Chapter 219: Victory
Liam's place
"My love!" She tied her robe and spread out her arms like a dove ready to fly as she rushed to give him a tight hug.
He pushed her away from his embrace, "Get away from me, Lorena."
"Okay, fine." She dramatically flicked her hair and moved some inches away from him as she bit her lower lip. "At least go easy on me, don't be too hoarsely."
"Lorena," He took off his glasses and placed it in the glass box before shoving it into his pocket. "I'll just ask you a simple question and I expect a simple answer in return." He looked down at her. "Did you hurt someone in the past before we got married or when we already got married?"
She laughed. "Grayson, the question you just asked is very strong for–"
"Just answer the damn question for once!" He yelled. Making her to shiver.
"Well..." She pouted her lips with arms crossed as she tilt her head one side, "I don't know...I can't remember...."
"Oh really, so when did your brain because a forgettable element?" He gasped. "You didn't remember if you hurt an innocent woman and made her spend two years in comatose?"
Immediately he said 'Comatose' Her expression changed. Her eyes widen. She just remember a flash memory of her beating up an Asian woman in front of a shopping mall and then she ran away before the cops came.
"Lorena?" He frowned and turn her to face him as he noticed her sudden silence.
With one hand scratching the back of her neck, she faked a smile. She has to cover her mess. Something tells her that the woman has investigated to Grayson's cabin. Since they've divorce, Grayson might do anything to make sure she appear in court and go to jail for any offense.
"Hmm, yes sweetie–"
"Hey, enough." He warned vigorously. "Don't ever address me as your love or sweetheart or any sweet names again. My name is Grayson, get it?"
"Nice! But whenever that Petra woman calls you sweet names you–"
Cutting her off, he grab her up by the shoulders. Lifting her up to him, that her legs weren't touching the floor. He gritted his teeths, "That same Petra woman is better, sweeter, cuter, prettier and vivacious than a cunning nobody like you." He dropped her down.
She frowned at him as she fixed the robe and brush her hair with her fingers. "Next time be careful of how you grab people Grayson, you have no idea if–" She tapped the robe's pockets, "There's a pistol in."
"Lorena, that doesn't answer my question. Did–"
Cutting him off, she snapped angrily, "I didn't hurt anyone Grayson! I didn't! If someone walk into your mansion and break out a lie does that means that you should first of all carry out your investigation on me?"
"Yes!" He yelled. "Because you're capable of doing anything, Lorena. You've done alot in the past before my eyes. Do you know what eventually revolved in my head before I came here today?"
"What is that?"
"Ah, I'll tell you." He scoffed as he leaned closer to her ear, "That you're a professional sly killer." He inched back. He could see her hands clenching the robe. "What is it? Are you crazy because I said ten truth? You know am right, isn't it?" He grin.
"Enough of this accusations, Grayson. I didn't do anything, okay? Just because I cheated on you and we're divorce doesn't mean you'll cross all limits to the extent of calling me a killer."
"That's what you are and am not hiding it, Lorena Hamilton."
Her teeths gritted and she reached for his sleeve. Tightening her grasp on him, "Don't you dare call me a killer, I've done nothing wrong."
Jerking her hands off, he pushed her away, "Bloody liar! You're not even good at telling lies. If you want to prove your innocence, then come with me to court."
Lorena widen her eyes and began to step backward. Oh no, if she appear in court then her entire life is going to end up in jail. And Grayson will trust his instincts that he was right and that Petra? She'll rejoice and merry.
No, no, no, it can't be. She vigorously nodded in her thoughts. But what is she going to do now? If she doesn't put up an act, he'll hold her right here, right now and hand her to the police.
Walking her way to the couch, she sat as tears started rolling down her cheeks, "Fine, you won't believe me no matter how hard I try to explain."
"Hey, am not going to stand here and watch your fake tears."
Slowly turning her head to one side, she glare at him as she sniffed her nose innocently, "Take anywhere you want, I'll prove myself since you don't believe me."
Grayson suddenly became confused. He doesn't know what to do or what to believe at the moment. He thought she was the culprit responsible for the crime but from her expression, she seem so innocent.
"Do you realize that you're the genesis of my problems?" He asked. "Nelly gave me a grandson yesterday and I couldn't hold him in my arms because of the commotion you brought into my family, Lorena Hamilton."
"But I apologize and confessed and also promise never to have anything to do with your family again, didn't I?"
"After destroying my home? After shattering my family's linage? My kids now hate me with rage. Sebastian almost fought me twice since we last saw after twenty years." He wiped his eyes and try to be a man. "Lorena, you brought a huge problem into my life."
"Do you know how painful it is for one to see his own bloodline and couldn't touch it? Lorena–"
Cutting him off, she stood up as she broke out in tears, "Enough Grayson! Enough already. I lost my son too, yes, Liam broke all ties with me after his release from jail."
"And that's your fault not mine!" He shouted aggressively as he inched closer and stood in front of her, "Liam wasn't my bloodline from the start. Another man fucked you on my bed and you bore a child for him."
"We've already talked about that long time ago."
"And you're the one raising such disgusting issues again."
She stood up while looking up at him for quite some time, "Solve whatever problem you have with your family, Grayson. Am not part of the Flynns, so let today be the first and last day you'll ever step your foot into this mansion."
She passed him and stood by the door with a gesture, "Now get lost. Don't just get out, but get lost forever. I'm innocent of the crimes you're accusing me of. If I may be present in the trial, I'll come back with victory."
He dipped his hand into his pocket and brought out the box before putting on his glasses. He stopped in front of her as he narrowed his bloodshot eyes.
"Lorena Hamilton, if I find out that you have a hand in the calamities and war the Kims are pouring into my family. I swear, Lorena, I swear, I'll ruin your life that you'll regret ever coming into this world and you'll also pray you won't want to come back a second time." He fume out.
