Loving Madeline

Madeline's POV

I feel like an idiot when my husband took me to the building near the grocery store, not so far from my house. My eyes widened when I see the helicopter before my eyes, and I realized I was such a fool for challenging my husband, but I can't deny I feel so happy inside since he came from his office to kiss me. And the moment we took off, I can't stop admiring the view from the top, and my heart is filled with happiness as I can feel my husband's hand squeezed my palm, and he never let it go until we reach the helipad of the Divenson building. 

Hunter removed his business coat from his frame, and he put it over my shoulders; and he takes my hand as we walk going to the elevator, and I can't stop myself from remembering the last time I was in his office. I was so angry and asking for a divorce, and I felt so glad Hunter didn't agree with me, or else I don't know how I am going to face my life without my husband. I can feel the electricity coming from my husband's touch, and I smiled at his secretaries as they greeted us, and I can tell they are now talking about us, but I don't care since I am Hunter's wife and I have all the right to be here.

The moment we get inside Hunter's office, he brought me to the couch, and I sat down and I read some newspapers. I can see my husband stealing glances at me, and I felt so thrilled to be in his office doing nothing while he was busy with his laptop. And I realized it would be nice to work in his office, and the idea that popped into my head made me feel excited since it would be so sweet to get inside his office every time I miss him during the day. I know it was a stupid idea, but it was also tempting. Working for Hunter would be a challenge, and I smiled as I browse my phone.

"Madeline!" Calixto exclaimed, and I laughed when I saw the expression on his face.

"Hello, Cal. How are you?" I asked, and it took him a while before he can get back to his senses

"Aren't you happy to see me, Cal?" I asked, and I heard my husband chuckled at my question, and I smiled when I remember Hunter asked me the same question when we were in my house a while ago.

"Of course, I felt so delighted to see you here, Madeline, and I think it would be best if you will always be around so your husband can work properly. It seems he was so lost when you left home, Maddie." He declared, and I suddenly felt guilty.

"Calixto, you are inside my office, and you should only discuss a work-related concern, and not my personal life," Hunter said. Still, I know he doesn't mean it since I am aware Calixto knew all about his secrets because he considered him as his best friend. It feels so funny that they are best friends when you try to look at their age gap, but it doesn't bother them, and I felt so glad my husband has Cal in his life because he needed someone like him, especially Clark Divenson has never been a good father to Hunter.

"I am so sorry to disturb you now, Mr. Divenson, but our client is waiting for you at the board room," Calixto said. Hunter got up quickly from his swivel chair, and he walked closer to me. And I hate that I still have this kind of reaction every time he is near me, I can feel the knots that twisted in my stomach the moment I felt his muscular hands on my waist, and he yanked me closer to him.

"I am sorry, Madeline, but I need to have this meeting right now. I promise to keep it as short and fast as possible because I don't want to leave you here." He softly said while he was staring into my eyes.

"Of course, don't worry, I won't walk away this time," I said, and his face lit up. I can feel the sparks that travel at my spine the moment he captured my lips, and I can't stop myself from moaning as I put my hands around my husband's neck, and I kissed him back eagerly, and we are kissing passionately, and we only stopped when we heard Calixto cleared his throat.

"I need to go now, Maddie," Hunter said, and he let go of my body, and I can feel my face is so red, and I didn't look at Cal because I felt embarrassed that I forgot he was standing inside my husband's office, and I thought I was moaning when I kissed my husband. I sat back on the couch and pretended to read the newspaper, and I heard Cal said his goodbyes, and I murmured bye without looking at him.

I release a deep sighed of relief after I heard the closing of the door, and I was laughing when I realized I have the newspaper upside down, and I just felt so glad they didn't see me, or else they will know I was only pretending to read. I stood up from my chair, and I walked closer to the window, and I opened the blinds, and I gasped when I look at the view below, and I realized Archois City is so busy at this hour as I watched the heavy traffic even if the cars looked so tiny from where I am standing.

I was lost in space, and I almost leaped when I heard the opening of the door. I thought Hunter made his meeting so brief, but when I looked around, I can't stop myself from smiling when I saw Lily walking inside Hunter's office, and her face lights up the moment she saw me standing near the window, and she quickly ran towards me.

"Oh, Madeline! I thought you were in your house; I didn't know you will be here, I miss you so much, and I felt so happy that I see you now." She said, and Lily hugged me, and she never let me go, and I realized how much I miss her. I stroked her hair, and I realized she is so tall now, and I can tell three years from now she will be taller than me since I can tell she is tall for her age. Well, Hunter is so tall and it is expected she would be taller than other girls her age.

"I missed you too, Lily." I said, and I took her hand and pulled her to the couch, and we sat beside each other, and then she looked at me for a long time before she speaks again.

"Are you going home to your house now? Do you know that we moved out from the Divenson mansion, and we are staying at your house as of the moment while we are still looking for a place to stay?" She asked me, and I nodded my head.

"Yeah, Cal told me everything. You don't need to look for a house, Lily; that house is so big and has so many guest rooms." I said.

"Well, tell that to Leticia Divenson. If you ask me, I want to stay with you and Hunter, but I don't want mom to be alone. She renovated her ancestral home on her maternal side. I know the Divenson mansion belongs to mom's father from generation, but since she married dad, it became the Divenson mansion after they got married. It was a beautiful house, Maddie, and I am sure you will love it after the renovation, and I can say it is more beautiful than the Divenson house." Lily said enthusiastically, and I can't stop myself from grinning.

"I am excited to see it, Lily." I said.

"Of course, you should be there on the day we move in, and I will ask you and Hunter to stay with us for a couple of days." She said, and I felt excited, and I don't know every time I am with Lily, I feel so happy.

"Maddie, " She softly called me.

"Yes, Lily?" I asked.

"Are you still in love with my brother?" She asked, and her question took me off guard, but I smiled at her while I nodded my head.

"Of course, I am still crazy in love with your brother, Lily. I left home, but it doesn't mean I stop loving him. I was hurt, and I thought he doesn't love me anymore." I replied, and she grinned.

"Hunter loves you so much, and he needs you." She said.

"I know, Lily." I replied.

"Please come home with us, Maddie. I miss playing board games with you." She said, and I laughed, and I remember when I first arrived in the Divenson mansion, and I felt so grateful for this girl because I know without her, I will not survive that time. We spent time playing chess and other board games, and then what amazed me is when Lily taught me how to draw and paint. She was young back then, but her works were terrific.

"Maddie, I need your answer right now." She said again, and I can't say no to Lily.

"Okay, but not tonight, I need to come home to my little house, but I promise I will go home to our house soon because I miss your brother so much." I replied, and her tears fall on her cheeks.

"Hey, don't cry, Lily." I added.

"I am just so happy, Madeline, you became my sister on the day you married my brother, and I don't want you to leave Hunter, and tonight we will be sleeping at your house." She declared.

"I will never leave Hunter, Lily, and of course, you are always welcome at my house, and my husband too." I said, and she smiled while she wiped her tears away, and I can't stop myself from feeling so thrilled knowing Hunter will be sleeping at my place tonight.
