Chapter 669 - 14.65
A week passed without anything special.
Gaius was discharged on the second day after being hospitalized because the doctor diagnosed him as completely healthy. However, he was still given vitamins that he had to consume daily.
Gaius also acted dumb in front of Clarke. He never asked about Gaia anymore. He hoped that Clarke would eventually come clean and tell him who this Gaia woman was.
But Clarke felt it was unnecessary. Because he didn’t do anything to her except for work. They were good colleague partners, but Clarke never thought of anything more.
He was still deeply in love with Gaius, and now his love doubled after Gaius almost lost his life due to a mysterious illness.
If he could tell the truth, he might be madly in love with his wife at this point. Because Gaius kept occupying his mind.
He wasn’t that good at uttering his feeling, so he showed it by giving gifts to Gaius and the kids. He often returned home with toys for Artemis or Hermes, and also something that Gaius liked, usually books or seeds of rare flowers that he could finally grow in his small garden.
He thought Gaius understood his love despite him never uttering it clearly.
But those were vastly different in Gaius’ head.
Clarke never mentioned that woman, and the fact that Clarke continuously gifted him and the kids only roused his suspicion even more.
Gaius thought that Clarke was trying to hide his guilt of cheating by gifting a lot for Gaius and the kids. This was done to alleviate the guilt because he didn’t love Gaius and the kids anymore.
