Chapitre 8: Chapter 8

"Do you want to ask me about the marriage proposal I made to you when you saved me? If yes, then know that the offer still stands," she mumbled keeping her gaze on the water while staying focused.

"Are you serious about that?" he asked again and she nodded slowly still looking and the water she further asked her whether he was interested in the job but Hendrick seeing it as an insult to him, bit his lips in disgust and offense thinking that she was very rude to still repeat that to him but Daniella was not bothered about what he was saying because she had own problems inside her head making her l so down already and the additional stress he was about to bring was not needed at the moment.

"Are you always like this with everyone?" he asked and Danny asked him how she was with him, Hendrick splashed it to her face saying,

"You are a very rude lady and to think that I was already happy inside of me that you are different from the other rich spoiled brats that I have seen, but no I was completely wrong about you," his words were harsh and she could not take it anymore and with her tension rushing up, she road up to her feet and asked him who he thinks he is to talk to her in such a manner worse still to say things which he knows nothing about?

"That is the impression you are giving me as I went out of my way to cheer you up without even knowing you but here you are, giving me an attitude ma'am, a very disgusting one at that," he uttered feeling all terrible.

"Disgusting? Did you just say that to me?" she yelled out in an uncontrollable rage, realizing that her body was getting weak but Daniella was not liking his tone and she could not leave what had happened to take place with him as no man was going to have the right to hurt her again, not even her father.

Hendrick could feel the heat that was gathering between them and he was not liking it. Normally, he was not talkative and did not love to batter words with anyone most especially ladies as he was aware of the venom that they were having in their mouths In the form of words.

"I can see that you are doing very well ma'am and if there is nothing to be some here anymore, I will take my leave now, and please do not commit suicide anymore because, you did not create your own life so you have no right to take it away, no matter what you are going through, do not attempt to take your own life again," he said before picking up his slippers on the beach the and turning his back to go, she told him not to tell her what to do because he does not know anything about her nor the things she might be going through so it was of no use to acting all righteous like he was pushing to the limit to do.

Realizing that she was just wanting to make trouble, Hendrick knew that he had done his part and needed to leave his sick mother at home alone. Walking away, he felt something fall on him and wondering what it was, he look down as he felt it fall on him and go down and to his surprise, he saw his jacket on the sand.

That's the jacket her had given to her, to prevent the cold from touching her but it was obvious that she was not interested in having it anymore and without any words, he did not even turn to look at her but he lowered himself to pick up his jacket from the ground, asking himself why all ladies were the same with a problematic character which was so awful sometimes but unfortunately for him, he could not get any answers.

Moving away not wanting to exchange statements with her anymore, Daniella's breathing had changed its rhythm and she was beginning to gasp for air with her body getting so cold like a fish freshly taken out of the water. Not being able to talk and wanting to ask for help from him, she trembled feeling so much cold which led to her falling on the ground with her whole being, affected by the cold and tears rolling down her eyes.

"Help me please, don't go, come back," she pleaded with the little strength that was left In her, feeling terrible as her stubbornness had landed her into deep problems and she had used her mouth to push her philanthropist away.

Hendrick was very angry in his spirit and could not explain why someone will be so ungrateful like her to speak so rudely to someone who just wanted to help her but well, going back to his house and telling himself that it was none of his business, he felt stands all of a sudden as a voice told him to turn behind to check what she was doing but Hendrick not wanting her to think that she was weak, kept on going on without bothering to know what was going on behind him.

When he felt the silence that was behind him, Hendrick thought that it was because, she was sitting quietly not wanting to bother him but when he turned his gaze have a look at her, he was stunned at what he was seeing being him and without a second thought, Hendrick ran off to her with his heartbeat rising like someone who had seen his loved one at the verge of dying before his eyes.

"What is the matter Danny?" he asked feeling all sacred that she was dying and touching her body, it was colder than how she was some moments again. Hendrick seeing the tears that were flowing down her eyes were forced to get her up from the ground and take her into his arms, there was nothing like waging anymore as she was as cold as a fish.
