A Blessing in Disguise Ch. 6
Theresa can see a large bruise on Fox's left eye as Fox and Victor were wrestling one another. Victor managed to roll on top of Fox and pin him to the ground. "Now now dear cousin, aren't we violent," smirked Victor. "I wasn't the one who gave his cousin a black eye now was I," growled Fox as he was trying to push Victor off of him without any success. "It was a horrible accident. I was trying to protect myself and you ran into my fist," stated Victor with an innocent look on his face. "You believe me don't you Theresa?"
"Get off of him! You've done enough damage for one day," cried Theresa. 'Poor Fox. How can anyone be as horrific as Victor?'
"Well! I just wanted to let you know more about Fox's past. I thought it was a friendly gesture," Victor said defensively.
"Let's go Theresa. We'll leave this savage. I'm sure he will find another poor defensive victim to torment," said Fox as a waiter pulled Victor off of him.
"You all have to leave now. We do not allow this type of behavior here," stated the waiter.
"We're sorry. We were just leaving," apologized Theresa.
Fox and Theresa walked out of the restaurant with Victor following them. 'Does he ever give up. I mean, I know my family is cruel and heartless but this is ridiculous.'
When they finally stepped outside the restaurant, Victor maneuvered in front of them. "Isn't it rude to leave in the middle of the conversation? You didn't let me finish my conversation."
Fox whispered, "Ignore him," to Theresa. He then pulled out his cell phone to make a call. Fox didn't try to get away from Victor, seeing how his cousin would just follow Theresa and him every where they go.
"Well Theresa, I was just going to tell you why my cuz here cried like a baby the last time I saw him. It all began with this poor girl he thought he fell in LOVE with. It turns out that white trash was after his money all along." Theresa's jaw dropped as she continued to listen intently to the story. Her curiosity got the best of her. "Julian paid her money to end their relationship and to never talk to Fox again. She just took the money and never even had the decency to say goodbye or break off the relationship," Victor retold as he smiled a deviously. "Unfortunately, I was the one who broke the news to him at the country club." 'Another heart broken all due to me.' "Well it was nice meeting you Theresa." He grabbed Theresa's hand and kissed it. Then he walked into the bar next to the restaurant.
Fox was clueless about what just happened. He had difficulties getting a hold of the carriage driver. When he finally did, he saw the sad expression on Theresa's face. "What did that jerk say or do? Did he make a move on you? If he even tried, he'll wish he was never born." Fox's face turned red as the anger began to build up again.
"Who was the girl who hurt you?" asked Theresa sympathetically. Theresa can relate to Fox. After all, it was only a few hours ago Ethan ripped her heart away from her.
Fox looked down at his shoes, averting his eyes away from the person who stood in front of him. Theresa grabs Fox's left hand. "Fox, it me. You know you can tell me anything. I'm here for you like you're here for me."
They both look up as they here the carriage approaching them. Theresa turned her attention back to her friend as she sees tears streaming down Fox's face. He quickly wiped them away and helped Theresa into the carriage. "I've never seen you like this Fox. Please let me in."
"I don't want to talk about it. Just ....forget about it," said Fox with a heavy heart. "Please take her back to the house. Make sure she gets there safely." Fox pulled out some money and handed it to the driver.
The driver nodded and took off quickly. He sensed that this troubled man didn't want the young lady get off the carriage and follow him.
"Please stop the carriage," pleaded Theresa, but it was too late. Fox already disappeared. Theresa sunk back into her seat. 'Fox...why won't you let me in.'
