Chapter 139

Esmeralda's POV

When Killian said those words, it seemed like he harbored a kind of anger and hatred for Paula. I felt it would be too insensitive to ask him why he said that. I also did not want him to feel like I actually wanted him to marry her because I was feeling guilty about everything.

I was troubled by what he said. Harboring such anger and hate towards a person wasn't good, especially towards the woman who was going to birth his children.

Even though he and I have become some sort of a thing since there was no tag on our relationship, it wasn't my place to ask or try to make him.think differently about it. I was worried about him but I couldn't scold him. It wasn't my business.

The best I could do was place my hand over his own as a show of comfort so he could feel the depth of my affection for him.
