Chapter 91

The guest sent the newlyweds off on their one-month honeymoon trip to Scotland. It turned out that Peter’s grandfather was from Scotland and owned a plantation and castle there. He had willed it over to Peter after his death. Camila was so excited when she shared the news with her last night at her bachelorette party.

Fiona waved at them, knowing a lot was about to unfold for her.

She didn’t bother telling Camila about the sudden appearance and disappearance of Julian; the last thing she wanted was to become the main character on Camila’s wedding day. So, she said nothing, and when it was time to leave, she kissed Camila and wished her only the best.

“Are you okay?” She heard Cillian’s voice from behind her, and he came to wrap his arms around her waist.

She eased into his hold and sighed. With Julian’s appearance, she knew okay was far from her list of words. She would never be okay; she would never have a calm and normal life.

Yes, he had disappeared without a trace hours ago, but she knew what she saw; she knew reality from imagination, just as she knew night from day. It was him, and his presence didn’t bring her any comfort.

She wondered why he was back-why now?

What did he want? It was certainly not her. He sent her here because he believed his wh ore over her.

He sent her here because he was tired of her and needed a way out. He sent her away so he could be with his wh ore.

She smiled up at him and said, “I’ll be fine.”

Cillian offered to take her home, and she accepted. She was too exhausted and consumed with thoughts to think or do anything on her own.

He drove them off from the Rose Garden venue and back home. He turned off the car when they arrived at the door of her house, but they stayed in the car silently.

“Are you okay?” he asked again, and this time she didn’t give any smart answers.

“I don’t know.” This was the truth.

He nodded and didn’t push her to say anything else. “I will not ask you to invite me in. So, I would ask if you would rather spend the night at my place?”
