Madam No Man

CHAPTER 124

While in the ambulance, Ivander kept wiping the top of his head. The man looked so worried about her. All the treatment of the man was really similar as he had once wanted when he was still the wife of the man.

"Van," called Sherina who made the man's agitated gaze, turned towards her and looked at her with a meaningful gaze.

"What's wrong? Do you need anything? Just tell me," said Ivander, bowing his head.

Sherina was silent for a moment, before looking at her hand which was in the man's grasp. He shook his head weakly, and looked at his hand, which looked so thin and dry. Sherina also felt that a lot of changes were happening to her body.

"I was in a coma?" Sherina tried to catch her breath so heavily, when she decided to ask Ivander everything, right now.

"Std... We'll talk about this when you're back, okay? You need to get well soon. The kids and mom are worried about you. So do me and Anne." Ivander shook his head in disapproval of the opening question Sherina gave him.

Sherina surrendered. He removed his hand from Ivander, and pressed it with his other hand. He stared in any direction, and hid his tears from the man.

"Where's Marvin? Does he know if I'm awake?" Sherina turned her head back to Ivander and looked at the man expectantly.

Ivander's body froze for a moment. She looked at Sherina with her own wry gaze, but as quickly as possible she controlled her facial expression. He cleared his throat for a moment, and thought if it was time for him to tell Sherina everything?

"Listen to me. Whatever happens to your husband, don't mind. Just focus on your healing, and your two daughters. Either way, Ailey has the right to choose who she'll stay with."

Ivander didn't explain everything to Sherina. He only gave advice so that the woman was not surprised when she knew everything.

Sherina doesn't understand what Ivander's saying. To be honest she was very curious about what the man was hiding from her, but she knew if Ivander was doing what was good for her.

"Don't worry. It's me and Anne. Until then, we will be by your side. Just relax." Ivander patted Sherina's shoulder which was not even bigger than his fist.

Sherina did not reply, only a small nod accompanying the woman's approval. The two fell silent for a while, there was absolutely no conversation between the two.

"Is there another woman?" Sherina asked suddenly which made Ivander choke on his own saliva.

The man straightened his body and looked at Sherina with a look of disbelief. The woman did not react, she just stared blankly at the ceiling of the ambulance she was riding in, with both hands overlapping.

"A... What are you saying?"

Sherina only smiled faintly, without looking at Ivander's currently flushed face. The confused man had to respond with what Sherina had just asked.

"I'm just guessing, calm down..." Sherina averted her eyes and patted Ivander's arm with the back of her hand.

Ivander is expressionless, at the moment. He looked at Sherina who was still smiling, with a heart that felt so painful.

The woman's body seemed to have been gnawed by time, which made her look like an undead. Four years of never being exposed to the sun, making his skin pale and thin.

"When you get well, make me an appointment. You must restore the old Sherina, and live a happier life. Don't make me and Anne sad" said Ivander, who did not deny Sherina's guess.

It was captured perfectly by Sherina. The woman laughed blandly with tears coming back. For some reason the pain was there, this time it appeared twice as intense.

"definitely. Just trust me. This Sherina hasn't changed" Sherina assured Ivander.

Ivander simply nodded and again clasped Sherina's skinny hand. The two strengthened each other until they finally arrived at the hospital.

"I'm going home first. It's okay, isn't it?" Ivander arranged the dirty dishes at the table near Sherina's door, and turned his head to the woman he had just bribed for the first time.

Sherina nodded, and smiled warmly. "Thank you for helping me. Go home and rest. Tell me if you're gonna be here. And yes, don't forget to bring the kids."

Ivander went back to Sherina and stroked the top of her head. "If there's anything at all, call me or Anne immediately."

****

Upon arriving at Ivander's house, she is greeted by Anne who has just finished bathing her four children. He walked up to Ivander who looked very tired, and picked up the jacket given by the man.

"Why is it so late afternoon? Is there a new problem?" anne asked, raising her head, to look at the man.

Ivander lowered his head. She smiled thinly and hugged Anne's body which did not even reach her shoulder. He closed his eyes and inhaled the scent of the body of the woman, who would soon become his wife. He sought the calm he had been seeking since.

"Basar baj*ngan man! His wife had even been fighting death for years, but he acted as if he had been abandoned by his wife! Absolutely insane!" anne said in a fiery voice that made Ivander nod his head.

"Calm down, we'll be by Sherina's side until then. And yes, even though we haven't talked about this directly to Marvin. But I'm pretty sure that everything we're thinking about, actually happened!"

Anne frowned, and looked at the man confused.

"Just as I closed the gate, suddenly his car came into the yard. And yes, the woman went with him!" Ivander, who has been talking about this for years, is starting to change. He is like a complex of mothers who support all the assumptions of his future wife.

"really!? The insolent are both of them! Why not go to the hospital to see his wife? And why don't you just go find out where her son is!?"

Ivander exhaled and looked at Anne, who always seemed fiery when they talked about Marvin's behavior.

"Don't open the door if he's here! Just let him go looking for where his son is!" Anne walked away from Ivander and went upstairs, where their children's room was.

"That's also if they come. Lf it doesn't? As usual!"

Ivander stared at the mansion opposite his house, and sighed heavily. He had not expected that the life of his ex-wife would be this complicated.

"I'm afraid you'll regret it, Vin." Lirih Ivander with feelings she couldn't define.

Across the street, a man who had just removed the tie from the collar of his shirt received the size of a glass filled with warm tea his secretary gave him.

"You must be tired. Rest, I'll go home first." Not yet had the man drank his tea, suddenly the woman was about to say goodbye to him.

"Let's go for a while. You must also be tired," prevent him from directly putting his cup on the table.

The man stood up and followed the woman. "No need, I still have business."

As if he had no other reason to hold the woman away, he simply nodded his head and stuffed one of his hands into his pants pocket.

"Call me if anything happens to you. Careful." The woman smiled sweetly and nodded her head.

Before the woman turned around and left him, the man immediately spoke. "Oh yes, Al. Thanks for today."

The woman's smile grew bigger. He rushed home after finishing his business.

After the departure of his secretary, the man immediately walked to the stairs and passed by the maid who took care of everything.

"Mom, where are the kids? Why so quiet?" asked the man politely, which made the old lady before him smile faintly.

"At his uncle's house, Den. Already since this afternoon, probably going to stay there. Tomorrow they have a day off" replied the woman whom the man had entrusted to take care of the house and her daughter.

"A holiday? Isn't it Wednesday tomorrow?" he asked her an unpretentious confusion from the woman in front of him.

This master was truly too busy with his own world. She rarely even gets together with her children. Never mind getting together, he does not even mind if his children rarely feel at home when at home.

"I've been giving you my notice on Aden's desk for two days now." The man was a little surprised, and went straight into his room.

Arriving there, he sat on the bed and stared at his reflection in the mirror opposite him. Everything is different now.

He laid his body on the bed, and covered his face with his arm. He let out a long breath, and closed his eyes.

Not felt, the man actually fell asleep without the intention to sleep for real.

It turns out that love can not always be maintained, even though one of the cast is not there. I don't know if he can take care of her or not.

"Marvin!" Suddenly both of the man's eyes opened, as he vaguely felt that someone was calling him, not long after he was closed.

The man's breath was hunting, with his eyes still wide open. He started to get up from his position, and looked at himself in the mirror.

"Alissa."
