Taming My Arrogant Husband novel Chapter 88

"But what if I told you that I also spent 20 minutes inside that coffee shop just to check if you were there?"

My mouth opened slightly and I don't know how to answer him anymore. 

"Tell me the truth, Sophia, where have you been?"

"I went to the hospital."

"Hospital? But what did you do in the hospital? What happened, are you sick? How are you feeling right now---"

"No, it's not me, I'm fine. I just visited an old friend." I said holding his hands to stop him from touching my neck and forehead. Concern was evident in his eyes. 

"You visited an old friend." He repeats, nodding. 

"I received a phone call from the hospital earlier and they told me that this person wanted to talk to me, so I immediately ran to the hospital."

"And who is this old friend you visited? 

"Nicholas De Lucca."

His eyes widened but I'm not sure if it's from being shock or for anger. 

"You visited the father of the person who molested you?"

"Yes, but---"

"What if he hired someone to get you or else to kill you?" His voice came a shout that made me step back. 

"He can't do it anymore."

"Are you sure? He's still a businessman, Sophia! And a businessman's mind is always advance when it comes to something like this!"

"I know, but telling you he can't do it anymore."

"And how would you know? Even if he is in the hospital, it doesn't mean---"

"He passed away!"

And that made him stop. 

"What do you mean he passed away?" He asked in confusion. 

"He passed away. He's gone. He's dead. He died in front of me! He lost his breath in front of me after telling me his last wish to tell his son how sorry he was and how much he loves him!"

"Okay, I got it. He died this afternoon and he had last wish. So where did you go after visiting him in the hospital? Don't tell me you went to---"

"Yes, I also visited him. I visited the son of the person who died right before my eyes and fulfilled his wish."

"What? What the hell are you thinking, Sophia? Are you out of your mind? He's a criminal! Didn't I tell you not to go back there anymore?"

"There's nothing wrong with fulfilling someone's wish, Daniel. I know you're worried, but I came home safe. And he finally apologized for what he did."

"Really? And did you just accept his fucking apology? So does that mean we are no longer pushing the case against him because he already apologized to you?"

Annoyance suddenly rose from my chest on hearing his words. 

"What are you talking about? Yes, he apologized but I didn't say that I accepted it and that I will pull the case back against him. What can't you understand about it? His father died and asked me to talk to him and that's all!"

"But you should have told me! You should have called me to come with you! You don't know how worried I was! I waited for you for almost five hours!"
