To Hate My Stepbrother Chapter 47
Ava’s POV The night passed with Mason and I talking about things before we finally decided to go to our respective rooms.I had the best time with him and I also looked forward to spending more time with him.The day went by really quickly and we both decided to go out and get some snacks for ourselves in the afternoon.Grabbing a sweater, Mason and I walked to a small, traditional restaurant for burgers and fries. Everyone there was nice and we’re both used to the misconceptions of us dating.Laughing, Mason and I spoke and he told me a little bit about his childhood but I noticed he never mentioned his mother. I’d wanted to ask when I remembered what Danny told me.I already knew what happened with his mum and asking him more questions might only make him uncomfortable and that’s the last thing I wanted to happen to him.Things between us have been going on smoothly. Shutting my mouth, I decided to keep mute about his mother and concluded he was going to talk about it whenever

Ava’s POV I couldn’t ignore the melodious sound of the guitar playing and when I went to the balcony to check, there he was.Mason was the one playing the guitar and the way he held it was as though it was a really special guitar, his fingers trailing off the strings made my jaw drop in awe.Putting one foot in front of the other, I wanted to go near him but I knew how Mason could be. Going near him might just set him off and he’ll probably get mad at me for ruining his music.Turning, I tried to walk away when my dress got stuck on the door knob and I tripped, causing Mason to stop playing and making him turn to me.Why do clothes and door knobs usually pick out the wrong time to flirt with each other?I turned to look at Mason and I’d expected him to get mad at me and fume in rage about how I’d ruined his session but the glint in his eyes was one no one could ignore.He laughed at me instead and although I was embarrassed, hearing him laugh made me burst out in laughter.Tuggin

Ava’s POV We finished talking and we both went to our room but I wanted to sleep when the rain started and it came with a huge thunderstorm.I hate rain.Leaving my bed, I wrapped my blanket around my body as I got out of bed and walked down to the sitting room and even though staying there alone would be scary, I couldn’t sleep in my own room alone.I laid on the couch when I heard footsteps and I looked to see Mason making his way down the stairs but he never lifted his gaze from his phone.A small smile escaped my lips as I laid down more comfortably, I’m not alone anymore and I’d be able to sleep well now.Even though I already knew he came downstairs because of me, he didn’t say a word or vocally announce his presence.His eyes fixated on his phone and he was smiling at something on the phone, my stomach churned and I had no idea why I felt that way.“Ava?” Mason called as he tapped me lightly and I opened my eyes to see him in front of me, I was already dozing off and ready

Ava’s POV Ignoring Mason didn’t go as I’d planned it, I didn’t think ignoring him would be so difficult but it was, because the moment I saw him, I felt myself calm at just the sight of him and I knew that I wanted to spend the rest of the day with him.I shouldn’t even be mad at him, he was only trying to keep me safe and away from predators, he’s older so he knew better.The crippling feeling of guilt soon starts to eat me up and I couldn’t help but just try to apologize and hope he accepts my apology.“I’m sorry for acting like a jerk the other day,” I apologized and Mason’s head sprung up as he lifted his gaze from his phone to meet mine.“It’s fine…”“No, No, it’s not fine because you were only trying to look out for me and I spoke to you rudely which I should've done so, no, it’s really not fine and stop acting like it is!” I immediately cut in before he could say another word.Anytime I try to apologize for something stupid that I’ve done he always makes it seem like I shoul

Ava’s POV The day went by quickly and we both agreed on taking an evening walk. The walk was slightly silent and I knew he was curious and wanted to know why I was so scared of thunderstorms.“So, in case you’re wondering what my stupid fear of Thunderstorm is,” I started and although the topic was uncomfortable to talk about for me, I wanted him to know why I got so scared.“You don’t have to talk about…”“I lost my dad in a thunderstorm,” I continued, he’d wanted to tell me not to talk about it but I wanted to, at least to him, “he’d gone somewhere and had even promised to be back in an hour.” I added.The memory of my father leaving the house that day was still fresh in my head and I still couldn’t get over the call of my dad being found dead.“That’s why I get paranoid when waiting for people, you know, when they leave and it starts to rain heavily? I’m always unable to take it and most of the time, I’ll always think of the negative side because of what I’ve been through.” I e

Ava’s POV Everything that happened last night at the restaurant couldn’t leave my head no matter how hard I tried. Cocooned in my blanket, I’d made up my mind not to go downstairs for the rest of the day.“Ava! Breakfast is ready!” That would be the third time he’s calling out to me but his face is the last thing I wanted to see this morning.“Ava? I swear I’ll break the door down if you don’t answer me now and have breakfast.” He threatened and I could tell that he was already by the door.“I’m sick, carry on and I’ll join you later.” I lied as I called back to him. I wasn’t sick, I just didn’t want to be in a close range with him.He confuses me a lot and I have no idea what to do about my feelings for him. I didn’t even feel like this when Xander kissed me so why am I feeling like this now after our little eye contact and hand holding?Just hearing him talk makes my heart race, his smile makes my breathless, and the sound of his laughter makes my stomach fill up with a weird h

Ava’s POV As I blinked my eyes open, I saw Mason’s eyes widened and filled up with shock and surprise. I was even taken aback by my abrupt action.What is going on with me and why on earth did I kiss him?Getting back to my senses, I pulled my lips from his and pushed him away at once, while my cheeks felt like it was on fire. I can’t believe I had just kissed Mason! He’s definitely disgusted by me right now.Why did he also allow me to do that? He could’ve done something to stop me!So many thoughts were currently running through my head and my heart was lodged in my throat.“GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!” I yelled next, holding my head as I paced around trying to register what I’d just done.I saw the shocked look on Mason’s face and I just knew that he must’ve been wondering why I kissed him and just dismissed him like nothing happened.It was my fault, not his. It was my action, not his, so why am I taking it out on him?I don’t want to see him right now, I don’t want him anywhere

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
To Hate My Stepbrother Chapter 198
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
