Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

He put his arms around her shoulders and leaned against her. She could feel his breath on her.

The child stayed quietly in her arms, and there were still fears brimming from his eyes from the fierce crying earlier. The room felt extraordinarily quiet after his loud cry. He stared at the two of them curiously. His eyes were big and inquisitive. He just stared at them, and stopped crying.

Olivia closed her eyes and said helplessly, "Sure, we can talk but please don't holdlike this." "I feel more at ease holding you while we talk." She was speechless at what he said, but was also a tad moved by his words.

"You barely spent any twith the child, and you refused to even talk to me. It's not because you're tired, but because you want to leave me, right?" She kept quiet.

Did it mean she admitted? Sam took a deep breath and explained with a soft voice, "If it was because of what happened at the supermarket that day, I swear I am innocent." Innocent? Olivia sneered in her heart. She didn't think so.

"It was really a special situation that day. That's why I took her to the hospital. Ollie, please believe me." His tone was humble as he talked.

She finally looked up into his eyes.

"Believe you? How am I supposed to believe you? I was pregnant and was changing my clothes by myself. It was crowded in the supermarket that day. You are a man yourself, and someone ran into you. Wha if someone ran into me? If that had happened, who would sendto the hospital?" "You said you were fine after my explanation that day. Why are you reacting differently when it comes to Vera..." "Yes, you are right. It was indeed in the past. You may help anyone you wish but Vera. I am just that unreasonable. I understand that she is someone you care about. That's why you would abandonto help her. That is something I should have known long ago. You are right, I shouldn't be so mad." She laughed at herself as she said and continued, "To be fair, I took it upon myself. I chose to be in a relationship with you even though I knew she was the one you like. I knew she could never be replaced. I'm tired now and I don't want to try anymore, okay?" The more she said, even she herself felt that she was being unreasonable and malicious. It was supposed to be a noble thing to help people who were in need. However, she couldn't help herself from the burning jealousy she felt so strongly towards Vera, just because of Sam's feelings towards her.

She held a special place in Sam's heart that could never be replaced by her.

"All right, I'm tired now. Since we're done talking, I'm going to sleep." Then, Olivia walked away from him with the child still in her arms. However, he wrapped his arms around her waist immediately with a tighter grip, refusing to let go.

"Don't go. We aren't finished talking." He stared at her seriously. "You can't go before we resolve this." "Sam!" She exclaimed his nangrily and his heart ached from her raised voice. Then, he said, "I don't care. You may scoldand be angry withsince you are leaving anyway. I am just going to do what I want be thick-skinned and stick to you." With that, he moved forward and held her tighter.

She was still holding the baby in her arms and was frightened by his advancing moves. She shouted immediately, "Can you be gentler? What if the child got hurt?" It suddenly dawned on him and he took a few steps back immediately as she shouted at him. "I am sorry. I didn't do it on purpose." She glared at him, and then looked down to check on the child worriedly. He still had a peaceful expression, and his gaze never left her.

"The child likes you very much, and he's still so young. Can you really bring yourself to leave him?" Sam noticed the way she looked at him so attentively and decided to use him to tug at her heartstrings.

"Look, he stopped crying the moment you held him. I am sure he wouldn't be able to sleep peacefully if you leave." "Stop talking." Olivia interrupted him. Her breath quickened as she spoke, "Don't try to involve the child in our discussion. I'll take him withif you keep going on with this." His eyes darkened. "Are you sure?" She did not answer him, but thought to herself, "Why does it matter how I feel? You still care about Vera. I don't want to be the desperate woman in a one-sided relationship." "Let go." "No." He hugged her tightly and refused to let go at all. She got annoyed. "Are you going to letgo?" She looked furious. He didn't want to provoke her further and slowly loosened his grip under her gaze.

Olivia took the child and went back to her room, leaving Sam alone in confusion and pain.

It seemed like she didn't listen to a word he had said.

What should he do? Had she made up her mind in leaving him? How was he going to continue living after she leaves? He wasn't aware how much thad passed as he stood alone in the room. Emma walked in and got angry when she noticed him standing still in the room in a daze. "You brat! I told you to find a way to resolve this. Did you not manage to do it at all?" His gaze drooped and he looked discouraged.

"What is going to happen to you in the future if she really leaves?"

Sam suddenly looked up and thought, "That's true. What am I going to do it she really decides to leave me?" He was used to having her around. He recalled the twith a smile in the dead of winter, and placed her cold feet on him without a warning when he turned around and shouted, "Sam, help warmup. I'm going to die from the cold." when she called his nasHe thought of a habit she had when they watched TV. She would suddenly crook her fingers at him when she saw a scene she liked and wrapped her arms around his neck when he walked over. She would rub his ears and watch them turn red.

He was getting used to her warm laughter while she was cuddled up in his arms. He thought about utherm coquetry, her commands; her adorable actions, and everything else they had been through together. As he thought about their past, he realized many of the memorable experiences involved her. "You're right. I can't live without her." Sam smiled wryly. "However, how can I stop her if she had made up her mind?" "There are many ways. Regardless, just hold on to her and never let her go."

Emma said earnestly, "Why don't you take a break from work and stay at hto accompany her? She m wouldn't be able to leave if you just be with her everyday, and follow her wherever she goes." Sam thought what Emma said was quite true. He nodded in agreement. Not long after, Olivia noticed that Sam had stopped going to work. He began to stay at heveryday and would go to her room to accompany her from tto time.

However, she pretended to be sleeping most of the twhen he cto visit her. She'd turned her back on him whenever he cin.

He took Emma's advice and tried to spend twith Olivia everyday. He waited at her side patiently and shamelessly try to talk to her even when she ignored him everytime. Eventually, Olivia could no longer stand him.

"Are you going to guardforever and never work anymore?" He laughed, "What's the point of working if you are no longer by my side?" X
