WIFE CONTRACT DEBT REDEEMER
Hopeful

I don't know how long I've been walking without direction or purpose. My eyes were empty as if I had lost hope. I could not feel the cold coming down on my body, just wearing an ill-fitting piece of clothing, I trudged down the dark streets in the silent blind night. I don't feel any pain in my body right now. As if all were numb, I felt nothing but nothing but nothingness. Yes, my heart is empty and feels empty. Everything that happened today was like my worst nightmare. Everything was so fast and I still can't understand. Until now I still hope if this is a dream and I will wake up and will not remember it again. But alas, all of this is real and is really happening.

The humiliation, the abuse, the slander and the abuse I just experienced. Angelina Louis, could it be that your life is this way? I smiled bitterly at the bad luck I had. With my situation like this, then why am I living again? Now my steps are stopped on a bridge, where in front of me is a river that looks so beautiful on this blind night. It was my desire to end it all with a shortcut. But I am not a coward. I'm not alone right now, there's a potential life I'm supposed to protect.

God, if you're still with me. Please give me great heart and also the strength to be able to accept all the bad luck that has happened to me. I'm sincere if this has become my path. However, no matter how strong I am, I am still an ordinary human being. I'd be willing if I had to die now, at least I'm not a coward. Even though I tried to be strong and persevere, still my body could no longer bear all the burdens I felt.

To my future son, forgive me, son. I can't protect you. We see is there still a beam of light for us now? I smiled bitterly, my tears just shed without being asked. I'mtired. Yeah, I'm so tired.

Bruk!!

A woman collapsed on the side of a bridge on a dark, silent street in the cold night. Not long after a car stopped nearby. A tall man with his athletic body that looks manly. Axel Campbell, he was the man who since last night was watching the woman who was none other than Angelina Louis. Axel got out of his car, staring at the fragile body figure that looked so pitiful now.

“At a time like this, you still survive and do not choose to come to me. You're an amazing woman, Angelina.” Axel said softly staring sympathetically at Angelina who is now fainted with a sad state.

Axel hugs Angelina's fragile body into his car and takes her away from the place.

...

Axel Campbell takes Angelina Louis to a place where Angelina gets the best care. In addition to providing a comfortable place, Axel also invited the best doctors to examine and treat Angelina. He had indeed long prepared everything to deal with the situation he had predicted from the beginning.

Yes, Axel Campbell had already guessed if this would happen to Angelina. It turns out his thinking was not wrong. Previously Axel was only a spectator, but not for now. Now is his turn. Angelina Louis now belongs to Henry Bastian Campbell.

“How is he doing now? Is the content problematic?” Axel asked a doctor who had just finished examining Angelina.

“For the moment he's fine. So too with its content. She is a strong woman, it is very rare for women who are in a young pregnancy to survive the situation they have just experienced. However, in the future I suggest that he better keep his womb carefully,” the doctor explained at length.

“Thank God, can I make sure he will be safe with me,” Axel replied firmly.

After the doctor left, Axel approached Angelina who was still unconscious in bed. Axel could see Angelina's condition was better than before. Although the beautiful face still looks pale, but Angelina looks much better than before. The rubbing of Angelina's face with one hand, Axel's gaze looks thoroughly observed inch by inch the beautiful face that had attracted her from the beginning.

“You poor lucky woman, Angelina Louis. Henry dumped you like shit. However, I can make sure someday he will regret having thrown you so valuable like this,” said Axel lirih.

After I opened my eyes completely, I realized that I was now lying in a bed in a room with foreign-looking decorations. Why am I here? I thought I was dead now but I was wrong, I was alive and I was in a strange place I didn't know where.

“You're awake, Angelina?” an unexpected person came in and came up to me with his bright smile that looked handsome.

“You? Are you the one who helped me and brought me here?” I asked to make sure.

“Why don't you like me coming to help you?” Axel raised the corner of his lips in his relaxed style.

“No, no. I mean, how can you help me?” many confused.

“You asked why? Do you think I'd be quiet to see a pregnant woman pass out in the middle of the night blind on the street, do you?” saith.

I bowed weakly remembering it back, “Thank you. I owe you, Mr. Axel Campbell,” my sincere words.

“Call me by my name, Axel. It was better,” Axel's pinta while smiling soothingly, the first smile I've seen as long as I've known him.

“You and your gynecologist are fine. You don't have to worry. Now you're safe with me,” Axel said.

I choked right then and ventured to ask in a slightly nervous voice, “A - do you already know everything?”

“Ya, of course I already know everything,” Axel replied straightforwardly.

I was silent, with various questions that came to my mind.

“I know what you're thinking, Angelina. Maybe it's still too complicated for you, but I can make sure you're safe with me now. You need to know, even though we're brothers. Henry and I are different,” he said firmly.

“We're divorced, he's divorced me,” I said.

Axel snorted, “Isn't that good? You are free now, and that also means I will be able to marry you, Angelina,”.

In that instant I was also shocked to death.

“A-what do you mean?? Marry??”
