Married to pay the debt Chapter 40
Lucy's POV;Sweating woke me up from my sleep in the middle of the night and I couldn’t fall back asleep. I rolled out of bed and grabbed my phone off my dresser to see if Tyler was awake. After a moment I realised it was still dark outside and that no one else would be awake. When i checked the time it was nearly four AM.I groaned and got out of bed to go down stairs. I needed some water. I didn't realise how tired I was until I had drunk almost all of it. Once I finished with that I grabbed a couple granola bars and headed for the kitchen. As I sat at the kitchen table sipping on a glass of juice, my mind wandered to what had woken me up. It felt like someone was watching me, but I knew there wasn’t anyone there. Then it occurred to me that maybe that was just my paranoia talking and I put my glass down. The doorbell rang and startled me. I looked around wondering who could have possibly been here this late. When I opened the door there was a man standing there. I thought he l

Lucy's pov;I walked into Tyler's cabin and saw him working seriously at his desk, as usual. I took a seat at my desk and saw a bunch of files on it. While I was figuring it out, Tyler said, "Discard all the unwanted ones , please." I nodded and did just that before he looked up, noticing me sitting there. He gave me a little smile and asked, "Can I help you?" His voice was always gentle.I shook my head and said, "It's fine."After separating the files, a single document was left on top of the others. When I opened it, it was titled “Project: Project Report.” The content was sparse. It only contained two names: John Fenton and Mark Drake. Maybe it's one of those important documents. I kept it in the drawers and carried the unwanted files to the document room. I had my reasons to be concerned with it. The file was labelled "Project: Project Report". There weren't any names attached to them. I wondered who they were. Was it someone from the government? Someone from the CIA? I shrugg

Lucy's pov;While I was looking at the password bar on the computer figuring out the password, the cabin door opened and Tyler walked in and asked after seeing me standing in front of his computer, "What are you doing with my computer?" he said as usual. He didn't look angry or anything but it seemed like a normal thing to ask about someone's computer when they're sitting in it with them. But I know he means no harm so I'm not really bothered by the question. I quickly turned off the computer and showed the files which were lying on his desk earlier saying, "I'm organising your desk .""You could do that later, right now we have business to attend to." and walked into the cabin. "What is it?" I asked curiously. He pulled out an old black bag. "I have an important meeting with one of my clients this afternoon that requires all my attention for several hours." "Why do you need me there?" I asked as I got up from my seat and walked closer to him. He didn't reply directly. Instead

Lucy's pov;I woke up to the feeling of something heavy pressed on my chest. I shifted a bit and tried to look around only to realise there was no one in sight. I was in my room at Tyler's house, but I couldn’t recall falling asleep here. I saw my hands being wrapped up in bandages and felt them sting from how tight they were, and suddenly remembered what had happened last night. The face of the man who kidnapped me filled my mind. He was tall, thin with pale skin, and his face had been twisted into an expression of pure hatred. He looked young, probably somewhere near the age of thirty or forty, judging by his features. His eyes were dark blue, almost black and looked like he hadn’t slept at all. The way he talked didn't make him sound much older, either. What did he want with me? I then remembered what he said to me. 'Follow his instructions once I get to Tyler's house.' Who was he? I didn't remember seeing him at Mr Anderson's house during Christmas dinner. I wonder how many peo

Lucy's pov;I came downstairs and saw Tyler sitting in his usual spot on the couch with his laptop open and he was staring at it like it was about to start talking to him or something. He looked up when I walked through the door, "Do you want something?" he asked. "I came for some water." I answered and went over to the kitchen. He got up from the couch and grabbed a glass before I did and gave it to me. I let out a sigh and said while showing my hands, "It's not like my hands don't have the capacity of holding that much water, Mr Ackerman." and kept the glass near the counter after drinking the water from it. Since Tyler didn't move and stood still staring at me, I asked, "What is it?" "Nothing," he shook his head and started heading toward the living room without saying anything further and then he stopped, turned around and said to me , "I'm going upstairs for a bit." and then he left with his laptop. I watched him until he disappeared and then walked out of the house and

Lucy's pov;"Sneak this into Tyler's cabin." The guy, who broke in that day at Tyler's house, in front of me handed over something and then turned away to leave. I jumped in front of him and said, "I won't." and gave that piece of spy gear back to him. He just rolled his eyes at me and said, "You don't have a choice." he pointed at me and said, "You're doing it. period." and put it back into my coat and started walking away from me. I shouted, "I'm his wife. How dare you ask me to do such a thing to him? I'm going to the cops!" He turned and walked towards me again and stopped when he was an arm's length away from me because people started coming our way to the platform. He grabbed my hand and took me with him as he tried to walk past the crowd. Once we were alone, I snatched my hand from his and said, "Stop touching me!" He pinned me against the wall and said, "Listen," and looked into my eyes, "You're going to do whatever i tell you whether you like it or not." he gave me a sm

Lucy's pov;As I walked on the pavement thinking about the conversation I had with Ivan and the way he acted towards me, it all looked different than before. He looked like a completely different person, not just in personality or behaviour, but also in how he behaved. Why did he try to save that guy from me? I'm sure he's the one who kidnapped me but why did Ivan try to protect him by giving an stupid explanation? Did he think I was going to do something to him? When I came near Tyler's house, I stopped walking and stared at the house. I let out a heavy breath and turned away from walking to Tyler's house and headed for the park nearby. It wasn't that far off from there. I sat down at the park bench and put my head into my hands thinking about Ivan. My thoughts were interrupted when I saw someone sitting down next to me. They weren't too close though, they still kept a good distance between us. I glanced up and realised they had a baseball cap covering their face. As I got closer

Lucy's pov;As i was setting up the dining table with food i prepared, Tyler took a seat while asking, "Why did you ordered lot of food? Did you invite someone?" I placed the plate in front of him and said, "Firstly, it's only us. I didn't invite anyone. Secondly, I didn't order. I made this by myself."He gave me a surprised stare and asked, "Didn't you say you only know Italian cuisine? then how?" "Haven't you heard about Ftube? There's everything in it for everyone." I took a seat across from him and said, "Now that I think about it, what are you going to do tomorrow?"He took a bite from his plate and asked, "What about tomorrow?" "It's New year. Aren't you the one who's been excited about it since Christmas?" "Oh, right. I forgot that because of some work." and continued eating. "Hey! I've been watching you working all day and it continues past midnight too. What happened at the company?""You know that my company is in bankruptcy right?" "yeah." "Because of the bankruptcy

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
