Married to pay the debt Chapter 115
As I waited for Tyler to pick me up for lunch near the school gate, I felt someone watching me. When I looked around, there was no one there. Maybe it's because of what's been going on lately. I shook those thoughts away and looked at the road. I saw Tyler's car pass me and stopped in front of the gate. As I got into the car, Tyler said, "Is it okay to eat out? Doesn't your teacher say anything about it?" "They gave me permission when they knew I was going to eat with you." He smiled and asked the driver to start the car. As we were on our way to the restaurant, Tyler asked me, "Why haven't you eaten yet?" "Do you want to know the truth or..." "Tell me the truth." "I skipped breakfast because you're still mad at me so I lost my appetite to eat at home. I tried to eat lunch, but a guy knocked me down and the food spilled on the floor. That's when you called me."His expression changed and asked, "Made you fall? Who is this?"I patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Since I'm on the

Lucy's pov:When I got to Tyler's house, it was empty when I opened the front door. Tyler seems to still be in his office. I closed the door and went up to my room to get dressed. When I got to my room, I put my bag on the table and took off my clothes to shower. A hot shower is all I want right now. While I was in the shower, I heard voices from outside. I turned off the water and put my ear to the door to hear it. I didn't hear anything. I opened it and looked out, I saw a figure walking past my room. Who is that? I dried myself with a towel and wrapped it around my body. I quietly got out and walked to the closet for a shirt and pants. My phone rang on the desk. I quickly turned it off before he heard it. When I opened my phone, there was a text from Tyler. Tyler: I called 911. Do nothing and hide in your room. Did he see through the CCTV? But how can I be silent when a stranger wanders around the house? I changed my shirt and pants and looked into the hall. He wasn't there. Did

Lucy's pov;Speaking to the Northern Star like imagining it as Tyler, "I was never afraid of people leaving me in the past. Because I never had anyone close to me to lose. Even when my dad died, I never felt alone because he was never there for me when I needed him the most. But why am I afraid now? Why do I feel that you will reject me when you know the truth? I thought you would forgive me, but why do I feel like you won't? Like you said before, do you judge me by my past like everyone else?"While I was staring at the night sky, the door opened and Daniel walked in saying, "I knew you would be still awake." I ignored him and continued looking at the sky. He took a seat near the window sill and asked, "Are you still thinking about what Tyler said at the dining table? You know that he was teasing me. He didn't mean you." I interrupted him and said, "But he wasn't wrong though. People do get judged by their past no matter how they are today." I paused and asked him, "Are you here to

Lucy's pov;Casey tapped my shoulder and asked, "I've been calling your name for a while. Can't you hear me?" "Huh?" "What are you thinking so deeply that it has made you deaf?" I leaned on my desk and said, "I think I made a mistake giving my name to the camp. I don't know how I'm going to stay in school for the next two days." "Are you tired of seeing our face or… did you miss someone?" "What?" She tapped on my forehead and said, "You look like a lost puppy. Don't worry, it's only for two days and not two years." I groaned and lay down on the table and sighed again. She got up from her desk and asked, "I'm going to the cafeteria. Are you coming with me?" "No." "Do you want me to buy anything for you?" "Yes, I want to go home." She sighed and left the classroom with her friends. And I turned away from her to the window. The sun had already set when a warm orange hue filled the sky with oblique rays in the sky. I let out a sigh and closed my eyes. Among the oblique rays I

Lucy's pov;Some were playing, some were chatting and some were on the phone. As I tried to leave, Casey held my hand and asked, "Where are you going?" "I'll be back in a minute." "Okay, come soon. It will be your turn soon." I nodded and got up from Casey and his gang playing truth or dare. As I walked out of the basketball court, I saw a figure in the dark. I leaned against the door as if I didn't notice it. Who is that? Is this one of my classmates? While I was figuring out the dark figure in the bush, the door opened and Alex stepped out and looked both ways. When he saw me, he walked up to me and asked, "Who was that on the phone?" "Why do I have to tell you?" "Was this person close to you?" When I didn't answer, he said, "Is that your mom or dad?" I sighed and said, "What are you doing here?" "Didn't you tell me to stop teasing so I'm trying to learn. From you." I rolled my eyes and said, "I'm not a model student." I heard another noise from the bushes. This time it wa

Lucy's pov;On Monday morning I returned home after the training camp. I walked around the house to find Tyler but he wasn't there. Daniel came out of the kitchen and said, "Tyler left for the office." I grabbed my bag and walked up the stairs. Daniel asked, "Did you know Dean before this?" I stopped and asked, "What?" "I noticed you looking at Dean in the cafeteria. Do you know him from anywhere?" "Yeah, sort of." "How did you know him? Did he catch you stealing someone's property?" I looked at him and said, "I know him. So what?" "I'm just asking. Since all the problems have already been solved, I don't want this to continue." He paused and said, "No wonder you are often a target of strangers, since you disagree with almost half of the people of Colorado." And let out a smirk. "Better that they're strangers than a family trying to kill, right?" As he stared, I continued smiling, "I'm not wrong though." And went to my room. What's wrong with him After he took a shower, me

Lucy's pov;When I entered the TA company, the receptionist greeted me with a bright smile as I headed to the elevator. When the elevator door opened, I saw Catherine get out and talk on the phone. I tried not to catch her eye, but she caught me. "Lucy?" I waved a small hand, "Hey..." She said to whoever was on the other side of the call, "I'll call later to discuss." And put the phone back in her coat. She hugged me and asked, "How are you? It's been months since I saw you." "I feel good to see you after a long time too.""Are you here to see Mr. Ackerman?" I nodded and asked, "Yes. Is he in his office or…” She tapped me on the shoulder and said, "The meeting just ended, so he's in his cabin.""Okay, I'll go check on him then."She nodded and said, "We should hang out sometime. It was so nice when you worked here. We had a lot of fun. I miss those days." While she was talking, her phone rang, she said to me, "Okay, go see him. We'll meet up later." And talked on her phone.

Lucy's pov;I foolishly trusted that everything would improve shortly. My miserable past and present are the same. I stopped believing in better days since I don't think they will come, so I made the decision to flee the want that had me. As I stood on the abandoned bridge and looked at the front, I could hear water flowing beneath it. When I closed my eyes, I remembered my father's death. I thought he was a coward for taking his life and leaving me alone. But I can understand how bad he felt then. How hard it is to raise a child with nothing to spend. I always ran out of the house to escape him, but he stayed behind. He had to go through so much to take care of me. I always whined that he wasn't there for me but I wasn't there for him either. I never once spoke nicely to him. I realised that I was the one who hated him all my life. Tears began to roll down my cheeks as I thought more about my father. I made the mistake of not staying behind. I was wrong when I didn't understand his l

Lucy's pov;The next few days passed by in a blur as we made arrangements for our second wedding. As the day of the wedding approached, I felt myself growing more and more excited. Tyler and I had decided to have a small ceremony with just a few close friends and family members. The ceremony was held in a small garden behind our home, surrounded by blooming flowers and lush greenery. I wore the same white gown i wore before. As i walked out of the house, i saw a huge crowd in the garden. Didn't i asked him to keep it simple? Why did he invited many people? Jake took my hand saying, "I'll accompany you on the aisle." I was surprised to see him here so I asked, "When did you come from New Hampshire?" "Last night." I looked away from him and asked, "How did you know?" ""Tyler invited me. Hey, don't feel bad. I'm happy to be here at my sister's wedding." Tyler stood at the altar, looking handsome in his suit, as I walked towards him, my heart racing. "Lucy." I knew this voice. I turn

When i woke up, i was on Tyler's lap and i could see we're heading to somewhere in a car. I called out Tyler's name and when he see me, he said, "Don't worry. We're on the way to the hospital. We'll be there, soon." And kissed my forehead. When i looked at my stomach, it was wrapped with many layers of fabric but the blood was still gushing out. With the amount of blood loss, i don't think I'll be able to get better. I held his hands and said, "I have something to tell you, Tyler." "Lucy, please don't stress yourself -" i cut him off saying, "The reason i was scared to confess was that because I'm scared of left behind." "Lucy..." "Please don't stop me, Tyler." I paused and continued, "The people who played the important part in my life left me behind. My mother, my father, my only best friend. Everyone left me behind." Tears began to roll down my cheeks. "But you, Tyler, you made me feel different. You made me feel like I was important and that I mattered. I'm scared that if i t

Lucy's pov;As i was talking with Daniel, Tyler rushed into the house and came straight to me asking, "What happened? Why did you ask me come immediately?" I hugged him and cried in his embrace. He asked while patting on my back, "Lucy, what happened? Why are you crying?" Since i didn't respond to him, he turned to daniel and asked him, "What did the doctor say?" Daniel answered him, "I didn't take her to the hospital." "What were you doing then? Why is she crying? Did you had a fight with her?" Daniel said to me, "Answer him before he threw a punch at me." I pulled away from the hug and looked at him in his eyes. "I'm pregnant," I said, tears still streaming down my face. Tyler's eyes widened in shock, but he quickly pulled me back into his embrace and kissed the top of my head. "That's amazing news, babe," he whispered. "Why were you crying then?" I pulled away from him to wipe my tears and said, "I'm scared, Tyler. I don't know if I'm ready to be a mom. I don't know if I'll b

Lucy's pov;It's been a week since I've been feeling unwell. I get tired easily and I don't know why. Did I eat something expired? I ran to the bathroom when I felt nauseous. Tyler held my head saying, "Lucy, let's go to hospital." I said after wiping my mouth, "I'm okay. It's just something I ate. I took a tablet so I'll be fine." I changed my clothes and laid on the bed. Tyler checked my temperature and said, "Temperature is normal." "See, I'm fine Tyler. Don't worry about me." He laid beside me and said, "If you vomited once again. We're going to the hospital. Period." "Okay."I knew Tyler was right, but I couldn't shake off the feeling that something was wrong. The nausea would come in waves, and my body felt weak and heavy. As I closed my eyes, I felt Tyler's hand on my forehead, smoothing my hair away from my face."Lucy, are you sure you're okay?" he asked softly."I'm fine. Now go to sleep. Didn't you say you have an important meeting tomorrow?"That night, I slept restles

Lucy's pov;I tried waking Tyler but he didn't listen and covered the sheets over his head saying "it's a weekend, babe.""Tyler, wake up! Tyler, Let's go out." He lowered the sheets a little and asked, "Where?" I jumped on him and said, "It's a surprise!" Tyler pushed me off him, laughing, and said, "Alright, alright, I'm up. Give me a minute to get ready." As Tyler got dressed, I went to the kitchen to prepare some breakfast. I couldn't wait to take him out to his grandfather's house. I hope he won't get mad at me. Tyler came downstairs, fully dressed, and walked towards the kitchen. I had prepared him a plate of bacon and eggs, which he devoured in minutes. "So where are we going?" he asked, wiping his mouth with a napkin."It's a surprise," I repeated, grinning.Tyler rolled his eyes but smiled back at me. We got into the car and I drove him to the outskirts of town. It was a long drive, but Tyler seemed excited. Finally, we arrived at the biggest mansion in that town. It was

Lucy's pov;When I turned the wardrobe upside down, I finally found something in green, it looked nicer than I expected. It is a knee length bodycon dress. Once I got changed into it I paired it with big white drop earrings. What should I do with my hair? Should I do a ponytail or let it down? Finally, I got myself ready for the event! As I walked down the stairs, I saw Tyler enter the house so I called out his name and when he looked at me, he said, "Didn't I say dressing up attracts attention?" "You're the one who asked me to wear green."He walked up to me and said, "You look beautiful in that outfit. I bet everyone will look at you at the event. I don't want to take you to this event." I went closer and whispered in his ear, "But only you tasted me." And pulled away from him. He pulled me closer to him and asked, "Where did you learn to talk like that?""From you." And smiled at him."Do we really have to attend this party?" "Didn't you say it was important?""Yes it is." He

Ch- 139Lucy's pov;At the dining room table while I was eating dinner, Tyler asked, "Lucy, is something wrong?" I looked up from my plate and asked him, "What?" He pointed to my plate and said, "You hate greens, but you're eating them.""What?" When I looked at my plate, I put greens on my plate instead of shrimp salad. I drank a glass of water and put the shrimp salad on my plate.Tyler asked, "What is it?" I shook my head and said, "Nothing." "I won't give up until you say so. What is it?" I sighed and asked, "Can you cut the part I did for the commercial?" "What do you..." I cut him off and said, "I didn't think about the result and signed up for the money, but I thought about it recently. How will people react to seeing me in an advertisement?""If you're still thinking about this scandal, don't worry about it. It's been five years. Who else remembers that?" "I do. You do. Everyone who was involved remembers it." "Lucy, you have to stop overthinking. Okay, let's do th

Lucy's pov;"What are you looking at? Come in." Tyler carried my things into the house as I followed him inside. Tyler took me to his room and put me in his closet. "Why are you keeping my bag here?" He came closer, held my hand, and said, "From now on we will stay together in this room." "Can I stay in my old room?" "No, you stay here with me." He sat me down on the bed and leaned on my shoulder saying, "I missed you too." "I've never seen you so angry, so I was afraid that you would never like me again." "Where did you get the idea to deliver the flowers in the first place?" "Wasn't it obvious? I saw you take care of your garden many times. You take care of these flowers so beautifully. So I knew you wouldn't throw them away if they were flowers. Every time you looked for the meaning on the Internet I sent you flowers, right? When you see or think about a person every day, it either annoys us or we like them. Aren't I smart to use flowers?" "Yes, sending crimson roses is re

Lucy's pov;I didn't think I would get caught by Tyler. Besides, what is he doing here? Doesn't he usually eat at a fancy restaurant? Guess it's one of my bad days. After finishing the job, I got paid and left the restaurant grabbing my jacket. Walking down the sidewalk, I put both hands in my pockets. The weather is really strange. Hot as the sun during the day and cold as ice at night. By the way, what should I buy him for this time? Since i'm running out of money, I can't pay for expensive flowers. Because of that, i couldn't send him a bouquet and sent him only two or three flowers. Let's see if I can find the flowers cheap. I went to the flower shop where I usually buy flowers and looked around to find beautiful flowers at a low rate. Why does everything seem expensive today? Looks like I can only send him two flowers this time. I picked two white carnations and when I tried to give my money to the shopkeeper, someone held my hand. When I looked at that person, it was Tyler. I
