Chapter 79 - SHE WILL HEAR IT LATER (2/2)
Another knock which was then followed by a statement, ”I will come in.”
There was a short pause and then Gael entered the room. He looked pale. Anne told her that he was greatly injured because of what had happened.
”You didn't answer me, I thought you were sleeping,” Gael said and when she refused to answer him and chose to stare out of the window at the broken trees out there instead, he took a chair and dragged it close to her, as he sat down. ”I know you are upset with me.”
”I am not.”
Gael raised his brows, that was completely a lie. ”If you want to lie, make it believable.”
The little girl turned her head slightly and looked at Gael. ”Why did your wife push me off the building?”
Gael flinched when he heard the title that Blue used. Why was everyone calling her 'his wife'? He would love it when he had her in his arms, but not now, it sounded too harsh.
”She didn't mean to do that.”
”She wanted to kill me.”
”No, Blue… the situation was a little bit complicated back then.”
”Did she think I would survive that height?” Blue creased her brows. She didn't look like an eight year old child. Sometimes, it was easy to forget that. Especially while having these kinds of conversations.
”No, Blue, she was in panic.”
”Why did she run away from you?”
Gael sighed deeply, he didn't want to admit it. He didn't feel guilty for what he had done to Lise, but surely, he would have done more than that to keep her close to him.
”Because I have done bad things.”
Blue pulled her legs close to her chest and hugged them tightly, as she rested her head on her arms. ”She will never love you.”
”You don't have to say it out loud.” Gael knew Lise wouldn't love him because that was his curse, he would never get the love that he wanted, one of the reasons why he did what he had done, since no matter what, she would never be his.
”I have tried to tell her before your wedding, but she said she will hear the story later.”
