Chapter 67

'Friend' Even though it had been hours since she said that word, it was still fresh in his head and the thought of it made Bryant think he was going to lose his mind. Was she so ashamed of him that she couldn't even introduce him to her brother? Is that how much of a pathetic loser he is? The thought of it made Bryant want to go crazy but he tried to keep his sanity.

The sound of the footsteps behind him caught his attention and even though he didn't look back to check who had just walked into his balcony where he had been, getting fresh air, he knew that the person was Celine.

"Dinner is ready, Bryant," Hearing her voice, Bryant turned his wheelchair and faced her.

"Dinner is ready? Is that all you are going to say to me?" Bryant almost lost his patience and raised his voice at her, but he tried to at least remain calm for the sake of nothing.

"What do you mean?" How she could still act as though nothing happened earlier made Bryant hurt even more and he huffed. Brya

    Chapter 68Celine POVHurting Bryant was the last thing I'd ever wanted to do, but what could I do now that my brother is here?"Just tell him the truth and let everything rest," You would say to me, but if only you know the kind of crazy jerk my brother is. It has been years and he was still like that. He would be mad at me for the rest of his life if he found out that I was dating Bryant."You can go to bed, Jake. I'll join you soon," I said to him after we had dinner and we returned to my room. I was put in a tight corner and couldn't even talk to Bryant."Hmm," He nodded his head and lay on the bed."Good night, sis," He said as he pulled the duvet to cover himself, and I briefly sighed before I made my way into the bathroom to shower and come back to bed.I spent over twenty minutes in the bathroom, and I was stunned to find Jake seated on the bed when I walked back into my room after I left the bathroom."You are still awake?" I asked him as I walked over to the closet where I p

    Chapter 69Celine Coleman POVMy heart pounded hard against my chest as I waved my hand on Jeff's face, and when I confirmed he was already asleep, I grabbed my phone and tiptoed to the door. I twisted the doorknob carefully in a way that it didn't make even a single sound, and when I was able to pull the door open silently, I made my way out of the room and closed the door back, finally releasing the breath I'd been holding unknowingly."That was close," I muttered and finally walked down the walkway that led to Bryant's room.I knocked on his door when I got to his room, and he ushered me in. I pushed the door open and peeped inside before I walked in fully. "Bryant..." I called his attention when I walked in and found him close to the window as he stared out of it, and he immediately turned his wheelchair to face me. I had expected him to frown at me or get mad at me, but he just smiled, revealing his set of perfect dentition."I thought you were not going to come. I've really mi

    Chapter 70Celine Coleman POVI couldn't help the smile that laced up my lips, waking up with Bryant sleeping peacefully by my side. I cupped his cheek in my palm and rubbed it gently, and just then, his eyelids moved until his eyes opened and he stared at me."Good morning, baby," His voice was thick as he just woke up, and I smiled at him."Good morning, my love. Did you sleep well?""Hmm, I did. What about you?" He asked as he managed to sit up on the bed. We were both naked under the duvet since we went back to sleep immediately after the session of lovemaking yesterday night."Yes, I did. I'm still a bit tired and sleepy," I rubbed my eyes sleepily."It's still early. You should get some more sleep," He uttered as he looked down at me, but even if I desperately wanted to sleep for some more time, I knew I wouldn't want Jake to find out I slept here. I needed to return to him before he found out something."No... I'll return to my room," I insisted as I reached for my robe lying

    Chapter 71Bryant Reed POVThe conference was done successfully. My so-called father had gotten what he deserved and is currently in the Pack prison. I finally got the justice I'd always looked forward to.It was a beautiful evening, and watching the sky from the balcony of my room felt so good and relaxing. The sound of the footsteps behind me and the familiar scent of Celine caught my attention, and when I turned the wheelchair to face the direction, I found her walking inside."I had no idea you were here. Why are you here alone?" She asked with concern as she walked over to me."Nothing. I just want to get fresh air. When did you get home?" I asked her because she went out earlier with her brother to have fun."I just got back," She replied to me as she leaned against the rail in front of me."What about Jeff?" I asked her, and she shrugged."Chatting with Nolan as usual. They were playing video games before I came here," She replied to me. It was crazy and annoying how Jeff had g

    Chapter 72Celine Coleman POVI tried to hold back my tears as I walked down the walkway, and I finally let it all out as soon as I walked inside my room. That was so dumb of me. I could've done something, maybe an assurance would've done the job, how could I have broken up with him?I slumped on the bed and buried my face between my palms as tears streamed down my cheeks. Imagining my future without Bryant was something I never thought of, and now that I did, it felt like hell. How was I going to cope without him? I loved my brother as much as I loved Bryant, I wanted my relationship with my brother as much as I wanted it with Bryant, but maybe this was just the best thing I could do.I was still seated on the bed, crying my eyes out when the door opened and Jeff walked inside."Celine? Are you crying?" I heard his voice, so I quickly wiped my tears and stood up."Me? Crying? Of course, not. I wasn't crying," I didn't expect him to fall for the lies because the evidence was on my fa

    Chapter 73Bryant Reed POVI watched as Celine paced restlessly in the room. Jeff was currently being attended to by the doctor that treated Nolan the other time he had injury. Seeing the worried expression on Celine's face made me feel guilty and regretted my action. I was enraged and only trying to protect my woman, but I guess I went too far. I shouldn't have done that."How is he, doc?" Celine paused and asked the doctor worriedly once he was done attending to him."The injuries have been tended to, and he'll be fine after he wakes up later," Celine sighed in relief when the doctor said to her."Thank you," She said to the doctor."Hmm..." The doctor nodded then turned to face me."I'll be on my way now, Sir. Call me if there is anything else you need. I'll come back tomorrow morning to treat the wound again," The doctor said to me, and I nodded."I will bring him some pain relievers when coming over tomorrow," He said to me and I nodded. He finally left, and I breathed out.I sta

    Chapter 74Celine Coleman POV "Get away from me!" Jeff slapped his medicine off my hand and sent it pouring on the ground, and I sighed. He had been like this since yesterday night that he woke up, and not that I blamed him for anything, anyway. He should really be mad at me for what happened."Can you stop being like this already, Jeff? You need to take your medicine if you are going to get better. You can get mad at me later after you are perfectly fine," I tried to talk to him, but he just glared hard at me and scoffed."You disgust me, Celine. I curse being your brother," Those words pierced through my heart like a sharp dagger, and as much as it hurts, I tried not to show it."You can curse me all you want, Jeff. Can you please take your medicine? Like I said, you can get mad at me later when you are fine enough," I pleaded with him, but he scoffed and turned his face away."I'm sure Dad would be turning in his grave out of anger and disappointment now seeing the worthless life

    Chapter 75"You can enjoy your life with your crippled boyfriend and don't even think of ever calling me. I cut all ties with you as my sister," Jeff stated and I slowly clenched my fingers. My heart wrenched painfully as I watched him drag his suitcase toward the exit door and just like that, he left me.Tears brimmed in my eyes as I stared at the closed door, but I tried to hold them back."Celine?" Bryant called me, and I turned to face him."I'll be in my room," I said to him, and without spending another second in the living room, I took off to my room.I pushed the door open at once and barged inside, crashing against the door as soon as I was inside. I finally allowed my tears to fall freely down my cheeks as I hugged my knees to myself.I reached for my phone and dialed Jeff's number even though he already told me never to call him. I was hoping he'd change his mind and come back to me. He knew nowhere here so I couldn't just leave him alone to himself like that, yeah?As expe

    Chapter 112EpilogueAs Celine sat on the edge of the bed, staring at a picture frame of her family which had her Mom, Claire, Jake, Bryant, and herself in it, she couldn't help but smile excitedly. This was the kind of family she had always prayed for. The kind of life she had always prayed to her maker for. Being with her family and getting married to a loving man. She couldn't be more than glad that her prayers were all answered.The bathroom door opened, and Bryant wheeled himself into the room. He had a white towel wrapped around his waist and his body dripping wet. He had just showered. He paused and smiled when he saw his beautiful wife seated on the bed."Is the baby kicking you?" He asked with a sweet smile on his face, and Celine looked from the picture to him."Not really... I'm just admiring us here... We look so good together," She looked at him and smiled."Right from the day I set my eyes on you, I knew we were going to look perfect together," He uttered as he wheeled h

    Chapter 111A few days laterCeline Coleman POVI stood on the balcony of Bryant's room and stared up into space. A lot has happened over the last one week since I met my mom after many years. Even though I wasn't so mad at her, I couldn't still bring myself to forgive and accept her back into my life. Not after everything we had passed through without her here. Jake met her also, but he wasn't ready to forgive her, just as I am. I spoke with Bryant about Jake over the week and he had forgiven him for everything he had done. I asked Jake to move in with us, but he said he had something to take care of before that, so I had to respect his decision."It's cold out here... You should go back inside," I heard Bryant's voice, and I turned to find him seated in his wheelchair. He was wearing pajamas, probably ready to go to bed. "Hmm... Just getting fresh air. Will go back inside soon," I replied to him, and he wheeled himself to me. "Babe..." He held my hand and squeezed it gently."I w

    Chapter 110Celine ColemanToo many thoughts paraded my mind as the cab I boarded drove down the road, heading to Claire's apartment. I knew something was wrong somewhere because she didn't sound fine, but I could only find out about it if I went to her house, yeah? As much as I wanted to stay calm, my curiosity was eating me up every damn second and I ended up being tensed.It felt like the drive was slow even though it wasn't. I was desperate to get home early and meet her Mom. I was desperate to see her and finally know who she was."Can you drive faster, please?" I urged the driver when he slowed down the cab."There is a heavy traffic jam ahead," He replied to me, and I couldn't help but feel frustrated. Not today, please."Calm down, Celine. She's not running away. You will meet her even if you go there late," My subconscious mind reminded me, but it was just difficult to listen.We ended up spending fifteen minutes in the traffic jam before we were able to get out of it.

    Chapter 109Celine Coleman POVIt was finally morning and the day Claire had told me her Mom would be back.The aroma coming from the kitchen welcomed me as I descended the staircase after I left my room. My mouth salivated and my stomach grumbled hungrily, so I left for the kitchen."You are awake? I didn't want to wake you up. Good morning. Did you sleep well?" She looked at me and smiled."Good morning. Yes, I did. What about you?" I pulled the refrigerator open and brought out a bottle of water."I did," She replied to me."What are you making?" I asked as I uncapped the bottle and drank some water from it."Breakfast. It's a surprise. Trust the process," She winked at me, and I smiled."So, have you called your mom yet? What time is she coming back?" I asked curiously after I put back the bottle inside the refrigerator."Are you so desperate to move out?" She asked sadly, but I shook my head."Far from that... I'm just concerned," I shrugged, leaning against the counter."I was j

    Chapter 108Celine Coleman POV"Are you feeling sick? Do you need to go to the hospital?" I asked Claire after I pulled the car over at the parking lot in her apartment, but she slowly shook her head. We were supposed to go for a walk after work, but she was so dull that we only did it briefly and she asked us to come home instead. She couldn't even drive, so I had to do it myself."I'm fine. I just need to get some rest, and I'll be fine then," She replied to me as she removed her seatbelt, pushed the door open, and stepped out of the car. I did the same and alighted from the car too.I watched as she dragged herself toward the entrance, and by the time I got to the living room after she walked inside, I found her already seated on the couch. She looked like she had worked her ass off all day and was going to die anytime soon."Do you need anything? Should I get you a glass of water?" I went to sit beside her on the couch and held her hand."No," She replied to me, and I briefly sigh

    Chapter 107Celine Coleman POV'I don't think I'm ready to be a father... I'm scared, Celine. I don't know if I'll be able to' Those words replayed in my head for the umpteenth time as I sat behind my desk in my office. I have been trying to concentrate all day since I came to the office, but my head has been messed up and I haven't been able to think straight. A part of me was disappointed when he said that, but another part of me tried to understand him. "It's not something to be mad about, Celine. You can help him overcome it," I said to myself and breathed in and out before I resumed work.The office telephone started to ring and I picked it up."Hello! This is...""Come to my office, Ms. Celine," Claire said from the other end, and the call disconnected immediately.I dropped the phone, stood up, and proceeded to her office to hear her out."You asked to see me, ma'am," I said to her politely, and she rolled her eyes."I told you to drop the formality.

    Chapter 106Celine Coleman POVI rubbed my stomach gently, unable to hold back my smile as the cabby drove down the road. It was still hard to believe that I was pregnant. The thought of it made me feel like I was on top of the world. It just felt so good."We are here, ma'am," The cabby's voice pulled me back to reality, and that was when the realization dawned on me that he was already parked in front of Bryant's house."Thank you," I muttered as I pushed the car door open and stepped out of the car. I paid him and he zoomed off.As I stood in front of the house, I held my handbag tightly and bit my bottom lip. A part of me was eager to tell Bryant about the good news, but another part of me wanted me to wait. Bryant would ask me to move in immediately if he found out about the pregnancy now, and I still needed three days to do my confirmation before I leave Claire's house."Just three days... Just three days, and you'll tell him. You have to keep it for now," I said to myself and t

    Chapter 105Celine Coleman POV'The doctor will be with you shortly. He is busy' One of the nurses had said to me earlier when I just arrived at the hospital, and here I was for the past thirty minutes, still waiting for the doctor. I was almost losing it, but I tried to understand the nature of their job and be patient. Maybe there were too many patients to attend to today.I touched my forehead for the umpteenth time and winced silently as waves of pain spurred through me. What could've caused this overnight? I asked myself, but there wasn't any answer I could provide for it, so I had to wait for the doctor.My phone started to ring, and Bryant's name was displayed on the screen. I swiped the answer button."Hey, babe," His calm, deep, yet soothing voice came through the phone, and I smiled."Hey,""I'm sorry I'm just calling you now. I woke up quite late. Did you sleep well?""It's fine, I understand. And yes, I slept well," I replied to him."Are you coming over today?" He asked."

    Chapter 104Celine Coleman POV"Are you seeing someone?" Claire said out of the blue moon, and I choked on my food and started coughing."Why are you choking? I only asked a question," She clicked her tongue as she handed me a glass of water, and I drank from it."How did you know that?" I looked at her and asked, but her face beamed with smiles instead."Are you really seeing someone? Who is he? Is he cute? I like cute guys, so, is he cute?" She bombarded me with questions as she looked at me, desperate for answers."Ugh! You are so..." I paused and shook my head, not knowing what to say."Come on, tell me everything. Who is he?" She asked me, and I rolled my eyes. "He's just a random guy... Yeah, just someone I met some time ago," I replied to her, and she raised her eyebrows. I felt guilty for lying to her, but I couldn't just start telling her everything when I didn't even know what they were after, right?"Has it been long since you two have been together?"
