Chapter 29
Thunder’s POV
Three days have passed since he and his wife, Jewel, crossed paths again. He knew in himself that he is so stupid during the times they were still together under the same roof.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
In the four years that have passed there has not been a day that he has not blamed himself for why he finally lost his wife. He knew what he had done that night was wrong, but can you blame him? His emotions just carried him to the extreme anger he felt because of what he found out that day.
A week before that day happened, he thought that he would talk to his wife and try to fix their marriage, because he knew it would not be difficult for them to start as husband and wife. He is also ready to accept that his bachelor life has indeed already happened and he needs to face the reality that he is married.
He made a surprise for his wife, he wanted to make amends for the sins he had committed especially for hurting her. He was about to leave his office to pick up his wife when he suddenly received a call from his ex-fling. The woman asked for a favor if they could talk and after that she wouldn’t make any more trouble or show up to Thunder. And because of what the woman said, Thunder decided to meet with her to end what they had.
They met at a coffee shop, he admits that the woman is beautiful and sexy but he ignores it because all he wants now is to talk to the woman and go home to his wife. When he sat down, there was food and drink ready on the table that the woman seemed to have ordered.
“Say what you want to say. I need to go home,” Thunder’s said in serious tone
The girl smiled sweetly as if she wanted to seduce him. “Like what I said before, I just invited you to talk, but before that let me give this to you.” The girl said and handed the photos to Thunder.
He got confused that time so he accepted it and looked inside of it. When he saw who was in the picture his mouth watered.
Her wife is in the photo with his best friend Cain who is hugging each other, there is also a photo of them kissing. He felt disgusted with his wife because of the photo, he got so angry, he felt like his wife and best friend had betrayed him.
Before he left, Alexa stopped him and gave him the juice, he just drank it quickly and left. He didn’t even bother to say goodbye to his companion because all he wanted was to go home.
As he made his way home he felt something strange in his body. He felt a different body heat or sensation but he endured it because he had not yet come home. When he got to their house his body heat intensified so much that when he saw his wife he did the worst thing.
He deeply regrets what he did to Jewel especially raping her.
And when he woke up the next morning he could no longer see his wife, he went around their whole house but he could not see her. He finally went to her room but he did not see her even Jewel’s shadow, and also her belongings were gone.
He hardly knew what to do in those days. He only wanted one thing and that was for them to get married and live happily. But the opposite happened, because of the pictures he saw he made a big mistake when he raped his own wife.
He didn’t look for her wife even if he could do it because he didn’t know how to face Jewel. A week later he also decided to talk to his parents to tell them what had happened, but he was just at the door of their house when he was greeted by his father’s punch. On the same day, Jewel’s parents were at their house because they were worried about the loss of their daughter for how many days already, they also said that they tried to call her several times but no one answered and when they went to Thunder’s house they also never met Jewel or even him.
Thunder had the opportunity that day to talk to his parents and to his wife’s parents, he admitted everything that happened between them as a couple especially the last thing he did to his wife. Both parents were very angry because of what happened and what he did, they are very disappointed in him.
There was also a dispute between the two families for almost a few months, but Thunder did not let that happen, he did not want the two families relationship to be ruined because of the sin that he committed. He promised to them that he will do everything to make Jewel forgive him. Eventually their parents agreed as well, they let Thunder make the way and fix the tire he made.
But even though the problem between their families was solved and went well, his own mother was still very disappointed in him and also he felt that his father was distancing himself to him still. He doesn’t blame his parents for treating him that way because he knows and understands that they consider Jewel as their daughter also.
He also found out the fact that when he met his ex fling, Alexa had put a drug in his drink, it is a drug that increases a person’s need that when you drink it you will go wild without knowing it, you can just feel so much heat in the body like you wanted to release something, so it’s too late when he realized that Alexa had given him that drug that’s why he didn’t control himself that time when he did the wrong thing to Jewel.
A month after Jewel left she received annulment papers from his lawyer, but he just threw it away because he had no intention of signing it. He will not allow to lose his as the husband of Jewel.
In the days that have passed his life has almost become miserable, he is at the bar everyday, he hardly even goes to the company, every night he remembers what he did to his wife, her cries and pleading. For him it was a nightmare. He also knew he was wrong that he didn’t control his emotion and believed Alexa so all that stuff happened.
He had no news of his wife for almost five years because no matter how hard he tried to hire a good investigator, it did not report anything to him or give any news to him about his wife. He thought that something was preventing him from knowing where his wife was or what was going on with his wife. He just didn’t know who they were, whether it was his family or Jewel’s family, he didn’t hesitate to hire a private investigator again because he knew he would just waste it because someone would block it.
In the years without her wife he then realized how important she is to him. He remembers how it took care and cared for him even though it retaliated with pain and cruelty. He knows that it is not difficult to love Jewel, he knew his wife when she was young because his parents and Jewel’s parents are closest friends and because of that he and Jewel became friends also. He just treated her differently when their arranged marriage happened, he thought it was his wife’s plan everything, he knew that Jewel had liked him for a long time. He had in mind that because of his wife he would be tied to a marriage and would lose his life being a bachelor.
After being miserable, he just woke up saying that he wanted to fix his life, because his father deported him to their hacienda and he stayed there for a year. His father wanted him to fix himself first so that when he and Jewel met again he would have strength to face her.
After five years he found out from his friend Cain that Jewel was going back to the Philippines, he was very happy when he heard that news. He also found out from his friend that Jewel had built a restaurant in Canada and it was famous there, and because of that he came up with a plan. Even if some people will laugh or say that this plan was very childish he will do it. He talked to Celine, Dark’s cousin, about his plan to inquire at the restaurant and that they want a restaurant to cater for their wedding. At first, Celine didn’t want to, but after two days she agreed about it.
One night when he passed by a famous bar he did not expect to see Jewel there, he got pissed when he see her dancing in the middle of the dance floor while the men were celebrating, so he didn’t wasted a single minute and he immediately approached her and pulled her out, at first she was still angry with him she shouted at him but because the girl was drunk Thunder was able to take her in his condo unit.
But the next day while Jewel was still asleep, he decided to take a bath first. He wanted to talk to the girl when she woke up, but it seems that his decision was wrong when he came out of the bathroom, Jewel was no longer in bed. He hurried out of the room thinking that maybe Jewel was in the kitchen or sofa but he didn’t see Jewel. He felt disappointed but he did nothing, because he knew they would still meet.
‘I will do everything to make you fall in love to me again Jewel.’ – he whisper
