Chapter 17 - Last Hope
Linnea Lindberg
"I don't get it why are you keep coming for me." I crossed my arms in front of my chest looking at Raphael completely not welcome to see him in Norway.
"You have to go back to Sweden, Linnea."
"I've told you that I'm staying here. I already told my parents about it so you can stop."
"Let's just go back okay? I already agreed to marry you." My eyes widen when he said that. I looked at him disbelief and clapped my hands sarcasticly.
"Did you hear yourself? You agreed to marry me?"
"Yes."
"Why?"
"I love you, Linnea." He said and I scoffed.
"It's too late for you to say that, Raphael. If you said that earlier, I would have gone back to Sweden and be with you even though I know that you still hate me for making you leave your company." I said completely angry with him.
"I'm sorry, I know I was selfish but I won't change my mind again." He said and I shook my head.
"Years.. I've loved you for years but you always hurt me in the process. I'm done, Raphael. Just go back to London and do your thing. I'm currently dating Isaac and I like him.. a lot so please don't ruin it for me this time." I said begging.
"Isaac won't give you a serious relationship, Linnea."
"I'll deal with that on my own. I don't care if he wants to be serious or not. Besides.. I think I know why you're acting like this now."
"Linnea, I just.."
"You know that I have dyslexia." I said and he went silent immediately.
"I don't need your pity, Raph."
"Linnea, I-"
"I don't know where did you get that information but I want you to stop looking for me again. I know you never really sincere have feelings for me so.. I hope that you don't see my weakness as the reason for you to marry me." I said as I looked down to the ground. He gripped my upper arms and made me look at him.
"I don't see it as your weakness, it's just.. I understand you.. a little bit late." I pushed his hands away.
"I don't want you to change your mind because of it and I don't care if you understand me a little bit late. You never truly loved me so I beg you not to look for me again." I said and he sighed.
"Does Isaac know?"
"No and I'm not planning to let him know."
"You're serious with him?"
"I hope, but I don't know. He's a little bit like you so I don't really know where this relationship takes me." I said as I looked up to the sky.
"He's a businessman too here." He reminded me and I let out a dry laugh.
"You don't need to remind me that he will be like you." I said coldly.
"Fine, I'll let you go this time but.. I'll talk to you again in 6 months and I'll see you again in Sweden." He said and I turned to him nodding. He left after that and I heard the door opened revealing Isaac walking out from his house.
"What did he say?"
"He just wanted me back to Sweden."
"And what did you say?" He asked and I chuckled looking at him. I kissed his cheek and linked my arm with him.
"I told him to get lost." I said and I looked at the sky. Raphael was right, Isaac is a businessman like him. Even though I like Isaac and have this relationship. There's only a small percentage that he will want to marry me.
I guess.. I picked the wrong target again even though I like him a lot.
Shit!
Now I have to deal with another heartbreak. My heart automaticly dropped to the ground realizing that I made the same mistake.
"You okay?" Isaac asked and I smiled nodding.
"Let's go inside.. I'll take my bag and go back to my apartment."
"I'll drop you home." He said and I nodded. We walked back inside and walked up to his room. I took my bag and bid my goodbye to Isaac's parents. Isaac and I walked out from his mansion and got into his car. He drove out from the mansion and I kept looking out the window.
"Did Raphael say something bad to you? You seemed bothered about it."
"No, I'm fine." I said without turning my head to him.
"You know.. I've always thinking about not to taking the throne." I said as I laughed dryly.
"Why though?"
"I'm not capable enough." Because I have dsylexia, it's always been hard for me to learn. That's why I kept trying to run away because I know I can't fix my condition. I tried to learn how to be a Queen but my brain can't process any of it.
I was depressed about it.
My parents understood about my condition that's why they wanted me to marry Logan so bad. They knew Logan are capable on ruling two countries even though it's a little bit ridiculous.
I don't know how I'm going to deal with my life later on. If I do take over the country, I will always need someone beside me to guide me. I tried to be independent, I tried to fix my weakness but nothing seems to work.
I hate myself for being useless.
How am I going to rule in this situation? Not only I can't rule but I have no luck in love too. Isaac was my last hope but I guess I know what will happen in the end.
