The CEO Who Hates Me

He told her everything and he started it with the moment he had met her . He confessed that he had fallen in love to her that day she said h.e.l.lo . Then he continued as he came clean of everything . He did not leave a single thing that involved Cecile . He told the truth, every little piece of truth from the start .

After his long confession, Karl exhaled loudly . He felt that the heaviness in chest had lightened .
He couldn"t believe that he finally did it . There"s no more hiding, no more secrets .

He looked at Cecile with begging eyes . He was ready to beg on his knees for her forgiveness and so he did .

"I"m really sorry Cecile . I did not intend things to hap . . . " he repeated but Cecile stopped him .

"Shhh . . . How many times do you plan to say sorry to me? Things already happened and I understand everything . You did nothing wrong that time… You"re also a victim . " said Cecile with her soft calm voice .

"But you know what makes me sad? It"s because you are saying sorry for the wrong thing . . . " he heard her speak with tone of irritability .

Karl creased his forehead and looked at Cecile with a confused face as he blinked several times . He was quite at lost with the sudden change on Cecile"s expression .

Cecile"s mouth twitched as she let out a long deep sigh . She already had a hunch that the man that night who she had slept with was Karl . But she was too occupied with Aldrin"s death to care less .

She knew Karl was a nice man . He was always good to her even before but it really surprised her that he had loved her in silence for that long without saying a word until now .

"Karl we"ve been together and married for years and you will only tell me your true feelings now? Did you know the dilemma I suffered thinking you just married me because you want to take responsibility on what had happened that night?" Cecile snapped .

Karl"s mouth opened wide in shock . He did not expect Cecile"s reaction . He could say that her current look was neither negative nor positive .

Cecile told him also everything and how she had waited for him to clarify things .

They apparently had a big misunderstanding for both being quiet for all those years .

"I a.s.sumed all your actions with the thought that you"re doing things because you feel responsible . For all those years, how I hoped that we could truly act like married couple with feelings involve like normal people, like how it should be… Not like a robot that we often did things because it"s our responsibility as a married couple," Cecile continued but this time she was stammering as she talked . Her tears that she was trying to suppress began to fall out from her eyes .

Hearing that, Karl hugged Cecile tight and said, "I"m really sorry . Cecile I promise to make things right . Oh G.o.d, I"m so stupid . I am sorry . . . "

Cecile was sobbing still while in his embrace as she speaks, "Why are you so insecure and a sissy? Yes, Aldrin was someone who was very special and will always be kept in my heart . But past was past . Karl… you are my husband and I love you . Aldrin was my past but you are my present and my future . . . "

Yes Cecile loved Karl because he was someone you could easily fall in love with .

"I love you so much Cecile . Geez, I should have been honest earlier . I"ve wasted so many years . How about we try to make a sister for Ryu? I think it"s not too late…" Karl suddenly said with a jest to make Cecile laugh .

It broke his heart seeing Cecile was crying…

Cecile burst out in laughter as she wiped her tears then she hit Karl"s chest with her little fist . "You… how can you joke around like that as if we"re still young," Cecile said while she blushed .

"Well we have to make up for those wasted years and I intend to pay you double for my stupidity . So dear wife, how about I start it by giving you a princess this time? I think it"s still possible… let make a princess…" Karl continued as he caressed Cecile"s blus.h.i.+ng face .

This time Cecile smiled and said, "Stop teasing . . . and joking . . . See? I"m no longer crying so stop . "

Karl winked at her before he pulled his wife once more and wrapped her to his embrace .

From now on, both of them will focus on the future… they will move forward making up for those years wasted .

It was never too late, as long as they live; they could seize the moment and always start anew . . . together… as married couple in love .Karl was still trembling as he waited for Cecile to speak . They were sitting on one of the bench at the main veranda as they faced each other . He told her everything and he started it with the moment he had met her . He confessed that he had fallen in love to her that day she said h.e.l.lo . Then he continued as he came clean of everything . He did not leave a single thing that involved Cecile . He told the truth, every little piece of truth from the start . After his long confession, Karl exhaled loudly . He felt that the heaviness in chest had lightened He couldnt believe that he finally did it . Theres no more hiding, no more secrets . He looked at Cecile with begging eyes .
