“Here’s the special coffee for my boss,” Hope said, forwarding a mug to him.
“Thank you,” Logan took a sip and felt great. On the other hand, she rested her lower
against the edge of the table and enjoyed the coffee.
“My work is almost finished. Also, Logan, we need to go to the hospital for the dressing of your wound,” Hope opined and turned her gaze at him. She then straightened up and turned to face him.
“Shall we dine outside today? How about a candle light dinner?” Hope suggested to him, a tiny smile gracing her lips.
“Yeah, sure,” Logan agreed to her. He asked her to sit and the two talked for a while. After finishing their coffee, Hope took away the mugs while Logan did the final signing on the papers. His hand was in pain because of the deep cut. When the pen fell from his hand, Logan realized he needed to give a rest to his hand for its quick healing.
Hope stepped into the office and found him picking his blazer up. “Are we leaving?” she asked. An employee entered in the office and greeted Logan.
“Take these files and inform Paul that we are leaving,” Logan instructed her. He glanced at Hope, gesturing to her to collect her office bag as they had to leave. She was quick in packing her things and the two left.
Upon getting into the backseat of the car, Logan instructed the driver to take them to the hospital.
“Your hand... Is it fine?” Hope suddenly grasped his hand and looked at the blood stain on the bandage. It panicked her. “Your wound is open. | think you didn’t give it enough rest,” she murmured.
Lifting her head, Hope said, “Take off for tomorrow.”
“| cannot. I’ve work to do. Moreover, it's not a big thing,” Logan opined.
“It is a big thing for me. Your hand need rest, so do you, Hope asserted. “I don’t want to hear anything on this,” she sternly stated and quickly took out her phone from inside her pocket.
“Whom are you calling?” Logan inquired with a confused expression on his grimace.
“Hi, Paul. Sorry to disturb you like this. Logan will take a day off tomorrow. His hand has bled and | want him to rest. Yeah. Thanks. Bye.” Hope hung up the call and gazed at her husband.

“That wasn’t needed, Darling.” Logan said and ended up smiling to see her care toward him.
“It isn’t wrong to take care of your body. Do you want your hand to take more time to heal? Work can be neglected for one or two days, but health can’t be. Do you understand?” Hope strictly asked him. If Logan would not take care of himself, then she had to do that work.
“Yeah, | understand, Wife,” he pronounced..
Shortly, they reached the hospital, where Logan had his wound dressed. Hope cancelled. the plan to have dinner outside. Instead, she called Camila and asked her to cook Logan’s favorite dishes.
“We could have dined outside,” Logan stated when Hope pushed him inside the car and sat next to him from the other side. “Didn't you hear the doctor? You need to give your hand rest, Hope stated and glanced at the driver. “Please drive to home,” she urged.
Logan rested his head on Hope’s shoulder and held her hand. “Thanks, Hope. | have never taken care of myself in this way. | feel joyous and my heart flutters seeing the way you take care of me,” he whispered.
Hope smiled and tilted her head to glance at him. “That’s good to hear. Of course, you should feel happy,” she murmured.
Their gazes brimmed with affection as Logan felt the urge to kiss her, but he restrained himself, mindful of the driver’s presence in the car.
Upon reaching the villa, they ascended the stairs together. As Hope kicked off her heels. and turned to assist Logan with removing his upper garments, he seized the moment, drawing her closer to him.
Their lips collided in a fervent kiss, stealing the breath from her lungs entirely. He shoved his tongue shoved inside her mouth, giving her the chance to suck in the air. His left hand moved to the back of her hand. Giving a slight tilt to her head, he the
got perfect angle to explore her mouth well.
Oppositely, Hope could hardly keep up with his kisses. However, when he slowed down, she could match his rhythm. They finally pulled away, catching their breaths.
Hope’s chest rose and fell while their nuzzled their noses.
“Want to take shower together?” Logan asked.
“Your hand shouldn’t get wet, Hope reminded him.
“Then, what about the bath in the tub?” He suggested.
Hope amusedly peered into his eyes and then bit her bottom lip. First say, | love you and I'll bathe with you.” she gave him a challenge. She knew he was afraid to say those words to him. Hope felt if she would try this way, perhaps he would say it.
“| don’t want to lose you,” Logan said, a fear was evident in his voice and eyes.
“You won't.” Hope replied and pecked his lips after she tip-toed. She didn’t force him to confess his love with those words and gently removed his tie.
Ti sorry. Hope. I’m not a good husband.” Logan apologized for not fulfilling her
wishes.
Shut up! Hope hit his arm softly. “You are the best husband. A wonderful man with a beautiful soul’ she armed with a smile.
Her hands deftly removed the buttons on his shirt and she pulled it off his body. She planted a kiss on the left of his chest, making him close his eyes.
“I'll prepare the bathtub for us, Hope stated as she pulled away and headed to the washroom
Roaxana entered her car and drove it out of the parking lot when her phone suddenly rang. She saw it was from Isaac and she applied the brakes to take his call.
“Are you free from work?” Isaac asked from the other side.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“Yeah, I’m heading to the home, Roavana replied.
“Umm... Can you come to the Divine Moon Hotel or should | pick you up?” Isaac inquired from the other side.
“A hotel? Why? | told you we couldn’t date.” Roaxana asserted.
“Just come or I’ve to take you out of your car.” Isaac stated.
Roaxana quickly looked around to sean her eyes in the parking lot. She couldn’t spot anyone and wondered how Isaac found out she was in the car.
“Think later and just come to the hotel. I'll be waiting for you.” Isaac said.
“Sorry, | cannot come there,” Roaxana refused. “Good night,” she asserted and hung up the call on him. Upon reaching home, she met her Grandpa first to tell him about the deal she signed today. She was delighted and excited to have this new deal in her pocket

“Now, go and freshen up. We all need to do dinner,” said Anna, her mother.
Roaxana nodded at her and went to her room. After freshening up, she changed into a casual pair of clothes and ran downstairs. While having dinner, she wondered if she was rude to Isaac.
‘But if | hadn’t refused him directly, he would have thought | was interested in him,’ she thought.
“Roxy, what are you thinking? The food is getting colder,” Anna reprimanded her daughter.
“Sorry, I’ve to go outside. I’ve an urgent
causing everyone to shock for a momek Roaxana suddenly left the dinner table,
“This girl! She is always busy at work,” Anna murmured.
Roaxana picked up the keys and checked her phone. She had several missed calls from Isaac and because she had turned her phone on silent, she couldn’t get them.
“Da mn!” Roaxana ran out of the house and asked the driver to drive her to Divine Moon Hotel. She was exhausted and wasn't in a mood to drive, so asking the driver to drop her at the hotel was the best option.
When she tried to call Isaac, it couldn’t connect for some reason. “This guy! | told him | would not come,” Roaxana murmured. Finally, she arrived at the hotel in her casual home clothes. The manager led her way to the private room, which Isaac had booked for them.
As soon as she entered the room, she scolded Isaac for not going home. “Where is your phone?” Roaxana looked quite angry. “It's here,” Isaac said, “its battery is dead. | didn’t know you would come,” he stated.
“I had no plans. But then, you would have stayed the entire night here. | know this,” Roaxana proclaimed and looked at the table. “I'm hungry. Let’s have dinner,” she said and sat on the chair.
Isaac smiled and called for the waiter. He was happy that Roaxana came to have dinner with him.
