Take Me Away

"Fiona..."

There was hesitation in Spencer's voice as all three of them froze on the spot.

Fiona couldn't decide whether to enter the room or leave. She couldn't believe what she just saw—Spencer and his sister were kissing each other.

Celine quickly wiped off her tears and turned to Fiona. Walking up to her, she said, "You must be Fiona."

Fiona's eyes instantly moved to Celine's slightly faded lipstick. With a blush, she turned her head away. Recalling how she saw the two of them bent over in a kiss made her terribly uncomfortable and upset.

"I'll get to the point. I like Spencer. Will you give him to me?" Celine blurted completely unabashed. Although what she said was in the form of a question, Fiona was certain she wasn't really asking.

Her words stunned not just Fiona but Spencer as well.

"Celine!" Spencer roared. "Are you crazy? What are you talking about? Leave now!"

But Celine remained where she stood. She kept her gaze fixed on Fiona and repeated, "Give him to me!"

Fiona wasn't taking any of her attitude. Raising her head and straightening her back, she turned to Spencer who was standing by the window. Looking back at Celine, she said casually, "Why are you asking me? He's not mine to give."

Spencer's wide eyes and gaping mouth betrayed his shock as he looked at Fiona. He clenched his hands in anger, but there was a trace of pain in his expression.

"I see." Celine gave Spencer a tepid smile before leaving the room.

As soon as she left them alone, Fiona headed straight to the bathroom, completely ignoring her husband. If only it were not their wedding night, she would've rushed out of there.

She locked herself in the bathroom and ran water over the tub. Her mind was still replaying the shocking scene she had just witnessed.

Just then, the loud slamming of the door disturbed her thoughts.

Fiona looked up to check what had happened.

Spencer had kicked the door open and was staring at her with angry eyes. He didn't say anything but Fiona felt as if his presence had filled the small bathroom.

She returned his gaze with equal boldness and said indifferently, "I'll be taking a bath. Please get out!"

Enraged, Spencer grabbed her by the chin. He forced her to look at him as he said, "And where do you want me to go? Hmm?"
