Chapter 228 - Charles And Jennifer(2)

"Something which even I can\'t define…" Jennifer answered honestly while keeping her chin high. Neither was she afraid, nor ashamed to say it aloud.

"Do you mean that there are emotions involved which need to be settled down?" Charles asked with his raised eyebrows, to which he got a nod from her side. Just observing the expressions of hers was enough to determine what was true and what wasn\'t.

And to him, it was clear that whatever she is saying is all correct. Her body reacted in the same manner, which shows her confirmed personality, "You know he is getting married to Emily?"

"I heard everything last night. Everything I did… was something that gave me a little setback but I believe, something right will surely happen soon."

Jennifer\'s every word made Charles wonder how can be so calm in this situation, just when yesterday she was almost on the verge of dying?

Coughing a little bit, he asked ahead, "I guess. You shouldn\'t delay it anymore and tell Javier what you feel about him. He should also have an idea about your side of feelings..." Just for her sake, he advised but Jennifer had a faint smile which she maintained throughout the conversation. "I already did in the morning."

That was something which shocking to Charles, taking his eyes down and curved in a suspicious manner. \'If she already did then.. what could have Javier said?\'

Did he say I love you too? Charles\'s eagerness to learn about whatever happened in the morning grew more but he knew that showing the same excitement in front of Jennifer\'s would ruin Javier\'s plans too.

Instead of asking, Charles e asked with his dull tone, "So, what was his reaction? shocked? Or calm?"

"Nothing. Indeed he was shocked but not to that extent, he covered it up. When he could have reacted by saying, his phone rang and he immediately said that it was important and he will be back in the night."

"Hmm. Something must have happened otherwise he wouldn\'t have left in such a? hurry. I met him in the morning too, to see his face and he looked horrified by some kind of news.." Jennifer totally agreed with his words. The same expression of his was noted by her in their room.

But Charles had more to say regarding the marriage and this engagement. It made no sense to him and Jennifer could see the same from the mist-filled eyes of Charles too.

"Well… Jennifer, Javier is my brother. We know each other more but it\'s just that we don\'t talk much..\'\' Hearing this, Jennifer was puzzled.

In which direction was the conversation going now? She really looked forward to knowing about it when Charles continued to say, "Initially Javier wasn\'t how he is but he later on changed with the period."

"He closed his heart and everything but somehow he moved away from us to study so that he can open up with some of his friends, which he did. To be very honest, everything is messed up, so are the complications and relationships in our family."

Charles spoke, too irritated to say and somewhat guilty too. Not like he is responsible for the same but the elder\'s affairs have impacted them as well. Yet, he maintained the smile and curved his lips upwards.

"Since our mother died and that lady stepped inside, we both children have developed quite a hatred for our father and this new mistress of the house. You might have analyzed this after staying for a few days now.."

Curiously nodding her head, Jennifer had a positive reply, "I saw it numerous times. Javier is simply.. carrying too much hatred for his father and stepmother."

"True that. Also, that is obvious since we both children are always close to our mother. Seeing someone else step inside our house and taking our mom\'s sole position is almost indigestible. Because of the same, our dad is one of our enemies, to begin with."

At this point, Jennifer doesn\'t even know who to react to. Should she sympathize with them? Or simply laugh? It was too hard to guess yet she felt that Charles was hesitant to say what he actually wanted to.

To give him the proper required comfort, Jennifer spoke in a much softer tone, "I guess brother you can say what you wish to. No Need to feel shy, after all, that must be something concerning me too."

As if she understood him well, if Charles has something to share, it must be related to either her or Javier. Otherwise, he won\'t put forward his own family affairs.

Lifting his eyes, Charles stared straight into Jennifer\'s eyes as a curve on his lips, making him a little suspicious but he still spoke, "Whatever I\'m saying is… because surely Javier is marrying Emily because of any reason, not out of love or else for the family."

"He won\'t care about this family name, even a bit which snatched his mother. Probably, I don\'t know that but Father had talked and discussed with him and yesterday\'s episode was the result of it.."

Since she is living under the same roof and is aware of their equation too, it wasn\'t hard to guess. Javier, agreeing to marry Emily? Especially when he\'s having Jennifer by his inside… almost made no sense to him.

Until and unless their father is someone who is putting his key to something of utmost importance to him.

At this stage, Jennifer can\'t help but stand thunder shocked from head to toe. The words and scenes of last night played in her mind like a reel when she found it almost impossible too.

"So.. Javier is doing everything for something?" She once again asked to confirm to which Charles simply agreed, "Yes! Javier and Mr. Shawn are two people of different poles. They can\'t work on the same route until the old man has something major to offer."

"What can be that thing? What can Mr. Shawn offer to Javier that he is willing to marry Emily, whom he hates so much?"
