Chapter 124
She kept trying to help him stand up and all of a sudden, she fell on top of him and their lips came in contact.
Brandon became silent as he stared at her beautiful face. It was like all the pain he felt had disappeared, it was then Hannah realized he’d been pretending all along like he was in a deep pain.
Hannah quickly stood up and stared at Brandon, not knowing what to say.
“I know you are pretending to be In pain,” Hannah said angrily, hands akimbo and Brandon sighed and stood up.
“Okay now you’ve caught me, I wasn’t pretending though, my chest hurts,” Brandon said as he stood up and then moved a bit toward Hannah.
He took her hands and placed them on the left side of his chest, where the heart is located. Hannah could feel his heart beating.
She stared at his face as she felt a strange feeling running through her veins.
Her eyes moved to his lips and then to his Adam’s Apple, it was then she realized how handsome and breathtaking the man standing in front of him was.
“Hannah quickly removed her hand and slapped him on his chest.
“Stay away from me,” Hannah said and she turned and was about when Brandon held her hands making her stop.
“I haven’t gotten the opportunity to apologize properly for what I did. I’m sorry for accusing you of killing Rhoda, I should have believed you when you told me you didn’t kill her.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
I should have stopped the police from taking you away, I’m sorry, Hannah.
I have wronged you in so many ways than I can imagine, I just hope one day you forgive me and give me a chance” Brandon said and Hannah didn’t say a word.
“Please could you and the kids move in back? I promise to be a better father to the kids and a better husband to you” Brandon said and Hannah turned to him.
“I already brought the kids, and I have given you the chance to be a better father to them already but you see the both of us, I cannot give you that chance.
I will say this over and over again, the both of us cannot work out. This was all a contract marriage in the first place that was eventually gonna end in the future.
And you do not expect me to forgive you for what you did in the past and let go easily.
Even if I say I forgive you, I would be lying and it will hunt me for the rest of my life, and knowing you are the man who forced himself on me years ago, it’s just …….” Hannah paused, trying not to bring up those memories.
“I understand, But just so you know, I won’t stop until I make it up to you. I won’t stop until you give me a chance.
And thank you for bringing the kids yesterday” Brandon said and Hannah nodded and was about to leave when she turned and spoke.
“I won’t, because of how I feel, separate my children from their father. The kids would be living here with you and Arianna” Hannah said
“What about you?” Brandon asked
“I would stay if you agree to stay away from me,” Hannah said and Brandon’s facial expressions became a sad one.
He sighed softly and then nodded.
“Fine, you can stay here, I promise I will stay away from you,” Brandon said and Hannah smiled at him.
“My dress looks good on you, you should wear it more often,” Brandon said and Hannah rolled her eyes.
“Jeff would be coming over for dinner later in the day. We have a wedding to plan” Brandon said and Hannah nodded in response.
He stared at her for a few seconds and was about to leave the room when he suddenly turned towards her.
“If I’m going to stay away from you while you live here then I’m gonna have to do this,” he said and moved towards her and suddenly he placed his lips on hers and kissed her passionately, like his life depended on it.
Hannah became numb instantly, she didn’t fight him or push him away, instead she let him.
He pulled away from the kiss and stared at her,
“We have to pretend to be a real couple out there today, after that, I promise to stay away from you,” Brandon said as he removed a strand of hair from her face.
He then kissed her on her forehead and then walked out of the room.
Hannah jolted out of her thoughts as she realized what had just happened, Brandon fucking kissed her, she thought as she sat on the bed.
She placed her hands on her lips, she didn’t know why but she liked the kiss.
Meanwhile, Jessica is seen walking out of the house. She needed to meet up with her best friend Krystal. She had texted Krystal and asked her to meet up with her. Her plan was to confront her.
She walked out of the house, hopped inside her car and drove off to the location they wanted to meet. It was the bar where Jessica had first met Jeff.
Her car came to a stop in front of the bar, she climbed out of the car and walked in. There she met Krystal speaking to a guy she recognized.
That was Dave, Jeff’s friend. She knew Dave and Krystal had something going on between them.
“Hey,” Jessica muttered as she walked towards them.
“Hey, thank God you are here, I was about to call you. I miss you so much” Krystal whined and kissed Jessica on her cheeks.
“I miss you too,” Jessica said as she sat down. Just then she saw Jeff walk towards them and join them.
“Hey, I didn’t know you would be coming” Jessica muttered as she stood up and hugged Jeff then kissed him on his cheeks.
“I just wanted to surprise you, Krystal said you wanted to meet up with her, so I said we should hang out” Jeff said and she Raised her eyebrows wondering this is how Krystal tells Jeff everything they’ve been talking about. She and Jeff both sat down.
“So, Jessica I heard you and Jeff are both getting married,” Dave said and Jessica smiled.
“Yeah” Jessica muttered
“Congratulations, I’m so happy for you. Jeff is a good man and you both deserve each other” Dave said and Jessica scoffed inwardly.
“We sure do deserve each other because this time, you will learn not to mess with the Colbys,” Jessica thought.
“So, Jessica, have you guys fixed a date for the wedding?”
