"For what you have done to me eight years ago and the hell that you forced me to go through?" Lise talked calmly, but her eyes were so empty. "For the way you forced yourself on me? For the way you threatened me?"
Gael's expression became darker with every word that came out of Lise's lips. He said nothing and didn't argue with her about what he had done.
"River is the only thing that I am grateful for what you have put me through," Lise said. "So, bring me back my daughter and maybe I will forgive you for that."
"River is my daughter too," Gael pointed out. He knew that there was a time when Lise looked like she had accepted him, but there would be times when she would snap at him and look at him with anger in her eyes too.
And one such time was now. Gael could see hatred in her eyes. Maybe it was because Lise was not emotionally stable as they lost their daughter and that fact messed up with her emotions.
