Chapter 718 - Still Loving (2/2)
When he knew that Anya wanted to meet him, Aiden immediately ran as fast as possible. He left the room, not caring if he had to welcome the guests.
When he opened the door, he saw his little wife sitting on the sofa with her eyes closed. Her feet were lifted up on the sofa, and her face was buried in her knees as he crouched in the corner. She was like a lost child, only able to hug herself as she tried to find a way out of this world.
Anya did not open her eyes even though she heard familiar footsteps.
After entering the room, Aiden closed the door and walked towards the edge of the sofa. He sat beside Anya and stretched out his hand, waiting for her to accept it.
Anya looked at Aiden, not welcoming the helping hand, but not rejecting it either.
Aiden took Anya into his arms softly and whispered, ”You're back!”
”Hmm...” Anya muttered as she closed her eyes once again, resting her head on her husband's chest.
Anya was so small, so tiny in his arms. But Aiden felt like he had regained a part of himself that had disappeared.
The man took Anya into his lap and felt his little wife getting lighter. ”I miss you so much,” he whispered.
Anya didn't say anything, but she buried her body deeper in Aiden's arms and smelled her husband's perfume.
She knew this fragrance, it was the one that she gave...
”A while ago, I had a small surgery,” said Aiden.
”When we were on the island, I felt you were hiding something from me,” Anya lifted her head and hugged Aiden's neck, as she always did. She looked anxiously at her husband's handsome face. ”Are you okay?”
”After I got home, I had all the company matters sorted out and gone for surgery. I've had a lot of rest and I'm recovering the last few weeks,” Aiden replied.
”Do you also want to hear me say that I have recovered?” Anya stared at him deeply.
”Anya, let me face all this together with you. There's no need to pretend to be okay, no need to pretend to be happy. I want to share everything with you,” Aiden looked at her with his gentle yet sorrowful eyes.
Anya was finally back and he didn't want to lose her again!
”You are sick, but you don't want to tell me anything about it. I know you thought of something else. I can only pretend I'm getting better so as not to make you worry even more. I don't want to add to your burden. Luckily, the doctor said I was getting better and you are recovering.” Anya hugged Aiden's neck, leaning her forehead against the man's.
”Aiden, do you still love me?”
”I love you. I love you and will always love you until the end of my life,” Aiden replied.
”I love you too. I'm sorry for everything I said when I was sick. I said I wanted a divorce, I said I wanted to leave you, but none of them were my wish. At that time, I just wanted to run away from that life, so…”
Without waiting for Anya to finish her sentence, Aiden immediately held the back of her head and kissed her lips.
”I…” Anya wanted to finish her words, but Aiden didn't let her go.
He didn't care what Anya said before. The important thing is, Anya still loves him and he loves her a lot too.
Aiden doesn't want to let Anya go for the second time. The more he kissed Anya's lips, the more the love he felt. He really loves this woman in front of him. He loves his wife more than himself.
Finally, Aiden just let go of Anya after she was out of breath.
He leaned over and whispered, ”You are finally back. Do you want to leave me again?”
