Love You Can’t Say

If Dennis really loved the baby, I could totally keep it. As for Olivia, I had put up with her for two years and pulled through, how bad would my life be when I had the support from my own baby? Furthermore, my suffering meant nothing against the baby growing up without its father.

However, as an old saying goes, where there is oppression, there is resistance.

Over the next few days, it had rained so heavily. Each year during the rain season, some parts of Newton Town would be submerged by flood. Therefore, the employees of the George Group might leave work early during this period.

I was aware that Dennis wouldn’t leave Olivia alone, who was afraid of thunder, and thus he wouldn’t go back to our house lately, so I had stayed in YT Apartment these days. At least, Diana was there for me.

Due to the Heroin incident, Diana didn’t go to the bar anymore, but stayed at home studying cooking. Meanwhile, I was living quite a good life on my own in the company of her.

The only thing was that one’s mental state would change once he figured something out. In my case, I no longer expected Dennis to visit me, and I always sat there alone in a trance.

However, I felt extremely sorry for myself when I had been by myself for too long. Mario had given me many supplements and urged me to take them, but I forgot about it all the time. Fortunately, Diana was always there to remind me.

The heavy rain had lasted for a week. Finally, the rain stopped and it was sunny in Newton Town.

The audit work of the George Group had stepped in the right direction, while I was busy with HY Technology’s business. Diana told me she would go traveling for a few days to relax herself.

I knew something was on her mind. If Mr. Bates hadn’t stepped in, Diana would have had to spend a dozen years in prison due to the Heroin incident.

She was filled with resentment, but could never vent it. Even if she knew Olivia was behind all this, she could do nothing about it, as long as Dennis was still her backer. Therefore, I could totally understand why the depressed Diana wanted to go on a trip.

Since Diana wasn’t home, I wouldn’t stay in YT Apartment either, so I could only go back to the house, and I wouldn’t feel too lonely because, at least, Nanny Daisy was there.

After a busy day of work, I drove back to the house, but unexpectedly, I happened to see Olivia at the gate.

Dressed in an exquisite blue long dress, Olivia was standing by Dennis’ black jeep. Tiny but slender, she was pretty as a picture against the setting sun.

“It looks amazing!” I couldn’t help but exclaim.

However, somewhere in my heart began to crack at this point, and soon it became a huge bloody hole filled with rage, depression and hatred.

I should have slowed down, but on the contrary, I slammed on the gas instead and rushed towards Olivia. Everything happened in just a few seconds, but the most hideous side of me had fully shown on me.

This was what I was thinking. As long as Olivia died, I wouldn’t suffer anymore. I wouldn’t have to worry when Dennis would come back, or leave unexpectedly.

The moment the car rushed towards her, I really wanted her killed.

However, Dennis popped up and jumped in front of Olivia, his face stern.

I jammed on the brakes, my mind in a turmoil. At this moment, I was astonished to find that I actually wanted Olivia killed just now…

After a moment, Dennis dragged me down the car and scowled at me. “What are you doing, Clara?”

I collapsed uncontrollably, but he was quick enough to catch me.

Finally, I looked up at him, my eyes full of tears. “Dennis, ask her to leave, will you?”

Grabbing his icy hands, I choked out, “Dennis, I love you more than you could ever imagine. Don’t push me. I don’t want to see her in our house again. I really would kill her.”

At this point, I didn’t want to hold myself back anymore. I would show Dennis what I was thinking without reservation, including my sinister side and my selfishness. I showed him all.

We looked into each other’s eyes. Dennis puckered his lips, his arm around my waist softening unconsciously. He reached out, cupped my face and came so close to me that we were almost nose to nose. As usual, I was greeted with his powerful aura as he spoke in a husky whisper, “Silly!”

He scooped me up and told Nanny Daisy, who rushed out in haste, “Get a taxi for Miss Pearson!”

Nanny Daisy nodded immediately.

Still suffering from the shock, Olivia recovered herself and stared at Dennis and me, her face pale. Finally, her gaze fell upon Dennis, and she grumbled with an injured tone, “Dennis…”

“Go back now!” Dennis said and carried me back to the house.

Nanny Daisy’s faint voice came from behind us. “Miss Pearson, here comes the taxi. Please get in!”

Dennis put me down on the bed in the bedroom, his dark eyes fixed on me. After a long while, he leaned over to me and pecked me on my cheek. “Don’t act on impulse again. Otherwise…”

He didn’t finish his sentence, but bit me on the shoulder. It hurt a bit, but I remained silent, frowning.

Dennis’ phone rang as he tucked me in. His phone was put on the nightstand, which was so close to me, and I saw the caller ID was Olivia at a glance.

Dennis darted a glance at his phone but didn’t answer it.

After that, Olivia called him again and again. Realizing that Dennis wouldn’t answer her calls, she started to send text messages.

I caught a glimpse of one of them. “Dennis, don’t leave me alone. I already lost my brother, and now, all I have is you.”Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

I wanted to laugh, but tears kept welling up in my eyes and stopped me from laughing.

Dennis also saw the text message. He didn’t reply to it, but lit a cigarette and puffed it sitting on the balcony, his back lonely and desolate.

Terrified, I fell asleep before long.

I was woken up by the thunder again. I thought it wouldn’t rain anymore, but a thunderstorm still came at midnight.

Diana was always by my side before, so I thought I could handle such a stormy night alone. However, it was empty in the bedroom now. The thunder crashed and its lightning passed through the windows, lighting up the whole room.

I turned on the light and looked around. Dennis was nowhere to be seen. There were many cigarette butts on the floor of the balcony, and presumably, he had smoked a lot.

I didn’t see anyone, so I walked out of the bedroom barefoot. He might be in the study.

However, he was not there either, so I went to the living room downstairs.

Soaked to the skin, Olivia stared stubbornly at Dennis, who was a good head taller than her, her eyes red.

“Go back!” Dennis said helplessly.

“No!” Olivia gave an innocent but sad smile. “You know me. I’m afraid of thunder.”

Now that she was completely wet, Olivia appeared even more tiny and fragile, her hair disheveled.

After a long time, Dennis seemed to compromise and said, “Go take a shower first!”
