To Hate My Stepbrother Chapter 162
Mason’s POVTalking for a little while with my father, we both made our way back inside while I went to continue my work. I had no idea how much time had gone until I heard loud giggles coming from downstairs.Closing my laptop, I went to see what the noise was about and I couldn’t help the big smile that formed on my lips when I saw Ava, her mum and my father in the kitchen trying to bake a cake.They were all covered in flour and I knew that they were only doing that to make her happy which makes me extremely glad that they were around.FLASHBACK“Khalid, No!” Ava laughed as she tried to stop Khalid from ruining the cake that they both spent almost two hours baking.“It looks really nice.” Khalid protested and went ahead with the cake decoration that made Ava let out a fake gasp as she formed a heart attack.“You just ruined it,” Ava gasped and I couldn’t help the roaring laughter that slipped out of my mouth, “this cake will never remain the same again and so will you.” She said th

Mason’s POVI’d finally calmed from paranoia of what had happened with my mother since that night I spoke about her with Ava and it seemed as though our relationship had skyrocketed even more.Our parents stayed for more weeks and soon they finally decided to leave. Ava and I saw them off to the airport and we’d also decided to wait until it was time for their takeoff.“Will you both be okay?” Ava’s mother asked and I nodded as I took Ava’s hand while she smiled and placed her head on my shoulder.“We’ll be fine mum, you don’t have to worry about us.” She responded as she left me to hug her mother.“It’s hard for her not to be worried, it’s hard for ‘US’ to not be worried about you,” my father cut in as he tried to hold me like I was still a little child.“You both are old enough to get kids of your own and I just can’t believe how much time you’ve spent together and you’re still not pregnant.” Ava’s mother added and my father shrugged as if he was in support of what she’d just said.

Ava’s POV“Let him go!” I cried, perspiring as I clutched my chest, “please, I’ll do whatever you want just let him go.” I pleaded with Chad.The sight of Mason on the floor in his own blood and struggling to breathe caused cold shivers to run through my spine.How am I going to live my life without him? Mason is the only person I have right now and I really can’t afford to lose him.“Sorry,” Chad smirked as his trigger finger pulled on the trigger, “not sorry, it’s too late.” He finished and the sound of gunshot filled the air.Everything seemed to pause as I stared down at Mason’s dead body, I’d wanted to wail but nothing came out as I collapsed on the floor.Crawling to his side in disbelief, “Mason?” I called, tapping him continuously and nudging him in hopes that he was going to wake up but he didn’t even do as little as move his fingers.“No, no,” I cried as I pulled him closer to me, “Mason please, stand up.” I pleaded, my heart shattering like glass. I knew what had just happe

Mason’s POVI’d practiced my speech before the meeting and I couldn’t wait to get the meeting over with. Dressing up, I made my way out of my hotel room to the conference room.“Good day everyone,” I greeted with a smile as I turned the projector on to begin my presentation, “what I’m about to present to you is the initial plan of this company.” I continued.I had no idea when I digressed from what I’d thought of saying to them when I started talking and to my surprise they were invested in what I had to say.“With that being said, my sole purpose of this company as the CEO is to create something really huge and user friendly and not only that, I really want to see this company become so great that a lot of people would want to invest in it.” I continued as I paused for a while.“And I really can’t do it alone without the help and support of the team and board members, I might be the CEO but I also have a lot to learn and I’ll be really happy if everyone comes together to help me with

Ava’s POV“I’m sorry, what?” I asked, my mouth ajar and I was still in shock of what was just revealed to me as I stared at the woman in front of me.“You can either let me in or you can stand there like a shameless goose while I swerve you aside and walk in.” She hissed as she tried to move past me but I stopped her.There was no way this woman in front of me was Mason's mother and that aside, there was no way that I'd let her in my house after what Mason had told me about her.“Are you going to stop me from entering my son’s house?” She asked rudely and without saying a word I nodded affirmatively and it was now her turn to be surprised.Snapping my fingers, the guard that was supposed to be in charge of the door came to the door immediately, he’d moved away at first because we both thought Mason was the one at the door.“Get her out of he…” I was still talking when I felt a sting on my cheek, I opened my eyes to see the woman in front of me breathing heavily.She’d just slapped me.

Ava’s POVThe loud sound of the banging on the door jolted Mason and I out of our sleep and I didn’t need a soothsayer to tell me what I already knew. She already said yesterday that she was going to come back when her son was home and he’s home now.I watched as Mason left the bed angrily and hurried downstairs while I started getting ready for work.“Throw her out of here and I do not ever want to see her here again or you’ll all lose your job.” His voice was loud enough that I could hear it upstairs.Soon, Mason and I were ready to leave for work and as soon as I got to my office I started working on the files that I’d left halfway done yesterday.Trying to catch up with the figures and also make sure that there’s no funny business going on. I looked up to see Mason hovering over me with a smile on his face.“I have a meeting with an investor and I better leave now,” he informed me as he checked his wristwatch, “wanna come?” He asked.“No,” I responded as I shook my head negatively

Ava’s POVGroaning, my head spun and for a moment everything around me was pitch dark that I couldn’t see anything around me. Trying to stand up and struggling to open my eyes.The room that was once dark became bright and it took a while for my eyes to finally adapt to the surroundings. Blinking, I finally opened my eyes properly to see Chad in front of me.He had a wicked smile on his face and he was standing with a man. The man doesn’t look familiar and this was the first time that I’ll be seeing him.I’d tried to stand and that was when I realized that I was bound tight, my hands and legs were tied so tight that even if I tried I couldn’t possibly get out of the rope.“Let me go!” I tried to yell but it only came out muffled because of the duct tape on my mouth.“There’s no use fighting,” the unfamiliar man spoke and Chad’s cynical laughter filled the room as he mocked my state of helplessness.“We have you now and struggling will only hurt you more than we intend to hurt you,” he

Mason’s POVThe well ventilated conference room I was in with one of the investors suddenly felt stuffy when I heard Ava scream out in pain.I just couldn’t help but imagine what he was doing to her, how was he even able to get her? I’d thought that she was in the office, I thought she was safe, especially since she never goes anywhere without her bodyguard.“I’ll do whatever you want, just stop hurting…” I was still talking when I heard the call click, “Hello?” I called back into the phone but Chad had already hung up.I tried calling the number back but I was unable to because it doesn’t even have an ID. What do I do now? I really need to save Ava, I can’t have her get hurt.“What’s wrong? Are you okay?” The investor asked when I pulled my jacket off and I just couldn’t hold back. I was breaking inside of me, I was dying. The sound of Ava’s scream rang again in my head and I just couldn’t help but think of the worse, “It’s Chad.” I answered but he only looked confused.Sighing and

Ava’s POVDanny’s burial soon came and everything was set and ready. The priest spoke before asking us to come make a speech.Walking up to the altar, I looked at everyone around and it felt like I had nothing to say about Danny except the fact that he was a good father to me.“When everyone was less supportive of me, Danny stayed with me, he could disbelieve a lot of things but he never stopped believing in me. He really is the best father in the world and I don’t think they make fathers like him because I think I took the last one.” I laughed and sniffled and the mood was lightened up a bit.“Danny had touched our lives one way or the other and I don’t think he would want us here crying, he was always so full of life and as crazy as it might sound, I think Danny would want us to be glad that he lived the best of his life.” I finished before walking off.Mason made a speech about his father too and watching him stand there just made my heart come crashing down.“We disagree on a lot

Ava’s POVThe blaring sound of my phone ringing jolted Mason and I out of our deep sleep and I groaned as I picked the phone up.Who could be calling me at this hour of the morning?Checking the phone, I almost jumped out of bed when I realized that the call was from my mother and I knew she wouldn’t call unless something is really wrong.“Hey mom,” I called into the phone while also tapping Mason who was already up, “What’s wrong?” I asked after a while of silence.“I… it’s Danny,” she sniffled and my eyes widened at once as I immediately prayed that it isn’t what I’m thinking about.“He had a heart attack and they just rushed him into surgery.” She broke down, I knew if she cried any harder she’d be perspiring.Turning to look at Mason who also looked really worried, I tried my hardest to console my mother while I asked Mason to get dressed so we could join them in the hospital.We could’ve waited till daybreak but it’s morning already and my mother needed all the support she could

Ava’s POVThe thought of Danny at the hospital was a down point for Mason and I and I was glad that I had my important people to help me with it while Mason works to also get his mind out of it.He had to leave Miami for San Francisco for the monthly business check-up to see how things were going on over there and I knew how much I’d miss him but work is work.“You know you actually have like 10 more minutes before your flight takes off and it’s just us here, the restroom might be vacant too.” I winked, I was at the brink of laughter but I didn’t want to break character.I know that we both needed comic relief and I was glad that Mason didn’t read the wrong meaning to what I’d just said and instead his eyes lit up but he soon burst into laughter as he pulled me into him.“If I had enough time you know I’ll take you right here and now.” He smiled before leaning closer to put his lips on mine.I adjusted his tie and watched as he made his way to the plane. The business check-up would la

Ava’s POVSOME MONTHS LATER.“Mason!” I yelled from the kitchen, I’d completely forgotten that it’s my due date today and my water just broke.The pain I felt from my back down to my uterus was unmatched and just at that point everything seemed irritating to me.I heard Mason’s footsteps coming down the stairs and the fact that he couldn’t have gotten to me faster annoyed everything out of me.“Oh my god!” He screamed in horror when he saw how wet the floor was, “Your water broke? What should I do?” He asked like he didn’t know that the next thing was to get to a hospital.I opened my mouth to speak but everything I wanted to say got caught up in my throat when the sharp pain came again and I clawed on Mason’s hand.Finding a way to release himself from my gasp, I watched as he ran out to get help from Nicole. I never thought the day where my best friend would be annöying would come.“Get your filthy hands off me!” I cried when Nicole touched me and I immediately regretted it because

Ava’s POVIt’s been a long day and the thought of the investor still annoyed me but I didn’t say anything to Mason because I knew that he isn’t going to take it easy.“Gosh, I feel seriously weak.” I groaned after running to throw up for the third time today as Mason helped me on my chair and I couldn’t do anything but place my head on the table to rest for a while.“We need to go to the hospital right now. Let’s go.” Mason ordered, making me laugh and I knew changing his mind would be hard but I tried and told him about how disappointed the investors would be if we failed at this.After a while of talking him into working for a while, Mason made sure that I didn’t stress myself or even leave his office while we both worked.The day soon ended and Mason and I drove to the hospital to run the test. I’ve been feeling lightheaded and nauseous lately and I just knew that I was pregnant but I also didn’t want to be too forward.The test results came out and it confirmed what I already knew

Ava’s POV“I don’t know, I didn’t get it last month too and I know that we haven’t spoken about having a child yet which is why I’m telling you about it now…”“Ava!” Mason’s growl made me swallow whatever it is I wanted to say next as I stared at him with fear written all over me.I was rushing my words like anyone was going to do something horrible to me if I didn’t tell him as fast as I could but it was only because I was really scared.What if he doesn’t want a baby yet? I know he loves me so much but what if he isn’t ready?I’d also planned to take a test but I also didn’t want to find out I’m pregnant alone, I want him to be there with me every step of the way and the fact that he hasn’t even said anything since he called my name was killing me.“It’s fine, we’ll go to the clinic after work today and we’ll find out if you’re pregnant or not,” he started with a smile on his lips as he took my hand in his.“You don’t have to be scared or rush your words while talking to me. I’m jus

Ava’s POVLast night was a memorable one in our new apartment and it was like with each day that passes, the love that I have for Mason just keeps growing and I loved it.Getting ready for work, Mason and I stopped at a diner close to the office to have breakfast before going in for work. The nervousness I usually felt whenever we approached the company when the drama of the news about Mason and I first got out was now nowhere to be found.We finished eating as soon as we could and Mason held my hand as we both got to work and I could swear that I’d already heard a million congratulations today already and the day was just starting.“Congratulations boss,” one of the directors stopped Mason and I as he bumped shoulders with him before bringing out an envelope, “This is for you.” He added, handing Mason the envelope and pecking me on my cheek as we went about our business.Lots of people even took the Liberty to come to our office to congratulate us and they brought gifts too. It took

Ava’s POVI hated the fact that I had to leave Maldives, we got a cab and soon boarded our plane to where our new house was located.It was a long flight but soon we got to the city and we had to board another cab home. It was going to be my first time in the house and I couldn’t wait to see what surprise was waiting for me.“Just tell me what the surprise is?” I asked as I held Mason, begging him to give me reasons why he wouldn’t let me come to the house until it was time to move finally.“If I tell you or show you the picture of the house then where will the surprise be?” He asked and I pouted, I hated to admit it but he was right, it wouldn’t be a surprise anymore if he showed it to me.The cab pulled over and I could swear that I’d almost passed out when I saw the house. It was not only bigger than where we were staying before, it was even more beautiful and I blinked multiple times so that I’ll be sure that this wasn’t a dream.“It’s so beautiful.” I gasped as I took steps close

Ava’s POVTurning on my bed, I groaned as I sniffed and I knew that I wasn’t dreaming, a delicious aroma filled the air and that was what jolted me out of my sleep and not because I’ve had enough sleep.Opening my eyes, I savoured the sweet smell and that was when the sight of where the sweet aroma was coming from came. There was food on my bedside table.Smiling, I opened the covered food on the table to see varieties of foods, there was steak, sandwiches with tea and even a bottle of wine, orange juice and water for me to choose from.Moving to the edge of the bed, I decided to start with the sandwich and even though I didn’t want to, I couldn’t help but compare this current marriage to my first one.Mason had always been nice to me and despite the amount of time we spent together he never got tired of me. I knew he’d never change because he loved me so much but somewhere deep down inside me I still kept the thought of something terrible happening even though I knew waiting for some
