After Sleeping with My Childhood Prince, I Kicked Him Out from My World novel Chapter 26

Chapter 26

1: Sister? Stepmother?

<<Avery >>

As I run on the treadmill, I feel the thrill of flying high. Sweat runs down my face to my cleavage. Big

boobs are such a nuisance when it comes to exercise and sweating. But still, I hope when I lose

weight, I get to keep my bust.

I am in love with them..

Ten more steps in the name of losing weight!

Nine… eight… seven… six… five… fuck… two more… one more and last…

I hit stop and try to catch my breath.

It’s been a grueling workout session today. I glance at the clock.

More than an hour.

Not bad.

A

I change and head toward home. Today’s workout was particularly important–I needed to clear my

head after everything that happened. As I exit the gym, my phone rings. It’s Dad.

“Avery, can you come home right away? There’s something important we need to discuss.”

His tone is serious, making me uneasy. “Is everything okay?”

“Just… come home, please.”

I arrive home twenty minutes later to find my mother standing in the living room, arms crossed, her face flushed with anger. My father looks tense, and beside him stands a woman I’ve never seen before with a teenage girl who seems about my age.

“What’s going on?” I ask, dropping my gym bag.

My father clears his throat. “Avery, I need to introduce you to someone. This is Joy… and her daughter Della.”

The woman–Joy–steps forward with a tight smile. “Hello, Avery.”

“Joy and I… we knew each other before I met your mother,” Dad continues, his voice strained.

My mother scoffs. “Knew each other? Why don’t you tell her the truth?”

I look between them, confusion giving way to a sinking feeling in my stomach.

“Della is my daughter,” my father says finally. “Joy and I were together years ago, before your

mother and I married.”

The room spins. I look at the girl–Della–who stares back at me with an unreadable expression. She has my father’s eyes.

“So… she’s my half–sister?” I manage to say.

“Yes,” Joy says. “I thought Della deserved to know her father. We’ve been trying to reconnect.”

‘Avery, I know this is a shock, but-”

‘How long have you known about her?” I demand.

“And you didn’t think to tell us?”
