CHAPTER TEN

When Ridley proposed "letting loose," the first thing I thought of was a club and getting wasted. After all, he had already offered me a cup of wine. I was insistent on refusing and going back to work. He kept trying to get me to accept, but I was hellbent on going back to Stetson Hotel despite the backlash I expected to receive after what had happened. Multiple articles had already started appearing, and Ridley had shown me some of them.

The last thing I expected was to end up in an

  • ENTANGLED BETWEEN BROTHERS   TWENTY-SEVEN: BLOOM

    My vision was blurry, and my body felt heavy. I could feel the weight of my body when I got up from the bed and walked to the bathroom in the most disoriented way. Every step felt heavier than the last, and I wanted nothing more than to go back into bed and rot for the entire day until I was not feeling like a zombie that could not control its own body. Even though it felt like an out-of-body experience, I struggled through my bathroom routine and ended with a cold shower. The heaviness I felt when I woke up had reduced significantly, though I could still feel the remainder of the hangover.Ridley was seated on the bed, scrolling on his phone when I walked out of the bathroom. He looked up once he heard me and put the phone on the bedside table. Unlike me, he was put together and did not look like he was cast for the Thriller music video. After setting his phone aside, he stood up and walked over to me. His green eyes scanned me, as if searching for any bruise or injury. I looked at h

  • ENTANGLED BETWEEN BROTHERS   TWENTY -SIX: NEW RELATIONSHIPS

    I was a bit loopy when I woke up, but nothing a cold shower and some food could not fix. Ridley had already set the table with breakfast delectables by the time I was done dressing up and ready. The smell of the food wafted through the entire hallway, and as I had expected, Lou was already sitting at the table with a plate of food already at her mercy. As if sensing my presence, Ridley turned to face me and smiled. I walked up to him. He pulled me into his arms and kissed my forehead. "Good morning, beautiful." He greeted, and I smiled back. "Good morning," I replied before he placed a light kiss on my lips. "I should have warned you not to feed her, or else she won't leave." I joked, referring to Lou. She looked up and glared before going back to the meal she was enjoying too much. "I need all the energy I can get for the day. Stetson drama is so exhausting." She sounded genuinely amused in between the chewing and talking. Ridley pulled out a chair for me, and I took a seat and d

  • ENTANGLED BETWEEN BROTHERS   TWENTY-FIVE: THE FINAL RULING

    TWENTY-FIVEEverything was spiralling around me. Okay, perhaps that was an exaggeration but I had to make my decision and I was still so unsure even after speaking to Harris, Lou, Lisa and some random man in a cafe. Lou told me to ignore Mr Stetson's offer because it was "scraps" compared to what I would gain if we continued with court whereas Lisa had offered advice that was basically, 'it's all up to you, but I think you should take Mr Stetson's offer'.Ridley had made clear what his stance was in all this, voicing his opinion more than necessary. In spite of everything, I knew that this was my life, Ridley's opinion or personal vendetta was not going to affect my decision in any way, I would not let it. I did the one thiing that had never failed me, visiting my parents. The last flowers I had brought had dried up and the petals blown away by the wind, I removed the dry flowers and replaced them with the fresh ones I came with. The groundskeeper stood far from me but I could feel h

  • ENTANGLED BETWEEN BROTHERS   TWENTY-FOUR: PERFECT PAST

    TWENTY-FOUR (2 YEARS AGO)The air was getting colder as the days went on and in spite of the gradually changing weather, Lou and I had yet to call a repair-man to fix our heater, it would only be a while before we decided to stop putting it off. The cold chill of the night that made me pull my sheets to my neck is what reminded me of the fact that it would only get colder. The days had gone by so fast, if it were not for the fact that I was like a giddy teenager counting everday since I had been asked out, I would have lost track of everything. My phone rang with a notification and I excitedly opened it and was filled with excitement when Ashton's name flashed on the screen. I opened his text and smiled when I saw that he would be coming to see me."Let me guess, it's loverboy?" Lou spoke from the kitchen while cooking something and my lack of response answered her rhetorical question. "You guys have been spending too much time together, I feel like I have no social life since I'm no

  • ENTANGLED BETWEEN BROTHERS   TWENTY-THREE: PERFECT

    TWENTY-THREE"This is the exact kind of thing you would expect from Emmett Stetson." Ridley scoffed while rolling his eyes. Immediately after my day had ended, I had rushed to find Ridley mainly because of what had happened and also because I did not have a car. At first after I told him everything he was livid but settled down and had nothing good to say about his father. "What do you think I should do?" I directed the question to Harris, who I had called to come to the apartment and he had arrived shortly after us and I told both of them what had happened at once. Harris remained silent, in deep contemplation."You're going to decline. There's no reason for you to back out, Ashton was the dirty scumbag and it's not like we're going to lose." Ridley spoke before Harris could voice his proffesional opinion-the one I actually sought. "Emmett only went as far as doing this because he knows that we have this won, and he doesn't want to see his precious son crippled right under him." He

    TWENTY-TWOMy head felt heavy, so did my feet and the rest of my body. I could hardly make see the things around me but somehow I had managed to get to the penthouse and to the front door. Thank the heavens Lou had ordered an uber because I would have not been able to drive. At first when I spoke of going home, Lou had refused and argued that I sleep over but I had work the next day. I groaned as I opened the door and sauntered inside, a part of me was sad when I did not see Ridley seated or pacing the room because he was worried for me, on the other hand I was glad he wasn't there because I was not ready to argue with him again. I made it to my room and almost instantly fell onto the bed. A full day of exhaustion, annoyance, and beer could make you like that, tired.The sound of the alarm woke me up hours later and I could only slowly raise my body and groggily shuffle from the bed and to the bathroom after turning off the alarm. somehow I got through my morning routine and the sho
