Crashed Into Love. のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

      “Sir your son is here.” Derick informed the man completely occupied in front of the computer screen, mouthing something under his breath as his slender fingers stroked one key after another, paying little to no attention to the presence of the two standing before him.     “Father, what is it that you need?” Jeremy asked calmly not bothering to make himself comfortable by taking a seat. On his way from school his mind kept wondering around in circles, trying to both figure out what his dad wanted and how to convince him to cancel the business marriage agreement made with Phillip Hudson.      “Derick, you may leave.” Without pausing his actions, Thomas instructed as if he hadn’t heard a thing. However, as soon as the room was clear, leaving the duo to privately discuss their family matters. The man stopped his typing, clenched his fingers into a fist, huffed a few times before fi

  “Dude what happened to you yesterday? You disappeared after practice.” Marcus complained instantly as he saw his friend stepping closer to his direction at the entrance of the school’s building.     “I don’t want to talk about it.” Jeremy scuffed in annoyance recalling the conversation between him and his dad. He thought it didn’t matter what nonsense and ridiculous threats the latter issued since he won’t actually be that cruel to the woman he loved, to Patricia Adams. Unfortunately, Thomas felt like he was too close to success to fail now. So, he rudely warned Chelsey to keep her brother in check or else his next target would be their mother.     “Sheesh, who burst your bubble early in the morning?” Anger could clearly be seen on his best friend’s face.      “Why are you so gossipy? can’t you mind your own business for once, and leave me the hell alone!”

   Why would anyone want to pretend to be Fake Stevens? Especially someone decked-out in obviously quite expensive branded clothing. Or was this the real deal? Did the true daughter of Richard Stevens finally decided to be recognized at West-Bay Academy? If so, then where did the mac version suddenly disappeared to today? Why would Jeremy Adams, the usually neutral uninvolved teen, seem so drawn to protecting or rather speaking up for the girl?      The class room was filled with bickering, guessing, mockery…. Unrestrained gossiping in the presence of those being talked about. Taking the opportunity, Jeremy cleared his throat lifted his head with a serious expression as if focusing upfront and lowered his voice asking, “why did you change?”      Uncertain if the question was meant for her, Erika foolishly moved her head from left to right then tilted sideways with a frown saying, “what exactly ar

  “Please forgive Miss Archer, she seems a bit confused today.”   “Its okay sir, perhaps you too were a little baffle and out of focus, not being able to recognize me so easily.” Erika teased.     “Alright, can somebody please explain what is going on? Are you okay sweetheart?” Richard asked once again.     “Don’t worry about it dad, I think mom would be able to understand by now, she’ll fill you in later. Sorry to drag you guys all the way here for such a silly charade.”     “Are you sure you’ll be fine?” He lovingly stroked her messy bun pony tail with a concerned frown, wrinkling his slightly aged face.     “Of course, she will be fine. I can guarantee you Mr. Stevens that she will be in capable hands, we won’t let anything happen to her. Her sudden change just caught us by surprise that’s all. I can assure you from today o

   “Are you guys sure you don’t want me to come along? I can be the entertainment for the evening, Science projects are way too boring and technical.”     “Marcus, for the fifth and final time, the answer is still no! we don’t need the dead weight.” Jeremy irritably replied to his friend that kept rambling on the entire ride, until the car finally made it to his home.       “Sheesh, always so rude. Sorry for the poor soul that ends up marring you.” The comedian teased before hopping out of the Audi, slowing retreating backwards with a sad puppy face as if being abandoned by the world and kicked out on the lonely streets.      “Drama queen.” Jeremy scuffed at his lame childish act.      ‘Wow! Is he even capable of being nice?’ Erika thought noticing how easy it was for the teen to be annoyed by his best friend. ‘Maybe he was
