"What do you mean?" Gina asked him. Alistair just smiled and shrugged his shoulder. "I mean I know that you don't feel better a while ago. May I know why?" he asked her. Gina just swallowed hard and quickly looked away. She doesn't want to tell him either about it. "Nah, it's nothing. I was just really tired." she smiled. "Okay, by the way, where have you been a while back?" he asked. Even though he knew she went out with Tristan, he just wanted to test her honesty with him. "I went to see a friend." she said. He just nodded. "A friend? Do I know him?" he asked. Gina just shakes her head. "No, you don't know him yet." she mumbled. "Why don't you make me meet your friend then?" he asked her. Gina can sense that he must know something making her just to scoff and shake her head. "My friend is so busy as well. We just went out for a meal and a walk. Nothing more." she said. Alistair just took a deep breath and nodded. Looks like it was hard for her to say who is her friend.
They woke up without talking. Gina never talked about it with him again. AListair wants to start a conversation with her, but she ignores him. "Good morning, how's your sleep, my children?" Olga asked them. They just smiled at her and both greeted her, but she noticed that something was wrong. Alis and Gina weren't talking making her to look at them curiously. "Wait, is there something wrong?" she asked. Gina and Alis just looked at each other and shook their heads. Looks like they don't want to tell their mom about their argument last night. But Olga scoffed, she didn't believe them. "You can tell me about it." Olga said. "It's nothing, mom." Alis said. Gina just agreed and started eating her breakfast, but when Gina needed to go to the bathroom to pee. Olga asked her son about it. Alis told her about it making her shocked. "Don't you think she knows?" she asked him. Alis shrugged his shoulder. "I am not sure, mom. But I think she is closer enough to find out the truth." he
"Gina, I just want to clear things up. I don't want us to be like this forever." he said. Gina just shook her head and sighed. "What makes you think this would take forever if you are not going to tell me the truth?" she asked him. Alis just sighed. He needs to be calm because he is driving. He doesn't want to lose control right now. "Even though I am going to tell you right now, you are not going to understand it." he sighed. Gina just groaned and looked at him. "Then make me understand about it." she answered. Alistair chooses to be silent for now because he doesn't want to argue with her again. As they arrived at the mall, Gina left the car quickly. Alis just chased her. "We need to do something right now. If you want to talk to me, we'll talk after buying everything on the list." she said. Alis just nodded. But while they are looking for the items on the list in the hardware store, Ali's phone keeps on ringing. Gina was already irritated because he wasn't answering the cal
"Are you sure you're really okay?" Tristan asked her.After she argued with Alis, she can't help but cry and call Tristant. Tristan is the only friend she ever had right now. She wiped her tears and smiled at him. Tristan just sighed and gave his handkerchief. Gina can't help but chuckle a bit."Thank you." she said and wiped her tears.Tristan can feel that she's really sad."So, what happened? Is it your husband?" he asked.She just nodded which made him scoffed."Tsk, he's wasting your time. Why is he making such a pretty lady sad like this?" he groaned.Gina finds that honest."I don't know. It's just his family." she sighed."Why? they don't like you?" he asked.Gina hurriedly shakes her head."No! they all loved me. They just have some things about their family background. They need to do something." she said.She doesn't know if it's okay for her to speak about it, but she also knows that it's Alis's family's privacy after all."What do you mean?" he asked."Nothing." she said.
"Thank you, Tristan." Gina genuinely smiled.Tristan just nodded and smiled at her. It was already dark when he drove her to the mansion. By the window, Alistair is sipping his wine watching them. He wanted to go out and confront both of them, but decided to stay inside."You know you are always welcome. Can you not just please cry next time? I just hate seeing women cry." he scoffed.Gina just chuckled and groaned."I'll try. Be safe." she said.Gina watched him left and went inside. She was surprised when Alis's angry face welcomed her. Gina was still upset and didn't dare talk to him."Where have you been with him?" he asked.Gina stopped walking and sighed."He treated me to dinner and ice cream. Is that all right?" she asked.Alistair scoffed and shrugged his shoulder."Do you know what are you doing?" he asked."What am I doing then? It's not bad. He's my friend and he's the only one I have. He always comforts me every time you hurt my feelings." Gina said.Alistair felt pained
She can't help but sob in silence. She also knows that he knows that she must be crying right now, but he just can't comfort her right now. "I am really sorry, Gina. I didn't mean this to happen." he sighed. Olga was outside waiting for him. She wants to make sure that Gina was unharmed. "Alis, what happened to her?" she asked him worriedly. Alis just took a deep breath and sighed. It's all my fault, mom. I know it was my fault. I thought we are already settled by staying in here, but looks like I was wrong." he sadly sighed. Olga can't feel anything but is also very sad about them. They shouldn't be enjoying their marriage and not like this. "I am really sorry, son. We should have told Gina earlier, now that she knows about it, what can we do?" she sighed sadly. Alis shrugged his shoulder as well. He doesn't know what to do as well. "I don't know, mom. Gina was very hurt and I know that. We are the only ones she has right now." he mumbled. Olga just took a deep breath and sig
"Gina..." Bianca called her name. But Gina remained and pretended she didn't hear Bianca. She just felt not talking to her, thinking that she betrayed her. Bianca took a deep breath. "Can I talk to you for a while?" Bianca asked. Gina continued watering the plants and even pretended that she didn't see her. "Gina, I know you can hear me. I know you hate me, but don't think it is worse. Like him, I am also against the wedding." Bianca said. She was trying to talk to her, but she keeps on snubbing her. Gina just doesn't want to be betrayed again. "Bianca." Olga came. Olga saw from afar that Gina doesn't want to talk to her. "Aunt." Bianca sadly said. Olga just smiled and went toward her. "Gina really doesn't want to talk to anyone right now." she said. "I know that, aunt. I just want her to hear me, but seems like she's not really interested." Bianca sighed and looked at Gina. Olga as well sighed deeply. "She's been like this for the past few days. She never talked to us ev
Gina looked at Olga curiously. She knows that something is going on inside her mind right now. "S-ure, who is it?" she asked her mom. Olga just took a deep breath and sighed. She doesn't know which friend she is going to let her meet as her proxy later on. "J-ust a friend of mine. I'll tell you the details later on. Are you free to go?" she asked her. Gina just nodded and smiled at her mom-in-law. She has no choice but to agree with her. But she merely knows that something is going on. She can feel that they just wanted her to go away for now. "Is everything settled already in between you and Gina?" Alis asked his mom. Gina just nodded and deeply sighed. "Yeah, and I feel very bad about her. Lying to her makes me feel sad and angry at myself. We shouldn't be lying to her. I just can't help looking away every time I lie to her." Olga closed her eyes. They just need to because Evan, Bianca's dad is coming over and Gina needs to be out of the house for a while while he's in the ma
