Healing my disabled husband novel Chapter 953

Chapter 953 Unhappy in one's Own Heart

Beata didn't care if the owner of this dog was nearby, but just rubbed its head vigorously. She had always wanted to have a pet, whether it be a cat or a dog. River never allowed it before, but now that Averi was here and the Knight family had their own cat, Beata felt like she could finally have her own big dog too.
Beata made up her mind that if this dog didn't have an owner, she would take it home with her.
It was such a big dog and she couldn't tell how old it was. As Beata rubbed the dog's head with joy in her eyes, she heard someone calling out "Fat Bea! Fat Bea!"
Beata rubbed the dog's head while looking in the direction of the voice.
It was strange that the dog heard someone calling it, but it just wagged its tail and didn't move at all.
Beata looked in the direction of the voice, and finally, after a few more "Fat Bea" yells, she saw who was coming.
Harvey Walsh!
What the heck!
Wasn't he her desk-mate?
Harvey seemed to be stunned, and the moment he saw Beata, the tips of his ears turned red immediately.
Of course, he thought he was covering it up very well, but all this appearance was noticed by Yael.
Harvey came over, thinking it was natural to greet Beata, "Beata, why are you here?"
"I'm just taking a walk after dinner," replied Beata.
"I live around here," said Harvey pointing towards the small community across the street. He then looked at the the dog and joked, "Are you trying to run away from home?"
The dog seemed obedient at this moment as it ran over to Harvey's feet while being playful.
Beata pouted realizing that the dog belonged to him already so there wasn't any chance for them to be together anymore.
However, soon enough an idea popped into her mind as she looked at Harvey with fake smiles on her face, saying, "Harvey, don't you think you should explain something?"
"Explain what?" asked Harvey innocently.
Beaming dangerously at him now with narrowed eyes, Beata said, "What did you call it?"
"Fat Bea," replied Harvey nonchalantly. "My mom named it."
Beata was speechless.
Wow, why didn't she believe him?
Harvey was also observing Beata's expression and feeling nervous. He hoped he hadn't given himself away. If Beata found out that he had named his dog Fat Bea because of his feelings for her, and that he talked to Fat Bea about how she would be its mother one day, then Harvey would be in big trouble.
He never expected Fat Bea to actually understand what he was saying, but the smart little dog surprised him by running over to Beata as soon as it heard her name.
Harvey knew that if Beata found out about his secret feelings for her, it could ruin everything. So the only option was to blame his mom for naming the dog.
After all, this could affect Harvey's future happiness with Beata. He believed that his mom would take the blame for him.
However, what Harvey didn't know was that someone standing nearby had seen through all of his schemes.
Yael felt a chill run down his spine when Harvey appeared on the scene. He knew that Harvey sat next to Beata in class and had feelings for her.
As Beata's bodyguard, Yael couldn't do anything unless Harvey did something to upset her. But now that Yael realized what was going on inside himself, he couldn't treat Harvey like any other classmate anymore.
Unfortunately for Yael though, there wasn't much he could do or say at this moment without causing problems. Even though he felt annoyed inside himself about it all...
But Yael's presence alone made Harvey feel uneasy and intimidated him greatly!
If it were anyone else in this situation with questions about their relationship with each other, they might try asking just so they can get a better idea of where things stood between them. But not when faced with someone like Yael, it wasn't worth taking any risks!
It was just that Harvey wasn't an idiot, and what men thought about men was much more obvious to each other.
Harvey originally planned on waiting until after graduation before confessing how much she meant to him... but now? What should he do?
