Puppy Love のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 81 - チャプター 90

~Liam~ Following my conversation with Harper, I recognised the need to put the matter concerning Adrian to rest. The determination in my sister's eyes was crystal clear; she wasn't willing to let him go, regardless of whether we supported her or not. I understood that the best way to be there for her was to respect her decision and offer my support, even if I felt uneasy about it. However, I couldn't ignore the nagging concern about this Racheal woman and her involvement in the situation. It struck me as peculiar that she hadn't seen fit to mention it to Justin. Did he already know, or was she perhaps too embarrassed to bring it up with him? I anticipated getting to the bottom of this when he returned. "I have no choice but to support you, Harper. If your feelings for Adrian are this strong, then I'm with you all the way. We'll dig into the events together," I assured her, and she wiped away her tears, nodding gratefully. "Thank you, Liam. Honestly, I think you should meet him. He'

~Sophia~ Liam stood tall, exuding his usual handsome charm. He appeared more mature in a truly captivating way. Though the smile I believe he had before I opened the door had disappeared, I refrained from probing further. My gaze averted, I retreated into the room, fidgeting with the wig atop my head, eager to shield my face. The disguise still clung to me, as I hadn't found a moment to remove it. "Not pretty anymore, han?" I nervously quipped, met with his silence. He followed me into the room, closing the door gently behind him. At that moment, I wished the ground would swallow me whole, consumed by both shame and anger. I waited for him to break the silence, but he remained mute. Instead, he drew me into his embrace, enfolding me in his strong arms. "Goddess, Sophia," he finally uttered, his voice trembling. Tears welled in my eyes as I clung to him, unable to hold back my emotions. "I'm grateful they found you," he continued, his voice shaking with emotion. "Thank you, Li. Th

~Justin~ After Harper had made her request and left my office, I was relieved that she understood my need for space. However, there was a troubling sensation deep within my soul, and it was undoubtedly connected to Sophia. The haunted look in her eyes spoke volumes. I was unsure of how to make things right, but I couldn't ignore the overwhelming urge to care for and protect her, a feeling that had gripped me since I first held her at the warehouse. She had endured so much, and I couldn't bear the thought of leaving her to heal on her own. Nevertheless, reconciling this newfound sense of responsibility toward Sophia with what Harper had just asked of me posed an internal dilemma. I was acutely aware that Harper needed an answer, and the determination in my cousin's eyes suggested she might take matters into her own hands if I didn't assist. The weight of it all overwhelmed me. Ever since I took on the role of alpha in Grizlo at my father's behest, with the sole purpose of aiding and p

~Liam~ Morning came, and it wasn't hard figuring out where to take Josephine. Harper had requested that they would need most of the day to set up the hall for the party tomorrow. I knew precisely where I would take her. After breakfast, I asked Josephine to accompany me. "Where do you think will be safe for us to go?" Josephine asked me while we climbed the stairs to head back to my room. "We have been cooped up indoors for a while now. I just think going to the Fellowship Park will be nice," I said, and she stopped moving and turned to look at me. "You know it will be hard to say no to that, Liam," She said with a big grin, and I was glad she liked the idea. "Wilson, please ready six kappas. Ensure you follow Josephine and me closely from behind. We are going to the fellowship park, private section," I linked Wilson. "Yes, your Highness," he replied. I was glad that it was taken care of. The last thing I would want was someone grabbing us a day before her birthday. I wouldn

~Josephine~ Elaine and I spent some time together, but neither Oliver nor Liam had called us. It was three in the afternoon, and a sense of worry began to gnaw at me. I decided to visit Justin in his office, just in case something unfortunate had happened. Leaving my sister behind, I made my way downstairs to Justin's office. Upon entering, I was taken aback to find Sophia seated on his couch. Our eyes locked, and we gazed at each other in silence for a moment. My mind raced with thoughts of what she might be thinking. Did she view me as an adversary, the woman who had taken away her friend, the man who might have been hers if circumstances had been different? I couldn't fathom her thoughts, and I felt a sense of unease. Sophia had endured so much that it would be inappropriate to be anything but compassionate towards her. "Hello, Sophia," I managed to greet her, feeling a mixture of nerves and caution. To my surprise, she stepped away from the couch and approached me, then embr
