My Dad's Bestfriend
Chapter 41
Chapter 41 To Confront Or Not
Evelyn
Indeed, I had let my mom into the room, but I had no idea what the hell I was supposed to say. This wasn't meant to happen, not so soon. God, not anytime soon. But that annoying bitch had to ruin it, of course. Why wouldn't she? It was as clear as day-her image, as perfect as it might appear on the surface, was twice as hideous within.
A simple agenda-If I can't have him, no one else can. Screw that bitch.
I was gonna kill her.
"Would you care to explain, Evelyn?" Mom asked.
"I'm not sure what kind of explanation you're fishing for. Based on your earlier statement, it seems like you've already pieced it together yourself, right?"
A look of disbelief mixed with anger flashed across her face, "Incredible. Look at you— You are not even trying to deny it."
"Why should I? I haven't committed a crime that requires denial. I love him. That's all the explanation I believe you need," I stated firmly, loud and clear for her ears, "Tell me, dear responsible mother, is that sufficient for you?" My words oozed with sarcasm as I walked back to my vanity, fumbling with things in frustration.
"Are you completely out of your mind, Evelyn?" As expected, she followed me, "He's your dad's friend, much, much older than you, and completely unsuitable for you," her voice grew louder, "What the hell do you even know about him that you're claiming to love him? Do you have any inkling about his past, his family, his background, his character?!"
So maybe I was not loud enough, or maybe, her ears had stopped working. Either way around, I wanted her nose out of my business.
"Mom, I know all that I need to know, and I certainly don't think it'll end up good for me if I seek relationship advice, especially from you. Like, come on, you destroyed your own marriage, so you're in no position to lecture me about choosing a guy; for God's sake, you walked out on someone like Dad," I faced her, my hands balling up in fists as I tried not to say things that I might end up regretting later.

I'm saying this for your own good. Your dad, you know him-he won't take this lightly. He loves you more than life itself, and he trusts Jacob more than he trusts himself. He'll be shattered, and everything you hold dear will crumble. Forbidden relationships bring nothing but chaos," Mom snapped, her words sharp, "Tell me, is that what you want? Do you really
