Come And Hug Me

Chapter 142 – Anxious And Confused

After taking Ley to Michael's house, Larry immediately carried Zee into his room, with the help of some of his servants to put Zee in bed complete with the tube still attached to her nose.

After that, all the maids left Larry's room.

Now only Larry and Zee were in the spacious and beautiful room. Larry decorated his room beautifully and in such away.

Finished checking her condition, Larry sat beside the bed looking at Zee's face. 

"Honey, how are you today? I want to tell you that I have decided to become a doctor. Besides that, Ley is also getting smarter and healthier now. So, when will you wake up? Ley and I miss you very much and we need you?".

There were tears falling from Larry's eyes when he said those words because Zee had not shown any change in almost two weeks.

Zee was still stiff and did not move at all, only the sound of the machine tool that helped her heart to keep beating.

Larry wanted to treat Zee intensely, he asked the hospital to allow him to take Zee home and shift treatment to him.

Because Larry was a great doctor, the hospital director who knew him immediately allowed him to take Zee home without any problems.

After finishing cleaning Zee's body, Larry immediately caressed her cheek while saying again, "Honey, I promise you! I will be a good doctor, and if you wake up I will take you and Ley wherever you want!".

Once again Larry cried when he mentioned Ley's name which he knew very well that his son missed his mother very much, and Larry couldn't help but give false answers to Ley who every day asked when his mother would wake up.

A few hours later.

Michael and Sophia took Ley home while visiting Zee.

"Papa…". Ley is really a very active child and can't stay still, when he passes the entrance he runs around calling for his papa.

Larry, who was still in the room with Zee, was surprised to hear his voice. Instantly Larry smiled as he looked at Zee.

"Honey, what do you crave? Why is our child so active and screaming so much? Well… I'll see him first!".

After talking to Zee, Larry immediately came out.

Just as Larry opened the door, he saw Ley running towards him, and immediately Larry crouched down with his hands open.

"Come here… Hug papa first!".

Seeing Larry was waiting for him, Ley immediately ran and hugged his father cheerfully.

Larry smiled happily to see him because Ley was great entertainment for him.

Rummaging his hair, Larry said. "Are you done playing? Then bath time?".

Ley also released his father's embrace while playing with his eyes, he said.

"Ley was playing with Uncle Michael and Ley had taken a bath with Uncle Michael. Ley had also eaten with Aunt Sophia!".

"Really? You are really great and smart, if Mama knew she would be happy and proud of you. Larry said while pinching his cheeks.

Ley was very happy to get a compliment from his Papa.

"Larry… How are Zee's conditions?". Sophia interrupted the conversation between father and son because she couldn't wait to find out Zee's condition.

Larry turned to Sophia and Michael with a sad expression. "Her heart rate is still normal although there is no progress!".

"Be patient! Oh yeah, Zee's mother hasn't come here yet?" Asked Sophia while glancing left and right.

"Mom will come tonight because Amel wants to wait for her husband to come home first!" Larry replied.

"Later when Amel comes, please tell me! Because there are many things that I want to ask her." Sophia said.

Larry immediately nodded, and just at that time, Sophia got a call from an unknown number.

Sophia looked at her phone screen while frowning. 

"Who?" Michael asked when he saw Sophia's expression who looked surprised and confused. 

Sophia shrugged her shoulders.

"I don't know, but I'll just pick it up first, who knows it's important!".

Michael immediately nodded and returned to focus on Ley who was busy chatting with his father in the living room, while Sophia immediately picked up the phone.

"Hello… ?" 

"Shopia… It's me!". There was a muffled voice on the other end of the phone.

Instantly, Sophia recognized Jennifer's voice and she began to worry.

"Jennifer, what are you doing? And why are you using a new number?".

"This is my maid number…". Jennifer cried after saying it.

"Jennifer, why are you crying? Did Charles hurt you? Or what? Come on, tell me quickly!". Sophia was getting impatient.

"I was forced into marriage and I'm getting married in a week to a man I don't know at all. Besides, my dad locked me up and took out my cell phone and my car keys." Jennifer said while crying after she finished telling the story.

"Gosh…. You don't cry, I'm sad too!".

"I don't know what to do now, because I love Charles. I want to be with him. But, it seems that is no longer possible, so what should I do, should I run away?".

Sophia took a deep breath, her feelings became uncomfortable because she understood Jennifer's feelings.

"Don't do that, I'm sure Charles doesn't want you to either. Ahhh… I get confused when I remember how tough your parents were". Sophia really didn't know what to say.

"Shopia.. I'll call you later! Because it seems my Papa has called me!".

After that Jennifer immediately hung up the phone without waiting for what Sophia would say.

Sophia's expression became complicated, and she immediately thought of her. She sat down next to Michael.

"Honey, why is your expression like that?" Asked Michael intently.

Larry also looked confused to see Sophia who suddenly cried without making a sound.

Instantly Michael and Larry began to worry.

"Honey, what are you doing?". Michael asked while wiping Sophia's tears. 

Sophia's cries grew louder when Michael hugged her. 

"Honey…. Don't cry like that! Shame on Ley!".

Sophia also stopped crying when she remembered that Ley was among them.

After that, Sophia took a deep breath and said, "Jennifer is getting married in a week, but she's being forced, so can you call Charles and ask how he's doing?".

Larry was surprised to hear Sophia's words, he knew that his brother had fallen in love for the first time in his life, and he could not imagine what his brother would experience when his heart was broken.

"I'm going to call him now!" Larry said as he took his cellphone from his trouser pocket, but before that, he asked Ley to come into Zee's room to look after her.

Ley nodded and immediately ran to his mother's room. 

After that Larry made a call to Charles' number, while Michael was busy calming Sophia. 

"Hello, brother?". Say Larry first after the call is connected.

"What is it?".

"What are you doing?"

"Checking the new contract at the office".

"When did you come back here?"

"I'll tell you later!"

Sophia couldn't wait to see Larry rambling, she quickly took Larry's cell phone.

"Hello… Charles… It's me, Sophia!". Sophia said curtly.

Larry was surprised and didn't say anything and allowed Sophia to talk to Charles.

"What is it?".

"Charles.. Did you know that Jennifer is getting married in one week?".

"Yes".

"If you know why you just shut up and sit quietly in your office while Jennifer is depressed by her family!". Sophia was furious because she thought Charles didn't care.

"I will take care of it! So, you better not think too hard, sorry for the child in your womb!".

Michael started to get angry seeing Sophia who looked uneasy, he immediately took the cellphone from Sophia's hand.

"Charles… See you later! I'll hang up!". After that Michael hung up the phone and returned it to Larry.

Sophia was annoyed to see Michael just end the conversation with Charles.

Michael took a deep breath and then looked at Sophia gently. "Honey, what you did was not right, I know Charles very well. Although he looks calm, actually he is thinking hard to find a way out, and you should know that Jennifer is his first love. Therefore I believe he will not let Jennifer suffer."

After saying that Michael hugged Sophia warmly. Sophia also felt relieved after hearing her husband's words. She also believed in Charles.

At the same time, Charles was silent thinking, he was standing by the window of his room while imagining Jennifer who yesterday whined at him.
