All Chapters of The Girl He Shouldn't Desire: His Best Friend's Daughter: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Estelle She watches him leave with his head bowed and without looking back at her. Something the Jace she’d known all her life would never do, she had broken him to the point of no return. He got into his car and drove off, and a tear ran down her face. She wiped it off. Why did it hurt watching him leave when she wanted nothing more in the last three months? He was right; he was a monster to her once, and he broke her heart. Things weren’t always black and white; sometimes it was grey, and so far it has been that way. Jace wouldn’t understand that, and there was no point explaining it to him. At least they hadn’t been. She saw the pain in his eyes, the hurt, and she realised she was as much a monster now as he was three years ago, if not more. He loved her, perhaps even more than she once did, and she saw it, but only got him entangled in her mess. He may not say it, but she knew he was brokenhearted. She pushed the door to the house open and stepped inside. Meeting Darcy awa

“Why are we here?” Jace finally asked when their car came to a stop at the foster care home.“Because I haven’t been completely open or honest with you. I know you haven’t asked why I took the money from Orlando because you didn’t want to push, but I think you should know the truth. Inside there are foster children aged two to nine, and one of them is called Star, and he is ours.”He stayed silent now, as if thinking about what she just told him. The silence weighed on her heart, and she couldn’t stand it. She wanted him to speak, to say something, but he didn’t. Instead, he looked away from her and towards the foster home building standing before them.“Jace, please say something.” She pleaded, her voice small and filled with grief.“He’s two,” was all he said.“Yes,” she nodded and pressed her lips together.“You gave him up.” There was no trace of judgement in his voice, but rather remorse.“I had to. I had studies to focus on, and I was alone and lost. And I didn’t think I was ment

Estelle initially planned to get an Uber, but Jace thought his Lexus was a better option. She had gotten us tickets to see the premiere of the latest DC superhero movie featuring Dwayne Johnson, called The Black Mamba. He hadn’t seen it yet, and her excitement about it got him in the mood. He had an easy schedule for the day, so it was time to plan out the day. Though Estelle had suggested the date, he wanted to make it as easy on her as possible, which made him suggest the Lexus over an Uber. They drove it over to the cinema, and on our way, he asked how her day went. She told me it went well, and that was good to hear. She told him she also paid Orlando the money she owed him, which would bring whatever they had to an end. She thanked him, expressing her gratitude, but it was nothing to him. He would have done much more than that if that was what she needed. Her happiness was all he wanted to see. They arrived, and he got down and then helped open her door for her before offering h

“Daddy!” Elle called, half excited and half terrified at the unannounced appearance of her father. Jace was helping her move into the place Lyon had gotten for her almost three years ago. With clinicals rounded up, it’s almost time for her evaluation and graduation. Her evaluation was tomorrow, and her graduation was in a month. Estelle could finally move out of the hostel.She still couldn’t move in with Jace as he intended because her graduation drew closer, and they knew Lyon would love nothing but to be in attendance. They didn’t want him to find out about them in the wrong way or at the wrong time. They had waited until now to do things right, and that was what they wanted to do. Also, they were keeping off and limiting their interactions in public, being as safe as possible. And though they visited Sky many times in the past month, they did it at different times, both making sure he lacked nothing.Because of their agreement, they had to cut down on their intimacy, not being able

Lyon could sometimes appear possessive and an annoying piece of shit, but he was never this disrespectful.“Where did you get that from?”“I don’t know,” he answered, his voice sounding lost.Lyon didn’t do this. He wouldn’t do this. Yet it felt weird that he had the picture to begin with when the only one she sent it to was Jace.The next slide came on, and she felt agitated for what it would be. But it was less private. It was a picture of her giving a speech in class, but the next was a picture of her mid-thigh, and it caused an awkward mumble amongst those watching.Her heart skipped in her chest. This was yet another photo she had sent to Jace while they were in their private naughty phase, and just like the first, she didn’t know where Lyon got it from.Two of those invited, taking it as their cue, stood up and left the hall, saying their goodbyes.She didn’t want to know; she just wanted to end the slide. “This shouldn’t be up there.”The next slide came on, and it was her with
