Chapter 67: One Body
Leander was surprised by her unfocused eyes. Her eyes were shifting from side to side and perspiration formed on her forehead.
"Are you okay, Minnie?" he asked.
There was no response from her. And then she asked if he remembers her. He didn’t know what she meant by that. Maybe she wants to remind him that she is the one who hurt his brother.
It is ironic that he is married to her and now he is going to become one with her. And his grandfather wants him to make heirs with her. But she wants the Kastello family to burn without heirs.
But it doesn’t matter.
"Minnie, look at me..." he held her cheeks. "You are my wife," he said.
Nothing is going as he pleases. If she is going to act this way for a long, he didn’t know what to do. He won’t force her. He can’t hurt her.
He’d gladly be a fool in front of her than hurt her.
What will he tell his family? They are not going to take the ’she is sick’ excuse. They won’t care if she is sick. They want him to follow the tradition of the family.
Wife...
Viviana snapped out of her reverie hearing that. She cannot lose herself in the past like that. She almost revealed her past that she needed to forget. That part of her past should never be talked about by the Kastello family. The truth was so dangerous they had to fake her death. She cannot bring more danger to the people who helped her in the past.
Losing her rationality for a word of recognition from a Kastello is not worth it! She cannot be that desperate for recognition.
