Forced Marriage: Escaping Her Monster

Chapter 138 - I Love You



Chapter 138 - I Love You

"I love you..."

Jerlina's voice was meek but it seemed to be filled with joy. He didn't know what he should do next.

His heart started to pound and his stomach hurt because of the sudden influx of happiness.

She said what?

"I love you sooo much..."

Her hold around his neck tightened and his knees weakened. He stumbled his way near his car and leaned on the hood to ensure he doesn't drop her.

She really said it... She said~

"...daddy!"

WHAT!!

Her next word interrupted his happy thoughts.

"Daddy... daddy...I love you..." she rubbed her cheeks on his and he let out a sigh.

His back humped and suddenly she felt so heavy that he couldn't carry her.

She's thinking about her dad?

-----

Jerlina was watching her boy and her mother playing in the distance.

And then the scene changed.

She was sitting in the dentist's office fearing to get in for her procedure. Her heart started to race and she didn't want to be there. She was thinking of running away.

At that time, the door opened and...

Her dad was back!

She jumped up from her seat and ran to her father. With a smile, he extended his arms.

"I'm here, Linny... for you..."

"You're here!! You're here!!!"

She couldn't help but shout and hugged around her dad's neck. Others were looking at her weirdly and she didn't care. She couldn't stop smiling.

"I love you... I love you so much, daddy... Daddy...daddy... I love you..."

She was so happy, she wanted to scream.

-----

Jeremy placed her on the passenger seat. Her hair was sprawled all over her face and he fixed it. Her face was slightly swollen and with the cotton balls stuffed in her mouth, she looked a bit funny.

"You're high, huh? You almost made me fly too, you know..." he mumbled. But she wasn't responding to him.

"Say, I love you, Joel... Come on..." he cupped her cheek softly.

"Daddy..." she grinned and he chuckled.

What a cute woman!

What's funnier is, although her speech was funny, he understood her well, as if he had known her all his life.

"You came back for me...daddy," she started to giggle and he traced his thumb over her forehead cupping her cheek gently.

At least she is happy...

"Daddy, can we not go to the dentist..?" She suddenly grabbed his collar.

Jeremy took in a deep breath. The doctor said it would take more than an hour for her to come out of the sedation and she probably will be acting this way till then.

He didn't want to take her home in case Emma was there. And even if she wasn't there, others would make fun of her. And so he decided to take her out.

"Jerlina... where do you want to go?"

He didn't expect an answer from her, but her cheerful cry made him laugh.

"To the park!! Daddy! To the park!"

"To the park it is!"

He shouted back and he smiled seeing her clap joyfully.

"Daddy, I love you the most..." she held his hand and said as he buckled the seatbelt.

"Me too, Jerlina... Me too..." he almost kissed her lips but ended up kissing her forehead.

She might be not of her best looks then, but her repeatedly saying 'I love you' made him want her.

This woman! When she is drunk she says she wants me as a big brother and when she is high, she is calling me her daddy.

Ugh! What should I do with her?

Daddy – she says thinking of her father... But why can't I get my head out of the gutter?

Darn, all those p*rn I watched with questionable titles!

-----

He took her to a park and it was closed since it was very late. But she was adamant and they jumped over the gates to get in.

He didn't know how she fit in the children's slide, but she did. And he pushed her in the swing.

"Higher, daddy... higher!!" she shouted as he pushed.

He tried to make her calm, but she didn't and he ended up letting her be. He has never seen her this free ever.

Back then, she would be very busy doing a lot of part-time jobs and when he met her again, she was stressed to the max, and then she... lost her child and ended up in despair.

Maybe this is good...

After that, she insisted that she needs ice cream and he didn't know which ice cream shop stay opened until this late. She rejected the notion of getting an ice cream bucket from the supermarket or takeout from a chicken chain restaurant. She insisted that she wanted ice cream from the ice cream shop that is served in a glass bowl.

"You're unmanageable when you're high... Follow me," he walked in the front.

"Daddy, carry me!" she held out her hands like a toddler and he had to oblige.

"Get on my back," he knelt in front of her and she got on enthusiastically.

She smelled like oranges... a bit citrusy. She smelled this way on their wedding day too. Back then... yeah...back then too... It must be her favorite scent.

Her hot breath fell on his ears making him sigh. Her chest was pressed on his back and he could feel her heart beating.

"Guess your boobs didn't grow for a decade," he mumbled. She just giggled back.

And I am still attracted to you.

His phone kept on ringing and he ignored all the calls. He had changed Emma's ringtone to the least priority ones, back then and he found it was not difficult to not answer her calls.

Mikhail called and asked if he could meet him before he leaves home for Christmas.

Rather than taking her elsewhere, Jeremy took her to the hotel Mikhail is staying at. He always stays in the Presidential suite and he can get her the ice cream she wants there.

When Mikhail opened the door, he was stunned seeing him with the beautiful load on his back.

"Daddy, who is he?" she asked and Mikhail started hiccupping. His eyes widened and he took a couple of steps back.

"What's this?" he couldn't contain his bewilderment.

"Take your role-playing elsewhere, eww!" he pushed the door to close.

He attended his wedding yesterday and his wife is calling him 'daddy'? Is nothing sacred in this world anymore?
