“Press conference”
** Episode- 253 “Press conference”**
** Alisa’s POV:**
This is really frustrating, the anger, fear
and helplessness is making me shake from inside.. yes , I know I acted rude
towards Edwin earlier… but it happened out of me without any purpose.. I need
space now.. I just don’t want to talk or speak… this man, Jasper whoever he is…
he tried to go to my family… even though I decided not to contact any one of
them.. but they are my family how can I not be worried.. this thing is making
me fear… what if he tried to harm my family.. what will I do.?. what I am going
to do?”
I am really worried and not into breakfast,
and I can’t face Edwin, I mean I can’t talk normally with him right now.. and
if I tried to speak I am sure I will spit something which will make the
situation worst, what should I do.. I
just don’t want to talk right now…
I heard Edwin saying, “Little dove…. Today I have a press conference on
new product…. You are coming with me..” I got up and pulled my bag and said,
“Yes….” I walked out of the hall.. I really can’t face him, a part of me is
guilty for my behavior earlier… shit.. how I acted like this out of anger and
frustration, he did nothing then why should I make him go through this..
I walked to the car and sat in it as I am really mad at myself and at that
person who is threatening my family… the car started driving, I sigh as I had a
glance at the palace… I shouldn’t have
behaved like this.. Edwin… must me really sad about my behavior, I am such
idiot.. why I pulled all of that on him.. I am really rude to him… first I
acted like a angry teen in morning and now I walked out rudely from breakfast
table… especially when he was trying to
speak to me… I covered my face with my both hands and cursed at myself… what is
wrong with me… this is all because of that stupid person who is trying to do
something really wrong…. I am going crazy in anger…
Throughout the day, I was really not
into my right state of mind… I was not talking much, just trying to isolate
myself.. I was just worried how I was going to say sorry to Edwin.. this is
really hard,… this time I know I really f*cked up.. but what can I do now to
say sorry…. He texted me, that he wants to talk but I was too scared to reply..
I was scared that if I typed something wrong over text then things will go more
wrong... I am an total idiot…
Tina noticed my silence and asked but I made up a reason… well… I fell
like is shouldn’t push any reason to stress to her.. she is helps me a lot but
this time I need to figure out something on myself… well today I am supposed to
be in a press conference.. well I need to face Edwin there but how… I am really
worried about it… and it’s almost evening.. time of the press conference is near
and I need to get ready…. I was getting ready as my stylist is doing my hair..
Mrs. Samantha is here and I am really stressed about both this conference and
how I am going to say sorry.. so Edwin will forgive me…
As the stylist left after final touchup, I turned to Mrs. Samantha and
she started giving me details about this press conference and what role do I
have… well I don’t have much to do.. I just need to answer some questions if
the press ask me…. well she said, I can reject any question if I found any of
them offending… I nodded…
Finally, I was here on the venue of the press conference, I haven’t
replied to any of the text Edwin send me… what can I do… I am really scared of
it…
I heard Samantha opening the door and saying, “Your grace… it’s time…” I
turned and walked to the door and saw Edwin, he is well dressed and perfect..
he looks perfect, confident…. I was stoned at first but when he stretched his
hand to me, I took it… he looked at Samantha and she excused herself…. Wait…
no… I don’t know how to explain…
Edwin pulled me back to the VIP waiting room, he asked with cold voice,
“Why aren’t you answering my text?” god! I know he is mad.. I heard him, “I need answer Alisa?” he is angry… I know it very well….I looked at
him and said as I sigh, “I don’t know…. can we talk later…” he scoffed… he
said, “Please… I need to know…. you can’t just escape very time with silly
excuses…” he was more demanding… that’s it.. I said back, “well.. what you want
to know… I am scared… ok.. I scared… I can’t talk to you because I know I will
say something wrong… is it enough!” he looked at me for wide second and I can’t
take this silence.. I walked passing him and said, “we should go.. media is
waiting…”
We are in middle of conference, and Edwin is doing well, I fell proud
but I am worried about that small argument earlier.. that was not the right
time or right place.. but there is no right time or right place to have an
argument…. It just happens… just happens… I hate fighting with him.. but I
really don’t want to… but it happened on its own…
He was holding into my waist and smiling like nothing happened, and so
did I… Edwin finished his answer… and the reporter immediately asked again,
“So… my Question for both Queen and King… Sir, Ma’am.. tell me how is your
married life went for you till now?”
Edwin smiled and said, “Well.. it’s pretty good and ideal, it’s
something more than can ever ask…. It’s
like a every bit of time is worth to be in a happy relationship…” I was looking
at him with my internal self asking me, we were in fight earlier… the reporters
turned to me and I smiled as I answered, “For…. Me… it’s everything more than I
can ask… it feels good when you have your partner to care for you.. being
married means you are there for each other in every time…” I smiled, the
reporter seemed to be satisfied by answer..
Another person stood up and asked, “Ma’am.. this time I want you be honest
with this question… we heard rumors that , your sister committed suicide? Is it
correct?... you could have helped her if she had some physiological issue…” my
smile gadded, I noticed Edwin’s harp eyes..
I need to handle this before Edwin losses his temper in front to the
media.. I said, “yes… she did… I always feel like as a elder sister if I was in
touch with her, things could have been different.. but at that time I was so
busy in my business and I was living on my own… I miss her.. she was my sister,
I will always miss her…” the reporter asked again, “I also heard your sister
Ruth Scott was supposed to be the face of Scotts corporation… if your sister
was alive you could have never reached to the Scott’s corporation.. aren’t you
in advantage after your sister’s death…” my grip tighten around my fingers,
I heard Edwin, “How dare you be this rude to the Queen?” the reporter
said with confidence, “Am I wrong Mrs. Gray?”
