Chapter 48

Emelia’s Pov

“Emelia? What are you doing here?” She inquired.

“What does a person do in a café? Steal books?” I replied sarcastically, making her blush.

“You know that's not what I mean.” She muttered under her breath, and I smiled.

“I've been to this place a lot but I have never seen you here.” I leaned forward, staring at her. Jasmine had lost a lot of weight, she was very cute previously but now… Her beautifully curved chin was beginning to show, and her eyes looked more narrowed. She is going to be a beauty, and for some reason, she resembled someone I've seen but I couldn't place a finger on where I had seen her face.

“Ah… My parents actually own this place. I didn't have school today so I came out to help.”

I blinked at her, slightly surprised, “Wait… Your parents own this place?”

Jasmine nodded with a shy smile, wiping her hands on the apron tied around her waist, “Yeah. It’s been in our family for years. Just a small local business, nothing fancy.”

    Emelia’s Pov Her back was to me, her shoulders trembling slightly. As I drew closer, I could see the sheen of tears in her eyes, streaking down her already pale face. She must have been listening. The public apology, Elijah’s unexpected coldness towards her, and his clear favoritism towards me, I knew that it was all too much for her and I wanted to rub it in more. “Brother!” I called out Elijah's name. He turned around to stare at me, eyes wide. I skipped towards him, and linked my arm together with his, ignoring the slight discomfort that came with the action. “Emelia?” Elijah murmured but he didn't let go of my arm. “Actually…” I said shyly, “I was wondering if you could get something for me. I've been having trouble sleeping these days after what Ethan did to me and with the exams coming up soon, I don't want me sleep schedule to affect my performance. So I…” I gulped. Right now, I was staking my bet on Elijah wanting to be a better brother, if he disagreed to my request, it w

    Chapter 144 Emelia’s Pov Mr. Mike looked a little flustered, glancing at Elijah who was now leaning casually against the Dean’s desk, observing me with an unreadable expression. Elijah stepped forward, his gaze meeting mine, “He meant that your admission into Nile Academy wasn’t as straightforward as you thought it was.” He paused, a flicker of something unreadable in his eyes, “Mom and Dad didn’t want you to come to Nile Academy. Mom said that if you came here, as Ethan was here, you would not be able to focus on your studies. Nora had told them that you were obsessed with Ethan and would do anything to get him. I don’t know how you, Ethan and Nora met before you were adopted into the house but she was able to convince mom and dad that you were a stalker. So coming to the school would make you worse than you were.” I kept shut at that. Considering what happened in my past life and how I had badgered Ethan to marry me, I would say that their concerns were valid. My cheeks fl

    Emelia’s Pov “Let's go out to speak. The Dean also wanted to see you anyways.” Mr Mike gestured outside and without a word, the three of us left the classroom to the Dean's office. Once we got there, Nora and Ethan were in the office as well. Nora looked blatantly surprised to see Elijah walk into the office but her surprise quickly turned into happiness as she rushed forward. “First brother! You're here!” She squealed, her hands outstretched to hold Elijah's. Elijah, with a subtle, almost imperceptible shift of his body, dodged Nora’s outstretched hands. She missed her target entirely, stumbling forward slightly, catching herself just before she completely lost her balance. A tiny, almost imperceptible snicker escaped my lips, quickly stifled by pressing my hand to my mouth. Nora shot me a furious glare, her face contorted in a mix of embarrassment and rage, but I simply met her gaze with an innocent blink.Elijah merely offered her a cool, polite nod, his expression unchanging, “

  • The Billionaire's Obsession: Reborn For Revenge   Chapter 142

    Emelia’s Pov His smile was soft, almost gentle, a stark contrast to the stern, imposing image I’d held of him from my past life. His dark hair, neatly combed, framed a face that was undeniably handsome, with sharp cheekbones and intelligent eyes that seemed to hold a hint of amusement. He was dressed impeccably, as always, in a dark suit that somehow managed to look both formal and effortlessly stylish, emphasizing his lean, athletic build. He exuded an aura of calm authority, a quiet power that was both compelling and intimidating.My first, instinctual thought was to run away. Just like I always had. The guilt of my past-life actions, the shame of being the non-loved child who didn't belong, clawed at me. My feet, almost on their own accord, took a small step backward, poised for flight.But Elijah seemed to anticipate my every move. Before I could even fully turn, he took a step forward, his hand reaching out. He gently, yet firmly, held my hands, his touch surprisingly warm. His

    Chapter 141 Emelia’s Pov “What?” I stood up from the couch in shock, my eyes widening, “Elijah is back?! But why?! Why did he come back?? He said he was never going to come back here or at least, not now!” I yelled, my voice echoing in the house. “I'm also confused about that. But I think with what has been happening lately, he was going to come back sooner or later. Dad is paralysed so he's bedridden and someone has to take care of the company. The moment he came back this evening, he went straight to the company. Elijah asked me to bring you to the RedField Mansion the moment I got discharged. The mansion is being rebuilt already.” I bit my lips and started chewing on my nails, pacing around. In my past life, apart from a few occasions where it called for it, Elijah never came back. I only saw him maybe thrice throughout my entire stay in the RedField manor. It felt like he always steered clear of me. A maid had told me back then that it was because he didn't want to be contamin

    Chapter 140 Emelia’s Pov His eyes, which had been so guarded a moment ago, flickered with a raw, undeniable desire. He leaned in, slowly, his gaze locked on my lips. My heart leaped into my throat, anticipating the delicious press of his mouth against mine. I closed my eyes, bracing myself for the exhilarating rush.But the kiss never came.Instead, I felt a cool, smooth pressure on my lips, distinct from the warmth of his mouth. My eyes snapped open. Kaidon was holding a small, white tube, and he was carefully, almost meticulously, applying more of the bitter ointment to my swollen lips. He pulled back, his expression unreadable, and clicked the cap back onto the tube with a sharp, decisive sound.“There.” He said, his voice surprisingly even, though a faint flush still lingered on his cheeks. He tossed the tube back into the first aid box and then pushed the box away, “Now that’s taken care of.” He stood up, towering over me, “You look exhausted, Emelia. You should get some sleep.
