Chapter 38: chapter 38

Kylen's POV,Eleanor and I were dumbstruck recognizing Sam's girlfriend. Both of us eventually got out of the car."Hey guys!", Sam waved his hand.Nor and I looked at each other, while that woman was chuckling along Sam. "What was her name again?", I whispered to her.I proudly don't remember her name. Sam and she were heading towards us."Eleanor?!", I nudged her by elbow.She shook her head, "Yeah. Um. Jennifer.""Hello! Pleasant to meet you both. Again.", she faked her smile."You guys know each other?!", Sam was puzzled."Oh. She is-"I cut off Jennifer before she could say a word about Nor, "Jennifer is Shawn's sister."Sam stood idle."Correction. I'm his half-sister.", she looked at me, playing with her hair.She was purposefully ignoring Nor."I don't think it is right for me to be here today.", Nor looked at me.I glared at her, "Don't be stupid."Sam grabbed me, "When did you meet Jenny?""You were drunk at a pub, the other night. Remember? Eleanor and I were walking outside when this woman and her brother or half brother or whatever. They started throwing tantrums on Nor. You weren't there with us."Sam blinked, holding his waist."Oh. My brother told me that he rescued you, yesterday. My brother has always been sweet and helpful, unlike some other people."Nor grinned, "I thanked him right there itself, Jenny. And you are right, I'm glad that Shawn isn't like his sister."Jenny was irked, "Well, I think we should go inside Sam."Sam looked at me, I gestured him to go inside with her.Jenny crossed her arm with Sam as they moved away.Eleanor leaned onto car's doorframe with crossed arms."Is she using Sam to hurt you? I swear to God-""Kylen, we can't judge her by my view. I have told you, she is a good person, but just not to me.", she sighed.I stood beside her."Look, I'm going to the office.""No!""Listen to me,", she carsed my face, "I'm not afraid of her. I can ignore her presence just like that.""Then why do you want to run away?", I frowned.She chuckled, "I'm running away because I don't want your dad and grandma to witness these complications. I don't want them to see a drama unfolding because of my past. Let them get to know her.""But-"I stared at her."Kylen", she held my hand, "I'm already bonded with your fam. I'll come some other time. Okay?""I'll drop you to the office.", I said unlocking my car."My taxi is here."She doesn't spare a chance of stunning me.Her office is quite far from here. She wants me to stay and spend some time with family.I pulled her into my arms, "You are one heaven of a woman, sorting out everything by yourself."She giggled, "Thanks for understanding, Kylen.""Hmm. Take care.""You too.""Text me after you reach the office.""I will!", she sat inside the car.I went inside. Surprisingly, I saw Jennifer being good with everyone. Sam and she were literally smitten with each other.But would I believe it so easily? Nope.Sam and I were in the kitchen, when I asked him, "Didn't you get any other woman other than Shawn's sister to love in this freaking enormous world?""How was I supposed to know?", he shrugged his shoulders, "She did talk about her family including her brother, Shawn. And I thought there are countless number of people out there named as 'Shawn'!"I laughed, "You're right. It is not your fault.""Hope Ela is fine.", Sam sighed, "I don't want to lose my friendship.""Dumbo, she knows what she does. She will never make you choose between Jennifer and her. Relax."He nodded.I was watering my plants when the devil's voice was heard."I want you to know something."I didn't face her and continued my job."Well, I hate Eleanor for what she did to Shawn.", Jenifer stood next to me, sniffing the flowers."As far as I remember it is Shawn who hurted Eleanor. Not the other way round.", I walked to the other side. "And look at the destiny, I fell in love with one of the kidnappers who abducted my brother's bride. And Ela fell in love with the kidnapper who kissed her.", she chuckled, "Poor brother, what can he do."She kept following me, like a witch."You guys are good. No wonder why she forgot Shawn so easily.""Are you here for wronging me?", I asked straight to her face."Nope. Shawn would kill me if I got on my bad self."She plucked a flower, "I'm here to tell you that, Shawn still loves Eleanor, despite everything." I paused, looking at her."And that is why I hate her."
