Falling For My Dad's Best Friend Mga Nobela at Kwento

An investigation is underway into me. Dad looks at me like I just gave him a slap. I add, "My career is over." Nothing. burdensome and oppressive. "Jesus Christ," says Dad to himself. “Izzy... “There’s more.” I tear the remainder off like a band-aid. He cheated on me. along with Rebecca. Dom twitches his jaw. The table is where his fists curl. "Rebecca?" Dad whispers. Rebecca, your best friend? "Once my best friend. Next spring, they will get married.

I was sprawled on my bed, scrolling through my phone, trying to ignore the fact that my brain was, as usual, replaying the latest Gabriel dream. Yeah, that Gabriel. My dad's best friend. The one who haunted my sleep with those ridiculously handsome smiles and touches that felt so real, I'd wake up all flustered and confused. He was, like, thirty-something, noble, always dressed sharp, and totally off-limits. My forbidden fantasy. My secret obsession since I was, like, fifteen. "Coming!" I yelled back, shoving the embarrassing thoughts away. Gotta act normal. Always normal. I trudged downstairs. Dad was already there, looking a bit nervous, which was weird. Mom was practically bouncing. "Sit

I should remind myself not to cry in the future because my eyes are puffy like a bee stung me. "Did you cry scarlet?" Dad asks me. "Yeah, in the morning" I mumble avoiding his scrutiny, dad knows me too much to know I am lying through my teeth. Call it the institution of a dad but he's the one who always let me confess my sins. There was one time when I fought with my supposed best friend in grade 5, dad was the one who asks me why I was talking little and that I was not acting like myself. Honestly, one of the reasons why I don't like friends is because of her. I thought we are best buddies well after Liam but she proves me wrong when she talks behind my back and starts reading rumours abo

my mom started, but he cut her off, his voice cracking. “My best friend is gone,” he said, his hands tightening into fists before burying his face in his palms. “And you’re talking to me about pills.” His voice dropped lower, thick with grief. I froze, not sure what to say. The man sitting before me, the strong, composed father I’d known all these years looked broken. So, this Uncle Larry… he wasn’t just anyone. He was that important to my dad? His best friend? How did I never know about him?

I gasped. I was… I did. Frantically, I grabbed my phone again and opened it with trembling hands. I went straight to the recording app. I let out a deep breath the moment I saw a new audio file saved. I hit play. "Oh… Tito Damien… Damien! Faster! Please! Daddy!" My jaw dropped. The phone slipped from my fingers. “Fuck! Mica!” I cursed at myself. I slept with him. With my ex-boyfriend’s father. It was real. I thought maybe it was just a dream.

Sometimes, you just had to trust that it would. Adrian leaned back with a smirk. “Though, honestly, I still can’t believe my ex-girlfriend is about to become my mother-in-law. Because of one silly mistake, I lost a good woman. But hey, Dad, I guess you’re the better man.” My laugh burst out before I could stop it, and even Adrian chuckled at his own joke, but Gabriel..... oh, Gabriel did not. His face hardened instantly, that domineering, possessive look flashing across his features.

Her eyes bulge and for a second I think her eyeballs are going to fall off. “Your dad’s best friend? The one that came back after many years?” “Yep! Same. I found out the day my parents threw him a surprise party. You can’t imagine the shock on my face. Well, we aren't dating. He says we can't be together because of my dad.” “Oops.” “But, I tried to persuade him. I may or may not have seduced him –” Lilly squirms jumping up and down and finally squeezing me in a very tight hug that nearly knocks all the oxygen from my lungs.

“Lucas, the boss isn't bothering me. Aren't you his brother? Aren't you supposed to know he is my Dad's best friend?“ I asked. Hearing this, a confused look crossed Lucas's face. It was obvious that he didn't know. “Your Dad's best friend?“ Lucas cussed softly. “I….I didn't know,” he said. “Well, now you know. He was only talking to me. And that was normal. I have known him for years now, that's how close we are towards each other,” I said. Hoping that would convince him enough. “I'm sorry, I literally thought he was trying to take advantage of you, I'm sorry,” he apologized. “It's fine. thank you for looking out for me, I honestly appreciate it, but trust me, there's nothing to be worried a

She said “you will meet the one you can’t live without. There will be a spark, and you will only be able to think about him. That is how I knew that Matteo was not the one for you, honey.” I knew what she meant. Because at the moment I don’t even feel the betrayal. I feel nothing. I end the call after wishing them a good night. My dad reminded me of the important meeting we will be having tomorrow with his best friend. I told him I wouldn’t miss it. My dad has been best friends with Miguel Lopez his whole life. They grew up together and both started their respective companies at the same time.

Abbey POV “I need you to listen to me very carefully, and I need you to let me speak without interrupting me”, Freaking hell, is he going to ask me to marry him? Of course not, but why is he being so serious? I nod my head in agreement. “If I go with you, to meet your parents, they will freak out, and trust me, it won’t be pretty, the same way that it wasn’t with my dad. You see, your dad was my dad’s best friend”, I think my mind just exploded when he said that my dad was his dad’s best friend. Is this some kind of a joke? It has to be. Hope grows in me that everything will be okay, that Harry Payne will start to be nicer to me.
