The Love That Passed 46- I love you more than I want you
Third Person's POV Jared gets back to work and Lucy, along with Betty, looks after Colleen during the time that he's busy. Coleen understands that Rick, Lucy's husband, needed her as well because he was sick too. But she was happy that he was getting better as Jared was helping them with all their medical expenses. "I don't know how I will be able to thank you," Lucy told Jared. They were on the poolside just outside their bedroom. "You don't need to, I offered it to you freely. Maybe I was still feeling guilty towards my wife and doing this made me feel a little better." Jared said, sighing. "What are you two talking about?" Coleen asked as she approached them. Jared and Lucy looked at her and they were pleased to see her looking good. Jared stood up and pulled out a chair for her. "Thank you hubby," Colleen said, and then looked at Lucy waiting for their reply. "I was just thanking him for taking care of you and us." She replied as Jared sat beside his wife. He took her hand
The Love That Passed 47- News
Third Person's POV Just as Jared had told Colleen, he went to his office after lunch. But not to work, but he needs to meet Ellie, the private investigator who happens to be a friend of his friend, Noah. He asked his friend to find out everything about Stacey and Derrick. After the first investigation he asked for, he concluded that he needed to do it again in a private matter, so he asked for Noah's help. "Man!" his friend greeted him, and they all sat on the couch. They were inside his office, and he had told his assistant to cancel all his appointments for the day. "How did it go?" he asked. Noah looked at the man beside him, who was Ellie, the private investigator. "The report you gave me was very useful, which made it easier for me to find out about Derrick," Ellie told him, and she handed him the envelope where the results were. He took it and had a look, then started reading it. "So did they use my money?" he said, and Noah nodded. "I don't know how you didn't bother to lo
The Love That Passed 48- More to come
Third Person's POV "This can't be!" Derrick told Stacey. They were in their apartment and were having breakfast when they were bombarded with different chats and messages, trying to know the truth about them. "Did you tell anyone about us?" He asked her angrily. "Of course not!" Stacey exclaimed. "We already talked about this, and we have been like this for a very long time now. Why would I tell you about our relationship to the world?" she added. "Then how did they ever find out about us?" He asked with wide eyes when it almost came out. "I don't know either. I swear I never told anyone about anything related to us." She replied with confusion. In their long relationship, Stacey never flaunts it or tells a single soul about them. She was very cautious, especially when they went out. She didn't even tell her family. What they knew was that Jared was her boyfriend, and they were planning on getting married. "Then who the hell exposed us?" Derrick asked angrily. Derrick is the young
The Love That Passed 49- Hurt him much
Colleen's POV I am happy. I may die, but I am going to die happy. Many won't be able to understand. I should have been crying or self-pitying, but I couldn't. I felt so blessed with my family around me. Although I am worried about Jared, ever since I was discharged from the hospital, he was always busy with something, even if I didn't see what he was doing. But I can feel it. He was happy, sad, and angry. I don't know why he was angry or whom. I didn't want him to feel that way because it might harm him or make him do things that might hurt him. Jared, my husband, is very handsome. Every time he looked at me and gave me that smile, it made me wish to see that longer. I am not a hypocrite; I am sad about the fact that I am dying as well as scared. But I already give my life to my creator, so I only want to do things that can make me and my family happy and have memories that I can bring back when I leave them. Last night, we had our family bonding in our living room. Jared went to
The Love That Passed 50- Two Scandals in a Day
Jared's POV I watched as the news spread throughout the country. Did they actually think that they could get away with what they did to my wife? I am not going to stop until they are totally ruined. I knew Stacey's father, and he was very strict when it came to relationships. Her mother left with another man, which made her dad curse homewreckers. I was sure that she wouldn't be able to go back home now. If she decides to go to her mom's, I don't think that she will be able to stay there for long with the way she has been living for the past few years. Her mother and stepfather were poor, as her dad filed a case against them and had to pay a huge amount of money. As for Derrick, I know who his wife was. I became acquainted with Senator Dean and met his daughter, Mia. She was kind and gullible, but no one wanted to befriend her because she didn't like to dress up well or didn't know how to take care of her physical appearance. Maybe she likes Derrick. That's why Senator Dean agreed to
The Love That Passed 51- Regret
Third Person's POV The citizens have been furious about the news. There were a few who were still favoring Derrick, but most of them were angry at him. They were mad at how he treated his wife, especially when they found out that he was with another woman on their anniversary. Senator Dean first welcomed him as he arrived home. He was furious to see how much his daughter cried because of the news. "How dare you hurt my precious daughter!" Sen. Dean shouted after. "Dad!" Mia exclaimed, shocked to see her sensible father hitting and shouting at someone. She knew her father to be calm and cool. "I am very sorry, my princess. I don't know what comes to mind when I let you marry him. I thought he was nice and sincere to him. It is all my fault," Sen. Dean told Mia. "Everything on the news is not true," Derrick said, trying to gain his trust again. "You can tell that to anyone who will believe in you, but not to me. You better get out of my sight now before I forget that my daughter st
The Love That Passed 52- Good night's sleep
Colleen's POV After we had our lunch, I told mom that I wouldn't be able to stick around because I wanted to rest. I am going to have a check-up tomorrow, and I want to be ready physically and emotionally. I stayed in my room and, from time to time, I looked at the television not too far from our bed. Because I was so curious, I turned it on and watched the news. It was really all over the news. I still can't believe it. I wonder how Jared would react to this. Or maybe he already knew about it. Did he feel hurt? I guess not. The way he talked to me before lunch was good, and I don't sense any kind of jealousy in his voice. I turned off the TV and decided to rest. I want to be healthy for tomorrow because I don't want to cause my baby any trouble. The sound of my phone ringing wakes me up from my nap. I didn't notice that I had slept already. I took my phone, and I smiled after I saw Jared's name. "Hello," I answered. Maybe my voice was a little husky from my sleep. "I'm sorry I wok
The Love That Passed 53- What was that about?
Jared's POV "The baby is fine," Dr. Chin, Colleen's OB Gyne, said after her checkup. She underwent a lot of lab tests, and Dr. Chin was satisfied with the results. "Make sure to take care of yourself all the time; your pregnancy is complicated, and you know that, right?" "Yes," she replied, and I nodded. I looked at Colleen's happy face, and I couldn't help but get influenced by her. I admire her for being a brave and positive thinker despite the fact that she's going to die. With that thought, I couldn't help but feel sad again. "Hubby, are you alright?" she asked, and I smiled at her. Dr. Chin was looking at me as well as warning me not to make my wife feel upset. "Yes, I was just thinking about if we could buy our baby's clothes already," I replied, scratching the back of my head. Colleen laughed, and so did her doctor. "Mr. McLahlin must be really excited," Dr. Chin commented, and I nodded. "Very, I couldn't wait to see our baby that looks like my wife," I said. "I want her t
