All Chapters of Something In Between Love : Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

CHAPTER 72 Emily "For the last time, you're not going to work hobbling like that. I know it'll be hard for you to hear this, but the company can survive a day without you," I declared. Sebastian hobbled around the closet trying but failing to wear a shirt, wincing every five seconds. "I want to believe you, but I can't sit still when I have the image of my building up in flames. Besides, I have to visit Sam and Mr. Kudi.” It so happened that the absence of Sam that day was because he received a hard hit on the head. Though he was discharged, Sebastian insisted he take sick days- or rather, sick weeks off. While Mr. Kudi is on bed rest in the hospital. The thought of the old bugger in the hospital because of Michael filled me with rage. "I spoke with them last night while you slept like a log and they're both doing great. Also, the board members are willing to reschedule, they'll be communicating through conference calls for the time being. Lastly, Murray Publishing

CHAPTER 74 Emily "Congratulations!” I hugged Richie, ignoring Beth's and Sebastian's displeasure. Beth scoffed in disbelief and folded her arm on her chest. “Thank you Em," Richie said. “You went through so much to get here,”I rubbed his back in comfort. We were having fun teasing Beth. “It wasn't easy,” he dramatically placed his palm over his heart. “Stop encouraging her, or the wedding is off,” Beth warned. “This is your life from now on,” I teased. Sebastian simply observed the scene with a scowl.He clears his throat and stands up."I think congratulations are in order,” he stuck out his arm for a handshake. Richie stared at it debating whether to accept it. Their eyes locked in a silent battle until they finally shook hands. In a firm grip. “Thank you,” Richie replied with a tight smile. “Firm grip you have there.” “My work demands it, although you wouldn't understand, you're a pretty boy with a silver spoon…"Beth slapped his chest before he could finish his sen

CHAPTER 76Sebastian “You know you're in big trouble right?” Vanessa said with a smirk. “Shut up,” I snapped, "I'm not here to have a chit-chat with you.” I gulped a glass of scotch down my throat. It burned, but not like my heart. What I did was inconsiderate, but I was caught off guard; I felt guilty for keeping a secret from her, and at the same time, I felt betrayed. “If you say so.” She said in a sing-song tone. She crossed her long legs, her short gown rode up her thigh. I almost laughed out loud at her obvious tactics. “Stop it, Vanessa, this is getting old, it's also kind of sad.”I stared down at my drink with a sullen expression as if it held all the answers to the questions swirling inside my head. “It worked before,?” she replied. I slapped her hand away when she touched my thigh. She scoffed and sipped her drink. “Yes because I was foolish and naive then.” “Foolish, yes, but naive? No. Seb, you were in every way the perfect man for me but I was blinded by

CHAPTER 78EmilyI woke up the next morning to the shrill sound of my phone, I was tempted to find the device and throw it at the wall. I blindly felt around the bed for the phone; when I found it, I raised it to my eye level, and the name on the screen made me groan out loud. My Mother. Without a thought, I rejected the call; I didn't want to spoil my mood, so I grabbed my pajamas from the floor and slipped into it.I descended the stairs; everyone was already awake and seated at the dinner table except for the one I longed for–Sebastian. Where was he? It was a Saturday. But then again, the Sebastian Crest, I know, could be on a Sunday. “He's left for New York with Vikki, he's staying there for a week,” Sophia informed. As though she read my thoughts. “Your eyes were searching for him, how could we not notice?” Celine said with a knowing smile. I blushed. I thought I hid my distress well. Then again, with Sebastian Crest, it was always one step forward two steps back.♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

CHAPTER 80Sophia “Let's date,” I blurted out. Theo rolled his eyes, “I'd be a psychopath to date my sister,” he replied in a bored tone. Knowing full well his insistence on my place as his sister would tick me off.“As far as I'm concerned, we're not related,” I said through clenched teeth. “I've lived here my whole life, I'm practically your brother.” “Stop being childish, I'm being serious.” “That's my line,” he deadpanned. “I swear you're as stubborn as a mule.” I groaned. Somehow I coaxed him to bring some documents to my room for me to sign. They were useless without my signature that's why he complied. Finally, our clothing line designs were to be launched soon. It was something important for both of us. We've been working together since my Father insisted in his will that Theo train me. Theo somehow feels obligated to my Father and Sebastian is why succumbing to me was hard for him. But I don't want to lose a good man because of my Father and brother. Not when I have
