Chapter 195 - Broken Promises (1/2)

Ch-196

If it was previous times, Eleanor would have believed his every word. But not now.

”Cedric Emerson, Can you please stop your lies? I am tired of them,” Eleanor said.

”Eleanor, Do I look like I am lying to you this second? Just look at me and say,” Cedric asked with his eyes full of emotions.

Eleanor's heart says that he wasn't lying. Indeed he was saying the truth. His eyes were screaming saying that whatever he was saying was true. But eyes can be deceptive. She doesn't want to believe him or his words. And she chose otherwise.

”Cedric, please leave. I am tired,” Eleanor said with an expressionless face.

”Eleanor, how will you believe me? What shall I do to make you believe me?” he asked feeling frustrated.

”Do you love me?” Eleanor asked.

Cedric doesn't know why she asked such a question at an odd time like this. But he badly wanted to reply and he did.

”I do! And I love you! All the things I said to you previously because I am a dick!” he admitted.

”Then prove your love,” Eleanor said.

”What do you want me to do?” he asked with hope in his eyes.

Eleanor's insides were twisting in pain. She wanted to hug him and comfort him but she doesn't want to give in right now.

”Leave me,” she said.

”Eleanor, trust me once,” he said.

”Why?” she asked. Cedric just gave a pleading look to her.

”Please,” he pleaded again.

”Leave dammit! Leave me alone!” she yelled.

”Eleanor, why don't you understand me?” Cedric asked feeling frustrated.

Eleanor pushed Cedric from her and sat up straight. She took her shirt and wore it in front of his eyes which were observing her every move.

”You are asking me to understand you, right?” she asked as she sat in front of him.

His eyes looked at her. He wanted to listen to her and also wants her to listen to him.

”Cedric, tell me will accept if someone wants to sleep with you when she doesn't feel like having sex? But… seeing you are angry. I let you have your way till I am hurt. But did you give a damn to me! You just left me alone for the sake of your so-called business instead of staying with me in the hospital. I expected that you would at least feel something after getting me hurt. I even expected you would be the first person that I would see after I was awake. But where were you?

”You were nowhere. Did you come and explain things to me? Nope. I didn't ask to. Because I am afraid you would be hurt. Even though it hurt me to not know things, I was willing to take the hurt. But all you did was taking as granted.

”You left that day… and returned after a few days. And was punished by your father with a so-called punishment, winning my sympathy. Then in the meantime, god knows what you did. You even stopped calling me. Maybe that's when you reconciled with your long-lost love. And when you returned the first thing you did was hurt me.

”Not once, but again and again. You called me a whore! A freaking whore! And even now… you are turned on and wanted me. And yeah… the stupid me gave in to my hormones. And when I refused you… you started weaving this story.

”Okay, let's say I believed your story. What you will do now? Will you have your way with me tonight? And mock me tomorrow morning? Saying that I am a whore who moaned under like this was the end of the world, and I am so good on the bed? I don't want to do anything with you.

”Just leave me alone. I don't even want to see your face!!” Eleanor yelled at him.
