Chapter 62
Eve’s POV
” I need to start a life afresh, I’ld come back new. I already told my P. A to book a flight and get my versa. I’m travelling. I’m leaving this country for the benefit of everyone” He told us then continue..
“I would leave my companies to your care Liam, Mark can work under the company if he wants; Eve too.. and even Helen and Robert… probably when they are done with college. Liam I’m sorry I didn’t bother about you since you were little even up to the time you graduated. I have failed as good father” He said.
“Father, no don’t repeat that” Mark said.
” I owe you all alot yet I do not feel like I have done enough to show how sorry I am or to cover up my mistakes” He spoke slowly and looked at me.
“Eve, request anything at all from me. I would grant them all, I honestly promise” Mr Maya said.
I nodded slowly.
“I.. I contacted your father and wanted to make things up, I’m glad he has recovered, yet I wish to refund the settled bills” He added..
“I.. I was the one who settled the bills” Liam responded.
“Oh, so where do I start from?” He hit his head. “And I should have done this from the onset instead of trying to take advantage of you and offering you a job at my company.. because I wanted you to give your all in all to me.. how else can I make it up to you? How about you complete your education in one of the best college under my sponsor and return to manage one of my companies? Jeez monetery and material things can’t heal the wound” He said still hitting head, really hard. Mark held his hand to stop him from doing so.
While Helen and I stood right there, speechlessly.
“Uhm, you don’t really have to do this. Eve has forgiven you. She only wanted freedom from you.. which she has gotten and About her education, I’m willing to take care of it too” Liam spoke and Mr Maya looked at him.. and asked;
“You.. don’t want me to fix things myself or make it up to her?” Mr Maya asked.
“Of course.. I.. I do” Liam responded.
“He probably made the suggestion of sponsoring Eve already before you” Mark added.
“Okay” He nodded continuously.
“Liam, I already had a heart to heart discussion with Mark.”
“Yeah I know but not just him, I have forgiven you from the very depth of my heart. I have forgiven you for everything” Liam said.
“You already did? Oh how bad of me, I didn’t even come through for you when you were ill”
“When Clara left him” Helen mumbled.
“Dad, just forget about those things. We understand.. you are very sorry for being non challant.. stop rejecting anything. They are now bygones Stop mentioning it. It’s Okay” Liam told him.
“I wish we could fix our father to son bond again instead of travelling” Mark said.
“Sure, we will.. over the phone, on air, via email.. I only need some time to clear my head off” Mr Maya said again.
“We understand” Liam said then he stared at me.. he gestured at me if we should let the cat out of the bag now and I nodded slowly.
“Daddy?” He resumed.. and Mr Maya turned to him.
“Before you leave, I have something to let you know” Liam said, I trembled a little as my heart beat faster.
Before Liam could speak.., Mark did.. to back him up.
“Good you couldn’t have your way on Eve” Mark said.
“I’m apologizing for the molestation. I am sorry” He apologised again.
“Yeah, you are sorry. Just so you know Eve moved on with someone else, even when she was stucked with you, even between all molestation she got from you” Helen said.
Mr Maya kept mute for a moment as he looked at me.
“I’m glad she did, I’m absolutely no good for her. Every other girl would do the exact same thing. I’m sorry for wanting you to get stucked in my home forever when there’s a better serious person that wants you” He kept on apologizing.
“Father” Liam spoke softly.. “What about me? I moved on too”
Mr Maya spoke softly; “I’m glad you did, don’t be like me.. do not..”
“I moved on with Eve” Liam added.
“Moved on? Yeah I’m aware that she moved into your place, simply because we are now seperated and to avoid more molestation.. whereas I am no longer like that” He said.. “I am s…” Always adding an apology to the end of every sentence he makes.
“No.. I mean yeah” Liam held my hand, so that his father could see us together;
“Daddy, Eve and I are..”
“They are a thing and they’ve been dating under your nose. Bless their relationship” Helen said, straight forward.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“That… that right. Eve and I worked together and.. and we uhm … had things in common.. I couldn’t bear the fact the she was with you.. she was never safe in your hands, the sexual molestation… the..”
Mr Maya fell on his kneels and bursted into tears again..
“I’m sorry Liam .. Eve I am very sorry”
“I am very sorry”
Sorry?
