CHAPTER 71

CHAPTER 71~KIM~“I’ve never known Catherine to be this strong willed.” I said to Richard.The mansion had a large premises that was basically a marble floor. It was cleaned thoroughly daily and was now a reflective surface.“My mother can get insufferable,” Richard responded. “Especially when she’s excited about something.”“Aren’t you disturbed?”“About?” he responded to my question with one of his own.“The fact that we’re lying to her?” I ended that as a question, because I assumed it was obvious enough.Richard was quiet for a while and that was my answer.“Well, I am, but like…you will get pregnant eventually.” I saw his attempt to wave off the topic. I did not try to push any further.Catherine made it clear that we had to be on this walk for at least an hour and a half. We only just started and the last thing I would want was to make this walk awkward with at least one more hour to spend.“I’m sorry you have to go through this stress.” He broke the five minutes of silence afte

CHAPTER 72~KIM~“I never pegged Catherine for someone to be this emotional.” Richard and I walked side by side from the car to the mansion entrance, laughing and chatting like we’ve always had this life and it felt right.“You have no idea.” He responded.

CHAPTER 73~KIM~Lunch did not start before it was over.The mess at the table was enormous. The silence was heavy.I wanted to confront and out Elena, but I never imagined how equally disastrous it was going to be for me to.Catherine lost consciousness simply from finding out that there was no baby. Logan and Richard took her to the medical room and for the few seconds I was left with Elena, she almost drove a knife into my stomach.Thankfully, Galina and a few of the maids swooped in in-time and pulled Elena away from me, while Galina quickly took me to my room.“Have some water,” she offered, but I couldn’t bring myself to eat or drink anything. Not when I didn’t even know how Catherine was doing.“You know at some point you’re going to have to stop pacing right?”Galina’s voice and the flowers Richard had in my room were probably the only things keeping me sane.
