The Love Trap of the Ruler.
Chapter 89. Acknowledgments.
Xavier walked slowly with a cane towards Graciella and Moira's room. He knocked on the room. Before long Graciella's figure appeared to open the door of her room.
"Is he still sleeping?" xavier asked glanced towards the inside of the room. Moira was already soundly asleep covered by her thick blanket. The air has been pretty cold lately.
"So she woke up for a while but was asleep again" Greciella said. He must calm his mind. I don't know why lately he's always thinking about the man he used to sleep with. Maybe because he saw Moira until his curiosity appeared.
"Are you tired today?" ask Xavier stale.
"No, why?"
Xavier chose his lips for a moment, "I want to talk to you alone." Xavier looked seriously at Graciella.
Getting such a pansing made Graciella frown her forehead. What does Xavier want to say? it seems very serious.
"Well, where do you want to be?" said Greciella, certainly not comfortable talking while standing like this, let alone the state of Xavier like this.
"In the middle of the room only," said Xavier.
Graciella nodded, she slowly walked over and slightly helped Xavier to get them to the living room faster.
Xavier looked at Graciella's bead. To be honest, he was hesitant and afraid of the rejection that Greciella might make. But whatever he has to do. There's no way to lie to Greciella forever. After all, he did not want to be called uncle by his own daughter forever. Xavier took Greciella's hand and grasped it tightly and warmly.
"Three years ago, do you remember the party at the Sangri-La hotel?" ask Xavier.
Greciella bit her lip. He seemed to know what Xavier wanted to say, but he again did not want to guess. The truth is not not not not wanting to guess, more towards not wanting to accept. He can't accept if it's true what's now in his head.
"I was there too" said Xavier.
Greciella breathed heavily. He really knows the direction of this conversation. "No, I don't want to hear what you want to say."
"I'm the man you've been sleeping with and I'm Moira's biological father. Stevan's been doing DNA testing and 99% of our DNA is the same" Xavier just said so as not to ramble. Everything should be clear and the instant he finished saying it, his burden lifted slightly.
"I don't want to hear this! why are you telling me?" said Graciella who shook her head. For him the events of that night were the source of his suffering. He really can't accept Xavier saying it now! why now?
"But I have to say before we get married" Xavier said.
"Why? why did you just now come suddenly to say this? oh! i knew! you feel pity, don't you? you've planned all this! won't it? butwhy? why just now! you know what you've been doing to me for three years?" greciella said with a broken cry.
To be honest he already knew Xavier was most likely the man. From earlier when he put Moira back to sleep, he kept thinking about it and made himself riled up. Now Grarciella knows the truth. Graciella just wants to know why Xavier just came into her life now? where was he before? three years? that's a long time?
"Listen to my explanation. It's not what you think it is. I was really looking for you, but my parents manipulated everything until I was wrongly responsible. They asked another woman for you to take your place and said that the woman I was sleeping with was a prostitute."
"Grecie ...."
"No! don't call my name! I-I-I-I guess I want to calm myself down first! we better not talk first! I don't want to talk to you!" said Graciella who immediately left Xavier.
"Gracyella! please listen to me first!" Xavier tries to chase after Graciella. But in a hurry Xavier fell down because his legs had been moved. He even forgot to use a cane and set his foot in a cast.
"Geek!" ringis Xavier who did feel pain and linu who was very painful when his feet stepped on the floor.
Graciella immediately looked towards Xavier who was lying grimacing in pain. In fact, Greciella's anger is not as great as her care for this man. Graciella quickly returned to Xavier.
"Which one hurts?" He knew Xavier's leg was hurting but because he was so anxious he asked the stupid thing again.
Xavier looked at Graciella's face wryly. "I'm sorry" said Xavier. He doesn't want to explain it at length. He just needs Graciella's forgiveness.
Graciella looked at Xavier. Looking at the guilt-ridden face of Xavier. His anger just evaporated from anxiety. It seemed, her affection for this man defeated her hatred.
"I'll help you get to the bedroom" Graciella said. He tried
help Xavier to get up, re-hugging the body of that field. Slowly he walked over and brought Xavier back to his bed.
"Is your leg still hurting? I'll get her some painkillers" Graciella said, again held back by Xavier by clutching Greciella's wrist.
"Grachiella, I'm sorry. I know I've ruined your life for three years. I know you're suffering. But I will try my best to do what's best for you and Moira. I know I won't be able to make amends, but give me a chance. I want to protect you both." slowly Xavier tried to pull Graciella to sit back on the edge of the bed nearby.
Graciella looked at the face of the man whose gaze was full of feelings. Graciella took her breath. "If it's just out of pity and feeling guilty it's better not to do that. I wouldn't want to be around people who feel sorry for me."
"What if I'm really in love with you?"
Graciella.
"It was probably all because of responsibility at first, but now I'm sure I'm really in love with you."
Greciella remained silent not knowing what to say. It seemed like he was also worried about the same thing but he could not say that now.
"Greciella, do you still have doubts? if so then marry me, "pinta Xavier again who makes Graciella's eyes slightly enlarged.
"Marriage is not a joke, it's not a game, but it's forever. I failed once, and I don't want to be the same again."
"I know, especially for a soldier. A soldier can only marry once and must not divorce unless the demands of his wife. So I'll make sure I don't play games to get you married. Graciella, will you marry me?"
