It All Started With Hatred-Chapter 211: Happiness and satisfaction

Petal had wanted to confirm that her health is getting better and that there was no problem with her body and the doctors had confirmed that. To do that, She used pens and paper to write her questions and concerns. It took a long time but it was worth it.

Since she woke up almost two weeks ago, Ethan was treating her as if she was made of glass and she might break at any moment. Sometimes he overdoes it until she feels that she is suffocating but then she reminds her to be patient and that he’s doing this because he cares for her.

Both had taken their fair share of suffering, Especially him, Who had to wait for her for two years with no hope or guarantee that she would wake up from the coma.

Lana had told her how he took care of her, All the rationality stuff, Wiped her body, Changed the sheets, Gave her medication through the IV drip, Everything, He did it all himself and didn’t let anybody touch her.

Petal wanted to stop thinking about the past and build a new life with him, A new page that has no regrets, Only giving back what she didn’t, Before, She was too selfish and took things for granted, Ethan was the only one who gives everything into this relationship but now things changed, God had given her a second chance to make up for her mistakes.

"I have something for you." Ethan said as he slipped his hand into his trousers pocket and took out a small red box.

Petal eyed the box in his hands feeling ashamed, He was going to give her another gift, and yet she hadn’t thought about bringing anything to him.

"I ordered for the ring to be remade two years ago, I hope I got the size right." Ethan added by opening the box.

Petal’s eyes widened seeing the ring, It was the same ring that she had thrown in the fire that day.

Tears found her eyes as she looked up at him with a sad smile on her lips, Petal just realized how foolish she was to not have given him the chance to explain himself.

Ethan reached to wipe her tears. He didn’t want her to cry. He wanted this moment to be a romantic one. Maybe he should have waited until he planned something better.

Maybe a romantic dinner where he would cook for her, But he is bad at cooking. He should play it safe and order dinner but right now, He had missed that chance.

Picking up her hand, He slowly slipped the two-piece ring on her finger but stopped midway and stared into her eyes.``I need your approval. Tell me that you want me to be your life again, Tell me that you want me, I promised you before that I won’t ever force you to do things you don’t want, So I need to be sure that this is what you want." Ethan said, Not forgetting his promise to her.

Ah! He’s still asking for her approval after all of it. She should just kiss him to prove it or what?

Well, She has no other way to prove it. With this thought, Petal cupped his face and pressed her lips on his, Kissing him in an unskilled manner before she pulled away telling him with unspoken words that her answer is YES!

A smile of happiness and satisfaction appeared on Ethan’s lips as he slipped the ring into her delicate finger, Claiming her as his once again, and forever.

Kissing her ring finger, Ethan peered down at her, She was so tiny wearing his coat and sitting on his lap, Cupping her face, He bent down and captured her lips with his into a passionate kiss where he parted her luscious lips, Pushing his tongue into her mouth tasting the sweetness that he missed.

Inside the car was quiet but the sound of kissing and deep breathing must have reached the driver’s ears, Luckily the window between the driver and them was closed because Ethan didn’t seem to be going to stop ravishing her lips soon, And finally after good five minutes of kissing, He let go of her lips

Petal blushed but didn’t look away, Ethan was the kind of man that you just can take your eyes off no matter how you try.

She glanced at her ring finger and then at his hand, Exactly at his ring finger the is empty, Now that she no longer keeping their relationship hidden she needs to make it obvious that he was her man and he is taken.

By the time they reached the cottage, it was already midnight, Ethan got out of the car first and helped Petal out. The place was surrounded by bodyguards, which was the first thing she noticed.

From the gate to the door of the cottage, The place was covered from every corner. Bodyguards were lined up armed with guns, Not daring to look in their direction and it made her wonder just how frightening Ethan was?

Because with her, He’s gentle and tender, Caring and loving. But because of his position and name he has to be a strict leader and has a frightening presence. Because in their dark world you have to strike fear in the enemies’ souls to be respected.

Petal understood that this was his world and she had accepted it.

"Is everything alright? You can’t walk?" Ethan asked, seeing how she stood there unmoving.

Petal shocked her head no and held into his hand tightly and started to walk towards the cottage.

She had chosen to live in this place because of the fond memories she shared with him here and because of all places she feels relaxed and safe, Plus this cottage has a nice view.

"I made a few changes and added security cameras around the house. I know you hate this but try to bear with it." Ethan said when they reached the door.
