Marriage for Revenge
Trying to Believe Again

"Mor-ku"

"Yes?" Maura looked impatient.

"I'll try to trust you again. But I'm asking you not to break my trust like yesterday!" Say Dave softly.

Maura immediately burst into her husband's arms, something warm crossing her heart. He's really happy tonight.

"Thank you Dave" Maura said in a raucous voice.

Dave touched Maura's chin, he looked at the pale blue-eyed bead deeply. Then he buried his kiss on Maura's lips, looking Maura's eyes bought in surprise, silent for a while only the sound of the clang of the wall clock was heard until then Maura released the kiss.

"Dave, you always kissed me!" Maura pursed her lips.

Dave laughed crisply, and he hugged his wife fondly, "you're my wife."

"Then tell me do you love me?" Ask Dave seriously.

Maura seemed to think, she then looked at her husband who was waiting for an answer from her. "I've been in love with you for a long time. Ever since I framed you and decided to get away from your side"

Dave seemed surprised to hear Maura's statement, he looked into Maura's eyes, there were no lies in them. "Then why did you set me up back then?"

Maura lets go of Dave's embrace, then sits herself on the sofa facing the window so they both seem to be enjoying the view of Paris.

"I just want you to take responsibility for what happened to my best friend, that's all."

"Then, is it true you ever slept with Becca?" Maura continued again with passionate curiosity.

Dave saw Maura's expression, and then tried to tease her. Maura watched Dave who was thinking

"I forgot" said Dave, rising from his seat and pretending to be leaving Maura's room.

"You don't leave before you answer my question!" Maura tugged at Dave's hand, then chased after the tall man's steps.

Dave then stopped his steps. Dave seemed to think again. A smile appeared on his lips. "I forgot."

"Dave!!!" Shouted Maura, Maura put on a very irritated face. She then slid into the arms of her husband. A comfortable and soothing hug.

"Let's answer my question!" Maura won't give up, she hugs Dave firmly.

"If I don't sleep with Rebecca, do you believe me?" Dave answered that made Maura shut up.

"I'm just going to sleep with my wife" Dave's voice rang out, he then carried Maura and put her to bed.

Dave locked onto Maura's body with his, a red hue poking out on the girl's cheek. It felt like there were hundreds of butterflies tickling his stomach. Maura covered her face with her hands, she felt very ashamed of Dave.

"Dave, what do you want?" Maura asked cautiously as Dave unbuttoned his shirt one by one.

"Dave, sorry! It doesn't seem like it now, I'm coming by the moon" Maura replied, which left Dave pensive for a moment.

Valerie has been visiting Europeen Hospital for two weeks to visit Razel, who is recovering. As of today, he brought Razel's favorite Ratatouille. Valerie cooked it herself.

"Val?" Sapa Esme, Razel's mother.

"Auntie, can Valerie go see Razel?" Valerie asked with a friendly face.

"By, Son. Come inside!" Answer Esme.

Since the arrival of Valerie who often visited Razel, Esme and Eric looked close to Valerie. They even really liked that cute girl. Valerie's friendly nature and caring for others touched Esme's heart.

"Razel?" Sapa Valerie, she saw Razel sitting on the edge of her bed.

"Val?" Razel seemed happy and excited, lately he was always thinking and waiting for Valerie's presence. Her days felt much more enjoyable with the girl.

"Let's take a walk in the park!" Valerie looked for the helper stick for Razel, then Valerie immediately grabbed the man's arm gently. When feeling Valerie's touch, Razel felt sad he felt like a useless man

"Val don't be like this! I can walk on my own" Razel let go of Valerie's hand, and then she moved her wand.

At the sight of the hospital's trash can, Valerie immediately ran ahead of Razel. He shifts the trash can so Razel doesn't crash into it and fall over.

Valerie then follows Razel again, Razel is seen walking through the hospital hallway. Seen a lot of nurses who passed by with his busyness. Some were pushing wheelchairs, some were running towards the ambulance by pushing a gurney towards the ambulance that stopped in the hospital courtyard.

"Razel, lookout!" Valerie hugged Razel from behind as a nurse pushed the gurney in haste. Razel was stunned he let go of Valerie's embrace.

"Razel, what's wrong with you?" Valerie felt anxious when she saw the grieving Razel.

"I feel useless being a man, even walking I have to be helped by others."

"You are a useful child for your parents and around you. Be excited for your parents! I promise Brother Dave will soon find an eye donor for you," Valerie looked sober, she then hugged Razel to give comfort to the grieving man.

Valerie immediately took Razel again, they walked side by side with a very close distance.

"There are times when someone also needs someone else" Valerie said cheerfully.

"Thank you, Val. You are my best friend."

A pal? Hearing those words, Valerie felt disappointed. Why he wishes he wanted more than Razel. Has he fallen in heart? No. gabe. No. gabe.. Valerie did this because she just wanted to make amends for her brother, not some other reason. He must strengthen his heart, so as not to get carried away with Razel.
