Semua Bab Calor Del Cielo: Bittersweet Taste Of Your Love: Bab 91 - Bab 100

I confessed to Kaycee about Cedrick Miguel and me after she got back from her mission. What surprised me was that she wasn't shocked at all. I had been expecting her to be mad, but she wasn't."I was actually expecting him to start wooing you again as soon as he found out that you and Inigo had broken up," she said, her eyes searching mine."Aren't you... mad? Aren't you going to tell me I'm making a mistake?" I asked her, feeling confused by her reaction."Why would I be mad at you? You just followed your heart. Besides, Cedrick Miguel clearly loves you, based on all the crazy things he's done just to get a chance with you. I can't see any reason to deny him the opportunity to prove his feeling. Don't be so hard on yourself, Gav. There's nothing wrong with wanting to give yourself a chance at happiness.""Thank you," I whispered, tears stinging my eyes. "Thank you for understanding, for not judging me.""When have I ever done that to you?" she teased gently. I responded with a warm, s

After dinner, Cedrick Miguel took me to his room. His bedroom in their mansion was huge, almost as big as his bedroom in his penthouse. But unlike his penthouse, which had a more masculine interior, his room in their mansion felt homier and more elegant in design. It had floor-to-ceiling windows, a modern fireplace, and a massive TV that promised a cozy evening. Even his walk-in closet was grander, more spacious than the one in his penthouse."You have a spacious and beautiful room," I told him as I walked around, inspecting every detail in his room.My breath caught in my throat when he suddenly pulled me close, gently guiding me down onto the soft expanse of the bed."You've been inspecting my room for a while now, and you haven't been paying attention to me," he said, his voice a low, husky murmur that sent shivers down my spine. "Let me kiss you. I've been wanting to kiss you for a while now," he confessed, his eyes dark with desire as he hovered above me.

That same night, my father summoned me to come home and talk. Even though I already knew the reason and felt a knot of dread tightening in my stomach, I still went, clinging to the hope that I could explain myself and be understood. Cedrick Miguel insisted on coming with me to explain things, but I refused. I wanted to handle this alone first, hoping my father would believe and understand me. His and Allyssa's opinions meant the world to me. When I got to the house, only Aunt Chelsea, who looked furious, and Dad, with his unreadable expression, were there to meet me."Leanna can't even bear to face you. She's been crying all day. We already know everything. She told us she saw you kissing Cedrick Miguel at their mansion earlier when she visited his parents. How could you do this to your stepsister?" Chelsea spat out, her words hitting me like a slap, each syllable laced with venom."Cedrick Miguel and I have been together for almost two weeks now. I chose

I was walking down the hallway, heading back to the office, when my phone buzzed with a call from Allyssa."Hey! What's up?" I greeted, trying to keep my tone light.But the moment I heard her sobs on the other end of the line, a knot of dread tightened in my stomach. "Hey! What's wrong?" I asked, my voice laced with concern."Gav... Leanna's been taken to the hospital. She... she tried to commit suicide. She slashed her wrists."The words hit me like a physical blow, stealing the air from my lungs. My blood ran cold, and a wave of numbness washed over me, leaving me reeling in shock. "W-Where are you now?" I managed to stammer, my voice barely a whisper."I'm on my way to the hospital," she choked out between sobs. "Okay, I'm going there too. Send me the details of which hospital she's at," I said, trying to sound more composed than I felt.Hanging up, I rushed out of the office, driving to the hospital without a word to anyone

I decided to sunbathe that afternoon after swimming in the sea. The sun wasn't too harsh, and its rays felt warm. I lay down on one of the empty sun loungers and rested there. Because of the gentle sound of the sea and the breeze, I didn't realize I had fallen asleep. I was startled awake when I suddenly felt like someone was watching me. When I opened my eyes, I was shocked to see Cedrick Miguel standing in front of me, blocking my view of the sun. His hands were planted on his hips, his posture rigid, and his gaze burned into me. From his aura and the way he was looking at me, I could sense his anger and irritation as he looked down at me."So here you are, basking in relaxation, without a care for those you left behind in the Capital! I was nearly dying from worry, scouring everywhere for you, and you're here living the best time of your life!" His voice was laced with anger and resentment.I slowly sat up, rubbing my eyes, questioning if this was real. I was stunne
