Chains of Forbidden Love Chapter 34
Marcus's POVI felt at ease now that we were finally okay.Earlier, fear filled me when I heard Lillian crying in the bathroom, refusing to talk to me. I was terrified that she might end our relationship, but now that things were resolved, I could finally breathe."How long do you plan to stay here, Marcus?" Martha asked during breakfast.I glanced at Lillian, and she seemed curious about my response. I turned my attention back to Martha."I have to leave tomorrow morning. I still have work left in Washington," I explained.Martha nodded and then looked at Lillian, who tried to hide her sadness behind a smile."Does Gabriel know that you are here?" Martha asked, so I turned my attention to her again."I don't know. I rushed to the airport when I heard that you had already left. I didn't get a chance to tell anyone that I was flying to London," I replied.Martha nodded and resumed eating, so I looked at Lillian once more.She was quiet and avoided looking at me. Under the table, I he

Lillian's POVI woke up to a gentle kiss on my cheek, and as I opened my eyes, Marcus stood before me.He looks like he is ready to leave."Sorry for waking you," he said before sitting on the bed's edge. I crawled toward him, hugging his waist.He chuckled softly, stroking my hair tenderly."I have to leave, Love," he said, when I heard that I pouted, sadness creeping into me."Already?" I asked, the heaviness evident.Marcus sighed, nodding. "I'll be back before you know it," he said, trying to comfort me with a smile, but the sadness lingered."I'll wait for you," I said.Marcus smiled, gazing at my face, then planted a soft kiss on my lips."Don't attract too many boys, please," he joked, and I laughed."I'm not attracting them," I defended myself."Why do you have to be this beautiful, anyway?" he teased, making my cheeks blush.I playfully slapped his arm and glared, but he just laughed."I'll be back next weekend. I cooked breakfast for you, make sure to eat those," he said.

Marcus's POVI focused my gaze on the computer screen, studying the document containing the statement my client had given me."You're pulling all-nighters again?" Alice said, stepping into my office.I turned to look at her and nodded silently.I thought she would leave, but instead, she sat down in the chair across from my desk, where clients usually sit."Do you need anything?" I asked.Alice stared at my face for a while before sighing heavily."Have you looked at yourself in the mirror?" she asked, her eyes fixed on me."What do you mean?" I asked, confused by her question."You look like a mess, Marcus. Have you seen the dark circles around your eyes, and you've lost so much weight in just a few days from staying up all night and skipping meals," she said.Taking a deep breath, I set the documents aside and focused entirely on Alice."I have to win this case. I need to find evidence-" Alice let out a sarcastic laugh, interrupting what I am about to say."And you still have a mont

Marcus's POVI stared at my phone screen after the call ended.Gabriel's words kept echoing in my mind."Marcus!" A voice snapped me out of my thoughts. I looked up to see Alice at the door, her eyebrows furrowed with concern."Are you okay?" she asked, her eyes filled with worry.I took a deep breath and nodded."Do you need anything?" I asked."I have a trial today, do you want to attend?" she asked, and I nodded again, walking out of my office with her.We left the law firm together, driving separately to the court.After a few minutes, we arrived at the court, and Alice headed towards the defence side while I sat in the front row.As the trial began, I found myself unable to concentrate. My mind was drifting, lost in my thoughts."Marcus," Alice called, bringing me back to the present."It's done. Let's go," she said, and I looked around to realize I was the only one left on the bench."Yeah, sorry," I said, standing up and leaving the courtroom.I could feel Alice's concerned gl

Lillian's POVI stared at my phone screen, waiting for Marcus to call. I had been doing it for hours, but my eyes just got sore from the constant staring, and still, I received nothing.Eventually, I heard the doorbell ring, and I rushed out of bed, hurrying down the stairs. I almost tripped, but I managed to reach the door without any injury.With excitement, I swung the door open, hoping to see Marcus, but my hopes were dashed when I saw Alexander standing outside the house, wearing a huge smile.My mouth gaped in shock and disappointment, but before I could even recover, he pulled me into a tight hug."I missed you, Lillian," he said, gazing at my face with happiness in his eyes.I forced an awkward smile and widened the door's opening."Come in," I said, guiding him towards the living room."Do you like it here?" he asked."Yeah," I simply responded, taking a seat across from him."Do you want anything? Coffee? Tea?" I offered, but he shook his head."I am fine, Lillian. Where is

Lillian's POVAwkwardness engulfed us, but I couldn't muster the courage to voice my thoughts. Instead, I smiled awkwardly and continued eating, trying to forget what he said.I had an idea what he meant by those words, but I feared confronting it as I knew it would create complications.Silence settled in, and Alexander contented himself with stealing glances at my side, searching for the perfect moment to speak, which he never found."L-Let's go," I finally said when I finished eating.I wiped the side of my lips, looking at Alexander, waiting for his response.He stared at my face once again, and then he let out a deep breath and nodded his head.After settling the bill, we stepped out of the restaurant and headed towards our car.Alexander opened the door for me, and then he walked to the other side and sat in the driver's seat. He turned his head towards me."It's still early, let's go somewhere else," he suggested.I wanted to disagree, but seeing the anticipation in his eyes ma

Lillian's POVAs I gazed at his face, guilt overwhelmed me.I could see the pain in his eyes.He looked at me as though I had betrayed him."Marcus..." I softly called his name and tried to hold his hand, but he brushed away my grasp."Do you believe in me, Lillian?" he asked, peering into my eyes. Faint hope shimmered in his gaze, expecting me to say yes, but I fell silent... lost for words.How can I accuse Alexander of raping someone when I've known him my entire life, and all he showed me was kindness?Alexander became my companion and sort of a second dad when my biological father ignored me.He treated everyone with kindness and was good to people, so I can't fathom if he is truly capable of doing such things."Alexander is a good man..." I said, and when he heard those words, he looked at me in disbelief, a sarcastic smile gracing his lips."Because he is a great pretender, Lillian. Everything he has shown you are his good sides, but in fact, he is nothing but a devil who abuse
Chains of Forbidden Love Chapter 41
Lillian's POVI woke up to a gentle kiss on my cheek, and as I opened my eye, I saw Marcus gazing at me with adoration in his eyes."Good morning," he said, his smile beaming at me.I returned the smile, staring back at his face, wondering if this was all a dream. To make sure, I pecked him on the lips, and when I felt his warm, soft lips, my smile widened."Good morning," I greeted in return."You should get ready, you'll be late for school," he reminded me, and suddenly, I remembered that my classes started today. I jumped out of bed and rushed towards the bathroom, eager to make a good impression and arrive at class extra early.After a quick bath, I dressed in a black turtleneck and black pants, along with a trench coat to ward off the cold. I completed the outfit with a pair of boots. Keeping my makeup simple, I wanted to ensure I didn't look too pale. Once ready, I headed to the kitchen where Marcus and Martha were busy preparing breakfast.Marcus walked over, taking my hand,
