Chapter 430 I Will Stay With Him No Matter What
Wrenna’s heart thumped furiously although she seemed calmly asleep. Her eyelashes batted subtly as she waited for Damian to approach her.
She had butterflies in her stomach ever since she heard the door open. She was not sure if the air-conditioner was cold enough since she started sweating as every second passed.
It took a good one minute before she heard Damian move at the door.
Her body heated up in thrill and panic as she sensed him walking over and finally stopping in front of her.
Wrenna frowned and opened her eyes slowly as if she just woke up.
She grunted softly and blinked her eyes at him.
“You’re home?”
Speaking, she stood up and went to give him a hug.
Everything stood still. Damian did not even hug her back.
Wrenna’s arms tightened around his waist. “Damian…?”
Is he not going to do anything?
Does he really have sexual dysfunction?
Wrenna was already thinking about going on therapy together at this point.
Just as her mind was wandering, Damian lifted her off the ground and put her on the bed before pulling the blanket over her.
“Wren, I still have some work to do. What about you sleep first?”
Wrenna was really disappointed. She did not expect Damian to turn her down so blatantly. She felt it was her fault that he did not find her attractive.
“Sure, don’t work too late…”
Damian smiled at her and planted a kiss on her forehead before he left.
Right after he disappeared out of her sight, Wrenna grabbed the blanket in her arms and a deep frown carved on her brows.
He must be really frustrated he has to face this alone.
It must be hard for him to come to terms with this. He’s so perfect. Did I hurt his ego by tempting him?
Wrenna was feeling guilty. She told herself that she would never leave him no matter what.
Her thoughts were so jumbled up she did not sleep well that night.
After Damian left for work the next morning, Wrenna surfed the web for more information regarding couples facing problems with their sex life.
She figured it would be best to keep this from her friends. Damian might feel indignified if she were to share such private information with her friends. She should just solve the problem on her own.
What should I do if my husband can’t get hard?
She found all sorts of answers to her question.
Some people made snarky comments, while others encourage professional consultation.
Although this was the best advice she got, Wrenna still felt bringing Damian to the hospital would hurt his feelings, so she switched off the laptop and went to the hospital herself.
She waited at the area designated for male patients, but soon realized she was the odd one out. After all, she was a young woman.
She felt ashamed, but quickly straightened her back and sat down as if there was nothing wrong with her action. She would do anything for Damian.
She braced herself and held her head high as she waited for her turn. She felt like she was on the most important quest of her life.
A small smile curved on the doctor’s lips when he saw a young lady coming in.
“Excuse me, I think you should register at the counter for female patients.”
Wrenna shook her head shyly and sat down.
“I’m here on my husband’s behalf.”
“Well, I figured.” The doctor smiled widely.
“Does he feel bad about it? It’ll be better if he comes in person though. We can run a diagnosis and see if it’s physical or psychological.”
“Um… What about you tell me what are the symptoms for each case? He’s too busy, so I’m doing some research on my own. You can explain to me and I’ll verify it. I really don’t want him to feel hurt.”
The doctor and nurse looked at her understandingly. Wrenna was still a young woman and chances were she just got married.
This must be a huge blow to her.
“Alright. I’ll brief you on these two situations then. I’ll give you some pamphlets later so you have something to refer to after you go home.”
“Thanks.”
The doctor proceeded to brief her on sexual dysfunction among men and the consultation ended.
When Wrenna left with the nurse, the latter asked her quietly, “Do you know about this before you got married? I know of couples who file for divorce after they found out about it.”
“I won’t do that. I will stay with him no matter what.”
“You should really reconsider. You’re still young, so you probably haven’t realized the importance of having a healthy sex life. Not a lot of patients who come for therapy end up having their problems solved. Trust me on this. If your husband refuses to get treatment, you should just give up on your marriage. You still have a good life ahead of you.”
Wrenna begged to differ, but she did not say it out
The nurse kept babbling and did not even give her a chance to speak her mind.
Regardless of what she said, Wrenna had already made up her mind. Nothing would separate her from Damian.
When she finally made it back to school, her friends gathered around her wanting to know how things went yesterday.
Wrenna dismissed them by saying she ended up turning in early.
After class ended, she went home right away and buried herself in all the materials the doctor gave her.
Never had she gotten so serious about something. She was not even close to being this assiduous when she was in high school. She never liked studying, but she enjoyed looking at Damian studying.
To get to the bottom of this health condition, she even borrowed some books from her school library and started doing some serious research.
As for Damian, he did not even realize what Wrenna was up to. Cora had told him that Wrenna had been busy studying in the morning. She told him she had been spending her time at the library and that she slept early after she got home.
As for her roommates, they all thought Wrenna was studying extra hard to become a better version of herself for Damian.
Soon, Cora realized that Wrenna had been asking her to cook a certain type of soup that helped to improve their sexual life.
“Mrs. Quigley, are these for yourself?”
“Oh, no. Damian has been working a lot lately. It’ll be good for him to have something healthier.”
Wrenna felt bad for lying.
Cora, on the other hand, saw through her and said no more.
This went on without Damian’s knowledge until he realized he had been having trouble sleeping lately.
He sat up in his bed and turned toward Wrenna, wondering if something was wrong with himself. For days, he had found her irresistible.
His body was always heaty although he had taken a shower a few times in just one night. However, regardless of what he did, the same thing would happen the next night.
There was a night when he finally got to sleep soundly, but he had a wet dream. In his dream, he was making love to Wrenna passionately without holding back.
The dream was so vivid he could not even look at her in the eyes the next morning, so he just left for work without even having breakfast.
When he finally made it to the office, his nose started bleeding during a conference.
He fell into deep thoughts thinking about all this after the conference.
“Is everything okay? I heard Johannes saying you had a nosebleed this morning? You’d better get it checked though. It can turn out to be something serious.”
A playful voice came from Damian’s office door. It was Burnham Stewart.
He was dressed in a long black robe as if he was a clergyman. If it were not for his youthful face, people might have really mistaken him for a priest.
“Come, let me take your pulse.” Damian looked at the doctor from the corner of his eyes and did as he was told.
Burnham raised his brows in bewilderment when he felt Damian’s pulse.
Damian felt uneasy reading his unfathomable facial expression.
“Stop all the suspense and just spill the beans.”
A hearty laugh followed on the doctor’s side. When Burnham finally stopped laughing, he assured Damian that it was not some terminal illness.
Seeing him giggling nonstop even after giving a diagnosis, Damian chased him out of his office.
“Get out if there’s nothing else.”
Burnham turned around and surveyed Damian’s face.
“Damian, you know you should just satisfy your wife now that you’re married. Don’t tell me you guys are not doing it because your wife is too young.”
Damian shot him a death glare and Burnham immediately backed down.
“Alright, I won’t probe. Just make sure you don’t take too much of it. You don’t need that much to spice up your sex life. I’m pretty sure you find your wife attractive enough already.”
His remarks put a frown on Damain’s face. He darted his gaze around and finally smiled in resignation.
“What’s so funny?” Burnham asked when he saw him smiling.
Damian quickly resumed his composure. “What brings you here?”
“Oh, I’m thinking about having a gathering. Do you want to join us?”
Damian gave him a questioning gaze.
“Alright, fine. Stella’s coming too.”
