Unexpected Encounter: They Were Meant To Be Together

737 Special someone

Snuggling in his embrace, Kathy slowly nodded her head. "Hmm, very special."

Loosening his grip around her, he frowned. He wasn't liking the idea of her already having a special someone back in her country and yet being all clingy with him. This was against his morals and was hitting his conscience very hard.

Looking at him, she asked, "What happened?"

Keeping quiet for quite some time, he asked, "Don't you think this is odd?"

Thinking that he was talking about her suddenly being clingy with him and assuming that he wasn't liking it, she felt very embarrassed.

For the past few months, they had been spending a lot of time together and he was very sweet and attentive towards her. He made her feel warm and happy. She had already seen a lot in life but she always stayed strong and faced everything all by herself as she didn't like depending on everyone but when Liang entered her life, things changed.

She felt at peace and secure whenever he was around her. She wanted to completely depend on him because she felt that nothing could go wrong when he was around.

Lowering her head, she pulled away. "I-I am sorry, I just wanted you to stay with me last night but you can leave if you want to."

"That is not what I am talking about." Cupping her face, he added, "I like you Kathy and it hurts when I think about the special someone you already have in your life."

Massaging her temples, he sighed, "Look, though I like you but I still don't want to have something with you knowing that you already have someone in your life."

"What? Seriously what?"

Looking at his confused expression, he sighed, "Anyway, just forget about everything that I just said."

Thinking for quite some time, Kathy asked, "Come with me tomorrow."

"What?" Did she really want to take him to see her lover? Wouldn't he break his head or beat the shit out of him if he saw that guy?

"Hmm," snuggling closer, she added, "You are coming with me tomorrow okay now don't think about anything and let me stay like this for a while."

"No, I am going there to meet your special someone," he retorted.

"Okay then, I'll go alone but what if I faint or feel feverish on the way?" Faking a sigh, Kathy added, "Anyway, I'll manage."

"Fine, I'll go but I won't accompany you to meet him."

Without saying anything, she buried her head on his chest and smiled.

Hospital.

"You finally did it," Clara beamed before giving Philip and Matt a hug simultaneously.

"Thank you so much Clara, we wouldn't have made it till here without your support," Matt said.

"It's alright, Philip has helped me alot too," Clara smiled.

Lowering his head, Philip pursed his lips. "About that Clara I—"

"I'll give you all some space," Ben was about to get up and leave when Clara grabbed his hand.

"It's alright, you don't have to leave." Turning towards Philip, Clara added, "What happened Philip?"

Philip hesitated for a while, not knowing how and what he was supposed to tell Clara. He had been feeling incredibly guilty towards her and this is why he decided to not waste any more time. So after releasing the news about his sexuality, Matt and how Clara helped him through it, he straightaway drove towards the hospital to apologize to her.

After telling her the truth, Philip sighed, "I know I have wronged you Clara but I couldn't lose Matt at any cost so I did everything that I could to save him. I kept lying to you and forced you to stay away from Ben." Pausing for a while, he added, "I know you probably hate me now but please forgive me if you can."

Keeping quiet for quite some time, Clara took a deep breath. "It's alright, I forgive you. What you did was very wrong but it's not solely your fault. I chose to believe you instead of telling Ben about it and finding a solution together. I very well understand how it feels when the life of the person who means so much to you is in danger. You are willing to do anything to keep that one person safe."

Looking at Ben, she intertwined her hand with his and smiled, "I already have everything that I want now and I don't want to hold any kind of grudge against anyone."

Kissing her knuckles, Ben added, "We have decided to start a new life so let's forget about the past and everything that has happened."

After Matt and Philip left, Clara wrapped her arms around Ben's waist and sighed, "I don't really blame him but I feel sad that we wasted a whole year."

"Hey, it's alright. We still have an entire life together babe." Kissing her forehead, he added, "I'll make sure that we make up for the year that we missed too."

Li mansion

"She was in a very bad mood yesterday."

"Yes and she kept lashing at us," Zixin added.

Mian chuckled and asked, "Wow really? Linyang? Who pissed her off?"

"I am telling you Mian, they definitely did something," Yum added.

Zixin frowned and snapped, "What? We? No babe, I did not do anything."

"Yes, me too," Huang added.

"By the way, where is Linyang these days? I don't see her around lately." Mian asked.

"Hmm she was telling me that she is very busy designing a new company."

"Company? Which one?"

Thinking for quite some time, Yumi answered, "Some Urecon Corporation."

Huang almost choked on the scrambled eggs that he was eating while Zixin and Zian frowned.

Patting Huang's back, Mian frowned, "Can't you eat properly Huang? Are you still a baby?"

"Did you say Urecon Corporation?" Zian asked Yumi again.

Yumi nodded her head and replied, "Yes, Linyang told me the name of the company."

Looking at their expressions, Mian asked, "What happened? Is everything all right?"

Smiling at her, Zian nodded his head. "Yes, everything is alright."
