Chapter 48 Funeral 2

 They ate happily that morning, both kissed her goodbye and her chauffeur drove her to school. That day felt strange but she ignored the signs and went on with her day. She revealed the big news to Claire and they both jumped giggling happily. This was her biggest wish, having a little sibling to take care of.

Mid day, her butler 'Prescott' arrived in school with a grave face. He came to fulfil his masters last wish before leaving. The shocking news drove Elsa crazy, it was like a dream to her as she cried her eyes out. It was reported that someone planted a bomb in  Lou's car and it exploded on her way to the hospital. There was no trace of her body or the chauffeur's anywhere.

She was yet to digest the news of her mother's death when she heared her dad was arrested for fraud on the same day and that he was going to spend a long time in prison. She was not allowed to see him cause George and Florence said she was under age.

She had hoped that one day she'd see her dad again even if it takes a long time, but before she could even see him, Liam said he was dead and his funeral was the next day. How was she supposed to be happy, when she lost her both parents in a day.

Elsa got out of the car when they arrived at home, not realizing she has been crying for some time. "El are you okay!" Jesse asked worriedly. "I'll be in my room!" Was her short reply as she walked into the elevator quickly so no one would see her cry. She got to the last floor, her heart was heavy and all she wanted to do was lay on her bed and cry her hearts out.

She opened the door hurriedly using the back of her hands to wipe the tears falling from her eyes. She walked quickly through the lounge when she bumped into something hard. Liam quickly held her waist stopping her from falling "Are you alright?" He asked to see the heavy tears running down her eyes.

His heart shattered, this was the last thing he wanted to see today. He had not seen her earlier when he got back, Wadsworth told him she went out to have fun with his step siblings and he was happy she was not sad. But seeing her now "Please don't tell me to stop crying, it hurts so much!" She pleaded.

Liam looked at her.....................

"Come here!" He pulled her to himself and hugged her tightly. "Let it all out, don't leave anything in!" He said. Her grip on him was tight as her subs became louder and she cried in his arms to her satisfaction.

Liam did not need to call Greg for help this time, his actions came from within, and he was impressed with himself. He felt like he had worn a trophy. The most priceless and precious one. Of all his achievements in life, he felt they were nothing compared to this one.
