Hunter's POV
I wake up early morning and find my wife sleeping beside me while her legs are in my thighs, and her head is still on my chest, and I can't stop the smile that spread across my face, and I wake up as a different person, and I realized what a fool I have been for neglecting her for the past months. I know I care about my wife. I slowly got up and go to the kitchen, and I asked the maids to take a rest day since I don't want to report to work because I want to spend the rest of my day with Maddie.
"Mr. Divenson, good morning. Did you arrived in the office already?" Cal answered on the other line.
"Good morning, Cal!" I responded.
"Wow! It seems to me you had a fantastic night with your wife because you don't sound cranky this morning." He said, and I chuckled.
"Now, I could say you are in big trouble." He declared, and I laughed.
"Come on, Calixto, why do you find it unusual for me to laugh and to have a happy voice," I replied.
"Well, it scared me if you are like this because I am so used to see you grumpy almost every single day of your life, especially if you are so busy. To tell you honestly, it warms my heart to hear you laugh, Hunter. And it would help if you do that once in a while, or every day because I also want you to have an extraordinary everyday life. You are still young, Mr. Divenson, and in my opinion, you should enjoy your time with your wife, and don't let time pass you by." Cal declared.
I always love talking with Cal because I can tell him everything, and he always speaks what his opinion about me is, and for me, Cal became my best friend after I lost Rebecca, and now that I married Madeline, I still confide with him. Most of the time, he was the one who will remind me of my duty as Maddie's husband, but I always ignore his words because I always listen to my mind and believe in my logic even though I know many times I was wrong.
"Why do you love giving me words of wisdom, Cal?" I asked since I am in the mood, and if this is just a typical day, I will never allow Cal to give me advice.
"Because I care about you, Hunter, not only because you are my boss, and you provide me a good salary, but because you are like a son to me." He said, and I felt touched by his words, and I became speechless.
"And I also feel the same way towards Madeline. I care about your wife like she was my daughter too. That is why I wouldn't say I like the way you treat her. And all I want from you is to give yourself a chance to love again, Hunter. Stop wasting your time, I understand how much you love Rebecca, but you have to accept the truth that she was gone a long time ago." Calixto declared, and I sighed, and I felt glad that I don't hate him right now, and I am listening to him.
"I am sorry, Hunter, but I was there, I saw everything, and I know your nightmares are making you afraid to tell your wife, but Maddie loves you, and I think she will understand everything," Cal added. A realization hit me, Cal has a point, and I think it is about time to tell my wife about everything.
"Thank you, Cal, and you don't need to worry because I will tell Maddie about it, and I know my wife needs to learn the truth because I want to sleep beside her every night," I responded, and I can tell it pleased Cal.
"Wow, that is wonderful, Mr. Divenson. I think it is about time to tell her the truth, and I know you will make Madeline happy." He said.
"I know, Calixto, and that is why I am calling you, because I will not report to work today, and please cancel all my appointments for today and reschedule them," I said to him.
"Of course, Mr. Divenson, please enjoy your time with your wife." He said, and I mumbled my thanks before I ended the call, and I was smiling the entire time I started cooking breakfast for us. I realized I need to bring Madeline into a fancy restaurant later tonight and told her about Rebecca, and I am excited to tell her everything. I realized I am now ready to take our relationship to the next level. I know our relationship was different from the other couple.
I felt glad she didn't ask me anything about my past, and she was true to her words when she told me she would wait for me patiently. Now I am ready to tell her everything, and I realized my jealousy towards Jack made me understood I need Madeline in my life. I can't imagine the pain that I will feel if she will be in the arms of another man, especially Jack Morigan, and it is about time to let go of my past to save my relationship with my wife.
I realized Madeline has a class today, and I plan to drive her to the university and wait for her until her classes ended. And I want to visit the University and talk with the President since he is a family friend, and I am also one of the donors of the university scholars. I will discuss the donations that I am planning to give to them this year.
I was cooking breakfast while I was thinking of a place where I can bring my wife later tonight to have a fancy dinner with her, and I smiled when I realized I should get her to the restaurant of Jack so the chef will stop his foolishness towards my wife. I was standing in front of the smart stove when I felt Madeline's arms around my waist, and I can't stop myself from smiling.
"Good morning!" She greeted me, and her sweet voice made me turned around and captured her mouth, and we shared an excellent kiss. And it was not a long kiss, but it made us both breathless, and it felt so wonderful to hear my wife moaned early morning, and I hate that I need to stop kissing her to finish cooking the egg fillet and bacon.
"It is indeed a beautiful morning!" I responded with a wide grin on my face, and Madeline put her arms on top of the kitchen island's counter, and I felt conscious that my wife is watching me cook, and I can feel my face blushed.
"Do you need some help?" She asked, and I quickly shook my head.
"Of course not. I plan to bring you breakfast on bed, but I didn't realize you will wake up so early," I responded and return my focus to the nonstick frying pan.
"Don't you have work today?" She asked, and I turn my head towards her, and I look at her mesmerizing eyes.
"Yes, I take a vacation leave," I answered.
"Why? Do you need to do something? " She asked, and I moved closer to her.
"Yes, I want to spend my entire day with you today and bring you into a fancy restaurant during dinner," I said, and a beautiful smile spreads on her lovely face.
"I have class today." She declared.
"It would be alright since I need to talk with the university president since he is a family friend, and I want to discuss some important matters with him," I responded.
"Ah, okay, but I can skip my afternoon class because we had an exam last meeting, so I guess it would be alright if I will have to do cutting classes," Madeline replied, and I smiled at her.
"That would be lovely then, and I am glad I can spend more time with you," I responded.
Madeline helped me prepare the table, and we eat our breakfast while stealing some sweet kisses; I hate myself why I didn't allow myself to be happy with my wife. After eating breakfast, I cleaned the table while Madeline washed the utensils.
I can't stop myself from claiming my wife's sweet lips as we walk to the living room. I nibbled her lower lip with my tongue before I slithered my tongue inside her sweet mouth. I hear Maddie groan in pleasure, I sucked and toyed her tongue, and I felt so aroused. I couldn't help myself but carried my wife going to our bedroom, and I undress her quickly, and she did the same to me, and I trailed my tongue all over her body, and we made love passionately. We took a bath together, and it feels so wonderful, and I realized I was such a fool to have missed something incredible like this.
I drive Madeline to the University, and I felt so happy, and I can't stop myself from stealing glances at her. She was also doing the same, and every time our eyes meet, I can feel the electricity that travels my entire body, and I kissed her during the red signals. I felt so happy that Madeline didn't give up on me, and it made me realized it is really about time to tell her the truth.. And I am now ready to let Madeline knows everything about me, and I hope she will not judge me and she will stay by my side.
