Chapter 261 - Annoyed With Himself

Matthew chuckled at her words, "The reason she confides to me and not to  you is because she sees you like a baby, she treats you like her child and is not comfortable discussing a few things with you" Matt explained.

"Yeah, but I feel it is because of what mom and dad did, that Emily stopped talking to me too" Lisa sadly said recollected that day when Emily shouted at her parents, broke all the stuff in the house, cried louder and louder after knowing how their parents aborted her child without letting her know.

"No Lisa, although she was upset with your parents for what they did, she was not once upset with you. She has always been only proud of you" Matt stroked her head lovingly.

"Really?"

"Hmm"

Then Matt listed a few of Lisa's achievements over a period which Lisa never mentioned before.

Lisa was surprised he had all these updates on her.

Then Matt informed her how Emily always kept an update on Lisa and was proud of her.

"Glad to know all of this" Lisa smiled at Matt, thankful to him for letting her know about something she had no idea of.

…

Few hours back

After knowing the truth, Patrick wanted to see Emily immediately and he drove back home like a crazy man.

He blamed Emily for the abortion.

Initially he was understanding of the situation but when Emily didn't answer him, he assumed she was the one who took this decision.

After knowing how she was manipulated by her parents and how she herself was broken due to their actions, Patrick was angry at himself.

Only if he didn't fight and give up on them, they wouldn't have been separated for so many years.

When he threatened to break up with Emily, he hoped and  expected that she would be back and waited for her  but when she didn't, he took it on his ego and didn't try to contact her again.

Patrick was annoyed with himself, he wondered what the hell he was thinking to let her go all those years back.

The pain of losing a child, mixed with his anger towards Emily for not telling him the truth, then her indifference to his threat to break up, all piled up and led to his actions resulting in their long break up.

Once Patrick reached the building, he didn't even care to wait for the elevator, he ran up the stairs and opened the door.

Emily was not present in the living room, for a moment Patrick panicked wondering if she went elsewhere.

Just then, his sensitive ears caught a sobbing voice coming from Emily's bedroom, he ran towards there and saw Emily lying on the bed, crying a lot.

Her back was facing him, as she lay on her stomach. 

His heart ached, seeing her state. Sitting next to her, he caressed her long hair, "Ems" he softly called.

"Pat, ple…ase le…ave me alo…ne for so…me time" Emily requested him in her broken voice.

"No, this time I am not leaving you alone to cry" He firmly declared.

Emily got up and turned around, "Pat, please get out…"

Patrick held her hand, with one strong tug, he pulled her towards him, he tightly hugged her soft body and apologized, "I am so sorry Ems, I blamed you for the loss of our child all these years. Why did you never tell me that you too had no idea of what happened? Why would you hide this from me? Why?"

Emily was surprised when she heard his words, she looked at him in shock, "Did Matt tell you?"

Patrick shook his head, "No, your parents told me of what happened."

"They?" Emily was confused so Patrick explained what happened after she left.

"I am sorry Patrick, it was so shameful to let anyone know what my parents did to me. That day I couldn't bring myself to tell you the truth. I love you Pat but I can't dishonour my parents. I was sure I would never be able to tell you the truth, so I gave up on us." 

Emily finally shared what was in her heart with Patrick. Although she was talking between her sobs, Patrick understood everything she said.

"I am sorry too for giving up on us, I should have come to Cambridge…"

Emily put a finger on his lips to stop him from talking, "Even if you did, I would have avoided you. Thus, hurting us both. At that time, I wanted to break up with you Patrick, that was why your threat didn't affect me. Even if you would have tried to pursue me, I wouldn't have budged, in turn we both would have ended up being more hurt."

"Why did you wish to break up?"

"How could I face you after all that happened? How could I pretend like nothing happened and be normal?" Emily questioned him.

Patrick held the back of her head and sealed her lips with his, he wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her body on him.

Emily hugged him and responded to his kiss.

Patrick slowly nibbled on her lips, his hand went behind her dress and unzipped it, he ran his fingers across her back and when his fingers came in contact with the bra, he unhooked it.

Emily shuddered when she felt his cold fingers move across her back.

"Pat" She softly called his name while still kissing him.

Patrick broke the kiss and made her lie on the bed.

"I want you Emily" Patrick looked into her eyes.

"Me too." She softly whispered.

Patrick pulled down her dress, the bra too came off with the dress as he unhooked her bra earlier.

He threw her dress away and took her exposed bosom in his mouth, as if trying to swallow it whole. He licked on the bosom and bit on her nipple which already turned hard due to his actions. He squeezed her other bosom with his hand.
