My Daughter is a Vampire-Chapter 86 Rejecting Lena
It was the middle of the night. The lights in the hall were turned on. Three people were sitting on couches. Two of them were sitting in front of each other while another one was sitting at the side.
Between them, there was a small table. The situation in this hall seemed tense since the three of them weren’t speaking to each other at all until the girl on the side finally spoke.
“I won’t accept her.”
Charlotte had anger brewing in her eyes. She pointed her finger at Lena and shouted at Brian.
Hearing her words, Lena’s eyebrows rose. She didn’t speak but instead kept staring at Charlotte. Brian sighed and spoke “Alright! I have a fiancee who said I can’t marry you.”
He was referring to Lena who also noticed the helplessness in his tone and spoke “Is there something wrong with me? I know it is hard for you to share your husband but his destiny has stored something else for me. I am a part of his destiny.”
“If you have any problem or grudge against me, tell me. But, Destiny won’t accept your unreasonable rejection.”
Hearing her words, Charlotte visibly burst out in anger and shouted “Shut the f*ck, b*t*h! I don’t know who you are or where did you come from but if you think you can get my husband based on your lies, then you are wrong.”
She turned her head at Brian and shouted “And, how could you let someone like her become your spirit? You are the smartest man in the world. How can you believe in the abstract concept like destiny?”
Brian shook his head and said “Wifey, I know you are angry and you deserve to be angry when your husband comes home with another girl but you can’t blame me for not believing in destiny. Because I am the smartest man, I know more about Destiny than even her.” ƒ𝘳ee𝔀e𝚋n૦𝐯el.c𝗼𝓂
“Destiny is a concept of cause and effect. Your destiny is forged by the cause and the effects will lead you to your destiny. This is how destiny works. We can change our destiny but we can’t change the cause and effect…”-?(0)???.
“Alright! Alright! Stop lecturing me about destiny. Anyway, I won’t accept her no matter what you say. If you still want her then, I will leave this house.” Charlotte shouted at him and her tone seemed totally firm.
But, this got him confused. Why was Charlotte insisting on not having her? After all, when it comes to Lucy, she didn’t reject it at all. In fact, she rejected her own chance to reject Lucy.
He took a deep breath and stood up. He held her hands and made her sit down. He sat on the floor as he looked into her eyes and asked “I know this is very personal and I will accept every decision you make.”
“But, you should also know that she is my spirit now. She is going to stay with me, at least for now. So, tell me, what’s bothering you? You didn’t reject Lucy but you are so against her. I just want to know.”
Hearing his words, Charlotte hesitated before she finally said “Because I am jealous of her. I am not jealous of Lucy because I know she has to earn your respect and love if she wants to be with you but what about her?”
“She hasn’t done anything. She just arrived in front of you, kissed you, and told you that she is going to be your wife. I know you don’t love her and you are just considering her to be someone who will eventually be your lover or leave you.”
At this moment, she clenched her fists, and almost broke his hand as she continued.
“But, what has she done to be your wife? What has she ever accomplished? I have been in love with you for more than eight years. I kept chasing after you even though I couldn’t tell my feelings to you.”
“I was there with you when you needed someone. I am here for you as your fiancee and future wife. I took a job while being in college just so that I can cook food for you.”
“I worked hard in college so that I can make conversation with you. I tried everything just to be with you. And now, someone wants to have all that benefit without even doing anything for you?” ?(O)???
“How can I accept it? I earned your love and a place to stay with you. What did she accomplish? She just came and try to take the place that only belonged to me. How can I give it to someone else?”
Hearing her words, Brian got silent. He understood what Charlotte truly meant. She did everything just to be with him. So, how can she accept anyone who hasn’t done anything?
Wife, second wife, the status is almost the same. It’s wives at the end. So, how can she accept someone who hasn’t done even a bit that she has done to get that status?
It wasn’t a battle of the throne but for her, she has fought very hard, to get this place.
Hearing her words, Lena didn’t know what to say. When she chose Brian as her host, she simply made up her mind because of his amazing destiny. She thought if she becomes his wife, she would be able to involve in that destiny.
As for love? It was a concept that she never understood and she hoped that by being with him, she will understand what love truly is.
Although she hasn’t been with him, just hearing Charlotte’s words made her understand what love truly meant.
For Charlotte, it was acceptance. She just wanted to be accepted by him. She wanted to be accepted in his heart. She wanted to be accepted in his home.
And for that, she paid a huge price. That’s why she got every right to be jealous of her.
At this moment, Lena spoke “Then, what if I can do everything for him? What if I can earn your acceptance? What if you accept me as his second wife?”
Charlotte looked at her and asked “Can you though? You don’t even understand what marriage and love mean to us. You are just forced by destiny. Can you do everything for him? Can you prove to me that all of my efforts weren’t wasted?”
Lena nodded her head without any hesitation and said “Yes, I can. I have come too far. I have left behind everything just to get here. Yes, I did become his spirit because of his destiny but even for that, I have given up too much.” f𝚛e𝗲𝔀e𝚋𝑛o𝘃𝒆𝗹.c𝗼𝒎
“There is no place for me to leave. The spirits abandoned by the host can’t remain as the spirits. I might not be one who helped him in his worst condition.”
“I might not be the one who chased for his love for eight years. But, I can prove that I will do everything for him. I can prove it by my own strength. I don’t have the strength like you but I have the strength that you don’t.”
“You are jealous of me because you think I can be of as same status as you without even doing anything for him. But, I want to ask you something. What if I can make you give that status to me?”
“Do you think you can do that? I am not a woman who will share her husband with just anyone.” Charlotte stared at her and asked.
“Yes, I can.” Lena nodded her head and sat down.
At this moment, Brian finally stood up and spoke.
“I know I am not getting a chance to speak here but I just want to say something. I am the one who you want to be with. I love Charlotte. I don’t love Lena.”
“But, she is my spirit and she will stay with me. So, how about we take out time? We can’t chase Lena out. And, my wife won’t accept her as well. So, we will take our time, live peacefully and slowly build our relationship.”
“I already have a wife and the second one is already pending. So, we will discuss Lena’s situation later. For now, she will stay here as a guest and my spirit.”
“She is strong and she can help us in her ways. So, I think we should do it like this.”
Then, he looked at Charlotte and asked “So, what do you think?”
……..
Inside the UMA’s technical department,
The light in the main computer room was on. Inside that room, a young man was typing at the keyboard while standing in front of a giant server. He was none other than Barry.
He was typing so fast and the codes on the screen were hard to understand until he pressed one key and a window popped up on the screen.
[Are you sure you want to delete the ‘DragonRider97’ account from the main server permanently?]
[Yes] [No]
He moved the cursor to yes and clicked it.
?(O)??? [DragonRider97 account has been deleted permanently]
Zzzzz!
Suddenly, Barry felt shocked all over his body and lost consciousness. He fell to the ground and after a while, a small-sized bug came out of his ear and flew away.
Pat!
But, after flying a few meters, it suddenly exploded on its own and got obliterated into atoms, scattering everywhere.
…….
Next Day,
“Huh! The door of the main server room is still open? Only Barry has the access to this door. Did he come here and forget to lock it?” The head of the technical department walked inside the room.
But, his eyes widened when he saw Barry lying on the ground unconscious.
“Barry!”
