Chapter 48
IT WAS two o’clock in the morning when Trinity regained consciousness. She was surprised when she saw who’s holding her hand. Seeing his face brought back the pain she felt last night. She pulled off her hand on Zach’s grip.
Zach then sat straight when he felt her move.
“You’re awake,” he said in a hoarse voice.
“No… you’re just dreaming,” she replied, sarcastically.
"Look, baby... that kid is not my son. Gail is just using the young boy to ruin us," he explained.
She averted her eyes. She doesn’t like the emotion she’s seeing in Zach’s eyes.
Zach grabbed her left hand but she just hid her hand at her back.
“I want to be alone. If… if you don’t mind,” she said in a low voice.
“I won’t leave you, not until you hear me out,” he pleaded.
“What else do I need to know?” she looked at him. “Does the truth I heard wasn’t enough?”
She wants to cry. She fucking wants to cry. But it seems like her eyes were tired of letting go of the tears.
