Something In Between Love のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 91 - チャプター 100

CHAPTER 91Sebastian I stormed into Michael's room, my eyes scanning the space for any sign of Vanessa. She was on a call. She turned around and her eyes widened in fear as I advanced towards her."Where did he take her?" I demanded, my voice low and menacing. Vanessa stumbled backward, her eyes darting around the room like a trapped animal."I don't know what you're talking about," she stammered. I hit the wall above her head, and she gasped, her body trembling between my arms."Don't test my patience, Vanessa," I warned. "I swear I don't know! He doesn't tell me his basic plans – he doesn't tell me anything." She croaked out fearfully. I laughed cynically and backed away from her. "You seem to have forgotten who I am and what I'm capable of, Vanessa. You know how ruthless I can be when I want to. Let's see if I've been keeping up with your life shall we?” I pulled out my phone, clicked some sites, and began to read from it. "A waitress in her early thirties swindles money from

CHAPTER 93Sebastian Dumbstruck, I said. “What do you mean she's lost the pregnancy, I haven't…" I bit my lip to stop the sob clogging my throat. “She was pregnant?” Mother whispered in shock. “I need to see her,” I declared. “You cannot see her now, Mr Crest, she's still in recovery," "Don't you understand?! She needs me to be with her…please," I whisper. Everyone stared at me, sadness marred in their expressions. “We understand your plight Mr. Crest, but you have to understand this is a delicate situation, please…" Doctor Philip added with empathy in his eyes. I staggered back, leaned on the wall, and slid down to the floor. My Mom rushed to my side and hugged me by the shoulders. “You have to be strong for Emily, sweetheart; I'm so sorry I didn't pay attention," She rubbed my arms in comfort. Early the next morning, I and Theo were waiting in the lobby. I hadn't slept a wink, just tons of coffee in my system. Sam had driven Mother, and the girls home for a change of clo

CHAPTER 95Sophia "They'll divorce soon if they don't stop skirting around each other and talk it out.” I blurt out. "Watch your mouth, Sophia!" Mother chastises. "What? It's true,” I shrug, “Or have you not noticed how they pass each other in the hallway as if they were strangers? They walk around like zombies with hunched shoulders, deep sighs, and eye bags under their eyes. Emily now frequents her family house and comes home looking like a ghost, while Sebastian is either holed up in his study or comes home late. He uses the Micheal problem as an excuse to bury himself at work. And how do I know this? He doesn't take tea at all, nothing sweet, that's how I know a crisis is brewing. This is even worse than when he was with Vanessa," I conclude. I pick a cherry and pop it into my mouth. "Do you think something happened that we are not aware of?" Mom asks thoughtfully. "Probably. Everything became awkward after Em was discharged. She said something weird at the hospital," I sh

CHAPTER 97EmilyHer smile was as I remembered, Pretty, mysterious, and dimpled. Her eyes were dark and large, her black shoulder-length hair was styled in a bun at the nape of her neck. She was dressed in a blue sundress that brought out her eyes, a gold wristwatch paired with an equally gold necklace shining on her delicate neck, and gold pumps on her feet.Her scent of cookies and lemon still lingers around her. It has been seared into my brain and will never go away. It tormented me; it transported me back to my childhood days when everything was smooth sailing and when I didn't have to worry about the harsh realities of life. I snapped out of my reverie back to the harsh reality; that is my Mother, standing on my doorstep with a smile as if she had not ghosted me when I needed her the most. “Who is Em?" Aunt Fiona called as she approached me. “Long time no see?” Mother said with a grimace. "What are you doing here?" I said. "I see you're still the same. Relentless." She b

CHAPTER 99Emily "Is it truly over with you and the Stallion?" Beth asked in a somber tone. "You, of all people, know Sebastian, and I don't belong in the same world. Besides, I've signed the divorce papers. This is for the best. No one gets hurt anymore.”"Looks like you're the one hurting. You didn't expect the divorce papers did you?" I kept mute because Beth was right. I was caught off guard. The truth is, I was blindsided, I thought we were simply spending time apart before sorting things out. However, when I saw the divorce papers it dawned on me that it was truly the end for me and Sebastian. I signed the papers three days ago, but there's no call from him. I have to admit that his silence was starting to get under my skin. When Mother told me Sebastian called and encouraged her to come see us after everything, for a minute I thought leaving Sebastian might be one of the biggest mistakes I had ever made, but then came the divorce papers, and my world shattered.“It’s for
