Chapter 298 Undo My Mistakes! (2/2)
Zain drinks the wine in the glass in one go. ”Pour some more wine to my glass, sister dear, I want to celebrate tonight with you guys. This is a happy occasion indeed,” he said. ”Don't worry, Adam and I won't fight tonight because it's a special day that requires a celebration, a night to remember, am I right, sister?”
”Yes, you are right, brother!” Princess Abigail responded brightly.
Adam was silent the whole time.
Zain finished drinking his second glass of wine. ”Ah, sister, can you leave us for a minute? Adam and I have to discuss a few things...please?” he said.
Princess Abigail shifted on her feet, she was hesitating to obey her brother's request, she was afraid to leave her two brothers inside, they might go into fight or had an argument because of Jessy.
”Sister—?” Zain eyed his little sister urging her to leave the room.
Princess Abigail pouted. ”Can I just stay here while you two are talking?” she pouted.
”No. We will be discussing adult stuff, so you have to get out of the room,” Zain said calmly.
Adam sighed. ”It's okay, Abigail, you can leave now. Wait for me outside,” he said.
Princess Abigail looked at her two brothers. ”Fine, I will leave. But on one condition, no fighting okay?”
Zain smiled. ”I promise to you, there will be no fight between me and our brother tonight. I don't want to destroy the spirit of this happy occasion,” he insisted.
Princess Abigail was satisfied with Zain's assurance. ”Okay, I will leave now and wait outside of the room,” she finally caves in.
The princess exited the room.
When his little sister was finally gone, Zain addressed his brother. ”It seems you're not giving my previous offer any further thought, eh?”
Adam breathed deeply. ”Bro, I'm sorry I can't give you what you want. I can't transfer to you my power, but I am willing to stay here in your prison-like room as long as two years, if it's the only way to repair our fractured sibling relationship, I will do it.”
Zain inspected his younger brother's face. ”Staying here inside this room is not enough to pay your sin. But, don't worry I'm no longer interested in your power, you can have it for yourself as long as you want. I no longer crave your power, but what I'm asking you now is to stay in this room for two years and then give up Jessy. To make things fair, the moment you cut your relationship with her I will also set her free. Jessy will be free, she will not belong to anyone. She will no longer be your girlfriend and no longer be my wife. Then we can start repairing our broken sibling relationship. I'm willing to forget everything and start all over again. We just have to let go of the woman that destroyed our sibling relationship, that's all I'm asking from you. I think it's fair enough, right?” he said trying to gauge his brother's reaction to his suggestion.
Adam sighed heavily a few times. At some point in time, he was thinking that if only he can undo things, he would never betray his brother. And this is it! This is finally happening! The chance to undo his mistakes. He will always love Jessy, he will never find another woman to love all his life only her. But he has to set her free so that he and his brother can repair their relationship. He shut off his eyes feeling the pain, it already starts to squeeze his heart. As if his heart was refusing to accept what his mind already had decided.
Zain was watching the display of emotion on his younger brother's face. ”Don't worry brother, to make sure that I am serious with my intention of reconciliation with you, I will accompany you in this room for the next two years, we will stay together in this room, you and I will start repairing our sibling relationship together in this room and after two years we will set foot outside this room with our relationship restored in good shape. We have to let go of Jessy together because she is the cause of our misfortune. Loving one woman destroyed us, letting go of that woman will help heal the pain in our heart. What do you think, brother?”
