The Wife I Never Met
Chapter 77

Once they were both settled in the car Liam ordered Larry to drive them to the hospital, he saw for himself that nothing had happened to Ciara during her fight with the Dube brothers but for his wife he needed to be sure.

” You never really told me the reason why you were in such a place in the first place, and for heaven sake why was your ex with you?”

Now thinking about how protective Ciara was over Dexter Liam’s jealousy crept in.

” No need to be jealous mylove, I noticed that man following before I got in to the coffee shop, I didn’t even interact with him. And even though I despise him, I just couldn’t let someone I know get killed for things they didn’t even do.”

Liam’s face turned even grimer, he knew that his wife was a kind hearted person and would have probably done the same or even more should he be in a similar situation. He pulled her in his arms again and stated with a serious voice.

” That does not mean that you should compromise your own safety, what if those men knew martial arts as well, you would have been doomed. Yes you don’t have to let him die and do nothing about it, but you can always call the police as soon as you see the injust. Promise me you won’t put yourself and my child in danger like that again. “

Upon hearing what Liam had to say, Ciara was more confused, more than she ever did.

” what do you mean your child, I’m not even pregnant. Why would you say that? “

” It’s a matter of time sweetheart, if you are not pregnant now then you will have to work harder. But I need you to promise me you’ll do your best to remove yourself from any possible danger. “

” fine fine, darling I promise. Happy? “

Liam let out a mischievous smiled as he grabbed on Ciara butt.

” yeah, certainly! “

Ciara’s face immediately turned scarlet red, worse she did not have the time to compose herself as the car had already pulled over at the hospital parking.

They both got out of the car with Liam as serious as ever, no longer acting like shameless man he was a moment ago. Right now he was the Mr Jones that everyone both feared and respected.

They skipped the line and all the formalities and walked straight to the Jones family doctor who was already notified and waiting for their arrival.

The doctor did some general checks on Ciara and found that apart from the swelling on her face and shoulder and a few scratch there was nothing to worry about. He then insisted that since they were already at the hospital it would be best for Ciara to just do her annual checkup where they took some b***d samples and sent them to the laboratory. While Liam and Ciara were on their way to the waiting room they bumped in to Ciara’s parents who didn’t look well at all. Ciara was shocked to see them at the hospital and what made it worse was they both looked like they just lost a loved one to death. She paused in her tracks and looked at them with simpathy, she wanted to say something but was also scared of offending her father whom she had not seen for many years.

Ciara’s mom though could not hold herself any longer as she threw herself at Ciara with tears running down her face.

” Owh dear it’s your grandfather, he’s not feeling well. You know, ever since granny passed away he hadn’t been himself as they were very close. This morning we had breakfast as always, and after that he went to the back garden to bask in the sun.” she then took a deep breath not knowing how to tell her daughter the news.

Ciara patted her mother on the shoulder gently encouraging her to talk.

” You can tell me mom, what happened to Pa?. “

” Well a few hours after that, 2 hours to be precise we had a friendly visitor who kept him company, but because they had to work, the visitor left early. I don’t know Ciara maybe your grandfather didn’t want him to leave because not long after that he collapsed and fainted on the floor, he is currently in a comma and the doctors can’t replace anything wrong with him.”

When they heard this both Liam and Ciara looked at each other in disbelief and shock in their eyes, they instantly knew who the visitor was but the just couldn’t believe that he’d go to such lengths to make her submit to him.

” who is that visitor? “

” It was your uncle Wilson, but he did nothing wrong that man is family and would not do anything to hurt us.”

When Ciara heard this, she thought to herself ‘well guess he already did hurt us.’

“I understand, can I go see Pa?”

Ciara’s father who had been quiet all this while, standing emotionlessly not too far from them answered on his wife’s behalf.

“only family is allowed entry to the ICU ward, the last time I checked we don’t have a family member like you. A disgrace to our surname, you dare show up with a man in front of us, I bet he is also in that writing hobby of yours. Nothing but useless achievements. “

” Williams stop! She’s your daughter. “

Williams’ wife reprimanded him harshly but that still didn’t stop him from releasing his wrath on Ciara.

” She not my daughter, if she was my daughter she would be helping build the Williams empire right now and not chasing after meaningless careers. “

” Hey that’s enough! Now is not the time to be bashing her.”

His wife pulled him away from the duo, who was holding hands tightly with Ciara locking her eyes on her toes and tear drops falling almost on her toes.
