Two years later

I had graduated from Medical school and Sean and I were on our honeymoon in Paris. I leaned on the balcony and gazed out at the view over our honeymoon suite...It was beautiful, just like Sean..I thought as he sauntered towards me, I thanked God everyday  for bringing a man like him to my life....it was clear as day I had made the right choice

"Daydreaming again" he said as he brought two glasses with a bottle of wine... pouring wine in them, he gave me one and hit my glass.

"Its non alcoholic" he said and I laughed

Sean and my father had hit it off, maybe because they were both lawyers or  because my father saw how much he loved me genuinely....or because he was now a christian, all in all he never gave me any reason to doubt his love for me throughout the years we dated and I tried not to think about the past, but it always came up...guess it would always be a part of our history.

"What are you thinking about..?"he asked

"You" I said, he chuckled and leaned on the balcony

"How did you find me that day?"I asked, I had always wanted to know but hadn't found the right time to ask...I didn't know if this was the right time.

He looked at me, we had decided not to talk about the past, worse on our honeymoon but this was something I needed to know, he sighed, leaned up and drank his wine, staring out

"I saw the text message Moses sent" he began and looked lost in thought"I remember sitting there feeling so hopeless and helpless, and thinking of what to do and the phone was just lying there with a text message from an unknown number about where you were...I knew then God was directing me"he said and looked at me"I think that was when I believed God had not abandoned me like I thought...I thought just like my mom he wasn't going to hear my prayers"

My lips were dried at such love for me

"You prayed for me" I said

"Yes...I told God I would come back to him if he could bring you back to me"he said. My heart melted, I didnt know that was why he suddenly became a christian, he held my hand on his face 

"He's never gonna hurt you again"he said

"I know"

Martin had gotten life imprisonment because his lawyer had convinced him to plead guilty, the charges against him had been many, he was looking at a death sentence if he hadn't..I just hoped he found God in prison.

"Besides how is he gonna find you in London"Sean said as he leaned back on the balcony

Sean had said we were going to base in London but I didn't know if I could be so far away from my family and had told him that but he wasn't buldging...

"You'll have to ask my father"I said

"Nu..uh..we have our lives Emilia, besides I own you now remember"

"Is that you being bossy...I could still take back my yes"

"Too late...you probably pregnant by now"he said smirking in dismissal

I gawked then hit him, he laughed before I pulled him to me and kissed him, he kissed me back, pulling back my hair

" I love you baby" he said

"I love you too".

The End.

    I read about Priest Alaska online that he has helped a lot of people revive broken marriages and relationships. I decided to reach out and from the beginning I felt welcomed and a little bit calmness struck me again my nerves was so calm immediately I knew I was on with the right person who can help me turn my marriage around for the better. Following the guidance of Priest Alaska I noticed positive changes, communication between me and my husband gradually improved, misunderstanding was resolved. Today, I’ve reconnected with my husband and we are committed to moving forward together. For anyone going through a difficult period in their marriage or relationship, seeking trusted guidance and support can be an important step toward healing and reconciliation.

    I'm so happy my husband is back! Thanks to Dr. Excellent for saving my marriage. My name is Heather Delaney. I married the love of my life Riley on 10/02/15 and we now have two beautiful girls Abby & Erin, who are conjoined twins, that were born 07/24/16. My husband left me and moved to be with another woman. I felt my life was over and my kids thought they would never see their father again. I tried to be strong just for the kids but I could not control the pains that tormented my heart, my heart was filled with sorrows and pains because I was really in love with my husband. I have tried many options but he did not come back, until I met a friend that directed me to Dr. Excellent spell caster, who helped me to bring back my husband after 11hours. My husband and I are living happily together again, This man is powerful, contact Dr. Excellent if you are going through any difficulty in life or having troubles in your marriage or relationship, he is capable of making things right for you. Here is his contact. Call/WhatsApp him at: +2348084273514 "Or email him at: [email protected] ,For more information visit his website:https://drexcellentspellcaster.godaddysites.com
