"I know that it's improper to show up again here, Mr Demagiba, Miss Anastasia. But even I am the legal wife of Maximo, I still feel embarrassed why you were admitted in this hospital. Again, although no one wants to have in this situation, I will say sorry to everyone," a lady said as she entered the facility.
At that statement of the person that they didn't expect to see or show up at the hospital, no one spoke for a few minutes. But they also didn't want to be rude so Anastasia herself took the initiatively.
"Attorney, after all, you don't have anything to apologize for because I'm the one who committed the crime. Even if it's said that I'm also a victim. For forgiving me and letting me live without worrying is a big thing. And I hope you're the same, Attorney , forget people like me and don't be guilty of what happened."
It hurts. Nothing hurts her as much as losing a loved one again. In addition of the fetus that she have been lost. But she needs to humble herself even more and she is the one who has sinned even if the world is turned upside down.
"My daughter is right, attorney. Don't think that you are to blame for what happened to him. The important thing is that you both forgive each other. Because nothing will happen or result if you stay locked up in the past," Mr Demagiba also said.
"Thank you for saying that. I felt relieved for now. Don't worry because in few days, me and my family will travel back to London. Stay safe always," she answered back.
Maximo's wife stayed at the hospital for a few minutes. They talked until she said goodbye.
FEW DAYS LATER
"What are you doing here?" she asked in disbelief.
She couldn't believe that she can see him again. But cruel he is to show in front of her. She wants to forget him completely but how can she do that if he keeps on appearing.
"Can we talk? Don't worry because I'll be leaving with my wife tomorrow. I just want to say goodbye to you personally."
"Okay, fine. Since that you're done in saying goodbye you can go now. Stop! Don't try to get closer to me or else I'll scream out loud!"
She will not allow him to touch her once more. They have done enough way back then. And it's enough for her to refuse at the moment.
"Okay, okay. I'm sorry for everything that I've done, Anastasia. That's the reason why I came here. To say sorry to you---"
Anastasia didn't let him finish what he wanted to say. If she will show that she's still affected, maybe she will breakdown once again and beg him not to leave.
"You are forgiven, Maximo. It's not your fault after all. But since that we need to go on with our lives, go ahead with yours and I'll do the same. And since that I forgave you, go back now with your family. You don't have any reason to stay longer here," she said coldly.
She doesn't want to make another mistake. That is why she turned around and go back inside their house right after she said those words. God will forgive her in committing adultery and she know that He will do the same for her rudeness just right now.
"YOU did the right thing, Hija. Be strong if you want to move forward from where you are now. Maybe not right now but I'm sure you can do it."
A voice greeted her upon her entrance. It was just the two of them at home, so she didn't face her anymore. Instead she went straight to a chair and sit.
"Yes, Dad. Don't worry because I can handle it. It's hard to finish talking, but as long as I can, I won't accept any suitors. Just like you always said, I'm going to fucos in life."
It is better to tell the truth than to continue to deceive yourself. And another thing is that she has nothing to hide from her father. Ever since her downfalls in her first love until now, he is the one who supported and accepted her.
TAIPEI TAIWAN
"Madam president! I have a bad news!"
One of Mrs Chen's bodyguard said in hurt. Even he is out of breath. It seems that he was chased by a wild animal.
"Will you calm yourself first before showing up in front of me?" she said very confusing tone.
It's true that she was surprised because of what's her bodyguard did. But she's more worried about him or what's the reason why did he just appeared.
"Your son was rushed in the hospital, Madam President!"
"WHAT?! What are you talking about?"
"That's the truth, Madam President. I've just got the news from the hospital where did the police department sent him."
"You must be k-kidding! I left him at home. Even he'll be traveling today for business meeting. How come that he is in the hospital?!"
How come that she will not panicked if her bodyguard is telling her that her son was in the hospital. She felt sorry when he just appeared and chasing his breath but now that he said what's happening, she's shivering out disbelief.
But then, one of the staffs of the company knocked on the door.
"COME in," she said.
"Mrs President, I-i don't know how to start this but---"
"But what?! What's happening with you people? Can't you do it in proper ways?"
She immediately interrupted her with a high pitch voice. She's totally panicking.
"Mrs President, Master Chi-Wei was in the hospital. I was the one who answered the call of the police department before I came here in your office."
"NO! Tell me that both of you are lying! Tell me! My child is still---"
But she wasn't able to finish what she's saying. Because another person who knows and received the news about her son's appeared. And the worst is he proved what her bodyguard and staff said.
