To Hate My Stepbrother Chapter 180
Ava’s POV Our parents rushed out of their room and I sought solace in my moms arms as I cried, “Mason, he’s…” I stuttered but whatever I wanted to say got caught in my throat and I couldn’t even make out the right words.“I can’t lose him, mum, I can’t.” I cried as Danny drove as fast as he could to the hospital while Mason laid on my mother and my lap.Stroking his hair lightly, I leaned in to kiss his hair and sniffled. How could he be so stupid, how could he have charged towards Chad knowing that there were other armed men around?I was mad at him but I was also scared of losing him. Hurriedly, Mason was rushed to the ER and after a while the doctor came out to finally talk to us after asking him if Mason would be alright for the umpteenth time.“He’s in shock right now,” he spoke and my sob became louder as I hugged Danny. I can’t lose Mason, not now, not ever.“But he’s going to be fine, we stitched the wound and we’re lucky it was just a graze.” He told us but it felt as though

Mason’s POVI was still in the hospital but I was glad that I had Ava with me. The fear in her eyes when the incident that landed me in the hospital happened was so evident.I could tell that she’d imagined the worst while they were all waiting for me to wake up. The way she’d held me, sniffled and told me not to ever think of dying just when I’d proposed to her made my stomach flutter.What if something horrible had happened to me? How was she going to live?My gaze was fixated on her as she concentrated on dressing the wound on my arm even though the doctors had done that already.“Ouch! That hurts.” I winced and Ava immediately moved her hand away from my wound as she looked at me with concern written all over her face.“Are you okay?” She asked in a low tone as she searched my eyes for answers that I was trying to hide. She didn’t hurt me, I just faked it.“I didn’t know it’ll hurt that much, do I have to call the doctors?” She asked, turning to go call the doctor when I pulled he

Ava’s POVIt’s been a week since Mason was discharged from the hospital and he’d even gotten better than he was already. Our lives had also gone back to the way it was before but better this time.Getting ready to go to the police station with Mason, we got there and we were informed that the case had already been charged to court.Chad and his gang were charged with multiple crimes considering Mason and I weren’t their first victims, they were just smart enough to be able to get away with them but I was glad that it wasn’t for long.They were sentenced to life imprisonment with hard work and without Parole or bail so no matter how hard they tried they can never get out of jail,Mason’s mother on the other hand was also sentenced with aiding and abetting a kidnap and other offences that got her 25 years in jail.Mason’s mother, Chad and his gang all have outstanding restraining orders so even if Mason’s mother got out of jail she can’t come anywhere near us or her jail sentence will b

We’d already shop for the perfect birthday gift to give her and I couldn’t wait to meet her again.It’s been a while since I last saw Nicole’s daughter and knowing how well she loved playing around me, I looked forward to attending the birthday soon.“Nicole!” I called when we got to the party and Nicole and her daughter looked happy to see me, “Happy birthday, birthday girl.” I smiled as I took her from her mother’s arms and planted a kiss on her cheek.Mason handed her parents a cash gift in an envelope along with the wedding’s invitation card while I brought out the multiple toys that I got for the girl.The party went well and soon we cut the cake and while the kids had juice as they played around, Mason, Nicole, Ryan and I had wine as we talked about the wedding.“I really can’t wait to be your chief bridesmaid.” Nicole smiled as she hugged me again and wh

Ava’s POVDays after Nicole’s daughter’s birthday, Mason and I moved back to San Francisco and soon we started moving our things to Miami.I was going to miss a lot of things in San Francisco but we also needed to move to Miami as soon as possible after the wedding because of the business there.Mason had gone there on a one day trip with the tow truck so he could check the house and I had no idea why but he really wouldn’t give me any details about the house anytime I asked.He’d always claim it was a surprise and as much as I love surprises, I just want to know how the house looked, it’s our house but he still kept me in the dark.It’s a one day trip and Mason’s supposed to be back. I knew it hadn’t been long but I couldn’t help but miss him. The door flew open and I sprung to my feet as I went directly to Mason and threw myself at him.“Welcome back,” I smiled, kissing him and leading him to the couch, “I thought you wouldn’t be back today anymore.” I added, it was getting late and

Ava’s POVA day before the wedding, Nicole, my mum and some other women from work and school and we all decided to have a girls night out.It was so fun and I just couldn’t believe that I’ll be getting married this soon. I know that I was the one who couldn’t wait to be married but I also didn’t think it would get here so soon.“The new bride seem to be having cold feet.” Nicole, who, nothing could easily get past, noticed and announced it to the group of women who burst out laughing.“It’s not like that, it’s just that on one hand I can’t wait to be married to Mason, I mean, he’s everything but also it’s so damn scary that my wedding is tomorrow!” I added and the room fell silent.I could tell that the married one in the group knew what I was talking about, especially Nicole and my mother.“I understand and I’m going to admit that it does get a little scary especially since the wedding is so near,” my mother started and I heaved out a heavy breath as I stared at her when she took my

It was the day of the event already and Nicole had looked everywhere for Ava but she was nowhere to be found. “Ryan and I will just go check outside, she’s probably there,” Nicole suggested to Ava’s mother who was already so nervous but immediately agreed.“What the hell?!” Nicole gasped when she saw Mason and Ava asleep at the garden of the event and not only that, they looked like an absolute mess.Danny had seen both of them hungover but there was nothing he could and knowing he was responsible he silently hoped that help quickly came for them and that no one would know that he was responsible for giving them the permission to drink last night.“What the fuck do you both think you’re doing?!” Nicole shouted as she smacked Ava who mumbled nothing before going back to sleep again.“Ryan please take Mason and I’ll handle Ava.” Nicole told Ryan who woke Mason up and thankfully he was slightly in a better state of mind than Ava is.The couples said their byes to each other before Nicol

Mason’s POVStaring back at myself in the mirror, I knew my cheeks were red because I was blushing and I really couldn’t help the excitement every inch of me was feeling.I’m getting married today!Knotting my tie, I adjusted my shirt and turned to look at the men already dressed up and ready to go down to the beach house with me.“Who’s getting married today?!” Ryan yelled as he spun me around like I was a little kid.“Mason!” The whole group howled and I couldn’t help the laughter that bursted out of my mouth as everyone tried to reach for their phones so we could take selfies.Soon, we all stood to take normal pictures together while shaking and bumping shoulders with the groomsmen.“I can’t wait for Mason to see how beautiful Ava would look today, his eyes will literally pop out of their sockets.” Ryan joked and I laughed.He was right, I can’t wait to see her walking down the aisle and knowing that today is the D-day where I’ll get to take her as my wife, my excitement just skyro

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.

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 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
