Semua Bab Falling For My Stepbrother 1 : Bab 41 - Bab 50

Emma's POV I literally thought my whole life had turned upside down, but it was the beginning of the mending of many of my relationships. First, with Lily. I sat far away from her in class, among the ‘zeros’, as Lily called them. People who had little to no appeal. I had begun to feel that way either way. Someone passed me a note. I saw Lily's poorly drawn heart shape on it and laughed. “I'm sorry, Emma.” The note read. “I didn't mean for that to happen. You're a really pretty girl, you can't blame me so much.” She drew a very funny face next to it. I was still baffled, but I liked the fact that she was making a joke out of it. It made the air feel less tense. “It really caught me unawares.” I replied to her and sent it back. People were already looking at us and wondering how we were talking and laughing and exchanging notes barely an hour after the showdown in the lobby. “I know. I'm so sorry. It's messing with me again.” She wrote with a tear faced badly drawn man ne

Emma's POV Just two days after our fallout, Chase had an accident. I was the only one home, and it made sense to be there for him. All the nights I spent near his bedside praying that nothing happens to him. My grades started to slack, I slept in class, my social battery was down, I was even beginning to look malnourished. I tried to fight the fact, which is that I cared about Chase, but it was impossible. I hated seeing him like that. I'd very much rather he be up and well, than sick, bedridden and housebound. I passed out on him so many times, the doctor advised a maid to check up on me whenever I went in to see him. Life was beginning to look colorful again, when two weeks after crashing himself and his car, he blinked. Blood tests showed he was under the influence of drugs, but Mark paid heavily to kill the investigations at that stage. It was all anyone needed to know, really. Three weeks after, doctors certified him okay enough to go about daily activities “Rise and

Jessica's POV Emma's effect was really a thing. Gray once joked about how she had an aura that kinda punished people who didn't like her. I didn't think it was real till that night, even though I hate to admit it. I had lost both Chase and Rudd to her, indirectly. I didn't like post nut clarity, and I'm sure there was more wrong with Chase than just that. The next day at school was their showdown, which I really couldn't give a fuck about because I was nursing wounds of my own. The day seemed to drag. My wounds hurt worse than they did the night before. Worse still, I got an infection from the previous night. The thought of Chase pouring alcohol into my vagina now began to irritate me, though it was a little too late. Between all that, I knew I had to do something. I wasn't one to go down without a fight. I hated Rudd, but he still hadn't fulfilled his end of the bargain, which was failing Emma. Results were to be out in about a month's time, so I expected her to face her hel

Jessica's POV “You're such a bitch!” Lily screamed from her car. I laughed, seeing the effect I had on her. “Only two things can help you now.” I said, grinning from ear to ear. “It's either you tell me why you have Chase wiring a grand to you, or confirm my request.” I said, winking. “You seriously cannot be saying this.” Lily sighed. I enjoyed being in control, making her weak. It made me all shades of happy. “You know what's funny?” Lily asked, with a sad smile. “The fact that you always hated me for the longest time, because Chase liked me. And now that it's Emma's turn, you want me to be on your side. Emma's my friend.” She didn't even sound convinced herself. I laughed very deeply and sped off again. She caught up with me, again. “Hand over my phone and tell me what you want.” Lily conceded. I knew she wasn't gonna play any funny games, so I gave her back. “I'll call you.” I said, sealing our deal before speeding off. Mission accomplished. I raced back home f

Chase's POV I wasn't expecting Emma to react so low when I showed up to her room that morning. It's the first time I had been able to get out of bed on my own in over three weeks. She had been my primary caregiver, something I'm still yet to thank her fully for. She and Gray were definitely not on the best of terms, but even he acknowledged how hard she worked for me. I was expecting to see the light in her eyes, like I saw when I first opened my eyes a few days after the crash. Broken and hurt, I went to Rudd. As worthless as he was, I knew he still held the power to Emma making it into a good college, so I swallowed my anger, annoyance, and a little bit of my pride and entered his office without knocking. “Glad to see you made it, Mr Chase.” He said with no humor on his face, I was too smart to buy his bullshit, so I went straight to the point.. “How much did she pay you to do that to an innocent girl?” I asked him. I was struggling to keep my emotions under control.
