Chapter 9

Amelia point of View:

"so tell me how all this happened?" I asked softly while taking a bite of my food.

Ace and my Dad looked at each other before dropping their spoons.

"Dad was sick, really sick and he was at the point of dying" Ace started.

my eyes wide out before looking at Dad who just looked away from me.

"we didn't want to tell you because we knew you were also going through alot" Ace mumbled with a frown.

"so uhm one day Frank and Toney came over, they came looking for you, and I wasn't around." Ace mumbled with a pause.

"Dad fainted and they helped him get to the hospital before calling me." He said.

"Lucie helped Dad out, he payed for everything and-" Ace mumbled with a sigh.

"and? what " I asked softly looking at both of them.

"and in return he wants you to forgive and marry him" Ace said making my eyes wide out.

"Marry him, that's fucking crazy, how much did he pay I'll work and pay him back " I said with a raised eyebrow.

but the look dad and my brother shared, I knew it was more than what I could get.

"tell me this is a joke Dad " I whispered softly.

I didn't want to marry him, after all he did to me, now he wants marriage?

this has to be a fucking joke.

"I'm sorry Lia, I didn't know what to do, I promise his a nice man his not like before " Father begged.

Shaking my head, I looked at my food, I didn't feel like eating anymore.

"I'll be in my room" I mumbled before walking away before Any of them will say anything.

why? why all this.

why all this now, I didn't want anything to do with Lucie not after what he did.

but why would he want marriage.

was this another game of his?

questions by questions but I still didn't get an answer.

closing my room door, I lay down on the bed.

was all this money his doing also?

if yes, then I'm fucking done for for real.

Why would he help my father anyways, he knows I'm related to him, so why.

if I keep asking myself all this questions, I won't get a reply until I find him and ask.

so I rolled off my bed, grabbed my hoodie, and phone.

and made my way outside.

"where can I find him?" I asked my brother whose eyes wide out.

"I can take you there, but uhm frank and the others are also with him" he explained while walking towards the door.

"don't care, I wanna meet Lucie, not them" I replied with a frown.

nodding his head, we walked towards the door then walked towards his car.

when we were both in.

Ace looked at me before letting out a breath.

"please don't hate Dad for this, you can be angry at me, but not him" he begged.

"how did we get all this house and money?" I asked softly.

"uhm this is from Lucie father, he said I can work under him, so all this money is from me, I built this house, everything is ours" he said.

nodding my head, I looked outside the window, having nothing else to say.

My brother let's out a sigh, then drove off.
