Kira tightened her grip, she is having second thoughts!
But there is a side of her mind saying to read the will.
Kira sighs!
Okay!
Just today!
I am just curious about how rich is my husband!
Kira picks up the envelope, she opened it and shoved her hand and pulled out the papers from the inside.
Kira started to read what is written to the papers, but her expression slowly changed!
Her face turned pale, her hands started to tremble, and her eyes seem like crying!
After a while, Kira shoved back the papers and put down the envelope to its original place.
Her breathing becomes faster as she tries to suppress her emotions and her entire body is trembling.
Kira stepped back and walks out of the study room.
She heads straight to the master's bedroom, her mind is in chaos!
'So, his reason for marrying her is his wealth?'
'Ha!" Kira let out a sarcastic laugh!
She suddenly remembers the day when she fights with Gaile.
'There she was, defending her title as Tims wife, claiming that she has Tim's heart!'
'What now, Kira?!'
'You're being too confident of your self!
'Do you think an influential man like Tim would seriously fall for a mere person like you?!'
Kira mocked her self.
Now, she finally understands why he forced her to marry him!
Kira felt like someone clutched her heart.
Her chest tightened and it's hard for her to breath!
Why is she feeling this way?
Why is she affected by this now?
'Come on Kira, you are well aware that this marriage doesn't involve emotion!'
'And what do you expect, Kira?'
'Perhaps, he likes you?'
Kira scolded her self.
But then the other side of her mind asks, ' Why he treat me so well, then?'
'He got even mad when he learns that Madame Gezel splashes her hot water!'
'He defended her against the accusations towards her.'
'And his sweet gestures, what's the meaning of his sweetness towards her?'
Wake up, Kira!
He just did those things because he needs something from you!
Of course!
He needs to be good to you because he needs to get his inheritance!
The other side of Kira's mind opposed.
That thought made Kira feel more pained and she couldn't help but cry but then she wiped her tears, and she tried to calm her self.
'It's alright Kira!'
'Don't cry!'
'It's better that you know about it before you could fall to Tim.'
'Oh, really Kira?'
'Why?'
'Have you not really fallen to him, yet?'
Kira froze...
Yeah, have I not yet fallen to Tim?
Why am I hurting when I learn about the truth?
Kira is so confused!
She doesn't know what to think anymore!
She feels like her head is going to burst!
She has another question in her mind.
Why would Tim's father wants to give her half of his inheritance, or just want her to be Tim's wife?
She doesn't even know him!
Kira is so confused right now!
------
Helena is in her bedroom when she heard a knock on the door.
"Come in," Helena said.
A few seconds later, the door opened and Kira came in.
"Hey, dear." Helena greeted, but she notices the loneliness in Kira's eyes.
"Why?" Helena asked.
Kira approached Helena to the bed.
(A/N: Helena is always wearing a kerchief on her head,)
"Auntie..." Kira forces her self to smile.
"Why you looked so lonely?" Helena asked worriedly.
"Oh, It's nothing!"
"I just..." Kira stared at Helena.
"I just missed you." She said and she seems like crying again.
Helena smiled at Kira. "Come!"
She gestured her to come over to her which Kira did.
She sits beside Helena.
Helena stroked Kira's back.
"You can talk to me if you want to." She said.
"I'll be alright auntie."
"Always remember that I am willing to endure everything for you," Kira said.
"Just get well, okay?" She added.
Helena took a deep breath, "Don't worry too much about me, dear."
"The doctor says that my body is giving a positive response to the chemotherapy, though I almost lost all my hair, at least I am getting better now."
"It's so good to hear that Auntie," Kira replied.
-----
Tim entered the room.
He found Kira sitting on the couch.
Tim smiled, he approached Kira and kissed her forehead.
"Good evening." He greeted her.
Kira smiled at Tim, "Good evening." She said plainly.
Tim notice Kira's strange behavior.
He looked at her with his knitted brows, " Are you alright?" He asked.
Kira stared at Tim.
'This man is such a great pretender!' She thought.
Kira tried to act natural, she doesn't want to show to Tim that she is upset!
She doesn't have the right to act that way because she knew from the very beginning that this marriage doesn't involve emotion and Tim doesn't give her sweet promises!
"Ennn..." Kira nodded.
'I just don't want to be so attached to you.' Kira secretly added.
"Have you eaten dinner?" Tim asked.
"Ennn..." Kira nodded again.
Tim stared at Kira, " Is there any problem?" he asked.
Kira shook her head slowly, " No, I think, I am just tired."
Tim sits beside Kira, "Oh!"
" Just wait here, I'll make you a glass of milk," Tim said but Kira is quick to reject it.
"No!" She objected.
Tim turned his head to Kira.
Kira realized her reaction, and she lowered her head. "I mean, I can do it my self," She said and then she gets up from her seat and heads downstairs.
Tim's gaze just followed Kira, he felt odd!
He knows there is something wrong!
Kira is in a daze while making her milk.
Her chest felt tightened when he saw Tim.
She feels hurt whenever she remembers about the will.
Kira sighs!
She doesn't know until when she can endure what she felt inside!
She is hurt by the fact that Tim married her for his wealth.
She admits it!
She has really fallen for Tim, but she doesn't know if he feels the same too.
