even if I’m not there, she will still be here!”
“She is my wife and she is my person for the the rest of my life. If you have a problem with it, You can move out and make a living for yourself!” Damien’s cold voice sounded sending trauma into their hearts.
“My Kids are my kids and I don’t need you to tell me how to live” After speaking he didn’t mind what they are thinking and held Scarlett’s hand leading her out.
Scarlett could feel her heart beating Really fast and her face turning red.
“You really didn’t have to do that” Scarlett spoke after the left the living room.
“No. Because you are mine, so I won’t let others bully you!” After speaking he wrapped his strong arm around her waist and pushed her closer to himself.
Scarlett blinked her eyes twice not knowing how to react, she could only see his face coming closer to her until his lips met with hers.
The tremors ran down her spine with her eyes widened in shock
