Chapter 56 My words doesn't matter
Arianna's POV
I exhaled softly, staring at him as he winced, his face being bandaged. I caused it, however shouldn't the perperator be here? Everything felt blank before me, the nurse tending to his wounds and prescribing some drugs.
I guess, he's bothered about work not humans. The thought of that made my mind reminisce over what he had told me. Earlier, when he had called Ravyen's name, I was stunned, and had to make enquiry on how my brother knew his name.
He claims everyone does because he was quite popular but he never told me where exactly he was popular in. Kylian keeps reminding me that Ravyen was a dangerous man and would eventually harm me, just the way he killed his ex-wife Bianca.
To be sincere, I was scared and tensed too. Kylian wasn't saying the exact words but I knew he was trying to keep me away from ravyen. He'd prefer his dirty profession to me. I know how kylian can be, assuming that everyone I meet is dangerous as though he wants me to remain single all my life.
I guess he was assuming. Ravyen was popular in the business world. I could confirm it because he sometimes takes me to work, I get to crack business deals for him and currently, I was his secretary. No one objected to it though, well until I get my company, I'd break out from him.
The part that freaks me out was breaking out from him when the contract ends. I was an adult, and I can make decisions for myself. My eyes were fixed on him, I whimpered as he did, throwing a fit and reminding me my husband caused this.
Well, I couldn't even defend ravyen. He was trying to protect me, but then he went to far, even when I tried to stop him. It only means he doesn't regard me and my words doesn't matter.
I couldn't watch him in pain and besides he keeps screeching and yelling. So I instructed the nurse to know him out for a while. She injected him and he fell back on the bed.
It were as though he was paralyzed and he shut his eyes. Sometimes, I wonder who is the eldest among us. A lot of things were in my mind. Kylian shuldn't have left me in suspense.
What part of ravyen have I not seen? I tried so hard to believe he was wrong. I had a few discussions with the nurse and when I want to leave with him. Although he was discharged already but I wanted to leave his ward for a moment first.
I bite my lips and step outside the ward, with a doleful only to be greeted by him. He was right here all alone, like a knight he always claim to be. I was awe stricken as our eyes met.
He was peering through the glassy window, I sense he was anxious and nervous. His lips were tighten and when our eyes locked, he heaved a sigh, leaning on the wall and placing a frown.
He also had bruise on his head as blood drool from that spot. He melt my heart with the doleful way he stared. I was mad at him but still yet wanted him around.
There was silence between us, possibly we just didn't know what to say to each other but our gaze said it all. I thought he wouldn't come, I thought he was away for a business, however, he was here all along.
Although, I didn't know how long he had been standing because I was inside all through with Kylian. Ravyen pulled out of the wall and then stood opposite me.
He Hunched posture He was tuttering close but still maintained a distance, his feet pointed inwards as he quickened his breath. I found trickles of sweat on his forehead and he was biting his lips as though contemplating on what to do.
I ducked my head at him, wondering what next he'd pull. "You were mad and I..." He licked his lower lips and then took a glimpse at his palm. I caught him, he had a write up on his palm and trying to read the lines to me!
I lifted my chin with pursed lips and sneer at him. I was freaking out already. He still finds himself charming, running his free fingers into his hair.
He tilted his head at me, furrowed his brow and juggled his shoulders. "You were mad, angry with me, and...fuck what did Frank write?" He muttered scruntizing his palm.
His voice was hoarse as he was seriously pointing the errors in the write-up. He narrowed his eyes, detesting the writing on his palm. Seriously? Was he trying to read a poem for me and then forgot his lines?
I rolled my eyes in annoyance and disdain. He lifted his head and then shrugged his shoulders. "Maybe i'd just say it anyhow you want it"
He clears his throat and I was disgusted already, fusing and growling at him. "Aria..." I scoffed and flickers my fingers at him to move away because his appearance only stirred more anger in me.
He didn't want to go and quickly began to explain that it was accidental but I didn't want to listen to any of his lame excuses. Well, anyone could say I was overreacting but then, ravyen was at fault, for not listening to me, for his indifferent attitude towards me at my mom's funeral, for ghosting me in the car and I think his vile acts towards me was recurring.
Hastily, I tried to walk pass him but he held my hand, swivel me to slam my back on the wall and then he placed hands on a wall around me. I arched my back as my blood shot.
He was close, staring into my eyes and I rapidly breath. I placed my hand on heart, anxious and shaking. The skin on my face tightened as I developed a scathing tone.
However, I tried to put a stop to how nervous I was whenever he was this close. I lifted my head, chest pushed out and stood tall.
He was tanding in my personal space angled towards me. He ran a knuckle down my cheek and I flinched. He was staring into my eyes and I got confused.
"I apologized, do you think it was easy doing that?" He snapped staring into my eyes and I suck my breath. What? Did he just say he apologized?
Judging from the act he just displayed, he never said the words 'i am sorry'
