Chapter 189 - Realisation

Inside Matt's office.

When Lisa entered the office, all the things from Matts desk were scattered all over the floor. The glass, his laptop, the table lamb were broken into tiny pieces.

Looking around when Lisa saw Matt sitting on the floor with his legs crossed in a daze, she sighed.

Picking up the Bella's invitation card from the floor, Lisa started walking towards her boss.

Squatting down, Lisa said," Forgive me in advance boss."

Pausing for a while, Lisa said," She stayed by your side for five years but you never treasured her but now when she finally decided to give herself some face and give up on you, what right do you have to behave like this? Since she is moving on in life, I am happy for her. And even you shouldn't be like this. You should be happy and give her and her would be husband your blessings. And why are you doing all this? Geez it's not like you love her or you have feelings for her. So stop being a kid and get ready, you have a meeting in fifteen minutes." before placing the card on Matts lap.

" I'll take my leave now sir." Lisa said before walking out.

Picking up the card, Matt thought for a while before opening it.

~Mark Carnal weds Bella Watson~

Matt's world turned upside down when he read that line. 

Tightening his grip around the card, Matt closed his eyes. 

Pain and only pain. Yes that is what Matt felt after reading that particular line. It felt like someone ripped his heart straight from his chest and then tossed it aside.

This pain was much stronger and more unbearable than the pain he had felt when Ella had died. 

From the day Bella left him till date, Matt had felt nothing but pain and loneliness. 

If he had never loved her, why was he feeling so miserable? 

If he did not have any feelings for her, why was his heart aching and longing for her?"

Is it because he loved her just like she loved him? 

Matt quickly got up when a strange kind of feeling crept throughout his body.

Yes, he loved Bella. He loved her more than anything in this world. But when did he start loving her? And why didn't he realise it earlier? 

Matt grabbed his hair and groaned in frustration. He was really stupid, a dickhead. How could he let her go so easily? How could he let her marry a octopus-like person? How could he make her cry so much? 

Matt quickly composed himself and grabbed his keys. He had to see Bella and stop her. He had to tell her how much he loved her. The one whom she should marry was him and not some octopus-like man whom she had no feelings for.

As he was about to step out of the office, he received a call from his grandfather's assistant.

" Young master." The assistant said.

" What happened?" Matt asked.

" Master met with an accident and is in a very critical condition and madam fainted after hearing the news. Things are very serious right now and you presence is needed." The assistant said.

Matt froze when he heard that," What? Why didn't you tell me about this earlier? Hold on, I am coming there. Where are you all right now?" 

" We are in Los Angeles right now." The assistant said.

" Okay, I'll fly over right now." Matt said before hanging up the call.

Matt was very close to his grandparents as they were one who raised him. His parents were busy dealing with their own lives and never gave him the love and care that a child needed. When his grandfather, Jack Davis saw how his son and daughter-in-law neglected Matt, he decided to bring him along with him. Surprisingly, his parents willingly gave him to his grandparents and left the country.

…..

Inside the car.

" Where to sir?" The driver asked.

" Take me to the airport." Matt said before punching Bella's number but unfortunately the call did not go through.

After trying several times, Matt ended up leaving a voice message for her Bella asking her to call him as soon as possible.

He then quickly called Kevin to tell him about the whole situation.

…

Glory Enterprise.

Kevin had just finished a meeting when he received a call from Matt.

" Hey I was-"

Cutting him off, Matt said," I love Bella."

Kevin smiled and asked," Does Bella know that?" 

Matt shook his head and said," No."

Kevin sighed and said," Matt, I am not Bella."

" I know okay? I called her but her phone is not reachable. I am flying to LA right now because grandpa met with an accident and grandma is not well too." Matt said.

" What? Is he okay?" Kevin asked. He knew how important Matt's grandparents were for him.

" I don't know but I don't have time to go look for her Kevin and I cannot let her marry someone else like that. Can you please look for her on my behalf and ask her to wait for me and call me?" Matt said.

Kevin nodded his head and said," Okay, I will. You should take care of grandpa and grandma and keep updating me about his condition, okay?" 

" Okay but Kev please help me stop her. There are so many things I want to tell her but it's an emergency and I have to go. I cannot lose her again. I-"

" Matt calm down okay? I'll help you settle things here so don't worry." Kevin said.

Matt nodded his head and said," Bro my life is in your hands now. Please help me in this and I'll do whatever you want me to." 

" Okay, have a safe flight." Kevin said before hanging up the call.

….

After hanging up the call, Matt tried calling Bella again but the call still did not go through.

He then decided to send her a message and tell her how much he loved him and how sorry he is for hurting her like that.
