Lonely Bride

Sarah’s pov

I know he is mad at me for giving false hope to Bella, but again, that does not give him the right to hurt her.

I know the reality by myself, and I will inform her of the same when I find the right time, but right now, I know it is not the time to inform her of anything like that.

This small piece of information will break her.

She has a father figure in her life for the first time, and getting the father’s love is also something new for her fragile heart. She is attached to Sean, and involving her in this mess won’t go well.

I fed her as well as myself, and we both ate from the same plate. Ivan had left the kitchen when I started feeding Bella. I know he is angry, but I will speak to him once he is a little calmer.

After feeding Bella and feeding myself, I walk back to the living room.

I looked at the wall clock, and it was almost Bella’s bedtime. I looked around to catch glimpses of Ivan but found none. I wanted to go to the room we are staying in, as Bella has already started yawning.

Looking at my face, one of the guards said, “In case you want to take a rest, that one is your room.” He pointed towards the closed door, and I followed his sight and walked towards the room after giving him a small thank you.

Bella fell asleep the moment she hit the bed, and so did I. Finally, I got to know that I was exhausted today.

My eyes fluttered open when a strong urge to use the restroom hit my brain cells. Among many of these irritating problems, a pregnant woman goes through Using the restroom again and again.

After finishing my business, I came back to my room, and I looked around and found the room a little dark while the dim lights were on.

It’s still night, or maybe early morning.

I walked to my bed and checked my phone; it was showing me 4. 55 in the morning.

I sat and looked at my phone, as sleep was far away from me.

I again checked the time and calculated that it must be evening or late evening in Australia, so I decided to call Nathan.

“Hello.” I heard his loud voice, and somehow I was shaken up at hearing it. He never talks to anyone like this.

“Nathan, it’s me,” I said, not understanding what else to say.

“Sarah? Where are you?” His worried voice comes out of his vocal cord, and I smile.

I informed him about everything that had happened and where I was right now.

“Are you out of your mind already?” Nathan’s voice boomed on the phone and made me stunned all of a sudden.

He has never shouted at me like this, ever.

“Keep the phone on and send me your location right away.” He barked.

I did as he said and kept my phone in my ear again.

“I am reaching there as soon as possible; till then, don’t do anything stupid. Don’t tell anyone you spoke to me. Do you get it?'” His voice was cold, and I shuddered hearing it.

Okay.” This one word came out as a whisper, but I know he heard it.

“Be with Ivan always. I will always be with Ivan. Do you understand?” His impersonal voice again reached my ear, and I nodded and said a small yes.

Saying nothing, he hung up on me, and by then I was over with this call with a little hope of getting some more sleep a few miles away.

When my stomach grumbled, I got the hint that my babies were hungry.

And the hope of getting some more sleep has long since left me, so I got up and walked towards the kitchen.

The house is annoyingly calm and gives me some kind of chill. I guess my mind and body have gotten used to seeing people at whatever time it is.

Sean’s guards are always around in the house, even at night, so I never felt empty, but here everything looks so calm, and this pin-drop silence is not something I am going to enjoy.

However, today I am leaving here, so I don’t have to worry about anything, nor do I need to get used to this.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Once I opened the fridge, I found some ham and bread, so I decided to make a quick ham and cheese sandwich.

By the time I was eating the sandwich, I had heard some noise from the boat. I peek out from the window while making the sandwich and notice a few bouts and a few people getting down.

That reminded me of Ivan’s words that the staff would come tomorrow, so finally, they are here.

Ignoring them, I again went back to my work and finished it as soon as possible, as my sugar was reaching its peak.

I took the plate, sat on the chair, and started devouring the sandwich.

I finished in no time and took a happy and satisfying deep breath.

I look out, and it’s still showing me only darkness. However, the orange sky was giving me a hint of sunrise anytime soon.

Opening the door of the deck, I walked outside, and a smile crept on my lips.

The wind was calm and pleasing to my body. And the smell of the ocean always gives me warmth.

Removing my shoes, I walked barefoot in the cold sand.

I walk for some time along the bay of the beach, but then I decide to explore the houses around.

I can see this house is nicely made, and some more outhouses may also be for house staff or guests.

This complete gray and blue house reminds me of Sean’s house, which is white and blue. A little similar, but a better one, I guess.

This looks like a little old construction, and that one was new, I guess, or maybe nicely maintained. I never know, but that was a better one for sure.

My running horse of thoughts comes to a halt when I hear a voice. I despise the most, or, let’s say, the owner of the voice despises me the most.

“Bring her to me right now.”

My body went into alert mode.

What is he doing here?

The sliding door of the deck of that small house was open, and I could see them.

“I have never thought you were so stupid. How much money have I wasted on you?” I heard his angry voice, and his red face was very clear in my vision.
