67. I have to be strong(part-11).
As I walked towards his bed, I saw him sleeping peacefully. I sat beside him resting my back on the headrest. When I turned towards him, I saw how pleasant he is. I started stroking his hair gently and he moved towards me in response.
I slid my hand behind his neck making him sleep on his arm and he adjusted his head on my arm comfortable in his sleep. I was looking at him still stroking his hair when I saw him murmuring something. I went near him to hear and...
"It's all my fault. I'm sorry." That was what he's murmuring again and again. I can't explain how much it hurt me. He's blaming himself even though he did nothing."It's not. It was never your fault, Adam." I whispered back while placing my forehead on his.My voice was trembling and I was feeling the same pain as he is. He was crying because he couldn't be here and I was crying because I couldn't do anything even if I was here and that hurts a lot. But I can't show my weakness....at l

Married To My Rival. 68. It's all my fault(part-12).
The whole drive went with both of us talking absolutely nothing. The person whose mouth never used to shut up is now staring at the road from the glassed window in silence while constantly reminding himself that he's guilty of everything that has happened. I pulled the car when we reached the graveyard. It reminds me of the funeral....again, which funeral? both. Both the woman who loved me died as I saw them helplessly doing nothing. I was a freak, I have always been, Adam thinks he's the one at fault but I know that it's me. I was there when both my mums left their last breaths and what did I do?, nothing, I stood there watching both of them like a freaking show and done nothing. I can never forgive myself, I hate myself for doing nothing. No one blames me for anything, even Master or dad, but everyone knows that if I had taken care of them with full consciousness then at least one of them would have lived. I'm a total idiot, I should be the one buried here,
Married To My Rival. 69. He spoke!(part-13).
I went straight into Adam's room. I saw him still sitting on the bed in the same place and staring at the blank floor or the wall like his world ended. Previously, I left him thinking he needed to be alone and he needs time to think about it, but if that's what makes him weaker, and fragile to break down and loses himself in that constant pain and guilt.I won't and I can't take it anymore. But, still, I can't make it rude or make him uncomfortable, he's on the edge to break and every wrong step will lead down to his breaking point. I slowly went towards him and sat on the edge of the bed in front of him."Adam," I called in a low soft tone. All his response was to come out of his trance and turn his head towards me."You had dinner?" I asked. He shook his head in response."You want to have it?" I asked with a small head tilt expecting him to speak. But all his reaction was shaking his head."Why?" I asked and he didn't res
Married To My Rival. 70. I don't know?!(part-14).
"How many times should I say, so you will stop blaming yourself?." I asked while gripping his shoulders tightly."Never. It has always been my fault. I should have come home when mum asked. Then she would have been here." He continued blaming himself."ADAM, STOP BLAMING YOURSELF," I shouted on his face."I lost someone I love and I know how it feels. You would never know. So, shut the hell up." He shouted back.I let out a small scoff and let his hands go. All the strength I have been holding till now just broke into pieces. His voice echoed in my ears and that broke my heart more. I took a few steps back when my legs started losing their strength. I looked at Adam and his face was showing regret. He regrets immediately what he said, but it's too late."Mar-" Before he could say anything I stopped him by showing my hand."I don't know how it feels to lose somebody? right. I don't, maybe I would never." I said w
Married To My Rival. 71. First day.
The next day, I woke up when I heard my phone ringing loud. I groaned and answered it."Hello?" My voice was still sleepy and I didn't mind who was on the other side."Babe?. Are you still sleeping?" The familiar voice woke me fully from my sleep and I sat back in bed."Li. Why did you call early in the morning?. What time is it?" I asked while looking at my phone."Stop looking for time. It's half past 8. I thought you were in the gym." She asked with a confused tone."I was tired from the marriage yesterday. I think I overslept." I answered while rubbing my hair lazily."It's just been a day, you got away from and you became lazy?. I can't believe it." She said with a sigh and that's when the reality of yesterday's night hit me. The conversation I had with that asshole and the fight. Gosh, why do I have to remember it first thing in the morning? My mood's spoiled."Lyn?. You there?"
Married To My Rival. 72. Was I caring for her?(Part-1).
The next morning, I woke up at my usual time. Thinking of all I did yesterday, was I too harsh on her. It was her arrogance and attitude I have a problem with. I pushed those thoughts away and got fresh up and went to the gym downstairs. This house was the same as the previous one but it just had a different room and rooms for the gym and other ones. I constantly checked the time but this idiot wasn't anywhere to be found. Is she still sleeping?. How can she call herself a model when she can't even maintain her body?. She really is lazy and I still doubt my professor for saying she's the top model of France College of Modeling. I don't care for her and that's what matters. After the workout. I went into the kitchen and grabbed a juice bottle and poured it into a glass. I drank it and started preparing breakfast. Should I prepare for her too?. Umm....urgh fine. I turned on the music and started preparing breakfast. Made some bacon and omelet and th
Married To My Rival. 73. Ralphs into you(part-2).
After some time, Martin and Ralph came back."Where is the other?" Martin asked."In their room," I replied not lifting my head from the files."What do girls have so much to do in their room?" Martin asked with a soft scoff."I don't know, but Celine and Evelyn do. They can go on hours talking about their modeling works and crafting ideas for their new designs and yeah, reading cliche novels too." Ralph added. That explains her arrogant behavior. And cliche novels? geez, grow up girls."That explains a lot," Martin added."But this time it must be Evelyn whining about Celine's departure," Ralph added."Celine's leaving?" Martin asked with a doubtful face. Well, I was doubtful too. Those two were inseparable."Yeah, she got a contract offer from one of the advertising studios in Paris. So, she's moving back." Ralph informed."That's really good news," Martin said with

Gosh, she escaped and without any delay, Adam started his business talk. Do we lack that much fiance?. And he's the photographer?. God, I don't want the past to return. I'm really not the back then Evelyn to fight with this idiot over and over again, I'm pissed already.Martin, really is a funny guy, he really didn't know about the job?. After efforts or so-called efforts made by Adam, Martin agreed and what made me more surprised is what happened next. Adam asked Ralph to be Martin's assistant.I thought he would agree and be with Martin but this guy always lets us surprised or worse shocked. And when Adam revealed the reasons for the companies doom, they really made sense. Damn, how poor is Lawrenson's management?.What the hell, dad. Whatever, I don't have anything to talk about business. I hated it from the beginning. The heavy work, the things we had to do, the endless meetings, the late-night works, and especially no time for food.I don't eat enoug

The next day, I did my daily work out and when I was in the gym, surprisingly I found the idiot and her friend. So, she does wake up every morning. I shook my head and continued my workout. We all ended after an hour and I went inside the kitchen to make grab some juice.I drank the juice and was looking for the items in food to make breakfast when I heard Celine calling me."Adam." I turned towards her. I personally do not fight with her and I don' treat her the same way too. It's with Evelyn. Besides, Celine never treated me like how Evelyn treats me."Yeah?" I replied."You're looking for breakfast items?" She asked."Hmm. The items will be enough for the breakfast." I said while opening the door wide for her to see."I'll help you with it then." She said with a smile."It's fine. I'll make for three. Just tell me what you both want." I replied."Anything you will have." She re
