Chapter 27
He could have asked the receptionist to have them thrown out but he wanted to give them the privilege to see her, especially Olivia. He wanted to see her reaction, and she didn't disappoint.
Sarah could feel the tension in the room, Matteo had told her to keep an eye on Dawn in case Stephan left. They didn't give her much details but from what she could add up, Olivia had sent some people to hurt Dawn.
Sarah stared at Olivia who seemed to be crying as she stared at Dawn and using her handkerchief to clean her face but no one seemed to care about her or console her, Sarah still didn't believe Olivia would do something like that to her sister, but when she thought about Stephan and how Olivia was obssessed with him.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
She could see that there was a possibility, she remembered how obssessed she was about Alberto and how she wanted him all to herself but it never happened but in Olivia and Stephan's case, Stephan didn't love Olivia, wouldn't love her and could never love her. It was a fact that even Olivia knew herself.
Sarah felt Stephan doted on Dawn, the way he had kissed her earlier, it was like he was in a world of his own. The way he stared at her, he had even fed her like a little baby, and tucked her to sleep.
Sarah had not seen anything like that before. She envied it a little bit and Matteo had teased her when he noticed her gloomy look.
'I will tuck you in when we get home,' he whispered in her ear and bit her earlobe.
She touched her ear at the thought of it.
"Is there a way we can transfer her home?" Damien asked. "I don't mind the cost."
Olivia stared at Damien, that was a good idea. She was grateful Damien was making that offer, at home she would be able to take good care of her and convince Dawn that she loved and cared for her and would never hurt her. "Why would you want to do that? She is safe here." Matteo also told her that if a time arise for this discussion, she should not let it happen no matter what.
"She will also be safe at home, I have enough guards to keep a close eye on her."
"You should ask her husband for permission," Sarah replied.
"Her husband," Olivia and Damien repeated with a puzzled look.
"Are you talking about this imbecile? He is not her husband." Damien yelled angry that this lady would assume Stephan to be her husband.
"I will also appreciate it, if you are quiet. This is a hospital not a..."
"You have no right to talk to me that way, I demand that you move her to her house. Name the price this instant."
"Roger!" Stephan finally spoke. "Roger!" He shouted again as the body guard rushed inside. "Get this idiot out of this room."
"Which of the idiot Sir?" The bodyguard asked and Damien nearly pounced on the guard.
"The tall one." Stephan ordered.
"Da...mien," Dawn muttered softly. She was trying to get some sleep but it was getting noisy in here. When she tried to open her eyes she first saw Damien.
Was she dreaming?
"Dawn," Damien called out but the bodyguard had already held on to him and was pulling him out. "Will you let go of me you insolent prick."
"Move Sir, don't let me be aggressive." The bodyguard requested motioning him to the door.
"What..what is.. going on?" Dawn muttered slowly trying to sit up as the bodyguard and Damien continued arguing, the bodyguard pulled Damien this time forcefully and dragged him out of the room. Olivia didn't want to say anything because she feared that Stephan would send her out as well.
"And you, get away from her." Stephan ordered waving his hand.
"Oli..via." Dawn muttered again, she didn't know if it was real or probably she was having a dream.
Olivia walked away and went to sit on a small chair far off, she watched Stephan stand up and stood beside Dawn, he leaned in and patted her hair softly trying to get her to sleep back.
"It's okay, sleep. You are tired." Stephan said as Dawn stared at him, she felt all her nerves relaxing at his touch.
"What...is going...on?" Dawn whispered in a sleepy voice. She didn't really have much strength to talk or look around. Her body was really hurting her.
"It's nothing," Stephan whispered back. "Are you in pain?" He added.
"A..little ..bit."

"You need to rest." He didn't stop massaging her hair, he noticed she liked it as her eyes were closing each time, his hands came in contact with her hair.
"Hmm," Dawn sighed as she slowly closed her eyes.
"Has the hospital bill been sorted out?" Olivia asked Sarah even thou she suspected Stephan had paid already or maybe not since Sarah was his friend, she probably did it for free.
She was upset that Sarah would call Stephan, Dawn's husband. When clearly Sarah knew she liked Stephan.
Olivia was even more upset with the way Stephan was behaving right now with Dawn, he was soft on her and it was unusual. It angered her, that she didn't know her hand had already turned into a fist.
How she wished it was her Stephan was touching like that? Stephan had never been gentle with her no matter how hard she tried, he didn't care about her.
Dawn woke up later in the evening with a deep yawn, she had slept all day, so she didn't know why she still felt sleepy, was she just weak from the painkillers. She tried to raise her head to scan the room but it came with excruciating pain, instead she looked to her side when she felt something on her hand.
She saw Stephan's head lying next to her, while his hand were on her hand, even in his sleep he was keeping a close eye on her. Dawn wanted to laugh at the thought of it, did he also dream of her?
She watched him sleep, his face looked more calm and peaceful this way. She noticed his face was really smooth and without blemish, such a fine man.
His eyebrows were thick and well sharped, some men were lucky or was it all men, her brows were thin and she had to do lots of make up to make them look thick and full while Olivia who had full ones would shave them up just to draw a new one, it was hilarious the things women did to look beautiful.
She wondered which skin care routine he was using because he was glowing right now. No wonder, women were drooling over him, he was a well-groomed man.
She stretched her hands to feel his face, she didn't know why but the more she looked, the more she wanted to feel it.
She didn't want to wake him up, so she lightly brushed her hand over his face and his eyebrows, it was cold like him, but she loved it. She extended her hand into his hair.
"If you keep staring I might kiss you," Stephan said with his eyes still closed. He had woken up some minutes ago but he felt weak from doing nothing for the past two days, he needed proper rest not just sleeping on the couch or titling his head on the side of the hospital bed.
Sarah had offered to bring in another bed for his comfort but he didn't want that, plus his upcoming event were already stirring up some trouble from really dangerous people. He wanted Dawn to heal up just right before he took her to his house.
When Dawn had woken up, he had felt her in the room from her soft sigh, he felt she would sleep back a little, instead he felt her hand on his face. He couldn't tell what she was up to until he felt her staring at him. He wondered what she was thinking of that would make her want to touch him on the face.

Dawn was startled when she heard Stephan's voice, she tried to remove her hand in time but felt Stephan's hand putting it back on his head. He slowly opened his eyes staring at her. "Do you want to pee?"
Dawn didn't want to use the toilet, but now that Stephan mentioned it she suddenly felt the urge to, she nodded her head as he instantly rose to his feet like some programmed robot. He carried her gently bridal style and took her into the bathroom.
Dawn noticed Olivia fast asleep on the couch, when Stephan had carried her into the bathroom. She wasn't dreaming after all, she wondered where Damien was. She remember seeing their faces but she couldn't tell if it was real or a dream. She remembered her little misunderstanding with Olivia before the incident and how Olivia had not answered her phone when Red called her, she wondered why.
Stephan slowly dropped her on the toilet seat, he had thought this through but with Dawn biting on her bottom lips and looking lost, he knew she had figured this one out. He smirked at her.
"I don't feel like using the toilet anymore."
"Why? Are you worried I will have to assist you in pulling off your panties?"
This man! Couldn't he ever twist his words. Dawn couldn't reach down and drag her pant, her hands were still sore and her waist wasn't even going to allow it.
"Where is Sarah?"
"Let me help you, I will be gentle."
"Is there a gentle way for a man to remove a woman's pant?"
"No." Stephan replied sharply. "But don't you think it will be awkward if I do anything crazy to you in here even thou I would love to rip that pant off your ass and bend you over and I know you want me to." Dawn gulped at his words and for some reason she felt turned on by it, why?
"Keep your eyes on me," she concluded. She knew even if she asked for Sarah, he wouldn't agree to it.
"Very well," Stephan smiled he squatted down and placed his hands on her thigh as he slowly placed it in, he kept his eyes on Dawn who had a blank expression like she was trying to suppress how she was feeling. He finally reach her hips and held on to the sides of the pant, he felt Dawn shiver at his touch.
"Close your eyes." Dawn ordered.
