Five Lost Angels: My Husband's Fatal Deception novel Chapter 197

Aaron’s shut-your-mouth glare fell on Sienna as he shouted.

“How can you embarrass mom and dad in front of Bright’s parents? They will never forgive you, Sienna.”

His fury shushed us all, hanging heavy silence in the air. Bright was the one who backed her up in this critical situation.

“Feeling attraction towards anyone isn’t an insult to our parents, Aaron. It’s the truth of Sienna’s personality. Your mom and dad must be aware of it.

Keeping them in darkness won’t end up good.”

“It’s not …” Aaron tried to oppose this notion, but I didn’t let him scold Sienna anymore.

“You can talk to your parents at home before arranging a meeting with Bright’s family. In this way, they will have time to process the shock of Sienna’s statement.

What do you say?”

My proposal was praised by both of the parties. Sienna and Aaron started planning accordingly.

“Thanks a lot for your suggestion, Laura.

I will contact my dad’s secretary to inquire about his free time in his tough schedule.”

Then Bright offered generously. “You are more than welcome to visit my mansion with your parents. It will be better to have a private venue instead of meeting in a restaurant or hotel.”

…

Our agreement was the first step in our mission, the real deal was way more demanding. Bright and Sienna looked for a perfect opportunity to break this news to their families. As their beliefs contradicted the ideology of wealthy households, the fireworks were bound to happen.

Bright’s parents got really tricked off because of his straight refusal. His previous escape plan had hit them hard. Things were no better for Sienna too, her parents outright refused to accept her sexual orientation.

So, the following days were full of tension, making me jump with every notification on our cell phones. Bright was fed up with this melodrama.

“Our parents’ love doesn’t make any sense to me, Laura. They claim to choose the best for us. But never give us the freedom to make our decision.

Why can’t they trust us? Aren’t they satisfied with their upbringing?”

Groaning in frustration, Bright banged the coffee mug on the table. Our special time alone was occupied by the worries of engagement.

I placed my hand on Bright’s, pressing it gently to comfort him.

“This is also a form of parents’ love, Bright. As they have more experience in practical life, they didn’t wish us to suffer.

And it’s not that they can’t trust us, but the severe consequences of our stupid actions made them concerned.”

“I am glad that you think like that. But I loved this surprised look on your face when you saw me naked on our date …”

Blushing horribly, I melted under his intense gaze and bit my lower lip.

“It’s not my fault that you always exceed my expectations.”

Gulping a lump in my throat, I composed myself and tried to change the topic.

“It must be hard for you to adjust in my villa. That ordinary place isn’t up to your royal caliber.”

Bright put his hand on my back and tightened his hold, smiling warmly.

“You are my home, Laura. So, I feel happy whenever you are around, whether it’s a mansion, villa, or a hotel’s room.

And your villa is the place where I can relax without being burdened by my wealth and status. That’s better than anything else!”

With that, he leaned in for a kiss, fluttering my heart with his addicting warmth. I raised my head to reach him, responding enthusiastically. But just as our lips touched, a servant decided to ruin our moment.

He coughed for our attention and announced loudly.

“The honorable guests have arrived, master!”
