Chapter 229 - Ch. 229 Her Heart Cried But Her Eyes Didn't

The two of them had arrived at the ticket check, but only Kaylee went inside while Roxy didn't move from her spot. Not that she couldn't get in, but Roxy didn't take out her boarding ticket and her passport.

"Sister? Where are your ticket and passport? Why don't you come in?" asked Kaylee in confusion and wondered why her sister had not taken out her ticket.

"I'm sorry, but I changed my mind." her short answer brought nothing but further confusion.

"What do you mean?"

"I only bought one ticket, and I'm not going with you this time. So you're going to go home yourself and tell papa that I'm going to stay in Barcelona."

"But… the registered name is yours."

"Precisely. Your name," repeated Roxanne in a firm tone. She even smiled when she saw her sister's agitated expression.

"Sister…" begged Kaylee as if she would be destroyed if her sister wasn't by her side.

"Nu-uh. I am Kaylee, and you are my elder sister. Your appearance is perfect, just like me." Roxanne looked at her sister from head to toe with satisfaction.

As usual, no one would ever set them apart. No one would ever know that it was Kaylee who came home instead of her. Well, as soon as Kaylee met their mother, she would know right away.

"But… I can't do it alone. I need you."

"I know you can. You're the best sister I've ever had."

"I am your only sister."

Roxy giggled lightly, hearing her desperate tone. "That's why you're the only one I can count on."

"Sister…"

"Sister Roxy, I'll count on you." Roxy interrupted her sister by calling her own name to her sister.

She saw a disappointed and gloomy face on Kaylee, but she ignored it. She even felt like partying because she managed to get her sister out of this country.

She would get the black moon guy, and this time she wouldn't let that man go.

That night, she decided to go early at dawn because she got word that her father sent one of his henchmen to track her down. If her father found out that she has slept with a strange man even though they did nothing, her father would surely hunt the handsome mister.

She didn't want her father to find the handsome mister. Hence, she left quietly without leaving any clues to the man so that he wouldn't look for her.

Maybe after two or three months, Roxy would find him and meet him at the same bar. But, who would have thought that it wasn't their fate to reunite? Never did she expected the handsome mister didn't come to the bar again after that night.

On the other hand, her sister was so lucky to meet the handsome mister directly and spend the last two weeks with him.

She didn't know when the handsome mister would wake up, but she had overheard the doctor in charge of Declan's recovery talking to one of his assistants.

'He shows movement, and his eyes react to light. It looks like he'll wake up soon enough.'

Roxy wished to be by that man's side as soon as he wakes up. She would lie and tell the man that she has accompanied him for the past two weeks.

After all, she was a pianist, and her gifts were far greater than Kaylee's. She also knew the song her sister was playing because she'd sneaked in to hear her play when Kaylee played the piano for him.

Roxy didn't know what Kaylee had said to the man, but it didn't matter to her. She had a thousand ways to cover up this little fact, and the man would never notice.

Besides, they had met last year, and it was her advantage.

"The flight to Folkland Island CE743 will depart shortly at 1:44 pm." an announcement sounded, and it was time for Kaylee to enter the boarding gate.

"It's time. Go on and say hi to mama for me." urged Roxy felt impatient to escort her sister away.

Kaylee was speechless and decided to walk towards the gate of her plane. Every two steps, she would look back at her sister with pleading eyes in hopes that her elder sister would change her mind.

Usually, Roxy would feel disheartened to see her desperate gaze and grant her wish, but that day… Roxy was somehow heartless and act oblivious to her desperate expression.

On the contrary, the heartless sister smiled at him and waved her hand enthusiastically. On the other hand, Kaylee couldn't smile, and with a defeated expression, Kaylee walked into the boarding gate.

Roxy did feel guilty, but she steeled her heart. She promised herself she would make up for her selfishness that day once she had the handsome mister and came home.

Never did she imagine, the accident happened and took the life of her only sister.

Never did she expect, her conversation with her sister at the airport was their last encounter.

And she never wished of her sister disappearing from her sight for good.

Yes, she wished her gone, but… it was only temporary. Roxy never wanted to kill her sister nor remove her from this world.

Roxy wants her sister to come back to South America, and she's even been planning entertaining things to make up for her selfishness.

But… her sister had left… with a gloomy and disappointed face… disappointed in her.

The day she heard Roxanne's name… her sister, was killed in a plane crash was the day someone snatched the source of her happy dreams.

It felt like she had been washed away by the wave and drown to the bottom of the sea.

Roxy couldn't think as if her brain had stopped functioning and died. She was no longer interested in attending the handsome mister because her heart was too mourning for her loss.

She shut herself in her uncle's house without much to say or eat. Every time she ate, she would vomit it back, but the tears never came out of her eyes.

For some reason… she couldn't shed a tear hearing the death of her only sister even though her heart was bellowing.
