Chapter 200 - Adrian Worried About Her

" Where do you go, Kathie? In which places, I have to search for you? " he screamed. Duke was silently observing his boss. He threw files and other stuff on the workable in frustration. " Sir….please calm down. Just think with a calm mind where Mrs. Wilson went without informing you?" Duke advised. He loosened his tie and sat on his chair thinking about her. He closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair. 

…..

Suddenly, he was reminded about her best friend, Martin. Without wasting a single second, he made a call to him. 

" Hello...Is Kathie with you? " He asked as soon as Martin attended the call.

" Yes…" he replied.

" I am coming to your place. Handle her till I reach your place " he informed and disconnected the call. He stood up from the chair and informed Duke, " If you have any important work with me, make a call to me." Saying, Adrian walked out hurriedly.

....

Katherine sat on the couch in the living room without uttering a single word. Mr. Green's words were roaming in her mind. On the other side, Martin was worried when he got a call from Adrian. Especially her silence and her tears were making him so anxious.

" Kathie….What happened? Why are you here at this time? Do you fight with Adrian? " Martin asked anxiously.

She nodded her head as No.

" Then why are you looking upset and even Adrian? Do you know how he was worried about you? " He questioned her.

" Why can't I live happily like others? Why does my past always remind me of those scars? Why? " she sobbed, closing her face with her palms.

He stood closer to console her. "Princess….what happened? If you don't tell me, how do I know what is making you upset? " he placed his hand on her shoulder. She placed her face on his stomach and cried even more.

Her cry echoed in the room and on the other side he was clueless about why she was crying. As far as he knew her, she was very strong and wouldn't hurt for small problems. He sensed that something hurt her heart deeply that's why she was crying. He caressed her hair to calm her mind but suddenly she fainted and collapsed on the couch. 

" Kathie… " he called her name, patting her cheeks.

Instantly he carried her to Ruby's room and laid her on the bed. As he knew about her health issues, he understood she fainted because of low blood pressure. He covered her with a blanket and went to prepare some hot soup. Then he went to the room to wake her but after seeing her sleeping peacefully he walked out of the room. 

He sat on the couch and was waiting for Adrian to know what happened to Kathie that she again had a panic attack. 

…..

Almost after one and half hours, Adrian reached Martin's place. As soon as he stepped in, his eyes searched for his wife. He couldn't find her so he inquired Martin about her.

" She was taking a rest " he replied in a calm tone. 

" What!! "

" I was worried for her and left all my work in search of her. When I reached her to meet her, she was taking a rest! " Adrian said.

" I mean to say taking rest does not mean she is sleeping peacefully. She fainted due to the panic attack while crying so I carried her to bed. I thought by sleeping for a while, she will get back to normal " Martin replied.

" Panic attack!! " Adrian exclaimed.

" Yes….She is suffering from low blood pressure because for a few years she was living under stress. She had no time for herself to take care of. She worked like a clock by taking all our responsibilities, "he explained.

Adrian felt bad about knowing Katherine's life all these years. Then he asked him, " when will she wake up? ".

" Usually, if she had a panic attack, I used to give some hot soup or some food by waking her. But after seeing her condition, I don't want to wake her till you come here," he informed him. Then he looked at him and asked, " What happened to her? " 

Adrian was silent for a few minutes, then he narrated what happened in the conference room.

" How dare he!! I will kill him with my bare hands to talk dirty about my friend. What does he think of himself? " Martin shouted.

…..

" Martin… Control yourself. I trust my Kathie. His words don't affect me or my love for her" Adrian explained.

" Thanks for trusting her. She worships you like a deity and loves you more than anything on the earth" Martin said.

Adrian smiled sadly at him and said, " But still she doesn't trust me. Still, she hides many things from me. Now also she came to you to share her pain with you but not with him ". Then he continued, " He trusts you more than me. She thinks her friend can understand her pain. I waited till today for her to open up her heart to me. But no, she came to you, sharing her pain. Why? Am I not capable of understanding her pain? Is this what she thinks of my love?"

" Adrian… Please don't talk like that" he tried to explain but Adrian stopped him and said, " Do you know how it feels when our loved ones hide the truth from us? You don't... "

" I can understand every word and can also sense the pain in your heart. And I also why she was still not opening her heart to you. I can only say one thing, I know her past but I have no right to tell you. I want her to tell you the truth because I don't want to interfere between the wife and the husband, " he informed, placing his hand on Adrian's arm.

Adrian looked at him skeptically, then Martin continued, "Being her best friend, I can only tell one thing, the love she has in her heart for you is endless. You are in her every thought, her every dream and every breath, she filled only you. Never doubt her love for you. Be patient and wait till she tells you everything" 

To that Adrian replied, " I never doubt her love for me. I want her to share everything with me. I want to be her friend, her lover, her husband, and everything. I want to be her priority. I want her to come to me in the first place but not others" 

" Don't be jealous, Mr. Wilson. You are always her priority. She is crazy for you, " he said playfully.

His lips curled up with his words and punched lightly on his chest then said, " Yeah….I know how crazy she is for me…"

" Okay...I will prepare coffee for us. Meanwhile, you check your crazy wife…" Martin suggested.

Martin went to the kitchen whereas Adrian went to check his wife. He stopped at the entrance of the room when he saw her. He noticed her swollen red eyes. Slowly he took steps towards her and sat at the edge of the bed. Then he placed his palms at her right hand. 

" What are you hiding from me, Kathie? Why are you not trust me? Don't you know that I will never judge your character? " he thought looking at her pale face. 

With his touch, her eyelids started fluttering. He intertwined his hands with hers and called her name. Instantly she opened her with his voice. Her soul felt delighted hearing his soothing voice. A small smile formed on her lips as soon as she visualized his face. 

Immediately she sat up and hugged him tightly and started crying, " I never cheated you. I am always loyal to you even I stayed far away from you". He patted her back to console her and hushed her by saying, " I believe you and will never judge you, love. Stop crying..."

Once she calm down, she moved away from his arms and held both ears looking at him. Then she said, " I am so sorry. I made you upset even though I know you have many things to take care of in our company ". He wiped the tears on her face and said, " You are my priority". She smiled at him and pecked his lips throwing her hands around his neck. 

Just in time, Martin came with two cups of coffee to the room and witnessed their romance. He made a sound with his throat to make them realize his presence in the room. Katherine moved away and looked at him.

" Why don't you close the door if you can't keep away from each other? I don't want to see your romance…" Martin said. Adrain's face turned red with embarrassment whereas Katherine shouted at him back, " First of all, you disturbed us.. Who told you to come to this room? By the way, I am kissing my husband. If you have any problem then close your eyes "
