The Bored Immortal

Chapter 242 - What Is Wrong With You?

"No…You are lying!" Linard immediately said with gritted teeth since he was damn sure Umilia was single all along and had never seen this man before all this time.

He would have known it already if she really had a husband. If he didn't, why would she hide the fact that she had a husband? It just didn't make sense, and he was sure Umilia wasn't lying all this time.

"No, he is not, Linard. I advise you to please leave and not create a scene. Trisha, please take care of him," Umilia had no choice but to ask his sister to bring him out of here for his own sake.

Trisha could feel all the stares landing on her brother and felt quite embarrassed even though she was not the center of attention.

She quickly grabbed his arm and pulled him, "Brother, come on. Let's go before things get worse."

Trisha wished she could just disappear from this place along with her brother since she doesn't want to be awkward around Umilia the next time she comes.

Linard felt as if his chest got struck multiple times hearing Umilia say to herself that she was really the wife of this random guy.

"B-But…when…." Linard asked with an expression of disbelief, still clinging to a small hope that Umilia would answer in the way he wanted to.

"Yesterday…Hmm, I would have sent you an invitation if it was not for the fact that we had a private and quiet marriage," Viktor said with a smile.

"Yesterday??" Linard felt as if the world around him was spinning while Trisha and the others were surprised that Umilia got married only yesterday, but she never said anything about it to them.

Umilia gave a side glance at Viktor, wondering what kind of nonsense he was feeding these guys. But then she thought this was the aptest way to deal with it since officially she had married him almost two dozens of centuries ago.

And only yesterday they finally reunited by being in the same world, and so it did make sense in some way.

"Congratulations, Umilia,"

"You should have told us, sigh…such a handsome husband, and we never knew,"

"Congrats, Umi. But it's a shame you didn't hold a wedding ceremony. We would have been happy to help you out,"

One by one, Umilia's students began to congratulate her since this was quite a big deal, especially since they knew that Umilia was single for a very long time despite being so kind and beautiful.

How could such a soul not have a soul mate, and only now have they got their answer.

Umilia felt a bit overwhelmed by the sudden wave of congratulations and thanked them all with a resplendent smile while also telling them that she would hold a small party later for her students.

"Umilia's husband, what is your name?"

"How old…Srry, I mean, where do you work?"

"Where are you from? You do not look like you are from around here."

"When did you guys meet?"

"How long have you guys been in a relationship? Oops, no need to answer if it's too annoying, tehee."

"Teacher Umi, congratulations! You finally got a cool husband! You really look so young and handsome!"

"So this was the emergency, huh? We didn't see that coming, but we should have known about it, hehe…"

Umilia's students and her friends among them crowded around her and Viktor as they asked this beautiful couple a lot of questions while Linard was pushed backward and forgotten.

Trisha was also curious for gossip and wanted to learn more about who this impossibly handsome was since even she couldn't help but get distracted whenever she looked at his face. It was just too charming!

Viktor had no idea he would be walking into this though he thought that he should have expected this if he were to barge into Umilia's yoga class suddenly.

Still, he and Umilia somehow answered their questions and satisfied their curiosity.

However, Linard felt as if his surroundings were getting blurry as the voices of the people around him began to fade. His pupils were dilating in and out while his breathing became hurried.

"Brother? Brother, are you okay?" Trisha worriedly asked as she somehow dragged her brother towards the stairs.

She noticed how pale her brother's face looked, and she could even see droplets of sweat on his forehead even though there was air conditioning in the corridor.

She felt that he must be feeling really hurt and heartbroken now since the woman he was chasing for so long had already been snatched by some other man, and to add to that, they even kissed right in front of her brother.

She felt that it must have been quite a traumatic experience for him, considering how badly he wanted to date Umilia. However, she could only sympathize with him, and there was not much she could do to help him now that things had come to this.

"She...didn't even have a...ring..."

Linard felt as if his throat was itching and a sudden feeling of thirstiness. He had never felt so thirsty before in his life and quickly searched for something in his pockets, only to have his eyes widened when he realized that the thing he was looking for was missing!

Red veins momentarily popped up in his neck, but he shook his head and squinted his eyes in and out as the red veins slowly disappeared.

"Brother? You are worrying me. Don't be so sad. I am sure you will find a good woman soon," Trisha could see that her brother seemed a bit out of it and was feeling worried about him.

Linard took a deep breath and swallowed his saliva as he frantically held Trisha's shoulders and said, "You…take a taxi and go home…I have to go someplace else…I forgot I had work…" Linard said as his tone sounded a bit weak yet heavy.

Trisha's brows furrowed together as she worriedly asked, "Brother, you don't look good. Maybe you should go to the hospital."

Linard waved his hands hurriedly, "Don't bother about it. I am fine."

"But brother—"

"I said I am FINE! Damn it!" Linard suddenly snapped as his eyes suddenly became bloodshot, scaring Trisha as she took a few steps back unconsciously.
