All Chapters of Go Away, My Stepbrother: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Chapter 12As Roxanne entered the room, her reproachful words hit me like a slap in the face. "Oprah, why didn't you answer your phone? You made me so worried," she scolded, her tone laced with concern.With a mouthful of food, I mumbled a half-hearted response, "Do you still worry about me?"Her reaction was immediate, sitting beside me and insisting, "What kind of question is that? You're my daughter. I would be concerned if I didn't reach you on the phone."Her words stung, a reminder of the fragile bond between us. I nodded in acknowledgment, but inside, I couldn't shake the feeling of resentment that lingered beneath the surface.Trying to distract myself, I focused on my soup, but Roxanne's next question pierced through my attempt at indifference. "Did you argue with your brother yesterday?"Surprised, I asked, "Did he tell you that?"Roxanne's response was cryptic, hinting at a deeper understanding between her and my brother. "He didn't say much. Your brother isn't the type to g

Chapter 14Burgess, his expression faintly amused, approached the bed with a smile playing on his lips. "Even though you really enjoyed it last night, you want me to pretend it didn't happen?" he remarked, his tone teasing. Before I could formulate a response, he continued, "Naive!""You're naive!" I snapped, irritation prickling at my nerves as Burgess's words grated on me. Standing on the bed, wrapped tightly in the quilt, I attempted to assert dominance, as if I could somehow intimidate him with my height.But Burgess didn't seem fazed by my display of defiance. Instead, he casually wiped my wet hair with a towel, his voice calm and deliberate. "Since it has happened, running away isn't an option," he suggested, almost casually. "How about this? Our bodies fit well anyway, so I think we can maintain this relationship in the future."His proposal caught me off guard, and I couldn't help but widen my eyes in disbelief. I laughed bitterly, my anger bubbling to the surface. "Maintain th

Chapter 16As I spoke, I laughed, the sound bubbling up from the depths of my soul. "Thank you, doctor," I said sincerely, gratitude swelling within me."You're welcome," the doctor replied with a warm smile, his eyes filled with kindness. "Oh, since you're pregnant now, you should be careful with medicine. I'll also prescribe some ointment to apply on your nose daily, which will take about a week."I touched my stomach gently, feeling a mix of emotions swirling inside me. "Right, the baby."But then, a heavy realization weighed down on me. It was Burgess’ and my child!It was eleven o'clock at night when we finally emerged from the hospital, the weight of the news settling in around us like a heavy fog.Burgess drove with a cautiousness I hadn't seen before, his eyes occasionally flickering to my belly, where our unborn child rested. I could sense his concern, his determination to protect this new life growing within me.But despite the warmth of his gaze, my heart was heavy with a di

Chapter 18“You’re so self-righteous!" Burgess looked at her as if she was a fool, "You don't need to meddle in my affairs."Zoey felt highly wronged.To please Burgess, she had fallen out with Oprah without hesitation. But in the end, Burgess blamed her.So, Zoey couldn’t help but think if Burgess must have fallen in love with another woman and she was upstairs now. Otherwise, he would not have treated her like this!Zoey stared at the upstairs with resentment, endured the grievance, and left the villa. “Just wait and see! I’ll find out who the bitch secretly kept at home by Burgess is.”One afternoon, when Oprah was going to take a nap, she vaguely heard the sound of flashing lights. She immediately opened her eyes and saw that the maid Emma had come in with a bowl of soup.Seeing Oprah wake up, Emma panicked, "Miss Oprah, did I wake you up? I… I will walk gently next time."Oprah clearly felt there was a flash shining on her earlier, but it turned out to be just the maids who opened

Chapter 20Then she quickly hung up the phone and urged the driver to drive faster, thinking she must arrive at the airport before the assistant could react. So, even if Burgess chased her by then, she would have already boarded the plane.It takes about twenty minutes to go from the hospital building to the garden downstairs. With so many people entering the hospital and everyone waiting for the elevator, the assistant should wait about ten minutes before she could arrive downstairs, so she decided to start taking the stairs.By the time the assistant finally arrived at the garden, more than twenty minutes had passed.The assistant called Oprah again, "Miss Oprah, tell me your position in the garden? I'll go find you."Oprah looked at the airport where she was about to arrive and said with a smile, "I'm on the bench beside the jasmine flowers."She didn't even know if the hospital had jasmine flowers or not, she was just saying it casually. But she hoped she could make the assistant t
