The Bride

He grunted in understanding and looked out the window.

“Is Nadia his daughter?”

I asked again as if I needed reassurance. I didn’t expect this to happen?

“I’m pretty sure he’s not ready to talk about it.”

– What happened to him?

– sorry. I can’t say anything. We’ll have to wait for Tristan himself to speak.”

The wait was getting more and more annoying.

“good.” I said and stood up. I took my bag and hung it up.

over my shoulder.

“Are you leaving already?”

“I’m sorry, but I need some time alone. Take too much.”

“He’ll take care of you, Chloe.”

I ignored him and reached for the outside door.

– Chloe is waiting for you.

Adrian followed me and I stopped and turned around. “Thanks for inviting Adrian, but I need to think about it for a while.”

‘They should know that this is a serious matter. You will push him further”.

He told her not to follow him. I got into the car without looking back.

“Nadia is his daughter, do you have any daughter?”

I wish I hadn’t asked. Maybe it would have been better to be in the dark, but now I can’t stop thinking.

I decided to call Vina. I didn’t want to get close to Tristan with all the different feelings I was feeling right now. I took out my phone and called him and he called first.

“Hi!”

“Are you home?”

“Hey, are you coming?” say yes.’ – Yes.

“really?”

– Yes, Bin.

– I said he cried very happy.

‘Wait, I wasn’t excited. it’s fine?’

“No, I’ll tell you everything when I leave.”

I grumbled and hung up the phone.

It was a 20 minute drive from where I lived. I popped the Cheetos in my mouth before parking and getting out of the car.

I tried on the green floral dress I was wearing, but the warm wind had no effect. I dragged on my dress and headed for the big door.

He hugged me as soon as I opened the door. I held her back and refused to pull her back. I really needed a hug.

“Are you at your parents’ house?”

I asked, hugging her small body. “Not”.

he whispered

When we parted, he smiled at me and took me home and closed the door. “I think I messed up. I feel so terrible

But at the same time I was very angry. – He said while we were both lying on the couch. “I’m really mad.”

I moaned and rested my head on his lap.

“Then I’ll be the therapist today.”

“And he’s my best friend.” I told her. – Okay, tell me what happened.

– I tricked Adrian into telling me about Nadia.

“Oh shit, didn’t you like what I found out?”

– Yes, I will never ask. “who is he?”

“His daughter?”

“shit”. he whispered

“It depends on his health anyway.”

“Do you?”

“I don’t know, now I feel like I’m invading his personal space.”

“He’ll be very upset if he finds out you’re backstabbing.”

“Wow, you’re a therapist.” When I said that, he shrugged. “He needs help and I want to help.”

“That’s a great idea that reminds me of Nadia.”

Vina said sarcastically.

‘You could call it exposure therapy, but that’s not what I’m trying to do. He doesn’t want to talk to me and it annoys me. I hope it opens my heart.”

I whispered. “Son, it’s not easy. He’s been through it and thinks it’s best to keep it inside. It’ll come out eventually when you quit being a detective.”

“Tristan is so crazy.” I said looking up at the high ceiling. “Everything will be fine.”

He whispered as he stroked my hair, which lulled me to sleep.

“It’s all about patience.

He said he sounded like the kind of therapist I wanted. “It’s been a shame since I was born.” I murmured.

“You love him, he loves you, and wait for him.”

– Let’s not jump to conclusions here.

“You looked so happy when I told you about that night.”

“Stop.”

I screamed. My phone rang. “who is he?”

Veena asked when she saw my face. “Tristan”.

“Do you think Adrian told him?” “It won’t do, it’s better than that.” Veena defends him with a smile.

“I can not do it.”

I left the phone on the couch and saw the bell ring. Veena answered the call and answered the call. I groaned and buried my face in my hands. – Hi, Tristan. “Where’s the cache?”

“How rude, I can’t even say hello.” – Is Cassie okay?

– I’m sleeping, I don’t feel well.

“I’ll send Maurice to the hospital.”

“I just got a headache and I’m laying here snoring. Don’t worry.”

hair.”

– I don’t snore.

I said in a low voice. “I’ve never heard him snore.” I laughed at Tristan’s words.

“You still have to greet me.” – Hello, Belvina.

– Goodbye, goodbye Tristan.

He smiled and hung up the phone. – cash? He smiled.

– I do not want to talk. “She is so wonderful.”

– he said, throwing my phone at me. “Did you feel angry?”

“Not.” he said as he walked into the kitchen.

Close your eyes and fall asleep. I got up from the couch and looked for Vina, but I couldn’t find her.

“Okay?”

I got up and called. – Yes, in the kitchen!

I groaned and went to the kitchen. “I heard you snoring, not gonna lie.”

As she sat on the island, I grabbed two cookies from the center jar and ate them noisily. “Tristan called a few times.” “Did you answer?”

“Not”.

“good”.

– I talked and took another cake. “Are you hungry?”

“Yes”.

He laughed as he stirred everything he had cooked on the stove. “What time is it?” – It’s almost eight o’clock.

– The food is ready?

I asked for more cookies. “close.”

When he picked it up, my doorbell rang across the room.

“Another Tristan?” – No, I’m Adrian.

The snow shone like Christmas lights, turned off the stove and came closer. “Hello Adrian. what is this?’ “Are you home?”

“Not?”

“I forgot what to say. If Tristan is acting strange, don’t push him and give him a break.”

‘Why? I… “No, you don’t know?” “Then what happened?”

“Today is the saddest day for him, his day.”

‘Is it Tristan’s birthday? And you tell me.”

“No weddings, no birthdays. I just wanted you to know.”

“So you didn’t celebrate his birthday?”

“Yes”.

“Why?”

‘Good evening Chloe. Please don’t do anything you’ll regret.”

and ended the call.

“I don’t like him doing that.” I moaned. – Your voice is so sexy. – said Vina next to me.

“I’ll buy you a cake and balloons.” I stood up and said – Chloe, you heard me.

“Yes, but I can’t see his birthday.”

“You’re too stubborn.”

“I can not do anything about it.” I said narrowing my eyes. “Do you want to come with me?” It might not go well.”

‘With Tristan, you never know what to expect. I’ll be fine, good night.

I hugged her and kissed her. “If you don’t call by midnight, I’m calling 911.”

“Good night”.

– He waved his hand. We have one more cookie before we go. ••°°

I was arguing with myself about the way home. I looked at the cake next to me and the three balloons behind me. I did not see Morris when I entered the house and he was probably visiting.

family.

I went upstairs to see if Tristan was home. I opened the door and the room was empty.

I took off my sandals and put on slippers. I went down again and waited. I was tired, so I opened the wine. I drank wine while I waited.

I had a feeling it wouldn’t be as bad as Adrian said. It wasn’t an angry voice when I called.

I heard the sound of a car outside and I got up and caught the ball. Soon the door opened. “happy Birthday!!!”

I shouted as soon as I saw Tristan. At first I was surprised, but when I started singing, I got angry. I hope you can have a voice. “… Happy Birthday…” “Stop.”

He didn’t speak as coldly as I expected.

“Who said that?” My mother?” “No.”

“Hadrian, right?”

– No, I did some research.

I lied and swore he would laugh.

– You’re too stubborn, Chloe. – He said and left. Chloe? Good. It’s confusing again. “How about a cake?” You can’t refuse the cake.”

I screamed. – Lie down, Chloe.

– Well, it’s your birthday. – No, it’s the day I died! – He screamed and looked at me.

I saw him coming down the stairs. When

I turned and looked at Maurice. “He will come.”

He told me and left. I sighed and drank. I took another drink and poured more. Ciara once called me an alcoholic and maybe I did.

The building bell rang and I was so upset that no one looked at me, waiting for Maurice to arrive. I found myself opening the door because it would take forever. I took another sip and walked to the front door. The door was opened without checking the door camera.

“Gray?”

“I know it’s all lies. I know you’re not pregnant.”

He exhaled as if he had completed a marathon to get here. “I know you’re lying, I know you”

not pregnant”

I looked at him, not knowing what to say.

“I’m sorry it took me so long to find.”

I just smiled and answered. “Chloe.”

He came and touched my face.

his hand

“I’m very confused, what…

Very bad. I can’t imagine how angry I must have been that day, but I should have stayed and fought. I had to prove to everyone that the bastard was lying. I’m sorry, Chloe.

I drew

in the middle of the road

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA leave me some space

He looked sick and guilty. i could see

‘Okay, Gray, that’s the past.

today”.

I said avoiding his eyes. “I’m probably the worst person on the planet.”

“Once upon a time.”

I feel better “Right side”.

He muttered and looked down at his feet, then back at me. “All my fault, I should have done something. I was stupid.”

he whispered “That bastard”

– Don’t call me that.

I went in and was surprised.

‘Chloe, he ruined your life and took everything from you. are you happy here Why did he do that? he told you Why is he putting you here?!”

He shouted at the last part. “I don’t know. But I’m happy to be separated from the people who believed in me. I got rid of the people I thought would fight for me.”

I crossed my arms and said “You can live with me. Stop his lies. I’ll talk to your family and try to convince them.”

“I wish him luck.”

I heard Tristan’s deep voice

he let me run IT

Did he think he was mad?

I saw Gray clench his chin and fists. “Liar!” he spit

‘Grey, calm down. “Yeah, calm down.”

Tristan said, hugging me from behind. ‘We have to leave in 10 seconds before I call the police and file a trespassing charge. You probably didn’t like it the last time you were there.

– he added, leaning down and kissing my lips.

I looked at Gray with his eyes fixed on where he was holding me. “Stop it, there is no audience to enjoy your dirty lies!”

“circulation?”

Tristan smiled softly and I felt his body tremble.

I tried to push his hand away, but it didn’t help. – You have to go home, it’s late.

I told him he was too tired to witness the fight.

“I don’t know what you’re doing, but if it is, I won’t hesitate to tell you.”

If you hurt the whole world and Chloe…”

“I will never hurt them.”

Tristan took my hand and squeezed it gently. “You already hurt her, idiot, with your lies”

– Gray, go home. I begged

“I’m coming back.”

He talked more to Tristan than to me. I saw him go back to his car.

I took his hand and entered the house. I went back to the bar and sat down on one of the stools, sipping a drink. I started to feel the effect. Tristan sat behind the sofa with his arms crossed and there was a long silence between us.

“So how old is Nadia now?” you

Has he not seen his mother yet? Why were you kicked out of their lives?

A question came out of my mouth. I waited for him to say something, but he remained silent.

“how did you know?”

“I’m in a hurry, Tristan.”

I looked back and found

Go away “There’s Tristan, he’s always running around like a chicken.”

I stopped and really understood

‘You know, I really started thinking between us, but

Know.”

– You left me no choice! “I’m sick of the secrets,” he said.

“So you had to?” I hope you are happy now.

“There are not. I want to know if you still look at his mother.

– When you hear about Nadya, you don’t know why.

He told me to come closer.

“I think I decided to apologize for ruining my birthday surprise.”

I didn’t know what to say to him. ‘You don’t need to know anything about my past. You know how I feel about you, you don’t need to find secrets to break us up.

“I want it!”

I got up and went. “I hate that you’re hiding something from me. It’s been 4 months!”

I yelled that it must be alcohol. – After what you did to me, do you think I don’t deserve the truth?

he asked as he approached.

– Do you think you are better than me? “At least I won’t look like an angel.” You won’t solve the drinking problem first.

“Drinking problem? I drink to control my anger!”

“Nothing changes! You’re still an alcoholic!”

– Watch what you’re doing. I said. “You lose.”

I said and took another sip. – You think it’s easy?

he said in a pained voice. “You’ve been crazy ever since I saw that tattoo. You bring back those awful memories, Chloe!”

‘I hope you can open your mind easily. I’m not ready to talk about my past life. Forget it, it was a waste of time.

‘I can’t be in a relationship that makes me feel any different, Tristan. Relationships are about sharing trust, sharing pain and fighting with each other. Stop feeling like a child you can’t handle no matter what.”

“good”.

– he said, throwing his hands in the air. Was he trying to tell me? “It’s hard to believe me or just give me some time. Now I know why your previous relationship turned out to be a total disaster.”

I huffed and clenched my fists.

“Do you like teasing people?”

I dug my nails into my palms. What he said? He pretended not to listen to me.

“You’re no better than the devil, Tristan!”

I called after him. “I think they abandoned you because you were a beast!”

I shouted as his statue disappeared.

I fell to the ground in tears, I didn’t know why I was crying, but I was disappointed. I was angry with myself, so I cried more and drank more.

I took out my cell phone and called Bina. “Hi. Are you Chloe Simpson?”

he asked. „Bina”.

am plans

„Chloe? “Are you ok?” he said surprised. “No, I’m a mess.” I screamed. “You’re drunk?”

I wanted to give up, but he knew the answer.

“close.”

“What you did?” he cried I told him everything that had happened since I left his house.

“God, I shouldn’t have done that.” “I’m nervous.”

‘You don’t know what he’s going through. It must be hard for him. Stop pushing me.

“I couldn’t control him.” I sniffed my nose.

“Listen to me now.”

His voice took on authority.

“Stop drinking, go to your room and take a shower. “Take your idiot tomorrow and apologize.”

“Excuse me? How is this my fault?”

“You’re in love with him and I’m sure he feels the same way. I’m curious, ** wait until he has a good night.”

He ended the conversation before I could open my mouth to protest. “excellent”.

I grunted and dropped the drink in my hand. I comb my hair back

I looked up at the large chandelier above me. I did as he told me, but the next morning I couldn’t bear to apologize to Tristan.

I knew I was wrong, but it was some kind of alcohol. for the next three days,

I said nothing and just gave them salt and sugar with awkward expressions.

I’m tired of the silence and the space between us. I want to see you every day, even if I’m sitting at the table. I decided to apologize. Vina refused to talk to me and wanted me to talk to Tristan before contacting her.

After dinner on Tuesday I went to her room. I knocked but he didn’t answer, he never does.

I opened the door to see that he was busy with his laptop. “can I come in?” “Yes”.

He answered without looking back.

I went in and closed the door and he closed his laptop and looked at me. He scanned what I was wearing.

Okay, I decided to wear big pajamas today. He stood up and moved closer, leaving a space between us.

“Did you find one of my skulls?”

he asked, holding both hands. ‘I’m sorry about that night. I was a little drunk.”

He said nothing and looked at me as if he was waiting for me to say something else. “I was…angry…um…”

“I’ve never seen you speechless.” I’m not condemning you, Cathy, but I’ll accept your apology because it’s the worst thing you’ve ever done.

He approached with a playful smile. I dreamed

I opened my mouth to defend myself but he pulled me into his body and pressed his lips to mine. Gasping suddenly with action, he wrapped his arms around my neck and tilted my neck to deepen the kiss.

I didn’t see it coming. I put my hand on his neck from his chest and stood up with a loud moan. I held her neck so the kiss wouldn’t break. I miss him so much, it’s like we’ve been separated from each other for years. He climbed into bed with me and we broke the kiss to catch our breath.

– God, I miss you.

He said as he pulled my hair back with his fingers and I leaned over his hand and smiled. “I’m sorry I’m so stupid.”

I told him I didn’t care what he said before.

“I am glad to hear that.

Someone like you will recognize it. “It was good that you left me.”

She laughed as we spoke as I pushed her onto the bed from behind. “If we want to work, we’ll have to wait for what they say.”

he whispered softly. “Soon, I promise.” “good.” I whispered I leaned down and bit her bottom lip and she moaned and pulled me closer and kissed me hard on the lips.

His tongue brushed my teeth and licked my upper lip and I moaned in pleasure as I pulled my shirt back and took it off. As if he didn’t know what to do, he got up from his chair, looked at me and patted my back with his bare hands, giving me goosebumps. He moved my head to the side and wrapped his teeth around my neck. I happily hunched over as I ran.

I ran my fingers through his hair, closed my eyes and tilted my head back. I couldn’t stop moaning.

He changed positions momentarily, took off his hoodie, kissed my neck, reached for the bottom strap of his pajamas and slowly pulled it down. I didn’t expect to apologize.

I woke up to the sound of someone pulling my hair. “What are you doing?”

“God knows how to do my hair,” cried Tristan.

“Yes”. – Ahh!

I was upset that his curly hair was so painful. “Yeah, calm down.”

he said with a soft smile.

When he finished speaking, I grabbed my head and looked at him. “Thanks.” – I’m sick?

He smiled and lifted my chin to kiss me. It was slow and short.

‘You look hot. Now I feel like a stylist.”

– he said looking at the hair and closing his eyes.

“What time is it?”

I asked through the dark room. – After six o’clock.

he said, stroking my face with his thumb.

I turned to look at him. “Is something wrong?”

he asked, interfering with the movement of his thumb on my face.

– No, I miss you.

I smiled and rested my chin on his chest. I kissed his chest and touched his stubble. What happened? How can I fall in love with someone who once ruined my life and wanted to die? – I promise to explain everything to you.

he said softly.

“Okay, take your time.”

He raised his eyebrows in surprise. “I’m waiting, Mr. Sanchester.”

I leaned down and kissed his lips, he smiled and the next words from his mouth paralyzed me.

“I love you, Cassie.”

I looked at him without a word. ‘It’s okay if you don’t feel that way.

I just wanted you to know.’

I said, but I couldn’t figure out why. I kissed him again. I didn’t like the silence I made.

I slowly sat on top of him and he broke the kiss and looked into my eyes. “Do you want to promise not to leave, even though you know everything?”

“I’ve seen the worst and stayed. I won’t stay.”

Partly because I’m broke, but now it’s because of that.

Relieved, he grabs my cheek and kisses me passionately, yes

He surrounded me and changed our positions. A lot has changed between us recently. I promised Tristan and Vina to lock up Detective Chloe and wait for her to finish. I saw a new Tristan that I would like to spend the rest of my life with.

He takes me on a date and makes me go to the spa every weekend. Everyone got suspicious attention, so I ditched the yoga class.

Tristan has hired four bodyguards to guard the house, but he has no intention of stopping anyone from playing with him. The man could still haunt him with what happened six years ago and he started having nightmares and he mumbled “I’m sorry Fiona.”

I didn’t ask her, but I was there to help and I was always there to comfort her and reassure her that she was safe. Even with guards, the man found his way.

Tristan found a blue shirt in bed and went crazy that day, ripped it off and didn’t say anything to me but hugged me tight as I fell asleep. She recently found a pair of baby clothes in her room. He fell that day and I saw him cry for the first time. He broke up that day.
