Serving a Paralyzed Wife
35. A Banquet or Meeting?

In the past, parties were no big deal to Glacia. But now it seemed different, Glacia really hated the party, because there she would meet so many people. Of course there will be more pairs of eyes that look at him pity, or even scorn.

Last week Narendra and John had already told him about the company celebration. And John warned Glacia to keep coming, even though Narendra himself was not so pushy.

Not without reason John said so, in previous events Narendra also often came alone without a wife. The public knew the man was married. Maybe this time John wants Narendra to look perfect in front of the media, as well as dismiss the sad figure after the news of the affair carried out by Glacia.

"You okay?" Narendra turned to Glacia who was sitting next to him. They were still in the car after a second and arrived in front of the building.

Glacia tried to nod even though she quietly swallowed. Both of his hands were sweating coldly. Really, after the condition of his legs is no longer perfect, Glacia really lost half of confidence. He often felt depressed being among the sea of people.

"If you feel any objection, Julian can take you home" Narendra continued.

Glacia suddenly shook her head. "I'm doing fine. Just ... a little less comfortable," he said slowly. It's ridiculous that Glacia would choose to go home. He had dressed up in such a way, then lost to the shrinking courage.

Narendra looked at Glacia fixedly. The wife seemed to be trying to calm down since. Narendra realized it all because he was paying attention.

"Then we go out. Take it easy, you just need to stay by my side."

Glacia resigned herself when the door beside her opened. Narendra got off first, while Julian took a wheelchair in the trunk.

Narendra held Glacia and sat the woman in her wheelchair. It was then that the light lightning greeted them simultaneously. Dozens of cameras came up as Glacia stared ahead.

The boisterous atmosphere made Glacia pause for a moment. He was surprised, undeniably now his hands shook violently. However it was only for a moment, before he felt Narendra bent over clasping his hands from behind.

The man whispered beside Glacia's ear. "Rilex. Be the old Glacia, the party-loving Glacia and lift her chin when walking."

Narendra looked up at the media in front. He smiled while still embracing Glacia who was now stuck with his words.

Before long Glacia also raised her head to look at the camera, and in that second also the corner of her lips lifted up to smile.

The moment was perpetuated by the news hunters there. The two seem to be in harmony as a couple, having previously been hit by the issue of infidelity.

Without Glacia noticing, there was a moment where Narendra turned to her, looking at her fixedly with her heartfelt warm highlight.

If Glacia had known, Narendra had been waiting for this to happen a long time ago.

Narendra takes Glacia into the building where the event is held. The atmosphere of the ballroom was already crowded by the invited guests. Narendra could see John in the middle of the room talking to some colleagues.

"Oh my God, Glacy. Papa it's nice for you to come, son," said John giving a hug.

Glacia returned her father's embrace. Narendra smiled slightly standing behind him. Some colleagues there also greeted Glacia and Narendra who had just arrived. But the thing that Glacia was afraid of happened, most of them looked at him with pity, even blatantly making Glacia feel inferior.

Samar Glacia felt a soft squeeze on her shoulder. He knew Narendra was secretly trying to calm him down. But whatever the power, no matter how hard Glacia tried, he still could not control his inferiority among people.

"It's your daughter who was in an accident last time, right?" One of the colleagues there asked John.

John smiled stiffly. He then confirmed with his wise face. "True, now he's in regular therapy."

"I hear her spinal nerves are damaged? You have to be careful, it's very dangerous because it says the damage can spread to cause permanent paralysis."

The atmosphere was suddenly uncomfortable because of the conversation. In his heart John tried to remain calm and refrain from cursing. While Glacia herself had looked down at the link of her squeezing hands together.

Glacia's heart beat faster until a moment of tightness came crashing into the chest. Glacia tried to relax as dizziness slowly approached. Only Narendra survives in a calm and hard-to-influence attitude.

"Thank you for your concern. We're trying to do the best treatment with the best doctors." Narendra spoke in a calm voice.

The colleagues also smiled blandly. They nodded and chose to retreat from the circle, then joined the other circle.

It was undeniable that Glacia was feeling sad. How God can turn things around quickly. Glacia used to get used to all the praise, and now all that was lost changed a look of low disdain.

John rubbed the top of Glacia's head carefully. "Don't think much. You must be cured after the therapy program is completed," he said calmly. "And when that time comes, you can only repay them with pride."

It seems John was upset too. It could be that the entrepreneurs are talking about people's health instead of business and stocks.

Glacia did not answer. He was still faithful to silence until the arrival of someone again took away attention.

"Glacy's? You came too?" Lizy's soft voice greeted her ears.

Glacia. Sure enough, the woman was smiling kindly towards him. But what attracted Glacia was the existence of Rafael who also threw a smile at him.

"Hello, we meet again."
