Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything

After two hours of falling asleep on the anesthetic, Lisa woke up with blurry eyes and a foggy mind. She stared at the ceiling of the room with a confused face. Her consciousness slowly began to gather then she lifted her heavy head with difficulty.

Lisa looked around. She saw a familiar room. A king size bed with soft white sheets. The room was very large with a lamp hanging in the middle of its ceiling. A large, tall glass window covered with white curtains.

Seeing a room that looked strangely familiar made Lisa instantly wake up and shocked. Her eyes widened as she stared at the wardrobe and other furniture she had used.

"Where am I !? Wait... Why am I in this room... Why am I in Oscar's room!?" Lisa was surprised. As she remembered earlier, she was in the hospital accompanying her mother with Oscar and then accidentally spilled hot water on the man's hand. Then why was she in the room she used to live when she was married to Oscar?

Lisa got up from the bed then opened the door slowly. She peeked from the gap and saw the figure of a tall, slender man walking toward her room. Lisa then stepped back as the man pushed the door open slightly.

Lisa was surprised. Oscar was standing right in front of her with his expressionless face. The man grabbed her shoulder and said, "Lisa, you should just rest. The doctor told you to take medicine so that you will fully recover soon,"

Lisa closed her eyes trying to remember what happened to her before she ended up at her ex-husband's residence. She frowned as she tried to collect her messy memories.

'Doctor? Medicines? Recover? What happened to me? Oh... My stomach was hurt like it was being cut open…'

"Didn't I go to the hospital to accompany you?" Lisa asked, still confused.

"Yes, I took you to the obstetrician earlier. You are injected with anesthetics and other drugs to relieve pain in your womb. Take it easy, you will be fine," Oscar said, comforting Lisa's heart which seemed to be suffering from continuous pain.

"Oh, my womb is fine, right?" Lisa asked back, there was a little anxiety in her sentence.

"It's okay, the trauma recurred. Your womb will recover if you get plenty of rest and regularly take the medication the doctor gave you," Oscar explained as he led Lisa back to bed.

"But why am I at your house, Oscar? What about my mother !? Who is accompanying her!???" Lisa asked in panic. She remembered that her mother would at least be left alone.

"Calm down, I've asked Mrs. Rusminah to accompany her while you are recovering here. I've asked permission and goodbye to your mother and she agreed."

The man stroked Lisa's pale cheek. Even though she was sick, Lisa's face still looked pretty to his eyes. The man really couldn't get over her. For him, this woman had a very unique beauty that's second to none, making him unable to let her go and keep chasing her until now. But it wasn't only Lisa's beauty that made his heart hooked on her. There were also other things that kept him  chasing this olive-skinned woman.

"Why, Oscar?" Lisa asked curiously. "Why did you take me to your house?"

"Earlier, the doctor let you go home if you were awake. But you were not awake even after an hour, so the doctor immediately examined you again. They said your situation was getting better even though you hadn't woken up yet because of the anesthetic, so I brought you back here," Oscar explained bluntly.

"Why don't you take me to my boarding house!?" Lisa asked again. She still couldn't accept the reason Oscar took her to his mansion.

"Lisa, I don't want you living in that rickety shack while you're recovering! I will take care of you well here. Food will always be served at all times and your bed is very comfortable. You will definitely be happy here!" Oscar said, trying to convince Lisa.

"Oscar, I can't sleep in your house. We are not husband and wife anymore. Are you not afraid if your neighbors see me in your house?" Lisa asked anxiously.

"Screw them! I want to give the best for you! I want to make up for all my mistakes in the past that have made a deep wound on your heart," the man looked at Lisa with serious and honest eyes.

However, there was something that Oscar covered behind his explanation just now. Lisa wrinkled her forehead while looking closely at his blue eyes. "Oscar, I know you're hiding something, please don't lie to me,"

"I didn't lie, Lisa! I want to give the best for you!"

"It is not that. Why don't I just stay at the hospital?"

The question made Oscar's tongue choke. For a moment, he fell silent and unable to explain what was stuck in his heart right now. The man took a deep breath and then curled into the bed, lying next to Lisa.

Oscar stared deep into Lisa's dark eyes. "Lisa, I can't wait to get back to you. That's why I brought you here so we can start over from scratch,"

Hearing Oscar's words just now made Lisa both surprised and touched. That man really did marry her again and correct all his mistakes in the past. But Lisa didn't want to cause trouble living with her ex-husband!

"Oscar, I'm glad you kept your promise but. . . I still need time to heal these inner wounds. I was reluctant to get married because of our divorce! Please, understand my feelings…" Lisa explained softly.

"But Lisa, I don't want you to fall into the hands of other men!" Oscar exclaimed in an elevated tone.

"Oscar, you promised that you wouldn't force me or rush things yesterday in the car! Please give me a moment, my wound is still not healed!" Lisa replied defensively.

"Lisa, I love you..." The man brought his face close to hers so that the distance between their noses was only a few inches. He then brought his lips closer to Lisa's, but the woman immediately dodged it.

"I love you too, but don't be in a hurry okay? I'm just a human, I have the same feelings as you. Please give me some time. Don't worry, it doesn't mean that I don't love you. It was precisely because I love you that I have to prepare myself the best I can," Lisa put her index finger on Oscar's lips.

The man fell silent. His eyes darted down, trying to hide his disappointment. But he didn't want to hurt Lisa anymore so he tried not to rush her to the Civil Registry Office for reconciliation.

"Okay, I'm sorry.. I'm just happy to be back with you again."
