CHAPTER 30
“Then he confessed something to me. I was shocked. He told me about his true relationship with Mike. I had a hard time accepting it at first but eventually, I accepted him as well. He is my only brother and I should be the first person to understand and accept him no matter who he is. So, we looked for you everywhere together. I went to Olongapo myself to search. When I still couldn’t find you, I hired an investigator to find you. I was restless and worried for so many months. I almost would like to pay a TV station to find you. I wanted to be by your side until you give birth to our child,” he said at length.
While listening intently to the man’s story, tears began to form in her eyes but she just let him finish first.
“Then one day the private investigator I’ve hired got me some good news. He was searching for your mother’s relatives. He gave me pictures of you with a huge belly. I immediately flew here. Please, don’t do that again or I will go completely insane,” he said passionately as the kisses suppressed her hand, the one he was holding.
“Why did you look for me?” She asked. She wanted to confirm if the feeling she saw in his eyes was real.
He did not answer immediately but just stared at her.
“Why won’t I look for you when I’m sure we feel the same way?” He didn’t take his eyes away from her.
Her eyes were asking. He kissed her hand again.
“Red told me about your feelings for me. I wanted to shout and jump for joy but we were still looking for you and your mom so I was more worried than happy. We cant even contact both of you.”
They feel the same way?
That was the only thing that stuck in her brain. She still wanted to hear it right out of his mouth because maybe she just misunderstood.
He probably guessed what she was thinking because he smiled then looked at her seriously again.
“I love you, Sam. The first night I saw you, my heart immediately beats for you. I was thinking that maybe I was just attracted to your beauty and that longing would soon be gone once I claimed your body. I kept reminding myself that especially every time I see you I feel like my feelings for you are deepening. So, I said maybe when Faith comes back it will all go back to normal. I was really planning to propose to her again but I didn’t do it because you always entered my mind. You are the one I see walking in church while wearing a wedding dress towards me. When I learned that you were pregnant, I was really happy but more anger dominated me especially when Red offered you marriage. I was so jealous that I wanted to punch my brother in the face that same night,” he said laughing again.
“You love me?” She could no longer hold back the tears.
His smile faded while looking at her intently.
“I love you. I only feel mixed emotions when I’m with you. I thought I was only chasing your body but I want more of you. It’s not enough that you can only offer me your body. I want you to give me your heart too. And please, don’t torture me anymore because I was just stopping myself not to bring a priest here so we can get married right away. I don’t want you to leave me again.” He said in a very emotional tone.
She laughed at the man’s face even though she was still crying.
“I love you too, Clay. I was just embarrassed to admit it because I feel like I don’t deserve you. I was way out of your league. I was just a dancer, a sexy dancer,” she said sadly.
His face was formal.
“There is no other woman I want to dedicate my heart and life to but you. Don’t underestimate yourself just because we haven’t known each other in a decent way. I think of you wholeheartedly and you are not a dirty woman. More than anyone else, I am the one who knows that. I love you so much and you have no choice but to marry me.” He said without hesitation.Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
She sobbed at what the man said. He hugged her. She hugged his neck as well.
“I love you and thank you for giving me our babies. I don’t want anything else because my life is complete because of you and our twins,” Clayton whispered in her ear and kissed her on the cheek.
“How about Faith?” She remembered to ask.
“When I found out that you were pregnant, I talked to her. I told her I love you. I apologized because she might have hoped again that we would get back together. She was really mad. I just found out that she had returned to London last month,” he replied.
She didn’t tell him any more about the surprise visit from Faith and about all the things she said to her.
Instead, she hugged him.
“I love you too,” She said then she spontaneously kissed him on the lips.
He immediately responded with a warm kiss.
Clayton took them with him when he returned to Manila. Her mom was with them and they just gave their small business to her Aunt since they will be staying in Manila with Clayton.
Red was overjoyed to see his nephew and niece. Mike also returned to the country to talk to Clayton personally about his relationship with his brother.
Their wedding was quickly arranged.
Clayton had just finished kissing her after the wedding ceremony. When they turned around after the wedding vow, they saw those who attended their wedding.
She saw Red carrying one of the twins while the other one was carried by her mother. Her former boss Diva and his partner Jeremy were also smiling at them.
She turned to her husband, Clayton, and smiled sweetly at him.
“Thank you for everything. I’m so happy today.” She said softly with tears in her eyes.
He touched her cheek and looked at her face with all his heart.
“My happiness is complete when you came into my life, you and our children,” after saying that he brought his face closer to her again to kiss her.
Smiling, she looked up and closed her eyes to wait for her husband’s kiss.
She was more confident now about his feelings for her.
Her husband never fails to let her feel every day how much he values her as a woman, as a wife, and as a mother to their twins.
It helped her change the way she looked at herself because of Clayton’s love for her.
