Sold To The Wicked Him

Chapter 56



*** Years Later***

Lea POV

“Have you heard? She was a divorced woman”

“Really? How come she looks so young? And who is that person beside her? Isn’t she Ms. Klein?”

Words can be heard. Even though they are whispering, I can hear it so well. They don’t seem to hide it after all. I just let out a small smile as i could not help but find it funny.

Indeed, in their eyes, Me and Aiden are married once and now we are on our separate ways.

“Lea, I am so happy that you are back”

Sylphia giggled as she hugs me. I hugged her as well.

“Its been a while, Sylphia”

I smile as I hug her back. Even though she would visit me from time to time, I can’t help but miss her this much. After all, she is like a sister to me.

“It really is. Do you know how nosy Elton has been? Well, after you leave their wedding without even showing up, Aiya was so sad. I feel a bit bad for her but I let her know you are there. But yup, many things change in this place. You see?”

Nodding my head, it was really true. I have heard some news while I was overseas. That the government started to take actions. And to think that Mira would lead that… I can’t help but wonder what she is doing. As for Aiden… he really made a big name for himself. Who would think that man would…

Shaking my head, as much as possible, I don’t want to think about him. He seems to be doing great on his own…

Memories of Aiya and Elton’s wedding day then flashes in my eyes. A girl was there talking to him. he had that smile on his face I never seen. The time we part ways, he hugged me as if he never wants to let me go. But when I ask if I shall stay, he never stopped me. As if… he really want me to leave.

I don’t get him at all. But I was surely surprised with what he did. Although… the moment when I tried to reach him again… I was too late.

Hah… if I never leave, will anything like this would happen? If… I didn’t ask him to let me visit my grandmother… will everything be different?

I wonder if it was too much to me… but…

Even after so many years, I keep remembering those times when I am with Aiden. Even that trip we had together… although it was the first and last trip the two of us had…

“Lea, you are alright?” silphia asked, we are in the car for some while now. But I stopped talking. I should apologize-

Our car suddenly stops. Enough to make the two of us be surprised.

“Hey what the hell?”

She asked with a frown on her face. And there a blinding light came from someone’s flashlight outside. It was pointed directly at the two of us.

“Who are they?”

And before I even know it, my mind went black.

“Lea?? Lea!! Wake up!”

Shouting to my ears, that very voice I always hear in my dream… once again… it was calling my name.

“Lea??”

As soon as I open my eyes, there I saw Aiden. Looking at me. But compared to my dreams, his face… was a bit different. It isn’t that poker face of frowning face I always had in my mind.

Maybe this dream is different…

‘Aiden?’

I called his name. but something was different. Words doesn’t seem to go out of my mouth. I am… resting in his arms?

“This isn’t funny at all Luther! I hate you! I fucking hate you!!”

There is also a voice speaking somewhere… is it… sylphia?

Wait, as I remember, I am on my way back with Sylphia… and then there was a flashlight and…

What happened again?

Shaking my head, I can feel how my body rises. Someone is carrying me. Wait, why is he carrying me? I should ask Aiden to bring me down right now.

“Is there a hospital somewhere nearby?”

I could hear his worried voice but even some other voice was so clear on my ears.

is it not a dream after all?

“Bro chill, it isn’t that much, they just fall asleep for minutes”

For some reason, the grip started to feel tighter. And with my vision being fully well, not a bit blurry than it was a while ago, I saw two people arguing. With me between them.

“You rascal, I don’t care what you are up to just leave her alone! To think I would be friends with someone that would harm Lea… fuck. This isn’t a good time for us to meet and you even drag me into this mess-”

“Aiden?”

Just, what is going on? Somehow… I still feel a bit dizzy.

“Lea? You are awake”

A sudden change on his face. It was so quick that I am not sure if I am just dreaming or what. but somehow… his face seems to have a smile. Why does he look as if he was glad to see me awake?

“See? She is awake already, don’t be mad. It was just a joke”

And again with his glare, he look at that man. As if he would kill him anytime soon.

“Luther… a joke? Really? Then it isn’t any bit funny at all”

Leaving as he walks away, I can see how Sylphia punches that man called Luther. That name does sounds familiar… isn’t he Sylphia’s fiance? Ah, so this is…

“Are you alright? Do you feel sick or something?”

Walking out of that large hut, I can feel how the breeze started to touch my skin. Even the sky above was so wide and shining. The stars are glimmering so bright. But compared to them, Aiden’s eyes are much brighter.

“I am.. fine”

What is this? Why do I feel weird? Maybe it is because its been so long since the two of us meet? Right… maybe it was because of that. But.. for some reason… even if I know that this isn’t right… even if I know that it is wrong for me to do this when he have someone else… why can’t I say for my self that I want him to put me down?

“That is good to hear… the room given to you is not far. I am sorry you have to face such even after coming back. If only I knew, I may have stopped him in bringing you to this”

He was letting out a deep sigh. But him walking with me on his arms, is he really calm? Is it his heart or mine that was beating so loud?This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

“He is Sylphia’s fiance, isn’t he? Maybe my timing is just wrong and he didn’t mean to do that”

Shaking his head, I can feel how he let out a deep sigh. Just as i thought, he is still mad about what happened.

“You are still the same kind Lea after years…”

Shaking my head, if only he knew how greedy I am right now.

“I am not… that kind of Lea at all”

He stop on his walk as he look at the sky.

“A falling star…”

“Shall we make a wish?”

I slightly giggle… Is it not just a myth to wish for the stars? But…. if it is true… may I wish for one thing?

‘I wish this time would last forever’ ‘I wish this time would last forever’
