Chapter 168: Chapter 168 Sealing Promises

Kelly’s POV

“Can I ask you something?” Pierre broke the deafening silence between us. It’s been almost 5 minutes since he decided to stay but we’re just sitting on the couch across from each other, silent until he spoke just now.

I lifted my face and nodded. “Yes…”

“Did you ever think of telling me about Snow?”

I looked down and bit my bottom lip. Now, he’s ready.

“Yes,” I said, almost a whisper. “I always thought about telling you, but… I-I’m scared…”

“Scared of what?”

“Scared of your anger.”

I heard him sucked his breath. I squeezed my eyes and swallowed hard.

“You had a chance when we’re together after you ran away from Klay Carver. You had the chance when you came back and we met again. I never give you mixed signals, Kelly. I was wrong. I wronged you, but you said you already forgave me so I don’t understand why you had to hide the truth from me.”

I don’t know what to say. I don’t want to apologize again because I know it will only worsen the pain he’s feeling.
