Chapter 57 - I Will Not Let Go Of Him!
"Mmmm... This is so tasty." Valentina said making Margaret chuckle.
"Yes, it's so tasty." Elijah replied as they all started having their dinner.
"Yeah..." Valentina said as she nodded her head at Elijah.
"So... What are the plans?" Elijah asked and Valentina shrugged.
"I don't know..." Valentina answered making Margaret smile.
Jason raised his eyebrows at Margaret as she smiles.
"But I think, something is going on mom's head," Jason said making Elijah turn towards her.
"True... Something sure is going on in her head." Elijah replied making Margaret chuckle.
"Nothing... Have your dinner first." Margaret said making them raise their eyebrows.
"Alright... Well, Valentina... I shouldn't ask this but... Heard Xavier got married?" Elijah asked making her take a deep breath.
"Yes, Uncle Elijah." Valentina answered.
"But... He loves you right?" Elijah asked.
"Dad..." Jason said making Valentina look at him!
"No... He has every right to know about us, Jason." Valentina replied making Jason sigh.
"But, Val... Not now..." Valentina cut off Jason in mid-sentence as she shook her head.
"It's fine... I am okay to talk to him about this anytime." Valentina said making Jason sigh.
"Fine... It's your wish then... I am no one to say you do not talk about it." Jason replied as he took a deep breath.
"Jason... Why are you irritated about it when Val isn't? We want to know what's going on him her life too? She is like a daughter to us too." Elijah said and Jason nodded his head.
"Dad... I know that. I know you both want to know what is going on in her little and how is she handling all these things suddenly on her own. I know she is like a daughter to you and wants only best for her but nothing else... I understand everything but she just got here after all their chaos happens in her life... Have some mercy on her. She needs to let the things go for a few days. She needs to breathe and takes a fresh air. This is important for her. Her health is not good too and in this situation, if you are asking about this then I don't know what to tell you about this." Jason replied making Valentina roll her eyes.
"Jason, I am not understanding why are you thinking about all these things? You know that I will not cry over on these things because I know, Xavier will be mine sooner or later... That is for sure. It just a matter of time. I don't know why he married Rose but I am sure that he still loves me and don't want to let go of me... He is scared of something... But, I will find it out and will make things right... I will make Xavier mine. And Aunt Margaret and Uncle Elijah are so close to me and I want to share everything with them and they have that right to know about me. And I am not going to let go of anything even though wherever I go... And I am perfectly alright... My health is totally fine." Valentina said making everyone look at her. Valentina chuckled as she saw everyone's mouth open.
"Hello... What happened?" Valentina asked making them shook their heads.
"So... You are not getting Xavier go?" Elijah asked and Valentina shook her head in no.
"No. I am not letting him go, Uncle Elijah." Valentina answered.
"No matter what?" Elijah asked and Valentina raised her eyebrows at him.
"Yes, no matter what I am not letting him go!" Valentina answered making Margaret look at Elijah.
"Even though you get to know the deep truth behind the marriage... Which might hurt you later?" Elijah asked making Valentina and Jason frown.
"Elijah..." Margaret called but he just kept starting into Valentina's eyes.
"What do you mean, Uncle Elijah?" Valentina asked and Elijah shook his head.
"I am just asking you, Valentina... What if there is something deep truth behind the marriage which might hurt you in the future? Will you still hold on to him?" Elijah asked.
"Elijah, stop... Don't scare her with your stupid questions." Margaret said making Elijah looked at her seriously.
"I am just stating a fact, Love. She needs to know about how cruel this world is... She will know it soon though but I am just giving her heads up." Elijah replied.
"Dad... Can you please let go of this?" Jason asked making Elijah chuckle.
"First, let her answer this question, Jason..." Elijah answered and looked at Valentina who looks so deeply in her thoughts.
"But, Dad..." Elijah cut off Jason in mid-sentence.
"Jason... I hope you keep your mouth shut in this. Let Valentina answer the question. You don't have any right to interfere in this." Elijah said sternly making Jason sigh.
"Val... Answer the question, please. I just want to know about your thoughts." Elijah said and Valentina looked up at him.
"I will not, Uncle Elijah." Valentina answered with confidence and without any hesitation.
Elijah nodded his head and looked at Valentina.
"Why?" Elijah asked.
"I believe that Xavier will not do something which might hurt me." Valentina answered.
"What if you are wrong?" Elijah asked.
"Elijah, I said stop now. Don't you dare cross your line now." Margaret said making Elijah sigh.
"It's fine, Aunt Margaret..." Valentine said and turned her head towards Elijah.
"It will not, uncle Elijah... Yes, at one thing... Xavier hurts me... That is marrying another woman and giving her the place which I deserve. At that thing, he broke his words which he promises me but that thing never happened..." Valentina said and Margaret sighed.
"I was hurt for sure but later... He came to me and said that he loves me... I thought to make his life a living hell but... When he said, he still loves me and things changed and made him Marry Rose... I thought, is our love not strong enough? I questioned myself but I didn't get any answer... Maybe... I want to be selfish to get his life in any way no matter what... Well... Might be! Because he was the only person who understands me in my whole life." Valentina said with a. Smile playing on her lips making Jason eyes teary.
"He is the most precious person in my life... He is the best thing which ever happened to me in my whole life even when I used to be a bitch... He still loved me as I am! He doesn't care if I am a bitch, a slut or a whore or whatever... He loves me as I am." Valentina said.
"Maybe... That's why I don't want to stop loving him right now... I can't leave him when he needs me the most." Valentina said making Elijah sigh.
"You are really so beautiful, Valentina." Elijah said making Valentina chuckle.
"I am not, Uncle Elijah... Believe me, I am not." Valentina replied making Elijah shook his head at her.
"Don't forget that this Uncle Elijah will be there for you no matter what." Elijah said and Valentina nodded her head with a smile.
"I will not, Uncle Elijah." Valentina replied with a smile.
They all had their dinner and walked towards the living room where Valentina saw a few old photo albums on the table.
"Oh my goodness... Who's this?" Valentina asked.
"Jason's..." Margaret answered making Jason wide his eyes.
"What? Mine?" Jason asked and Margaret nodded her head.
"Yes, yours..." Elijah answered.
"Why, mine?" Jason asked.
"We want to show Valentina the little Jason." Margaret answered.
"What, no!" Jason replied as he tried to take that album away but Valentina's one look made him stop.
"Fine..." Jason said making Margaret and Elijah laugh out loud and Valentina sat down on the couch and others settled beside her on the couch.
"Oh my... Is this cute little baby is Jason?" Valentina asked.
"Yes... Yes... I always wanted a girl child but I only had Jason... So, I tried that cute little dress on Jason... He becomes a cute little girl." Margaret answered making Valentina and Elijah laugh out loud making Jason groan.
"Are you serious, Mom? Only you do like this." Jason replied as he rolled his eyes making them all laugh out loud.
"Well... I can't help it... You looked like a cute little girl." Margaret said making Jason again roll his eyes.
"Yes, you look so cute." Valentina said as she laughed out loud.
"Seriously, Val... Give me all this now!" Jason replied as he took away all those albums away from her.
"Hey, you... Give them back to me... Let me see them." Valentina said and Jason shook his head in no and walked away from her but Valentina ran towards him and seeing her, Jason ran upstairs.
"I am not giving them to you..." Jason replied as he ran inside his bedroom and Valentina followed him.
"No... Give me, please... You are really so cute." Valentina said and Jason shook his head in no.
"No... I am not giving you." Jason replied as he kept them behind his back.
