Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher Birds Of Same Feathers
"Mia! Are you also on his side! At least you're my personal secretary. You should be on my side no matter how bad I am." Cruz complained. "I'm sure you know more than anyone else that I will always be on your side but if you allow me, I'd love to be honest with you today." Mia suggested as she took her seat across Cruz and with more hesitation, Cruz also sat down waiting to hear whatever she had to say. "All my years of working with you, I never saw this coming. I never imagined that a day would come when Dr. Cruz Westham would be so…" "Just hold it there! I can't begin to count how many times I have heard those words this morning. I said I'm not in love with her, why can't you all just get it!" Cruz flared up but Mia's chuckle made him realize he had overreacted. "See? I haven't even mentioned her name and you are already thinking about her…after all, you never stopped thinking about her." She pointed out, a broad smile dangling on her lips. "If you are here to taunt me, drop th

With much hesitation, Jessica returned to her seat and sipped her coffee before giving the answer Mia was yearning to hear. "Yes." Jessica finally replied. "Look, you have only now to say whatever you have about Cruz because after now, he will be nothing more than the Chief Surgeon to me." She added. "Like I mentioned earlier, Cruz, Klaus and Jason used to be birds of the same feathers. They were best of friends until a few hours before Cruz's kidnap in high school. I'm sure you must have heard this tale from either Jason or Cade, but Cruz had never disclosed what happened to anyone. Not even his parents as any teenager would do at that time. " Mia explained, leaving Jessica stunned. "What? Klaus and Cruz were once best friends? It's so hard to believe. And what's up with their fight before his kidnap? Was Klaus ever suspected for Cruz's kidnap?" Jessica asked curiously. "Yes. In fact, at some point they were both suspects of the infamous kidnap in Palm Springs especially with the

"You know what…I almost fell for this stupid charade of yours!" Jessica blurted out of the blue, confusing Cruz as her face hardened."I can't believe I forgot for a moment that you could never change for anyone. You say this is up to me but you're still trying to force a decision on me. Just quit this charade and stand up because I don't want to hear whatever you have to say." Jessica blurted out before pushing Cruz's hands away and walking out on him. "Jess…" Cruz's voice trailed off as he watched Jessica leave. "Is this what you have reduced yourself to?" Valeria's voice interrupted Cruz's crumbled thoughts and he quickly wiped out his tears and stood up to his feet. "Valeria, what are you doing here?" Cruz asked, trying to divert the topic. "Seriously, Cruz? How could you go down on your knees…" "VALERIA!" Cruz called out, scaring Whatever happened here is none of your business. It's not work-related so you can as well forget you saw or heard anything." Cruz warned and atte

"Just how much do you know Jessica?" Klaus mumbled after several minutes of ogling into Jessica's eyes. "How much did he tell you just to turn you against me?" He asked again but Jessica just stood staring at the sudden change in his composure. "I wish that night didn't come but none of what happened was entirely my fault. I did what I had to do to protect my family just like he has been doing for the past eight years so I have nothing to explain to anyone." He barked before angrily dashing out, causing a stare amongst the other people who were also at the eatery.Jessica sighed as she slumped into the chair once again thinking about the whole ordeal and the secrets the men were hiding from her. "No one is willing to tell me anything and I can't bring myself to trust the only person who is ready to tell me. What a life!" She mumbled. Time was already far spent chatting and eating and finally, she had to return to the office but just as she was about to leave, a young lady in a cle

"Because I missed you!" Cruz replied, blinking rapidly from time to time."You have to leave now! I can't let you…" Jessica's sentence was cut short as Cruz staggered, falling towards Jessica with his head resting on her shoulder, causing her to nearly lose her balance. "Oh, God! You reek of alcohol!" Jessica exclaimed, trying to make him stand properly on his feet but he was too heavy for her to lift with ease. "I love you, Jessica." Cruz continued mumbling. Cruz's weight was beginning to weigh Jessica down so she decided to drag him to the closest couch in the living and while she was still struggling with him, Tyler ran downstairs as they felt Jessica was taking too long to return. "What on Earth…Jessica, what is he doing here looking like that?" Tyler wondered as he quickly lent Jessica a hand in supporting Cruz to the couch. "God, he reeks of alcohol. He must be taking your rejection very badly. Jessica burst into laughter as she saw Leah sneaking downstairs while tightly

Jessica continued to pat his back until he slowly slept off. "He always acts so tough I never imagined I would see him this vulnerable and pitiful." She mumbled as she arranged him on the couch and covered him with a duvet. "I hope your pain is relieved now that you've spoken to me." She mumbled as she stared at his haggard face. For a while, she subconsciously and just when she turned to leave for her room, she noticed a light flashing from his pocket. Without much hesitation, she checked his pocket and brought out his phone which was the source of the light then she realized an incoming call had just ended. "97 missed calls?" She gasped as she saw the number of unanswered calls on the lock screen. Curious as to who might be calling, she knelt beside Cruz and placed his finger in the fingerprint reader, immediately unlocking the phone. "Sorry for invading your privacy like this." She apologized, partially to herself. To her surprise, her photo was on the display as soon as th

"Is this what you really think of the whole situation?" Jessica asked once she finally gathered the energy to speak."Jessica, I said I'm sorry!" Leah apologized further. "You must think being almost murdered by the person you thought loved you is a normal thing that happens to everyone." Jessica accused, still in tears. "I didn't mean it that way." Leah tried to justify herself. "Leah, just leave for now!" Tyler intervened, shoving Leah out of the kitchen before walking up to Jessica who was already losing her balance. He helped seat on the chair by the kitchen counter before running to get her a glass of water. "Stop crying and drink this." Tyler suggested, handing out the glass to her. Without a word, Jessica took the water and drank it in one go before dropping the empty glass on the counter and heaving a sigh of distress which was cut short by the ringing of Tyler's phone. With much hesitation, Tyler answered the call, "Give me some time, I will get back to you." He repli

"Cruz how did you…?" "As for Landon, I overheard part of your conversation with Leah but for the accident, I guessed right since I could tell from that day at the field that you were traumatized. Remember the story you told Cade that day? I knew it was filled with too many holes." Cruz replied thoughtfully. "You didn't love me back then yet you were attentive." Jessica mumbled but Cruz definitely heard her. "Credit goes to my brain, I'm smart, remember?" He joked and a sad chuckle escaped her lips. "Do you want to talk about it?" Cruz asked once again but Jessica immediately turned his back against him. She remained mute for several seconds before taking baby steps towards her bed. "Landon was a really cute guy I fell in love with at first sight. He was the hottest guy in school that year and we started off very beautifully. Wanna guess how he proposed to me?" She asked, turning abruptly towards Cruz with a sad smile on her face, a smile Cruz understood well. Cruz walked closer

"Damn!” Dave exclaimed in awe. “Cruz can definitely hear us.” Dr. Kang affirmed. “Now back to why he is refusing to let us take her…”“Cruz, if you want us to treat Jessica, move your finger twice, if not move it three times.” He suggested and once again, Cruz answered by moving his fingers just twice. “And do you want us to take her? If yes, move your finger twice, otherwise, thrice.” Dr. Kang suggested again and this time, he moved his finger three times.“He wants her to be treated but he doesn’t want us to take her.” Dr. Kang explained. “That means he wants her to be treated here!” Klaus interpreted. “Perfect. Call her doctor! He should treat her here. It would only make Cruz’s condition improve.” Dr. Kang suggested. “And please, no one else must hear of this!” He warned again and the men agreed with her before Dave went to get her doctor. By the next morning, Jessica’s temperature was finally down but she was still in Cruz’s arms. The family was happy she was finally getting

"C-coma?" She stuttered as a lone tear trickled down her cheeks. Dave who was standing behind her slowly massaged her shoulder in an attempt to keep her calm. "How long is he going to be in that condition?" Klaus, who was sitting beside her, asked curiously. "No one can say. Cruz might never wake up." Dr. Kang added. Jessica felt her heart thumping wildly inside her chest. Even though she was prepared for any news, she never expected it to be this bad. As long as the life monitor was on Cruz could be alive but the moment it is turned off, that would be the end of his life. Fortunately, Cruz and his family were rich enough to pay for as long as it would take for him to recover. Everyone was shocked by the news. Every news channel was now carrying the news of Cruz’s misfortune. Fortunately, Cruz was well-loved and he received a lot of good wishes from the masses.THREE MONTHS LATERKlaus's wedding turned out a lot smaller than planned because Cruz's condition had changed everyone
Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher Comatose
Cade was the first to run into the room upon hearing her shriek. Fortunately, her voice pierced the soundproofed rooms thanks to the fact that Cruz has succeeded in opening the door ajar. Upon seeing Cruz's condition, Cade quickly got the attention of Dave and Klaus. ******Cruz was admitted to the emergency ward of his hospital with Dr. Kang and his assigned doctors working on him. Cade had called Dr. Kang as soon as the attack happened. Fortunately, Dr. Kang who had already predicted this was going to happen came to Los Angeles the same day Cruz had come which was why he directed them to Cruz's hospital and was able to meet up with them in time. Outside the ward was the whole family panicking while Cruz's parents pestered Dave to tell them what was going on. "Why did you have an oxygen mask with you as if you knew he was gasping for air? What is wrong with my son? Why is he in that shape?" Cruz's mom pestered Dave and Klaus, hoping any of them would spill the truth. But none o
Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher Last Attack
Jessica refused to get into the car when she was supposed to leave for her house and aside from being genuinely worried, everyone wanted to know why she was refusing to leave. "Before I leave, I want to be certain that she is nowhere near the house, or better still, I will lodge at a hotel." She finally stated her reason. "Jessica, you won't. I promise." Klaus tried to persuade her. "It doesn't matter. I don't want to live under the same roof as her." Jessica retorted. "Sister-in-law, Valeria can't leave because she was placed on house arrest. She can't even step out of the guesthouse. We can't let her off so easily after putting your life in such jeopardy." Cade added, trying to persuade Jessica to go home. "Did they persuade you to think that House Arrest will suffice? What could they possibly do to her since she is carrying their beloved boss and friends' safest child? I could lose my child anytime because of her but she's Cruz's second chance so they won't risk discomfortin
Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher His Return
Back in South Korea, Cruz had suffered another attack after the call and the doctors went through several hours of stress to stabilize him. It was only later the next day that Cruz finally regained his consciousness. By that time, Dave, who had left for South Korea the previous night, was already there with him. Dr. Kang was so pissed with them that he refused to speak with them. It took hours of convincing to finally get Dr. Kang to join them for a conversation but he had a patient to attend to and he agreed to join them once he was done. During that time, Cruz decided to question Dave about the circumstances back at home. "How is Jessica doing?" Cruz asked worriedly as he sat up on his bed, looking a lot thinner than he used to. "Klaus is taking care of things. Dr. Kang is mad because of your recent attack. Can you please try not to involve yourself in the family affairs for now? I promise we will take care of things." Dave pleaded. "How can I when I have completely ruined my

By the time Dave was done with his call, he turned to meet Cade's confused gaze. "Whatever happens in the future, don't look for anyone to put the blame on." Dave warned before walking out on him, heading out of the hospital. Cade was confused about Dave's warning. All he knew was that his brother was a coward who couldn't stay with his wife when he needed her the most. He returned to the room where Jessica's mom was now sitting up, weeping. "I really didn't want to regret joining your family but now I do." She spoke out her mind while staring into Mrs. Westham's eyes. "Jessica really wanted to keep this baby. Now that this happened, she will never be the same again." She continued as she removed the IV connected to her hand and stood up to her feet. "We shouldn't all gather around me. Jessica is the patient here so let's wait around her room. I will take her back home as soon as she is discharged. She will no longer continue whatever this relationship is." She concluded an

"Oh God!" Cade lamented. "F*ck! How could you do this again?" Dave asked as he started at Valeria in disbelief. Jessica was as confused as Valeria was. "What on earth did you give to her, b*tch?" Cade asked as he stood very close to Valeria as if she was trying to swallow her whole. "Cade, back off!" Jessica warned but Cade wasn't ready to listen to her. "What the f*ck did you give to her?" He scolded as he pushed her, making her flinch in fear. For every step she took backwards to create a space between, Cade closed in on her. Even though Cade was young, he was taller and had a well built body and with the anger in his eyes and rage in his voice, it was no doubt it scared Valeria. "Hey…w-what do you think you're doing?" Valeria stuttered. "Cade, I'm talking to you. Back the f*ck off!" Jessica scolded as she grabbed his hand and forcefully pulled him back. Dave didn't know what to do at that time since she already swallowed the pills and the only thing he could do was run ou
Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher Swallow
Cade couldn't stop himself from crying as he saw the condition Jessica was in. He tried to run to her but his legs felt heavy so he just trudged forward until he finally reached where she was seated.Jessica spread out her arms, calling him in for a hug but Cade was hesitant so Jessica pulled him closer and hugged him tightly. "I missed you." She whispered in his ear. Cruz sniffled hard as he tried to stop his cry. "I'm sorry Sister-in-law. I really am." Cade apologized in between his sniffles. "I'm sorry I couldn't keep my promise of protecting you. While I was there having fun, I had no idea you were going through hell over here." He cried as he clenched onto her. "Cade, what was our last promise at the airport?" Jessica asked as she wiped her tears with the back of her right palm. Cade was hesitant, "To stop being nosy in your marriage.""Very good." Jessica sighed as she released him from the hug and made him sit beside her on the bed. "But this is not being nosy. You're cle
