Tame Me My Brother -in-Law

86. WILL YOU MARRY ME? CELINE’s POV After I was certain that Cynthia was already fast asleep, I sneaked over to the opposite side of the room and quietly opened her laptop. I accessed the recordings that were stored in my cloud storage and then backed them up, before I copied the piece of information into the phone I was using. After I had finished using the laptop, I turned it off and walked back to the room, where I was surprised to hear Cynthia talking to herself while she was asleep. “Why do you love her?” She uttered a mumble. “Why should it not be me?” It appeared as though she was even considering the answer to that question while she slept. I heaved a sigh as I sat next to her and dabbed away the te were gathering in the outer corner of her eyes. I needed to have conversation with Jake and explain everything to him in detail. I needed to talk to him right away, so I typed out a message on my phone and sent it to him. The response he sent was, “Okay, I’m here in my room…” Before leaving Cynthia’s bedroom, the first thing I did was pull the sheets over her body and cover her, then I proceeded to Jake’s room on the second floor. I lifted my fist and just as I was about to knock on his door, it was suddenly opened. “Come in…” he said, and I followed him as he walked further into the room. When we reached his bed, he stopped walking and gestured for me to sit, but I refused to do so.

“I just want to clarify that Cynthia was not the one who pushed me out of the window. I jumped out on my own…” “What?!” he exclaimed, his eyes widening from shock. “I thought… I thought… f uck!” he yelled and I jumped, didn’t expect him to act this way in front of me. “I thought Cynthia pushed you out of the window because of her jealousy. I even said bad words to her…” I did nothing but look at him in silence as he spoke the words. He heaved a sigh as he made his way towards me, his hands grabbing my shoulders as he did so and shaking me slightly. Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

“Celine… why did you do that?” he asked, his eyes fixed on mine as he searched for an answer. “You were playing games with death! I can explain to her in a hundred different ways why the two of us are not destined to be together. What you did is unacceptable, Celine! That is one of the most extreme ways to-” “But, the most radical solution is actually the most extreme way getting to the bottom of the issue…” I said, cutting him off. “Jake, did this for you… For Cynthia to stop liking you. This is my way of saying thank you for all the help you’ve given me…” “What?” He asked, looking at me as if he didn’t understand what I was saying. “I… what are you trying to say?” “Let’s end our game…” “Game…?” he asked again, releasing my shoulders and walked back to the bed, sitting down. “What game are you talking about?” I let out a long, drawn-out sigh as I took a seat next to him. “Let’s put an end to this sham of a relationship. Everybody thought that we were together. Let’s end this once and for all, and make them know that it’s not really true that we’re… I gestured at us with my finger, pointing to him and then to myself. “I haven’t even made any move to you, and this is already over? We’re and this is already over? We’re over…” he asked bitterly and I nodded. “But… I like you, Celine.” What he said didn’t take me by surprise because it was so transparently obvious. “But I don’t like you, Jake… I’m really sorry…” “But… But this morning. You…” I understood exactly what he was trying to convey. This morning I made inappropriate advances towards him… flirting with him… and I deeply regret it. “My apologies…” I said, looking down. “I had the intention of doing that. And I’m sorry to have to break it to you, but I’m not the kind of person who deserves to be loved. You don’t know the real me, Jake…” “I don’t care!” he exclaimed, grabbing both of my hands and squeezing them tightly. “I know in my heart

that you’re the one for me, Celine… It doesn’t matter to me if you h ook up with a bunch different guys! The accusations they’ve made against you tha you famous across various social media platforms are nothi me. I’m willing to get married to you as long as you promise to… st with me.” I shook my head as I pulled my hands away from his grasp. “I’m sorry…” I whispered, and I heard him scoff. “Listen, Jake… I’m the kind of person who will do anything it takes to get what I want. And I am well aware that you would prefer not to become involved with someone like me. I have plans, and you are going to despise me once you find out about them…” After hearing what I had to say, he narrowed his eyes and began to appear increasingly uncomfortable. “What do you mean? What plans. are you talking about?” “You’ll see it on the day that my sister and your cousin get married…” I spoke in a whisper as I rose from the mattress and made my way toward the door. “Goodbye, Jake…” I said the last words without turning back to glance at him for the very last time. As I made my way down the stairs, I was aware that everyone had already gone to bed. I couldn’t help but c ack a sad grin as I closed the main gate, turning around to look up one last time at the Anderson Villa. After the taxi I had called pulled up directly in front of me, I opened the door and was about to get inside when someone stopped me by grasping my wrist. “Celine…” I heard Sebastian’s voice, and when I turned around, he appeared to be in a great deal of distress. His eyes were cloudy as he stared at me. “W-where are you going?” “Sebastian…” I mumbled, my hand was trembling as I reach lightly touch his face. “Will you marry me?” A And the expression that I saw on his face was not the one that aranticipated seeing from him. He was unable to utter a word becaus che looked so shocked.

ol gave a slight shake of my head and quickly got into the car, after wwhich I instructed the driver to speed off. “C”Celine!” As he pursued the taxi I was riding in, I could hear him yelling mmy name repeatedly. “Celine!” AfAfter wiping the tears that were on my face, I leaned back in my seat, clclosed my eyes, and waited for Sebastian’s voice to stop echoing ththrough my ears. This is both my destiny and my plan. To leave the city, and when I come back. I will see to it that I get my revenge on each and every one of them. It hurts that he chose Brylee over me even for the very last time have no idea why I was in so much pain, but I had to push aside every feeling that I had that was counterproductive to my strategy, so that I could move forward. I have to carry on with my plan and forget everyone, including Sebastian.
