Irresistible Love novel Chapter 25

Juliette Pov

It was the day.

The day when I was supposed to meet my family back and let them know that I was alive. Zachary told me that he had called his family and they had no idea about me being alive. As I had called it upon myself I had to deal with them my own and make them understand the purpose of me being dead, and this is what Zachary wants me to do. My sweaty palms shivered out of anxiety as I thought of the ways to deal with our family.

It would’ve been great if I had actually died in that accident because it is just of no use of me being alive for my mother and father would definitely kill me after they find the truth. l sigh escaped my mouth as I walked to the balcony to get some fresh air. Zachary has been out to the airport to receive the family members leaving Kiara with me and guards guarding the front.

Talking about Alex, strangely it’s been three days since he contacted me. In our last conversation he told me that he had to fly urgently for a meeting and he would come back after two days, but strangely he didn’t contact me ever since.

I wonder what’s he up to?

“Hey, eat up your food!” I heard Kiara’s voice from the kitchen.

As I walked to the table I found the food’s aroma getting into me as I felt hungry all of a sudden. The chicken and tomato pasta that she made looked mouth watering as I took a fork and took a bite savouring its deliciousness almost immediately forgetting about all the problems that surrounded me.

“This is amazing,” I said as I moaned and she laughed from the kitchen.

“What a cooking skill!” I remarked as I enjoyed the food while she brought her a plate and started eating it sitting beside to me.

“You know this recipe has some ingredients missing, yet I thought it would still taste good if I made it without them,” she told me as she took a mouthful of her food and circled her fork in the air thinking about something.

“That reminds me, where did you get the chicken? I remember we didn’t have any in the fridge,” I said as I remembered wanting to eat a chicken dish last night but couldn’t because we didn’t have it and Zachary was away and the guards didn’t let me go out to the walmart nearby all by my own.

“I asked one of the guards to bring it for me,” she said and I nodded concentrating on my food.

“I want to have some wine as well,” I said out my thoughts and Kiara scrunched up her nose giving me a pointed glare.

“Don’t even think about having alcohol for the rest eight months. It’s not good for your baby and your Romeo would be very upset,” she said and the name ‘Romeo’ that she used to address Zachary made me raise an eyebrow at her.

“Romeo? Seriously?” I questioned to which she just gave a toothy grin and shrugged her shoulders. I huffed at her and was just about to drink water from the glass when all of a sudden my eyelids drooped and the world around me seemed to rotate. A groan escaped my mouth as my vision blurred and I held my head wanting to stop it.

“Juliette?” I could hear Kiara’s worried voice.
