Unexpected Encounter:They Were Meant To Be Together

"Well, I mean that she is with us now so she is in safe hands." Ming quickly covered up her words.

Singtan sighed and nodded his head, "That is true but I am not talking about that."

Snuggling closer, Ming nodded her head, "But I guess she will be fine."

Kissing the top of her head, he nodded his head, "Hmm but you don't worry about anything okay? I'll take care of it."

"Yeah and then you will bully my sons."

"I never bully them, it's not my fault that they are so dumb."

…..

Kathy's apartment.

Looking at the ingredients that he bought from the supermarket to prepare a soup for her, Liang frowned. He did know how to cook but he always chose to stay far away from it.

Thinking for quite sometime, he took out his phone and called his saviour, his mother.

"Hey honey is everything alright?" Yixi asked.

"Yes mom I just—I hope I did not disturb you." Liang asked.

"It's 1:00 am so of course you did," Yutang shouted.

Ignoring his father's rants, Liang started asking her various question about what kind of soup should a sick person drink.

"What? Are you sick? Do you have fever? Your dad and I come—"

Cutting her off, Liang explained, "No mom, I am fine."

"Then what are you talking about?"

"Hmm my friend is sick so I am making some soup for her."

Yixi smiled and asked, "Friend or girl—"

"Friend mom, only friend." He was emphasizing on the word 'FRIEND' so much that it made him wonder if Kathy was really just a 'FRIEND' to him.

"Hmm so your friend, is she a woman?"

"Yes, now will you please tell me what am I supposed to do?" He asked.

"Okay so go to the shelf and open the third—"

Cutting her off he explained, "I am not in my place so you can just name the thing and I can look for it."

"Ahh so you are at her place? That is—"

"Mom—"

Yixi chuckled and sighed, "Alright, I won't tease you anymore."

…..

Inside Kathy's room.

After making the soup according to his mother's instructions, Liang slowly woke Kathy up.

"Hey, get up for a bit and drink this before taking the medicine." Sitting beside her, he started feeding her the soup carefully.

"I don't feel like drinking it," Kathy complained.

"No, you have to," He insisted.

After reluctantly finishing the whole bowl under his supervision, Kathy sighed and slumped on the bed.

Picking up the tray, Liang was about to leave when she caught his shelves. "Y-You are leaving?"

"I am going to the kitchen, why? Do you need something?" When she shook her head, he left.

After a few minutes, he came back along with the meds and a glass of warm water. Sitting down beside her, he gave her the medicine and tucked her inside the quilt.

Caressing her head, he smiled, "Take some rest."

"Liang."

"Hmm."

"Will you stay with me tonight?" She asked.

"Okay now sleep, I am right here."

Wrapping her arms around his waist, she placed her head on his chest and slowly closed her eyes.

Completely taken aback by her sudden action, Liang quickly composed himself and wrapped his arms around her before pulling her closer.

Pressing his lips on her forehead, he smiled, "Goodnight Kathy."

…..

Next day.

Hospital

"So mom said that you'll have to drink the entire thing because aunt Ming strictly instructed her that this will help in boosting your immune system," Ben explained before pouring some soup for her.

"Your mom was here?" Clara asked.

"Hmm, she was here to visit you and she also brought the soup but since you were sleeping, she told me not to disturb you and she would come later."

Chewing her bottom lip in nervousness, she hesitantly asked, "Your family they—"

Pinching her nose, he smiled, "You don't have to worry about them at all. In fact, they are very excited to meet you and I am a hundred percent sure that a whole bunch of them will visit you today so be prepared to see many new faces."

Placing her hand on his, she said, "Ben about Philip, we—I mean Philip and I—"

Cutting her off, he added, "I know you both never got married."

Lowering her head, Clara pursed her lips. "I am sorry that I lied to you."

Lifting her chin up, he frowned, "You don't have to say sorry for anything honey, everything is in the past now and our relationship has already suffered enough so let's leave everything behind and start a new life."

"I am sorry to disturb your reunion time but you gotta check this article," passing his phone to Ben, Sam sat down on the edge of the bed.

Taking the phone from Ben's hand when Clara read the article, she took a deep breath and sighed.

"I never thought Philip would do this but he surprisingly did." Sam added.

…..

Kathy's place.

Snuggling against his chest, Kathy slowly opened her eyes and smiled when she saw Liang.

Not wanting to disturb his sleep as she knew that he barely slept last night because he kept checking her temperature, she slowly wiggled out of his embrace.

As she was about to get down from the bed, Liang caught her arm. "Where are you going?"

"Office."

"Seriously? Are you out of your mind?" He frowned.

"Hmm but it's important and I feel better now," she insisted.

"No, you are taking a rest today and don't worry about work because I have already asked someone to take care of it."

"But—"

"Don't argue with me over this Kathy, I can't let you work when you are sick."

Though it was very difficult to persuade her, Kathy felt helpless in front of him so she could only nod her head and listen to whatever he wanted her to do.

"I wanted to finish off everything today so that I can fly over tomorrow but—"

"Why do you have to go there even though you are sick? Can't you just skip?" He asked.

"No I can't skip."

Pausing for a while, he frowned, "So is that special someone so important?"
