Chapter 123
Lance didn’t leave the hospital, he was outside the ward the whole time, as if he was waiting for me.
He saw me and walked towards me in big steps. “We need to talk.”
I gave him a poker face and said, “We have nothing to talk about.”
But he ignored me and continued, “My men reported back to me about the accident just now, it was Tiffany Abel. We were on bad terms a while ago, she must have thought that me and you are still close so she wanted to take her revenge of me on you. You and your friend are hurt because of me and for this I apologize.”
Lance Mason was apologizing to me, he was saying sorry to me. To me,
this wasn’t a thing that I have ever expected. In my mind, Lance Mason was always the man up there, above all of us, he would never say sorry.
“You think I would believe you just like this? I never thought Tiffany is a nice person, but you, Lance Mason, you are not anyone nice too.”
About what happened between Tiffany and Lance, I read it from the social medias and of course some gossips. But I wasn’t sure if it was true or not. At first I thought they were childhood friends so they must have feelings for each other, but then once! left the country, Lance divorced her.
He divorced her just like that, so to a lot of people, their marriage was just for business benefits.
But to me, Lance ruined a woman’s golden period on her life.
“I know I was horrible to you, so if you misunderstood me, I can understand. In your eyes, I’m a jerk a bastard, and I don’t want to explain or justify myself. I will handle this and give you a valid answer, I will not let you get hurt out of nowhere!” Lance said, he sounded sincere. But I chose to not believe what he said. If this was done by
Tiffany, then Lance would be the perfect person to handle this. Deep down, I also knew there was no reason for Lance to kill me, if he wanted me dead, I wouldn’t be standing here by
now.
“I hope me and my friend wouldn’t be in any sort of danger anymore during our time in Denmark. Lance Mason, I will tell you this one more time, I do not owe you, the person who owed it to you is now dead.”
“I don’t need you to emphasize to me, you don’t owe me, I was the one who wronged you. I owe you, so I’m trying to make it up to you as best as I can, I don’t want you to just ignore your child like this just because of your hatred to me. She’s innocent.” Lance said, and turned around. he left. I stared at his back. He’s been telling me that he’s the one who owed me, he said that many times when I got back here. Did he really want to make it up to me? Why did I feel like it wasn’t possible?
“If she really is my child, then I will accept her, but Lance, I have to ask you. If she’s innocent, what about me? Am I innocent too?”
Lance stopped in his track when he heard what I said. He didn’t look at me, though.
“There’s no point brining up the
past anymore, like I said, I will make it up to you.”
“Make it up to me? Who the f*ck wants that? The hurt you brought me wouldn’t be able to just disappear!” | yelled, I was so mad I forgot that this was the hospital.
