The Bride

Before we left, we talked to the detectives and Vina decided to stop by the Diner.

We ordered as usual and were seated at the back booth. “She still loves you, and after what happened to Tristan, she has a chance to win you back…”

“Did he want to kill Kaden? Who wants to kill an innocent child?’

“Gray”.

Vina replied knowing it was a rhetorical question. ‘I think he can’t stand the thought of you two getting back together.

He picked a strawberry from the bowl and took a bite.

I liked something and I didn’t know what to say to Vina. Everyone already knew Cayden and had to know something about him.

pair

I thought I would never get this out, but they had to know. I still regret my decision and cannot change it.

“Where the twins are, he has a sister.” I spoke quickly without looking at him. He stopped drinking from the straw and spat it all into me.

“Did you give birth to twins?”

– Do you have twins?

I looked at the white shoulders with spots on the face and neck.

The juice he spat on my face cleaned my throat. “I’m sorry, I didn’t expect that.”

He said that when I turned to look at him, I smiled to hide the grimace on my face.

He picked up five paper towels from the edge of the table in his hand. “You hugged me for a moment, weren’t you kidding me?”

I took it from his hand and wiped my face and neck.

– No, I had twins, Vina.

His lips parted slowly, as if he didn’t know what to say. “I need to wash this, I’ll be back soon.”

I got up and left to take care of what I said and went to the bathroom.

When I returned to the stand, he was spinning a drinking straw. – Wait, are you dead?

He asked for a meal. low key approach

“Not?”

I spoke loud enough to be heard all evening. “Oh God.”

“So you gave up on adoption?”

he asked with his mouth. before soaking the straw

“Yes”.

This time he answered calmly. Veena gasped in surprise. “Where?”

“Cuba”.

“You were born in Cuba, of course, but why did you leave Cuba?”

“I didn’t disappoint him.”

“You abandoned him. You chose Cayden and abandoned him.”

The decision is said to have been made quickly.

‘I was helpless and couldn’t afford diapers. I had to give Kayla a better life.

I tried to explain.

‘I couldn’t take care of them in my condition, and at first I wanted to give them both up for adoption. I loved them so much and wanted to protect them, but there was nothing and I knew I couldn’t give them a good life. I was not ready to be a mother of two children and I had to make a choice. I wish I didn’t have to, but I can only get one.

‘Wow, that’s so unfair. Kayla is going to be very upset with you.

– He spoke and took a sip. ‘OK. I think the new family gave him another name.”

I murmured until tears began to flow from my eyes. “Well, didn’t you put her in the basket at the orphanage?”

“Basket?”

“What? They’re always shooting. It’s a basket or a bowl.”

I shook my head at his attempt to encourage me. ‘I don’t blame you Chloe. You were in a difficult situation and you thought you made the right decision for your child.

he said with a soft smile. “Tell me everything that happened in Cuba.”

“good.” I said with a sad smile. As he approached, I stood up. “When I arrived, I stayed at the hotel for two days and realized that the money I spent on room service was a waste. I asked if I could rent a room from a middle class family and they readily agreed. I helped with little things and they treated me well. I saved some money from the check Adrian gave me before I left so I could spend time with the kids.

my hospital bill

“Did you know you’re giving birth to twins?”

‘Yes, I was shocked to see the scans. That’s when I knew I couldn’t do it.”

I stopped and shouted. I remember the doctor who looked at the scanner with an expression of mixed emotions and smiled at me. I wiped my tears with my thumb and continued. Bina tried to wipe her tears. “So the water broke while I was taking a bath.”

“What the?”

“And Mr. Rodriguez was the only one in the house and he had to ask the neighbor’s wife for help. She put a big sweater on me and they took me to the nearest hospital.”

I stopped for a moment and took a deep breath. ‘When I woke up, Mrs. Rodriguez was there with Cayden and her husband holding Kayla. I cried in my arms, but she looked so nice and peaceful. Kayla’s small lips were pushed forward as she slept and Kaiden moved his small hands as she slept.

Tears came to my eyes as I spoke with a sad smile. ‘They didn’t deserve to suffer, Vina. I brought them into this world and I didn’t know what to do when I saw them.

I let the tears run down my face. “They are so small and fragile that they have imagined themselves to be mothers and fathers, but they are not yet ready. I kissed their heads and their wives. Rodriguez took the picture. I hate myself for making decisions like this every day looking at this picture, I don’t even know if I’m happy or alive…”

I fell and buried my face in my hands. “Hey.” Vina took my hand and said softly.

Kayla is fine. You can bring it back.

“I can not. Once you adopt a child, you cannot go back and take the child. This is the law.”

I told him.

“It took me a month to catch on.

mental”.

I cried and wiped away my tears. – Chloe, don’t blame yourself.

He took my hand and said.

“I have to tell Tristan he hates me.”

“Of course you need to tell him and tell him why you’re worried he hates you. Everything last I checked was his fault.”

– He smiled at me and said. – I want to be with you, Chloe. “You’ve done enough, Vina.”

– But why didn’t you approach anyone?

I was silent for a few seconds.

“I was scared, I thought someone close to me was going to hurt me and no one cared.”

He got up and sat next to me. “I’m not going to hurt you, Chloe, not emotionally, but physically.”

I smiled softly as he hugged me. – Looks like you?

he asked. “calm.” I pulled out my phone and scrolled through the photos I took in Cuba.

“Oh, it’s your daughter.”

He told me he took my phone to take a closer look. “I have to admit you’re rocking the baby. Do women look sexier when they’re pregnant?”

He asked as he swiped another picture and I shrugged. “He’s so cute,” she cried.

“Hey, I regret every decision I’ve made in my life. I didn’t want her to suffer.”

I told him when I got my phone back. “it’s fine.”

°

The drive back to Sanchester Castle was filled with the endlessly funny Weena talking to Tristan about Kayla.

“I could!” Veena called after me as I walked home. The maid who opened the door looked at the stain on my shirt before looking at my face.

I went up the stairs to Tristan’s room and I haven’t told the whole family about Gray yet, or you may have seen it on the news. I opened the door without knocking and Tristan was typing on his phone with one hand and the other next to Kayden sleeping on it.

“Where were you and why did you turn off your phone?”

I felt him stop in front of the door

anger on his part. – It’s from the police station. Detective Emily called.

I said this and entered the room with the door closed.

“You should have told me or someone else.”

He looked relieved as he put the phone down. “I’m 23, not 5.”

I leaned down and kissed Kaiden’s head.

“What’s that to you?”

– Lemonade, spit on me what Vina drank.

He frowned and waited for an explanation. I waited until the police station asked what was going on, but he didn’t.

“Well, Gray pleaded guilty and I saw the evidence.”

He wasn’t surprised, was he?

Am I the only one surprised by this news? ‘I knew he hated me, but I didn’t have to include you, the kid, or the nice old lady you were helping. I hope he is sentenced to death.

he snapped “Be careful what you say to Cayden.” He’s still a child.

I crossed my arms and said

He smiled at Kaiden. I have to tell him about Kayla now.

“Tristan, you should know about Kaiden.”

I went to the deck chair and sat down. “What the?” He looked nervous. “Um… where is this…?”

The door opened and he stopped talking. – I’m looking for you everywhere.

Nana said softly, trying not to wake the child.

“Can I talk with you?” “sure.”

I looked at Tristan before leaving the room. I followed him into a small, vintage living room. When we sat down, she smiled at me and I noticed that her gray hair seemed shorter. “car?”

he asked, holding a relic-like teapot.

– No, I drank too fast.

‘How are you baby?’ “good”.

I hoped he wouldn’t notice the monotony. “I saw this on the news and I can’t believe your ex did this. I’m sorry.” she said, taking a sip of her tea.

he just nodded. It was so uncomfortable that I got up and took everything without leaving the room.

“I’m so sorry for what I did to you, Chloe.”

he said after a few seconds of silence.

“It’s okay Nana, it’s over now.” I said with a small smile. But I was still upset because it was an experiment. The past had to be left to the twins.

“Thanks for Kayden. That must have been really hard.”

Kayla? – Yes, it happened. Sorry. I have to go. I need to talk to Tristan.

I quickly hugged him and stood up. On the way, I met Mrs. Sanchester. Her bright blonde hair fluttered over her shoulder and she approached me. “Chloe!”

he hugged me tightly

‘I’m so glad it’s over. He won’t hurt you or anyone else. Now you are safe.

He told me before he left. “thanks.”

I ran out of patience. ‘Okay, tomorrow night will be late. You can meet my stylist, Anita, to choose a dress and she will choose any dress for you.

“good.”

– I said with a forced smile, I left immediately, and a girl came and talked to him. I opened the door and he was sleeping. Should I wake him up? I will be waiting.

I woke up late the next day and left.

Nora’s tray came into the kitchen full of bread. Immediate

“Hey, where’s Tristan?”

“He has a hospital appointment and just left.”

– Where? – He’s with Nana. “good.”

I have to tell him when I get back today. Anita brought me the dress and I tried it on before I left. Ms. Sanchester walked around to make sure everything was perfect for the evening.

Tristan came back late

I refused to give Kayden the phone and couldn’t stop crying so I went to the hospital and spent the rest of my time picking out a suit. Time passed and I found myself changing in the evening.

Tristan and I have been living in separate rooms since we got here and things have changed. I put on my jewelry and looked at my reflection in the mirror. The dress had a long V-neckline with thin straps and some slits. It fell to the floor with its long tail and hugged my ass with a long slit that stopped at mid-thigh.

I loosen my hair after straightening the ends to make my hair smooth and shiny. The makeup was simple and the gold eyeshadow made my eyes pop.

I was holding my bag when someone knocked. “open”.

– Wow, who are you?

Vina asked as she entered the room.

she wore dark champagne

A tulle dress that is perfect for her small stature. Her hair was beautifully braided and her makeup was top notch as always.

I posed like a model and smiled at him. “Let’s go, ma’am.” He snapped his fingers and encouraged me.

I walked up to him smiling and we hugged and pulled away. “You said?”

“Not yet, but I will tonight.”

There was a soft knock on the door. “Miss Simpson, it’s time.”

One of the housekeepers informed me. “OK thanks!”

Mrs. Sanchester said this morning that we are taking a grand stand because we are going to have fun. “How do I look?” – Like handcuffs.

I smiled and headed for the door and Tristan was waiting in the hall with Kayden.

I made my presence known by wearing gold heels on a marble floor. Tristan’s eyes followed my body to my face and his lips twitched into a smile.

She looked slim and beautiful in a charcoal two-piece suit, her dirty blonde hair slicked back and, wait, she got a haircut. It was the same as her hairstyle from 3 years ago.

I smiled as he waved his hand.

In the front pocket of the suit pants. “Mother!”

Kayden ran to me and hugged my knee. “Welcome to the holidays!”

Ms. Sanchester shouted and everyone cheered.

I took Kayden’s left hand and Tristan took his right hand.

“it’s over?”

Tristan asked hoarsely. “Yes.” I nodded.

We went down the stairs and everyone looked at us and started cheering. Cayden started jumping and we both loved hugging him.

– Caden. I complained but he kept jumping and I called Tristan for help but he laughed. I looked at the people in the room, but most didn’t recognize me.

Number of people in this room.

Everyone cheered as we walked down the stairs. I gave them my best smile and Kaiden slipped out of my arms and ran to Nora.

Few people came to talk to us, especially since Tristan didn’t know anyone. They asked a few questions about how I survived the shooting and why my ex tried to kill us. Tristan ended the conversation when he noticed how uncomfortable I was with the subject.

Ms. Sanchester gave an emotional speech, apologized to everyone for what he had done to me, and I smiled at everyone.

30 minutes passed in the evening and my parents still haven’t come. “Hello,”

Someone from behind tapped me on the shoulder and shouted.

I smiled at Tristan who offered me a glass of grape wine to take with me. “thanks.”

“It is too late?”

he asked, taking a sip of his martini.

“A little, because half the people here don’t know yet.”

I saw a room full of people in beautiful clothes. “I like your dress, it’s beautiful.” – Just the shirt?

I raised my eyebrows as I took a sip of my wine and a smile crept onto my lips.

He smiled and took a step closer. His eyes were not mine. “You look more beautiful than ever.”

She whispered softly and brushed her messy hair.

– Is it still soft?

I said come back. He smiled and came closer again. His eyes grazed every curve of my body and I could feel the warmth of his body and the passion to dance in his blue eyes.

His eyes were on my lips as I cleared my throat, and the air around us was uncomfortable. – I changed my perfume.

It didn’t seem like a question and I stopped the heat on my face. He still remembers my old nostalgia. “Yes”.

I took a sip of my wine as I prepared to tell her about Kayla.

“Chloe!”

When I heard my mother’s voice, I turned and smiled at my parents. “Father!”

Tristan hugged me tightly

parents before departure.

I enjoyed the evening chatting with my parents for a few minutes. I looked for Tristan, but he was nowhere to be seen.

“Hey, Scarlett.” I called one of the maids who arrived with empty champagne glasses. – Hi, Chloe.

“Have you seen Tristan?”

“I saw him go up.” “thanks.”

– I said and went up the stairs.

I was relieved to see her changing in her room. “Hello.”

I said nervously and closed the door. “it’s fine?”

He asked her to take off her white long sleeve shirt and red shirt.

paint it “Yeah, what happened?”

“Kaden spilled my drink, I’m just here to change.”

He took another shirt and pushed it over the sleeve.

At this point, I looked away so as not to be distracted. “Are you sure you’re okay?” “Good.”

I was looking for something else.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

She walked over to where I was sitting and stood too close with her shirt still unbuttoned and her stomach and v-line fully exposed. “cash.” He lifted my chin with his finger and looked into my eyes.

“What happened?”

“We need a conversation.” I said back. – Okay, I’m an ear.

I swallowed and crossed my arms.

“I had twins. Cayden has twins.” “I had twins. Kaiden twins.”

“What the?” – He grunted and looked at me without even blinking. – He has a sister. I stroked my elbow to ease the pain in my chest.

“Damn traitor!”

With a groan, she turned her back on me, hit the wall next to the closet, and cursed again. This was not the reaction I expected.

– God, no.

She moaned again and buried her face in her hands. “Tristan?”

– Don’t tell me, don’t do it.

He nearly collapsed, took a deep breath and covered his face with a desperate hand.

I was very confused. “Tristan?”

I got close.

“He’s dead, isn’t he?” And it’s all my fault.”

– No, he’s alive. Kayla is alive.

He looked at me with great surprise. Why did she think he was dead?

“You are alive?” Is my daughter still alive?

He slowly walked towards me, still in shock, but as he got closer, a happy smile appeared on his face.

“Yes, Tristan, he’s not dead.” “Oh my God, thank you.”

She hugged me with a bright smile and I was still lost. “I’m glad to hear that, Cassie.” I can’t stand the thought of losing another woman.

He looked relieved. ‘Where is he? I want to see him.’

he asked as he stepped back. He seemed so excited and I was trying to get my happiness and hope. “Okay… He’s in Cuba. Do you know where my twins were born?

“Why?”

He looked angry now. “I can’t take care of both…” I wanted to say as I looked at him.

“So what happened Cassie?” Is there a problem? »

“I gave up on adoption.” I said quickly.

“What are you?”

“I can’t, Tristan.”

“So you cut him out of your life and let it go like nothing happened?” You left him.

“No! God, me.” Not. refuse. hair!”

“You took Kayden and left her sister.” You gave her sister to another family, Cassie.

He closed his mouth. “What? Cruel?” unjust? Please tell me!” I provoked him. He turned his back on me and went into the closet.

‘I know it would be wrong to choose Kaiden and leave his sister. And I didn’t have the money to take care of both of them. It’s better than seeing them suffer.”

I said, grabbing the bag from behind her and tossing her clothes.

“What are you doing?”

– I’m going to Cuba to take my daughter.

he said firmly.

“We can’t do it. Once you adopt it, you can’t send it back. That’s the law.”

“Until

go to hell

My friend.” Law, I’m going

“I don’t think it’s possible,” he said. – I said with tears

He pretended not to hear me and continued to dial. When he was done, he picked up his bag and walked past me into his room.

I buttoned my shirt, put on my jacket, took out my cell phone and called. “Get your plane ready. I’ll be there in 20 minutes.”

He hang up the phone.

I could say

– Tristan. When I got close, I called. “I wish I could do something to get him back, but I have no choice.”

“There has to be a way to get it back. I’m going to get it back somehow.”

– OK. I will pack.

I put my things in a small bag before leaving the room and said. I had no idea how he planned to get Kayla back from his new home. I wore white skinny jeans and a brown shirt. I quickly put on my white sneakers and left the room. Tristan waited by the stairs and checked his watch. As soon as he saw me, he started down the stairs and approached where I was, not waiting for me to come to where I was. All eyes were on us as we left

Stairs, Tristan doesn’t care. He headed for the door without saying a word. I found Nora telling Kayden to wait.

“Chloe,” um. Sanchester called me to stop.

“What are you doing? What’s in the bag?’

“Long story short, I’ll explain everything when I get back, take care of Kaiden. And I’m sorry to leave the party like this.”

– I ran out of the house and heard my mother’s voice, but I didn’t have time to wait. “Chloe!”

He followed me and called Vina.

– I’ll call you and explain everything!

I screamed again and got into the car. I looked at her as the car pulled away and Adrian got out of the car and stood next to her.

They both saw us when we left. I turned and looked at Tristan away from Sanchester Castle.

She closed her eyes, tilted her head back and tapped her bottom with her fingers. I opened my eyes and saw Eduardo driving us to the airport.

Tristan got out of the car as soon as he pulled it into the parking lot. We were escorted to a waiting plane. The flight attendant greeted us with a nice smile and I hated the bob but this lady gave me an amazing haircut. The interior looks very luxurious and beautiful. A twinkling tree illuminated me, I sat down and put on my seat belt. Tristan sat down in front of me, unbuttoned his coat and curled up.

Sit in the seat without worrying about seat belts.

He closed his eyes and remained silent. – How will you get it back? Don’t treat me like that, it’s my fault.

I said as I felt the plane move. “I never blamed you. Let’s enjoy the flight.”

He said with his eyes still closed.

The flight attendant came over and asked me what I wanted to drink. I called Tristan for a sandwich and orange juice, but he didn’t answer.

It was a short flight and a black Porsche was waiting for us when we arrived. I was encouraged to return to Cuba, where the familiar air and place set my heart aflutter.

Cuba was a beautiful country and I had many fun and beautiful memories here. I laughed

When I passed the store, I went to buy twins from the store.

I wanted to say some parts to Tristan, but his head was still back and his eyes were closed. We were supposed to sleep in a hotel tonight and go there tomorrow.

The silence between us broke my heart. It hasn’t been quiet since I arrived. The elevator ride was uneventful and the hotel staff holding our luggage seemed uncomfortable.

“thanks.”

I told the lanky man after we dropped our bags in the apartment. I locked the door and turned to see Tristan undressing.

He put on his underwear and went to the bathroom by himself, and soon I heard the shower. I took off my clothes and wrapped the white towel I found in the bathroom closet around me. I brushed my hair, turned on the bathroom faucet and brushed my teeth. After brushing my teeth, I went to the bathroom and the soapy water swallowed me down my throat. I leaned my head back and relaxed. When the shower door opened, I opened my eyes and grabbed a towel and wrapped it around my waist.

She stood in front of the mirror and dried her hair. “Then how long are you going to ignore me?”

I asked.

– I’m ignoring you.

He said this and left the bathroom. I washed and left. He wasn’t in the bedroom when I entered the room.

the room. I was wearing sweatpants and a white t-shirt. I decided to look around and saw him sleeping on the couch in the living room. I washed and left. He wasn’t in the bedroom when I entered the room. I was wearing sweatpants and a white t-shirt. I decided to look around and saw him sleeping on the couch in the living room. “Excuse me.” I said two meters away, not sure if he was still awake. I waited for him to speak, but he didn’t. I went back to the bedroom and slept only on the king size bed.

We were having breakfast at the restaurant around 10am and I was actually the only one eating. Tristan said he wasn’t hungry and waited for me to finish before we left and I could feel his impatience.

He crossed his arms over his chest as if looking at me. We were cleaning the bathroom at the same time and didn’t say anything to each other.

“It’s been twenty minutes, Cathy.” You don’t have to eat everything.”

He let out a heavy sigh and that was the first thing he said to me after we woke up.

“I need to eat something. It might be a long day, and the pancakes are delicious, so you have to try them.”

I said instead. I’ll wait in the car,” he said and drove off.

The visit to the adoption agency went smoothly. I kept looking out the window at the familiar road.

I remember it was sunny outside that day. I was very close to Kayla who was sleeping off her booster. I held her close to protect her.

Today. I remember Mrs. Rodriguez and her husband talking to me, but they said they wouldn’t change my mind. I left Cayden with their daughter Katrina.

The woman I spoke to when I visited gave me time to think about my decision because once I signed the papers there was no going back. I felt guilty just hugging Kayla, but I felt like I made the right decision to give her a better life.

I wrote all the documents and agreed to all the terms. I held back my tears and they took him away from me. I cried all the way home. “cash.” Someone tapped me on the arm, bringing back old memories.

I looked at Tristan who looked worried and confused. “Here you go?” I murmured.

“You cry.” He tried to touch my face and I turned away. – It’s nothing, my eyes itch.

I said with a fake smile and deleted them.

The car stopped when he opened his mouth to say something. “We are here, sir.”

– said the driver.

I saw a familiar building. “Are you ready?” he asked me “yes.” I nodded. I got out of the car. I took a deep breath and exhaled to calm my mind. “cash.” Tristan stopped in front of me.

‘I’m sorry, I know I’ve been acting like an idiot since you talked about Kayla. just… too much

I want you to know that I do not condemn you for what happened. So I can record it.”

he said

– OK, let’s go.

I said and headed for the front door. The receptionist in the lobby smiled as we approached her.

“Good morning! How can I help you?” he said cheerfully. “Hello, I’m here to meet Maria Lopez.”

I remember his name. “I’m sorry, he died three months ago.”

“Five.” I murmured.

“Do you want to meet the new owner?”

“Yes please.” replied Tristan. ‘I’ll make an appointment, maybe an hour.

There are three people on the list. ‘thanks.’

“For nothing.”
