The Lies He Told Me 154

    Antonio didn''t call me again until I got back to New York after the surgery. He seemed to think I said that in a fit of pique..


    He sent several posts on Instagram, featuring he took Roxanne to try on wedding dresses, take wedding photos, and even choose gifts.


    I ignored all his posts, went back to the station, and applied to the geological survey research team that was going to shoot a documentary on Antarctica.


    Also, I reported to the news channel the documents that the vige chief had slipped into my bag when he took me to the hospital that day.


    When I learned the truth about the tornado, thest trace of my love for Antonio was reced by disgust.


    After all this, I went back to the small apartment I had lived in after graduation.


    I packed up all the cheap, crappy gifts Antonio had given me over the past fifteen years.


    Then I sent them to the wedding along with the divorce papers and a DVD containing the information about the school for Inte addiction I had researched over the years.


    Levi was very young when he was sent to that school. Suffering from PTSD from being tortured, he had forgotten everything.


    Over the years, I didn''t bring anything up as I didn''t want him to relive the pain.


    Yet now as I thought about it, maybe I was wrong.


    Before boarding, I blocked all Antonio and Levi''s contact information. Then I pulled out the SIM card, broke it, and threw it in the trash.


    From now on, I had nothing to do with these jerks.


    At the wedding, Antonio felt uneasy for some reason.


    He figured it was probably because of Roxanne''s condition.


    She had terminal lung cancer.


    It suffocated him to think such a harmless, sweet girl would die soon.


    He wondered more than once why it wasn''t Grace who had it.


    Grace was so vicious; she deserved this.


    And Levi shared the same thought, saying from time to time, "Roxanne is perfect. How I wish it were that bitch Grace who''s dying!"


    At this thought, Antonio was even more pissed off at Grace.


    "The wedding is about to start. Where is Grace? She thinks she can act however she wants just because she''s pregnant?" he thought.


    Then he dialed Grace''s number, which he had not called


    for a long time, only to find his number had been blocked.


    Seeing that, Levi tried calling Grace and realized his number had been. blocked, too.


    "She''s crazy!"


    Cursing, Levi started to contact others who knew Grace.


    Meanwhile, Antonioined in a deep voice. "I married Grace only to


    fulfill Roxanne''s dream.


    "I already made the biggest


    emise by agreeing to et


    she actually dares


    ? When I find her, I''ll


    "Excuse me. Are you Mr. Parrish and Mr. Kaufman?"


    A deliveryman''s voice suddenly rang out.


    "This is an express from Miss Parrish. Please sign for it."


    After signing, Antonio opened the package. The first thing he saw was a divorce agreement.


    Sneering, he didn''t take it seriously at all and tossed it to the floor..


    Yet in the next second, he was stunned as he saw the abortion report under the agreement.


    "No way."


    He was both startled and


    incredulous. Perhaps toforte


    ous. Perhaps toet


    he forced himself to


    small wooden box in the package.


    Seeing what was inside, he froze.


    Lying there was the tiny, crouching bones of a baby.


    His pupils shrank as the box slipped out of his hand and fell to the floor.


    Levi''s expression changed, too. Yet unlike Antonio, who was lost in a trance, he was angry.


    "Damned Grace! It''s a


    big day today, but she just won''t give up any chance of annoying us! What a bitch..."


    "Oh, one more thing. Miss Parrish specifically asked me to tell you that


    the DVD in the box would tell you the truth about the past."


    The deliveryman left, his face calm.


    Antonio was still in a daze and didn''t catch the deliveryman''s words.


    Levi, however, sneered and then threw the box in a cleaning cart beside him.


    "What trick is she ying this time?"


    Then he pulled Antonio, who was still lost in thought, and gave him a wink. "Antonio, since Grace won''t show up, why don''t you marry Roxanne today?? "You love her, and the wedding dress and ring were designed in her size, right?"


    Hearing Roxanne''s name, Antonio finally snapped back to reality.


    He forced a smile and nodded, no longer looking at the box.


    Following Levi, he went to the hotel room where Roxanne stayed.


    Before this, Levi suggested that he buy a bouquet of


    is Levi suggested that he


    give


    Roxanne a surprise.
