Chapter 59

• " Albert, you surprised me. You used to be arrogant, but this new Albert, who humbled himself to become a good husband and father, will not sit well at this moment." " Well, we have a lot of time together, and just give me a chance so that you will believe in me." " You cannot say that I am not a reasonable person. Because that is what you want, then it is up to you. Right now, I am tired, so I'm going to bed." Albert then smiled at Martha. " The reason we are here at the villa is for both of us to regain our health. You have been in a coma for a long time, so get a good rest so that you can recover well." " I have said what I should say, and I guess it is time for me to rest for a while." Albert felt happy that Martha seemed to give him a chance. " if there is anything you want or anything you to change in this villa, you can tell me. Come here, let us lie sleep together. The breeze here is good for our health." Martha inhaled deeply. Sleep? She did not like to sleep with him. But indeed, the air on this side of the villa is useful to the lungs. Also, the garden that surrounded the vast land was an excellent sight to behold. The trees are always swaying, with the leaves here and there; the sound of nature can put the mind at ease. Albert put his arms under Martha's head and pulled her to his chest. He kissed her forehead and caressed her arms. Having her beside him felt that he was at home. Albert could not understand why every time he held this woman in his arms, he felt relaxed. Immediately, his tired eyes become heavy. He really knew it in his heart that Martha is his sleeping pills. Albert forgot the worries of the world. He drifted into a state of contentment. Martha noticed that Albert immediately became sleepy. She had seen it when they were in the hospital that the moment Albert embraced her, he would become drowsy and would sleep for several hours. Martha compared it when Albert would sleep on the sofa. A small sound or movement would always awaken him. However, when he slept with her, he would sleep straight for hours, and he would only wake up when Martha would shake him. Perhaps, Albert really relished sleeping beside her. At least, his sleep was genuine. Because he was snoring beside her, Martha, on the other hand, could not sleep. However, she wanted to lie down too. Perhaps she had overslept for several days because she was in a coma. That was why, although Albert was already sleeping, she could only listen to his resounding snores. In her mind, the first thing that Martha would like to do was to visit Bruce. But how could she leave this place? Martha was certain that she would travel outside of the country the moment, Albert would be alarmed. But Martha needed to meet Bruce. She missed him terribly. They were good friends. Before she got married, Bruce had an accident. If Martha did not see Bruce, Bruce would find a way to see her. And Martha could not alarm his grandfather. Besides, Martha would not like Albert to know about her other hidden companies. It was tantamount to baring her soul. She did not trust Albert enough, even if they were married.Martha could not understand herself. How come she could trust Bruce when she never loved him. How come she could not trust Albert when she loved him before. Was trust different from love?
