99 Days Trapped in the Body of the Royal Prince’s Wife - Chapter 40

Mia has received treatment on her leg after Michael took her to the doctor. By now she had arrived at the man’s apartment area and was walking down the corridor to the elevator barefoot because she was still sick.

‘Why is he not romantic at all, he should have carried me when he found out I was limping like this,’ thought Mia, who was led by Michael. She felt a little disappointed but also grateful that Michael had responded so well to her. ‘I hope he can be romantic one day and I will continue to make him fall in love with me.’

“I think tomorrow you just need to stay home,” Michael muttered.

“I guess that’s the way it should be,” Mia said.

“And maybe I can’t stay there tonight.”

“Why?” Mia asked, glancing at Michael very curiously.

Michael smiled faintly then said, “I’ll give you that answer later.”

“You make me curious.”

“And I like to make people curious, it’s like I will be the center of your attention,” said Michael while continuing to watch Mia until they arrived at the elevator. He immediately pressed the number 14 button where his apartment unit was located.

Mia was silent, leaning her back against the wall occasionally glancing at Michael who was standing beside her with a straight look ahead. there was a sense of relief in her heart because the man beside her seemed to give her hope, but there was also a fear that Casey suddenly woke up and made the man not pay attention to her anymore.

“Do you love Casey?” She asked.

“I love her but…”.Michael answered doubtfully.

“But what?” Mia asked again.

Michael turned to look at Mia seriously, again gripping her hand. “I don’t know with this feeling but what I feel now is I’m comfortable near you but I also love Casey…I still feel like I have to prioritize her, but I also don’t want to disappoint you. So I hope you understand my situation now.”

“Well … I do have to understand because I’m not the first here,” she said nervously and then removed her hand from Michael’s.

Ting …

The elevator doors opened again. Mia immediately walked out without wanting to be helped by Michael anymore. She kept walking until the man approached her and was forced to lead her.

“Mia, please don’t be angry,” Michael shouted.

“I’m not angry but I just want to rest soon,” said Mia curtly.

“Okay, maybe we can talk later.” Michael resigned, continued to lead Mia without wanting to talk to him again, but his heartfelt restless and suddenly afraid that the girl would stop liking him again because of disappointment. ‘What is this feeling? maybe I fell in love with him because of last night … But what about Casey?’ Michael wondered.

Clara wakes up when she hears the sound of the piano being played so beautifully like the tune of John the legend’s song, All of Me. She sat up and covered herself with a white blanket, then glanced around.

“Where’s Nathan? And who plays the piano?”

Clara was curious. She immediately put on her lingerie and bra, then put on Nathan’s shirt which looked too big for her. The woman walked out of the room following the direction where the piano sound came from. The woman who was trapped continued to walk down the stairs, until her eyes fell on the living room where Nathan was sitting playing the piano, only shirtless wearing jeans.

“He’s so sweet, romantic, and handsome..but sadly, he’s not lucky in love,” whispered Clara, who secretly began to admire Nathan. She continued walking until she arrived at the ground floor, immediately approaching her husband with relaxed steps with her arms crossed.

Nathan continued to focus on playing the piano, ignoring Clara, who came over to him and leaned against the side of the big black piano.

“So perfect,” Clara muttered with a smile.

“It’s perfect when there’s music playing and we’re dancing here as usual,” said Nathan, who had finished playing the piano. He reaching out his hand to grab Clara to sit on his lap with a sideways position then wrapped his arm around her waist, staring at her very intensely. “What do you feel now?”

“Emmm…” Clara rolled her eyes, not knowing what to say.

“Are you happy enough today?” asked Nathan.

Clara nodded her head always smiling and kissed Nathan on the cheek. She remembers how real Clara was when she met on the plane, that memory made her feel like she had to always be cheerful Because that was the true nature of Clara she knew.

“I’m so happy today and here so happy because it’s just the two of us,” Clara said simply.

“Unfortunately the situation is very impossible for us to be alone because I don’t want to take any risks,” Nathan said in his voice that sounded so sexy. he did the hair covering her neck then kissed her cheek, the crook of her neck until it stopped at her lips. “But I promise you once we find out who wants to harm you and put it in prison, maybe we can move here, we can be more comfortable without being watched by the bodyguards or anyone. It’s just me you and …”

“And who?” asked Clara.

“And maybe there’s a baby,” Nathan replied with a faint smile, resting his chin on Clara’s shoulder as he felt her flat belly covered by a shirt. “I want people to know I have children, the denominator I have children, but that’s only from you, not Patricia,” he continued.

Clara was silent for a moment with a fading smile. She glanced at Nathan who looked amazed, it made her sad to remember that what Nathan wanted would never be obtained because the real one was dead and the body would surely be buried…no chance of getting pregnant no chance of giving birth.

“Would you mind if I asked you not to delay the pregnancy?” Nathan asked, glancing at the dreamy Clara.

“Uhmmm of course,” Clara replied with a smile, then touched Nathan’s jaw gently. “But we leave everything to God. Please don’t sue me because whether a woman is pregnant or not is based on the blessing of God,” she continued.

“I know it.”

“Then you don’t have to worry or be sad,” Clara exclaimed and then hugged Nathan. She was silent and continued to hug until her tears just dripped because she already felt how the man would be very hurt later. ‘Oh my God… He’s kind, he’s sweet, he’s handsome, he’s gentle… Please take care of his heart when I can’t take care of him anymore…I really can’t bear to see him sad… I don’t even know after this I can still return to my body or not, whether I can go back to Michael or not,’ she screamed in the heart.

“Honey,” Nathan called, still in Clara’s arms.

“Yes?” Clara said wiping her tears, trying to hide her sadness.

“How about we watch a movie now? I want you to watch that movie because it’s very romantic and meaningful.”

Clara let go of her arms, looking into Nathan’s eyes that were also looking at her with a smile.

“Then we can watch it now, but first I want to go to the bathroom,” she said.

“Okay then I’ll also order snacks and desserts,” Nathan said then pulled Clara and kissed her lips for a moment. “I’ll be waiting for you here,” he continued.

Clara just nodded, then moved from Nathan’s lap. She immediately walked to the room, while her husband took the phone that was above the piano because he wanted to order dessert and snacks via food delivery….
