Chapter 46 - I HATE HIM (1/2)

The reason why I keep my feelings for myself, is because I can't explain them.

*******************

The first thing that Trisha realized after she saw her step sister was how pale Lise was. She looked barely alive, literally.

Her sunken eyes and the dark circles under her eyes she was desperately trying to conceal, couldn't hide how depressed she was.

God…

Trisha couldn't imagine what she had gone through under the hands of Gael McKeltar. She knew for sure that the man wouldn't hurt her psychically, but it didn't mean he wouldn't hurt her mentally.

And from what Trisha witnessed now, it seemed it was the latter, coupled with the fact that they would get married in less than a week now. It was probably the reason why Lise looked so haggard…

She approached her step sister and hugged her tightly only to notice how skinny she became after the last time they met each other.

”How are you feeling?” Trisha asked her, with concern in her voice.

Lise hugged her back and whispered something to her. ”I need your help,” she said. Her voice trembled with fear.

”Tell me,” Trisha whispered back to her, burying her face in her long hair, so those bodyguards that were sent to keep their eyes on Lise, wouldn't know what their conversation was about.

”I need you to buy me a pregnancy test kit.” Lise didn't have much time or liberation to bring this up in a different way, thus she said it as what it was. She then felt Trisha's body tense up in her embrace before she added softly to her step sister. ”Please, don't let anyone know about it.” She bit her bottom lip. ”I feel like I am going to die…”

”Alright,” Trisha said immediately. She tried to collect herself and pressed down her anxiousness to feign a sweet smile on her lips when she released Lise's body and put her at arm's length. ”You look so beautiful! You will be the most beautiful bride!” she said cheerfully.

Lise smiled at her and said 'thank you' in a low voice, just enough to make those guards feel relaxed and were not suspicious of them.

”Shall we eat something now? And after that, we will buy a few clothes.” Trisha linked her arms with Lise's and strode inside the shopping center.

Since the announcement of the wedding of Gael McKeltar, which sounded too sudden, there were many reporters and news hunters who wanted to know more about his bride, Lise Allington.

However, Gael put a tight security around his bride and didn't allow them to interview her.

It was fine to not meet anyone when Lise was at home, but now there were around twenty personal guards, who were waiting inside the shopping center to secure the area that she would go in.

Gael was crazy and he would do everything in his own sick way.

”Why are you here again?” Nikolai asked Blue when he finished his piano lesson. He found the little girl sitting on a chair behind him.

”You asked me to come to see you play,” Blue replied truthfully.
