Chapter 133 - I only care who he 'is' to you now
" You know him" Scott’s voice is extremely calm and void of emotions.
"Yes. I know him"
"So you rally know him then" Scott voice is still deadly calm.
The temparature of room dropped various degrees making other two persons shiver.
Shawn and his mother looked at two people whose faces are void of emotions and calm. Shawn sighed and signaled his mother that it would be better they leave the couple alone.
Then they both exited the house calmly and the couple didn’t stop them from leaving. After all it would be good if they are alone. As the door closed behind them Jean quickly sat on his lap hugging him.
Scott is not at all surprised nor angry thinking it as betrayal. He know his woman very well and if she didn’t open up about Raymond before in the their time together he will give her as much as time she want.
She had the rough past with many ups and downs in her life. He is hurt that she has to encounter something bad from her past and that he couldn’t be with her then.
"Is your nightmares yesterday because of him" Scott asked gently combing her hair with fingers.
Jean nodded her head. She is guilty that she couldn’t tell Scott about Raymond. Her heart is aching that he have to listen this not from her but from some third person.
But he is not angry nor he misunderstood. He is always considerate and understanding towards her. He might be jealous of even small things but never he took it so seriously. He respects her privacy than any other things.
"Hush. Now. Jean I will not pressurize you to explain this because I know you will never cheat on me and that you are framed here."
He raised her chin to look into her eyes. " Jean, you can say about him when you feel like to talk to me. You know that I will never force you and that I will always be with you. It doesn’t matter who he was to you back then because I only care about who he is to you now"
"He is nothing to me now. Just a bad past"
Scott felt like he got shot right on his chest. The pained voice clearly express that she still care about him. But what he was to her...
Is he not first of Jean....this thing started to haunt him. But he controlled his unstable emotions for woman in his arms who is now fragile and broken. She need him now to tend her wounded heart.
He will be her last and forever. Scott is now even more determined to pamper her more and more that her world should only fill with him. No one other than him...
He can’t bear to see Jean walking away from him. "Trust me, Scott I will say you everything I confided from you. Not now but very soon" her cold and moist lips landed on his.
The intensity of that kiss is enough for him to wipe all his insecurities away from their pure relationship. He responded to her kiss which gave her security that he will always stay with her.
Nathan who is still in the call sighed in relief. He know about Raymond in fact he knew him too well. He is still regretting that Jean met Raymond because he was his friend.
Jean met Raymond before Scott entered their life. And no one know that Nathan and Jean are pretty close even back before five years of their friendship. It ended badly and restarted again with so many efforts put in
Because of Scott, Nathan got his second chance with Jean after explaining her about the incident that broke their bond. But because of his selfishness to stay close to Jean he blamed Raymond solely on many things.
Who would have thought that Raymond will come back into picture. Nathan is now worried about consequences he have to face if Jean gets to know truth. At any cost he have to keep Jean away from Raymond.
Jean who realized that Nathan is still in call talked to him in her normal voice. "Brother. Don’t worry it is nothing"
"Jean, me and David are coming back one week earlier only. So we will meet you soon take care" he ended the call before letting his emotions run wild.
Now he is in middle of his trip to arrange his marriage. David, Sam and Daisy are accompanying him to search the beautiful location and perfect decorations to make that a grand one.
Nathan came back to his previous state after like one hour. After weighing pros and cons he decided to ask help of one person whom he never wants to ask.
After hesitating for while he dialed the number.
"Nathiee at last you called. huhhh...need my help with Raymond" the voice is extremely soft and sarcastic.
Nathan closed his eyes in disdain for calling her. " Yes. Can you..."
