CHAPTER 497
“Drop her at work and then come to the site,” Richard told Denver and went on foot.Denver waited in the old car.A few minutes later.Diane walked out of the house, neatly dressed up. After putting on the makeup, she looked much better.Denver pushed the door open.However, Diane did not enter the car.“Are you still mad about what happened yesterday?” Denver asked. “How long are you going to hold onto that?”“If you give me the money back, I will enter the car,” Diane replied.Denver paused for a moment and said, “I can give you the money, but then I’ll tell Uncle about it.”Diane glared. “Do you take me for a fool?”“I ask you the same question, Diane,” Denver replied in a soft voice.Diane didn’t say anything.“How do you think I felt when your friends laughed at me, and you did nothing to stop them, much less correct their attitude?” Denver asked. “Are you behaving like someone who’s going to marry me? You tell me.”“If your dad tells you all of a sudden that you’re going to marr
CHAPTER 496
Catherine had come to her pool property and was getting everything ready.Her father’s words, ‘tell me what you want,’ kept coming back to her mind and distracted her very much.“Even if I said it out loud, would anything have changed?” she shook her head. “No. I want him to come to me without you telling him a word, Dad. Think of it as foolishness or selfishness or whatever it is… I can’t express my feelings after you all have put me in such a shitty situation.“How embarrassing it would be if I tell anyone that he comes into my dreams almost every night. He doesn’t come to me in real life anymore, but he never leaves in the dreams. It’s so fucking annoying!“Does he at least think of me before sleeping, or did he set his mind on marrying Diane already? He hasn’t seen even ten percent of her shades yet. I hope he realizes that and tells my dad that he wants me instead. But all this sounds like a daydream to me!”Just then, a tall young lady entered the property.She seemed the same a
CHAPTER 495
The next morning.Subrina came downstairs and saw Denver cleaning the hall with a broom.She unlocked his room door.When he was about to enter, she blocked his path. “Give me the money. 2500 dollars.”“I’ll give you, but then I’ll tell Uncle,” he replied.Subrina gritted her teeth. “You can just keep it a secret.”“I can’t. I’m keeping a list of every dollar I earned and every dollar I spent,” Denver said. “It’s for our family’s future.”“You’ve learned how to talk nicely, Denver,” Subrina snorted. “I’ll give you that, but..” she grabbed his shirt collar. “If you make my daughter cry again for whatever reason, I’ll make you regret it.”Denver’s expression didn’t change one bit. “Which daughter?” he asked.Subrina’s expression changed, and she let go of his collar.Denver walked past her, and she didn’t stop him.After he shut the door, Subrina walked toward the kitchen with a frown on her face. (Catherine, you foolish girl. Why did you fall for this brute of a guy? Just what do you l
CHAPTER 494
Catherine took a long shower and then lay flat on her bed.After doing nothing for a few minutes, she grabbed her diary and opened it.There were two names on the front page with a heart symbol in between.The first name was Catherine and the second name was Denver.She grabbed a pen and brought it closer to Denver’s name. She wanted to strike it and make it invisible, but she couldn’t do it.And it frustrated her.She started flipping pages and saw the words she had written on different days and nights.Some were about her own life, and some were about her ongoing struggle with Denver.She stopped by the page when it was her last birthday.On that day, she wrote just a few lines:‘Every moment that I live, I want to live it with you.Every breath I take, I want to fill it with you.Whatever my future holds, I want to live it with you.Whatever path it may take, I will walk it with you.’These words turned Catherine’s eyes wet.“I’ve hidden you in my heart, Denver,” she uttered weakly
CHAPTER 493
Catherine shut down her pool and was returning home at night.The pool property wasn’t far from home, so she was walking on foot. Even though there was nobody in sight, she wasn’t afraid of the streets.It was cold outside, so she was shivering a bit.It reminded her of the moment when Denver gave her a blanket when they were on the rooftop of their house.That was the first and the only moment a man or anyone for that matter offered her a cloth to cover her from the cold atmosphere.“Denver, that fool… why does he not go against my dad’s word?” Catherine kicked an empty soft drink can in frustration. “He’s more docile than a pet dog! Our neighbor’s dog is better rebellious than him!”She followed after the can and went to the middle of the road to kick it once more.A car zoomed toward her in a jiffy.She quickly moved to the side, and the car bruised past her face.Catherine’s eyes widened very much.If she had been a second late, she would have been a goner as the car was going at
CHAPTER 492
Denver walked nearly six miles and came home almost two hours after Diane left in the car.Richard was out in the verandah, feeding milk to a stray cat.One looked at Denver, and Richard understood the situation.“You didn’t get the haircut, and you came hours after Diane came home,” Richard let out a breath. “I don’t know what happened, but please bear with her.”“I’m not angry anymore, Uncle,” Denver said. “All the walking helped cool my body.”“Just what did she do for you to talk like that,” Richard asked.It was rare to see Denver get upset at home, so Richard was worried that Diane might have done something to irritate or upset Denver.“Not much,” Denver took out the restaurant bill and gave it to Richard before entering the home.After seeing the bill, Richard’s eyes popped out of the sockets. “What in the world… Two and half thousand dollars for dinner? What the hell did you two eat? It may be the Bob’s restaurant, but this amount is ridiculous! What did you two buy?”“It’s no
