Dragon Loves Me - Chapter 140
Gavon dropped his head and sighed, he took a deep breath and nodded his head “Yes, I will speak with her. Thanks, Bro.”
Gavon hugged Ethan, Ethan smiled and patted his back. “Oh, my did someone call me Bro? Did I misheard?”
Gavon got separated from him and cleared his throat “Who called you?”
“Oh come on, don’t be a shy man. Call me bro again, I will give you some tips.” Ethan grinned.
“Take care of Lyo and sleep well,” Gavon said and left the room leaving the smiling Ethan behind.
Gavon went to the mansion late in the night, Paul greeted him who was waiting for him. Gavon looked at him and said “You don’t have to wait for me, Paul. I can manage.”
Paul smiled and added “I waited instead of Miss, My Lord. She want to wait for you but I pleaded with her to go back to the room so I can wait for you. She also mentioned me to make sure you have eaten something before going to bed.”
Gavon’s heart warmed seeing the Ivy care towards him, he felt glad to have her in his life. He just nodded and went to have his dinner. After dinner, he bid good night to paul and went to the guest room to freshen before entering their room.
The lights are turned off and he can see Ivy sleeping peacefully in the room under the moonlight entering into the room through windows, he sighed again. He lost count of how many times he sighed today.
He slowly reached the bed and sit down, he tucked her hair which is shining in the moonlight, and caressed her face lightly to not make her awake, she seemed to be in deep sleep due to medicines. He missed her face and voice a lot, he want to be with her every second but…
‘Good Night Ivy’ Gavon bent and placed a kiss on her forehead before going to the other side of the bed and hugging her to sleep.
The sun rays kissed Ivy’s face making her groan in sleep, she covered her face with a duvet and continued to sleep. After a few seconds, she felt hot all over her face and removed the duvet with annoyance.
‘Ah… I want an air conditioner.’ Ivy cried in her mind and sat up, she stretched her hands lazily before looking beside her.
Gavon already left her side, she felt the coolness on her bed and thought he woke up early. Most probably he might leave the mansion by now. Ivy sensed that Gavon is avoiding her for the last two days, by the time she wake up he already left the mansion and he returned back after she fell asleep.
Ivy want to have a chat with him once, with that thought she got down from the bed and went to freshen up. After getting freshen up she came down to have her breakfast, she was surprised to see Gavon in the living room.
“Gavon,” she cried in surprise.
Gavon lift his head and looked at Ivy who is coming towards him, he smiled lightly and wished “Good Morning, Ivy.”
“Good Morning,” Ivy replied and sat beside him “Why are you sitting here alone? You can come to our room right?”
“Nothing, I just came from outside and sat here to have some tea,” Gavon answered.
“Oh, Okay. But…” Ivy want to ask him something but Ronald’s voice interrupted her.
“Good Morning Ivy and Brother in law.” Ronald greeted cheerfully.
Both of them wished him back and started having a chat, soon Allora and Simon joined them and they all had their breakfast.
“It’s rare to have Gavon in the house, I am happy that you are staying back for breakfast.” Allora smiled.
Gavon looked at her and added “Sorry Mother, There are a few things I have to handle so I am leaving early these days. I will try to stay for breakfast.”
Allora nodded her head “If they are serious matters you can go Gavon, but we would love if you had breakfast or dinner with us in the day.”
“Yes, brother-in-law. Mom used to say us to have at least one meal in a day as a family. It will increase our communication and strength our bond.” Ronald added.
Simon also wiped his mouth elegantly and added “I agree. Due to that, we tried to come for dinner to home without any delay. So that we all meet twice in the day. We all are one family son.”
Gavon felt warm inside his heart and nodded his head “Sure, I will also follow.”
Ivy smiled seeing Gavon’s happiness, she added some food to his plate and gave him a sweet smile. Ronald who saw this scene felt sour in his mouth and chided “Ivy, you can add some food to my plate too. I also encouraged brother-in-law.”
Ivy looked at him and replied sweetly “My dear brother, don’t you have hands? Use them and if you feel sour then get a wife for yourself.”
Allora also chided him “Yes, Ronald. Let me introduce a few girls to you. You have to get a wife.”
Everyone also nodded to Allora’s words making Ronald corner. Ronald bent down and gobbled down his food before leaving the dining hall in hurry. Once he left everyone burst into laughter.
After breakfast Ivy asked Gavon to accompany her to the garden to which he obliged, they both went to the garden and sat across from each other. They both sat in silence and no one spoke a single word.
“Gavon, I am sorry.” Ivy broke the silence. “I am sorry for behaving like that, I shouldn’t force you and hurt you by speaking like that. I should understand your feelings before speaking like that.”
“No Ivy,” Gavon interrupted her, “That is not your fault, I also behave like a dumb person without considering your feelings. In fact, I am sorry, I am not able to save you, I don’t deserve you.”
His voice becomes low and his eyes are dimmed, Ivy felt sad seeing Gavon like this. She heard a lot about Gavon before she married him. All of them mentioned that he is cold-blooded, hard mindset, doesn’t care about others, and so on. But now the person in front of her is not having any one of that quality.
“Gav, Please don’t say like that. It is not your fault and you are the one who saved me. I am lucky to have you in my life” Ivy said sincerely.
Gavon stood up and walked away from her “No Ivy, I didn’t consider your feelings, I only thought of making you feel comfortable and safe. In that process, I forgot my role as your husband. And you got abducted because of the work I did. I am the one who harmed them but they came for you just because you are my wife. If only. If only… you are not my wife then… then they won’t target you.”
Gavon clenched his hand tightly and closed his eyes, his heart is bleeding while he is speaking those words, he don’t want to look pathetic in front of Ivy but he don’t have any other option. There are so many things happening and he doesn’t know how and when he will affect her. So he wants to make her keep her distance from him to not to get impacted.
Ivy was startled by his sudden outburst, his every word filled with so much pain that she felt it. She almost believes his words and wants to shout at him but seeing the way how he is avoiding her eye contact and the way he clenched his fists is telling her a different meaning.
He is afraid to lose her but at the same time he wants her to be safe, he won’t want to impact her but at the same time, he wants her close to him.
Ivy smiled and stood up from her seat, she walked towards him and stood behind him, and added “Gav, don’t blame yourself, it is my decision to marry you.. I am not forced into this, I really considered so many things before marrying, I am warned about the dangers that will come along with you but still, I married you.”
