SWNOVELS Chapter 4
Chapter 4 Bully
I had a nightmare during the night, in my nightmare there's man, but I couldn't make out his face clearly. He's above me, like an animal trying to rip my shirt off. I'm terrified and kept screaming out for Leo to help me.
The man was heavy, I couldn't even breath properly, my lips were bitten by him and he wouldn't leave my lips alone. The dream is too real, I can really feel the sensation on my lips, and the man's palm is massaging me.
When the man's hand insert went under my night-gown, I realized this is too real to be a dream and woke up in the middle of the night. The moonlight shine through the window and I can see the man's face. He looks a bit like Leo, maybe I just woke up so my thought aren't clear enough, for a split second I thought it was Lance. I hugged the man's neck and kissed him back, my lips mumbling: "Leo, is that you? I know it's you, you can't leave me, right? Leo I love you."
Just when I was kissing him back passionately, second brother stopped kissing and pushed me away. My head banged against the bed and I heard the bedroom door bang shut.
I shouted for him, but Leo never came back in.
He kissed me just like that, out of nowhere and confused me even further.
The next day, mom woke me up for breakfast but I didn't want to face Leo and Lance so I told her that i'm sick and that I need more sleep.
Mom said the same thing again, your uncle Mason will be upset.
To be honest, I really look down on women like my mom. For love, they can put down their pride and ego. But, am I different from my mom in front of Leo?
Tomorrow is Leo's wedding, Lance and Uncle Mason started to discuss about the wedding at the dining table. The Mason's family is a rich and powerful family, of course they have to make sure the wedding goes accordingly and perfectly.
Lia laid on Leo's shoulder, looking cute and innocent. She hurts my eyes.
"Jennie, did you not have a good night sleep last night? Why are your eyes swollen?" Lia asked, pretending to care.
I forced myself to smile and answer her: "I was drawing last night, I slept late."
I was actually crying, I'm hurt that Leo gave up on me.
Mom knew my work is hard, I'm an interior designer, a lot of things are done by me, physically. Even during holiday I still need to draft out designs and designs.
"America is a good country and place to work in, I don't understand why you would fly so far away to work and can't even have proper 3 meals a day. Why not you stay in America to work? What do you think about this, Robert?" My mom asked Uncle Mason.
Timmediately understood my mom's intention. Lance is managing the biggest property company in America, and he also owns a famous interior designing company. Mom wanted me to work under the Mason's family so that I might have a chance to et upper-class people and marry someone powerful. She's doing this for me, but her kind of love, is wrong.
Uncle Mason looked at Lance and said: “Lance, Jennie is one of the top achievers in this designing area, I think it's a good idea to let her work in Elegance Interior Designing Enterprise.”
Lance hated me, he wouldn't be willing to let me wrk in his own company, Uncle Mason knew this, but he talked to Lance about it out of formality.
I remained silent, because I knew Lànce will confirm reject me and might even try to embarrass me.
"Alright, since Elegance is also hiring new interior designers now, after holiday she can go for interview."
I looked up at Lance, who was sitting opposite of me, with surprise. Since when did he become so kind?
Lance's eyes met mine, his eyes were dark and cold.
"Jennie, thank your brother!"
Mom cried out happily, pulling my arm.
Thesitated for a brief moment and said: "Thanks brother, but i'm fine in my current company, I still don't have plans to change company."
"Jennie, what are you doing?! Your brother's company is globally famous, isn't that way better than your current little company?"
Mom heard what I said and got angry.
"If Jennie doesn't want to go, then don't force her. I know she's been working hard, of course she wouldn't want people to think that she entered a company using relations, don't force her, Karen." Uncle Mason said softly.
I scoffed to myself, seems like not only Lance hates me, Robert Mason doesn't really like my existence too.
I go to other places to work which means he doesn't get to see me a lot, he just
Chapter 4 Bully doesn't like the fact that my mother gave birth to another man's child.
"Mom, Uncle Mason is right, you should stop worrying about me too much, i'm an adult now."
I haven't even got the chance to finish my sentence when Lance got up from his seat and left, saying: "Ungrateful woman!"
What?
Tomorrow is Leo Mason's wedding, according to their family tradition, Lia was sent to stay in a luxurious 5-star hotel a night before the wedding.
Tomorrow, the Mason's Family will welcome her to the family from the hotel.
The person that I love most is getting married and I haven't gotten him a gift. Looking at my own reflection in the mirror, millions of insane thoughts crossed my mind. The man I love is marrying someone else, and i'm still a virgin, i'm not willing to lose my virginity to another person.
I think I must be crazy to even imagine giving my virginity to my second brother as a wedding gift.
I sent him a message and asked him to meet me at the spot where he celebrated my birthday with mein secret. I asked him to meet me at Romance Hotel, room 520.
In the same hotel, same room that time when I was 17, we were still innocent step-siblings. Leo treated me well behind his family's back and even saved up his allowance to buy me nice dresses and shoes. When I was 17, Lance was already 25, he already nearly took over the whole household ad business. He cut off my school fees and my allowances. Uncle Mason chose to close an eye and ignore this. I'm also a stubborn person. Since he didn't want to pay for me, then so be it. I worked hard to earn my fees and my allowances during my free time. Lance noticed Leo giving me some money and cut part of his allowance too. That time, Leo has already been studying overseas, so needed a lot of money but he still managed to transfer me some.
Why do I love him so much? I guess it's because he's the only one who makes me feel loved and cared for.
I wore a long red dress and sat on the bed in the hotel, waiting for him.
My mom is a very gorgeous woman, but my biological father looks average. I got both of their genes. I can't say that I'm a gorgeous lady but I do think that I am beautiful. After putting on som make-up, I successfully enhanced my features even more.
I looked at my reflection in the mirror and smiled bitterly, such a waste that a young
lady like me will never love again.
