79. ONE WISH


    SEBASTIAN’S POV


    I was waiting for the office hours toe to an end as I sat in my swivel chair and periodically checked


    the time on the watch that was attached to my wrist. It was very strange because I usually work until


    the evening, but here I was feeling anxious and excited about going home because of a girl named


    Celine who had been on my mind ever since I met her…


    My thoughts kept going back to the events that took ce in


    Cynthia’s room the night before. I was able to hear them being noisy in my room. However, when I


    couldn’t take it any longer, I stormed into my sister’s room, and what I saw made meugh out loud


    when was alone in my room; the nightgown Celine was wearing had beenpletely ruined.


    And I witnessed the shock on her face as she realized that I was able


    to see her mounds. It turned her face the color of beetroot. Even though I had seen them so many


    times before, the thought of how delicious those were still caused me to feel a flush of excitement.


    Then there was the incident that happened earlier today when she teased Jake in front of me. I will


    freely admit that I was feeling envious. I want it to be just me that she would be acting like that toward,


    rather than anyone else.


    All of those images and feelings tangled up together are running through my head, and it’s confusing


    me.


    I heaved a sigh. I have only one wish, and that’s to be able to see her every time.


    I had just finished organizing the items that were sitting on top of my desk, and was shutting down my


    laptop when I heard a knock at my

    door. I looked up to see Jason walking into my office.


    “Mr. Anderson… you are scheduled to meet with the Korean investors at three o’clock this afternoon.


    Would you like to—”


    “Cancel it…” I ordered, clicking the mouse with my finger.


    “What?”


    “Jason, you need to call off the meeting…” I muttered again before mming down the lid of myptop.


    “I’ll be leaving work early to go home. There’s something very important matter that needs to be taken


    care of at the house…”


    “Important matter?” The frown on my secretary’s face deepened. “But


    all of the important matters for you are currently here in your office. And this is the very first time that


    you have ever left the office at such an early hour. You stated before that there’s nothing more essential


    than doing your work and earning a living-”


    “Jason…” I groaned and shot him an angry nce. “Since when did you want to call into question the


    decision that I made?”


    “Uh, I’m so sorry…” He kept his attention fixed on the ground as he looked down. “I’ll cancel the


    meeting as soon as possible…”


    After he finished speaking, he bowed his head, put his heels together, and then walked out of my office.


    When I got home, I found my mother and Brylee making their way up the stairs. Mom gave the


    impression that she had warm feelings towards her son’s future wife, and the fact that she detested


    Celine


    was very obvious.


    I was relieved that they didn’t notice me, so I hurried up into my room, taking the elevator, and took a


    quick shower after lying on my bed to


    rest for a little while..

    I couldn’t help but think about what would happen if my parents were aware of what had transpired


    between the twins while I was allowing the warm water to cascade down my body. Would they hold a


    dislike for Brylee but a fondness for Celine?


    I don’t think so….


    After I had finished showering and put on somefortable clothes, I made my way out of my room. I


    saw Cynthia and Celine arrive home from school, and I noticed that Celine was not in a good mood;


    her face was gloomy, and her gaze seemed to prate everything that she saw.


    But I have no idea why she is acting as though nothing is wrong with her.


    “Celine!” I saw Jakee out of the kitchen, and I couldn’t help but frown when he walked towards the


    two girls who were working on something that looked like homework on the coffee table. “You’re home!


    I’ve been waiting for you since forever…”


    I scoffed. Really, huh?


    When my sister saw Jake take a seat next to Celine, she frowned and pursed her lips as she watched


    him do so. I heaved a sigh as I stood in the corridor on the upper floor, my palms pressed against the


    balusters as I watched them down in the living room.


    Celine merely gave Jake a polite nod in response. Because she had been so flirtatious towards him


    earlier in the day, it bothered me that


    she didn’t even make the effort to give him a smile.


    “Jake… I can’t find a solution to this problem. Can you help me


    answer it?” Cynthia wedged herself in between Celine and Jake, prompting thetter to frown but still


    check what Cynthia was asking


    him.

    “You can move on to the next question…” Jake said. “Give me a few moments, and I’ll get back to you


    on that…”


    After that, he got up from his seat and moved over to sit next to Celine. When Cynthia saw this, she


    shot a murderous re at the woman who was intently reading a book,pletely oblivious to the fact


    that the young woman sitting next to her was already trying to kill her with her gaze.


    I thought that they were already friends… and why does my sister have such a strong dislike for


    Celine?


    “Hasn’t Sebastian been home from the office yet?” I was startled when I heard my nameing from


    Celine’s mouth. Why was she looking for me in the first ce?


    “Not yet…” Jake provided a response. “It was always expected that he would return after dinner.


    Recently, he’s been inundated with work…”


    Celine gave a short nod in response to Jake, and then she snapped her head towards my sister when


    Cynthia mmed the book down on


    the table.
