Zayn held Lusy's wrist until the pill he wanted to take fell to the floor.
Lusy was so shocked that he looked at Zayn who was now standing before him. However, Lusy tries to be calm, assuming that Zayn must be afraid of him doing stupid things, such as suicide.
“It's just a pregnancy-preventing pill, Zayn. I drank it just in case,” Lusy explained.
Lusy hopes Zayn understands, but who would have thought if Zayn's reaction was different.
“I don't like you taking the pill,” said Zayn still holding Lusy's wrist.
Lusy looked at Zayn with astonishment, they were not a married couple, so why did Zayn have to forbid him from taking the pill.
“Zayn, I have to drink it. I don't want to if it gets to ..” Lusy stopped talking when he saw the dislike gaze of the man in front of him.
“I'll marry you if you're afraid of getting pregnant,” Zayn said with an unmoved look.
Lusy was stunned to hear Zayn's words, he did not understand why Zayn wanted to marry her because of the mistake of one night.
“Zayn, don't force yourself. Nor will I hold you accountable.” Lusy was self-aware of his status, disappointed he did feel, but Lusy did not want to be considered weak by begging for the man's mercy.
“But I want to take responsibility, even if necessary I will marry you today too,” Zayn said with confidence.
Lusy was flirting about why Zayn wanted to marry her so much, while the man was going to marry another woman.
“What? What do you mean?” Zayn was even confused to hear Lusy's words.
“I knew you were getting married, so last night I said I wanted to talk to you. I don't care if you leave me, before it's too late and we fall into a deep hole. Maybe we better end it today.” Lusy tried to explain, trying to remain calm even though his heart felt torn apart. Being lied to a second time, makes Lusy really the dumbest woman in the world.
“Married to whom? I'm just gonna marry you, Lu. No other woman, what are you really talking about? You're mad because I did it when you weren't aware?” ask Zayn because he misinterpreted the meaning of Lusy's words.
“Don't make me wish, Zayn.” Lusy's eyes suddenly glazed over. “I'm self-conscious if it doesn't deserve you. I'm fine if you've already been betrothed to another woman. So, let me make my own decision. I can't risk what happens tonight alone, so I need that pill, Zayn.”
Zayn gasped at Lusy's words, finally understanding where the conversation was going, and could guess what happened.
Zayn immediately hugged Lusy, leaving the woman shocked and unmoved as her weak body was in the man's arms.
“Whatever information you hear, it's not true, Lu. I was betrothed, but never once thought of accepting it. I will only marry you, even if you don't believe me, I can marry you today as well. About what happened last night, I will bear it. Pregnant or not, I will still marry you, there is nothing I will marry other than you,” Zayn said trying to calm down and respond to all Lusy's words with a cold head. He tries to convince Lusy, if he only wants the woman.
Lusy was initially silent, then cried and returned Zayn's embrace.
“I'm scared, Zayn. I was afraid that if I suddenly became pregnant, then you left me. How was my life after that? I can no longer bear the shame of all the mistakes I made. I can't afford it.” Lusy cried until he sobbed, he was really scared right now.
Zayn clenched tightly onto Lusy's body, even gently rubbing the woman's back.
“I promise I will never leave you, no matter what happens I will always be by your side. I'll take responsibility for you, Lu. So please believe me.”
