Trapped I can't escape from the Billionaire
Chapter 272

Marco then looked in Letta's direction as she emerged from Freya's room. After that, he walked closer.

"Has Freya fallen asleep?" Marco asked, making Letta nod. Letta then sat not far from Marco's position. Letta didn't know if the decision she made was right in giving Marco a chance. However, as stated by Abian and her own intuition, she felt the need to give herself a chance as well, not solely for Marco's sake.

Letta wanted to experience whether she would truly be happy if she welcomed Marco back into her life. Letta was slightly taken aback when Marco reached out his hand and gently stroked her cheek.

"What are you thinking?" Marco asked, eliciting a warm gaze from Letta in response.

"Nothing, just thinking. Until when will you continue to stay here and sleep in the car?" Letta said, because all this time Letta actually knew that Marco didn't sleep in the hotel prepared by Pedro. Instead of sleeping comfortably, Marco always slept in his car, whether in his driveway or on the side of the road not far from his house.

"Until you and Freya are willing to come back with me," Marco said, making Letta fall silent, then shaking her head.

"I don't know. Can I leave my life here for the past 2 years?" Letta replied, causing Marco to tightly grip Letta's hand.

"You don't have to leave it. We can have someone take care of this plantation and the simple house. And when we have free time, we can come here for vacation. Besides, isn't Freya old enough to go to school now? We can't just keep letting Freya stay here, can we? I know the distance to the school from here is quite far and it will surely consume your time. I also don't intend to leave you all in this small place," Marco said, causing Letta to ponder. They did live far from the hustle and bustle, requiring time to go to school and other places. And as Freya grew older, she would certainly need expenses and time that would be taken away from Letta.

"I don't know either. I still don't know what I should do right now," Letta replied. Marco then approached, pulling Letta and embracing her, stroking the back of the woman who was still his wife.

"Just trust everything to me, you just need to rely on me for now, and I will handle everything. Didn't you promise to give me a chance?" Marco said, making Letta nod. However, for some reason, even though Letta had given him that chance, it didn't mean her heart felt completely at ease.

"What would your parents say if I brought Freya back?" Letta asked. All this time, Marco had never even mentioned his parents. Perhaps they already hated Letta, or whatever they had done made Letta reluctant to replace out the truth.

"They will just follow what I want. Besides, Iam not a little child that they have to constantly manage. They trust that the life of my family, I will live it and do my best for my family. And another thing, it seems they will be happy to meet Freya again. Right now, they must be missing their grandchild," Marco said, making Letta also unsure of what kind of gaze they would give when they saw Freya. Although Letta had no doubt, because Freya was so similar to Marco, there was no reason for them to think otherwise.

"So, what do you think?" Marco asked again, making Letta shake her head. Marco then stroked Letta's cheek, stopping at the corner of his wife's lips, where a while ago Marco finally got to feel again how sweet Letta's lips, which he had longed for, were. Although he couldn't kill the longing that he had harbored for years.

"Ihave to think about it, I also have to talk to Freya about us. Although she is a smart child, our life is too heavy for Freya to digest, especially when she knows that you are the stranger who saved her life. I have to replace a way to tell her properly," Letta said, making Marco nod.

"Yes, I trust you. You will definitely say whatever is best for Freya. I won't pressure you, I will wait for you here," Marco said, making Letta finally nod. Letta believed that Marco would not drag her back to their big house at this moment. Besides, Letta still couldn't leave behind what she had built over the past two years, which had also saved her and Freya's life.

They fell silent for a moment, until they finally looked at the clock, where it was time for them to rest. And tonight, Letta couldn't let Marco sleep outside after what they had done a while ago. It felt too cruel to leave the father of the child she had accepted curled up in the car in this freezing air.

"For tonight, sleep here. I don't have another room, but you can sleep on the sofa. I will get you a blanket and a pillow," Letta said, making Marco smile. But when Letta was about to get up from her seat, suddenly Marco held Letta's wrist, making Letta look at him.

"Why?" Letta asked, looking at Marco questioningly.

"Can you sit with me for a little longer? I still want to see your face and talk about you two," Marco said, leaving Letta silent.

"But, you've been working hard in my vineyard since this morning. You must want to rest, you must be tired, right?" Letta said, making Marco shake his head.

"Not at all. Trust me, do I complain about fatigue or anything else?" Marco asked, leaving Letta speechless. Of course, Marco didn't complain or anything. But still, his new job of picking grapes was definitely not easy for Marco, who had been accustomed to sitting quietly in his grand chair all this time. While Letta had become used to it over the past two years. So maybe, according to Letta, Marco needed to rest at this time. But it seemed to contradict what Marco wanted at the moment, making Letta finally heave a long sigh and sit back next to Marco.

"I want to hear the story about you," Marco said, although he broadly knew what had actually happened to Letta from the information Pedro had obtained. But still, Marco wanted to hear it directly from Letta.

"That means I have to remember my difficult past, when I first left you," Letta said, making Marco fall silent.

"Actually, I don't want to dig it up again. I also don't want you to relive the cruelty I have done. I don't know why, I always feel like I want to know anything that happened to you, especially about our child," Marco said, making Letta finally fall silent while looking at her palm, now held in Marco's warm, tight grasp, as if Marco was asking Letta to rely on and trust him.

"I asked Abian for help to leave that big house. At first, I didn't ask Abian to stay by my side. I just asked to be taken to a distant house, where I could take care of my child properly. And that's when Abian brought me here. He introduced me to Rose, but I didn't expect that Abian really lived here. Although at that time, I knew he had an attractive offer from several companies that would employ him," Letta said, making Marco understand why Abian took that reason, how the man still harbored hope for Letta.

"I also couldn't force Abian to stay away from me at that time. I just let Abian do whatever he wanted to do, and at that time, for some reason, I started to rely on Abian during my difficult times. Until eventually. At that time, I wasn't sure if I could be a good mother after I separated my own child from her father. But that was all I could think of. I didn't know if I could be a good mother while still harboring the pain you inflicted. That's why I chose to forget everything by leaving you. I also didn't want Freya to grow up with a mother who couldn't give her love wholeheartedly and sincerely. The only way I could forget everything was by leaving you, because I wanted to take care of Freya properly," Letta said, making Marco fall silent, as if feeling how difficult it was for Letta at that time to first part from him, causing her life to crumble and fall apart.

"At that time, I also began to build my current business, planting grapes, seeking relationships, replaceing people who were willing to work together to manage my grapes. And Abian and Rose helped me. I was lucky that Abian had an acquaintance like Rose who helped me take care of Freya. It was also Rose who helped and taught me how to take care of Freya, as this was my first time. I am grateful. Although there aren't too many people around me, having them is enough for me. That's why Iam happy, even though it's far from the hustle and bustle, at least this environment is safe," Letta explained again. That's why it was difficult for Marco to replace Letta at that time, because this small town was truly untouched by his reach. It took Pedro years to finally replace Letta's trace. In the end, Marco pulled Letta back into his embrace.

"Even for me, listening to it was very difficult to accept everything, especially with you. I was truly the cruelest man in this world. Forgive me," Marco said sincerely, making Letta only able to return the embrace from her husband. Letta also didn't want to dwell on all her pain, but at least Marco had to know the struggles she and Freya had faced at that time, how they had navigated life from the beginning together with Freya.
