Love Slave to the Mafia Boss's Passion

Chapter 387: Fated Reunion

It was still very difficult for me to believe that this was really happening. However, if that lady is really Amelia’s mother, then she wouldn’t be joking about something as serious as this, would she?

Hayden was already driving fast along the road when the Bluetooth of his car system began calling Harvey again. The line connected almost immediately.

"Where are you now?" Hayden asked with his eyes still focus on the road.

I had a feeling that this was going to be a ride filled with speed and thrills when Hayden took a sharp U-turn.

"On the way. If you speed, we’ll get there at roughly the same time," Harvey replied.

"See you soon. Try your best not to cry before you see her," Hayden teased before the line disconnected.

The car was already going fast but Hayden truly stepped harder on the accelerator. The ride to Amelia’s mansion passed by almost in silence with both Hayden and I wrapped up in our own thoughts. I didn’t want to talk to Hayden at the speed that he was driving because I wanted him to focus on the road ahead. This must be fate, for Amelia to wake up from her deep and long slumber on this day.

Something deep inside of me told me that things were about to change for the four of us.

When we arrived at the mansion, it seemed like the place was frozen in time. Nothing seemed to have changed about it including the vibe that I got the first time that I was there. Hayden quickly got out of the car before helping me out as well. I appreciated how beautiful this dress made me look, but at that moment, I wished that the skirt wasn’t so long or so heavy.

Unfortunately, there wasn’t anytime for me to change out of my wedding dress. Hayden helped carry my skirt once again as we made our way to the entrance of Amelia’s mansion.

Like the last time, the staff greeted us warmly; however, this time, the staff had an astonished and very confused look on her face. Regardless, she did not inquire why we were dressed like we had just gotten married. Upon Hayden’s request to be led to see Amelia, the staff understood immediately and led us to her room before leaving us alone.

"Where’s Harvey?" I asked in a whisper.

"He can find his own way here, don’t worry," Hayden replied calmly before he pushed the door to Amelia’s room opened.

I guess now wasn’t the time to worry about the staff and the confusion that she would undoubtedly feel to see another Hayden walk into the mansion after she had just greeted Hayden and me not so long ago.

Amelia wasn’t alone in the room when we entered. In fact, there was a man who was dressed in a doctor’s gown there along with a few nurses in their white uniforms. I gasped when I saw Amelia was sitting up in her bed instead of lying down like all the times that I’ve seen her before. She looked pale and weak, but even then, she still looked very composed and very beautiful.

Everything about her reminded me of a frail doll, and for a moment, I couldn’t stop staring at her.

Slowly, Amelia’s face turned to face us when she noticed that we had entered her room. Her tired face lit up into a bright smile when she saw Hayden.

"Hayden…" she whispered in a soft yet very angelic voice.

"Amelia…" Hayden whispered her name.

He was by the side of her bed in no time at all. It was a difficult scene for me to watch and my feelings were mixed. Although they were not lovers, it was clear that they shared a special connection. Amelia smiled sweetly at Hayden as he took her hands in between his. The two of them did not speak as if they could communicate without the use of words. Perhaps, they really could.

I stood to the side to give them some personal space while the doctor and the nurses did the same. The scene in front of me was very heartwarming. Amelia smiled although she seemed disorientated and confused while Hayden’s presence seemed to help calm and reassure her. He whispered something to her that I couldn’t hear, and her eyes widened as if in surprise.

"Harvey…" she said quite clearly before a single tear rolled down her cheek and she smiled.

At that moment, as if on cue, the door to her room opened with a slam and there stood Harvey. Hayden approached the Harvey immediately and yanked on his brother’s arm. I watched as Harvey was dragged towards Amelia’s bed. It seemed like he was too stunned to do anything right when he saw that Amelia had indeed regain consciousness.

"Harvey…" Amelia called his name before smiling sweetly at him.

"Amelia…you’re awake…" Harvey said as he clutched at her hand.

I guess it must have been hard for him to believe that his wish had finally been fulfilled. His Amelia was back with him at long last. Hayden came to stand by my side before he took my hand and smiled down at me. I guess we could communicate without speaking as well. I fully understood how he felt, and I shared his joy effortlessly as we watched the touching reunion between Amelia and Harvey.

"Sorry…for keeping you waiting…" Amelia apologized with her angelic smile.

Although she was crying and her face was tired, her smile was even more beautiful than any photo or any painting of her that I had seen before. Harvey pulled her gently into his arms and they embraced each other lovingly. I prayed that those two will never have to part like that again.

After having had their fill of their reunion, Amelia seemed to realize her surroundings again and her eyes fell on Hayden and then on me. She cocked her head to the side in curious wonder.

"That’s Hayden and that is Malissa, his wife," Harvey introduced us teasingly when he saw where Amelia was looking.
