Chapter 63 - Doubts and Answers (1/2)

As soon as they are inside the room, Jennet let go of his hand. Crossing arms across her chest, she glowered at him.

”Unbelievable!” She said with an angry tone.

Hue cowered and smiled sheepishly at her. Umm, should he snap his fingers to control her or undress her to make her forget about getting angry?

”You're creepy.” She said, stating a truth, out of the blue.

Hue's smiley face turned gloomy. ”I am not,” He denied.

”I am adorable.” He said, correcting her statement.

Jennet shook her head and said, ”You are not adorable but creepy. You knew where I am. You see, this hotel is far from the city and also far from home but you managed to find me here. Did you by chance bugged me?” There was a twisted expression on her face.

She just can't believe that he would be able to locate her exact location. She thought he wouldn't know but he appeared in front of her. The man whom she now called as her husband is really a creepy person. He may be an experienced bugger.

”Well, it was just a hunch because I really miss you.” He replied, ”You know, telepathy between a very compatible couple.” He added with wide smiles.

Jennet was even unhappy hearing his answer. His explanation sounds funny to her but at the same time not so funny for her burning heart.

She shook her head and waved her hand, dismissing her unhappy feeling, ”Speaking about compatible, that Katerina Weiss, how did she knew you're here or rather, did you two promised to meet here? Trying to have some, I don't know, lovey-dovey 'fun' behind my back?” She asked.

In her sternness, there was jealousy moulded together in it. A fit of desperate jealousy from a tormented wife!

Hue gasped with excitement. ”Have you finally paid attention to me now?”

For a moment, the overwhelming feeling he felt during the 'life and death' situation earlier, disappeared into a blink of an eye.

Jennet glared at him, grunting while at it, ”I am serious here. I meant what I say just now.”

Hue pouted. He slumped his bums onto one of the sofas and hug one pillow.

”Not telling you.” He answered childishly and averted her stern gaze.

If his wife refused to acknowledge her own feelings towards him, then, he too, wouldn't reveal the truth to her. It's a good bargain of giving and takes. If she refused then, both party will suffer and he was prepared and willing to suffer together with her.

Jennet slouched and slapped her own forehead in frustration along with a sigh.

Why is he being difficult? She wanted to have a clear explanation because to accept him, she requires a great amount of honesty from him.

Hue peeked at her through the corner of his eyes. 'Refusing me, we will suffer together but accepting me, we will rejoice together.' He mumbled inwardly.

Jennet looked up to the ceiling, inhaling and exhaling a deep breath. Alright, she has to avoid getting angry for now. Yup, she has to stay calm and composed as always.

Jennet glanced at him and straighten her back, ”Fine, I am admitting that I care a great deal about you. Okay, now your turn,” She pointed at him, ”you still have not explained to me about your identity. You said I have to learn to accept your difference and I am trying. So, you tell me now, what is your real identity?” She asked in a tone as calm as possible.

She had enough of his suspicious identity. He appeared out of nowhere, scared her out of her wit, making her insecure day and night with each and every decision she made.

Hub looked up to her, ”You said you cared about me. Is there no love from you for me, for your pitiful and abandoned husband?” He asked, begging for her ultimate consolation.

”If you're honest with me then, I'll try to love you,” Jennet replied.

Hue pouted even more. He stomped his feet continuously while crying out, ”I don't want you to say you will try to love me. I want you to say you love me with all your heart. I also need you to be honest with me, not just me being honest. It's just unfair for me!”

Jennet bit her own lips, unable to utter a single word. She spun her body around with one hand on her hips and another one, covering her mouth.

Love him with all her heart? Will she able to say she loves him? Expressing her love will turn her into an entirely different person and will he loves her in return is he knows her true personality?

Well, she never had the gut to utter the three words to anyone before. She chose him out of goodwill and out of her own selfish desire to snatch the chance to try loving a man. But...

She turned around again, staring at him and asked, ”Are you sure you really love me and not just my body? I am still feeling insecure even after what you had said last night.”

”Was that the cause you ran away from home? I am your husband. Please just believe me. I really, really love you with all my heart. I am loyal and faithful only to you. Even that taxi driver asked me to marry his daughter but I refused. I only need you not another woman.” He explained getting sentimental at the same time.

Jennet leant against the wall, looking at him with a sinister smile. She just heard a piece of import information from his explanation.

”So, you came here in a taxi? Where did you get the money to pay for the fee?” She asked. Her doubt built up again.

He was so suspicious. He had no job and only knows to do house chores. But, he came to find her in a taxi. The fee might not be cheap considering the distance between the villa and the hotel.

Hue frowned, ”Don't get the wrong idea, my love. That money was from the exchange of my power.” He explained.

”What power?” She asked. Her tone was low and cold. She was mentally prepared to listen to his answer.

”The power to tra...” Hue paused and then realised that he had fallen into her sly trick. He was so mad and was not aware that he had just leaked a piece of his little secret.

Jennet inhaled another deep breath. She took a seat on one of the sofas opposite him.

Staring into his beautiful jade-blue eyes, she said, ”See, even you are trying to be secretive with me. If you're going to be secretive and so will I. But, if you didn't want to, then, today, let's clear all the insecurity and doubts that we have between us.”

Hue smiled at her. That was what he had been waiting for. It was a good thing that she asked for it first.
