Chapter 122: Getting No Help
"I think we should talk about it with your father. He should hear it from us. Let’s visit them...After dinner..." Rory said after a short pause. "Let them have their dinner in peace."
Liam sighed. Of course, she will be worried about everyone. That’s what she does. She cares for everyone who loves her. And that is why he loves her. She could do that so easily while it is hard for him.
And he thought she was right. Sparing other issues, he should talk to his father about this. He had a feeling that his father wouldn’t care about anything else and would ask him to do whatever to save himself from prison.
Prison... If he is "proved" as a serial killer, he might even get the death penalty if not, he would at least get life in prison with no possibility of parole.
He is starting his life right now. He has figured out what life is and what family is just now. It was late, but just when he imagined a happy family, he is facing this tribulation.
If the lawyer thinks they are going to arrest him for sure...
He shivered in fright. He did not want to lose it all.
"Rory," Liam held her hand. "Why don’t you stay in your homeland for a while, huh? You can return after everything is settled. I promise I will make sure to put up a brave fight."
Rory smiled and kissed his hand. "I know you will fight, Fizzy. You must. But regarding my leaving, we have already talked about it and..." she stood up. "I’m not leaving you alone."
She walked to the kitchen counter to pick up her phone. Liam followed her with his eyes.
"They won’t leave you alone, Cherry. It would spoil your mood and..."
"I won’t burst off in front of the media and spoil your image or make everything complicated, Fizzy. If that’s what you mean. I know I might flare up easily, but I’ve learned the hard way to keep my emotions to myself. I’m still not better at it, but I will try my best."
