All Chapters of Roommates With My Best Friend's Boyfriend : Chapter 251 - Chapter 255

TESSAI’d been counting the hours by the way the light moved across Rebecca’s floor.Not because I cared about her house, but because counting made the dependence feel less absolute. Morning against the far wall. Noon over the glass coffee table. Late afternoon stretching toward the doorway I wasn’t supposed to use without help.Help. Everyday for the past fucking monthThe word alone made my jaw ache.Still, I'd endured the bitter taste of it. Ensured it for the past fucking month.Brian had left me here like a package with instructions. Keep her off the headlines. Keep Liam from finding a clean route back to her. Let her recover. As if recovery was something you could store in a spare room and check on between more important crimes. Surpsingly, Rebecca agreed, which somehow made it worse. She hadn’t agreed out of softness. That alone was clear. After all, I was a problem that belonged to the same bloodline that had already taken enough from her.I hated that I needed her.I ha

TIFFANYWhat was the best thing to wear to make a good first impression on your first day of work?I asked myself that at least twelve times before the mirror finally stopped arguing with me.Not too soft.

A sleek black car waited at the curb, polished enough to reflect the morning sky. For a second, something bright and stu

Like seeing Cinderella or Rapunzel for the first time. That epitome of perfection you couldn't help but admire because it was absent in you.Tsk.The more I thought about it, the more corny it sounded. Painting a picture of someone I'd barely even met. Barely even knew...So maybe... just maybe... I did a little more research on her.Straight-A Student.Literature Major.Simple Family.As if she couldn't get any more perfect.But, and there was always a but, was there a chance that this little Rapunzel wasn't as stainless as I believed?“What are you doing here?” she said between clenched teeth.A smirk tugged at the corner of my lips.“I work here. Isn't that obvious?”Her hands clenched into fists. Her breathing turned so ragged I could almost hear it.Interesting.“Don't tell me you're st
