Chapter 419: Cruel Happiness
Chapter 419: Cruel Happiness
“I’m here, where’s mom?” Meanwhile, inside Sen. Meyer’s mansion, Trishia strode like she was going
to war.
She was very pissed with this old man and good thing she would have time to face him alone.
After Bill’s driver dropped her off in front of the mansion, Trishia went directly inside like she owned the
mansion and went to find her mother.
It’s been too long since she hadn’t seen her. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
The Senator said she was abroad but Trishia was doubtful about it.
This Senator was going to use her mom as a hostage so he could manipulate her again.
“Oh, you’re here?” The Senator was sitting on his working chair.
He put down some documents in his hand when he saw Trishia come in.
He grinned but then he frowned seeing Trishia was alone.
“Oh, where is your husband to be?” He asked mockingly. “Don’t tell me he got his memory back then
back out? Hehehe…” The Senators’ words were not pleasing to Trishia’s ears.
She gritted her teeth in annoyance and clenched her fists hard.
If only she was not in the Senator’s territory, maybe she hit this old dirty man already.
She had been wanting to hurt him since he appeared in the hospital and blackmailed her in front of Bill
Sky.
“Do you think it’s funny?” Trishia sounded impatient as she rolled her eyes at the old man.
“Hah! Of course… Come on, Trishia! You can fool everyone but not me! So don’t act too arrogant in
front of me because you are nothing. You are just good at tricking that stupid Bill Sky. Hahahha…” Sen.
Meyer sounded agitated but then he laughed again trying to show Trishia that she had nothing to brag
about him. “If that Bill Sky had not lost his memories, don’t you think he will marry you? Huh! So don’t
ever, ever come here again wearing that arrogant face of yours because you are still nothing Trishia.
You are nothing!" Sen. Meyer added shouting at Trishia angrily as if she offended him too much.
“Huh!” Trishia smiled bitterly. “I am nothing because a man like you could not accept someone would
just pass you to the top.” Trishia grinned while she sounded. “A lousy man like you could not accept
that you had to cling to me once again to get what you wanted.” Trishia was clenching her fists harder.
“Ha…ha…ha…” She couldn’t help laughing in front of him when the Senator threw his lampshade table
to her.
Suddenly, a loud shattering sound echoed inside the mansion.
Luckily, Trishia had dodged in time before the thing hit her.
She looked at the old Senator smiling. “Poor old man! You can’t even hit me with that! You missed
again!” Trishia sounded chuckling. Obviously, she was provoking him. “Look! Things have changed
here. I am not your little girl that could be easily manipulated and punished anytime you want. Listen
carefully, old man because I am not going to repeat this to you. I am going to be Trishia Sky tomorrow,
the only legal wife of Bill Sky. Hit me again and my mom and I swear that you will regret it till your next
life! Do you understand old man?” Trishia warned him seriously with her eyeballs bulging at Sen.
Meyer.
Her warning seemed to be effective as Sen. Meyer’s expression changed. Trishia smirked satisfied
with him.
“So? Where’s mom?” She asked with her brow curled upward getting the advantage of the situation.
“Your mom… that woman… same useless as you,” This time, the Senator’s voice was normal but his
tone was complaining and disappointed.
“Yeah, maybe… we are the same because we don’t settle for anything less like you.” Trishia was really
up for combat with the Senator.
This was the only thing she could revenge herself for now.
After hearing her, the Senator jolted for a while then, “Get out!!!” He shouted angrily.
All the things on his table scattered on the floor after he wiped them all.
His anger was like up to the sky.
His expression was flushed and his eyes could kill her if she was not going to leave immediately.
Another shattered piece echoed in the mansion.
Trishia had no time to stay there if she wanted to go out there alive tonight.
The Senator had gone mad after hearing about her mother.
Until now, it was obvious that the Senator could still not accept that her mother had affair with another
man.
The Senator could still not accept that her mother loved someone else and not him even though he
tried so hard to get her heart.
To the point that he accepted her child from another man.
Senator Meyer raised Trishia and gave her his family name looking forward that someday, Alice would
feel something for him but it went all wrong.
His sacrifices and effort just went in vain.
Alice never loved him.
She was still in love with her old flame.
And now, Alice wanted to throw away just to be with this man.
Trishia went out hurriedly seeing the Senator was getting his gun from his drawer.
She banged the door closed and heaved a sigh.
She was very satisfied seeing him go mad because of her.
She felt she already got her revenge after what he did earlier.
Then she smirked with sparks in her eyes.
Remembering her mom, she quickly went up to the master bedroom. “Mom! Mom! It’s me! Are you
there? Answer me now!” The door was locked and all she could do was knocked repeatedly.
“Trishia… Trishia… is that you?” Alice answered shocked. Judging from her tone, she was in disbelief
that she could hear her daughter’s voice.
“Yes, mom. It’s me! Open the door now.” Trishia was satisfied hearing her mom and she quickly
ordered.
“I… I can’t,” Her mom replied with a gloomy tone.
“What? Why?” Trishia’s voice was alarmed.
“I’m…” Alice uttered like she was hesitant. It was obvious that she was thinking if she had to tell the
truth to her daughter or not. She had to be careful not to put Trishia in danger.
“Mom… what’s the matter? Open the door now,” Trishia felt something was off. Her mom seemed to
hide something from her.
“Hmmm… Trishia, I am okay. Is just that… I… I can’t open this door because I am sick...” Alice
coughed on the other side. “You see, I don’t want you to have it because it’s gonna be your wedding
tomorrow,” Alice added.
“But… I haven’t seen you for a long time, mom. I just want to see you and check if you’re okay.” Trishia
uttered worriedly.
“Nah… Listen to me, honey. I insist.” Alice was wiping her tears and secretly sobbing trying hard not to
be heard by her daughter behind the door.
Her face was still swollen because of Sen. Meyer.
Alice knew her daughter so much and she knew how Trishia would react to this.
She could not let her daughter be in danger.
“Let’s talk like this honey, can we?” Alice added while she sat on the floor leaning her head on the door.
Trishia knelt on the floor and touched the door.
“Are you really going to get married, honey?” Alice suddenly asked trying to confirm what she heard
from her wicked husband.
“Yes… mom.” Trishia couldn’t help but sit on the floor with her mini-dress.
She didn’t care about the servants around her.
It just felt so good talking to her mom once again after a long time.
Her mom was always her confidant and nobody else.
If she could think of one person that would not betray her, it was her mom.
“Are you happy?” After hearing Trishia’s response, Alice asked sincerely.
“Of course, mom. You know how much I love Bill, mom. And tomorrow, Oh gosh! I can’t wait for
tomorrow, mom! I am very happy right now.” Trishia blurted filled with excitement in her tone.
“But… what about him? Did he love you?” Alice asked like she was into something.
Her tone wasn’t happy for her daughter as she knew, Bill was not in love with Trishia.
Everybody knew for a fact that Trishia kept on forcing herself on him but got always rejected by Bill.
Since Alice was imprisoned in the mansion, she had no updates about her daughter’s whereabouts
and how she got into marriage with Bill Sky.
Trishia didn’t reply.
She seemed to be frozen outside.
“He is…” Trying to make herself believe with her own words, Trishia sounded.
Then she smiled bitterly and her eyes went bitter.
Good thing, her mom could not see her gloomy expression while trying to convince her that Bill was
madly in love with her now.
“Mom, Bill asked me for this marriage and I believe he will not do that if he didn’t love me, right?”
Trishia added to support her lies.
Hearing Trishia, Alice heaved a sigh deeply.
She knew her daughter was lying.
Trishia was obsessed with Bill Sky.
There must be something that made this wedding happen.
“Honey, I… I just don’t want you to get hurt. I don’t want you to be like me. Okay? If he didn’t love you,
stop forcing yourself on him. You are still young and you still have many chances to meet the person
who will love you genuinely, honey.” Alice just wanted to protect her daughter.
“Mom, please stop.” Trishia cut her off. She didn’t need to hear her mom opposing her marriage.
She already knew what her mom wanted to say to her but even her mom could not stop her wedding
tomorrow.
“I…” Trishia heaved a heavy sigh before she continued. “I will not be going to be like you, mom
because we loved each other.” Trishia was a bit pissed already. She stood up like she didn’t want to
continue their conversation. Lying and pretending were too hard when the other person knew all about
her. Trishia felt, she was just convincing herself and believed her own lies. “You may rest now, mom.
Make sure that you can attend my wedding tomorrow so you can see how happy we are and loved
each other.” Trishia added still in a convincing tone.
“I always wish you to be happy in the future my love,” Alice replied sincerely.
After hearing her mother, Trishia rested her forehead on the door’s surface.
She closed her eyes and opted not to reply to her mother anymore.
She wanted to wish herself happiness too but happiness for her was so cruel.
She just wanted to be happy too but she felt she had to work and capture it for herself otherwise, this
so-called happiness would not come to her.
She had to work for it hard and even she had to risk her life so many times just for this happiness to
land on her palms while Arabella had done nothing.
All she had to do was to sit and happiness would land on her.
What a cruel and unfair world.
Now that she had it in her hand, Trishia swore to hold it tightly and would never let it go.
After a while, dinner was served.
Sen. Meyer was sitting on the edge side of the long table as the host of the dinner.
Trishia was on the side.
They kept on staring and mocking each other while they were waiting for Bill Sky.
A deafening silence invaded the room.
Sen. Meyer was already drinking.
It seemed it was more fun for him than talking to Trishia.
Trishia was also drinking wine.
She kept on looking at her wristwatch as she could not afford to be mocked by this old man again if Bill
missed this dinner.
She didn’t want to see his wicked smile again and his eyes embarrassing her for being a loser and a
stupid one.
She was enough of his insulting words as all her life she was hearing all his abusive words.
Now that she was going to marry Bill Sky, she wanted to slap him with his abusive words.
She wanted to show him that she was not that stupid and useless.
She wanted to see the big remorse on his face.
All she wanted to hear from him now was praise.
After all, she did a good job.
The wall clock was ticking but still, Bill’s appearance was to no avail.
Trishia started to feel agitated and nervous.
She quickly called him but he wasn’t answering his phone.
Senator Meyer was looking at Trishia who was still trying to be cool in front of him.
He smirked at her and continued drinking.
This girl is still very arrogant and the Senator wanted to see where her arrogance would take her.
Trishia called again but Bill still didn’t answer.
She was already clenching her fists in annoyance.
“What? Are you being rejected again?” Sen. Meyer couldn’t help to mock her again.
His smile was insulting her again.
Trishia was controlling herself.
At this point, she wanted to get hysterical and mad.
She was angry with Bill for not answering his phone and he was already late for 15 minutes.
With the Senator, she felt suffocated and wanted to leave immediately but of course, she could not just
let the old man mock her again.
“You are too impatient, old man. Don’t forget that patience is a virtue.” Trishia drank her wine coolly in
front of the senator but she was already very pissed inside. “I know you want something big for this
marriage, so if I were you, you wait, okay?” They both understand what she was talking about.
Trishia still had to plan to eliminate him without putting her mother’s life at risk.
Before that time come, she had to put up with him.
The Senator just smirked at her, “If you say so, my dear. I just hope I’m not right.” He said with a
sarcastic voice then drank his whiskey again.
“I’m here,” Just after a few minutes, Bill appeared.
Sen. Meyer and Trishia quickly stood up to welcome the VIP guest but they both jolted seeing another
person beside Bill Sky.
"Arabella Jones?!"
