AshleySwift13 : I really hope you like this chapter ^^
It was 11 o' clock and Cornelia was lying alone in her bed, she was thinking about how changed her husband was, suddenly the door opened and Caleb came in.
"Hey"
"I thought you were sleeping" said Caleb making his way to his side.
"I wanted to speak with so I waited…"
"Mmmmmm can we talk later? please I'm really tired" he said yawning
"It's important"
"I know, we'll talk tomorrow morning before I left to the work, ok?"
"Ok" she said knowing that she wasn't going to make him talk.
"Good night" He kissed her check and then he fell asleep.
"Good night" she said more for herself than for him.
She knew that that was going to happen, it was always the same thing with Caleb, he was busy, tired, …he never had time for her, he didn't care about her, and now that she was pregnant, what if he doesn´t care about the baby either?. She decided that it was better to sleep now and she dreamed with a little baby in her arms.
The next morning
Cornelia woke up and noticed that Caleb wasn't there, again.
Really? I told him that this was important! She thought a little upset.
Flashback
"I want you to promise me that you are going to make mi little girl happy" said Harold Hale
"I promise you that the only thing in my mind will always be make her happy " said a smiling Caleb
"I want you to visit us often, I know that Meridian isn't near but with a fold you can fix it, can't you?" said Lillian
"Yes we can and we're going to come as often as possible, but first we want to tell you that we are not going to marry in a church" said Cornelia
"Why?" Elizabeth Hale asked
"You know that I don't really have a religion and neither does Caleb" said Cornelia calmly
"If it isn't in a church…. Where are you going to marry?" asked her mother
"We're getting marry in a civil ceremony here, and in Meridian's traditional rite, I hope you're not angry"
"Obviously not sweetheart if that is what you want and it makes you happy is ok for us" said Harold before Elizabeth could said something
"Thanks"
"And Caleb welcome to our family" said Harold who embraced him like a son
"Thank you" said Caleb.
END FLASHBACK
I don't want to think about it anymore -at that moment her stomach growled –I think we're hungry. She caressed her stomach and walked to the kitchen.
Caleb and Cornelia's house was more a mansion than a house, it has three floors, a pool, a lake, a garden around the house,... and the most important: it was near to Ely's castle. Most of the time Cornelia was in the castle working with Ely, her job involved helping to create new employments and establishing the wages, she had an office in the castle and she was really good in her job, with the time all the servants liked her and treated her with respect.
When Cornelia arrived to the kitchen she found Mira, one of her two maids, making the breakfast.
"Good morning Mira" said Cornelia smiling at her
"Good morning Mrs." She said doing a reverence
"You know ,that isn't necessary " Cornelia said with a frown.
"I'm sorry Mrs. Is just that you are like a Duchess and I must treat you with respect" Cornelia was going to argue but something came to her mind
"Do you know at what time Caleb left?"
"About an hour ago, I'm going to serve you the breakfast" Mira said as she took the plate
"Let me help you" Said Cornelia taking the plate in her hands but at that moment a little dizziness came to her and the plate fell to the ground.
"I'm sorry" said Cornelia as she took her head in her hands
"Are you ok?" said Mira looking at Cornelia with concern
"Yes, it was just a little dizziness"
"A dizziness….Hey don't do that!" Mira said because Cornelia was collecting the pieces of the plate in her hands.
" O fu…." Cornelia was saying but Mira stopped her.
"Don't say bad words, look what you have done, you're bleeding!...come here let me help you"
Mira took Cornelia's hands under the water and dry her wound, after that she bandaged her hand.
"Thanks" said Cornelia with a little smile
"No problem, but you have to take care of yourself girl! Look, now I have to prepare the breakfast again!"Mira and Cornelia started to laugh.
IN THE CASTLE
"Your majesty, this are the plans we have made in case of an attack as you wished" said Caleb giving a ton of papers to Ely.
"Thanks and Caleb you don't have to call me "Your majesty" just Elyon is ok" she said smiling
"But Your…"
"Caleb.."
"Ok Elyon, do you need something more?" he asked ready to leave
"No thanks" Caleb was leaving but Ely remembered something
"Caleb wait" she shouted
"Yes?"
"What did Cornelia told you yesterday?"
"What about?"
"Just think, is something important "
"No she didn't tell me anything yesterday, Elyon what is going on? Is she okay? , does she need something and she doesn't want to tell me?" Caleb said with concern
Your attention Ely thought
"No, nothing, don't worry about it, I think she's going to tell you soon"
"Elyon I know your lying, where is Cornelia? I just remembered that we were supposed to talk this morning" Caleb said looking around.
"She hasn't come, Mira said she was feeling sick" Elyon was analyzing his reaction.
"What? Why she didn't tell me she felt sick?"
"Do you want to go and see her?" Ely asked hopping a "yes"
"Later, I have to work" He said looking at the ground
"But ….."
"It's ok Elyon I'm going to see her as soon as I finish my work" and then he left.
I can't believe what you have said Caleb, after everything Cornelia left for you? if there is something I'm not going to let happen is that my godson has to support this. I can feel you love her but, why is your job more important than your wife? Ely thought as she was making her way to go and see her best friend.
CALEB'S POV
I can't forget what Elyon told me this morning, I don't want Cornelia to be sick I don't want her to feel bad or sad, I want her to be happy….I know I'm not spending a lot of time with her lately but I promised her that I was going to give her the life she deserves and if that means that I have to work more to give her that life I'm going to do it, even if I can't spend the time I want with her, I 'm sure she understands that, and besides, she's working and busy too. I'm going to see her tonight, is incredible how the idea of see her makes my heart beats faster, well I'm going to work hard because I know that if I do it I'll be able to be at home early and spend more time with my angel.
So, what do you think?Let a review and let me know it ^^
