Hate, Terms and Conditions のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 41 - チャプター 50

GIORGIOFather’s eyes literally bulged out of his eyes at the information that I just shared to him. I frowned slightly. When did he care about Katherine so much? Maybe, that wasn’t the issue, but something else was nagging at him.“And, you’re just telling me this?” He snapped.I shrugged. “I have gone to the police. They would handle everything over there, so there is obviously nothing to worry about anymore. Everything would be fine,” he said tersely.“Shut up!” He snapped at once.I stared at him in shock. I hated it so much when he did this. “I don’t know what the fuck is going on, but I like to think that I deserve a bit of respect. My fiancé is the one that is missing and I did what I can, so what the fuck are you upset about?” I snapped.Father dragged what was left of his head, and spewed curses from his mouth. The man was so weird, and the strangest person I have ever met, and that was saying something. I honestly didn’t understand him half the time, but there was no way I w

KATHERINEThe amount of relief I felt as at this moment was so intense. Giorgio had come. He was here in the flesh, and nothing was going to happen to me now. I was fine. I was free to go. He would protect me, and make me feel good. I was positive that everything was going to be fine with him. There would be more stress and horror.“You came,” I said breathless.He looked at me dizzily, and I gulped back the tears that threatened to fall. His fingers slowly slid through my cheek, and my heart involuntarily skipped a beat. Was he this worried about me? I knew that he had taken quite good care of me for sometime now, but if felt strange to see that he was really shaken.“I had to come. It will be fine. No-one is going to hurt you now,” he said softly.At that moment, he untied the ropes, and whisked me up. I felt a bit nauseous, but clung to him hard. His hands were firm, and it made me feel safe. Safer than I would have cared to admit. I licked my patched lips, and followed through wit

KATHERINEMr Williams words replayed in my head and I swallowed the lump in my throat. Before I could react, Giorgio turned my face to his, and kissed me squarely on the lips. It was a brush of lips per se, but it left me flustered.This was the second time, he would kiss me. I released a hand on my glass and pressed on his chest. It helped to still my heartbeat, and make me realise that we weren’t alone.“Wow!” The sound of Mr Williams voice made me draw back. I found that I couldn’t look at anyone in the eyes. I was dying of embarrassment, or was it shyness? It was hard to figure it out. Giorgio pulled my hair behind my ears, and I gasped in shock.“Thanks, dad,” he said softly.Then, he rose to his feet, and both father and son had a firm handshake with a slap on the back. I couldn’t help to look at my family who were so quiet since the announcement. If I didn’t know better, I wouldn’t even think they were important part of the guests.Mom had a puzzled expression her face, and I

GIORGIOThere was something about Katherine, it was her spontaneity. But, right now, it was nonexistent. Did I care? Not a hoot!The only thing that was important to me was the subtlety we had to use to convince father about it all. Katherine had informed me that my passivity wasn’t helping her. The thing is that, I wasn’t exposed to the whole wedding celebrations, and dad wasn’t actually making it easier for me. He literally flunked Katherine with beauticians, designers and hair stylists. It was so crazy. If one didn’t know better, they would think that Katherine was getting married to him, and not me.At first, I was pissed by the whole thing, but slowly I started to realise that if I were to make dad see that I was madly in love with Katherine, I would like to whisk her off when no-one was around, he would come around. This must have been some sort of test for dad. I was slightly annoyed that I had not seen this earlier, and it took Katherine’s words for me to do so.This was my pl

KATHERINEMy eyes went round. That was so close. I have no idea what would have happened if we had hit her. The wedding be off, and we would be sitting behind bars were the safest options. I cringed inwardly, hoping that wouldn’t be the case.“Kitty, please sit tight. I would be right back,” Giorgio said firmly.Before I could ask him anything, he was already out of the car. I watched as he took her to the other side of the road, trying to explain things to her. I had no idea what those things curtailed, but hopefully it would be clarified.Her disposition had made it looked like an old woman when she had leaned into the car, but watching her from the safety of the car, made me feel like I had judged too quickly. She wasn’t actually a young lady, but she wasn’t old either.I bet she was just a couple of years above us. I sighed. This marriage had made me feel like I was getting old fast. I had no idea if that was a good thing or not. Yes, I was in college, but that didn’t mean that I
