Sierra left home soon after and called Samuel, asking to meet.
Samuel was busy maneuvering his wheelchair and hadn't gone far. After she received his location, Sierra walked a short distance and quickly found him.
He looked noticeably upset. He wasn't feeling any better, even after yelling at Samantha earlier.
He had been forced to leave home at a young age, though he had parents. Besides, he had to take care of a girl who wasn't even his real sister. Samantha had been the rightful wife but was afraid of the mistress. He didn't understand why they had to leave the country in the first place.
Throughout it all, Samantha had never fought for them.
Sierra walked up and gently pushed Samuel's wheelchair forward. "Samuel, I'm sorry."
Samuel didn't say anything and just let Sierra push him.
"Samuel, let's open up to each other and talk honestly about how we feel."
Sierra pushed him into the nearby park and stopped. She sat down across from him, staring straight at him without blinking.
"I'll go first. I wasn't assaulted. Truth is, I was rescued. Everything I said about being assaulted was a lie. I just wanted to see how you would react and treat me if I had gone through something like Sophia."
"Sierra, did you have fun?" He finally spoke. His eyes misted over as he gritted his teeth and forced the words out. "Was it fun lying to me? Did you enjoy making up something that never happened and deceiving me?"
"Samuel, are you trying to quarrel with me?" Her tone stayed calm. Compared to his teary, red eyes, she seemed almost unnervingly composed.
"I heard everything you said earlier and took it to heart. I wanted to sit down and talk it out with you. But if you just want to fight, then I'll leave."
She stood up as if to go, but he hurriedly grabbed her wrist. "Darling, don't go. Have a seat. I'll talk it out properly."
Only then did she sit back down. "Go ahead and tell me what's on your mind."
"I don't want a divorce," he said. "Cee, I admit that when I heard you had gone through something like that, I couldn't accept it at first. Besides, after being scolded and criticized by everyone for how I spoke about Sophia, I lost control. Even now, I don't believe Sophia was innocent.
"When she was first hurt, she could've gone straight to Sky. He doted on her and wouldn't tolerate a maid abusing her. He may be shameless, but the Walker family greatly cares about their pride.
"If Sophia had just spoken up at the start, none of this would've happened. She tricked Marcus, pretending to be his savior. Isn't that despicable?
"I was just expressing how I feel. But in everyone else's eyes, I became the villain."

Elijah the cupid 😂...
This one gets us readers asking for more! Excellent story, great twists......
Hope Grandpa Charles lives long enough to see Marcus and Nat's children, please. It will make him happy to see life is still worth living and that he didn't fail raising Marcus at least. Let him be happy at least in this aspect. Thanks...
Finished till 538....Waiting for more...
This really hurts. I am confused if Yvette sent a msg saying old love to Charles through Charlene. Why isnt it in her confession. Or did she actually set vivian up into sleeping with that man? And later blackmailed vivian with it till vivian commited suicide? Did Yvetty yhinks Charles would marry her after vivians death but he remained loyal. Hence her anger?...
Hope Nat can cure Marcus' mom. Looking forward to new updates. Thank you...
