Chapter 217 - Lies

"Oscar, listen to me! It's not what you think! I didn't lie to you on purpose, but I'm not ready to tell you if my eyes have healed, I just don't…" Oscar cut Lisa off immediately before she finished her sentence. The man got up from the bed and curled up.

"Why, Lisa? Why do you have the heart to do this to me? Don't you know how much time I wasted accompanying you in the hospital until your vision recovered? Do you know how much money I spent to cover your surgery and hospitalization costs?" The man's voice sounded sad yet cold and piercing as usual. Hearing his deep and cold voice immediately made Lisa stunned.

Lisa lowered her head as she leaned towards Oscar who was curled up on the floor. Lisa put her tiny palm on his broad shoulder awkwardly then said, "Oscar I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have lied to you when my vision recovered,"

In her heart, Lisa felt guilty for taking advantage of the opportunity. Lisa just wanted to test Oscar's loyalty and concern, and if she was lucky, she also wanted to feel safe and comfortable when she was with the golden haired man. It seemed that no matter how much Lisa apologized, Oscar was not going to change his disappointed feelings for her anytime soon.

Oscar turned around, his sad looking blue eyes returning to Lisa's face. "Do you know how worried I am for you, Lisa? When I first saw you in the ER at that time, I immediately canceled all meetings that very day. But it turns out you've been lying to me all this time!?" Oscar looked very disappointed with Lisa, the man linked his hands together while lowering his heavy head.

"Oscar, listen to me first! I'm not even done explaining yet!" Lisa said, stretching out her hand and tugging Oscar's shoulder gently towards her. Unintentionally, her eyes fell on the red lip stain on Oscar's collar. Lisa's mind started spinning. 

"That lip stain..." Lisa said softly. "It must be Clara's right? Huh, it's true, I can't believe everything you're saying Oscar. You still love Clara haha, I'm so stupid... haha..." Lisa immediately changed her face, her expression became gloomy. How devastated and disappointed her heart was when her eyes stared at the kiss mark on Oscar's collar.

Lisa almost gave Oscar a second chance to correct his mistakes in the past, but apparently, the man tricked her again.

For a moment, Lisa felt stupid, so stupid. How could she not realize, Oscar asked permission to visit William in another hospital yesterday, it was certain that the man was visiting Clara and making love to her until night! How hurt she felt when she realized that Oscar had been tricking her.

Lisa, who had wanted to explain to Oscar why she pretended to be nearsighted, now became reluctant because of the lipstick stain. Lisa turned around her back to Oscar with a chuckle.

"Lisa, this isn't what you think!" Oscar said defensively. The man leaned over to her and looked at her face, which looked grim as if she had just heard a really bad news.

The woman turned around, staring at Oscar's sad face. "At this rate, will you believe me if I explain what happened to my eyes?" Lisa asked back sarcastically, her arms crossed while keeping the tough look on her face.

Oscar was silent, Lisa's words just now seemed to be transformed into a bullet that pierced his ribs. Now both of them were the same! 

"So if you want to lie to me, you should clean those lip marks before coming here!" Lisa said sharply, her index finger pointing hard at Oscar's face. She turned around again. She didn't want to look at the face of the blonde haired man before her heart calmed down again.

Without Lisa knowing it, her eyes were watering again. Cries began to burst instantly in the cold room. Lisa curled up on the bed, pouring all her sadness and pain until her eyes were dry.

Oscar felt a little guilty about what had happened. He didn't know anything about Clara's lip marks on his collar. Oscar thought that he was very stupid. The man got up from the bed and then hit the surface of the table near the window of the VIP room. The sound of the broken glass sounded so loud that it was deafening to Lisa's ears. 

The glass shattered into pieces until it stuck in Oscar's hand, causing him to bleed. The man was breathing hard as if he was being chased by a group of criminals on the street. Oscar then sat on the floor, patting his forehead many times. Soon, the man got up and rushed to the bathroom. He pulled his red tie and tied it to his injured hand.

"You think I'll care about your injured hand, Oscar!?" Lisa exclaimed from her bed. The man went straight to Lisa and looked at her with a look full of anger. 

"Listen to me! I'm not hitting this table to provoke your sympathy like you did to me! You don't know how upset and disappointed I am with you!"

"Then you think I'm not disappointed and hurt seeing Clara's lip stain on your collar?" Lisa asked back, her tone sounding cynical. The woman then looked away again. Oscar's face completely sidetracked her senses. In such an unfavorable circumstance, Lisa didn't want to be distracted by Oscar's good looks.

"Lisa, I'll tell you, Clara and I are not married! We didn't even have a child! Even my relationship with Clara is not like what you imagine!" Oscar explained in his deep, firm voice. The man sounded serious but Lisa didn't want to be fooled anymore so she was very careful in digesting Oscar's words. 

"Then how can you explain the lip marks on your collar!? Don't look at my face and tell me lies every time I ask about your relationship with Clara! I know you lied to me so that you could use my body to satisfy your desire right!?" Lisa shouted in her shrill voice. The woman had exhausted her temper, she pointed her index finger in Oscar's face. The look in her eyes was very angry and terrifying. 

Oscar immediately stepped back a moment from where he was standing, avoiding Lisa's forefinger which almost caught one of his eyes. 

The atmosphere between the two of them became tense and awkward within seconds. Moreover, the temperature in the room was getting colder. The two looked like they were ready to attack each other.

Oscar's two blue eyes met Lisa's dark eyes that seemed to be shining. The man closed his eyes then took a deep breath, trying to calm his turbulent heart. 

"Lisa, allow me to explain again...."
