Arthur’s Pov:-
Holding her hand, I kept staring at her peaceful sleeping face. It hurts to see her like this, the pain and guilt were eating me inside. I couldn’t even sleep the whole night and kept staring at her beautiful face, and checking on April every now and then. I kept hoping Davina would wake up soon but she didn’t.
The things she said to me when I hurt her played inside my head, her words hurt me but what I did to her was wrong and not apologizing to her for it made it worse. I wish I could go back and stop myself from doing that but I can’t, I can’t reduce the pain she went through and can’t take those words back I said.
“I’m sorry,” I whispered while kissing the back of her hand, tears rolled in my eyes,
“I shouldn’t have said those things to you, I’m truly sorry,” I said and moved her soft and delicate hand to my forehead.
All of a sudden her fingers began moving, I quickly looked at her and saw her blinking her eyes and groaning a little in pain.
I quickly stood up, “Coop,” I yelled.
“Yes, Mr. Spencer?” he ran inside,
“Call the doctor,” I said in a rush, and Coop immediately nodded his head and ran out of the room.
“Davina?” I called in a shaky tone while holding her small hand in mine.
She kept groaning and blinking her eyes, I didn’t understand what to do as I kept staring at her while gulping in anxiety.
“Mr. Spencer please go outside,” The doctor walked in, I turned to him and nodded my head at him before looking at her and walking out.

I was leaning my back to the wall and staring at the closed door with my hands folded over my chest. The nervousness and fear were increasing inside my chest, I hope she’s alright. I just want to take her home and make up for my mistakes. I need her forgiveness and I’m ready to do whatever it takes to have it.
The doctor opened the door and walked out, I immediately moved towards him and glanced at Davina who was having the medicines which the nurse was providing her.
“Doctor?” I asked,
“She’s alright,” he said with a smile, I released a breath of relief while closing my eyes.
Thank god!
“Can I take her home?” I asked,
“Yeah,” he replied while nodding his head at me.
I glanced at Coop, he quickly nodded his head and followed the doctor.
As soon as I stepped inside, her head turned towards me and our eyes met for a split second before she looked away.
She’s still angry!
I walked towards her and she kept looking at the opposite side.
“We’re going back,” I said while standing next to her bed and looking at her face.
“No,” she replied while still turning away from me.
“You have to!” I said sternly while folding my hands over my chest. She turned her head to me and glared at me.
She’s adorable.
“Mr. Spencer,” Came Coop’s voice from behind me, I glanced back at him and saw him nodding his head at me.
I turned back to Davina and saw her looking at us in confusion, I quickly bent down and lifted her up in my arms.
“Hey,” She shouted in surprise,
“What are you doing, Arthur?” She yelled in anger while wrapping her hands around my neck. I glanced down at her but didn’t reply, as I was carrying her out of the room I saw Coop carrying April. He was holding her in his arms, and she was laying her head on his shoulders, looking at us.
***
We were now sitting in my car beside Davina, I kept glancing at her and she just kept staring at April. The way she was ignoring me was upsetting me but I didn’t say anything and kept quiet. I deserve this, I hurt her and she’s right in her place.
I sighed deeply and turned my head towards the window.
As we reached the mansion, Coop carried April to her room and I carried Davina to my room.
“Take me to my room, Arthur,” she said in an angry expression and in a serious tone.
“No,” I replied while laying her on my bed.
“Fine,” she groaned and tried to get up from the bed but I stopped her,
“Lay down, Davina,” I said while placing my hands on her shoulders and pushing her down. She glared at me and moved her hands to mine,
“Don’t touch me,” She gritted her teeth and pushed my hands away from her shoulders.
I stared at her feeling hurt by her actions, she slowly got up from the bed and tried to stand up but stumbled over,
“Davina,” I quickly held her by wrapping my hand around her small waist.
“Take me to my room, please” She whispered in a weak tone while staring at the ground. Tears rolled down her chin and as I stared at those damn tears began to arouse some kind of a pain in my chest, it dried my throat.
“Okay,” I replied and bent down, I stared at her face while carrying her and walking out of my room. She was hurt and it was clear in the way she looked at me. The pain in her eyes kept reminding me of what I did, It made me feel extremely guilty about what I did.
I kicked her door open and walked inside, the room was dark and empty. I strolled inside her room and laid her on her bed, I pulled the blanket over her,
“Good night,” I said and walked out of her room, I made my way towards my room with pain and sadness in my chest, I felt hurt to see her like this.
I have to do something to make her happy, but what?
I opened my bedroom door and walked inside, I ran my fingers through my hair in frustration. I can’t see her hurt like that and me being the reason for her pain made me feel disturbed.
Should I take her to a movie or shopping? Women like shopping! Should I take her? Will she agree? How about taking her on a date?
Yeah, that’s a nice idea!
Will she come with me on a date?
Surprise date?
Yeah, I’ll plan a surprise date for her. She’ll love it for sure. Women love surprises.
“Mr. Spencer,” I heard a knock,
“Come in,” I replied,
Coop walked inside with a black file in his hands, “Here sir, the file you asked for,” he stopped in front of me while extending it towards me. I took it and signalled him to leave. He nodded his head and walked out of the room while closing the door behind.
I opened the file and my eyes moved to April’s name, her mother’s name, Amelia Garcia.
Amelia Garcia, Who’s she? I have to know more about her parents, I will have to ask Ben to find more details about her parents! Where are they from and all?
My eyes moved to her father’s name, and my eyes widened in shock.
“Arthur Spencer?” I whispered in utter confusion.
What? How is this possible?
