The Substitute Husband's Love

The Substitute Husband's Love
Chapter 38



A few days later...


After coming home from her friend's show a few days ago, Elle looks different. He is not as usual who will always smile even though his heart is injured because the lover is still lying on the hospital gurney.


Nathan is confused, he doesn't know what happened to the girl. Could it be all because of the words of his friends a few days ago? Nathan always asked the girl, but the girl always shook her head and replied, she's fine. Nathan could only sigh, he did not know what was in the pretty girl's mind. Clearly, this girl must have been thinking of something that made this girl change so drastically.


Elle stared at her breakfast lazily, she had no intention of eating it at all, but this morning breakfast was her favorite, but why was she so lazy to eat it. Nathan who always noticed Elle was seen sighing, Elle change in these few days, of course make Nathan not calm and feel very worried.


"What's really going on, Elle? Why is it that since we got home from your friend's show, you've become like this? Is it because of your friend's words?" Nathan asked gently, his eyes never coming off of Elle's pretty face, watching her deeply, wanting to see how the beautiful girl reacted.


"Nothing happened, and I'm fine." Elle said coldly, she did not look at Nathan at all, the interlocutor.


"Elle..... "


"I don't want breakfast! You have breakfast by yourself." Elle interrupts quickly, and sets out to leave Nathan alone. However, his intention came to a halt when Nathan's soft voice rang out in his ears.


"Elle.... " Nathan's voice choked when his cell phone rang. Then, Nathan immediately grabbed his phone, and the name of Alexa doctor was plastered on the screen of his phone. Nathan was silent for a moment, then he glanced at Elle who was still silent a thousand languages. Nathan sighed, and he spoke softly again. "I'll pick up the call first" and after that, Nathan stood up, walking away from the dining room.


Elle turned her head, she stared at Nathan's departure wryly. "You're right, Nathan. My friend reminded me of Rendra. I miss him so much, I want to see his smile, his laugh, everything in him, I want to see everything, Nathan. And you, add my longing to her, Nathan. What do I do, Nathan? Do I have to cry at all times? Do I have to endure this pain alone? But, until when?" Inner Elle with tears that began to come out from the corner of her beautiful eyes.


During this time Elle always held back and behaved normally when she saw Nathan, but deep down, Elle always felt pain when she saw Nathan. Nathan always reminds himself of Rendra, especially the attitude of Nathan lately is very sweet and gentle, of course very similar to the attitude of Rendra first. And it makes Elle miss the figure of Rendra who until now is still lying in the hospital.


"Why don't you act like you used to, Nathan? Why should you be gentle with me? Don't you know, with you being so gentle like that, you're making me miss Rendra even more." Elle was still staring at Nathan's departure, her tears just kept falling down her beautiful face. In fact, the way Nathan walks looks exactly like Rendra.


"Love? I'm sure what you said the other day was just nonsense. You can't possibly fall in love with your own sister's lover, can you?" Elle wiped her tears, then she turned around, and moved her legs towards her room on the second floor.


Seriate.
