Lahat ng Kabanata ng I Kissed My BestFriend’s Brother. Now What?: Kabanata 81 - Kabanata 90

KAIDA’S POVMaverick stood before me. All tall and handsome with sharp cheekbones, one resembling that of a super model from a popular fashion house. He looked totally different from a year ago, when we were still in college.The tuxedo suit he was putting on was perfect, like it was tailored specifically for his body and no one else.Above all the description I gave about this 6 '7 height of a man standing in front of me, pinning Cole with a deadly glare that could probably kill him if he didn’t scamper away quickly, the one last thing I shouldn’t be doing was gawking at how handsome he had become over the year.I mean, my life literally stopped progressing after the incident at our college farewell party. Because of him, I was still stuck in our college days. While on his part, let me guess, he already got married to a mafia princess and moved the fuck on, while I was still stuck trying to heal the pain he caused. The deep empty hole he left in my heart, one that was taking forever

KAIDA’S POVI was still trying to wrap my head around all that had happened, when my phone ding, indicating a message just popped in.The sound was made by both my phone and that of Doctor Tems. I guess it was from the board.They always sent messages to our phone, if they needed us at the board room for an emergency meeting, one they had no time to inform the staff about.“I think there’s a board meeting. I just got a message.” Doctor Tems was already out of her seat when I snapped out of my thoughts and turned to find her staring at me, expectantly.My brows shot up, almost touching my hairline at the stare she threw my way. “What? Do I have something on my face?”“Didn’t you listen to what I just said?” She asked, resting her elbows on the desk in slow motion, trying to fit into the role of a genius detective interrogating a serial killer. “We have a board meeting, Doctor Kaida. Why are you still seated?”My thoughts came rushing into my head like the wave of the sea and I was out

KAIDA’S POVEverything was too much for me to bear. The sudden return of Maverick, him becoming the CEO of our sport entertainment and same him trying to protect me from the Italian Mafia or whatsoever. I needed a break or I might break down and never rise up to my feet again.I needed a break away from everyone and everything I knew in New York, so I went for permission from the director, as the so-called CEO, Maverick Jensen was out of office.I knew he wouldn’t be there when I went to ask for a day leave. If he had been there, I was sure he’d grant me the leave, but made sure to have a few of his bodyguards or himself around me as I enjoyed my leave. That wasn’t what I wanted. Not in any way.When he suddenly showed up, for a second, my heart fluttered. Scratch that—for two freaking days, my heart was still fluttering.A deep part of me thought he was here to apologize and make things right, just like I have wanted. I thought he’d grovel and be a yearned man to get my attention, b

MAVERICK’S POVIt has hours upon hours, yet, not a single trace of her. We had no clues on where to start the search from. What if the Italian mafia had her?What if they hid her in a place where she couldn’t be found?What if…Fuck it!I fucking had to find her or the world will be doomed from my wrath.“Any signal?” I asked, standing in the part way, dividing both my cyber teams, who were working really hard to find Kaida.“No, Boss. I don’t think she’s in New York.” The moment those words left his lips, a frown appeared on my face and my eye brows shot up, almost reaching my hairline.“What do you mean?”“The reason we couldn’t find her anywhere is because she's currently out of our tracker and out of the country.” My head of the Cyber team said.Why would she be out of New York City?I doubted she had any relatives in cities other than New York, so why?“Extend our tracker and find her. Even if she’s on another continent.” I barked.“But Boss…”“Would you do it or die a painless

KAIDA’S POVWhy did it have to be him?Why did it have to be Maverick who pushed me into the lake six years ago?It should have been someone else and not him. But it seems the universe doesn’t want us to be together. It is against our relationship, hence, the constant hardship we faced.I had almost given in when he was in New York to protect me. I almost fell for those sharp jaws covered in bear that made him more handsome, those ocean blue eyes that made me feel at peace each time my heart and mind was in chaos. Sigh! I was a step away from giving in, but flying to Alaska had opened my eyes to reality.I initially flew over there for a visit to my Aunt, but when we strolled to the lake behind her building, somehow, my memories, the one containing the person who pushed me into the lake from behind six years ago, came rushing into my head like a flood.I had a nose bleed because of those memories and when the person’s face came to view, I almost collapsed.I almost doubted my memory,
