Chapter 5
882 Words
Valerio’s POV:
I was left all alone in the drawing room. I felt so awful for the things I had done. I just wanted to go back in time and stop myself from doing all those awful things to Vasilisa. I regretted everything I ever did to her.
If only I could go back in time.
I stayed in the drawing room for some more time, hoping that someone would come and let me explain. But no one came. Even if someone had come down, what would I possibly explain? Even I myself know that all my actions towards Vasilisa could not be reasoned.
What would I explain, when I know that all of this is my fault!!
If only, I would not have believed Lilian. If only I had let Vasilisa to explain herself. If only I was not stupidly blind to believed everything that Lilian said, I think right now I would have been living a happy life with Vasilisa.
I just sigh thinking about my actions, my horrible actions.
I try to blame Lilian saying that she lied and manipulated me. But I can not do that. Even if I am in this situation because of Lilian’s lies, I can not completely blame everything on her. I am equally at fault.
Lilian may have lied to me, but that does not mean I should have abuse Vasilisa. I should have let Vasilisa speak in the first place. If I had let her speak, I could have avoided all of this.
I am the sole reason for me being in this situation. Lilian is not the reason. That b***h only lied to my, but I, like a f*****g stupid i***t believed every single lie that came out of her f*****g mouth.
I did all those horrible things to Vasilisa because of my stupidity.
I should have known that Lilian was lying. I have noticed that she was nothing like Aeri had described her ‘Li’. Now I know why she was nothing like the ‘Li’ Aeri used to describe. She was never ‘Li’. She only stole the identity and lied about it.
She was always selfish and rude. Whenever we went out on dates, she belittled the people who served us. She never treated them right. I used to ignore that thinking that she had a rough day and think that others were wrong and only she was right.
How much more stupid can I be!!
Aeri used to say that, how much ever tired ‘Li’ was, she never showed that, and was always ready to help others. I did notice that in Vasilisa. Even after I had insulted her so much, even if my whole stuff in the office insulted her or belittled her, she never snapped back. She was so tolerant.
But I thought she was acting. I thought she was just putting up with this to trap me. But in reality, she never acted. She never wore a mask saying that she was innocent and sweet. She was indeed innocent and sweet. I was just blinded too by hatred.
Sometimes while seeing Vasilisa in her usual self with my sisters, I used to be in awe. I felt attracted towards her. Many times, I questioned myself if Vasilisa was really what Lilian had pictured her as? Then I used to brush it off saying Lilian would never lie to me.
If only I knew how much wrong I was.
Now as things get clear. Now as I know the truth, I can say that I was in love with Vasilisa all along. But my hatred and stupidity blinded me from my actual love and pushed her away from me. If I had not believed Lilian or had I let Vasilisa to explain things or had just asked Aeri to introduce me to Li, I would never have been in this situation but instead I would have been with Vasilisa. I would have been the happiest man on this earth.
But I destroyed all my good chances by stupidly believing Lilian.
I sigh at my thoughts.
As Lorenzo said, I am indeed a monster.
I tortured the person I loved. Even if I did not know that I loved her that time, I know now that I loved Vasilisa all along. I was just too blind to see it.
I, myself pushed my love away from me. I took everything away from her.
Will she forgive me?
Where is she?
Where could she possibly have gone?
I think about all these things and suddenly I remember something.
Vasilisa had once tried to escape from me. But unfortunately, I came to know about it and caught her before she could escape. She was trying to escape and go to Miami. I think she might have gone there!!
Maybe, she had someone that would help her over there.
I can find her there, I can find Vasilisa in Miami!!
I will find her and beg her for her forgiveness!!
I will beg her to give me another chance and do everything right!!
I will find Vasilisa and make everything right!!
I will go to Miami and get Vasilisa back and treat her like a queen this time!!
