Chapter 42: Chapter 42

Kiara POV

It's been a week since Kaye talked to me, I almost couldn't sleep well because of what she said, I shouldn't have anything to worry about because I didn't do anything wrong during those times, and one more thing I know he knows the mistakes I made because my brother told him. I just didn't know what Kaye was saying.

I know that Nigel has also noticed my anxiety, but when he asks questions, I often say that I'm just tired from work and he seems to believe it. Kaye has also called me several times to ask what my decision was.

I don't want to hurt my brother and I don't want to hurt Nigel too, I don't know what to do because even if I turn the world upside down I know I will hurt someone with my decision.

I'm currently in a park with Bea, I can't think of any other way but this. It seems that my brother's ex is not in the right frame of mind and I don't know what else she can do.

"Why do you want to talk to me, Kiara? Is there a problem?" she asked me.

I don't know where to start but I have to do it. It's selfish but I don't want to lose Nigel from me.

"I want to talk to you because I have something to tell you, Bea. I'm thankful that you came into my brother's life and he became happy again. But I want to ask you a favor." I said.

She frowned looking at me. "What is it?"

"Stay away from him," I said seriously.

"W-what? What's going on Kiara? Did I do something wrong? Storm and I don't have a problem and even we're okay,"

"Yes Bea, there is no problem between the two of you or us, but there is with other people. As you can see, my brother is well-known in the business field and his life is also public. I know he will have many opportunities waiting for him if you're not in his life. It's not that I don't want you for him but right now I don't think it's good for you to stay by his side. You will bring destruction to him." I explained.

"I-I don't understand Kiara,"

"I think that when others find out about the relationship you have, they will say something to my brother and don't want that to happen. You know how important the company is to my brother because that's what Daddy left us and when that goes away, I'm sure Storm will be hurt a lot and I won't let that happen. If you continue your relationship with my brother, his and the company's reputation could be ruined." I said.

"But Kiara, I thought there was no problem? Is it because I don't come from a rich family?"

"It's not like that, Bea, I just want you to understand that my brother's life is different from yours, I'm just keeping him away from what could be an issue in the case. I know he'll protect you from everything even if it can ruin our family's name. I hope you understand what I am saying, as his sister, I'm begging you, Bea. I know my brother won't leave you, that's why I talked to you. I hope you'll forgive me. I didn't say that you don't suit him, but right now it's not the right time for both of you." I said weakly. "I know you love him and I am a witness to that. If you love him, you will let him go so that whatever he has will not be destroyed or lost. Alcantara has many rivals and I don't want them to find someone or things that can destroy him.

I can hear her crying so I don't look at her. I don't want to take back everything I said. I don't like it but I have no other choice. I stood up from my seat. "I'm sorry Bea, but I hope you understand what I said. I want the best for my brother and I can't allow him to be ruined because of other people. So please I'm the one begging you, just stay away from him.  I know I'm selfish for saying this thing to you but that's the only way I know to protect my brother," I said last thing before leaving her.

When I got into the car, the tears that I had been holding back started to flow, knowing that when my brother found out what I had done, he would be angry with me. I betrayed my brother.

Later my phone rang and I saw that it was Kaye calling, I clenched my fist because of this, I don't call her sister anymore after everything. How much she changed, she was blinded by too much love.

"Have you ever done what I said?" she asked me.

"I already talked to her and I know she will stay away from my brother. I hope you follow what we talked about." I said emphatically.

I heard her laugh. "You know me, Kiara, I can't harm you. All I want is to get that woman out of my way so I can get Storm back,"

"How sure are you that my brother will come back to you even if Bea is gone? If I were you, just stop your plan because nothing will happen, Storm will be mad with you when he finds out what you did." I said.

"She won't know if you don't tell him Kiara and know I you won't do that because the moment you betrayed me say goodbye to your fiance,"

"I've done what you want so stop pestering me and Nigel, it's not my fault if you can't get my brother back!" I said.

"Don't worry Kiara, you're still like a sister to me and I won't allow you to be harmed. You already did your part and that's all that matters to me."

I quickly threw my phone in the back of the car after we talked. I just hope he fulfills what we agreed on, I don't want to lose them both.
