At 10am sharp, White and Rachel arrived downstairs. Rachel wore a pink dress which dressed her waist nicely, as her hair was curled lose. She had a pink and grey bag with a chain to hold it as she wore flat open shoes to finish her look.
White wore a a side short sleeve on her upper arm leaving her shoulder bare, as the dress losely hung to her knees. Her hair too was left untied, and was only brushed slightly to crush down the natural curls she had.
She had a small and simple black bag, similar to Rachel only it was a simple and natural version. Yulia and Ginny were already ready and were waiting for them to leave. Once the Girls had appeared they felt surprised to see White trying to dress nicely.
"is it.. to much ?" she ask.
Her father appeared "its perfect. Its not to short too" White turned around and look at him. He only laughed and hugged her. "Have fun today"
White nodded and the Girls left straight After.
They first went shopping. The adults went to a cafe to talk while the teenagers were left to shopping. However, A Bodyguard had to follow them not to far away. But they didn't really Care.
They entered shops, tried some clothes, hesitated ans left to other shops where they buy. After they shop for themselves, they had at least 2 dress each. Rachel had bought a New bag, and White was searching something to buy for Liam.
She ventured with Rachel around different shops until she founded the best gifts. The strap was a golded métal color as the buckle was an easy closure button. The crown on the watch was detailed in its design and the crystal protected the hands of the watch. It was beautiful to her and she really wanted to buy it for him.
"should i buy this for him?" She ask Rachel.
"he'll love it!" She replied and White called a worker to buy it. After Spending the money, the Girls went back to the Cafe to join their mothers.
"What did you Girls bought?" Yulia ask.
"Rachel bought two dresses and a bag, and i also bought two dresses, and a watch" White replied.
" a watch?" Ginny ask
"Yes.. i want to give it as a gift to Liam" She replied.
Ginny nodded and sip her tea. "Do you want to go back or do you want to go to the spa as well?" she ask
"We Can go back Home, i don't want Dad's money to be Gone in only a few amounts of hours" she Smiled.
Ginny shake her head and chuckled. "why did i ask"
"because you Care" Yulia replied.
They all giggled, and After the teas were Gone, and everyone was packed. They left to the Mansion.
....
It had now been 2 weeks, since the incident. Sarah's lawyer arrived with some paperworks and showed them to Sarah. "This are the symptoms. You just got to act up to those symptoms and they will believe you"
Sarah smiles dangerously and thought already about her Victory.
"once i win, i Can get rid of that obstacle then we Can live a free life" she look at the lawyer and he smiled mischeviously. "i'll be waiting" he replied.
"Court hearing will be in 4 days" He added and left before rubbing her hand like a lover.
"i'll See you then" She smiled and waved back.
......
Walking dreamily to her room, she was imagining the reaction he'll have when receiving the gift. Smiling, and giving her hugs and telling her thank you a lot, and i love yous. She was for once feeling super happy about it, she start skipping to her room. Opening her door, she see Liam.
"Liam!!" she exclamed happily
Liam turned around. "where the hell were you? i Saw worried for you, you need to stay in bed, you're still sick"
"Liam, i'm fine now. I just went out shopping and i brought you a gift!" She Say showing the box.
"so you rather risk your health for a lame gift for me" he opened the box "what a cheap Watch, its ugly too"
White froze, she felt millions of needles piercing her hurt. He wasn't happy.
"you're sick you need to stay inside, i don't want you to leave this room you hear me?!" he ordered.
"But its my Home! My choices! i'll allowed to do what i want to do. You can't force me to do things you wish!" She yelled.
"I Can! because you're my fiancé ! I have every right to take Care of you!" He yelled back.
"This is not Caring! this is being obsessive and controlling!" She refuted, clutching the side of her dress in her hands.
"Oh so you rather die to give me a lame gift that's cheap and ugly?! Listen love, i have the right to tell you what i want you to do. Such as, i don't want you to Wear dresses like this anymore." He Said, control in his voice.
She look down. " what happened to you..." she mumbled. "if me being engage to you gives you the right to control me.. then.. i want to break the engagement" she spoke quietly.
"what?!" he ask, looking at her with a deathly glare. She could no longer see the love and the Care in his eyes.
"i.. i want to break the engagement. I want to break up" she Say a little loudly.
"what did you Say?" he ask, rage in his voice now.
She begun to tremble. " i Said i want to break up"
SLAP
Holding her cheek in her hand, as the burning sensation made her cry. He glared at her and ask again " what did you Say?"
"i..i said nothing. i..i'm sorry... " she look down. She was still rubbing her cheek.
"that's good. Good girl, now please sleep" for a moment his voice had a little bit of gentleness yet it still felt cold and controlling.
"o-ok.." she went to lay down in her bed.
"i'll be going to work, i'll be late Home" he said before leaving. She stared at the ceiling until she Heard the sound of a car leaving. She left her bed and went to check downstairs.
"Liam just left" A maid said. "o-ok.."
White replied and went back downstairs, instead of going to her room she entered Henry's one. She look around and did not see him there, she layed in his bed and begun to cry. She brought her legs to her chest and she surrounded them. The tears rolling down as her cheek swelled a little from the hit of earlier.
Henry then entered the room, he instantly Heart the crying and Saw White on his bed. He closed the door and went to her. He sat on the floor and look at her.
"what's wrong?" he ask
She kept crying and did not answer.
He went on his knees and dried the tears away. "Tell me, what happenned ?" He ask, with a gentle voice.
"L-liam... he... he.. he changed.." she spoke sadly. "I bought a gift with all my love, yet when received, he destroyed it all... all the love and happiness i gaved... I found it beautiful, yet he called it ugly and cheap..."
"what was it?" he ask
"it was a golden watch. It was the most expensive in the shop.." she replied.
He look at her face then noticed her swollen cheek. "what happened to your cheek?" he ask
Her eyes widen.
"oh, that, i hit my face agaisn't your door when i camed in. "she lied with a bitter smile.
She realised, if she were to tell Henry. Liam will probably Beat him like last Time, and she doesn't want Henry to worry about her.
"oh ok, i'll get an ice pack. You rest here for awhile" Henry spoke.
She nodded and look at him leave. Once the door closes, she burst into tears again. He could hear the cries. He wondered what actually happened.
"Mum, where's Yulia?" Henry ask.
"why son? Are you sick?" she ask.
"No, White just hit her face and i wanted to make sure nothing was broken or if any problem could happen because of her head injury" Henry replied.
Ginny look at him. "she's in the kitchen"
"Thanks Mum" He replied. He took an ice pack. "Yulia, could you examine White's face? She injured her face, and i want to be sure nothing is broken" He ask.
Yulia nodded and followed him to his room.
After awhile, She furrowed her eyebrows. "Are you sure you hut your face agaisn't the door, it looks more like someone hit you" Yulia ask her.
"Yeh of course, m'y eyes were blury from crying and hit my face in the door" she lied again. Yulia furrowed her eyebrows more and placed the ice on her cheek.
"Be more careful next Time"
White only nodded.
Henry, him, was starring at White. He seemed angry. She look at him "why do you look so angry?"
"Did he hit you?" he ask, meaning Liam.
"no of course not!" she replied.
"well it does add up together. He rejected your gift, he could have hit you too" His gaze had darkened.
Yulia look at White questionly and then at Henry "i don't think my son is abusive, he loves White to much. And he's stressed lately with his job. So he will appoligise about his behaviour from earlier. He probably didn't mean to reject your gift." she spoke gently.
"probably.." White replied. Henry on the other side was getting angrier.
After Yulia left, Henry sat next to White. "Did he lay a hand on you?" he ask.
"no, he didn't hit me!" she lied again, she look away to hide the tears from falling.
"stop lying, you're crying. Again. Everytime i see you cry now its because of him; its no longer because of Hunter but because of Liam. Is everything okay between you guys?" he ask.
"He's just stressed lately, Yulia said so herself." she replied.
"White, tell me." He pleaded.
"i need to go back to my room before he Comes Home" She changed the subject as she stood up. He gently grabbed her wrist. "Before you go, Can you close your eyes for a minute"
She look at him, puzzled.
"close your eyes"
She closed her eyes, and something warm and gentle touch her lips. She opened her eyes, to see Henry Kissing her. She didn't kiss back, she didn't push him back. And she didn't froze. After his lips departed hers, he look at her. He could see that tears were threatening to fall again. He smiled soflty and wipe away those tears before hugging her. She hugged back and cried a little more. "i probably should go back before he Comes back" She Say again. Henry let her go, and watch her as she left sadly.
