Chapter 81Celine Coleman POVIt was a long day for me being my first day at work, but I was glad I could pull through. It was finally time for me to go home.Bryant walked into my office right about the time I was packing things up."Are you ready to go, my lady?" He asked, and I nodded."Yes, I am. I want to stop by the mall to get something. You might have to go home before me," I replied to him as I finally packed up everything and hung my bag on my shoulder."You must be very tired after a long day here. I would tell the maid to get it for you later. Come on, let's go home," He insisted, and I didn't want to argue with him, so I nodded."You might have to drive me home, babe. The driver is not yet here," He uttered, and I nodded."Shall we?" I asked as I went to stand behind him, and he nodded. I held the handles of the wheelchair and pushed it gently out of the office. I wanted to tell him to go ahead first while I joined him later, but I didn't want to make him feel bad.We took

Chapter 82"Miles... I want him fired from the company immediately," Bryant said to Nolan who had just walked inside his office. It was another beautiful day, but Bryant wasn't finding anything beautiful knowing that a man was hitting on his woman in the company. Of course, he trusted Celine so much and knew she would never look at another man because she was loyal, but this was just so fucking annoying that he felt like killing that bastard right away."Why do you want him fired?" Nolan asked confusingly as he sat on the chair across from Bryant."That bastard keeps flirting with Celine at every given opportunity. He even dared to call her on the phone yesterday. Can you imagine that?" Bryant fumed and clenched his fingers."Don't you trust Celine? Do you think she would fall for that?" Nolan asked as he raised one of his eyebrows, earning a glance from Bryant."Of course, I trust her. It's just that I'm not comfortable with him being around her," Bryant said honestly."I know how it

Chapter 83"You again?" Celine scoffed when he looked at the person and realized that it was Miles. Was he following her? She asked herself, but quickly discarded the thought and stepped away from him."I'm sorry, Ms. I didn't mean to. Let me help you clean it," Miles quickly apologized as he reached for a handkerchief from his pocket and offered to clean her body with it."Don't touch me," As much as Celine tried not to sound rude, her tone came out harsh."I really didn't mean it. I'm sorry," He apologized to her again, and she rolled her eyes."It's fine," She replied to him casually."You are standing in my way," She further said, and he briefly sighed."I can get you a change of clothes if you want, Ms. I really didn't mean it," Again, he apologized."You've said that like a million times already, and I told you it's fine. Can you leave my way?" She tried to be polite this time even as she was already irritated deep inside her."Hmm," He finally stepped away from her, and she roll

Chapter 84Celine Coleman POVMy day in the office was boring and I didn't need anyone to tell me that it was because Bryant was not in the office.I was finally off work, excited that I would get home early enough and see Bryant.As I strode down the walkway that led to the elevator, my phone started to ring and I stopped to check who the caller was. I knotted my eyebrows confusingly when I saw the unfamiliar number displayed on my phone screen."Who is this?" I mumbled since I was not used to answering calls from strangers. I ignored the call and proceeded to the elevator. I pressed the elevator button, throwing it open slowly, and I stepped inside.My phone beeped as I waited for the elevator to close, and I checked it tiredly.'It's me, Jake. I need your help' My eyes narrowed when I saw the text, and I immediately dialed the number. Luckily, he picked up on the first ring."Jake, dear... Are you ok? Did something happen? Where are you?" I asked him worriedly, afraid that something

They didn't allow me to take him away even when he was bleeding, until Mr. Miles settled the bill.Mr. Miles took Jake out of the casino and his car. He drove us to the hospital afterward.We arrived at the hospital at past 9pm, and Jake was admitted immediately."You need to wait here, Ms. We'll take it from here," One of the nurses said to me when I tried to go into the ward with them, so I waited outside with Mr. Miles."You need to calm down, Ms," Mr. Miles said to me, and I nodded."You should sit down and get some rest. Do you need something? How about a bottle of water?" He asked me, but I just buried my face between my palms."I'll be back," He uttered, followed by his receding footsteps. He was gone for five

Chapter 86Celine Coleman POV"You should go home, Mr. Miles. I'll stay with him," I said to Mr. Miles."Don't worry. It's fine," He assured me, and I slowly nodded. I couldn't be happier when the doctor revealed to me earlier that Jake was going to be fine. According to the doctor, he just needed a few hours of rest, and he would come around.As I sat along the walkway, I buried my face between my palms as many thoughts paraded my mind. Bryant must be really worried about me, and I could not even reach him. Just then, something crossed my mind, so I rose to my feet and turned to Miles."Mr. Miles... Is there anywhere I can use a public telephone here? I need to call my husband. He must be worried about me," I said to him, and he seemed to think about it for a while before he nodded."Yes. I think at the reception. I don't know how possible it's going to be, but maybe it'll work," He suggested, and I quickly took off to the reception without wasting another second."Excuse me, please,

Chapter 87Bryant's eyes burnt with rage as he stared at Miles. His heart wrenched painfully, and slowly, he gritted his teeth tightly until it was starting to hurt, but still, the pain was nothing compared to the one he was feeling in his heart. He had been worried about her all day yesterday and here she was with another man?"Babe... I was just about to call you," Celine uttered as she walked over to him. She tried to touch him, but quickly retracted her hand after he gave her a murderous glare."Get me out of here," Bryant said to Nolan, as he stared at Celine. He felt betrayed, fooled, and used. How could she do something like this to him when he trusted her so much with everything in him?"Why are you leaving, babe? Jake got into...""Don't say anything to me, Celine..." His tone was laced with pain, anger, and betrayal as he looked away from her. It felt like a dagger was thrust deep into his heart. His chest contracted so tightly that he could barely breathe, but no way he was

Chapter 88Celine Coleman POV"Call me if you need anything. I need to go to the office," Mr. Miles said to me before he finally left the hospital, leaving me with Jake. As I walked back to the ward where Jake was, my phone started ringing and I stopped to answer it. I checked the caller and saw that it was Nolan. I quickly swiped the answer button."Hey, Nolan,""Bryant is alone at his mansion. You should go meet him there," Nolan's voice sounded from the other end, but I didn't know if I was ready to face Bryant. Of course, I knew that I was wrong for not reaching out to him and it was entirely not my fault. I was disappointed that he just left and didn't even hear me out. He didn't even bother to know what was wrong with me and why I was in the hospital. "Hmm. I'll do that," Regardless, I replied to Nolan and the call finally disconnected. I breathed out and held my phone firmly in my hand. Even though I was disappointed and mad at him, I couldn't deny that I was worried about hi

Chapter 89Celine Coleman POVJake stared at me disgustingly like he could kill me at that moment. "You got mated to that crippled bastard...""I wouldn't have you insult my husband, Jake. You need to show him some respect," I snapped at him, and he huffed as he threw his head back."You are really defending him, Celine? You are under his spell, right?" He scoffed and bit his lip as he blinked his eyes a few times."Jake...""Fine... You have to choose between the two of us, Celine," He cut me off, and my jaw dropped to the ground as I stared at him wordlessly."Ja... Jake...""You want to be with him... So why not go to him? Let's cease being siblings," He further said, and my heart sank into my stomach. Tears brimmed in my eyes as I stared at him. I wanted to try to at least talk him out of it, but knowing that I would only be wasting my time because he would never listen to me, then I didn't see any reason to try to talk him out of it."Let's pretend we are not siblings... If we e

Chapter 90Celine Coleman POVI sat on one of the couches in the living room, and buried my face between my palms. It was hard to stop my tears no matter how hard I tried to. This was difficult to handle, losing my brother was making me go crazy, but then, I couldn't leave my husband because he wanted me to, right?Again, I glanced at Bryant whose eyes were still closed. I managed to get him to the living room even though it was almost impossible to move him.I sniffled, then reached for my phone and scrolled through it. I still have Mr. Miles's number, so I dialed it. He picked up on the first ring."I've been worried sick about you. Have you gotten home now?" His worried voice sounded from the other end, and I briefly sighed."Hmm. I'm home now," I replied to him, and I heard him sigh in relief."That's a relief. Have you showered yet? Have you gotten something to eat?" He asked, but the truth is, I haven't had time for that yet."Yes, I have. My husband already made something by th
