Chapter 25 – Stalker Ex & Brother
Lily’s Pov
“Calm down, Lily, we just wanna talk,” Jacob answered.
I scoffed, “You have some nerve telling me what to do.”
I then noticed the stitches on his nose and I giggled, “Oh this new look suits you. It says, ‘everyone look at me, I’m a narcissistic loser.’ I’m taking another picture for future reference.” Jacob sighed, “Laugh at me if that makes you feel better, Lily, I fucked up and I wanna fix it.” I scoffed, “If you wanna fix it then get out of my face.”
Peter staggered forward and I frowned, I could perceive the alcohol on his breath.
“I’m so sorry, Lily, I hurt you and I didn’t fulfil my promise. Please kill me!” he cried, falling on his
knees.
“Please, Lily, we need you. Peter is falling apart, he’s been drinking since you left and you know what that does to him,” Jacob begged.
I stared at the pathetic losers before me. Peter was on the floor sobbing furiously while Jacob looked like someone pissed in his meal.
A wicked smile spread on my lips as I stepped forward and kicked Peter in his ribs. He fell to the ground, still sobbing.
‘Yes, Jacob, I know drinking makes Peter more pathetic than he already is but newsflash honey 1. Don’t. Give. A. Fuck!”
Jacob gasped, “How could you say that, Lily? The last time he drank was when our parents died. How can you stand there and gloat knowing that he’s slowly killing himself? I never knew you to be this cruel. Yes, we hurt you and we’re here to make things right, but please have mercy. If you wanna hurt anyone, take it out on me.”
There was a time that would’ve gutted me. A time when the mere mention of Peter crying would’ve made me drop to my knees. But that Lily died when I set their mansion on fire.
stared at him and shook my head, “You pathetic piece of shit, how dare you? Yes, I’m fucking cruel and all that will make me happy is to see your both slowly suffer and die miserably. You have no idea what you put me through so don’t fucking stand there and talk to me else I’ll break your fucking legs!”
Jacob stared at me, his eyes filled with tears, “It’s like you’re a different person, I don’t even ecognize you. Is it the men you’ve been with that’s making you act this way? How much are hey giving you, I’ll give you twice of that, just come home and stop this insane behavior right
10w.”
At that moment, I lost it. The nerve of this bastard to speak to me like this.
smiled and walked up to him, my eyes suddenly docile like how it used to be when I was with nim.
‘I’m so sorry, Jacob,” I started to say, and I could see the smile forming on his lips, “I’m so sorry hat you’re an asshole who can’t read the fucking room.”
His face twisted with anger and before he could say anything, I kneed him in the balls.
He groaned loudly, collapsing on the floor as he clutched his crotch.
I stood over them as they lay miserable on the floor, “You pathetic assholes, if I see you anywhere near me I will make sure you fucking regret it. Get this into your pigheaded skull, I’m not going anywhere with you.”
While they groaned on the floor, I tapped my feet impatiently and called security. They arrived promptly.
“Get these assholes out of here and the person who let them in is fired!” I said and stormed into
the house.
The following day I woke up to see my parents staring at me. Jerking up in bed, I frowned and rubbed my sleepy eyes.
“What the hell? You guys scared me,” I grumbled.
“Sorry, honey, we’ve been trying to wake you,” my mom said.
I frowned, “What happened now?”
“Aside from the fact you need to go to work?” my dad asked in a teasing voice.
I groaned, “I have an alarm clock for that.”
“Honey, we went on a date last night and didn’t come home. When we returned we were informed by the security about what happened,” my mom said.
“Yeah, we should have been here for you and we’re sorry. But we’re happy to see that you’re more than capable of handling the situation yourself,” my dad added, grinning.
I smiled, “It’s alright. I can’t always have you guys around to protect me or Damon. I have to stand up for myself now.”
“The security who let them in has been fired already,” my father informed me.
“Thank you, Parents. Now, can I prepare for work?”
“Have fun today, love,” they said and left.
I picked up my phone and saw a text message from Damon.
Hi, Princess, I had the best sleep I’ve had in years because you invaded my dreams. Now you’ve invaded both my waking and sleeping world and I love it. What do you say to having dinner tonight? You’d be my dessert. Have a nice day, Beautiful.’
A small blush crept up my cheeks. He managed to still make me blush from a single text.
I dressed up and drove to the office. My secretary met me coming out of the elevator as she took my bag.
“You have two people waiting for you in your office, Miss, they’re here with a business proposal and need our company to invest,” she informed me.
I nodded and opened my office door. As I stepped in, a slow smile spread across my lips.
Sitting down in my office were Jacob and Peter.
“Well, well, well, look what the ill wind blew into my office,” I said snarkily.
