My Sister-In-Law Is My Mate!?!

"I will take revenge for my death. I will never let you live happily!!'' Her tone was filled with hatred and her grip on the bed sheet was so tight as if she was holding the neck of the person she wanted to kill! But why did she want to take revenge for her death? Wasn't she alive? She was breathing and kicking a living being who was full of life? Then he didn't even agree if she was talking about it figuratively!

But he could feel the pain in the tone even when she was asleep. Has she faced any nearly death experience like he had. That was why she wanted to take revenge from the perpetrator?

Just how much the incident had affected her that it had taken place in her subconscious mind! That was why it was tormenting her even in her sleep.

Looking at her face, he felt a deep fury. He wanted to know the name of the person. So that he could shred them into pieces. A suffocating feeling started to come to him when he thought about her life and her stubbornness to not change it. If she was living so miserably here, why did she not want to marry her and leave this place once and forever!

His hands moved towards her head. He wanted to pat her so that she could sleep more comfortably. But before he could even move an inch. He felt movements on the other side of the door. Then the door's knob moved and the door opened with a creak, making him rigid at his place.

Elie was exasperated, the moment she had gone to bring the tea for the elder miss, everyone was giving her task! When she reached the kitchen and started heating the water, the head maid called her and asked her to deliver the milk in the room of young miss. She made an excuse that she was not able to find any other maid and the milk would turn cold if it was delayed.

Elie wanted to tell that young miss had a dozen maids serving her, but delivering milk would only take a minute and the water would take some time to boil. With that thought she nodded and left the kitchen to deliver the milk.

But when she reached the room of Amelia, she had fallen somehow and had hurt her ankles. She was still sitting on the floor alone with tears in her eyes.

Elie did not have the heart or courage to leave her there in that condition. She ran and helped her in standing up and then took her towards the bed with slow steps.

"Where is all your staff?" she had asked the young girl who shook her head.

"Father is too angry. He had called all the staff to meet him. Why did you not go with them?" asked Amelia with a frown on her face but Elie shook her head.

"Umm, i was not called or informed about the staff meeting, young miss." Elie replied honestly. Even the head maid did not tell her when she found her in the kitchen. But asked to deliver the milk instead.

Maybe it was just the meeting of Amelia's staff. But why? It did not make any sense to call them only personally. She was still lost in her thoughts when she heard a low gasp from Amelia. Only then did she remember that the lady was hurt.

"Elie, I know that you do not work for me anymore. But it is a pain and I do not have anyone else to help me. So, can you help me in applying ointment and bandaging my ankle?" asked Amelia as her face contorted with pain.

Elie nodded hesitatingly. Though she was worried about Hazel who had cried her eyes out and was now waiting for her to serve the tea, she could not ignore that Amelia was in pain too.

She had hurt herself and had no one who could tend to her.

"Of course, young miss. You do not need to ask me. I will always follow your commands. After all, I am still serving the Lonhartus family." she replied with a polite smile as she moved to bring the medicine.

But she frowned again when she did not find it at this place. She looked in the other shelves too but the first aid box was nowhere to be seen. Her brows knitted into a straight line. Where did the box go? She was sure that she had remembered the right place. She had served Amelia long enough to know which thing was kept where!

She looked at Amelia with an awkward smile who was still rubbing her ankle with slow hands.

"I am not able to find the first aid box in your room. Wait! Let me bring one from the kitchen!" replied Elie but she did not understand why Amelia's eyes widened as if she was shocked with this simple statement. And before she could understand why? Amelia shook her head with extreme force.

Elie frowned, she did not understand why Amelia did not want her to bring the medicine when she was in so much pain and needed urgent treatment.

As if reading her thought, Amelia looked at her with pitiful face, her eyes filled with unshed tears

"No! Do not leave me alone. I did not know why but i am feeling uneasy and in pain when i am left alone. Please be with me here." she requested in a soft voice that even if Elie found the excuse absurd, she did not have the heart to deny.

She raked her brain and tried to speak in the most polite voice.

"But if I do not go and bring the medicine box then I will not be able to treat your legs. It will increase the swelling in your feet and it may hurt a lot later. You will not be able to bear it then. Shall i go and bring the medicine box?"

"......"
