The Last Embrace

Chapter 174

The next day.

Jessy woke up before Adam did.

She entered the toilet and stayed there for a few minutes and went back to bed afterward.

Back in the bed, she stared at Adam"s handsome face, beneath the happy and cool exterior is a tormented guy, he just can"t forgive himself for betraying his brother and it"s one reason why he was constantly in torment.

How can she help Adam?

While the thing that Zain ever wanted is to get his power back and Jessy, of course, in Zain"s eyes Jessy was always been his destined bride and with the sudden turn of events everything changed, his and Adam"s destiny was reversed.

All she ever wanted is to stay on Adam"s side forever, she rightfully belongs to him.

If she didn"t meet Adam first, she and Zain might have a chance but then she could only love one person, her heart and loyalty only belong to one person and that is Adam, he is the love of her life.

If she no longer exists between them...

Would they patch up their differences and heal their sibling rivalry?

In the end, she considered herself the bane of the brothers" existence.

Suddenly, Adam"s eyes opened slowly...

"Good morning, Jess!" he said.

"Good morning, handsome!" she responded while smiling at him. "Let"s talk about what you said last night," she said.

"Wait a sec..." he said.

Adam stood up and went to the bathroom, after a few minutes he went back to the bed and faced Jessy.

"Today, my parents will hold a meeting between you and Hannah regarding the plan to tell Zain the truth, I am doubting if it will make my brother"s situation any better. He hits rock bottom already and telling him that his wife is fake might send his hatred skyrocketing over the roof. I just don"t agree with their decision, I think it"s still not the proper time for the truth to be revealed. Any bad news that can add to his injury will surely make my brother lose his sanity...I"m really worried about my brother"s condition, I wanted to help him," he said, sadness was teeming in his eyes.

"I"m so sorry that because of me, you and Zain"s sibling relationship has been destroyed," Jessy said apologizing for the mistake of being caught in the middle causing the brother"s misunderstanding of each other.

"Shhh, don"t say that Jess. Between the three of us I"m the one who is at fault here, the problem originated with me but loving you is a choice that I made long time ago, I have no regret loving you, my only wish back then is that you were never the bride that is meant for my brother... too bad you are, that is the only problem here, other than that we are perfect as a couple, right?"

Jessy smiled and caresses Adam"s chin. "Yes indeed, we are perfect for each other, I hope we will remain that way forever. I"m hoping you will never change. Just remember that my love for you will stay with you forever no matter what may happen to us ahead," she said.


They looked into each other"s eyes, the love they have for each other was overflowing in their hearts making them lightheaded. The euphoric feeling of being loved in return by the person that you love so much is making their eyes shined the brighter.

"Adam, if one day I will die or disappear from your life you should start loving other people. I don"t want you to be alone, try to make yourself happy, don"t lose your zest in life. But as long I"m still alive you can"t love anyone only me, okay?" Jessy said.

Adam was shaking his head. "You will never die, Jess, we can never be apart from each other. If I will ever make a mistake one day, would you forgive me, Jess?" he asked.

"It depends what kind of mistake, I"m a forgiving person especially to the people I love," she looked at his face closely. "Why---are you asking me this? Are you planning to do something behind my back?"

"No, I will try not to do something stupid and I won"t go against your wishes, just that life is full of surprises, you will never know what lays ahead. Sometimes people can make spur of the moment life-altering decision. Some situation might arise that requires action from us and we thought that its the right decision to make at that particular time but later on it becomes totally wrong and produces bad results. I will say it in a short sentence, it goes like this...We might make the right decisions today that will have a bad effect in our lives later on," Adam explained.

Jessy raised her brow. "Only time can judge if what we did on that particular time is right or wrong, but then when it comes to you, if you made a mistake and as long I can tolerate it, I won"t hold it against you. I will be a forgiving girlfriend to you," she said. She loves Adam so much, whatever he will do in the future, she will try to keep an open mind about his mistakes and weaknesses, that"s the only way she can prove to him that her love for him knows no boundary.

"Thank you so much, Jess! I"m so blessed and so lucky that you love me," Adam said, he reached for her, pulling her close to his body and wrapped his arms around her.

They just continue talking enjoying their togetherness, they feel good having a heart to heart talk once in a while.

After sometime.

"Let"s go back to the topic of Hannah and you, the two of you will be facing Zain anytime soon, are you ready for it? You want me inside the room during the truth reveal?" Adam said.

Jessy shook her head. "Nah, no need. I think I can handle Zain alone. He"s is no longer a threat to me because he has no power that he can use against me, the best he could do is shout at me, I"m already expecting that he will feel extreme anger towards me for betraying him by using Hannah to deceive him, I just hope that his anger will start fading away fast so that he can learn to accept Hannah quickly into his heart," she said.

Adam kept the rest of his thoughts to himself. If he has to put himself on his brother"s shoes...getting betrayed by the woman you love so much is an absolute stab on the back and the worst thing...Hannah is also involved in the betrayal...Hannah has been his brother"s long-time confidant. The truth may set everyone involved free but he knew his brother so well, Zain won"t take things lightly.

He reached for Jessy"s tresses and began twirling them on his fingers. "Let"s going to have a romantic date in the mansion this weekend, Jess. Let"s sleep there for the whole night," he suggested.

"Okay," she smiled lovingly at him looking forward to their incoming date.
