Semua Bab The Brother Who Wasn't Mine To Love : Bab 51 - Bab 60

It's Thursday and it's been two weeks since April and Nate started talking, he's been hanging out with her friends. April found him fun to talk to and she enjoys his presence, not in a romantic way though.He had asked her out for coffee dates twice now. And today, he invited her and her other two friends to his house to babysit his little brother together, promising her it would be fun with his three other siblings, April agreed after the others did.It was all part of university experience, she doesn't want to miss out on anything. Besides, she always wanted to know how it feels like to deal with a younger sibling.She however, have started noticing little hints that made her realize that Rita might be right about Nate liking her. Nonetheless, she refuses to jump into conclusion until she heard it directly from him.She would have to turn him down if it ever comes to that. Not that he wasn't attractive or her type, it's just that her heart already chose another. Her heart already be

It was Monday and April woke with a light heart, after getting rid of the heavy load weighing on her heart, also known as how to reject Nate. She couldn't bare to tell him face to face and had sent him a text.He called her after that and they had a long talk. Thankfully, he is mature enough and know how to handle rejection. Now, they are just going to pretend like nothing happened and continue being friends.She skipped down the stairs to the dining room, only Orion had arrived there. "Good morning," she chirped and kissed his cheek. Smiling, she went to take her seat."Good morning, seems like you had a sweet dream," he said with a smile of his own. "None of that. Today's Rita's birthday, we planned a little surprise party for her at Nate's place.Orion's smile gradually disappeared."Nate? So you will be having a sleepover at the guy's place again?" he frowned."No, class ends by twelve. We lure her there, surprise her, dine and wine, spend a few hours and go to our different ho

"What do you want this time?""I'll put it on myself," she said."Fine. Go ahead," Orion said.Raising herself to stand on her tiptoes, she passed the tie around his neck. He bent a bit to make it easier for her. When she was done, he walked to his full length mirror to observe her work and was satisfied."You did good," he praised."I know, right?" April said smugly and he pushed the uninjured side of her head lightly with his index finger, making her giggle."I have a request. Can you not get angry with Carlene over what happened?" Orion wasn't expecting that. As far he knows, she and Carlene doesn't see eye to eye so it was weird hearing that sentence from April."If you are thinking that me making her face the consequence of her action will be your fault, then stop thinking that way because you will be wrong. I already gave a warning as to what would happen if she misbehaved," Orion said sternly."It wasn't deliberate though. I believe it was just meant to be a harmless prank on

"What?" Orion whispered out."Just speaking the truth here, why do you look so surprised?" Iver challenged.Orion swiftly took hold of Iver's collar with his left hand, jerking him forward while his right fist raised in the air with force.It never connected with Iver's face and Iver never even flinched, like he already knew Orion would never do it. Orion slowly lowered his fist, his palm unfolding. He released his grip on Iver's collar, smoothing it down before taking a step away from him."Let's stop here," Orion said, looking betrayed.Iver was about to open his mouth for another heartbreaking sentence when April spoke."Iver, please stop," April pleaded with a shaky voice and Iver sighed, shutting his mouth.Orion turned away from Iver and faced Carlene."Take your brother to his room," he said and Carlene did as told, helping Collin to his room.Then, he turned to April. "Are you okay?" "Yes, I'm fine," April replied.He gave a nod and turned towards the stairs, he started walki

"Make sure you exclude everything that happened during the weekend from you report to my father," April heard Orion's voice from her sleep."As you wish," Another voice she recognized to be Knox, replied.She stretched and turned on her side, relishing in the scent, warmness and softness of the bed she was on. The satisfaction felt by her soul made her let out an elongated hum of relief."By the way, what is she doing here?" Knox asked."I guess I will have to ask that when she's awake," Orion replied with a chuckle."Why do I feel like you are happy with her doing this?" Knox asked."You are the one who felt like that, why are you asking me why?" Orion replied coyly."You know what I mean," Knox said and that was when April started becoming conscious of her surroundings as her eyes parted open.From the ceiling, her eyes moved downward over the walls till it landed on Orion and Knox. Orion was standing at the end of the couch, fixing his cuff links while Knox was opposite him, his ha
