Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 668 Nightmare

"Hyson?"

Both Raelle and Shui Xian didn't expect to see him right now. Anyone but him. He wasn't even in the same province since they both last heard from him.

Currently, Hyson was panting heavily and when he looked at Raelle sitting on the hospital bed, looking at him with that all too familiar gaze of hers, he finally heaved a sigh. As if a string broke and his body slumped against the door. He was suddenly all too weak.

Sweat was dripping down his face. He was actually wearing slacks with a simple t-shirt. So not look like an idol with his disheveled state. His hair was messed up, probably from running his fingers through them way too many times.

Shui Xian stood up and went over to Hyson. He held his arm to support him and helped him to sit down on a chair as he asked, "What happened to you?" He poured some water and offered it to Hyson.

Hyson shook his head at him while taking the glass of water from him. He was so breathless that he couldn't even speak properly right now. And seeing him gulping down water, Shui Xian seemed to have understood something. He sighed mentally but didn't urge Hyson to give an answer.

As for how Hyson suddenly appeared in Raelle's hospital ward...

It all started last night. Hyson had indeed gone to sleep once he hung up the call with Raelle. And it didn't even take him long to fall into the dreamland as well.

However, the nightmare that had been haunting him for weeks became worse.

For the last week, in his dream, he only saw the scene of his very first meeting with Raelle. The difference was that this time on the same street they stood in front of each other as adults, not kids. But he was still like the kid who lost his way and she was still like the angel that sparkled way too brightly.

Seemingly, there was nothing wrong with this dream but he still called it a nightmare because it left an unsettling feeling in his heart. And also because no matter how much he loved having Raelle in his life, he never really like the state in which they met. Raelle was hurt back then and all alone in a foreign place. No, it was a completely foreign country to her because it was her very first time there.

He had been trying to forget that dream but he wasn't able to do so.

But last night, the same dream took a turn. Raelle was still wearing the same white dress as she did when they met for the first time and this time, her white dress was stained in blood all over again. Not just that, she stood in the puddle of blood that scared him so much that he woke up.

"That was just a dream," he told himself at that time but he wasn't able to convince either his mind or his heart.

In the end, he dialed Raelle's number but the call didn't go through. This took Hyson off guard. He couldn't believe it. How could the call not go through? But trying to stay hopeful and optimistic, he calmed his heart and decided to wait for a while. And while he was waiting, he ended up doing push-ups, sit-ups, and any other exercise he could do in his suite room just to distract his mind.

Needless to say, it didn't really help. He took a shower and tried calling Raelle once again. But the call was still not connected. He tried calling Shui Xian considering how he always seemed to cling to his wife, but he couldn't contact Shui Xian either. It was at the time when Shui Xian was still on the flight himself. As if heaven was playing a joke with him, the scene of Raelle's blood-stained white gown flashed through his mind and chilled his heart.

And whatever thoughts were keeping him rational flew out the window.

He picked up his passport, phone, and wallet and ran out of the suite room. The door beside him also opened and his Manager looked at him, "Are you okay? Your room's light has been on at this hour. What's up?"

Seeing how Hyson seemed ready to go somewhere, she frowned and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Sister Li, I have to go home," said Hyson.

"Huh? No, you can't! What about your schedule?"

"I don't care!" was Hyson's response. "All I know is that I have to go back right now."

Not even for a minute did he stop to analyze the situation again or try contacting anyone else to find out about Raelle's condition. No, wait! He did call. He called Shui House and found out that both Shui Xian and Raelle weren't around. That only strengthened his belief that something was wrong because it was 3 in the morning. There was no way his best friend would stay out of house at this hour!

Taking a flight back home at the earliest, he came back. As soon as he landed, he did try to call Raelle again but the call was still not connected. He tried calling Shui Xian but he wasn't able to call him either. Again!

"Urgh!" He was frustrated.

As the last resort, he called Cloe. "Where is Raelle?"

Cloe hmmed and haa-ed, not knowing how to reply. Her boss told her not to tell anyone.

"Cloe!" Hyson's voice didn't sound like the usual pleasant one. It was hard and had a darker touch to it. "Tell me where she is!"

Cloe resigned herself to her fate and gave him the hospital's address. And that's how Hyson ended up appearing in Raelle's ward before anyone else. It was his nightmare that guided him here but he wished he never had such a dream.

When he noticed a tear still hanging on the long eyelashes of Raelle, he ended up crying himself, startling Shui Xian who had been observing him all this while.
