My Sister Gave Away My Bride Chapter 8
The day Cleo and I got married, I saw Lillian again.She came in a wheelchair. Liam was pushing her.He looked at me like he wanted to put me through a wall.I did not understand the hatred in his eyes. I was the one who had pulled him out of that life. I paid his school fees. I gave him a chance to get away from his abusive father and gambling mother.Some people really do bite the hand that feeds them.Lillian's eyes were full of regret. I didn't return the look.During the vows, she tried to roll forward. Liam grabbed the back of her chair."You're already married to me. Look at me.""Silas is your uncle now. Give it up."But she clearly had no intention of letting go.That night, while I was changing out of my suit, she wheeled herself into my dressing room."Silas… I regret it."She looked at me expectantly, as if I would forgive her like I always had.I said nothing.She took my silence as hope and rushed to explain."Silas, I just made one mistake. Why won't you t

I closed the curtain.Cleo, behind me, propped her chin on her hand. Her eyes were soft."Lillian, do you want help?"I was already pulling my shirt on. "Yes."Cleo lifted an eyebrow. "I expected you to insist on doing it yourself."I glanced at her. I was not running a charity. The reason I had agreed to Cleo's terms was that she had something I could use. She was offering, and I was not going to turn it down.The Gates patriarch still ran the company. Cleo held several important positions, but she didn't have real control. As long as she remained unmarried and had no child, the patriarch would never hand the company over to her.However, she could still make things difficult for her older brother.While the Gates family was in turmoil, White Industries was not doing any better.Liam could not secure investment, and several clients openly mocked him. He could not take it. At one meeting, he poured a glass of wine over a client's head, completely burning that last relationship

I held a beat. I had not expected her.After the public disaster of the wedding, none of the elders on either side had reached out to me.I gave Cleo a small, reassuring look and followed Mrs. Gates into the coffee shop next door.She ordered me an iced Americano."Honey. Just like your mother. Always the same drink."She reached to pat my shoulder. I stepped back.Her hand stayed in the air a second too long before she lowered it."You and I have grown distant. The things Lillian did–your uncle and I had no idea. We've already spoken to her about it. She regrets it now.""You and Lillian have been together half your lives. I know you still love her. You can't let someone like Liam come between you."She sounded patient, almost persuasive, like a concerned elder.I let a faint smile pass through my mind, but kept my face neutral."Mrs. Gates, what do you want me to do?"Her eyes lit up. She thought I was wavering."I know you didn't mean what you said at the wedding about

Lillian was openly begging now.I did not look at her again.The rest of her life would be spent in a wheelchair.That night, Cleo dropped me at home. I declined her invitation to come up.The moment I opened the door, a vase flew past my face and shattered against the wall behind me.It missed me by an inch.Charlotte stood in the foyer, screaming."Silas, you really had to break Lillian and Liam apart?!"What did you give Lillian to make her legs stop working? Go fix her right now!"Otherwise, don't blame me for not recognizing you as my brother!"It had been less than thirty minutes, yet Charlotte already knew. Other than Liam, I couldn't think of anyone else who would have told her.As for this sister of mine–ever since she kicked me in the chest for Liam, I had already given up on her.My voice turned cold. "I should be the one saying I don't have a heartless sister like you."Ignoring the shock on her face, I kicked her out the door."Someone like you doesn't deserv

For an instant, Lillian was back in the dark of the year after the accident. She turned to me without thinking."Silas, help me!"She crawled toward me, trying to grab my hand.I stepped back. I didn't let her reach me."Your husband is Liam. What are you asking me for?"She read the disgust on my face and began to beg."Silas, you love me. You said you would never give up on me."Cleo Gates stepped between us before I had to answer."Niece, as I said, he is your uncle by marriage. Hands off."Lillian's face went pale.Liam dropped to his knees in front of me."Brother, I get it. You're angry I took Lillian. Even so, you shouldn't have rushed into marrying a… a…"He was about to say Cleo was old, but when he looked at her face, he could not finish.He pivoted. "Even if you and Lillian aren't going to be together, you're still a doctor. You can't abandon her. You've been the one treating her leg."Liam knew how to push it. Lillian looked at me expectantly.I reached out a

Lillian miscarried.When she came out of the procedure, she had her men drag me to her bedside. A bodyguard pinned my back with his foot and forced me down."Silas, you are paying for what you did."Her face was a mask. She gave a small head movement. The bodyguard kicked me. I went onto my elbow. The skin opened.She did not look. The bodyguard pulled me up."Don't worry. It's almost over."A bad feeling rose up. I tried to go for the door, but the bodyguard had me back on the floor in a step.She got out of bed slowly. Her eyes had something in them that did not belong on her face."Lillian, what are you doing?"She put her foot in my stomach.The breath went out of me. The world went white. I curled around the pain.I had spent every dollar I had on her legs. The legs she was using right now were what I had given her.So she could do this.It was not an answer I could find.She was not done. She gripped my chin and made me look at her."Silas, the one thing you should
