Living With A Narcissistic Brother In-law

Chapter 159 - You Are Getting Married?

Zeya looked at Sebastian and sighed. He was sitting on the couch silently. He hadn't spoken a word since the men took Lucas away.

''Are you alright?'' Zeya asked as she sat across him.

Sebastian shook his head and stood up. Zeya stood up with him and held his hand.

''You are hurt. Sit down, I will bring the first aid''

''No, don't worry''

''No. Just sit down and stop being stubborn, Sebastian. I will be right back'' she said before going to her room.

Zeya returned with a first aid box and sat across him. she opened the box and removed the cotton bud with the disinfectant.

''You got hurt trying to save me, I should take care of you and also, don't worry. I know I shouldn't fall for a man like you, I know my limits''

Sebastian looked at her. He didn't say anything and simply watched as she dressed the cuts on his knuckles.

''It's going to hurt a little''

''What about you? Are you alright? Lucas almost…'' Sebastian didn't need to continue his statement but Zeya understood what he meant.

''Mm, I'm fine. I am much stronger than I look. I don't put a lot of thought into what people say about me, especially people that I no longer care about. But, what about you? he opened an old wound. Senior is no longer in this world''

''I am fine. I will sleep on the couch, go and sleep. I will leave tomorrow''

''Are you… sleeping here?''

''Do you want me to go? I thought you would be scared and would need me. But, if you are okay, then…'' Sebastian tried to stand up and Zeya pushed him back.

''I am not okay. You can sleep here. I will go and bring you beddings'' Zeya closed the first aid box and stood up with it.

Sebastian smiled and leaned against the couch as he watched her walk away. His mind suddenly went to Ines.

A few years back, Ines was a rising star in the acting industry. She was very talented and also happened to be his friend. A friend he had been in love with since he could remember but she never thought of him as more than a friend.

She later fell for Lucas but it didn't end up and they broke up. Later on, she passed away in an accident that he was still investigating.

When Zeya returned and saw him in deep thoughts, she sighed. She knew he was thinking about Ines, her senior. She was also close to Ines at that time. Ines taught her a lot of things that she was grateful for.

Zeya shook her head and sent the beddings to the couch. She saw that Sebastian's eyes were closed.

''Is he sleeping?'' she asked herself and then took the sheets and covered him with him before turning to go. she felt a sudden pulled and fell into the couch.

''Don't leave me'' Sebastian muttered as he adjusted his body into the couch. He pulled Zeya's hand closer and placed his head on her hand, sleeping.

''Sebastian, you… my hand will become numb at this rate'' Zeya said but didn't pull away. She sat down on the floor and moved closer to his face. She used her free hand to trace his face.

''Whoa, his brows are really thick. Too bad, it's a waste on his face''

After watching him for a while, Zeya yawned and also fell asleep.

Late in the night, Sebastian woke up. He opened his eyes and saw Zeya sleeping by his side. Their faces were closer to each other.

Sebastian smiled and watched her for a while before standing up, ''your body will ache if you sleep like this, Zeya''

Sebastian lifted her and sent her into her bedroom. He laid her and covered her up before going out, back to the couch.

….

Zeya opened her eyes and sat up on the bed. She got down and hurried to the hall but she didn't see anyone there. She pouted her lips and looked at the centre table and saw a piece of note on the table. She picked it up and read it.

''See you at the script meeting later on'

Zeya smiled and folded the note neatly before going to her room.



Mikael and Natalie's house.

Natalie walked out of their bedroom to the hall where Mikael was chatting with Thomas.

''I'm leaving first'' Natalie said as she leaned down to kiss Mikael's cheek.

''Wait, I will send you''

''No need. You and Thomas still have a lot to talk about. I am taking the car. I will be going to Song Group with Lucy to discuss the project with Mr. Song''

''Natalie, will you be okay going there? You just got out of the hospital and you are already going to work'' Thomas said worriedly.

''I will be fine. Trust me, I know how to handle myself better now''

''But, Daniel Song still suspects you. He will try everything possible to sniff something out of you. What if he says something that will trigger your emotions?''

''Thomas, you are not know this but I am very clever than you think. With Daniel Song's IQ, he proclaims himself as someone smart but he is actually careless. He thinks that he is smart and I don't remember anything. People like that leave clues that they don't even realise they do. Don't worry, I have this under control. Besides. I won't be there alone. I am going with Lucy''

''Then, be careful and call me if anything is amiss''

''Yes, darling'' Natalie picked her bag and keys and left the house.

''What did you do with the cactus plant?'' Thomas asked after Natalie left.

''We left it at the hospital… where it belonged''

''That's great. I can't believe the guts of this man''

''How are things at your end? I mean with the man who is working with Daniel Song''

''He… he seems to take my warnings lightly but, I plan to visit him today and remind him not to mess with me''

''I will also be meeting with Mrs. Song today at lunch''

''When do you plan on letting Natalie know the truth about her mother? She will be heartbroken if you keep this too long''

''I know, but I don't have the right to tell her this. You know that too. The only person who can open up about it is Mrs. Song''

''I understand. For now, let's focus on the connection those three have. There must be a certain connection between Solace, Daniel and Natalie's late father''

''Mm''

….

Natalie arrived and pulled over at the car park. She got down and walked to Lucy who was standing at the entrance waiting for her.

''Hi, Lucy''

''Hi, Nat. it feels like forever since I last saw you'' Lucy hugged Natalie.

''Me too. How was your trip?''

''It was alright. But, I didn't have any rest at all. I attended meeting upon meeting, I hardly had time to play around''

''But, you learnt a lot, right?''

''Mm. Natalie wait. I have something to give you''

''What is it?''

Lucy opened her bag and brought out a wedding invitation card, ''this…''

''Lucy, you and Matt are getting married?''

''Mm''

''This is great news, Lucy. I am so happy for you''

''We just want to do something small. I don't like extravagant weddings. What matters is our happiness''

''That's right''

''That said, would you be my bridesmaid?''

''Do you even need to ask. I will be your bridesmaid, of course''

''Thank you, I was so anxious''

''What is there to be anxious about? Let's go inside'' Natalie pulled Lucy as she entered the company building. They stopped by the elevator and Natalie pressed the bottom.

''Because of me, Matt doesn't want to make this known to everyone. He just told his cousin, Amy and a few members of team''

''That's good. You don't have to bother with what people will say. What matters is Matt's love and respect for you''

''Mm, thank you Natalie''

The elevator door opened and they saw William and Amy inside. William's gaze lit up when he saw Natalie but the latter simply looked at him with an indifferent gaze.

''Natalie, Lucy you are here already'' Amy said and smiled. She looked at Natalie and asked, ''how do you feel, Natalie?''

''I am fine, Amy''

''Natalie, let's talk in my office. I need to talk to you about the Song Group Project''

''Mm, sure'' Natalie not into the elevator with them. as they went upstairs, the elevator became awkward.

''Lucy, congratulations to you''

''Thank you, Amy''

Natalie took out her phone and started scrolling. She was aware of the penetrating gaze of William on her but she chose to ignore it.

''I will leave you'' Lucy said when the elevator stopped at her floor.

''See you later, Lucy'' Natalie said and Lucy nodded her head.

The door closed again, sending them to the last floor.

Amy looked at William and Natalie quietly. She didn't have much to say anymore, since William was bent on having Natalie at all cost. She wanted him to give up willingly after he faces so many obstacles.
