Chapter 21 helicopter

"Liana, please leave me alone. I don't have the energy to quarrel with you right now." Zick rose off the bed and left the room.

Liana was furious. She clenched her hands into fists, her body shaking with rage. "I will not let my man think of that middle-class ugly girl," she muttered. "I'll have to do something to make him forget about her soon. I just hope wherever she is, she's already dead."

...…..

Mellisa stepped out of the bathroom after thirty minutes of getting ready. Maxwell had already prepared everything for her, from a new set of clothes to body lotion and all the necessary items for her bath.

"You look beautiful and fresh," Maxwell commented when his eyes fell on Melissa. "If you could just put on a smile, you'd look even more beautiful."

Mellisa forced a smile, her body temperature surging in anger. "Mr., please let me be. If you're not allowing me to kill myself, then just stay away from me because I might end up killing you. Don't underestimate me, because you know I have nothing to lose," Melissa said.

Maxwell displayed a wide grin. He rose off the chair and walked towards Mellisa, who was still standing at the entrance of the bathroom. "Unfortunately, I'm not scared. So just forget about it," Maxwell said, grabbing Mellisa's hand into his. "Come on, let's go."

"Let go of my hand," Mellisa tried to struggle her hand out of Maxwell's grip, but his hand was stronger. "What is wrong with you? Why are you in my case? Just leave me alone. "

Mellisa widened her eyes when she saw a helicopter in front of the hospital, when they reached outside l. She stopped mid-stride, making Maxwell turn to look at her.

"Oh my! I love helicopters!" Melissa exclaimed, her eyes shining with excitement. She quickly let go of Maxwell's hand and ran towards the helicopter.

Maxwell followed behind her, shaking his head. He had to admit, he was a bit surprised to see her so excited and happy. She had been so gloomy and distant before, and seeing her like this made him feel relieved.

He watched as she climbed into the helicopter with enthusiasm, and he couldn't help but smile. Despite everything, it seemed like Melissa still had a bit of her old spirit left." I will do everything to make you smile like this, I promise. " Maxwell murmured as he followed behind Mellisa.

Mellisa was ecstatic when she saw the houses from the top of the helicopter. All her worries seemed to evaporate at that moment, and her true, carefree self was revealed. She was filled with joy, and every so often, she would nudge Maxwell's shoulder to show him how beautiful it was. Maxwell was glad to see her so happy, even though he knew that once they returned home, her mood would change. He was determined to follow the doctor's advice and make sure Mellisa remained stress-free and happy for the sake of their baby.

....

After 20 minutes, the helicopters landed in front of Maxwell's house. Maxwell was the first one to get out of the helicopter, Mellisa grumpily emerged from the helicopter, not happy to be there. Seeing her mood, Maxwell sighed and said, "Come on, let's go inside."

Mellisa rolled her eyes in annoyance, "Who said I'm not coming? Don't forget that you're forcing me to stay here with you."

Maxwell gave a small smirk and said, "Okay, it seems like I have to carry you inside if you're making things hard for me."

Mellisa quickly ran into the house, not wanting Maxwell to carry her. Shaking his head with a smirk, Maxwell followed her inside.

Mellisa went straight upstairs without checking if there was anyone in the dining room.

Michelle slept on the couch after Mark dropped her off around 2 a.m, she frowned when she saw Mellisa running upstairs.

"Melissa," Michelle called out, running to the stairs after her. " Stop. "

Mellisa froze in place when she heard Michelle's voice. She turned her back and looked where the voice was coming from and her eyes widened when she saw Michelle.

"Michelle, " Mellisa called out, shocked. " So you helped him to save my life. Why?? I don't want to talk to you, go away. " Melissa ran fast to her room and slammed the door closed.

Michelle sighed and shook her head, trying to understand why Melissa was so angry. She knew that Melissa had been through a lot and that it was understandable for her to be upset, but she had only been trying to help. She walked back downstairs and settled onto the couch, trying to make sense of the situation.

" Let her be for some time, she will come around. Maxwell who witnessed everything said walking towards Michelle. " Just give her some time to gather her thoughts, she wants to kill herself, and we saved her, so we became her enemies automatically. "

" I understand sir, it's just that I've never seen Mellisa talking back to anyone. I'm actually happy to see this side of her. " Michelle said, as far as she remembered Mellisa, never yelled at anyone no matter what. She would just keep quiet and cry. But now seeing her shouting makes her happy.

" You and I have to work hard to get her out of her depression and forget that foolish husband of hers. " Maxwell stopped midway when he remembered something. " Speaking of her husband, did you find anything about him?? "

" Yes, that other Mr. Told me to tell you that the document is in your study room. " Michelle said.

" Okay, please call me Maxwell. We will be relatively soon, so there's no need to call me sir, you are my guests now. Ask the maids to show you your room, I will go and check the document in my study. " Maxwell said and went upstairs.

Michelle nodded and went to find the maids, while Maxwell headed to his study room to check the document. When he arrived, he found the document and read through it carefully, discovering the truth about Mellisa's husband. He was the CEO Of Nidia's fourth company and the only son of Mike and Liala, the interesting part was that he was planning to make partnership with the William company. Maxwell was going to use this to his own advantage, he was going to make him pay for what he had done to Mellisa.

There was a question on his mind that he had no answer for; why was he helping Melissa? After his divorce from Tina, he had vowed to never get married again, but now he was planning to make Melissa his wife. Was it because of the child she was carrying, or pity, or even love? He was totally confused, but that wasn't going to stop him from marrying Melissa and doing his best to make her fall in love with him. Even if he doesn't love her back, he was determined to take care of her and fulfil all the duties of a husband to her, because she deserved more than that.
