47 16. Teacher Rose?

Splash! Splash!

Layla stood at the front of the yacht's deck in a long-sleeves dress. She wore a big hat together with a sunglasses, matching her disguise as a tourist.

Last night, after booking a flight, she went on booking a ticket to a touring yacht club. She believes Adrian had power to tracking her whereabouts in no time. As an S-Level ex-mercenary himself, his connection still existed. With him being a CEO of the biggest company in country, getting information on her were not that hard. She also believe, he would be able to trace her back to this touring yacht.

In her trances, she looked blankly at the vast sea, breath out a sigh. Be it here in the country, or overseas, both lives were hers. A mercenary, and that man's wife. Allen once ask, it's that hard to accepted her status as Adrian's wife? Allen also swore that their marriage life filled with happiness. Adrian is a passionate and loyal man. It's hard to hear his scandals with other women before and after marriage. He both clean inside out, leaving his love only for her.

The time she went into coma, Adrian's lifestyle revolves around her alone, and in that hospital's VIP room, it becomes his second home since the day she got into accident (they still kept the secret about her got kidnapped and lost the child). He will stay in the hospital as soon as he finished his work, accompanying her. He ate, wash, sleep, and work in the hospital. And rarely went home. Mostly his daily necessity was brought over by the old butler.

Indeed, Layla saw the additional bed and wardrobe inside her room. Even after her awaken, the man still staying in the hospital. Only after some times coaxing plus, *cough*, threat, then the man went home.

Her left hand touched her ring finger that still adorned with the ring. She left everything in the car to escaped him, but she couldn't bring herself to put down the wedding ring. She hates to admit that her heart secretly yearns for his loves.

The days without him, she was so sure that it will be lonely and empty. However, there's another empty spot in her heart. As if she lost something important and precious. Her guts strongly said, they hides something from her.

Everyone said she got into car accident, but there's no news about it years ago. Or, they pressed the news from leaking? It's only a car accident...unless her comatose has nothing to do with a car accident.

But, what is it? Why they need to keep it secret from her? Are there any dangerous threat from the incident?

Once she arrived, the first thing she needs to do was to investigate her so called car accident. As for Allen and Fred, they're out of the trustees list. Hmph! Said that they're her friends, but still in complot with Adrian.

Layla scoffed, but inwardly smile. Well...Whatever.

While looking around the deck and the visitors, someone pats her shoulder from behind. Startled, Layla turned and saw a group of teenagers smiling at her.

She took a step back away, rendering them confused.

" Teacher Rose! You're awake?! Thank goodness! We're so worried about you!" One of the girl in the group rushed out and hug her, crying. Followed by the others, sniffing and crying while bear hugs with her.

Layla was so shocked that she couldn't process the situation she's in now. Teacher Rose?

She's a teacher?!

Layla's mind gone blank and her scalp turned numbs. What the hell is this about? Since when she become a teacher?!

" Wait...wait...this...who are you guys? Who's your teacher?" Layla pushed the first girl hugging her. The noises slowly turned to silence. They looked at her, unbelievable. They're teary eyes makes her unbearable, and her heart filled with guilty.

" We...we're your students. Teacher, do you forgotten us already?" the girl looked at her with hurt filled eyes.

" Teacher, you're in comatose for full two years. Don't tell us you lost your memories?" another girl asked out loud. Their shocked expression was genuine enough, meaning that they're not lying. Layla felt helpless.

Why Adrian didn't say anything about her being a teacher? She frowned, inwardly.

" We went to visits you, but was stopped by a group of bodyguards at the front door. Even your husband forbid us from visiting you. If not for Evan negotiated with him to let us visit for half an hour, we would never be able to see you at all. Your husband was so heartless and cold. That was the first and the last time we last saw you in ICU." A boy that taller than her complaining about Adrian behaving like an a*ss. Layla bit her inner cheek to stop her from laughing.

" Not only that, when we asks him what happened to you, he only answers us with a cold, sharp glares." Another boy rubs his hands, still chilling with that cold man's eyes.

" Yeah, teacher. How come you married that scary man? He was so cold and heartless. And we almost think that he's an abusive type of person." Another girl looked at her with a worried expression.

" Uhm...no, he's not." Layla scratch her head, unsure how to handle this situation. Looking at how awkward she was, they let the topic go. Married couple's live was not their concerns anyway.

One of the boy pat his palm with a fist, " Oh, by the way teacher. Evan also with us, but he saw a relative and goes to greets him."

Evan?

" Who's Evan?" She asked. This was the second time they talked about this Evan boy. Do he someone she know?

" Teacher Rose, you forgot about him also?" A girl asked, not knowing either to laugh or crying.

" Uh, yeah. I forgot many things." She laugh, awkwardly. This getting more complicated...Layla complained inwardly.

" I see. Looks like he doesn't know about you waking up. If not, he wouldn't coming with us for holiday. He's your nephew-in-law anyway."

Layla felt her scalp gone numb. Nephew-in-law?! Adrian's nephew?

Sh*it! She cursed, and had a feeling this Evan boy is not a good news for her.

Hide, she must hide from him!
