Fight
I retorted, "fight?" "Why is she so enraged? Did you hurt her? Remember, Derek, that I am still alive, "he said. "So, what exactly are you saying? "Please don't mix me up with you," I said aggressively.
"That's why I'm keen to know as to why she's furious," he said. "It was, in fact, a misunderstanding. One of my friends approached me and tried to seduce me, and Elena came to be around at the moment ", Derek explained.
"Then why did you make an agreement with women?" Paul asked. "If Elena doesn't like this, then everything will be canceled," he added. "You don't have to say it to me, Paul. I know exactly what I need to do. She is currently in perfect health. Don't bring it up again, "I said.
"If she's pleased, I'm happy as well. But if you hurt her, Derek, I swear I'll face her without hesitation. "He said.
I said, "Don't you ever think about it!" "Don't put her in a dilemma again, Paul," I urged.
Paul was silent for a moment before asking, "What is her name?"
I replied, "It's Lina."
"Hey, are you worried that one day I'll take them away from you?" he asked abruptly.
I came to a halt and closed my eyes for a few moments. Yes, it is right. I'm frightened I'll lose her. I'm afraid of losing my child. I can't imagine my life without them.
"Calm down, Derek," Paul urged.
"I won't come," he said, "but if you hurt her, I won't think twice."
Paul has now placed me in a difficult situation. I can't sleep at night thinking about him, and I'm terrified Elena knows about him. She'll get it wrong. She'll think I'm the one who didn't tell her that Paul is still alive.
"Paul, Pavlina is well aware that I am her father. Do you have any idea how much it will bother her if she finds that I am not her biological father? ", I said.
"I'm familiar with it, Derek. Don't even consider it. I have a lot of expertise on this topic. How can I allow this to happen to my daughter? ", he stated.
"Don't do anything that may hurt Pavlina and Elena, Derek. I will never come into your life as long as you love them ", he said.
"I'm putting down the phone. And because you are also her father, allow me to love her from afar. "He hung up the phone after saying this.
Paul puts down the phone. I know you won't, but what if she finds out? Because the truth will show through one day. We don't have the power to stop it.
The opposing viewpoint.
"I know he's married, Dad. But I also can't live without him. I took care of everything for him. I completed my graduation from abroad, and I prepared myself well for him, "Lina stated. "He never pledged to marry you or proposed to you, honey. You were merely his buddy, "stated Mr. Charles.
"So, what's the deal, dad? Did you ever try to catch a glimpse of his wife? Is she qualified to walk next to him in any way? ", Lina shouted.
"Don't do anything in anger, Lina," Charles warned. Moreover, he stated. "His rage is well-known to you. When he chose her, he might consider something."
Lina paused for a while to listen to her father. What about my efforts? I put forth a lot of effort to keep myself fully updated. She is not as excellent as I am. I can't stand her next to him. Lina said, "Dad, am I not worthy of him?"
"Lina, if you try to break up their relationship, I will not support you. What about the value? There are a lot of boys that are really interested in marrying you. Derek isn't one of the most attractive men on earth, "said he.
Charles took her hand in his and said, "You make yourself wonderful, sweetie. You don't need Derek by your side. You're free to do anything you want without him. How can you love him if he doesn't love you back? ", he continued.
Lina remained silent. "All right, dad," she said as she headed to her room. I can't stand her next to him. But, for the sake of my love, I must take the risk. How could I have let her win so easily? I heard that the girl married him because Derek trapped her father. But if I can convince her that Derek married her because of her wealth, I won't have to get my hands filthy.
But why should she trust me? Derek has a lot of assets. What will he do with her teeny-tiny property? No, no, this isn't going to work.
I'll have to come up with something different.
