CHAPTER 36
IRIS LOU POV
I woke up because I felt heavy running down my two legs and like an arm wrapped around my waist. When I woke up, Eliot’s adonis -like face opened up to me while he was asleep, I could see the whole of his face because I was lying on my side. I’ll admit that I missed everything about him, I still love him no matter what my brain denies that he doesn’t love me, it’s like I’m still going back to being the former Iris that the world just revolves around for the man she wants until now.
I slowly removed his hand from my waist as well as his heavy leg that ran over me before I stood up slowly, I felt the pain of my private part, because he did not stop yesterday, I looked at the time on the side table and its already six o’clock in the morning, I didn’t have a blanket to get up before walking slowly to the bathroom before taking a shower even though I knew the water was too cold but I couldn’t do anything because of the viscosity of the crib.
It wasn’t long before I was finished and came out wearing a white bathrobe. He still sleeping soundly and now I just remembered that Analine, the woman he had chosen for a long time, was here in this house, I was just shaken because of the lightness that happened to the two of us. I just walked over to my walk in closet and grabbed a pajama and white t-shirt. I wore underwear first before wearing the pajamas and T-shirt. I went out of the walk in closet and combed my hair with my hand before leaving the room, while I was walking it was very quiet because it was still early, I went down the stairs until I reached the bottom and went to the kitchen, but I caught up. the maids who are already serving.
“Good morning ma’am.” They said at the same time that when they saw me at the kitchen door, I just nodded at them before turning around and thinking if I could just walk outside even if I was just wearing a sleepers.
When I got out of their main door I just walked straight with my two hands behind my back and folded for my old walker, I looked around there weren’t many people even though I was already outside the Hamilton’s Fam subdivision.
I didn’t know that as I was walking I stumbled upon a it’s a bit dark but I’m not afraid to walk it until I reach a tree that is very nice to look at, because of its lights and the heart -shaped lights hanging on the tree branches, it’s very nice to look at so it’s dark in that part this is because the place is hidden and others seem afraid to enter it.
I walked around the tree while looking up at the heart -shaped lights, I just smiled because of this feeling, I wondered if I would continue to take revenge or to go back to greece and be Cleopard’s wife and live quietly.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
I’m too tired, Cleopard was right when he said that the life lost can’t be restored, no matter what revenge I do, my deceased son will never rise from the pit, I know Eliot is also a family man, he already has Analine and Anastasia and I know how painful it is to ruin the family, I don’t want their daughter Anastasia to hate me.
I didn’t realize that my tears were already dripping as I looked up at the tree, I just smiled and decided to come back in greece, and live quietly. My love is Eliot I will just bury in oblivion, because I know that no matter what I do I will still be defeated in the end, I do not want to hurt my heart again that long crushed.
I also think to appreciate the love that cleopard gives me, I know, in the end cleopard will still be my end. I wiped the tears from my eyes before thinking of leaving this place, when I got out of that dark place I thought of not going back to the Hamilton mansion and just going back to the orphanage.
I was on the side of the road and just waited for a taxi even though I knew I wasn’t carrying anything but I would just pay there when I arrived at the orphanage. Eventually there was taxi passed so I drove to the orphanage. When I arrived in front of the orphanage I spoke.
“Sir, please just wait for the payment I’ll just take it inside.” I said calmly to the old driver, he smiled before nodding. I opened the door of the taxi before exiting and walked to the door of the petals orphanage, I didn’t ring the doorbell or anything because I opened the main door myself.
When I entered I heard laughter and talking I knew the noise in the kitchen looked like the children were having breakfast. I just went upstairs and entered my room before taking my wallet from the drawer and taking a thousand there before going down again and going out to the orphanage to give my payment to the driver.
“This is my payment, keep the change.” I said smiling.
“Thank you very much hija.” He replied that I just nodded and waited for his car to leave before going inside again and I went to the kitchen. When I got to the kitchen they all turned to look at me, and they spoke at the same time.
“Good morning!”
“Good morning beautiful!”
“Good morning mom!” Bea also said so I smiled at them before coming to the table and speaking.
“Good morning to you all, what’s your dish?” I said smiling and looked at the food placed on the table. I found a hotdog, omelette and bacon.
“Don’t answer, I know hahaha.” Laughing, I said before pulling up a chair and sitting down there was also an extra plate so that’s all I took and put what I was going to eat. As I was eating I thought of saying goodbye to them all.
“Ahem.” I tasted before lowering the spoon and crossed my two hands so I get their attention, but they were still eating.
“Hmm, I’m leaving ….” When I said that, there was a sudden silence, even bea looked at me in surprise but I just smiled at her.
“And bea, you will be the caretaker of this orphanage and you will be responsible for the children here in this orphanage.” I said calmly.
“I will come back later to Greece, to fix something that will make me live in peace, and I will come back and come back here to visit you. Don’t worry, I will still support you until you all finish your studies. I hope all of you won’t disappoint me. ” I told them with a smile and they nodded at the same time. Bea’s tears didn’t escape my eyes and she suddenly got up and left the kitchen, I just gasped or because she knew it would be difficult for her to accept my sudden departure again.
“I’ll take care of your sister. Go ahead and just keep eating.” I told the kids before getting up to follow bea, when I got out of the kitchen I went upstairs because I knew she was in her room. When I got to the opposite side of her room I knocked because I knew it was locked.
“Bea, open the door for me.” I said calmly, I knew she could hear me. but I received not a single answer from her.
“Bea … Please understand my decision….” I said and I felt the door slowly open so I entered quietly and I saw her on the side of the bed and looking out the window. I could see how her tears were dripping. I approached her before sitting down next to her.
“Bea….. I know it’s hard to leave you again but I know you’re big and you know what you have to do first, I’ll be back again and when I come back I’ll take you and this orphanage will be held by someone else. “I explain.
“Why don’t you just take me …. you said when you came back you would take me…..”She cried.
“Hmmm…. okay if that’s what you want I’ll just take you and I’ll just call dexter to find someone to look after the kids here.” When I said that, she suddenly became excited and gave me a hug. I just smiled because of the change in her expression.
