Love Wins Over Lust novel Chapter 29

"I don't want to see that hypocrite with you anymore. I am sure he is still acting with you!"

Aurora closed her eyes. She understands that Susan was worried about her and had a right to do so considering her history with Liam. "Susie, my sweet sissy, I know you think that he is still acting and all but he is not, he loves me, Susan. He really does and most importantly, I am happy with him."

Susan gritted her jaw, crossed her hands against her chest and looked away. "Yes, your love, I know what love does to people. It makes them do stupid things, broke their self-esteem and make them weak!" She snapped then turned her head back to Aurora. "My mom suffered a lot because of this so-called love, and now you are going on the same path!"

"It's nothing like Susan, Liam is nothing like your bastard father. He never use me for sex and he would never look in the direction of another woman. He is mad for me. He has changed a lot for me, in these two months…"

"What? He became your prince charming! But let me tell you one thing, it's all temporary, once your body swells with a child he will not look at you the same way like he does now and once this child comes he is going to hate it too. He will find another woman…"

"Enough, Susan!" She snapped. "I told you, Liam is not like your father, he loves me like the way I am today and when my body will swell with my baby he will love me then too, he will love me if I lost my beauty, because he had seen me at my worst. I was bruised and swollen in the face, he kissed me and told me I am always beautiful in his eyes. I am not saying that he became an ideal man but you are right, he turned into my prince charming and you need to look beyond what your father did with your mom Susie…"

Susan closed her eyes as the painful memories of her childhood flashed in her memory. "Don't go there…"

"I am not going there, Susan. It's you who is still stuck there. I know your pain, I know it because I suffered the same pain of losing my mother. We grew up together, I know you don't say it and pretend that your father holds no importance in your life but deep inside it hurts you seeing him with a new woman. I know you…"

"It didn't matter to me, he is no one, Aurora. No one. I hate him and that's it!" She said in a shaky voice which sounded weak to her own ears.

Aurora swallowed the dryness in her throat and touched Susan's hand. "Susan, please stop judging everyone on the same scale. Your father is a bastard but Liam is not, he loves me and I have accepted him as my husband," then she glanced into her eyes and said what she wanted to say for a long time, since she came to know about her and Ralph.

"I think you should try to give another chance to Ralph as well, Susan."

Susan stiffened, her face turned pale at the mention of Ralph. "What chance? Who is Ralph? I am sorry but I am not a saint-like you, Aurora. I can't forgive a man who abused me, I have seen my mother suffering in this kind of relationship for years and now you are walking on the same path…"

"I told you Liam is not like that, stop comparing him with your dad!" Aurora snarled.

"Alright, I won't say anything about your husband but then you have no right to tell me what to do and what not to do. I made a mistake thinking that this live thing could be real but I saw the reality soon and luckily I didn't let this stupidity rule over me," she said and then took a deep breath to calm herself.

"I only want to see you happy and if this jerk gives you happiness, then live with him but I won't let him hurt you, not again…" before she could say anything else her eyes went to Liam who was walking towards them with a stoic expression on his face but when his eyes went to Susan his expression changed into something dark.

"Your prince charming is here."

Aurora turned her head and saw Liam. God give me the patience to handle these two jerks!

"Shall we leave for home, I don't want to be here for a single second anymore."

Aurora smiled. "Yes but can we take Susan with us, she…"

"No!" Liam answered before she could even finish the sentence and that bruised Susan's ego.

"Why? Are you scared that I will kill you on the way?" She taunted him.

Here goes my evening. I don't even miss Emily anymore. Liam and Susan gave me the same headache with their fights.

Liam gritted his jaw and took a step forward. "I am controlling myself from snapping your head into two, Miss kelly. So please, let me fulfil the promise I made to my wife and don't provoke me to kill you."

Aurora gasped. " You are awful, Liam. You can't speak to her like this!" She turned to Susan who was glaring at him with anger-filled eyes. "He won't do that Susie, he is just angry."
