Punished by his love 14

Chapter 14 

Third person’s POV

After seven days in Northbeech, Ruben wanted to go home

The new year was around the corner. Lacey insisted on staying till after New Year’s Eve because there would be a celebration

Ruben subconsciously wanted to object

The school staff was on an annual leave, and his work for this year was done

But somehow, he felt he had left something behind on this trip

The past seven days seemed extremely long

He began making an excuse to go back

Before he could say anything, Mason spoke softly

If you like it here, we can come again next time

I have work to do at the company. We must go back.” 

Lacey was having a good time. Mason’s words upset her

You told Grace Parrish the other day that you had no work during New Year’s Day holidays!” 

Mason fell silent. He looked out the window, seemingly guilty

After a while, frowning, he tried to change the subject

I’ve told you many times not to refer to Grace by her full name. She’s your elder sister.” 

Lacey pursed her lips disdainfully. She dropped her new doll and ran away

Ruben looked at the bear on the ground

Inexplicably, it occurred to him it was Grace’s favorite when she was little

What was she like back then

Ruben tried to remember, but he couldn’t

There was only a vague scene where Grace was crying and shouting, asking Lacey to get out

When Grace grew up, she kept to herself

She barely talked to him and Mason and came home less and less, always telling them she was busy at school

Occasionally, Lacey broke Grace’s things

Grace would lose her temper. Then, she would calm down and say indifferently, Never mind.” 

Then, she lived in the dorm more and more often

Ruben ran into her on campus, sometimes

She was talking to her classmates cheerfully. But when she saw him, she became quiet and awkward

Ruben picked up the doll

He had the feeling that he had lost something

But when

When was the willful and spoiled Grace gone

Mason’s cold voice broke his train of thought

I’m going home tonight

Lacey wants to spend more time here. You can keep her company.” 

Ruben looked up abruptly. There seemed to be unease in Mason’s eyes

Ruben felt the same way

Almost by instinct, he said anxiously, I’m going back tonight, too.” 

Mason said no more and began packing

Their plane landed in Bluewell the next evening

On their journey back, Ruben’s eyelids jumped nonstop. He didn’t know why

Back home, he didn’t see Grace

The houseworker received them

Ruben handed his overcoat to her and asked with feigned carelessness, Isn’t Grace back yet?”
