Chapter 223: Despicable Thought

Evan was confused why his father-in-law suddenly asked about the apartment.

"Yes. We have a house at Starlight Apartment, five minutes drive from here." Evan said.

"That’s perfect. You guys don’t need to stay here. This place is not comfortable...." Nicholas wanted to say, not comfortable for a newlywed like them, but he held his words. "But, for tonight, it’s ok to stay here. This is almost midnight. You guys can continue to sleep...."

Evan felt delighted hearing his father-in-law’s words. He wanted to ask his wife to sleep in their apartment because it was close to the hospital, so they could come here anytime if something happened. But he didn’t have the heart to ask her. His wife wanted to accompany her mother even though she was not yet awake.

"Yes, father, we will stay here tonight."

Later...

Nicholas stood from his seat after he saw his daughter yawning a few times and her eyes were slightly red. She looks exhausted. "We should go now. You guys take a rest well...." He said in a hurry as he urged Marcel and Doris to follow him.

When they walk to the Recovery Room, Marcel suddenly recalls Nicholas’ words; he wanted to marry Molly after she awakened.

"Brother Nick, so you already decided to marry Molly?"

"Yes! I have no reason to delay. I’ve been waiting for this moment for more than twenty-three years...." Nicholas stops his step right before the glass window in front of the Recovery Room. His eyes are staring at Molly.

"I already talked to my daughter, and she agreed. Do you want to know what my daughter said?" Nicholas turns his body to look at Marcel.

A faint smile appeared on his face before continuing his words, "Rose said; Her mother was never interested in other men. And when Molly regained her memories about me, she felt a broken heart. I know Molly is also like me, Marcel. That day I wanted to tell her to become my girlfriend, and I was serious about being in a relationship with her; I thought of marrying her...." He pauses for a deep sigh. He felt his heart tighter remembering that day.

"So, I have no more reason to delay our marriage. We are both adults and have a daughter. Besides, the sooner I officially marry her, the more legal Rose’s status will be in the eyes of the law...." Nicholas felt sorry for her daughter growing up without a father figure.

Marcel agrees with his brother’s decision. "That’s great, brother! Hopefully, from now on my sister-in-law will live a happier life. I heard from Doris that Molly had breast cancer surgery a few months ago..."

"I know..." Nicholas knows thru Molly’s medical records. "Marcel, please tell Anthony not to say anything to other people about Molly and Rose, especially to my Father. I will talk to my Father first after returning from North City."

Nicholas will finish his project in a few days and meet his Father after that. He will bring Molly and Rose to meet his Father.

"Don’t worry, brother. I will tell him...."

"Alright! You can go back home now. For tonight, I will stay here." Nicholas patted Marcel’s shoulder lightly before continuing, "Please help take a look at my wife for a while until I return."

Empire club. The hottest place in the capital is where celebrities, influencers, politicians, and moguls in this city hang out and enjoy the night with friends or family. This massive club has a complete entertainment venue: restaurants, bars, karaoke rooms, Spa, and sports facilities. A place where many activities are offered so that this place is never empty. In fact, to be able to enter this place requires a membership. And not just anyone can get the membership.

It was getting late at one of the bars in the Empire club. The faint sound of EDM music played by a female DJ could be heard. The bar atmosphere was lively even though it was raining heavily outside. Noah Stone sat alone on the single burgundy sofa at one of the corner tables on the second floor near a glass wall overlooking the city.

On the table beside him, there’s a bottle of almost empty whiskey. His head hung low, looking down at the empty crystal glass in his hand. He ignored his surroundings. He also doesn’t enjoy the EDM music from downstairs. He was in a daze, thinking about what had happened in the past few days.

Returning from his trip to Europe, he faced a peculiar reality that had left him unable to think straight. Find out that Rose Wilson, who he thought was like his little sister, is now married.

Noah never imagined that Rose would get married so soon at a young age. She is only twenty-two years old. He thought Rose would marry after she was successful in building her business. But apparently, he was wrong.

But what made him feel confused now was a strange feeling rising in his deep heart, knowing Rose was married to another man. He felt angry and betrayed. This news is like a heavy blow to him. It was as if someone had slapped him so hard and made him wake up from his deep slumber.

At first, he ignored the foreign feeling rising in his heart. Tries to reason by telling himself; This feeling is just the feeling of an older brother who is worried that another man has taken his little sister.

But, today, when he saw Rose in his husband’s arms and their loving gaze, their affection for each other made him unable to keep his cool. For the first time in his entire life, he felt jealous.

He had no reason to be jealous of Evan.

Why should he be jealous?

He wasn’t Rose’s lover.

Not even Rose’s actual brother. But, why is the feeling of jealousy so strong and could make his heartache and his mind feel like it wants to explode!? Too noisy!

He was confused.

"Did I love her?" Noah was stunned by what he said. "For real, Noah! What the hell are you thinking!? She is your little sister...."

This feeling is killing him. How could he fall in love with a little girl who he already considers like his own sister!?

He shook his head slightly to throw away his despicable thoughts and feelings.
