All Chapters of Love You As You Are : Chapter 51 - Chapter 55

The boardroom is dead silent, as everyone looks at me expectantly. I looked at each of the faces, silently brooding and wanting to get this over and done with. Neither of them say anything, but I can already detect uneasiness in their eyes. William, on the other hand, is still a prideful bastard, sizing me up with a look that stinks of entitlement. I presume he has no clue that he’s been caught. Kevin, on the other hand, looks like a mouse trapped in the corner with no way out. A mouse about to shit on my floor, if he doesn’t stop with the constipated look on his face. He knows. Good. Indra sits quietly next to me, looking between me and the Roman family. It isn’t long before my phone beeps, letting me know the people I was expecting were here. “Sir, should I-“ “It’s fine. They’ll find their way here,” I said. Indra sits back down. True to my words, the door swung open to reveal my legal advisor, Augustus Stone, followed two policemen. Ther

The fallout was immediate. And it was ugly. Shit ugly on Miles. The media was brutal about the news of our relationship. A relationship they declared ‘an affair’. Four days into the news breakout and I am livid. Infuriated that they dared to condemn my sweet boy to that kind of treatment. I want to make them pay. I want them to lose everything. I want them to feel what he feels. I want them to eat their words. Miles hasn’t let up on how he feels about the fallout. It’s almost as if he’s nonchalant about it. Looks peaceful even. I want to assume that he’d prepared for it. That he’d braced himself for the crash. It’s no use thinking like that. Not when I know him. I know he’s merely hiding his emotions for the people around him. I know he likes to appear that way. Heck, when I’d come to learn about his life back in London. When he’d spilled everything to his mother, leaving her in shambles, he’d hidden away from us. He was feeling the brunt of it. The same way he is feeling it n

My attempt to pull Indra closer was futile, whilst chaos ensued in my hospital room. It’s only a matter of time before the hospital staff gets involved. As of right now, Indra’s father is tearing his ex-wife’s husband a new one, dragging him across the room, all bloodied and bruised up. Laurie is in the corner, bawling her eyes out as she couldn’t possibly think about diffusing the tension. Neither uncle Desmond nor Uncle Sam make an attempt to stop Mr Lopez from tearing into the bastard that dared to touch my best friend. “You have the fucking nerve to show your face,” Mr Lopez growls as he fisted his victim’s collar before driving his fist home. Everywhere he can get him, he doesn’t shy away from beating the lights out of the man. “After what you did to my daughter. You piece of shit,” he proceeded to let out a string of profanities in Spanish, hurling the man to every corner of the room, showing him no mercy. My finger closed around Indra’s wrist, and I sighed in relief as I
