Chapter 246: Who Would You End This With?
Arissa snuggled more into Nicklaus’s arms like a cat seeking comfort from its master. Nicklaus protectively wrapped her in with sweet rubs on her arm.
"How do you feel?" he questioned, staring down at her bandaged head. He wants to know if he should call Mr. Williams or not.
"I’m okay. I meant I wasn’t but I am now you’re here with me," she answered honestly.
Nicklaus chuckled. Her reply sounded so cute and completely cut off every layers of crust he had, "I go nowhere, I’d always be here with you and for you alone," he promised her with his words holding deeper meaning which includes the divorce.
Arissa raised her face and stared into his eyes. She was tempered to ask if he would leave when the time for the divorce comes.
"You want to say something," he noticed, and Arissa bit her tongue from embarrassment. She was an open book to him, the way he reads her without stress was beautiful and at the same time annoying considering the fact he hardly shows all of his emotions.
Even right now, she can’t entirely tell what he was thinking or how he felt but he might be able to tell hers without pondering much. Well, she loves this and anymore thing he would do with her.
She nodded to his words. "I want to know_"
A knock came on the door, distracting the couple on the bed. Nicklaus guessed it would be Rue and since he doesn’t use keys on his door, he had to get the door himself.
When he opened the door, Rue passed the tray over to him with a slight bow, "I hope she’s okay," there was concern in her voice.
"She’s good," and that was when Nicklaus saw the cat by Rue’s leg side. "Why are you with Blu. isn’t she supposed to be asleep?"
