His Knees, His Pleas, But Our Son's in Peace novel Chapter 82

Chapter 82 

I watched Carlos turn away, a wave of frustration rolling off him. My heart raced 

as I rushed to catch up with him, desperate to explain. 

But just as I reached for his arm, I was blocked by his bodyguard. I recognized him immediately; he was familiar with me from past encounters. He stood tall and firm, his expression serious. 

“Sorry, but you can’t go near him,” he said, crossing his arms as he turned his back to Carlos. I could see Carlos’s shoulders tense, but I noticed the bodyguard quickly shot me a sideways glance, his face twisting into a subtle smirk. He was pretending to be mean, but I could tell he was on my side. 

“Please, just let me talk to him,” I begged, trying to sound weak and vulnerable. I took a small step forward, hoping to appeal to the bodyguard’s sense of 

compassion. 

The bodyguard looked back at Carlos, then lowered his voice, leaning closer to me. “I’ll let you through, but you didn’t hear it from me, alright?” he said with a wink, then turned to Carlos with a stern expression. “You’re not allowed to see her.” 

Carlos glanced at me, surprise flickering in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. “Let her in,” he said coolly, clearly trying to play it off as if he were in 

control. 

I could sense the tension in the air, a mixture of unspoken feelings and unresolved issues swirling between us like a storm. 

The bodyguard stepped aside, allowing me to pass. I hurried toward Carlos, my heart racing with a mix of hope and anxiety. 

Every step felt significant, each one echoing my determination to bridge the gap that had formed between us. “Carlos,” I started, my voice trembling, “I’m sorry for

how things went earlier. I dialed the wrong number, and it wasn’t what it 

seemed.” My throat tightened as I spoke, the weight of my emotions threatening to 

spill over. 

He studied me for a moment, his eyes searching mine as if trying to read my thoughts. I could feel my pulse quicken under his gaze, a nervous energy coursing through me. 

Then, as if a light had flicked on, I saw his expression soften slightly. “It’s alright,” he said, letting out a sigh that seemed to release some of the tension in the room. “Just… don’t shut me out like that again.” His words carried an undercurrent of concern, a reminder that despite the misunderstanding, he still cared. 

I nodded, relief flooding through me at his understanding. “I promise I won’t,” I said, my voice steadying as I regained my confidence. 

The weight of his acceptance felt like a balm to my anxious heart. It was a moment of connection that reminded me of the bond we shared, one that I hadn’t wanted 

to fracture. 

In that instant, I realized how important it was for me to communicate openly with him, to trust him with my feelings instead of retreating into my own 

thoughts. 

The thought of doing so gave me strength, and I felt a renewed sense of hope for what lay ahead. 

Carlos continued, “Your most important task right now is to protect yourself.” He pause, his gaze turning serious. “Cyrus is being taken care of by someone I arranged for. You don’t have to worry about him.” 

Hearing this brought a wave of relief. “Thank you, Carlos. That means a lot,” I replied, feeling a weight lift from my shoulders. I had been so caught up in my own struggles that I had almost forgotten about Cyrus and his situation. 

As we stood there, I felt my phone buzz in my pocket. I pulled it out to check the

message. My heart sank as I saw the invitation from Nathan. 

The Johnson PACK insignia was plastered across the top, making it all too real. It felt mocking, like a slap in the face. Sienna must be feeling very happy right now, I thought bitterly, imagining her smile as she prepared for the wedding.
