Tears Of A Wife novel Chapter 47

"A boy version of you. What do you want?" he asked me back.

I shook my head because I didn't know what to name our child. I haven't thought about it yet. "I don't know. Maybe, Dad wants to suggest it to my grandmother. Oliver's fine, too." I looked away.

"Yeah, right."

I heard his sigh. Minutes passed and silence enveloped us once again. I let the silence take over the space.

When the car turned to another way, my forehead creased. I immediately faced him. He was still serious as he drove the car, not even talking. I don't know what he's planning to do. We're taking a different road and it's far from Quezon City.

"Where are we going?" I couldn't help but to ask. "Atlas!" My voice raised when he didn't answer.

Atlas stopped the car. I was ready to breathe fire into his face when I saw his eyes. His eyes were pleading. Everything I wanted to say to him suddenly vanished.

"I'm sorry. I just wanted to bring you to a restaurant. I know, you're starving. Our baby's hungry too," he said.

I looked away. I suddenly felt shameful. My back straightened as I glanced at my wristwatch. It's already one in the afternoon. I'm hungry.

"Okay. Whatever you want," I muttered.

After a moment, we drove under the heat of the sun once more. I didn't complain anymore. I don't have the strength to. I just wanted a peace of mind and I could achieve it if I just avoided starting a fight with him.

"We're here," he said after parking the car.

I nodded in reply and glanced outside the window. What greeted me was a wide space from a private restaurant. It was a single type with only a wooden exterior. It was filled with hanging plants.

"Let's go," Atlas invited after he opened my door. I smiled at him and nodded. He guided me out of the car.
