Lisa stood statically on the spot in a daze, looking at the car that exited just now through the hospital gate. Carl Black kept staring at her petite figure through the side mirror until she was in his line of sight. Closing his eyes, he leaned back to the seat.
Half an hour later, they reached the villa. Lisa also arrived at the villa, five minutes after they had reached. Both the brothers and Helen Black were talking about something, sitting on the sofa in the living room. Helen Black looked at Lisa coldly once she entered the villa. She was a little unhappy with her. "Now you have time to come. What sickness did you have that you didn't show up once in the hospital?"
Embarrassed, Lisa remained quiet, looking down at her toes. Carl Black was only gazing at her the moment she entered the room. Helen Black's words and her c
Lisa lowered her head as tears welled up in her eyes. She didn't want to show them her tears. It took her whole to send the tears back. Carl Black clenched his fist tightly under the table noticing Mack Black act restlessly. He felt a twinge in his heart seeing how rudely his brother was treating Lisa. He stole a glance at her and said, "Finish the food fast. It's getting cold." Lisa nodded feebly and tried to eat. But after taking two bites she couldn't eat anymore. She felt so sore in her throat while swallowing the food. She tried to stay calm and not to cry but her eyes burned as fresh tears began to accumulate in her eyes. She only poked the food with the fork. When Helen Black saw her not eating, she asked worriedly, "Why are you not eating? Do you still feel uncomfortable?"
Daniel Brooke placed his hand around her shoulder, offering a wide smile to Carl Black, "I was asking her to go for dinner with me." He then looked down at her and asked, "Am I right, sweetheart?" Lisa didn't hear anything that Daniel Brooke asked. Her only concentration was on Carl Black, who was also looking at her indifferently. Without changing the slightest bit of expression, Carl Black asked Lisa again, "Are you coming?" Lisa came to her senses and brushed off Daniel Brooke's hand from her shoulder. She was about to go to Carl Black, but Daniel Brooke held her wrist and asked with a worried tone, "Sweetheart, you promised to go with me. Have you changed your mind?" Shocked, Lisa looked back at Daniel Brooke with wide eyes and mouth agape. He lied deliberately. He had already created a misunderstanding
Few more days passed. Lisa recovered from the fever and started going to her work. During these days she hardly encountered Carl Black, despite living in the same house. Whenever they crossed their path they just looked at each other for a few moments and went back to their respective work without a word. Such a life was suffocating. Lisa wanted to clear the misunderstanding but whenever she encountered him, she couldn't invoke her courage to speak after seeing his cold dark eyes. The same was with Carl Black also. He wanted to take care of her but he didn't know whether it was his ego or the regret for mistreating her, he suppressed his desire to talk to her. They both mostly avoided each other. That day when Lisa came back from the institute she saw him packing his things. She panicked and asked in a frenzy, "Where are you going?"
Carl Black only glanced at her and didn't pay further attention. The lady came closer and leaned forward to him. She was wearing a deep-cut 'V' neck dress, exposing a sumptuous amount of her breast in front of Carl Black. For a few seconds, he couldn't pull back his eyes from her chest. She glanced at him provocatively and caressed his cheek with her slender finger, "I saw you every night coming here and drinking alone. Are you unhappy in your married life or your girlfriend ditched you?" Annoyed, Carl Black pushed her away, "None of your business." She chuckled and leaned back on the counter, "Ah... so it's a girlfriend problem." Leaning forward on him again, she whispered in his ear, "I can solve your problem. I know what you exactly need. Do you want to come with me?"
In that video clipping, one woman was on top of Carl Black. She was moaning loudly in pleasure. In the other messages, there were few photographs of him chatting with that woman in a bar. She was leaning on him, looking seductively. There was no doubt what could have happened between them. Lisa felt like her world collapsed. Due to anger, he ended up sleeping with another woman. Did he hate her so much that he punished her in this way? There was an indescribable pain in her heart. Pulling her hair in frustration, she cried, but she immediately covered her mouth as she was scared to think that Helen Black might hear her sobbing. Meanwhile, her eyes landed on the phone. Unable to control her anger, she grabbed the phone and was about to throw it, but the ph
They saw the taxi, standing in front of the gate. Carl Black put the suitcase in the trunk and looked at Lisa, who was ready to get inside the car. He held her wrist to stop her. Lisa looked up at him only to meet his deep black eyes staring straight at her tenderly. There were so many emotions in his eyes. Her heart started racing faster. After so many days, she was seeing the tenderness in his gaze. There was no coldness and indifference at that moment. She was missing his love and care. For a moment, she wanted to throw herself on him, but she suppressed the impulse and looked away from him. She tried to pull her hand back, but his grip tightened. Taking a deep breath, she said indifferently "It's getting late." She didn't look at him becau
The situation inside the car was awkward. Neither Carl Black nor Lisa made the slightest noise. Lisa continued looking outside, leaning back on the seat. Her eyes were blank devoid of hope. He wanted to say so many things but other than glancing at her from time to time, he didn't say a single word. Half an hour's journey ended very soon, and they reached her apartment. She got out of the car before Carl Black could open the door for her. She looked up at him to say 'good night' but when she saw his black eyes, staring at her intensely, her voice died inside her throat. Actually, she also didn't part with him so soon, but he was not saying a single word other than staring at her. They leveled their stare at each other speechlessly. Their hearts were beating faster, and their breathing was also heavy.
Half an hour later, Daniel Brooke and Lisa reached a luxurious restaurant where they came several times earlier. He already booked a table, and they went straight there. Then he called a waiter and ordered Lisa’s favorite dishes. She didn't lift her head the entire time and only looked down on her lap, lowering her head. "I am delighted that finally, we are getting back together. I broke up with Jasmine. Now it's your turn." With that, he took out the divorce agreement from his bag and passed it to her. He took out a pen from the inner pocket of his coat and kept it on the table. Lisa looked down at the document with a pain in her heart, "You need to delete those photographs and the video." She raised her head slowly and looked at him with her unwavering gaze, "After that only, I will sign on it."&nbs
