Summer Frost POV

A few minutes ago, the door hard opened without a knock, and my heart missed a beat when I looked up and saw that the person was Mr. Miller.

I watched as he sat on the sofa in the ward, glaring hard at me like his life depended on it. The look on his face was that of someone who had a lot on his mind, but for five minutes, he has remained silent and not even a single word since he came inside.

“Why have you been ignoring my texts and calls?” I could not believe my ears. How could that be the first thing he asked me? I was hospitalised for f** k ‘s sake, so the least he could do even if he didn’t care about me was to ask about my health, right? At least that’s what every normal human being would

do.

“Did you come here to ask me that?” I had open my mouth to ask him that, but I swallowed the words and bit my lip.

“I’m sorry,” I could only lower my gaze and apologize even though I didn’t do anything wrong to him.

“Why were you not careful? You are getting engaged soon, how could you fall ill?” My heart was crushed by the next words that came out of his mouth, but sadly, I could not complain or talk back at him even though i desperately wanted to.

“I’m sorry,” Again, I apologized like the loser that I was. I could not have bring myself to talk back at him, right?

“Mrs. Moore is still angry. You should get your s h i t s together and apologize to her as soon as you get out of here. I can’t afford to lose everything now. I’ve worked hard for this for years,” He didn’t have to make it so obvious that I was just his pawn, but he did, anyway.

“Why?” I raised my gaze to look at him.

“Why should I apologize to her when I did nothing wrong?” I could bear everything, but not this. I could take blames for things I didn’t do, but apologizing to that woman was the last thing I would ever do.

“You insulted her. Isn’t that enough reason?” He gazed into my eyes coldly, and I exhaled sharply.

“Dad… You were there when she was bullying me—‘

H

“Bully? Was that the first time you were getting bullied? That b a t a r d’ s family did the same to you. His Mom did worse but you never fought back. You always sat back and cry, so why can’t you do that now?” My heart flustered painfully and tears brimmed in my eyes as I stared back at him unbelievably.

“What will it take you to sit back and watch? You don’t always defend yourself, Summer—”

“What’s so wrong in trying to defend myself? The fact that I sat back and watch them do that to me years ago didn’t mean that I should do the same thing now. Why are you doing this, Dad? Why are you treating me this way?” Tears finally poured down my cheeks when I could not hold it back anymore.

“I didn’t come here to hear you whine and watch you shed tears, Summer…” He paused, then stood up and exhaled deeply.

“Get out of here soon and do the right thing,” He turned to leave.

“Even if you were always out to use me from the onset… Must you make it this obvious?” He paused.

“If you were going to treat me this way, why didn’t you just leave me to my fate then? Why did you bring me here to treat me like this?” The pain I passed through that night was almost nothing compared to the one I’ve been feeling since these last few days. I would’ve been forgotten by now if he had just allowed me to die then. It would’ve all been over by now.

“You should be grateful,” Those were his words before he finally exited the room, and slammed the door hard behind him.

I tried to hold myself together, but it as difficult to. No matter how hard I tried to, it was just so difficult to do it.

1 buried my face between my palms as I let my tears out freely. I wanted nothing more than to disappear to a far away place where this man will never be able to reach me, but sadly, I could not. It would be over for me if I did that, and I have come far to end my career like this. Yes, he spent all the money, but I invested my intelligence and time into it. It has become my passion that I could not just throw these years of it away like it never happened.

“Just hang in there, Summer. Hang in there, and everything will be fine,” I told myself though I knew things might never get better. All I had to do was keep my hope high, and who knows, I might replace a way out this mess I was in.

The door opened, and I quickly wiped my tears before looking in the direction to replace Xander.

“Are you ok? Were you crying?” He hurried over to sit with me on the bed, examining me with his eyes.

“N…no… I wasn’t crying. Why would I cry?” I scoffed nervously as I cleaned my face.

“You don’t look fine. Did something happen while I was away? Talk to me,” He cupped my cheek in his palm while looking into my eyes.

“Nothing happened,” Slowly, I shook my head.

“Are you sure?” His voice came out in a hush, and when I nodded, he pulled me into his arms.

“Everything will be fine,” I didn’t know what made him say that, whether he had suspected something, but that made me feel better. I really needed to

hear that.

We were still in eachother arms when I heard the door open.

“We finally meet,” My jaw dropped to the ground when I looked over to the door and realized that it was Dad. He didn’t leave?
