NS 09: LUST TOUCHED ✅

Chapter 25

Ghaile stared at his wife lovingly, wondering if he pretend to ignore her or she is telling the truth after her apologies. He is waiting for more. Her explanation basically. Why she hasn't told him properly that she is tending to an outpatient.

Pero nang hindi pa rin nagsalita si Jellyann ay huminga na lamang siya ng malalim at banayad na umiling. Mukhang sorry lang talaga ang mapapala niya. Pinukol niya ng nagbabantang tingin sina Leih at Yam na kapwa nakabusangot sa sofa na nasa sulok. Parehas niyang nabatukan ang dalawa dahil inabutan niyang itatali sana ng mga ito si Jellyann.

"I'm sorry, Ghaile...ahm-"

"Let me know properly the next time you'll visit your clients. Hindi kita pagbabawalang gawin ang trabaho mo," he interrupted for her fifth times apology.

She nodded, pursing her lips in a thin line and can't looked straight right to his eyes. She's lying and it pained him. They've just got married and yet, she still can't able to trust him completely.

"This is new," puna niya sa bangle na suot ng asawa at hinawakan ang pulso nito. Ngayon lang niya nakitang suot nito iyon. "Where did you get this?" Obviously, it's not an ordinary bracelet. More like a tracking tag device.

"A gift from my patient," mahina nitong sagot.

He breathe deeply. There's a lot to work out between them and it's hard if she is keeping something from him out of the gutter. Pakiramdam niya, anumang oras ay aalis ito para iwanan siya. Although, he is preparing himself for the inevitable but being alone without her is dreadful.

They had dinner outside before going home to Gaia Laurel. Her silence is getting into his nerves but dealing the frustration objectively is all he can do to avoid more trouble. Walang maitutulong sa kanilang mag-asawa kung paiiralin niya ang inis.

"Anong surgeries ang ginawa mo kanina?" tanong nito habang nasa harap ng dresser at nagpapatuyo ng buhok gamit ang blow dry.

"Aneurysm repair," tinanggal niya sa baywang ang nakabalot na towel at hinagis sa love seat.

Saglit ito natulala sa kanya at hinagod siya ng mapupungay na mga mata. "Did it occur in the Aorta?"

"It did and it has burst out in an earlier minutes before the operation is performed causing a fatal bleeding internally." Nahiga siya sa kama.

"But I'm sure you succeede removing the dilated part of the vessel on time." Ngumiti ito mula sa salamin.

Tumango siya. "We replaced it with a synthetic unbreakabl material."

Natapos ito sa ginagawa at lumapit sa kama matapos ibaba ang black-out curtain sa pinakamalaking bintana. Nahiga ito sa tabi niya at bago pa nito mahapit ang kumot ay mabilis siyang nakabalikwas papunta sa ibabaw nito. He made love to her and she returned the pleasure ten folds.

Mahimbing na ang tulog ng asawa nang bumangon siya at kinuha sa cabinet ang attache case kungsaan nakatago ang resulta ng imbistigasyon ng PBI. Ngayon lang niya iyon masisilip. Mula sa loob ng case ay binuksan niya ang silyadong envelope at nilatag sa centerpiece ang mga dokumentong laman.

Nanigas ang mga panga niya nang makita ang mga litratong palaman ng mga papeles.

Gilbert and Leylla Navalez. Kahit hindi niya tanda ang mukha ng mga ito ngunit dama niya ang malakas na koneksiyon niya sa dalawa. And his gut was right because the couple are his parents. There was a copy of his live birth with their names on it stood as his father and mother.

May litrato rin doon ni Icaruz Sarmiento kasama ang mga katibayan kung kailan siya dumating sa poder nito at ang legal adoption papers. Sa mga sunod na pahina ay ang report ng krimen na nagyayari sa bahay ng mag-asawa. They were murdered by hired people of Red Scorpion. The last volume of the investigation result is about Jellyann and it tells him the hidden truth as well.
