Chapter 11 Marrying Secretly: Your Wife is Alive


/ 1

"We have found him."
John was running inside to inform her.
"What??? Where???"
"They haven't left the country. They are living in a small town far from here."
"How did you find them???"
"They recently got themselves registered in a police case."
"That's good news. Let go then."
"I think we can get him here. Why are you bothering yourself??? We have some important meetings here. I will get him here. You should stay here."
"No, I don't care. I wanna see that cheater. I am coming that's final."
"Okay. I will make the arrangements."
She was looking really angry. She changed immediately and after half an hour they were going to get him. On the way, she was thinking of a way of torturing him.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"What happened??? Are you not coming to the clinic today???"
"I am not feeling well. I wanna take some rest. I will be there in the evening shift."
Xavier asked Jenny who wasn't getting up. She was still closing her eyes.
"What happened??? Why didn't you tell me???"
"You were so tired last night. I took the medicine and I thought I would be fine but I am not feeling better. I think it's just my workload."
"Don't take this so casually. I think we should go for your checkup."
"I am fine Xavier. Trust me. Go to the clinic. I promise I would call you if anything happens."
"Okay, I will be calling you again. Take care."
He kissed her and left for work. It was a great day just like the other days. After he started dating Jenny. He started taking his job seriously.
He wanted to give her a better life. At least the life she left for him. He was working hard to earn money and get her a great house.
He knew she wanted to marry him and she had given him the hints too but he wanted to secure both of their future and then take the next step.
He still misses Hazel but he never tells Jenny about her. His life was getting better and he was finally getting back on track. No doubt jenny was helping him do that too.
During break time as usual he took a walk and grabbed his meal from his favourite cafe. After having his lunch and getting satisfied with Jenny's health. He was sitting there and looking at the coffee he ordered.
The heart shape was reminding him of the first time he had the cafe with hazel. She was very shy that day. Although they were strangers that day Xavier knew she was different.
He couldn't keep his eyes off her. He was still thinking of the moment when they started dating and there was a time in his marriage when They both used to share some coffee.
Those were the most beautiful days of his life and he remembered each and everything. Sadly, every time he gets on that memory trip he has to stop where he dropped Hazel at her home.
He regrets that decision more than anything. He somehow feels guilty because he forced her to go there. He just wanted some time to arrange a surprise for her.
He came out of his trance and still that burning house was not getting out of his head. He started sipping his coffee and started looking away.
There was a couple with a baby and he was thinking if the time when Hazel was pregnant. The best days of his life.
After having his coffee. He was getting out of the cafe when He saw Jenny walking towards him.
"Hey, baby. Are you alright???"
"Yeah, I am fine."
"I told you to take the whole day off. Come on."
"I am fine Xav. I wanted to have lunch and also I wanted to tell you something."
"Oh really. Come on. I will give you my company then."
While Jenny was enjoying her lunch he was staring at that couple again.
"You like babies don't you???"
"Of course I do. You know How much I wanted to have a baby girl. Hazel was always getting annoyed with that. "
"What about now???"
"What now??? How's it possible now? She is gone. The only child we were having is gone. "
"Duffer. I am talking about our baby. Don't you want to start a family with me???"
That question was unexpected. He stared at her and then.
"Our baby??? Seriously??? "
"Yeah, I mean. It's okay if you don't want any. I don't have any problem. You are enough for me."
"Are you mad??? Why would I do that??? I would love that. We will plan our baby after our wedding if that's not a problem for you. "
"Did you just propose to me???"
She wasn't believing her ears
"I mean. We are going to marry someday. But I have to be stable before that. I want to give you a Good Life. I want my baby to come into this world when his Dad can afford anything for him."
Jenny was feeling so overwhelmed by that conversation. Finally what she wanted was happening. Xavier accepted her. He was talking about their wedding which meant he gave it a thought.
She couldn't contain her happiness and kissed him immediately.
"Easy babe.. control yourself. I will be coming home tonight. And your mood is looking good. So I think we should enjoy this night your way."
"Oh really??? Then be a ready babe. I have a surprise ready for you."
"Well, I am not gonna get surprised. I know you must have bought something to seduce me. To take advantage of my body again."
They started laughing. She hugged him and after that, she held his hand and they were walking back to the clinic.
He was about to cross the road when some cars stopped in front of them.
They bother were shocked. But before they interpreted anything Xavier was about to pass out.
He saw Hazel's Grandpa's bodyguard getting out of the car.
Before He reacted John opened the door of the back seat and Xavier couldn't believe his eyes.
Jenny's hand slipped from his and he was frozen.
"Hazel."
He couldn't even say that loudly. That word was hurting his neck and was hanging inside like a knot. He couldn't believe his eyes.
His Wife who was presumed dead for almost more than a year was standing right in front of him and that too In her great health. Without any disability.
So many questions were rising in his mind but an unimaginable thing was going to happen to him now.
