Mr. Hephephobias

CHAPTER 172 - She's my Woman

Rayn takes Lucia to one of the luxury apartment buildings in the city center. Precisely the Penthouse Apartment unit which is a luxury residence is on the top floor of the apartment building. Lucia herself never knew or thought that Rayn would bring herself there.

Lusia looks notjup at a residence that not only has luxury but also has private facilities including gymnasium, swimming pool, terrace and even private elevator. A dwelling that not even a Lucian could dream of. For him who has a family background that is at the point of lack, being able to live in a place that he lives with his mother in the fishing village is already more than his gratitude.

Among the luxuries in front of him, Lucia's eyes were then fixed on the small table in the corner. There are two photo frames. Photos of two boys embracing each other posing towards the camera. Right next to it is a photo of one of the children, a picture taken from the back corner of a small child who looks serious painting.

Lucia grabbed a picture of the child painting. Portrait of a person scratching a brush that has been moistened with color paint on the canvas on the easel.

The boy was painting a lotus flower. Although basic yet it is an amazing work for a child of his age.

Jemari Lusia felt the picture frame in her hand as if washed away by the figure of the child in the photo. "Isn't this you?" ask Lucia.

"At that time, he was your future husband" Rayn said.

Lucia suddenly looked at Rayn as if she was unraveling a smile. "You're right, if I knew this child would be my husband, I shouldn't have to worry about waiting for the presence of someone who would hold my hand" Lucia replied.

Lucia looked around again, seeing that the photo was there, it seemed like Rayn was not just renting the Penthouse unit. "Seeing this picture is here already, have you lived here for a long time or have you lived here?" ask Lucia.

Rayn nodded, she told Lucia's guess that she used to live here. Not only that, the Penthouse unit they were currently in was his. "This is where I lived the first time I came back to this country, not exactly back but came to this country" Rayn replied.

Lucia is stunned to learn that the luxury Penthouse unit belongs to Rayn. He really never knew if it turned out Rayn had another place to live besides Villa where they were staying. He only realized, if the invitation Lotus at that time should also use this address.

Rayn said the Penthouse was bought by her father for her stay. But Rayn hated the place. Rayn felt that every time she stood in front of the glass and stared, it made her feel like a poor child locked up in a luxurious castle.

No one lived with him because Rayn was afraid of everyone who came even though they were chefs or officers who would clean the apartment. Only Mickey is the only person he can accept but still can not touch it. Mickey, who also came with Rayn from Canada, lives in the Suit Unit on the lower floor.

"I hate this place so much, this high place makes me feel like I'm in prison. Somehow suddenly Mickey found the Villa for me. I liked the place, so he showed it to my dad and said we wanted to stay there. I've been leaving this place ever since."

"And now I have you by my side. I wish this place would truly be home for me with you. I won't force you, you decide and I'll follow your decision." Rayn said.

Rayn asks Lucia not to worry, because in the wardrobe that is in one room, all clothes, shoes, bags, makeup, perfume, watches and others, and so on, it's all there. Lucia checked it out and Rayn was right, everything was right there and it was new. The cabinets are really full of luxury clothes with famous brands.

"You really don't keep other women here, do you?" canda Lucia frowned while showing some neatly arranged women and men's underwear in her place.

"Aaa, don't you like it? If I had that woman here. He was there" Rayn said, pointing to the room.

Lucia went to the room, she was surprised to see something inside. Lucia turned her head towards Rayn who was leaning against the glass staircase with her arms crossed. "You.." said Lucia smiling should mix happily.

Inside the spacious and luxurious room hung their wedding picture frames in a large size. Seeing Lucia's expression, Rayn walked up to him. Lucia dodged stepping into the main hall as Rayn's steps began to get closer. Lucia stood staring at the beautiful view from behind the glass wall.

"Looks like you love that woman so much" Lusia's seductive look turned towards Rayn.

"I not only love him, but he's everything to me" Rayn said as she walked closer to Lucia.

"She was the woman who gave me a breath when I felt like I was suffocating" Rayn said, taking it step-by-step.

"She's the woman who gave me light in my dark world" Rayn said in a close step.

Rayn is standing right in front of Lucia. "She, she's the woman who saved me when I was on the edge of a cliff. She clasped my hand with her words which made me think she was a stupid woman back then. She's the woman who made me fall for her gaze, her gaze was like this" Rayn said, increasingly fixedly staring at the two beads of Lucia's eyes who were also staring at her.

"She was my only woman. She is you, my wife" Rayn said, clutching Lucia's cheeks with her warm hands. Rayn kisses the ruum of Lucia's lips with a touch of her lips that feels sweet.
