Loving Madeline
Chapter 195 - My Wife's Craving

Hunter's POV

I felt so happy when Gina arrived because I know my wife is not feeling well lately, and she looked so delighted when her best friend came. I needed to entertain my brother, and I felt a little frustrated that mom and Lily couldn't come. I wanted to invite Calixto and his wife, but I know he still needs to rest so he can go back to work.

I don't want to leave my wife at the Villa because I don't want to be separated from her even for a while, but she was craving a Ceasar's salad from Lydia's restaurant. I can make her one, but she wanted to eat something made by Lydia, and I want to make Madeline happy all the time. And the way she begged me made me want to take her into our room and make love to her. And I realized I liked the way my wife flirted with me.

"Parker and Rebecca are still on the island. We are going to have a steak for our dinner tonight. I will buy you a salad from Lydia. Do you want anything else, Madeline?" I asked her while I was hugging her waist.

"That is all I wanted as of the moment, and I am sorry that you have to go to Lydia's place at this hour, my love." She sweetly said, and my heart swelled.

"Of course, I will swim the ocean for you, Madeline," I responded, and my wife giggled.

"I think I should go now so you can eat your salad on time," I said, and I got up from the sofa, and my wife sent me to the car, and I don't understand why I don't want to go, it feels like my heart doesn't want to leave her.

"Maddie, I don't know why it feels like I don't want to go, and it doesn't feel like I want to leave you right now. All I want to do is to be with you in our room." I said as I brought my wife closer to me, and she cupped my face.

"We can be alone in our room later tonight, Hunter. I will be right here waiting for you." Madeline responded, and I could feel my entire body ignited with fire. I kissed her on the lips before I got inside my car, and she didn't get back inside the house as I drove away from our vacation home, and I watched her figure in the rearview mirror until I couldn't see her anymore.

I was driving my car fast because I wanted to be back as quickly as possible, but I made sure I would not go beyond the speed limit because I didn't want to be in trouble. I smiled when I received a text message from my wife telling me to be careful, and she would be waiting for me to go back to our vacation house, and I was smiling like an idiot. 

Lydia came to me immediately when I got to inside the restaurant, and I felt so happy to see her. I told her my order right away, and she asked me to sit down, but I opted to move closer to the counter when my phone rang, and I smiled when I saw Calixto's number on my screen.

"Cal! How are you?" I asked, and I realized how much I miss Cal.

"Hi, Hunter, I missed you, son," Calixto said, and I smiled, and I could feel the sincerity in his voice and how I wish my father would call me and tell me the same thing. Even if he is not my biological father, Clark Divenson was the only father I know, and he was my legal father on papers.

"I hate to say this, but I miss you too, Cal, especially in the office," I replied, and he laughed, and I couldn't stop myself from laughing with him.

"It is okay to be sweet sometimes, Hunter; it will never make you less a man if you tell your loved ones and friends that you miss them if that is what you feel." He responded, and I smiled.

"Okay, I miss you so much, Calixto, your arrogance, and the way you treat me as your boss and sometimes the way you deal with me like I am your employee and as your son." I declared.

"Ha, I didn't know I was arrogant, Hunter; you never tell me that, at least now I know what you think of me." He said, and I smiled.

"You know I am just kidding, Cal. You are the most reliable employee I could ever ask for, and you are good with everything, even in my personal life. I wouldn't miss you if you weren't a good person, Calixto," I responded.

"Thank you, Hunter; where are you?" He asked.

"I am here at Lydia's restaurant as of the moment, and I came from our vacation house because I am having a second honeymoon with my wife, and she was craving a vegetable salad," I replied with a wide grin on my mouth.

"Wow, a second honeymoon, you deserve that after what happened to us. It wasn't easy being trapped in that tunnel for how many days without the sunlight and without seeing your wife. The worst experience I had with you." Cal said, and I agree with him.

"Yeah, you were right; the most terrible thing that ever happened to us together," I replied.

"Yes, indeed, but we are still lucky, we survived, and we are given another chance in life to be with our family and friends. The day the rescuers rescued us was the best day of our lives as well." My assistant said, and I agree with him.

"That is why we should live our life at the moment; you laugh more often and love without reservation," He said, and I smiled even if I didn't see his face.

"Yeah, I had learned that lesson when I was trapped with you, Cal," I replied.

"By the way, I will no longer disturb you since you will be driving back to your villa. I will call you again soon; enjoy your vacation, son." Calixto said.

"Thank you for your call, Cal. I will be waiting for you to come back to the office soon." I replied, and Cal said goodbye to me and ended the call. Just on time, Lydia was already walking towards me with my order in her hands.

"Please, don't pay me, Mr. Divenson. I want you to give this to Madeline and send my regards to your pregnant wife." She said, smiling at me.

"Lydia, please, just accept my payment," I said, and she shook her head.

"That is my gift for her." She said.

"Okay, thank you so much for this, and I need to go now, Lydia, since my wife is craving this salad of yours, and I don't want her to get hungry," I said as I smiled at her.

"Of course, I understand, Mr. Divenson, you should not keep your wife waiting. Goodbye, and drive safely." Lydia responded as she walked me to the door.

"Thank you, and goodbye, Lydia," I said.

I was driving my car fast again, and I was so excited to get back into our villa and give my wife her food. Calixto doesn't need to remind me to take care of Madeline because I promised to take care of her. And I will give my wife anything that she needs, and I will make sure she will be happy with me. I have hurt her countless times, and this time I will try my best to be the perfect husband for her even if I know there will be many more challenges that will come our way, but I am confident our love and trust for each other will make our relationship stronger.

I am driving in high spirits, and my car stereo is blasting with my favorite music when suddenly my phone rings, and when I look at the caller on the screen of my car, I see it was Parker. I smiled as I realized they had already got back to the villa after their picnic at the Virgin Island, and I wondered what my brother wanted.

"Hello, Parker!" I said the moment I answered his call.

"Hunter, there seems to be a problem here." He said, and I suddenly got nervous since I knew right away it concerned my wife because she didn't call or text me.

"What happened to Madeline, Parker?" I asked right away, and I couldn't stop feeling so nervous as I waited for my brother to answer my call while I was tightly gripping the steering wheel of my car.

"Did they come and meet you?" He asked, and I became confused.

"No, Madeline is there in the villa because she was waiting for me, I bought her salad at the Magnolia diners, and now I am on my way there," I replied.

"Your wife is not here, and Roman was furious because it was late when he found out your wife was gone with Gina when he noticed Gina was driving the car fast." He said, and I felt my entire body weakened, and I didn't understand why my wife would run off with her best friend. She could have told me if she didn't want Rebecca to be in our vacation house. Madeline can confide in me about everything because I will listen to her. I said goodbye to Parker right away and told him I am

on my way, as I drive my car faster without caring if I will be overspeeding.

I dialed Madeline's number, but it was off, and when I called Gina's number, I couldn't contact her either. I felt so worried about what was going on because I knew my wife would never leave without a valid reason because I knew how much she loved me, and I don't think she was faking the way she talked with Rebecca and Parker. 

I realized maybe that is why she acted the entire day differently because she was planning to do something with Gina. I know Madeline will never leave the house without me because she is pregnant with our child.. And I could tell something was going on, and I hated why I left the house.
