Chapter 286

Lucky 286

'At first I want to teach her a lesson and turn her into a submissive woman like Esmeralda. I want her to reconcile with Nikki and understand that her daughter is suffering... But I was wrong, Laura is impossible to fix. Her hatred is too strong to disappear.'

Calix was talking to himself with a cold expression.

He strode out of the hotel with nothing but his boxer briefs. People began looking at him but Calix was too occupied. He left the woman crying at the door.

"Hey look at that?"

"Wow, is he a model?"

"I know right."

People were murmuring around him, his body was like a perfect sculpture. But Calix just walked ahead and reached the exit.

Calix learned a few things-- that there are broken people who are impossible to fix.

That's why Calix promised to himself.

"I'll never make any of them sad. I will make them happy for the best that I can."

He did not want to see any of the girls darkened like Laura. Especially Nikki, Calix was afraid that Nikki would be devastated once she learned the truth.

Sometimes Calix was asking himself if he did the right decision. What if he didn't accept Kimberly? What if he pulled the trigger and killed Yuna? What if he let Marianne be abducted by Leon?

What if...

Calix shook his head.

"I can't turn back the time, all I can do is make things right. No matter how much I fuck up, I will do my best to make it right."

Suddenly, he recalled his mother. Her warmth made him feel safe. He missed her, he felt grateful that she was his mother.

--Honk!

A taxi pulled over in front of him, and Calix entered.

"Take me to the National Memorial Cemetery."

His mother lies in the cemetery where soldiers and the soldiers' families could be buried. It was a privilege that only the soldiers and their families could have.

Right at the entrance of the cemetery, he found a store that was selling flowers. He recalled that his mother loved white roses.

He entered the cemetery and saw some people, they were here to visit their loved ones too.

After a few minutes of walking, Calix found his mother's grave. He kneeled and gently put the flowers on her grave.

"Mom, I'm 20 now. I'm sorry if I didn't visit you for five years. You see, a lot of stuff happened and I almost lost the will to live. Fortunately someone saved me and changed my life."

He started talking to the grave, he tried to recall everything that happened to him.

"Calix?"

"Huh? You--"

Calix turned around and his eyes trembled when he found Scarlett standing behind him. She was holding white roses too. Just like Calix, Scarlett was confused at first but she immediately remembered that she should be angry right now.

"Hmmph--!! W- what are you doing? This is public!"

Scarlett scoffed and turned around but she was surprised when arms wrapped around her and hugged her tightly.

Scared tried to break free. She should be angry right now! She did not hear a thing about him for a week. And now she found him in the cemetery!

Of course Scarlett had a reason to be angry. Added the fact that she learned that Calix and Athena had a relationship.

"Let go of me!"

"Please... Just give me a minute."

"... Calix?"

She realized that Calix was sad and down. She did not know what happened, but in the end, she decided to let him be.

Calix hugged her from behind. Scarlett was just there standing and accepting him. She put her hands on his hands and squeezed them affectionately.

"I'm here for you."

"I know. Thank you so much."

"I love you."

"I love you too."

These simple replies could make them happy. A simple 'I love you' could erase any depression. The fact that there was someone who loves you dearly, it was a blessing that was impossible to let go of.

Time passed and Calix made an awkward laugh.

"I can't believe that I did that."

"No, it's fine."

Scarlett's voice was sweet. She turned around and faced Calix. She could see from his face that he was gloomy. She gave him a peck.

"I will always be here."

Their faces were so close and it led to kissing. Unlike the usual hungry and horny kisses, this time it was tame and sweet. Yet they felt more connected.

"I met my father earlier and I decided to go here to greet Auntie."

Scarlett said and put the flowers on.

"Ah, I forgot to introduce you. Mom this is Scarlett, I know that you already meet her, but I want to introduce her as my girlfriend. I struck a gold mine, right?"

"Hello, Auntie. Just like I promise, I will protect Calix."

"Wait, you made a promise with my mother? When?"

"When I was young."

"And you still remember it?"

"Of course."

"What did she say to you?"

Calix was curious.

"Well, she said that you are stupid and reckless and she was afraid that you would grow like that. So she said that I have to look at you and make sure that will never happen... Now that I think about it, I failed. You are still reckless and stupid."

"Hey!"

"Fufu."

The two started laughing, their fingers intertwining.

"So, what happened? You're not going to keep it secret from me, right?"

She raised her brow, she was quite scary actually.

Calix averted his gaze as she did not know where to start.

"Well, how should I say it, I realized that I'm happy to be alive."

"... We will talk about this later"

Her gaze was piercing him and he immediately nodded.

"O- okay."

"So..."

"Guh!"
