All Chapters of Love's Redemption: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Tanya's little schemes were totally exposed by me, and she looked super uncomfortable.Even so, she tried to keep her high moral stance. "So, you just assume there's something between Jace and me?"I thought, 'Do I need to assume? Doesn't she know what she's done?'But I kept my cool and didn't say anything harsh.Tanya's eyes turned red as she said, "I didn't expect people to have such dirty and vile thoughts nowadays."I couldn't help but scoff inwardly, 'Look at her, acting all noble.'She continued, "Keira, Jace is a good guy. If you can't even trust him, you don't deserve him."It was all a buildup to suggest that I was the one unworthy of Jace.So, she had more to say.I kept silent, waiting for her to continue her act.Sure enough, she wiped her almost-tearful eyes and said, "Keira, are you really not going to cherish Jace anymore?She was setting a trap for me. Did she think I was naive?I smirked. "If I say I don't want him, are you going to say you do?"Tanya's f

Lindey and Matthew tensed up when I spoke, not surprised but definitely uneasy."Rea, we know about it. It's not your fault. It's that rascal Jace's fault. I scolded him. I told him to come back and apologize to you..." Lindey started, cursing Jace before I could even get a word in.She was trying to keep me from saying what she didn't want to hear.Matthew, more rational, interrupted her, "Let Rea speak."Lindey's grip on my hand tightened, her eyes begging me not to say what she feared.I lowered my gaze, trying to stay composed. "Jace and I have broken up."The room fell into a heavy silence, with Lindey's grip tightening even more."Why?" Matthew's voice was deep and authoritative.I knew I had to give them a reason they couldn't argue with, or this would never end. Just saying Jace and I were incompatible wouldn't cut it.So, I decided to be honest. "Because of Tanya. He cares more about her than he does about me, his fiancée."Lindey pulled my hand closer. "What has he

'Wayne is back!'I hadn't seen that coming, just like I didn't think he'd remember my dad's number.Matthew and Lindey were equally surprised, staring at Wayne in disbelief.Wayne had been gone for four years without a single visit. His sudden return was a total surprise and a real thrill for them."Mom, Dad, what's up? Aren't you guys happy to see me?" Wayne said, walking over with a grin.Wayne had always been the warm, big brother type. In the ten years I spent with the Johnston family before he left, he brought the most warmth to the house.Unlike Jace, who was all about showing off how well he treated me, Wayne's kindness was the real deal—quiet and genuine, more about what he did than what he said."Wayne," I called out to him.This brought Matthew and Lindey back to their senses. Lindey released me, stood up, and walked to Wayne, lightly hitting him twice. "You still remember you have parents? You still know how to come home?"Matthew chimed in, "Why didn't you give us

"Cutie Pie, you still have me," Wayne said, gently patting the back of my head before letting go.I hadn't cried at all until now. Suddenly, my eyes filled up, and the tears just started pouring. I didn't want to cry in front of him, but I couldn't stop. 'I can't let these tears fall, they'll give me away,' I told myself.Swallowing them back only made them flow faster. I turned my head, trying to hide my face. Wayne's hand landed on my head again, gently ruffling my hair. "It's okay to cry in front of me, you remember?"He had said that before. Now, he said it again.But in this moment, his words tore at the last shreds of my dignity. I turned my back to him, quickly wiping away the tears.Sensing my discomfort, he picked up my suitcase. "I'll put this in your car."As he left, I covered my face and let the tears flow freely. When I finally went downstairs, Matthew and Lindey were still busy in the kitchen, their joy at Wayne's return overshadowing their anxiety about losing me

Quentin: [Keira, is it true that you and Jace broke off your engagement?]Eric: [Keira, Jace has gone mad with anger. Don't be upset. We'll sort him out for you.]Daniel: [Keira, when you have time, let me treat you and Jace to dinner.]Toby: [Count me in. I can definitely help patch things up between you and Jace.]Andrew: [Guys, stop making a fuss. Couples have their fights and make up. You're just stirring things up.]I stared at the screen, puzzled. 'What have they heard that made them tag me in the group?'The chat had eight members, and all guys were Jace's sworn brothers. Besides who had posted, there were Jace, me, and Steve. Steve was the only one who hadn't said anything, but he knew me best.In the brotherhood, Jace was the third eldest, and Steve was the sixth. I met Steve before Jace and I were officially a couple. It was before Steve and Jace had sworn brotherhood.I sent Steve a private message: [Steve, what rumors have they heard?]Steve replied almost instantl
