Chapter 193: Disturbed Adrian

Katherine turned off the engine and looked at Adrian who leaned back on the passenger seat and closed his eyes. He looked so disturbed by the incident that happened at the company.

" Ad...we reached home. Let's go " she informed, placing her palm on his shoulder.

When they got out of the car, they noticed a red car in the guest's parking lot. They looked at each other's faces with questioning looks and he asked, " Who might be at this time!" 

" Let's go and check" Katherine replied and both of them walked hurriedly inside.

They were startled to see Steven and Ruby at their home. They didn't expect them at this time. Before they speak, Steven said, " We are waiting for you both"

Meanwhile, Maria came out of Sam's room and informed Adrian and Katherine, " They were waiting for one hour to meet you both".

" Oh…" Adrian said.

" How is the situation at the company and hospital! Do you know the reason for the accident! " Steven inquired.

" Accident! " Maria asked anxiously. 

" Mom...Please don't worry. Go and take some rest. We will talk tomorrow morning about this. I am so tired, " Adrian said.

Maria looked at Katherine's face doubtfully. Then she said, " Auntie...We will talk tomorrow please " 

" Okay then, " she walked towards her room.

" I think it's better to discuss this topic in the study room. I don't want Auntie to hear our discussion. It's not good if she is stressed at this age, " Katherine suggested.

" Kathie is correct." Ruby supported her.

Four of them went to Adrian's study room. They sat on the sofa in silence. 

" When do you get the information about the incident? " Adrian asked Steven.

" In the evening. By the time we reached your company, we came to know that you both went to visit victims and their families…" Steven answered.

" Any clue about the reason for the incident? " Steven asked immediately.

" No…"

" Still...I am in shock about the incident because we always take care of safety measures…" Adrian replied.

" Then it's better to wait till we get an investigation report from the police department," Steven replied.

" Yeah…" he sighed.

" If you want to cancel the deal between our two companies, I don't mind. First I want to solve issues with my employees, " he said to Steven.

" I am here to ask if you need any support from me in a friendly way. It's not my business visit " Steven replied sincerely.

" For now, I don't need any help from you. I am just worried about the injured employees and the two employees' deaths, " he told him.

" I can understand your situation. If you need any help from me, don't hesitate to ask, " Steven informed and stood up from the sofa.

" Kathie...Take care…" Ruby also stood up to leave.

" I have to leave Ruby at her home then I have to go to my place, " Steven and Ruby bid bye to them.

After they left the study room, Katherine said, " Let's go to our bedroom and get fresh. We need to go to our company early tomorrow morning " 

Adrian stood up from his place and moved towards her. He asked her to stay at home as the situation might be more severe than today. She understood what he was trying to say but she didn't want to agree with his words. She placed her palms on both sides of his face and said, " I took vows in our marriage in front of the Lord that I will be with you in all the times of good and bad. So I can't back off from my vows especially in the critical situation "

" Kathie...Try to understand…" he tried to explain but she pressed his lips with her finger looking into his eyes and stopped him to speak further.

" Not one more word. I am coming with you tomorrow, " she said firmly.

She hold his hand and gave him assuring smile then said, " Everything will be alright"

They slowly walked to their bedroom. She went to take a bath whereas he stood at the glass window. The cries of the people in the hospital were running in his mind. She quickly came out of the bathroom and changed into the nightdress. 

" Ad….Go and take shower. I will be back in fifteen minutes.." she informed him and handed him his robe. She waited till he went to the bathroom then she stepped out of the room.

She went to the kitchen and instructed them to prepare chicken soup and sandwiches for them. Then she walked to Sam's bedroom and found him sleeping deeply.

She sat beside him for a few minutes then went to the kitchen. She served the soup in the bowl and sandwiches on the plate. She arranged them on the tray and took them to their bedroom. 

When she entered the bedroom, she saw his face. She knew that he was still thinking about the incident. And also she could understand that it is not so easy to handle the situation. But she wanted her husband to be strong to face the challenge.

She walked towards him and placed the tray on the nightstand. She sat beside him and took a bowl of soup in her hand. She dipped the spoon in the soup then placed it in front of his mouth to sip it.

" Have it ...Ad " she said in a soft voice 

" How can I eat Kathie? Two men were dead in the fire accident and my employees were suffering in the hospital, " He asked in a broken state.

" It was an accident. It's not your fault " she tried to console him.

" But it happened when they were working in my company, " he said.

" It's true. We can't change what happened. But you can help their families only when you are strong. You can be strong and supportive for them when you take food in time and take some rest, " she suggested.

" First open your mouth…" she said in a strict tone as if she was talking with little Sam.

" Kathie...I have no mood to eat " he replied.

" I too have no mood but still I want to eat. If we get sick then who will take care of our employees!! Huh! " She asked, raising her eyebrows.

" Be like my big good boy…" she said and moved the spoon in her hand close to his lips.

He opened his mouth to have the soup. She fed the soup then gave a plate of sandwiches to him. Then they have their food.

Once they had dinner, she took the tray and kept it in the kitchen. She noticed him in the same mood. She went towards him and said, " Ad...I am sleepy. Let's sleep…" 

He laid straight on the bed while looking at the ceiling. She kept her head and his chest and placed her hands around his torso. She wanted to divert his mind so she got an idea in her mind.

" Ad...I am feeling so cold. Shall we have some wine? " She asked him.

All of a sudden, he turned his head and looked at her strangely. As far as he knew she doesn't take wine willingly.

" Please...Ad…" she requested, pouting her lips.

" Okay. I will bring a wine bottle..." He stood up from the bed.

After a few minutes, he returned with a bottle and two glasses. He served the wine and gave one glass to her. She smiled and said, " Thank you".

She knew that if he takes wine then his mind will release some stress in his mind then only he could sleep tonight. She sipped only half a glass of wine whereas he completed two glasses of wine. When he was third glass, she stopped him and dragged him to bed.

Once she laid on the bed, she signaled him to place his head on her chest. He nodded his head like an obedient boy and placed his head on his soft pillows. He covered both with the quilt and closed his eyes. She slowly stroked his hair while massaging his scalp.

" Kathie … I don't know what is going to happen tomorrow," he said.

" Whatever happens, I am with you. Don't think about tomorrow. Live this moment with me..." she informed and kissed his forehead.

" I love you...buttercup " saying he cuddled her tightly.

" I love you too...Ad. Sleep now…" she said and closed her eyes.

....

The weather outside was so cold. Both of them were in deep sleep. 

Still, the city was in sleep, Katherine's mobile started ringing. Her eyelids were fluttering with the sound but could not open her eyes as she was feeling sleepy. 

Finally, she opened her eyes and attended the call so that there would be no disturbance to Adrian's sleep. 

" Kathie...it's me. .Steven…" she heard his voice.

" Steven!! " She exclaimed when she saw the time. It was early in the morning, five.

" Why are you calling me at this time! " She inquired.

" I am standing outside your home. Open the door. I need to talk with you. It's important. Please. …" He informed and ended the call.

She noticed Adrian was still sleeping on her chest. She carefully placed his head on the pillow and stood up from the bed.. She wore a long fur coat over her body and walked out of their bedroom.
