The Brother Who Wasn't Mine To Love 의 모든 챕터: 챕터 31 - 챕터 40

It's the weekend and the Caddels has been waiting in the studio for thirty five minutes. They agreed to meet with Orion at the studio at a chosen time. However, it's been fifteen minutes past the agreed time and he didn't surface. It was after getting to the studio that Iver realized Orion had texted him thirty minutes ago, that means they were still at home then. He had told them he was going to be a bit late and they should hold on till he calls. They decided to just wait at the studio since they were already there anyway. However, he wasn't just a bit late because it's been thirty five minutes and he hasn't called like he said he would. His number was going through but no one was picking up. "Let's just go," April said. "Maybe he is caught up with an emergency at work or something," Mr Caddel said. "It's the weekend, Dad," April reminded him in frustration. "Maybe let's wait a bit more," Mrs Caddel said. "That's what you said ten minutes ago, Mom," April sighed. She hated

April gave the painting it's final finishing touch and beamed at it, she herself loved what she created and she knew others would be more than amazed too. Her eyes shifted to her painting materials, she couldn't believe she finally used them. It was the ones Orion had sent her on her birthday sometimes ago during the years he was gone. She had stacked it away from open space with no plan to used the them until today. Oddly, she loves them more than the ones she uses at the company.While admiring the painting, April's mind went back to the discussion she had with Knox at the company five days ago. She totally understood the decision Orion made , a total sacrifice.She was sure if her parents really knew that was the reason why he didn't want to go to university back then, they would have done told him not to worry about it and do everything in their power to sponsor him.April's mind went to the reason why she gave up on going to university. Even though just like Orion, thinking ab

"Chill," Iver said to April and then whispered something into Orion's ear.The frown disappeared from Orion's face and he gave a nod to Iver before leaving the seat and walked towards the other end of the table. Iver sat down and April sat next to him.She watched Orion took his seat on the next chair to Mr King's left side and Collin sat next to him. "What just happened?" April asked Iver."His father was sending deadly glares his way. I would be upset too if my eldest son chose to sit next to another man instead of right next to me," Iver explained."Dad isn't another man to him though," April corrected."I know, April. But you get my point, right?" Iver asked."Yes. I don't like his father very much," April said."Now don't go hating on people. Remember, you are my pressure valve for today, don't get carried away," Iver said."Sure," April let a short quiet laugh.Starting the sitting arrangements from Mr Caddel's right, Iver was seated opposite Mrs Caddel, April was seated opposi

April burst into a belly-aching laughter and Carlene stopped laughing wondering why April was laughing along with her. April stopped almost immediately after Carlene stopped laughing and she dabbed the edges of her eyes with the pad of her index fingers."Matt, I found someone funnier than you are," April said and Matt smiled knowing what she was doing."Carlene, right? Your pedigree sure talks a lot for 'something' that clearly wasn't raised right," April said."Something?" Carlene asked with a frown."Yes, you are the something, dear. No offense, Mr and Mrs King. You are the ones who raised her after all," April faked an empathetic expression."April!" Mr Caddel called firmly but April wasn't going to stop this time."No significant pedigree and yet, somehow, in a humble abode, my parents raised better human beings than your 'palace' ever did. No significant pedigree but at least we never had to buy love or manners, which you clearly lack!" April sneered."Burn...." Brad murmured a

"Oh my God, sorry," April said, immediately pulling the ends of her nightgown together to overlap them before tying the rope around her waist."I'm done," she said after making sure she is decent.Orion turned his face back to her."What are you doing here?" April asked."Why are you out here, dressed like that so late at night?" Orion asked."I'm in my house and like you said, it's late at night so of course I would be in my sleep wear," April defended."The moment you knew you were going to step out the door, you should have dressed appropriately. What if instead of me, it's some creep out here?" Orion admonished her act.April stretched forward and Orion immediately leaned back in his seat. She picked Orion's phone from the center console and pressed the side button, the screen lighted up and she checked the time."It's not really that late at night, it's ten minutes after eleven. We aren't even in the middle of the night yet," April said.Orion cleared his throat and she realized
