Mr. Ex Knelt Before Me Chapter 9
Here is the continuation of the story:Tris walked back into the library, lost in thought. She had just finished lunch with Chris, but her mind was preoccupied with the conversation they had just had. Chris had confided in her about his financial struggles, and Tris had promised to keep his secret. But now, as she walked back into the library, she was faced with the daunting task of telling Anne about Chris's debt.Tris had always been close to Anne, but their friendship was limited to the workplace. They had never really discussed their personal lives, except for that one time when Anne had opened up to Tris about her arranged marriage, her ex-boyfriend who still had feelings for her, and her new fiancé. Tris had listened intently, offering words of encouragement and support. But now, as she approached Anne's desk, she felt a sense of trepidation. How was she supposed to bring up Chris's debt without making it seem like she was gossiping?As she approached Anne's desk, Tris noticed t

Chris walked into his house, still feeling elated from the events of the evening. He had finally found a way to pay off his debt, thanks to Anne's kindness. But as he entered the living room, his father's presence immediately dampened his mood. John, Chris's father, was sitting on the couch, a scowl on his face. "Chris, we need to talk," he said, his voice gruff. Chris sighed inwardly, knowing that this conversation was not going to be pleasant. "What is it, Dad?" he asked, trying to keep his tone neutral. "It's about Tris," John said, his voice dripping with disdain. "I don't understand why you're still with her. She's not good enough for you, Chris. She's not from a good family, and she doesn't have any money." Chris felt his anger rising, but he tried to keep his cool. "That's not the point, Dad," he said. "Tris is a great person, and I love her. She's kind, smart, and beautiful. What more could I want?" John snorted. "You're blinded by love, Chris. You're not thinking

The day of Gwen's funeral arrived, and Tris was surrounded by a sea of unfamiliar faces. She recognized only a few people, mostly family members, but the rest were strangers to her. Chris, however, was always by her side, holding her close and offering words of comfort. As Tris scanned the crowd, her eyes landed on a figure standing at the back, watching her with an intense gaze. Tris's heart skipped a beat as she recognized her father, Ed. Chris noticed Tris's distraction and followed her gaze. "Do you want to go talk to him?" he asked, his voice low and concerned. Tris shook her head. "No, I don't think so." Chris nodded understandingly and pulled Tris closer. "I'm here for you, Tris. Don't worry." As the funeral service came to a close, Chris's parents approached them. His mother, kind and warm, hugged Tris tightly. "I'm so sorry, dear. If there's anything we can do for you, please don't hesitate to ask." John, Chris's father, was cold and distant, his eyes barely mee

Three days had passed since Tris's return to the library, and Anne could sense the lingering sadness that still surrounded her friend. As soon as Tris walked in, Anne rushed over to her and enveloped her in a warm hug. "I'm so sorry, Tris," Anne whispered, her voice filled with compassion. "I can only imagine how hard this must be for you." Tris's eyes welled up with tears, but she quickly brushed them away, trying to compose herself. "Thanks, Anne," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. As they began their workday, Tris pushed her cart through the rows of shelves, returning books to their proper places. She was lost in thought, her mind still reeling from the loss of Gwen. Just as she was about to put away a stack of books, a hand reached out and tapped her on the shoulder. Tris spun around, startled, and found herself face to face with a young man. He was dressed in a sharp black suit, his hair perfectly styled, and his eyes gleaming with a hint of curiosity. Tris felt a

As Tris began to explain the situation with the mysterious man, Chris's expression turned serious. He listened intently, his eyes never leaving hers, as Tris told him about the man's familiar face and his interest in the rare book. "I don't know what to make of it," Tris said, feeling a sense of frustration. "But I have this feeling that there's something more going on here." Chris nodded thoughtfully. "I think you're right," he said. "There's definitely something strange about this guy." Tris felt a sense of relief that Chris was taking her concerns seriously. "I'm glad you believe me," she said, smiling slightly. Chris smiled back. "Of course I believe you," he said. "I know you're not the kind of person to jump to conclusions." Tris felt a sense of gratitude towards Chris. He always knew how to make her feel better, how to calm he

As the days went by, Tris began to feel a sense of acceptance wash over her. She was finally starting to come to terms with the loss of her grandmother, Gwen. The pain was still there, but it was no longer crippling. Tris found herself smiling again, laughing at the little things that used to bring her joy.On this particular morning, Chris didn't accompany Tris to the bus stop. He had told her that he needed to get to the office earlier than usual to take care of some things. Tris didn't mind, though. She was used to walking to the bus stop by herself.As she sat down on the bench at the bus stop, Tris noticed an elderly woman walking towards her. The woman was using a cane, and her silver hair was styled in a neat bob. Tris couldn't help but think of Gwen as she watched the woman approach.The woman sat down beside Tris on the bench, giving her a warm smile. Tris smiled back, feeling a pang of nostalgia. She remembered the countless afternoons she had spent with Gwen, listening to h

As the day wore on, the library became increasingly crowded. Tris and Anne were run off their feet, trying to keep up with the steady stream of patrons. The tables were filled with students and researchers, and the circulation desk was constantly busy. Tris's eyes darted back and forth, trying to keep track of everything that was going on. She could feel the stress building up inside her, but she was determined to stay on top of things. As the lunch hour approached, Tris turned to Anne and said, "I don't think we're going to be able to take lunch together today. It's just too crazy." Anne nodded in agreement, her eyes scanning the crowded room. "Yeah, I don't think that's going to be possible. You're going to need some help keeping up with all these people." Tris smiled wryly. "Tell me about it. Why don't you go ahead and take lunch first? I'll cover the desk and try to keep everything under control." Anne nodded, looking relieved. "Sounds good to me. I'll go grab somethin

As the chaotic afternoon slowly came to a close, Tris couldn't help but notice that Anne seemed to be smiling more than usual. Every time she glanced at her phone, a faint smile would play on her lips.Tris's curiosity was piqued, and she found herself wondering what was behind Anne's sudden change in demeanor. She tried to brush it off as mere speculation, but her mind kept wandering back to the possibility that something was amiss.As she checked her own phone, Tris realized that she hadn't received any messages from Chris all day. Not a single text or call. She felt a pang of unease, but she didn't want to jump to conclusions.Instead, Tris decided to take the initiative and send Chris a message. She typed out a quick "Hey, how's your day?" and hit send.But as the minutes ticked by, Tris began to feel a growing sense of unease. It took Chris almost 15 minutes to respond, and when he finally did, his message was brief and lacking in detail."Hey, it's been crazy," Chris wrote. "I'l

As Tris walked away from Chris, she felt a sense of closure and a new beginning. She knew that she had finally put the past behind her and was ready to move on with her life. Julian was waiting for her outside, a smile on his face as he saw her approaching. "Hey, how did it go?" he asked, concern etched on his face. Tris smiled, feeling a sense of relief wash over her. "It went well," she said. "I forgave him and we both got closure." Julian's face lit up with a warm smile. "I'm so proud of you, baby," he said. "You're an amazing woman." Tris blushed, feeling happy and content. "Thanks, Julian," she said. "I couldn't have done it without you." Julian took her hand, his eyes filled with love and adoration. "You'll never have to do anything alone again, Anna," he said. "I'll always be here for you." Tris smiled, feeling grateful for the love and support Julian had given her. "I know," she said. "And that means everything to me." They walked hand in hand for a while, enjo

As Tris thought about Julian's words, she felt a sudden surge of clarity. She realized that she had been holding onto her anger and resentment towards Chris for far too long."It's not his fault," Tris said to herself, her voice barely above a whisper. "It's not his fault that my heart and life fell apart."Tris thought back to the beginning of her relationship with Chris. She had chosen to trust him, to believe in him. And when he had betrayed that trust, she had felt like her whole world had been turned upside down.But as she thought about it now, Tris realized that she had been just as much to blame as Chris. She had chosen to ignore the warning signs, to overlook the red flags. She had chosen to believe in Chris, even when her instincts had told her otherwise."I was just as guilty as he was," Tris said to herself, her voice filled with a newfound understanding. "I chose to trust him, to believe in him. And when he betrayed that trust, I felt like my whole world had been turned u

Just as the tension between Tris and Alex was escalating, Julian appeared out of nowhere, his eyes scanning the scene before him. When he saw Chris, his expression darkened, and he quickly moved to stand behind Tris, his arms wrapping protectively around her. "Anna, what's going on?" Julian asked, his voice low and even. Tris turned to him, her eyes welling up with tears. "It's Chris," she said, her voice shaking. Julian's eyes narrowed, his gaze fixed on Chris. "What are you doing here?" he asked, his tone cold. Chris held up his hands, a placating expression on his face. "I didn't mean to cause any trouble," he said. "I just wanted to start a new life, away from my family and all the drama." Tris snorted, her eyes flashing with anger. "You expect us to believe that?" she said. Chris sighed, his shoulders slumping. "I know I hurt you, Tris," he said. "But I'm not here to cause any more pain. I just want to move on with my life." Julian's arms tightened around Tris, holding he

Two days had passed since Tris and Julian's romantic night together. But now, Tris was feeling far from romantic. She was feeling weak and lethargic, and she couldn't stop vomiting.At first, Tris had tried to brush it off as exhaustion from taking care of the house. But as the day wore on, she couldn't shake off the feeling that something was wrong.Julian had been watching her with concern, and he had finally had enough. "Anna, we're going to the hospital," he said, his voice firm.Tris shook her head, trying to protest. "I'm fine, Julian. I just need to rest."But Julian was insistent. "No, Anna. You're not fine. You're vomiting and you have a fever. We need to get you checked out."Tris tried to argue, but Julian was too strong. He scooped her up in his arms and carried her out to the car.As they drove to the hospital, Tris couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. What if something was seriously wrong with her? What if she was really sick?Julian must have sensed her fear, becau

Tris had spent all afternoon cooking Julian's favorite meal: roasted chicken with garlic mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables. She had set the table with candles and flowers, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.Just as she was finishing up, Tris heard the sound of the front door opening. Julian was home. She smiled to herself, knowing that he would be pleased with the dinner she had prepared.As Julian walked into the kitchen, Tris's heart skipped a beat. He looked tired and hungry, his eyes scanning the room for food. When he saw the spread on the table, his face lit up with a smile."Wow, Anna, you've outdone yourself," Julian said, his stomach growling with anticipation. "I'm starving."Tris laughed and playfully rolled her eyes. "Not yet, you're not eating yet," she said, teasing him.Julian raised an eyebrow, his eyes sparkling with amusement. "What do you mean? I'm famished."Tris smiled slyly. "I want you to wait. I want to make this a special night."Julian's eyes narro

Tris stood in the stables, her eyes fixed on Starlight, her beloved horse. She was trying to hold back tears, but they kept streaming down her face. Leaving the mansion, where she had grown up and shared so many memories with her family, was harder than she had anticipated.Julian had refused to let her sell the mansion, insisting that it was a part of her heritage and that she should keep it. He had also promised to keep all the staff employed, so they could continue to take care of the estate and Starlight.Tris was grateful for Julian's thoughtfulness, but it didn't make leaving any easier. She felt like she was abandoning a part of herself, leaving behind the only home she had ever known.As she stroked Starlight's mane, Tris whispered, "Thank you for waiting for me, girl. I'm so sorry I had to leave you for so long."Starlight nickered softly, as if she understood Tris's words. Tris smiled through her tears, feeling a deep connection to her horse."I'll be back, I promise," Tris

Days turned into weeks, and Tris struggled to come to terms with her new reality. She had lost her father, and with him, a part of herself. The grief was overwhelming, and she felt like she was drowning in a sea of sadness.As she wandered around the empty mansion, Tris couldn't help but feel a sense of loneliness. She had never felt so alone in her life. Her father was gone, and her mother had been gone for years. She had no siblings, no close relatives. All she had was Julian.And Julian, dear Julian, was trying his best to be there for her. But even his love and support couldn't fill the void in her heart. Tris felt like she was just going through the motions, waiting for the day when she could finally find some peace.The wedding, which was supposed to be a joyous celebration, now felt like a distant obligation. Tris and Julian were supposed to get married in just a week, but Tris couldn't muster up the enthusiasm to care. She felt like she was just pretending to be happy, pretend

The day of Ed's funeral arrived, and Tris was surprised to see a sea of faces gathered to pay their respects. She had always thought that her father was a cold and arrogant man, and that no one would show up to his funeral.But as she looked around, she saw that she was wrong. There were hundreds of people there, all of whom seemed to have been touched by Ed's life in some way. Tris didn't recognize a single face, but it was clear that her father had made a profound impact on the lives of those around him.Tris felt a lump form in her throat as she gazed out at the crowd. She had been so blind to her father's true nature, and now it was too late to make amends.Julian, sensing her distress, wrapped his arm around her shoulders and pulled her close. "I'm here for you, Anna," he whispered, his voice trembling with emotion. "I'll never leave your side."Tris felt a wave of gratitude wash over her, and she leaned into Julian's embrace. She was so glad that he was there to support her thro

As they stepped into Julian's apartment, Tris felt a sense of excitement wash over her. It was as if no time had passed at all, and they were back to where they had left off.Julian smiled, his eyes roving over her face. "You look stunning tonight, Anna," he said, his voice low and husky. "That dress was made for you."Tris blushed, feeling a flutter in her chest. "Thank you," she whispered, her eyes locked on his.They stood in the living room, the city lights twinkling outside the window. Julian walked over to the window and pushed it open, allowing the cool night air to sweep in.Tris felt a shiver run down her spine as the breeze caressed her skin. Julian turned to her, his eyes burning with intensity."Come here," he whispered, his voice barely audible.Tris's heart skipped a beat as she walked towards him, her heels clicking on the floor. Julian's eyes never left hers, his gaze drawing her in like a magnet.As she reached him, Julian wrapped his arms around her, pulling her clos
