Aaliyah Pov.

It's been weeks since I got married to the gentle, peaceful man In Front of me. He might be peaceful while sleeping but I didn't know his attitude and I would like to see what it was like.

He wasn't even improving at all and I lost all hope.

At first I didn't care if he woke up or not. I just wanted my mom to get the treatment she needed. But then the feeling started to change. I felt bad for his parents, particularly his mother. She would stare at him indefinitely, hoping he would wake up suddenly.

All I wanted right now was for him to wake up. I wanted to know who he was and what his personality was like.

I was in the garden, picking out some hibiscus flowers for Clark. His doctor had instructed to always leave the flowers in his room. Then I heard that loud, joyous sound.

The house shattered in fear, and I wondered what had happened.

"What is going on?" I asked one of the maids, and her eyes widened.

"The elder master opened his eyes." She screamed with joy, and my heart knew no limit to the joy I could contain.

I was the happiest person here. I dropped the flowers I was plucking and rushed inside, filled with joy. I walked into the room and saw him.

His stunning brown eyes caught my attention first, followed by his oval-shaped face. His lips and the intense stare he gave his mother without saying anything.

I was blown away by God's gift in his life. He was unexpectedly attractive.

"Clark!" His mother called with tears in her eyes. "I am glad you are alive. I am glad you made it here. I'm happy I got to see you again. Your father and siblings gave up hope, but I did not. I remained hopeful every morning and night. I knew you would fight through this. "You would make it." She poured out her heart slowly, squeezing his hands.

“I missed you, big man." She said playfully and touched his cheeks, but he did not say anything; all I could see was the pain in my mother's expression. I could see the pain in his eyes, too.

Like he was sorry for causing so much trouble.

I walked up to him and smiled. "I am glad you are finally awake." I beamed, hands on his hair, and he gave me a death glare. I immediately restricted myself to the back. It was as if I were his prey, and he could attack at any time.

He returned his gaze to his mother, making signs with his eyes that he wanted to know who I was.

“Oh, Aaliyah? "She is your wife." She revealed, and his eyes widened in shock.

He shook his head, as if he did not believe his ears.

Bella cleared her throat as she realized her son was not taking what she said seriously.

"You see Clark." We could wait until you recover better, but I will explain it now. When you were comatose. We wanted to find you a wife in whom we could confide, but none of them wanted to stay with someone who was not sure he would live.”

“Lincoln owes us a lot of money, so I decided to marry you to her second daughter, but he was hesitant and instead offered the first child, who is now here. She's gentle and has a good heart. When you get to know her, you would know she's one of the sweetest girls that ever happened to you and us. I love her as for me and I would want you to do the same for my sake." She ended and held my hand with a beautiful smile on her face.

"Thank you ma'am. I hope to be your favorite." I expressed my gratitude, and she smiled.

I could feel Clark's gaze on me. It was revealed that he didn't like me and he wouldn't be with me.

The doctor came in before evening to check his health and he revealed something that shattered everybody's heart.

"He wouldn't be able to walk for a long time now but if he gets to see the outside world, he might be able to walk again." He had said with a broken heart.

"He can at least eat now right?" Bella asked and he approved.

I walked into his room with a tray of food

Bella had gone out with her husband to get the wheelchair for him.

"Wakey wakey." I softly whispered into his ears and he shook in fear.

He rolled his eyes at me but I smiled as I held him up.

"I don't know why I got this much attitude from you but trust me, I mean no harm to you or your family. I'm here to stay w….."

He clapped his hands stopping me from completing my words. It was a sign that he wanted no more words from me.

I gently fed him but bit by bit, I watched as he was with elegance. Even on his sick bed, he still ate with diligence. He still had that peaceful and neat side of him.

I just hope he gets well soon and we could talk better on things.

After feeding him the food, I walked outside to empty the tray. I strode back to his room but I heard voices. A familiar voice inside his room.

Could that be Harry?

I could eavesdrop on whatever he was saying then. I turned around to see if no one was staring before I placed my ears on the door.

"You, you think you could make it alive right? Well you did but that won't stop me from killing you with my bare hands just as no one is here. I could just choke you to death and you would be gone.”

“ But all I want to see is you suffer slowly on your sick bed till you die! You die a painful death! When next I get information that you are able to walk, my next target will be ending your life in an instant because of that company ismine!"

I gasped at his horrible words. What!!!!
