Forced Marriage: My Wife, My Redemption by Lilyheart

Chapter 15: 15 Am not a vegetarian

Ethan couldn't help but marvel at the precise and concise way Jessica handles issues but then he has some flickers of doubt. His investigation had clearly stated that Risa is the eldest daughter of the Brown family, she is spoilt, haughty and conceited. He had expected to see a lady who wouldn't give a damn about Davis but it seems this lady is different. "She had said her name is Jessica Brown, then who is Risa Brown?" He muttered as he walked down the hallway. What is going on, he has a hunch about somethings not been right but he couldn't place his finger on what it is or the part of the puzzle that is missing. Lost in thought he entered his room.

It is dinner time but Davis remained asleep,it has been seven hours and yet no sign of him waking up. Ethan heart raced with fear of the unknown making him anxious. He wanted to wake him up but Jessica had said to let him wake naturally. Pacing back and forth in Davis room, he was not aware when he opened his eyes.

Just like one month ago, Davis's gaze was fixated on the ceiling with its golden coloured chandelier shining brightly, his gaze scanning round the room as fragmented memories of the last thing he did resurfaces but then his eyes fell on Ethan who was standing at the window gazing into the courtyard.

Gradually he propped himself up the bed supporting himself with his hand, "Ethan", he croaked. His throat felt dry, Ethan turned around at the sound of his voice and hurriedly handed him a glass of warm water to wet his parched throat after he had taken a sip he felt much better.

Davis felt refreshed and rejuvenated after the long hours of sleep, he had felt more relieved then he would have felt previously. "How long have I been asleep?" He asked casting a glance at Ethan.

"Seven hours." Ethan answered readily, he noticed some changes on Davis as he woke up. It was as though some heavy burden had been lifted up his shoulders.

Seven hours?" He asked surprised. Since he woke he had never slept more than two hours in the twenty four hours of the day. He felt something must have caused it. He looked at Ethan his gaze probing, he knew that whatever might have been the cause Ethan must know about it. He had been the one that prepared the bath but then he might have been ordered by someone to do so.

"What did you add in the bath?" He asked his gaze sharp. Ethan heart skipped a beat. Davis had been there when he added the essential oils and he never asked but now he is asking "should there have been any problem?" Davis silently noted the changes in Ethan's expression— his guess was right.
