Chapter 22
At the Harrison's house while eating breakfast.
Sadie:you have to believe me it's a closed story...I made a mistake
Victoria:and you call that a mistake to give your body to a man that is not your husband?
Sadie:I already told you I didn't gave myself to him.....I'm saying the truth, it all was talks that Angelica said...and from Jude that didn't want me to marry Chris....you don't believe me....fine with time you will.....and about my sister it's not necessary that she marry a man that she doesn't love....my feelings towards Tommy are gone now....especially now that....I can be pregnant
Victoria:a child?....is it true?....god I'm happy
Back at the mansion in Mike's house Anna went to talk to him.
Anna:how much do you want for the letter?...after all you don't need it I already accepted Tommy...I gave him our name
Mike:and the lands?....in the letter Mr Stuart wanted that Tommy has part of them
Anna:fine how much do you want tell me
Mike:you know I always was faithful to you and respected you even to Mr Chris...I will never do anything to hurt you
Anna:than why don't you give me what is mine?
Mike:because things here had changed...your son doesn't like me he already took my job as a supervisor and who tells me that tomorrow he will not throw me out?....after all you can't give him orders like when he was a kid
Anna:but I can give you enough money that you can but another house somewhere else
Mike:the fact is that I don't want to leave...I was born here, lived here and I want to stay here
Anna:fine I promise you..I swear to you that no one will throw you out
Mike:thanks Mrs But I prefer I keep the letter just in case you change your mind
Anna:no, I will never change it
Mike:anyway I'm going to keep it and don't worry no one will ever find it they have to kill me to have to because I keep it's always on me
Anna:you're making the wrong choice towards me and this is not going to help you so think about it
At the Harrison's house on the beach Victoria went in Jude's room to
talk to her.
Victoria:so you already knew?
Jude:yes
Victoria:and why you said nothing to me Jude?
Jude:because I thought that Sadie already told you
Victoria:and you're not happy?
Jude:yes
Victoria:why so much hurt rate towards each other....you're sisters you have to learn to forgive each other...of course with Sadie pregnant it out of risk that she does something crazy with Tommy...Jude if you want you can...
Jude:break my engagement?
Victoria:I know it will be a scandal but we can sell this house and go somewhere else..what do you think?....marriage is for always...I don't want you to suffer sweetie..sometimes mistakes are made because we're afraid of what people say...look of what happened with your sister..I know it was my fault that I was the one that stopped you from telling Chris and look now what you have to do...I don't want you to sacrifice yourself just because of what people will say around here...we can leave and begin new somewhere else and you can begin to live again
Sadie was in her room when there was a knock at the door and in came
Carmen.
Sadie:did you saw him?
Carmen:no, Mrs he doesn't live there anymore but there was that guy...Spied and he told me that he left the house to him and that Tommy is now sleeping at Quest's tavern
Sadie:and where is this tavern?
Carmen:I don't know
Sadie:you should have asked him stupid....and my message?
Carmen:here it is
Sadie:ok now I want you to find out where this tavern is
Carmen:but your mother will not leave me go out again
Sadie:I will take care of that you just go and hurry
Carmen:yes, Miss
At the front door there was a knock and Victoria went to open and
there was Mr Darius.
Darius:sorry for coming like this
Victoria:no, it's not a problem..the fact is that Carmen needed to go out so I had to do something in the kitchen my self
Darius:then I'm sure that lunch today will be wonderful
Victoria:then stay to lunch with us
Darius:no, no I can't I have another place to go but next time I will accept ......you will think I'm very annoying Mrs Victoria but I think that Jude needs to reflect better before she gets in this marriage...she can give another month of time in engagement
Victoria:I was thinking the same thing and I don't care about the scandal
Darius:sure?
Victoria:yes, you know she was going to marry Tommy for the problem that was with Sadie but now it seems that Sadie is pregnant and how you could understand it difficult now that she and Tommy....you understood me
Darius:yes, of course I understand
Meanwhile Jude was in the garden reading a book and Sadie was beside
her.
Sadie:are you so stupid?...nothing matters to you?....not even that I have his child inside me....what will it serve marrying him since you know we will keep seeing each other?...you think you already got him because before he leaves he gives you a kiss?.....Tommy loves me you understand?....only me...and when he's having sex with you he will do it just because of his needs nothing else
Jude:stop it...you're cruel you keep saying horrible things when this all began because of you...why didn't you kept your Tommy and left Chris alone?
Sadie:that's what I should have done
Jude left running towards the house. Tommy who was walking towards
the house saw Jude but when Jude saw him she changed direction but
Tommy called after her and went running after her to stop her. He
grabbed her hand and stopped her and saw that she was crying.
Tommy:Jude.....Jude what happened?
He pulled her in to a hug.
Tommy:calm down please....I don't like to see you cry..what happened?
In the meantime Sadie went inside and went were Victoria and Darius
where.
Darius:it's a pleasure to see you Sadie
Sadie:thanks Mr darius
Darius:and Chris?
Sadie:he left back to the mansion immediately he had some work to do but he will be here in the weekend
Victoria:I was telling the good news to Mr Darius....I told him that you're pregnant
Darius:congratulation to you and Chris of course
Sadie:thanks
Back with Tommy and Jude, Tommy remove his jacket and put it on the
grass and motioned to Jude to sit down.
Tommy:sit down
Jude:no
Tommy:I just want to talk and I think you will be more comfortable sitted
Jude:but the fact is that...that it's not right..It's better if we go inside
Tommy:inside there is your mother and your sister and I want to talk to you alone..please don't have so scruples .....after all in a week we're going to be married
Without another word Jude sat down and Tommy next to her.
Tommy:tell me why were you crying
Jude:I had a discussion with my sister
Tommy:why?
Jude:family things
Tommy:since I'm going to be part of this family I want to know exactly what happens......you don't want to tell me?
Jude:it's just...
