Chereads / A Life That's Fake / Chapter 8 - Name

Chapter 8 - Name

"Leigh Filin was my fiancée and she died because of you and your group. You have got no right to negotiate!" his words came out while his teeth remained greeted.

Hearing of that, Tia was suddenly taken aback. Her eyes that were glaring him till now moved down due to guilt and she remembered the last words Leigh has said to her.

'How can I dare to live as her,' her forehead puckered as she bit her lips in rage.

For her living as Leigh was a sin, she didn't want to commit even though it was Leigh herself who has wished for that.

And she asked, "Why? At least tell me why you want me to live as your fiancée who was killed by me?" she raised her blood shot eyes, urging for an answer.

Although she could think of a few answers herself, but she was still curious.

"You are from the terrorist organization so I want to make use of you till your last breath to get rid of those f*king organizations. That's it," he replied honestly and moved back.

"That's it?" Tia looked baffled.

For her being used by others wasn't a big thing to begin with so she was expecting something crueller from a person who lost his fiancée because of her.

Yet all he did was nodded, "And I am not waiting for your response. You have to do what I say and that's a given if you don't want to end up behind the lock up".

Tia looked at him cluelessly till he uttered next, "Listen carefully, your head is injured so you don't remember anything".

With his words leaving his mouth, Tia touched her forehead, it was bandaged but she had no memory of getting a head injury.

She was still standing in front of the door facing him who has moved toward the window. Aside from them, she could hear a few steps coming closer toward the room.

"Try to run or ruin the plan and you will be finished in one shot," with his two figures, he aimed at her direction as he said.

She looked at him with such a serious look, he couldn't even read what was going in her mind when she suddenly walked toward him and laid back on the bed.

"She is good now," Dr. Ryan the one in charge of Tia looked at Roff with a smile.

He was Roff's older brother and one of Gordon's. Three years older than Roff but more childish and aloof. Nobody can even guess of him being a doctor if he ever walks without his uniform.

Roff nodded and averted his gaze from his childish brother eyes which was laughing at him.

"Ms. Filin?" he called Tia.

Lost in her thought, Tia was still very unused by this unfamiliar name and didn't care to look.

"Ms. Filin, you need to get used by this name," he smiled very prettily and took off his beautiful glasses from his smart face.

Tia brows slightly creased in surprise as she slowly looked toward him to the left with her eyes filled with curiosity. Then suddenly she quickly threw a gaze at her right where Roff was.

Her expression filled with question was simple.

Roff chuckled and got up. He walked to the other side of bed and placed his arm over his brother shoulder, "He is my brother, Ryan. He knows everything. Except me and him, no one knows anything so, starting from now, get used to that name. you can't make the same mistake you did just now".

Tia nodded in silence. As her eyes penetrated deep into his, she could feel hostility and hatred toward herself coming from him. That was an emotion that she was quite familiar with and as usual it didn't matter her much.

"Don't pay much attention to him, he can get quite irritated sometimes," Ryan sat next to the bed. He brought the topic of the first day when Tia woke up.

Three days went by since she remained in that room without going anywhere and while staying there, she became quite suspicious of a few facts. Her face reflected how curious she was about a few things.

"Doctor, may I ask something?" she threw her doubtful gaze over him.

The girl was still on the bed, leaning on the board when she threw a few questions after he nodded, "I woke up from two days coma and now three days has been passed by but no one came to see me. Why is that? Leigh has a family, isn't it?".

Doctor Ryan raised his eyebrows while childishly pressing his lips, he giggled all of a sudden and replied, "And here I thought you were feeling bad because my brother didn't come to see you after that day".

Nothing but awkward made its place within their conversation when Tia looked all serious over that joke. His laughing face slowly dimmed and he cleared his throat, "For now everyone thinks that you are still at the boundary side of Rue and Laxerian. The fact that you are back to your city has been kept secret to give you some time to learn about this place and people".

Tia nodded seriously.

"Excuse me for asking this late but what's your real name?" he moved a little closer to the bed, scanning the troubled look on her face as she started to think seriously again.

"84. That's what people used to call me. Anyway, why do you keep forgetting to lock that door, what if I run away," she pointed at the door of the room and that changed the topic.

Ryan once looked back at the door and with a smile over his face, he turned his gaze back at her, "To test you, of course. But for the past three days, you didn't even walk out, did you not feel bored".

Bored?

Tia used to stay couped in a small hall guarding it for months without feeling much, in comparison, this room was still very peaceful and bright.

"I will say it once, I have nowhere to run off, so end with this topic and let's begin with the reason your people brought me here".

Ryan quickly shook his head, "Nah, there still some time left for it, so for now rest". He stood up to leave but while on his way to the door, he looked back once, that dull look on her face was quite pitiful for a doctor to see so he asked, "Do you want to look around?"
