All Chapters of Falling For The Enemy: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Chapter 22Ivy Chase~•~“Do you think Zara is going to attend the engagement party tomorrow?” I asked Parker who had his arms wrapped around my body. I had no idea what was going on between them. I wasn’t even sure if they were still on speaking terms or not. But I decided to ask, just to be sure. Sebastian shrugged. “I don’t know, but she would probably attend. I mean, you did invite her even after everything that happened at her house that day.” He replied, kissing me on my right cheek. “Mhmmm. Good. I really want her to attend. After all, she has been my best friend for a while.” I added, trying not to sound suspicious. I just wanted Sebastian to try and convince her to attend, in case they were still on speaking terms. Sebastian nodded. “Yes, I should probably send her a formal invitation.” I held back my laughter as he easily agreed to have Zara at the party. With everything that happened that day, any reasonable partner would question my decision about having Zara at the

Chapter 24Ivy Chase~•~My eyes darted between the large projector hanging from the ceiling at the front of the stage and back to Zara. I had already given Parker instructions to go ahead but he was wasting time. “Your parents aren’t still here,” Sebastian whispered to me as he placed his hands on my shoulder. I didn’t have time for his endless talks about my parents' presence at the party. “Sebastian, can you please stop? Let’s just enjoy our party.” I replied, my voice barely audible. Sebastian’s eyes narrowed and he seemed to sense my growing irritation. “But…..”I cut him off before he could complete his sentence. “No buts. Just enjoy the party.” I forced a smile as I told him. He leaned back in his seat and raised his hands in mock surrender. “Fine, I’ll enjoy the party.” He said, letting out a defeated sigh. A few minutes later, the protector was turned on and all eyes darted toward it. It was meant to be the time when the media team showcased different phases of me and Se

Chapter 26Ivy Chase~•~My engagement with Sebastian had been the talk of the city for over two weeks. The blogs wouldn’t stop talking about it because of how everything went down. Normally, I wouldn’t read the comments because I didn’t care what strangers on the internet had to say about my life, but this time around, I was curious to know what people had to say about that day. Most people said I was courageous enough to expose my best friend on my special day, but some of them bashed me for embarrassing her like that. Ever since that day, I hadn’t seen Zara. Zara was a social media freak, but she hadn’t made a single social media post since then. I figured she was scared of what people would say to her. Most times, I felt bad about the whole situation, but Zara actually deserved it. I mean, I always saw Zara as my sister and my best friend. I never imagined she would actually stoop so low just to bring me down. She literally tried to put my life in danger. Embarrassing her in

Chapter 28Ivy Chase ~•~“How did you manage to do that?” The event planner asked as we walked out of the jewelry store. She had a surprised expression registered on her face. I smiled, pretending like I had no idea what she was talking about. “How did I manage to do what?” I asked, feeling proud of what I had done. “I didn’t mean to pry, but you’ve been asking for expensive items and he has been buying it for you.” She responded, referring to Sebastian. A soft chuckle escaped my lips. “I’m his fiancé, I don’t have to do anything.” I shrugged my shoulders and held back a laugh.I knew exactly what I was doing. Sebastian was saying yes to everything because of what he had to gain in the end. I actually wasn’t expecting him to agree to spending such an amount on a piece of jewelry. I thought he would snap out and call me out on my recent behavior.But he didn’t. He was just being patient with me because of his ultimate goal. On our way back home, I decided to stop at the mall to

Chapter 30Sebastian ~•~Zara didn’t give up on calling my phone. I had a lot going on and wasn’t in the mood to deal with her. But due to her incessant calls, I had no choice but to answer the phone. “What’s going on?” I asked with a hint of frustration in my voice. “I’ve been calling you for two days but you’ve been ignoring me.” She whined as she responded. “What are you up to?” It was the weekend and I didn’t have anything to do, but I had to come up with an excuse to get her off my back. “I have some paperwork to go over.” I said, trying to sound convincing. Zara’s skepticism was palpable. “Mhmm, but it’s the weekend. I wanted us to hangout.” I sighed, rubbing the back of my head with my hands. “I’m busy, can we reschedule?” Zara scoffed. “No, I’m coming over.” She didn’t even give me a chance to protest. She abruptly ended the call before I could say anything. Zara was unhinged and I knew she was on her way to my house. But I couldn’t have her at my house. It was too r
