Chapter 22 (part 3)
Jude:she says that......that it's your child
Tommy:and you believe her?
Jude:why not?....I myself saw you come out of her room the exact day she came here
In that moment Sadie came down the stairs.
Sadie:hi I didn't know you were here
Without giving her the chance to get down Tommy grabbed her hand
and pulled her to were Jude was.
Sadie:what's got in to you?
Tommy:repeat in front of me what you told to Jude......how can you say that your child is mine when between us there nothing going on for months?
Sadie:and I was the one that said this?....it's not true
Jude:of course you told me this Sadie
Sadie:and when?
Jude:the same day you came here
Sadie:you're crazy
Jude:you even told me to say nothing to mum so she will not be worried
Sadie:you really lost your mind....how can you even think I told you something like this?.....if you're trying to make an excuse for not marrying you could have thought about another one but not this
Tommy:so the thing is clarified and since I'm not the father of this child there is no reason why calling off the engagement
Sadie:the thing is...
Tommy:and regard the visit I did to you the day you came here...tell Jude...tell her why I did it....didn't I tell you that if you tried to stop our wedding I would find a way to make you regret it?
Jude:was it for that?
Sadie:it's just I think you two should not get married
Tommy:what you think I don't care about it
Sadie:but you should because only a stupid can marry a woman that hates him.....yes Jude hates you
Jude:it's not true
Sadie:oh no, weren't you who told me?
Tommy:stop it...Don't make Jude seem ugly with your lies
Sadie:lies?....tell him yourself if they are lies
Jude:yes....they are all lies
Tommy:you have to stop throwing bullshits Sadie because no one believes you anymore
Sadie:you that talked so bad about me...you're worst, you're hypocrites....I wish you'll be unlucky and suffer how you deserve
And with that Sadie left and ran back to her room. Tommy and Jude
were alone again and Jude was crying for the cruel words Sadie said.
Tommy:don't listen to her...we both know how Sadie is....today I want to go buy the furniture for our house I hope you will not change your mind again until I'll be back....I will not be happy if you leave me a few days before our marriage
Jude:no
Tommy:you have to swear but not like your sister...you have to tell me the truth...swear it...swear it on god
Jude:yes, I swear
Tommy left and Jude was now in her room talking to Victoria.
Victoria:I thought we agreed that you were going to stop the engagement; can I know why you didn't do it?
Jude: couldn't
Victoria:why?
Jude:I don't know
Victoria:where you afraid that he would shout at you?...did he told you anything?
Jude:mum please I want you to leave me alone
Victoria:no, I did it once when you wanted to get in the convent but now no
Jude:but I want to marry him
Victoria:why?....it's not necessary anymore
Jude:you don't understand.....I love him mother
Victoria:you love him?......you're in love with him?
Jude:yes
Victoria:but since a day ago you were still in love with Chris
Jude:I don't love Chris...I love Tommy
Victoria:Jude..are you sure?
Jude:yes
The next morning Jude and Victoria went to the mall to buy some
Things but before they went to tell Sadie who was in the dining room
having breakfast and when Carmen came in she heard Victoria talking
about that Sadie was pregnant and she needed to eat. Victoria and Jude
said their goodbyes and left.
Carmen:you're pregnant?....why didn't you tell me?
Sadie:because it's not true
Carmen:but your mother said....
Sadie:don't go do your job instead
After a little bit Sadie left the dining room and went in Jude's room. She
looked around the room and then she began to open her drawers. She
didn't know why but she did. In one of the drawers she saw a photo
that caught her eye. It was a photo of Chris. She turned the photo and
there was something written on the back with Jude's handwriting.
Sadie:(reading the note on the photo) you are and you're always be my love until the last minute that god gives me until my last breath I'll take (laughing) so pathetic
Sadie left Jude's room and went in her's. She hid the photo and then
there was a knock at the door and it was Carmen that told her that
Chris was in the living room waiting for her. Sadie went down and
greeted Chris with a peck on the lips.
Chris:how are you?
Sadie:good
Chris:it doesn't seem from your face
Sadie:Chris I shouldn't have told you that I was pregnant
Chris:why?...it's not true?
Sadie:I was wrong...forgive me
Chris:it doesn't matter after all we have all our lives in front of us....how are your Mother and Jude?
Sadie:good they are busy with planning the wedding
Chris:and Tommy did you see him?
Sadie:yes, when I came to see my sister...I insist this wedding is stupid...please try again and do something
Chris:what can I do?....and it's too late...I thought a lot of the things that happened and....and I think I was wrong and selfish for the way I acted
Sadie:why are you saying this?
Chris:when I thought he was a poor sailor, a poor innocent that had to do what it took to defend himself....I felt sympathy for him and felt the desire to help him but then when I found out that he wasn't so poor and that I couldn't help him I felt frustrated...it's easy to be generous to who is inferior of you and when I found out that he was my brother I felt even worst then before...because before the man I thought was inferior to me was at the same level as me
Sadie:that is not exactly how it is Tommy can be a Dutois but he always remain a bastard
Chris:yes, but in any way he will always remain the son of my father...we both have the same blood
Sadie:fine and with that?
Chris:I was cruel and arrogant with him...Tommy is my brother....my big brother and that's what I have to see in him from now on
Sadie:and what are you thinking to do?
Chris:tell him, welcome him in our family and tell him to be a family....to be more united and to see each other more often
Sadie:good...I just can approve with your decision...in fact I was thinking why don't you invite them to spent a few days at the mansion after they get married?
Chris:no, that no I don't think my mother would like that
Sadie:another time your mother...listen Chris..
Chris:I know I know and I agree with you....I know that you two don't go so well together
Sadie:it's not that....it's that your mother has a bad character
Chris:and that's why I was thinking that maybe I and you could come live here on the beach
Sadie:is it true?
Chris:yes
Sadie:sweetie you can't imagine how happy you're making me
At the prison Robert was talking to Leopardi.
Robert:that bastard is really a bastard not only he has a powerful name now but he's even going to marry a great woman
In that moment Jamie came in.
Jamie:good afternoon
Leopardi:to what we own this visit?
Jamie:Chris is here and I took the opportunity to see what new news there is.....so
Robert:I was just saying to Leopardi about how lucky Tommy is but I presume you already know
Jamie:yes
Leopardi:he even bought a new house
Robert:they are saying that Tommy is rich
Jamie:and how he got rich?
Leopardi:what kind of question is that?...with the contraband
Jamie:from what I see you don't like that guy very much
Robert:you think?........jack pot
Jamie:then why don't we do something?
Leopardi:what do you have in mind?
