He Only Married Me For Revenge

Chapter 82: His big heart problem

Madi's POV:

Eleven o'clock in the evening.

I heard the ring of my phone. I opened my sleepy eyes and tried to hear again if it's really my phone rings or I am just dreaming.

But it rings again.

"Gosh! It's really my phone! Who is this angel from heaven who would love to call from this hour?" I asked myself feeling annoyed.

I opened my bedside lamp and get my phone but the name that's flashing on the screen is none other than Gabriel's name.

"Hello?" I greet in a sleepy voice.

"Hi love, good evening."

When I heard the word love, I suddenly remembered what Stacey told me earlier in the hospital, about Gabriel's feelings towards me before.

"Hi, what time is it there?" I asked not knowing what to say. Stacey's words were now dancing behind my mind.

"It's five in the morning here, so I called before you go to sleep."

"Hmm.. actually, I was already asleep before you call."

"Oh..I'm sorry. It's only ten pm in Chicago right?"

"I'm not in Chigaco. I am in Florida. It's already eleven pm here."

"Oh love, I'm sorry. W-When did you go there?" I can hear the disappointment from his voice.

"Yesterday morning."

"Hmm.. so how's your Mom?"

"She's okay. Ahm.. do you have something to tell me, so you decided to wake up early at five just to call me, Gabriel?"

I heard him sighed.

"Actually, I just want to hear your voice. I haven't heard your voice for almost two days. And of course to say I missed you and I love you."

"Gabriel-----"

"I know. I understand, but please just let me do and say these things to you. I just want you to know that I love you, Madi."

"You already told me that." I smiled, biting my lips.

"Yeah?"

"Yeah." my smile widened more when I heard him chuckled on the other line. But when I remembered about Stacey's child, I sighed loudly.

"Why? Is there something happened?"

"Why didn't you tell me that Stacey's child was not yours?"

"Ohh... I - I was planning to tell you that actually. But I just don't know how to start. I don't want you to think anything from the past, especially when Stacey's involved because she was the reason why you left me."

"I saw her earlier."

"In Florida?"

"Yeah, in the hospital."

"What is she doing in the hospital?"

"She's taking care of her father who was diagnosed with a third stage lung cancer. And at the same time she's also busy attending the needs of her son, who also diagnosed with brain tumour."

"A brain tumour?"

"Yeah, he's too young for that."

"And Ray? What is he doing?"

"He ran! He ran away from his obligations!"

"Fuck him! His son is suffering right now but he just ran?"

"He doesn't know. He broke up with her when knows that he's going to be a father."

"Fuck him!"

I can't blame him for cursing Ray, not because he stole his woman before, but for being a total asshole and irresponsible father. That's the same feeling I felt earlier.
