Runaway Bride

Chapter-68

I noticed the route is unfamiliar, I did notice it like 30 minutes earlier, but I thought it was just another way to the palace.... but it is not...

I turned to him as I asked, "Where are we going?" As if I ordered him.

Riccardo declared, "Home."

I was looking at the mansion with mouth wide open, we are going to live here from now on?

Why?

What happened to our palace?

I mean, this palace is gorgeous, has a modern appearance, a huge garden filled with trees and bushes, lots of flowers too. I like the dark color on the outer walls, I walked in behind him, and the interior is all black and shades of black... I love it somehow.

but why we changed the palace?

Isn't this too serious to raise kids?

I heard him calling the maids, He said, "Take Cherish to her room, I will back in the evening...."

He turns to me, then walks out....

Seriously?

Past midnight,

I was sleeping on the bed, even though I was tired, sleep is really hard at this time, I mean, I can't find a comfortable position, the belly is bothering me so much.

I tried to sit up, but it took a lot out of me, I don't know how am I going to survive for the future few months. These kids are not going to make this easy for me.

I will just stare at my phone because sleeping is not an option right now.

Where is he? Riccardo is not back yet. Where is it meant?

And what has that attitude to do with me?

As if I was summoning him, he walked in through the door, he threw his jacket on the chair as he was scolding someone, He said on the phone, "You all are trying to get on my nerves!!.... shut your mouth and do as I say!!"

He ended the call as he said, "F*cking idiots!"

He looked at me, and I could tell he forgot I was here. He looked away, composing himself. I turned my attention to my phone, trying to find something suitable to distract myself.

Riccardo asked, "You are up this late..."As if he was enquiring.

I sat their ignoring him, He soon got frustrated, he asked, " I asked something...." it felt like an order.

I looked up at him, not fearing him. I am not scared of him. No matter what others think of him, I am not scared of him one bit!

He took steps to me, he got closer, his eyes were on me as if he was questioning my courage.

Riccardo grabbed my face in his hand. He said, "When I ask something, you learn to answer.... I am at the end of my patience right now...."

I smirked, I said, "You think you own me?"

He asked instead, "Why are you awake at this hour? Do you know what effect it puts on the babies?" He scolded me.

I glared at him, I said, "Then scold them, since I am awake because of them... You think I am waiting for you to return like a poor dear wife?" I taunted.

I pulled the comforter to cover my belly. Riccardo just stared at me. He didn't have a comeback.

He sat near my feet, He asked, "What's wrong?" It still sounded like an order.

I asked, "You don't care.... just mind your business, Riccardo..."

He warned, "Cherish!"

I said, "You won't understand.." I angered him more. He looked so pissed. But I didn't lie. He won't understand why I am awake, neither do I.

He tried to move, but his knee got rubbed against my feet, I hissed, then glared at him, it hurts. They are already swollen, and this man has no gentleness!

I said as I moved my feet from him, "Don't touch..."

He looked at me, inspecting my behavior. He grabbed my feet out of a sudden, and I yelped. He applied some pressure on them, as if he was seeing my reaction.

I screamed at him, "Riccardo!!! It hurts!! You Animal!!!"

He stopped still looking at me, then his moments changed, and he applied some pressure soothing the foot. It hurts a little, but the massage feels like heaven.

I threw my head back as if it was melting me. I didn't know something like this could give me so much satisfaction.

Soon, I met his face again. He was helping my feet, massaging it with both hands.

I know, I am angry, but he keeps doing stuff like this. I can't help it. I am already thinking he got more handsome or they are just the hormones.

I kept my eyes on him, he whispered, "Better...." He looked at me from the corner of his eyes, I just tried to concentrate on the phone.

I am hurt, I a simple foot massage cannot buy me....even if it feels so nice.

After a few wide minutes, I pulled my leg off him, I said, "Enough... I don't need your help..."

He whispered, "If you knew to use your brain as much as you use your mouth, things would be much easier...." He taunted me.

I said back, "What..."

He said, folding his sleeves, "You could have called your maids if you didn't need my help.... You think being pregnant is a piece of cake..."

He sounded so rude, I scoffed, I said back, "Who's fault is that I am pregnant?.... If you were careful enough... then.."

My words stopped, He turned me as he said back, "Then you should have reminded me that.... what were you lost in? Wife?" My cheeks turned red.

What kind of shameless man is he~!!!!

He touched my belly as he said, "Try to think good when you are carrying them.... your bitterness affects them too..."

I looked down, I pushed his hand off my belly, I said, "Don't touch my kids like that !!! I warn you!!!"

He said, getting really angry, "I warn you!! Don't try to act like they only belong to you!...."

I kept glaring at him, I was furious, actually.

He said, "I am their father!!!.... I lost a lot because of you! I am not losing anymore of it!!!"

I screamed back, "You are staying it's my fault!!! It was you who was greedy all the time!!! You didn't choose us!!!... You didn't give me a choice!!"

He said back, pointing his finger at me, "I?.... What happened before that!!! You knew you were pregnant!! You planned it to hide it!!! and then act like the entire thing is my fault!!!..... It was me who didn't have a choice!!"

I was in tears, and I felt unsafe!! They tried to kill me!!!

I am glad I never told anyone, or they would have killed us, three of us!!

I said, getting up the bed, "I can't share a room with you!!"

He warned me, grabbed my arm, "I warn you!.. I warn you, Wife... You don't want to see what I can do?"

He said to me, giving a clear threat, "I can do anything to keep you here..... Anything..."

I whispered, "I know... You Monster... I know it.... I know what you did, you think I won't know... You imprisoned my brother to my friends!!!"

I screamed at him, "You think I will forgive you!!!"
