MY UNKNOWN HUSBAND, VOLUME 3 - Season 6 Episode 70

When Nina was about to ask what Cali meant, the doctor’s car came to a stop just beside theirs. The doctor immediately walked towards them.

Seeing Cali crying, he asked, “What are you feeling? Where do you feel hurt? I heard you have diarrhea. Which part of your belly hurts?” “I don’t know,” Cali replied. She raised her hand to wipe the tears on her face.

Nina became even more worried by Cali’s reply. Both she and the doctor thought that she was delirious with pain, and so the doctor had to reach out to touch her belly area. First, the doctor pressed on the middle and upper abdomen before going around the navel, and finally her lower right abdomen. Each time he pressed each part, he asked whether it felt painful.

Cali said that it was slightly painful everywhere he pressed on.

Looking at the place where the doctor pressed last, Nina hesitated and asked, “Do you think its acute appendicitis?”

When the doctor was about to answer Nina’s question, Cali interrupted him, “No, I don’t think so. I believe that I just ate something bad on the way, and now I have a running stomach.”

Cali suddenly bent down and covered her belly with her hands. “Oh no, I can’t stand it anymore. I have to go to the bathroom now. Can you please get me some medicine to stop my stomach from endlessly running?”

Before she could even thank both Nina and the doctor, she started to run towards the castle.

“Well, it does seem that she has a running stomach,” the doctor said. “Here. This is the antidiarrheal medicine. If she still doesn’t recover after two days, I recommend that she should come to the hospital to get a thorough check.”

Nina reached for the medicine packet and thanked the doctor on Cali’s behalf. After the doctor left, Nina went inside and walked towards Cali’s room. She met Ivy by the door of Cali’s room.

“Your Highness, what brings you here?” Ivy asked. Then, she saw the medicine packet on Nina’s hand, making her eyes lighten up. “Is that for Cali? I heard she has a running stomach. Judging by how pale she is, it seems to be very serious.”

Nina sighed and handed the medicine to her before saying, “I will give her two days off, so that she could have a good rest. In that time, you can also take two days off, but I also want you to pay attention to her health. Remember to let her take the medicine as prescribed. If there is anything wrong, or if her situation got worse, take her to the hospital immediately.”

“Thank you, Your Highness!” Ivy exclaimed and bowed at Nina. Her eyes lit up as soon as she heard that she could also take two days off. After that, she took the medicine happily. Seeing Ivy’s reaction, Nina frowned slightly but said nothing. She had a feeling that this friend of Cali was not reliable. Then again, she might be misjudging her, so she decided not to point it out for the time being.

Before Ivy entered Cali’s room, she watched Nina’s retreating figure. When she entered the room, Cali just came out of the bathroom, looking really bad and pale.

“What’s that in your hand?” Cali asked as soon as she saw Ivy by the door.

“Oh, it’s the medicine for your running stomach, and Princess Nina sent it in herself!” Ivy said excitedly as she placed the medicine packet on the table. “Oh, Cali, Princess Nina is so kind to you! She even went here to give the medicine herself even though she could ask a servant to do it. Cali, if ever you succeed in your career in the future, don’t you ever forget about me, okay?”

Cali just stared at the medicine on the table. With a fake smile on her face, she answered, “It’s okay. I am almost recovered, so I don’t need to take any medicine.”

“What? That soon?” Ivy asked in disbelief. She wasn’t convinced by that, seeing how Cali looked, so she opened the medicine packet and said, “You better take some. I will help you. Princess Nina approved a leave of two days for me, so I could take care of you.”

Ignoring what Ivy said, Cali sat on the sofa with a pillow in her arms. She placed her head down on the pillow, and as soon as she closed her eyes, the scene she accidentally saw at the airport came back to her mind clearly once more.

While she was waiting for Nina, she saw Sean by the exit of the airport. She saw how he grabbed a woman wearing a black hat and mask. Cali thought that Sean had a quarrel with his girlfriend.

At that moment, her eyes were sore and astringent, and that she should have just quietly hid aside as if she saw nothing. However, her legs were not cooperating, and she stood still as she watched him.

Besides, she hadn’t seen Sean for half a month now, and so she really missed him like crazy. Plus, she was already quite satisfied taking a few glances at him from afar.

Watching him made Cali curious about which star Sean was now with. However, the woman’s face was covered by the hat and mask, so she kept her stare on the woman, just in case she could get a slight glimpse.

However, she realized too late that she should not have kept staring, because as soon as the hat and mask were off, she recognized that side face.

It was no other than Nina.

‘How could it be Princess Nina?’ she thought to herself.

For a moment, Cali suspected that she was just hallucinating, and so she rubbed her eyes and opened them again. However, each time she did, it didn’t change the fact that it was Nina.

She was even more surprised when Sean bent over and kissed Nina.

Because of that, her mind turned completely blank. She could not accept what she saw, so she quietly went to the bathroom to hide.

She turned the faucet on splashed cold water on her face again and again, as if washing her face could erase what she saw. She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. Perhaps, it was just someone who looked a lot like Nina from the side.

‘How could Sean do something that intimate with Princess Nina?

Moreover, how could Princess Nina cheat on her husband? She and Count Nangong love each other so much, or don’t they?’ Cali wondered. She grabbed a tissue and wiped her face dry. Then, she picked up her phone and dialed Nina’s number. She tried to make herself look and sound calm, but her voice would not stop trembling.

When Nina asked her what was wrong, Cali almost couldn’t control herself.

Her remaining sanity and doubt that she was wrong did not allow her to confront her. Instead, she went to see Nina first to confirm it.

As she was walking towards Nina, she paused to look at her from head to toe in the distance. However, she was even more shocked that Nina was wearing exactly the same as the woman she saw with Sean.

It was true. Nina was having an affair with another man behind Vicente’s back.

Moreover, the man Nina was having an affair with was the man Cali loved.

Because of this, Cali’s face turned pale. Hate, sadness, and anger all intertwined in her eyes. At that moment, she almost occupied the moral ground and wanted to rush over and confront Nina, asking her what happened and why.

However, Nina saw her and the worried look in her eyes discouraged her from saying or asking anything about it.

As she sat in the car then while Nina drove, Cali could not help but recall how Nina treated her in the past year, making her cry her heart out unconsciously.

Cali was left in a trance as she recalled the moments from the airport until this very moment.

After a while, she heard someone calling her name, taking her back to reality.

“Cali? Hello?” Holding a glass of lukewarm water, Ivy kept waving her other hand in front of her, but there was still no response. She then decided to shout, “Cali!”

“Huh? What? What happened?” Startled, Cali raised her head to look up at Ivy with a dull look in her eyes.

Ivy said crossly, “What happened to you? Were you bewitched or something? I called you so many times, but you weren’t responding. Anyway, here. Take the medicine.” She then handed her the cup of warm water and the tablet.

“Thank you,” Cali said. She took the cup and waved her hand over the medicine. “It’s okay. I’ll just drink some warm water. I don’t need the medicine. I am really fine now.”

Ivy furrowed her eyebrows into a frown and asked suspiciously, “Really? Are you sure? You don’t really have a stomachache, do you? Did something happen to you?”

“Maybe. I don’t know,” Cali replied with a shrug, but she didn’t deny anything. “Princess Nina mentioned that sometimes, psychological problems can manifest physically, and so we feel physical pain when we feel pain inside.” “Psychological problems? What do you mean?” Ivy sat down beside Cali. “What’s wrong? Did you do something? Are you in trouble?”

Cali lowered her head on the pillow and said, “Well, I saw Sean.”

“Ah. No wonder,” Ivy said, feeling relieved in a way that it wasn’t that serious. “Sean doesn’t like you because he has bad taste. I am certain that you will definitely find a better man, who sees your own value.”

Cali sighed and said, “Maybe Sean has good taste and he likes… Never mind. Forget it.”

Ivy frowned. “Why did you stop halfway? Isn’t his girlfriend a celebrity? As far as I know, only a few of them are clean, and so Sean is probably deceived,” Ivy said indignantly, crossing her arms over her chest after placing the medicine down on the table.

“Stop talking nonsense,” Cali scolded. With mixed feelings in her heart, she turned to Ivy and said seriously, “Ivy, I want to ask you a question. What do you think of the relationship between Sean and Princess Nina?”

“Well, not bad I guess,” Ivy replied. “However, Sean doesn’t look like he’s a bodyguard at all. I think he is more like a really close friend of both Princess Nina and Count Nangong, but I also think that…”

Cali noticed that Ivy was hesitating, so she asked, “What? What is it? What do you think?”

“Wait, okay! I don’t think I can say it out loud. I’m afraid I’ll get into trouble,” Ivy said. “I think Sean is very good to Princess Nina, but not the casual or normal kind. I mean, he is very gentle to her, and it looks like he is only like that to her. Even though he still seems expressionless around her, I can sense that he acts differently towards her.”

Cali’s heart skipped a beat. ‘Does Ivy feel the same way?’ She thought.

She thought she was way too sensitive to even notice how Sean acted around Nina.

She remembered something all of a sudden. On the day when Nina met Jett in the teahouse, Cali called Sean using Nina’s phone. When she did, she heard him call her gently, “Little girl.”

It was impossible for Sean not to know that it was Nina’s number.

‘Are they having an affair behind Count Nangong?’
