Chapter 137 - How I met Raymond....
Jean giggled and sighed before starting her story. Everyone saw her serious and distressed expression and became queit ready to accept everything she would say.
"Before I met Nathan and Raymond I was so lonely and depressed. After my parents died I was sent to best boarding school by my grandparents. They no longer loved their little princess after the accident and in turn every blamed me for accident."
"I was thenas depressed and lonely as the first time you and David met me. Same like then I was yearning for support and love when Nathan came into my life. In the same way how you took care of me and protected me Nathan cared for me. But in brotherly way." Jean looked at Nathan lovingly before squeezing Scott"s hand.
" I met Raymond in same way how I met David. He is close friend of Nathan just like how David is to you. Raymond instantly became my favorite brother, Scott he was like a bodyguard to me that he saved me from every trouble and depressing emotions.But at last he was the one who caused my trauma"
"That is the reason I tried to avoid you both. I was afraid that history might repeat..."
"They both use to make me laugh and smile endlessly. Everything had been fine between three of us like two brothers caring and protecting their sister. They two use to be very close friends until Kiara came into the picture."
Jean looked sadly at Nathan whose eyes are closed as if he want to forget everything back then.
"Kiara is my roommate who joined one year after me. We became very close that I introduced her very excitedly to both my brothers. Little I knew then that both will get infatuated by sane woman."
"We four became very inseparable. My life and mental state improved little by little. Kiara was indifferent in her treatment to both of them that they never expressed their feelings to her."
" I never got to know that both of my brothers were in love with same woman. Kiara never told me how my both brothers use to hint her about their feelings because she didn"t want me to show bias between the two persons who became most important people in my life. She didn"t want to burden me."
"And I never knew that Raymond"s family is very close to my uncle"s family. I didn"t knew that Ca.s.sandra is betrothed to Raymond and though he knew about that he didn"t ever mention about that."
"Scott, if I would have known about their relation in the first place I would have s.h.i.+fted to other school by any means. Ray knows about me being cousin of Ca.s.sandra. But he never mentioned about her" Jean started sobbing again.
"One day when we were in vacation Raymond and his family visited my uncles house. It is five day visit and Nathan, Kiara also came with him. First I was so happy but later I started feeling scared."
"Every one started thinking Nathan and Aria as couple which made Raymond jealous. He was sure that Nathan didn"t harbored any feelings for Kiara. He thought that Nathan would have told him if he loved Kiara."
"So, at one of the evening he sneaked into my room. I was terrified and tried to shoo him away. But after listening to his serious confession I decided to help him. He didn"t say the girl"s name. He said it is surprise."
"Who would have thought that one of the maid will listen and mess it up as he is proposing to me. She went to Vanessa and exaggerated the things"
" I helped Ray to write a cheesy love letter which included how he felt from the time the first time he saw her. How memorial the three days they spent together in Maldives and it also contained many more like that."
" He didn"t write any name in that. He took a heart sticker and said he will write it later. I was overjoyed that I couldn"t sleep whole night "
"The next day I was dragged out of my room by my uncle. He yelled at me who Raymond is. I was startled to know the truth. As Ca.s.sandra is not there with us then the only girls in house is me and Kiara."
" My uncle somehow found the letter written by Raymond. He suspected that I seduced Raymond into my honey trap to steal him from Ca.s.s. He blamed me that I stayed in that school just for Raymond though I got admission into many other good schools"
"For the first time ever I fought back in fierce manner. I argued that it was not for me but for other girl. When I was asked for her name I couldn"t say."
"Then they asked Raymond. They…they asked for the name of girl."
"Scott, do you know whose name he said"
Jean looked at Scott sobbing and choking her words. Not only her but everyone in the room are gloomy by listening to the tragedy past of her.
