The Ceo’s proposal

-Don’t be scared, this blood is not mine and it’s not Aria’s either, well, she was wounded, but it was in her arm. -There was a fight to capture the girl.

-What girl?

Eros’ mother stayed with him while I accompanied Apollo to see how they interrogated the girl who accepted someone’s bribe to drug Eros while he was in the establishment.

My mother stayed with Isabel and took her home, the agents did the interrogation but she would not say anything other than she would not talk without her lawyer present, it was the only thing she kept repeating starting to annoy the agents. In the end she said nothing.

-You must be Mrs. Ainsworth, wife of Eros Ainsworth. -We are sorry for what happened to your husband, but don’t worry, he will talk sooner or later.

-I hope so.

-I have a question for you. -Why weren’t you with your husband that night?

-Are you interrogating me? -I raise an eyebrow in surprise- -It can’t be….

-It’s not personal, but you have to understand that someone as important as your husband is, even your wife may want something….

-Well, officer. -I try to control myself -Like every marriage he and I had a little couple quarrel because he swore to me at the altar that there would be no secrets in this relationship so, I made him the law of ice, so I avoided crossing paths with him at this time, plus our daughter was diagnosed with pneumonia. Do you think I could be with him after everything I told him.

-I guess not.

Apollo shows up after being questioned as well and a little upset I left the building with my brother-in-law, and when we were about to get into Apollo’s car the interrogating officer stops me asking me where I was going and when I told him I was going to see Eros he said he was going with us.

Apollo watches them in the rear view mirror, the car follows us very closely making it uncomfortable, my brother in law mumbles annoyed that he hated the leftovers but I told him that they are probably following us because maybe they think we have some relationship beyond that of a brother in law and brother in law.

-That’s stupid. I couldn’t notice you. -I look at him out of the corner of my eye. -No offense of course, you’re beautiful, but you’re my brother’s wife and I would never do anything like that to him.

-Neither would I, but it’s normal for them to suspect everyone to find out who paid that girl.

When we arrived at the hospital, we entered and went up to the elevator to go to floor 3 where Eros’ room was, when I saw him asleep, his mother hugs Apollo when she sees him, I smile when I see him while I approach him I kiss his forehead.

-Waking up with a kiss is all I wish for. -You took a long time. How did it go?

Ero, seeing the agents, murmurs to me the question of what they were doing here but I had no idea about that either and maybe it’s because they want to remind him of what happened during the night. He settles me next to him while I feel the eyes of the agents are on me, especially on agent Connor who interrogated me, but something I have learned from this family is that no member lowers his head or looks away from anyone, so I stared at him until he looked away making me bark a smile.

-I thought they were still angry.

-Officer, what a woman wants from her partner is a sincere apology, and he gave it to me. There would be no reason why I should be angry with my husband. Besides. He and our daughter mean everything to me.

-And you are for me.

-All right. -Said the woman accompanying the agent, “Mr. Ainsworth, do you remember what happened three nights ago?

Eros replies that he has no idea what happened and that his mind is blank, he asks if he has any suspicions of anyone close to him wanting to harm him but the responsible that no since we are all close, except for his uncle, his father’s brother.

Agent Connor asks him about my relationship with his brother making me laugh because I’m sure he thinks I have something to do with it.

-So far, normal I hope since you just met.

-Agent, if you want to know if I’m sleeping with my brother-in-law, just say so. I hate it when someone gives the matter so much thought.

-Madam…

-What, my wife with my brother? -Eros laughs. “Officer, one thing I’m sure of is that my wife would never be unfaithful to me, much less with my brother.

-How can you be sure of that?

-I know her well enough to know if she’s cheating on me or not, besides, we’ve been through a lot and I know she loves me as much as I love her. So I don’t want you to think my wife is a suspect because I’m going to think you’re just a bunch of useless people who want to get this over with as quickly as possible.

We were all taken aback by the way he spoke to the officers. It was as if for a moment, the Eros from before had returned, the officers were left with nothing to say and said they would find out who was responsible for what happened and that they were sorry to have bothered him.

It had gotten dark and the doctor said we could take him home the next day so I had to go home to get him some clothes, my brother in law wasn’t there either as he took his sister home, her husband was dying of anguish when he heard what happened to his wife

-Mrs. Ainsworth.

-Oh my goodness. -I almost had a heart attack when I heard the officer behind me. I didn’t see him when I left the hospital. -God, he wants to kill me with a heart attack!Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

-I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you. I just wanted to apologize for what happened this afternoon.

-You’re not the first one who thinks I’m with him for his money.

-I guess you make a difference that not everyone is with someone like him for money. -Where are you going?.

-I’m going to get some clothes for Eros, he’s being discharged tomorrow.

-Can I take her?
