Dale’s Arrange Wife (ENGLISH VERSION)

“Mommy’s great, isn’t she?” Lauren asks the three while leaning on her lap. She played her kalimba and the three were very happy. She saw it when she was cleaning and ask me to teach her. I told her that she can play it before losing her memory.

“Hubby?”

“Hmm?”

“I can’t still believe I can play it.”

“Play what?”

“Kalimba, I wanted to play this since I was a kid.”

“You already told me.” She lowered the kalimba and looked at me.

“Really?”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Yup.”

“And I’ve already told you a lot.”

“Almost.”

No one spoke when she suddenly hugged me. We are in our room while waiting for time. She has a walk later because she and Hendrick will meet. While Dylan invited me.

It’s been a month since I was released from the hospital. Everything is fine between the two of us. Our old closeness is back and we are happy. Aunt Laura’s case is ongoing. At first, Lauren was affected but now, I can say she is ok.

“Hey, what’s wrong?” She shook her head and pushed herself closer to me. I smell her scent and I feel relief. I put my hand on her back and hugged her. “The child is tender.” I tease her.

She even buried her head in my chest so I could smell her hair more.

“Hey, what happened?” I ask.

“No, I just want to smell you. I feel relief when I smell your scent.”

“Really?” I asked with a smile.

“Yeah.” Then she looked up and snorted so I kissed her. “Hubby, I have a question.”

“Spill.”

“When I didn’t have amnesia, did we—–” But she didn’t finish what she was going to say.

“What?”

“Did we do?”

“Huh? What do you mean?”

“The—-hemp, did we.” I know what she wanted to say but fuck—— I don’t want to answer. I miss her so damn much and maybe if I answer her, she cants go anywhere because I swear, I will claim her.

“It’s time, wife, you need to fix yourself. You’re going to leave and I’ll take you because Dylan and I also had a walk.”

“Where are you going?” she asked without leaving my chest.

“I don’t know, Dylan didn’t tell me.”

“Can you pick me up later? On the rooftop of his agency, he said he just prepared dinner there.”

“Sure.” She stood up and sat on the bed. I also got up to get some clothes. “Wife?”

“Yes, hubby?” I look at her and smile. I just wanted to tell her that I love her and I miss her. “Hubby?”

“Nothing, just fix yourself.”

She entered the bathroom. I finished first so I left the room. I just waited for her in the living room. After a few minutes, she came out.

I look at her from head to toe. She was wearing too short clothes and her body was almost visible. It seems that nothing is almost covered by her. I wanted to reprimand her for what she was wearing but I chose not to.

“Let’s go.” She nodded and we went out together.

I drop her at the agency. She kissed me before getting out of the car. I didn’t take her inside and went straight to the place Dylan said.

When I arrived at Cupid, I immediately looked for him. As usual, it’s noisy, crowded, and smells like cigarette smoke. I immediately went to the exclusive room just for him.

I am expecting a woman with him. But I was surprised when he was sitting there alone. He had no company except wines and food. He was holding something I didn’t know what and seemed to be deep in thought because he didn’t notice my arrival.

“Dylan.”

“Oh, there you are.” He put what he was holding in his pocket and took out the bottle.

“Something wrong?” I don’t know where it came from. I just thought he might have a problem. He looked like he was thinking because he didn’t notice me.

“Nothing.” But Dylan is a kind person who doesn’t say anything. He keeps everything out and solves it secretly.

“Where’re your girls?” I asked jokingly.

“No, I don’t want anyone now. I want brother bonding. I really want to call Dave and Wallace because Erika is in the hospital confined but it’s okay. Nothing will be left of Dustle. Wallace is too obsessed with your sister and doesn’t even want to leave the house unless it’s really important.”

“Then that’s good.”

“Hmph. Better.” Dylan handed me a bottle.

“So, how are you and Lauren?” he asked. I had just finished drinking when he asked me.

“We’re good. She’s with Hendrick now.”

“And you? How are you?” I leaned my back and smirked.

“I can say I am ok. I think.”

“Is it really okay?” I sighed and bowed.

“She doesn’t remember me. We already talked before the accident and we want to start. But everything was lost when she got amnesia.”

“I wanted to help you. But your situation is difficult because your wife doesn’t remember anything. What will I say? I’ll just come off as a liar and make up a story. Do you love her?”

“Yeah, too much Dylan.”

“You have no choice but to wait for her.”

“The only thing I know.”

“So let’s just drink. That will also come back, if not you flirt secretly. You got her before so you can get her again now.”

“I know. Hey you, when are you going to move on?” He stopped drinking and reached into his pocket. In the pocket where he put the one, he touched earlier. “Dylan.”

“I saw someone earlier.” I sat up because of what he said. His face became serious when he said that.

“Who?” I ask.

“Hunter.”

“Hunter? That adoptee you are jealous of——”

“Yeah.” Well, we’re not close. I am not close to the adopted boys at home or any of the adopted children. I don’t know anyone except Hunter who Dave and Dylan are jealous of because he is close—–

“And you know what happened?” he asked.

“What?”

“He had a boy with him who called him daddy.”

“So? Maybe his son. More than ten years have passed. Who knows he is married.”

“I think because they also have a woman with them who I think is the child’s mother.” Ok, I got it. He is jealous because Hunter is happy in life and has a family. Whereas he was stocked in the past.

“His moving on, why don’t you do it? Everyone is moving on.”

“How can I do that? If the mother called Eros the boy who called Hunter daddy?” He looked at me and stared.

“You were an idol then, weren’t you? So he probably wants to copy you to everyone or maybe——”

“Fuck!” He held his head and then leaned back. So could he have invited me because this is really his reason? And that’s why he was so stupid earlier.

“Dylan, is it possible that——”

“I can’t get the right answer to that, Dale. I’ve been looking for him before but I can’t find him. Something that someone is protecting them. A big person because no matter what I do, I’m clueless, and there’s always no lead when it comes to him or even his shadow.”

“Oh.” So is he really hiding? I don’t know why I’m smiling. I am wishing my brother to be happy too. He deserves it. But what if he has a past that can’t be forgotten and seems to be coming back to him?

This is so fucking exciting. They are chasing his past including——-.

“I’m going to find Hunter. I need to get an answer why his son’s name is Eros. And if——–” But he did not continue what he was going to say. “I will really kill him when I see him and my suspicion is true.”

AFTER DYLAN AND I talked, I went straight to the place where Hendrick and Lauren met. The receptionist told me that they are still on the rooftop so I go there directly. The rooftop is open so when I got up I saw them right away.

I don’t want to interrupt them and I am willing to wait here until they will finish. I can stay here on the stairs as long as I can. At least I can see what they will do.

But I was surprised when Hendrick stood up. I don’t know what he is going to do but I was shocked when he kneeled in front of Lauren. When he took something from his pocket. Even though I couldn’t see what he was holding I was sure what it was. He opened the box and showed it to Lauren. Lauren looked at her when Hendrick mouthed something.

I am waiting for her to answer until Lauren holds his hands. She stood up to Hendrick and hugged the man then took the ring.

I turn my head and then leave. Fuck, I know she’s married to me and she’s mine on paper. But fuck again and again. Because I know I don’t own her heart. Even though they can’t get married right now but they can’t deny the fact that they are in love.

What if her memories never come back? What if Lauren leaves me now because Hendrick she will choose Hendrick over me? Will she leave me? Fuck, I am hurting.
