Married to pay the debt Chapter 120
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. I no

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; I told Tyler the reason for the kiss because I don't want to hide it from him. The only man who is with me in all my bad times. I don't want to lose him either. After hearing everything from me, he held my hand and said: "Let's go home." I pulled my hand from his and said, "I don't want to. Leave me here and go." "What do you mean by that?" “You don't want someone like me. Let's end it here." "What do you want to end?" "A contract, a marriage, whatever between us. Let's end it here." He made me look at him and asked, "Do you really want this to end even though you like me?" "Did I ever say I like you? Why do you draw your conclusions? I don't like you.” "You're lying." I shook my head and said, “No, I'm not lying. You are the one who denies the truth." He held my hands tightly and asked, "Why are you lying?" "I'm not!" I stood up and tried to leave, but he grabbed my hand and forced me to stop. . asking, "Why are you lying to me?” “I'm not lying. I didn't like yo

Tyler's pov;I had been looking for Lucy everywhere, for days now. I had checked her usual spots, called her friends and scoured the city. But I couldn't find her. I asked the private investigator who I asked to find Lucy to see if he had any leads. He told me he was still looking for her too, but had no luck so far. I thanked him and decided to go back into the city to look again. I drove around town from sunrise to sunset, checking everywhere I could think of that she might have gone - parks, restaurants, the bridge, her old job - but it was always the same: no sign of Lucy. My search finally led me to a small cafe in a secluded part of town that neither of us had ever been before. A waitress there said she remembered seeing someone matching Lucy's description a few days ago with another woman. Maybe it's Mrs Smith whom she always talks about. With the connecting flight, It took me three hours to get to Mrs Smith's apartment in El Paso, but it was dark. I knocked on the door and cal

Tyler's POV;"I need to talk to the head of the promotion department. Ask him to come to my office right away." I said while looking at the advertisement for the new brand. Lance replied, "The promotion department went to the location for the shoot, sir." "What about the production department?" "They are in a meeting, sir." "Inform them to meet me after the meeting is over.” "Yes sir." Lance didn't leave, he just stood in front of my desk like he had something to say so I asked, "What is this? Do you have anything to convey?""Your grandfather… I mean, Mr. Anderson is waiting for you in the lobby, sir." I sighed and headed to the lobby. When I entered the lobby, I saw my grandfather talking on the phone. When he saw me, he hung up and looked at me as if he had seen a ghost and stood still.I walked to him and asked, "Why did you come all the way here? I would have gone to the house if you had informed m-" Before I could finish, he interrupted, "What happened to you? Why do you

Lucy's pov;The constant ringing of the bell woke me up. When I got out of bed, the door opened and I was able to squeeze the covers around my neck. A maid came in and started working by folding the sheets. I sighed and let go of the blanket and walked into the bathroom. The slamming of the bathroom door made me jump in and out of the shower quickly. I put on a dress I don't want to wear and went downstairs to have breakfast. I sat with my head down, far away from the family I live with.While eating, I heard Mr Johnson talking, "I'm going to Hawaii tonight for a business meeting. Since it's an important meeting, don't call me until it's an emergency." I continued to eat as he talked about his trip to Hawaii. Jake interrupted him by saying, "I'm going to my friends' party tonight." "No. You're not going anywhere.""I didn't ask for your permission. I'm going to the party if you don't allow me." "I'll cut your allowance if I hear you went there." "I don't care." With that, he left

Lucy's pov;At Jake's graduation, since Mr Johnson was in Hawaii on a business trip, mother and I came to Jake's graduation. While Jake was with his friends, I sat next to mom and watched the stage decorated with flowers and ribbons. Mom got a call and left me alone with other parents. As I watched from the front, someone tapped me on the shoulder, making me look at them. There was a man in his forties who asked, "You look familiar..." I stood up and walked away from the man, only to meet someone else. I apologised and as I tried to leave, I heard them call my name, "Lucy?" When I looked at the person I was apologising to, it was Mrs. Smith. She held my shoulders and asked, "Lucy, is it really you?" When I tried to leave, she asked, "What did I do to see you avoid me?" I stopped in my tracks and stood there not knowing what to do or what to say. She held my hand and took me backstage and hugged me. A warm hug after a long time. She pulled back from the hug and asked, "How are you?"

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
