Chapter 166: When It All Started

Sean saw Reese’s face turn red. She stiffened. Her hand was on the armrest. Her feet appeared to be preparing to flee. Thankfully, she changed her mind about avoiding this discussion. Reese cleared her throat and said, “Um. Well. It’s a long story.”

He raised a brow and suggested, “I love long stories.”

Reese chuckled and faintly replied, “God, I supposed this has to come out anyway.” She sucked in a deep breath before admitting, “Yes. I used to like you, but don’t worry. That was years ago, and I got over it. It won’t affect the way I work with you, being your therapist.”

“I’m not concerned about that,” Sean said.

“Why – why didn’t you tell me? And how come Brooklyn knew but not me?” Sean asked.

“Oh. You don’t tell your friend that you love them, Sean. There is always a risk of losing the friendship,” Reese suggested. “Besides, I didn’t tell her either. I guess she figured it out.”

“Wait, you loved me?” Sean asked, making Reese flush deeper.

The next few seconds were the most awkward. Sean struggled to react to her confession. One thing was clear. He didn’t hate it. In fact, it flattered him fully.

After falling silent, Reese ultimately said, “I -1 tried telling you. But at the same time, I did not have that confidence.”

Looking down, she admitted, “Yes, I fell in love with you. I started to have feelings for you the day you stayed with me at my father’s grave. Rain or shine, you were there to comfort me, and I wondered what if there were more than just friendship between us.”

“But my realization came too late because you were already taking an interest in Brooklyn,” Reese admitted. “You wonder why we did not get along? Well, it’s because she shoved the truth in my face.”
