Chapter 28

Mae's Pov

I was still sitting on the chair near the hospital bed where Kyle was lying and he was holding my right hand

"Won't you let go of my hand??"

"Nope, maybe when I let you go I'll lose you again" he replied seriously

"I will not be lost"

He smiled

"By the way, Gwen told me that you forced your mommy to sell your rest house and also your car so that you could buy our farm and return it to me"

" I told Gwen to hide to you first " He said disappointly " I want to get your farm back to you and so that your parents didn't force you marry someone you don't love"

"But how did you know that?" I asked him

"I asked our private investigator to investigate. I'm sorry I didn't tell you right away"

He investigate??

"I-its ok" I said with a smile "but you don't need to help me"

"I want to help you Mae because I love you"

"Oh how are you cousin??"

I was taken a back by what he said

Crista just entered with Ms. Gwen, president and Andrew

"Yeah"

"It's good"

"Mae"

I look at Ms Gwen

"Your cousin want to telling you that he can't stay for now. Because there's an emergency and he needs to go "

Emergency?? What kind of emergency is Eros going to?

"Thank you" I replied to Ms. Gwen

"Oh, son," said Kyle's mom, placing a plastic bag on the table.

"Thanks mom" replied kyle with a smile

"Edward"

And I was stunned to know who it was

Alexa?

"What are you doing here??" asked Ms. Gwen

"I'm here to see Edward my boyfriend"

Has this girl gone crazy??

Ms Gwen laugh

"You are not my son's girlfriend remember you left him 2 years ago??"

"Yes aunty and I'm sorry that's why I came here"

" You have no place here so leave " Ms Gwen said

"I'm not leaving especially since I have a reason to see Edward"

"And what is that??"

"Edward and I made love at the resort in Palawan"

I felt that Kyle tightened his grip on my hand so I leaned against him

"Don't believe her" he said softly to me

I smiled at him

"Don't worry, I will only believe in you"

Ms Gwen laughed again

"Don't lie to me Alexa, we believe my brother that there nothing happened between the both of you" Ms Gwen said

" You are not there to tell me that your brother and I didn't made love " Alexa answered flatly

"No, but I know that even if you are the only woman left in this world. My brother will never love you again "

I saw that Alexa was very angry

Ms. Gwen approached her

"Didn't you see that my brother doesn't love you anymore so leave" said Ms Gwen pointed at the door, "Remember this Alexa, I will not allow my brother to return to you especially since I still remember what you did to him before!"

Alexa did nothing but leave the room

Why is Ms. Gwen is so angry with Alexa?

What did Alexa do to Kyle to make Ms Gwen so angry?

After 1 month

We are now outside the airport with my cousin Eros and Kyle

Kyle is now holding my hand

"Are you sure you don't want me to come with you??"

"I will fix my problem first and after that i'll call you and I will send you there to introduce you to mom and dad"

I decided to come home to fix everything

For everything to be ok

He hugged me

"I'm gonna miss you"

"Me too but it's only temporary until it's ok"

He loosened from the hug

"If they don't agree, I will immediately go there and I will talk to them"

I just smiled at him

I faced Eros

"Cousin, thank you for everything"

"You're still coming back, aren't you? Don't be like that"

I know Eros is not happy right now especially since he and Suzzaine just broke up

"Alright, you might be late for your flight," Eros said

I took my suitcase that Eros was holding and walked into the airport

You can do it, Mae

You can handle them

And will be able to postpone or maybe cancel the wedding

After a few hours the plane I was on landed

I was leaving the airport when I saw our butler Linda

I approached her and hugged her

"Young lady"

I let go of the hug

"How are you??"

"It's ok" I answered

"Good thing you came back here "

"Of course, I can't hide them forever"

She took my suitcase and put it in the compartment of the car

She opened the car door and I got in. She followed and the car started

"How are mom and dad??"

"They're ok" she forced a smile

"Is there a problem?"

She faced me

"Because since you left they tried to find you. Your father was furious he took away all your sources of money"

"Yes, he did that but I was able to finish my studies"

" Really?? How?? "

" My cousin Eros help me to study besides, the owner of the university helps me too."

"It's good then"

"Are they mad at me??"

Linda didn't answer

"Why did I ask?" I said with a soft laugh

"Just understand your mom and dad"

I looked out the car window

I hope it's that easy

It's that easy to understand them even though they are forcing me to marry the man who hurt me before

The car we were riding in entered the farm

Hope you can do it

Our car stopped at the mansion

Linda held my hand so I leaned on her

"You can do it.. You can do it"

I nodded

Our driver opened the car door in front of me

I took a deep breath before getting out of the car

I walked into the mansion

"Oh, fix that I want it fixed" said mom as she faced our assistant

"Mom"

Mom took care of me

"Mae my daughter"

She walked towards me and hugged me

I hugged her back

" How are you?? "

"I'm ok mom" I said with a smile

"Oh, your good daughter is here"

I saw a middle-aged man with a walking stick coming towards me

dad

I walked closer to him as if I was going to shoot him

*Dad!!*

Dad slapped me

I was holding my face

"After you left you still want to come back!"

"Alvin that's is your daughter "

"Daughter?? Disobedient daughter! And why did she go to that place huh? to flirt!"

"Dad, I didn't flirt I studied there in fact I graduated in senior high and I'm the salutatorian" I said with a smile

"I don't know anything! You and Kent are engaged and you're getting married"

"But I don't want to marry him dad"

"And why? Back then you defended him to us and said you loved him so much then what now? You say you don't want to marry him.. What is the reason you don't want him anymore?"

I couldn't answer

Dad came to me

"Remember that our farm is mortgaged to the Villanueva's and the only way to get it back is for you to marry Kent"

I am now in my room sitting on the bed

"Young lady"

I was relieved to the person who called me

Ist Linda our butler

I wiped the tears from my eyes with my hand

She came to me and sat next to me

" You alright? "

"Do I look okay??"

She pulled my hair and stuck it in my ear

"If you are patient with your father he just doesn't want to lose what he worked for. One day it will all go to you so he doesn't want to lose it"

"I didn't like all this I didn't want it"

"Why didn't you tell him your real reason? Why you don't want to marry Kent? I'm sure he'll understand you"

"Just like you said, papa doesn't want to lose the farm and the mansion even if I tell papa my reason, even if my marriage with Kent doesn't work out, the farm and mansion will be lost"

"I don't know and the Villanueva's are pressuring you. Kent cheated on you before and now he wants to marry you"

Linda sighed

"Maybe there is another way for you to get the farm and the mansion back?"

"I don't want to rely on him because it's embarrassing that he will find a way to return the farm and mansion to us"

"He?? Who is he??"

I took my cell phone from my pocket and opened it, clicked on the gallery and clicked on his picture and showed it to Linda.

"Who is the handsome boy??"

"He is Kyle Edward Austen. I met him . He is the son of the owner of the university that I attended there at first. He was very cold hearted. "

" You love him? "

Linda made me feel better

"I love him so much that I will do everything so that everything will be ok so that there will be no obstacles between the two of us" I answered seriously to Linda
