Chapter 16
I immediately covered my whole body with my hand. He was obviously surprised and smashed the bathroom door. I was also very surprised by what he did and gasped.
"What the fuck!"
"Why don't you lock the door?!" he yelled.
"I didn't know you were coming. I thought you were coming home later," I explained.
"I know you just want me to lust after your body even though it's obvious that I'm not interested," he replied firmly.
My eyes widened at what he said. I didn't think he would say those words to me.
I was annoyed and immediately covered my body with a towel before leaving the bathroom. I saw him taking off his Tuxedo and I was stunned.
His movements suddenly slowed down in my sight. Everything around me went into slow motion at that time. The annoyance I felt disappeared especially when his very handsome and sparkling eyes looked at me.
His gentle eyes while looking at me and his red lips speaking. Every angle of him is perfect!
I didn't hear his preaches anymore and I just stared at him during those times.
"Camilla!"
I was shocked when I realized that I had been stunned while facing him. I was too ashamed of what I had done, but I also wanted to laugh when I saw his frowning face. He was so cute in my eyes at that time.
"Are you listening?" he said with a frown.
He looked at me so badly as if he wanted to eat me alive. But his handsomeness didn't diminish during those times. I don't know why I just smiled and he was even more irritated by what I was showing.
"You're really crazy!" he said irritated.
He went out the door and I was left alone while still covering my whole body with a towel. I looked at our side table where the wedding picture of the two of us was placed. I took it and caressed the part of his face in the picture. I just smiled and felt like I was slowly falling in love with my arrogant husband.
"One day we will be a happy family, Ransom. I will never give up on you and our child," I said with a smile while looking at our wedding picture.
I fixed his bed and fixed myself in the mirror. The night is coming and I'm sure his parents are coming home. I wanted to meet them downstairs so I immediately went downstairs.
I went to the kitchen and wanted to help Lydia. But I remembered what my mother-in-law said. I didn't want them to get angry with me, so I just went to the living room.
I saw Ransom watching TV and I smiled at him. I thought of offering him a massage because I was sure he was tired from work.
"Do you want me to massage your shoulders?" I asked softly.
But he didn't answer, so I just came up to him and slowly grabbed his back and squeezed. He didn't get upset or angry, so I continued what I was doing.
"I know you need this to relax," I said softly.
His parents found us in such a position and her mother got angry. His mother scolded him because of what I did to him.
"Why are you letting Camilla get tired?"his mother asked her angrily.
"You know your wife is pregnant and the doctor has forbidden her to be tired. What entered your mind?!" his mother preached.
"Mom, she is the one who volunteered to massage my shoulders. And I think that's not a heavy job." he insisted.
"No matter what you say, you're still wrong! That's the hard part, you don't know how to accept your mistake!" his father said angrily.
"Okay, I'm sorry! Is it okay?!” he said sarcastically.
"It's very rude....her father couldn't finish what he had to say and grabbed his chest.
We were both very surprised, and I saw that Ransom was confused and came to his father. He helped him sit on the sofa, and called Lydia.
"Lydia! Get some water quickly!" he ordered in a panic.
Lydia quickly took water while I was shaking with nervousness and fear at that time.
Ransom immediately made his father drink water. He apologized for what was said and promised not to repeat it. I could see how much he loved his father through his actions.
I felt pity while watching him. But I didn't know what I would do at that time.
I just stayed standing while looking at them. His mother noticed that I was nervous and she approached me. She made me calm myself down because it could harm the child.
I took a deep breath to calm myself down. I blame myself for what happened because I was actually the one who volunteered to massage Ransom's back. I just wanted to be close to him. I just want to fulfill my responsibility as a wife. But it seems I think everything ended up not being good.
"Does dad have a heart problem, Mom?" I asked.
Mom just nodded and stroked my back. I don't know why I'm so affected by what happened. I thought something bad would happen to his father just because of me.
I saw Ransom's evil look. I knew that he was blaming me again for what had happened, and I accepted that.
After a while, his father felt okay again. I apologized to his father. But he rejected it because he said it wasn't my fault. He just patted me on the shoulder and I just smiled.
I saw Ransom frowning while looking at me. But he looked away every time his father looked at him. He tried to smile so that they wouldn't see or notice it.
"I'm really sorry, Dad. I'm just really stressed from the amount of work at the office," he apologized.
"It's not a heavy job, dad," I insisted.
"My son is very lucky for you, Camilla. I'm sorry I was just too angry," his father also apologized.
After our conversation, we went to the dining table to eat. I still notice Ransom's glances at me. I can't help but be afraid and worried while thinking about what he will say later. I'm sure I'll hear hurt words from him again.
I just had no choice but to be with him as a wife. I understand him and I accept that I was really wrong. The silence settled between the four of us while sharing dinner. But a few seconds later, his father broke it and we were both surprised by what we heard from him.
