Chapitre 63: 60 : Bad News
Days passed and London was getting more tired.
Thomas would come home with different people every night and they made love like crazy in their marital bed.
He was still cold with London though he would make breakfast for the man and buy him flowers from time to time.
Thomas wasn't violent with him. He would just treat him like thin air.
With this, London had hope to not love Thomas anymore but he couldn't. He was still in love with Thomas and he wanted the man to notice him like before and loved him like before. But was he ever loved actually ?
" - Are you okay ?" Haru asked worried.
London looked up from his plate and said yes.
He didn't told anyone about what was happening.
Not that Thomas threatened him, but he was afraid that his grandpa would get sick about it. And though he hated his family, London wanted to protect the empire his grandpa had spend youth and years to build.
Thomas subtly let him know that he would destroy his family if he tried to file a divorce.
London didn't know what Thomas wanted but his guts were telling him that, his family did something to Thomas. Otherwise, why would he marry London and why would he target the Priest family ?
" - I… found a job," London said to Haru.
It was true. He was sick of Thomas' behavior so he decided to work. He was working in a flower shop with Nana Moma, his grandpa's old friend and the only elderly around his grandpa that he loved.
When London got married, his parent removed him from the family register so he got poor. His grandpa tried to give him money, but London had refused, thinking Thomas will support him, because that was what his husband had promised.
But now, this same support was weighing him and holding him down. Thomas wasn't cheap with London. Even though he seemed to hate London now, he would still give him money and wire some money on his bank account.
London just didn't want to touch Thomas' money. He'd rather have his own.
" - Really ??" Haru exclaimed happy.
" - Hum... A flower shop. My grandpa's college friend hold the shop. I never worked before so it's a bit new to me," London explained.
" - So Thomas is kind enough to let you work," Alicia said as she came in the living room to give them cake. " You both looked so much in love that I was sure you'd rather stay home."
London gulped down his sob.
" - He's working a lot so, I'm pretty much alone during the day," London lied.
" - I'm sure the shop receive more clients now. Having a beautiful man working there must make Moma happy," Alicia said.
" - Do you know the manager of the shop ?" Haru asked as he stuffed his mouth with cupcake.
" - You know, in this circle we practically know everyone. Ren and father were closed with Moma before I got married in the Ogata family." Alicia explained. " Moma does beautiful bouquets."
" - Indeed. Her work is amazing," London replied with is soft smile.
Thomas would pick him up there after work every night and every time he would buy a bouquet and give it to London without a word.
" - What are you talking about ?" Akihito asked as he arrived with Thomas.
Today was Sunday and they were invited to a barbecue in the Ogata mansion.
Ren and Katsuki were outside grilling the meat and Akihito and Thomas were normally helping them.
Thomas sat next to London and took his hand in his. London flinched but didn't move nor closed his fingers even if Thomas was holding him tightly and lovingly... like before.
" - Flowers," Haru said after Akihito pecked his lips and sat next to him. " London is working in a flower shop."
" - At Nana Moma," Alicia said then.
" - Oh ! Her flowers are magnificent." Akihito said. " I bought a bouquet last week there for Haru. He cried when one of the servant accidentally broke the pot."
" - The flowers came from this place ?!?" Haru said surprised.
" - Zai wanted to buy one for Gordon so I wanted to please you too," Akihito said as he stroked his lover head.
London lowered his head, feeling a bit jealous. He secretly tapped Thomas' hand and asked the latter in a murmure to let him go, because he wanted to go to the bathroom.
When he stood up, Haru noticed his sad expression.
" - I think work is too tiring to him," Haru said to Thomas. " He looked like he need some rest."
Thomas didn't reply. He knew already what was making London like this but he didn't care. But at least, he wanted to treat him great because he couldn't treat him like his loved one anymore. He was tired of lying. That was why he revealed the thruth to London, even though he didn't say why he was doing all of that.
When London came out of the bathroom, Thomas was waiting for him outside. London wanted to ignore him but Thomas gently took his hand in his.
" - You don't wear your ring," Thomas said.
London frowned.
" - If you want to lie, keep lying, but don't push me in your fucking play." London said without strength before he goes back to the living room.
He sat down and drank a bit of water. For some reasons, he felt more tired theses past days.
It wasn't the first time that one of his lover use him like that, but… he had never really loved them though he was faithful. In the past, he just wanted to feel needed even when all they wanted was to brag about his name and his money.
Now, he was truly in love. He thought that maybe God decided to punish him. His husband was deceiving him since the beginning and he, as if he was possessed, couldn't walk away. Even if Thomas didn't remind him his position, London knew he wouldn't file a divorce. He was still hoping for something….
" - What's that ?!" Alicia screamed making everyone jump off their chair.
She turned on the volume of the TV while everyone gathered in the living room.
" - Breaking News : The heir of the Great Ogata Clan is dating a prostitute ? Who is he ? " the journalist in the TV said.
Haru stood up as he paled.
They showed a picture. His face was blurred but anyone knowing him could tell it was him.
The picture showed him in the Ogata garden. Was it the strange man he saw two months ago ?
Akihito pulled Haru in his arms. The omega was trembling.
" - It's okay Love. I'm here… No one will hurt you," he tried to soothe the omega.
" - Can you find out what happened and who leaked this photo ?" Alicia asked Thomas. " We never found the man who took those pictures but he probably sold these to a small tabloid. All the others big companies are working with us and not against us."
" - I'll tried my best to find any clue." Thomas replied.
" - Call Zaizen. He will be of great help," Akihito said to him still embracing his wife.
