DIRTY LOVE (JADINE COMPLETE STORY)

DIRTY17

NADINE knew that since she met James, her life was full of lies. From the moment she introduced him to Mrs.Hailey until today, she had been living to deceive people around her. If one day the secret of their fake marriage was leaked out, she could imagine how hurt and sad Mrs.Hailey would be. She could feel it because she was experiencing it.

The painful throbs on her temples became severe as she no longer could hear about James's lies from his brother. She didn't know why she must feel upset to discover about his real identity and she gazed downward to hide her teary-eyed.

Her chest became tight until she couldn't even breathed properly. Everything that James had told her since they met were all lies except about his mother. The story about his dead father and family background were faked.

He had a father, a brother, yet he told her that he had no one left in this world. Nadine really didn't understand why he must deceived people around him about his family. While she was thinking the reason of his action, James was only silent next to her.

"At first, I thought that you kept delaying to return home because of your secret marriage, but I was wrong. You actually are afraid that she will discover who you are. James, I can't believe that you hide this from your wife," Tom said in regret. He actually didn't know about James's marriage until he asked his people to eye his brother.

"Didn't I tell you that I will return home soon? I only asked you to give me little more time, is that too hard for you to do so?" although his tone was calm, it was obvious that James was trying to suppress his anger toward Tom.

"But how long I've to wait for you, James? Wasn't a year that I'd given you still not enough for you to make the decision? I've waited you enough and I'm tired to ask you to return home. Dad is sick and you know well that Mr.Andrew and his people are trying to chase us out from our own hotel. I terribly need your support, for I can't save the hotel alone," he burst out in upset, which made James dropped his face in guilt.

He knew that for the past few years, he had left all the responsibilities to Tom's shoulders and ran away from home. Tom said nothing but comforting him, saying that if leaving home was the only way to cure his wounded heart, then he would wait for James to return to his side. Tom promised that he wouldn't find him but not ended their relationship.

For two years they only kept in touch through phone until last year, he broke the promise because of their father's health condition. Tom searched him and pleaded him to return to hotel, but he wasn't ready to become Reid again.

"Please, James. I need you. Plus, Dad's condition is worsening. I afraid that you will have no more chance to meet him if you refuse to come home now," he added in persuasive tone. Nadine had heard enough, and she needed the time to accept all these hurtful lies.

"I can't take it anymore!" she went away with teary-eyed and when James was about to follow her, Tom spoke again.

"I know my sudden visit have troubled your marriage but for the sake of our family and Sky World, I beg you to forget what Dad had said to you. You do know how meaningful that hotel to Dad and late Mom, don't you?" the moment he mentioned about their father, James's heart shattered into pieces again.

If that plea came out from his father's mouth, how blissful James would be if it truly happened. He spoke nothing and left Tom alone to search for his wife. James knew that it must hard for Nadine to accept this because it happened so sudden, but he was also having a hard time today.

He entered her room and saw she was sitting on bed side with dropping head. Her reaction obviously reflected the emotion inside her; hurt, confuse, anger, and disappointment.
