Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO’s Plaything

"Yes, I also don't understand why my ex-husband has become nice to me recently. Even though he was a really cold person and didn't pay attention to me when he was still my husband! It's weird, why do I have to have an accident like this first just to make him nice to me? Don't you think so, Ndien?" Lisa asked while eating steak from Oscar.

Andien turned to Lisa, she tilted her head and looked at her friend with a surprised face. "Lis, I didn't hear wrong, right?"

Lisa responded to Andien by softly clearing her throat.

"You still have some feelings for your ex-husband, right, Lis? I really know from the way you spoke," Andien said, grinning mischievously. She poked Lisa's shoulder teasingly.

Lisa could only blush in response to Andien's words just now. Even she didn't understand why she still loved Oscar no matter how cruel he had been to her. It was as if fate had tied her life with Oscar, so wherever she went, Oscar would always chase her.

"Originally, I don't know how to explain it to you, Ndien. What's clear is that Oscar has been really good with me lately. Looks like he's trying to fix his old mistakes from the past," Lisa said, grinning.

"Actually, I still don't understand until now. It's the same reason you divorced Oscar. I mean, did you really have such a big problem that you wanted to divorce at that time?" Andien asked curiously. The woman leaned over and rested her chin on Lisa's bed. Her eyes were filled with high curiosity as she was looking at Lisa's face, which was slightly flushed from blushing.

"How am I supposed to know? I've forgotten about it. His ex-girlfriend from when he was studying in Sweden came to Indonesia again and got between us, so I couldn't stand it and asked for a divorce. And I also suspect that Oscar loved Clara much more than I at that time. Maybe he still does until now, but I don't know what Oscar's heart is like myself! He's really unpredictable," Lisa explained at length. She shuffled from her bed, staring at the ceiling of the room.

"Suppose you were given a second chance to improve your life with Oscar in the sense that you're about to start a new life with him. Do you want it or not?" Andien asked again. Her curiosity grew bigger.

Lisa snorted when she heard Andien's question just now. The woman rested her chin while staring at Andien's face, which looked very curious. "Isn't this a stale question, Ndien?"

"Yes, but who knows, Lis!? Nobody knows what's inside a person's heart right?" Andien replied firmly.

Lisa rolled her eyes with a sigh. "I understand but every time you ask me about it, I don't know what to answer. You see… if you ask now, the answer can be different if you ask a month or a year later…"

Lisa lowered her head and blinked, her facial expression became flat and a little sad. She sighed and then said, "I just don't want to be a homewrecker. I don't want to bother Oscar and Clara. I don't want to ruin their love relationship, Ndien…"

Hearing this, Andien's eyebrows knitted together. She brought her face closer to Lisa and said, "Lis! What do you mean ruining their love affair? If Oscar doesn't like you and prefers Clara, then why would he bother spending his money and energy helping you this far!? Don't try to guess for yourself just because Clara is Oscar's ex-girlfriend and you keep telling him to love Clara more," Andien explained at length. Her voice sounded steady.

"No, it can't be like that. He must be in love with Clara more than me!" Lisa insisted.

"And where the hell did you come with such a thought, Lis? Have you ever personally asked the person concerned? You never ask him, didn't you? And you just conclude with your own logic. To be honest, I don't understand how your logic works, Lis," Andien leaned her body with one hand on the bed while staring at Lisa's face that looked grim.

"Yes... I've never asked him directly..." Lisa replied softly. She twirled her index fingers.

"I knew it. If you've never asked the person in question, how could you be so sure?! Never mind, trust me. If Oscar doesn't love you, there is no way he would waste his time accompanying you at office hours almost every day!"

Lisa thought for a moment after hearing Andien's explanation. Come to think of it, Andien's explanation had a point. But Lisa still doubted whether she really loved Oscar herself or it was all an illusion made up by her own mind.

Lisa laid down again, staring at the ceiling, thinking. She closed her eyes, imagining if the golden haired man would invite her to reconcile one day. Lisa was not ready to accept if the handsome man with European blood asked for a reconciliation. Just imagining it made her heart flutter until she was short of breath.

Suddenly, Lisa woke up from her daydream and said to Andien, "Ndien! If Oscar comes, please don't tell him that my eyes are healed!"

Andien looked at her friend with a suspicious and confused look. "Why?"

"Please, please just don't! I beg you, Ndien. Pleaaase!"

"Ahaaa," Andien said, grinning mischievously. "I know, you want to pretend you're still blind so Oscar can treat you longer, right?"

"Shush! Don't you dare to say a word, Ndien! I have a plan, I want to test Oscar's loyalty to me, you know! Because of you, I'm curious about Oscar's feelings for me," Lisa replied irritably.

"Haha, okay, just relax. You can count on me!" Not long after, Andien said goodbye and left the hospital.

At the same time, the doctors who treated Lisa and Oscar took turns entering Lisa's room. The doctor examined Lisa's eyes and the back of her head carefully.

"Hmmm, the wound on the back of the head is not severe but it's still a bit painful," the doctor said spontaneously when he looked closely at the scar on the back of Lisa's head.

"What about her eyes, Doc? Has it returned to normal?" Oscar asked anxiously, his two hands rubbing together.

"The recovery is pretty good, the blood clot at the back of her eye is almost gone, there shouldn't be a problem. How about Miss Lisa? Can you see?" the Doctor asked Lisa.

Lisa just shook her head. "Still blurry but not bad,"

"I wonder how long it will take for her vision to return to normal, doc?" Oscar asked again, sounding even more anxious this time.

"It depends on the recovery ability of Miss Lisa's own body. I cannot predict, but I am sure that her eyes are not getting worse. That's a good sign," the doctor explained, putting his hands into his coat's pocket.

After the doctor left Lisa's room, Oscar sat beside Lisa's bed as usual, then opened a red box. He bought Lisa slices of Fuji apple for dessert.

Seeing the Fuji apple looking beautiful and appetizing made Lisa's eyes sparkle. She swallowed hard and then chuckled.

Oscar heard the chuckle suspiciously, as if Lisa was fooling him. "Why are you laughing?"
