Your Turn to Chase Me, Reborn For Revenge-Chapter 137 - Sorry
Chapter 137 - Sorry
Currently, in the Green house, Martin was getting ready to leave his house to see his daughter, he was nervous and he wasn't sure why, he was slightly shaky and he was sweating.
He had changed a total of six times already and he had settled on a suit that Kathleen used to like him to wear. It was a dark blue suit with a grey shirt.
Although he was older in years he still maintained his figure and since he had stopped taking the herbal tablets Rachel was giving him he had more energy and he had seemed to have found a lost part of himself he didn't know that he had lost.
Martin was about to leave his bedroom when he stopped and returned to his closet. Inside his closet he had a safe hidden behind one of Kathleen's paintings. He smiled at the painting before going into the safe and retrieving what he needed and placing it safely into his breast pocket.
He then locked the safe and walked out of his closet only to find his door handle being roughly pulled on. He sighed and approached his door. He unlocked it and opened it to find Rachel standing on the other side.
He took in her appearance; she wasn't wearing her usual clothes and she too had changed. She was now wearing a yellow fitted dress with a blazer and white pumps. He cringed inwardly at her, yes she looked good for her age but he thought that she didn't dress well for a lady of her age.
Now seeing his daughter flourish he saw Kathleen so much in her that it brought back so many memories that he tried to bury due to his grief. As he allowed his memories to return he started to think about his choices and how in his grief he had made so many mistakes especially when it came to April.
He hoped that he had time to redeem himself and that April would kindly let him back into her life. Could they start anew? He held hope in his heart.
He didn't give Rachel the time of day to speak he just locked his door behind him and walked down the hall where he saw Lucy smiling at him, she had her hands behind her back, giving him the sweet and innocent vibes.
Martin just kept walking, he knew their intentions. Behind every smile of theirs was a malicious thought and greed.
Rachel had already thrown a tantrum after the phone call between himself and Joseph. Martin let her throw a fit and she did. She yelled and threw things. She felt disrespected by Joseph and she was but Martin no longer cared.
He wanted to be rid of them both, but he had created his own misery. Somewhere in his heart, he waited for April to accept him back into her life and he had hoped she would. If she didn't then he would live this miserable life with Rachel and Lucy. After all, it's what he thought he deserved.
As he walked down the stairs he heard Rachel yelling again and stomping her feet in his direction. He continued not to care for her dramatics.
"Wait right there! Where are you going? If you are going to the Davis Manor you must take us with you! Lucy and Dean are great friends if you don't take us with you he won't be happy." Rachel shouted. 𝑓𝒓𝚎e𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯𝘰𝐯𝒆𝑙.c𝚘m
Martin saw Tom at the bottom of the stairs and he smiled and said, "Are you ready?"
"Sir?" Tom replied he didn't know what Martin meant. Seeing him walk towards the front door Tom picked out a coat and scarf for Tom. It was Autumn and it was getting colder now.
Martin genuinely smiled and said, "We are going to meet our in-laws. April is cooking and I am sure she will want to see you." Martin took his coat and put it on before taking a coat out for Tom and handing it to him.
Tom was taken aback and stood stunned for a while before taking the coat that Martin was handing to him. He nodded and put on his coat. They both ignored the two women who were stomping their way towards them.
Rachel reached the two men and reached her hand up, she was about to strike Martin when Tom grabbed her hand stopping her instantly before throwing her hand away.
"How dare you touch me! You are just a butler! Do not get above your station!" Rachel screamed at Tom. She was angry that they had both ignored her, Martin usually gave in to her so he could have an easy life but right now she couldn't get through to him and it frustrated her so much that she had lifted her hand to hit him in anger.
Lucy stood behind her mum she didnt know what to do, they had to go to the Davis Manor but her mum's usual tantrum wasn't working with Martin.
Tom then turned to Martin ignoring Rachel and Lucy, "I will bring the car around."
"No, no let's go to the garage together." Martin was surprised at Rachel she had never tried to hit him before he was grateful to Tom for his swift rescue.
He had never been in a fight before and had never been hit, he didnt want this to continue. He had to prove himself to April, today he couldn't mess this up.
Martin and Tom left the house and walked towards the garage.
"Im sorry," Martin said turning to Tom, he really was. He had allowed his grief to take over him. He lost part of himself when he lost Kathleen and so he had been existing not living. He felt bad for all the years he had ignored the things that were going on in his own house.
It caught Tom off guard and he stopped walking, he then continued to walk beside Martin and smiled.. "It's okay sir we still have time."
