Love You Or Hate You, I Can't Decide, Book2

“we are getting engaged today…”

Episode-185 "we are getting engaged today..."

Steven's POV:

I am frustrated... he said that... does that

means he forced her to be in bed with him?... this though is burning my skin... I

need to find a way to make her free from Ernest's cage... he is indirectly

pressuring her.. is that why she refuses to get engaged to me?...

I want to grab

her shoulders and ask her did she slept with him but I can't... she is already

angry on me.. I won't act reckless.. I called Mr. Turner, I said, "Mr. Turner...

prepare everything.. I am getting engaged to Celeste today itself..." Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Mr. Turner asked, "so

suddenly?.. is everything fine?.."

I said, "I just don't

want Prince to stand a chance.... It would be good if the engagement happens

soon." I ended the call.

I called my

workers and said, "did you get anything about the royal siblings?"

Worker: no sir.... We

are trying to track anything but we found nothing...

I said in anger,

"I don't care.. I want them at any cost..."

Worker: we are

trying... but our informers are getting killed or getting missing .... We don't

know what is happening... they were initially spying around Palace.... We have no

clue where to start...

I know it's Prince

Ernest... but I won't give up.. his only weakness is his siblings..... I need to

find them....

Celeste's POV:

Ace is driving me home, he asked, "you look lost..."

I just whispered, "I

don't know.." Ace said, "Celeste.... you can tell me anything... don't be distant

because I confessed to you... I except nothing from you, I want to give you

time..." he added as he kept driving, "you can share your worried with me.. I

will listen as a friend... tell me what is wrong?"

I sigh and said,

"nothing... I am not in mood.." I don't want to tell him about today... I need to

fix it myself... I whispered, "I want to rest..." I closed my eyes... I really need

some peace.. Ace is nice, I admit... he is perfect, no ego... and supporting..

thinks about me before anything... it feels wrong somehow...

I walked in the

house and I saw dad and Steven talking to each other... I noticed the decoration,

I furrowed and asked, "dad... what is this?"

Steven answered,

"we are getting engaged today..." I am so angry right now.. why wasn't I

informed... I should be the one to be informed..

I turned to dad and

dad said, "I won't force you Cele... there is no one in this engagement other

than us..... but this engagement should be done earlier.. I think it's right,...

it's only way to keep Prince Ernest away from you..." I am speechless..

Steven said,

"Celeste... can I talk with you?" I looked at him, dad is right, and now I just

want to defeat Prince Ernest... I nodded and said, "ok.. we can talk.."

Steven and I are

standing in my room, I folded my hands around my chest, I am still mad at him. he

said, "Celeste.. I am sorry for that day... I didn't like when someone talked in

between us... I know I over reacted, I became protective to you because I am

already worried about Prince's matter... I fear he might harm you since he made

you work there..." I sigh... he is right... maybe I overreacted too...

I nodded and said,

"fine... but still you fixed the engagement today... I should be informed about

it.... I clearly asked for time.."
