Chereads / Saving A Stranger (On Hold) / Chapter 20 - Extreme Guilt

Chapter 20 - Extreme Guilt

Renly who saw the young lady curled up on the couch with no blanket , he cursed himself in his heart. She was only in his shirt , she was in a sitting position with her legs folded on the couch as she rested on the arms of the couch , her hair was covering half of her face as well. She looked defeated which made his guilt doubled in folds. Goodness , he was really a jerk , he thought to himself.

" Renly you've been absent since last night , you never came home for dinner and this girl was worried about your wounds but you never picked up her calls , better don't do anything you will regret later " his father warned sternly but would he listen to his advice..? .

" Bro you should rethink about everything , she's a good girl. She would make a better wife " Azure advised truthfully as he slapped him on the shoulder.

" Take her upstairs and come to my study for a chat " his father said with a slight sigh of helplessness . he really doesn't know what to do anymore , Renly is difficult to talk to when he makes a decision.

Among his four children Renly is the most difficult to talk to and even Edward was aware of all this he was still going to talk to him about it because he really doesn't want to see him beat himself up in the future if he let go of Zilvshun , plus apart from her he wouldn't accept another person as his son's wife , it's not like he was being cruel or judging but he just know that Zilvshun was the right woman for his son .

" Okay father " Renly replied as he walked towards the young woman , he carefully and gently carried her upstairs making sure he didn't disturb her sleep , Renly got to his room and laid her on his bed with an extreme gentleness. He covered her with a blanket and exited the door with a sigh of tiredness.

Renly sat in front of his father in the study as they both stared at each other intently but Edward's stare was more probing than his son's. " Where were you last night ? " he heard his father asked , Renly scratched the back of his head in guilt accompanied by a troubled sigh .

" I went to see her , she had threatened me with the boy , I didn't have a choice because I feel responsible for him and although I'm not his father I still can't stand anything bad happening to him " Renly said truthfully as he knew his father would not say a word until he knows where he went last night .

" And you thought it was the best thing to do without informing her first...? " Edward asked his son with sarcasm in his eyes followed by a chuckle of disbelieve , he really doesn't understand this young man anymore , now he really believe in the saying that " you won't know what you've got until you loose it " and he knows his son would one day remember that as well.

" Listen to this " his father said as he pressed the play button on his cell phone as a voice recording started playing. " Is he alright ...? " a voice asked , Renly who heard the voice looked at the cell phone in shock.

" Yes he is " a male voice sounded reassurance .

" Okay thanks but keep updating me" the lady replied with a tired sigh.

" Eeerrrrmmm don't you wanna know his location..? " the male asked curiously.

" No it doesn't matter , let it be " the female replied without hesitation before the line went off .

Renly massaged his temples in guilt , this woman was really extraordinary , even though he didn't replied her calls or texts messages , she still accompanied him silently without his knowledge but he went out without even bothering about her feelings , the fact that she was protecting his ass while he was with another woman was something he felt guilty about , she had waited for his until the wee hours of the morning.

" Your mother and grandparents are not happy about what you did last night but because they didn't want to say anything about it in her presence they swallowed their dissatisfaction with you but after seeing her like that I'm sure he'll would break loose soon " Edward told his son , he wanted him to be prepared for whatever will happen later .

" I know what they would do " Renly said with a helpless sigh as both of them stood up and exited the study together

Zilvshun didn't care if he was with someone else at that time the only thing that matters to her was his safety , although she was worried about him it doesn't mean she wasn't hurt in other ways but of course she wouldn't let him know that she was hurt by his actions.

She is also aware that they both don't love each other , they only care for each other , what they feel for each other couldn't be described as the love between a man and a woman that's why she has decided not to interfere until she knows what she feels for him or about him .

Renly and his father got downstairs and exited the elevator , after getting to the living room they saw an angry Silvia and grandparents sitting down with cold aura surrounding them. Both father and son sat down with a helpless sigh knowing what was coming next.

" You went to see her " his mother stated with a scowl on her beautiful face , she just didn't get why on earth her son was being controlled by that unloyal woman who has nothing to do with her life other than destroying someone's life.

" Yes I did " Renly muttered his answer with his eyes casted downward , he was really nervous about what his mother and grandparents would do next .

" I knew it " his grandmother commented throwing up her hands in exasperated manner , his grandson isn't a dense person , she wondered what happened to the Renly they all know , if first love can make most people become fools then nobody would want to fall in love.

" You went to see that woman after everything , to be honest with you , I don't care about what you do with her but making Alan's daughter look like a fool is totally and completely out of the line " his grandfather said coldly , the amount of coldness in his voice made Renly shivered internally .

" You know what , you're really unpredictable and you're being an ass . She could love you , she could take care of you if you grant her the chance but no you are just taking her for granted which is something I would not support , not even in death , you're my son and I want what's best for you but you've clearly made your stance on this issue " his mother said in disbelieve as well as disappointment.

" If you continue with this act and you eventually loses her , don't regret it because you caused it yourself . I'm still surprised she isn't packing out of your life . Do you think if it was that woman she would have stayed ? , would she let you have your peace ? . Only you can answer this questions " his mother warned him followed by her questions which he doesn't know how to answer..

" Your mother is right . This time around we won't interfere but we also don't want to see that girl here " his grandmother added while his old man hummed in agreement with her. Renly felt like a child being scolded by his parents as he released a sigh before leaning into the couch.

" Yeah , I will be there in five minutes " a voice sounded behind them accompanied by a rush of footsteps which they turned to look at with a slight frown , they saw Zilvshun who had one of her sneakers in her had while she slipped her other hand which was holding her cell phone into the arm of her t-shirt .

" I promise you nothing bad would happen to him if you do as I said earlier . Yes just keep his heart beating until I get there " she added before hanging up and grabbing the keys on the tea table in front of them while slipping on the other sneaker and her her was everywhere which made her looked kinda cute.

" Good morning everyone , I have an emergency , sorry I can't stay for breakfast or coffee " she said with a sleepy voice as she buckled her shoes up swiftly whiles her eyes were half closed . She had only slept for two and a half hours that's why she sounded like that.

" Please make sure you change your bandages and clean your wounds because I can't do those today as I'm busy , so sorry about that and if you can't do it , sister Mira would help you out " she said as she took her helmet.

" See you all later " she added in a rush as she sprinted out of the living room , seconds later they heard the roar of her motorcycle engine as she zoomed off as the family gapped at the entrance of the living room .
