Chapter 54 Kiss His Pain Away

• Isabella
• On the second day, Lance came to my room with a tray of food. He looked awful, his face was pale and puffy, and his shoulders were scrunched as he put the tray of food down on the bedside table. He didn't quite look at me as he sighed and turned around and walked out without even talking to me. I swallowed hard. He hates me now? Maybe he regrets his decision to elope with me. Does he blame himself for the cause of his brother’s death?
• I picked over the food and tried to eat something to stop the rumbling of my stomach but I had no appetite, I closed back the food and went to lay on the bed. My gaze stares at the blank air. I was rooted in that position for a long time, several thoughts grazing through my mind as time flew by and twilight slowly crept in.
