Unexpectedly Loved By The CEO - Chapter 90
I’m very sorry for having a replayed chapter because I do have a lot of school works these days and also I’m doing my research paper. I promise to update new chapters every day once I finished these.

Chapter 69: What Will It Be?
…
“W-What?” I asked, stuttering.
“Well, not that I wasn’t surprised. But is it true? Is Summer my… sister?” Suddenly, the expression on his face broke. He seemed sad when he remembered her missing sister.
What will I say?! I told Summer that the decision was up to her but this is me now, I just exposed the truth in no time.
“Kellen, I… I don’t…” I couldn’t finish what I was saying. I don’t know what to say and I’m full of nervousness now. I wanted to ask him why he’s not surprised but I can’t ask that until I answer his question. “I’m sorry.” Nothing else came out of my mouth but that.
He laughed bitterly. “Summer. She’s my sister,” he said softly as he rested both arms on his knees. He was silent and that was why I was so nervous. Is he mad at me?
“Kellen,” I called him but he doesn’t look back.
He suddenly stood up and walked up to the front of the glass wall. He stared at the view outside as he placed both hands in his pockets. I can see the expression on his face in the reflection of the glass wall. He seems to be thinking very deeply. I approached him and stopped right behind him.
“I can explain,” I told him.
He’s still not talking. I also can’t blame him for reacting like this to what I said. I expected it already. And I will accept all of the consequences of what I have done.
“Kellen, talk to me. Please.”
…
It has been three hours and he’s still not talking to me. I’m getting a little worried now. Is this it? Is this how our relationship goes down?
I didn’t realize that my tears were dripping. Maybe it’s also because of the fear I feel. I hope I’m wrong. I hope he doesn’t give up because of this. I hope.
I could not properly do the paper works that were assigned to me. He doesn’t come out of my mind until now. I looked at the time and I realized that it was Summer’s break time at this moment. I tried to call her and she answered after four or five rings.
“Summer. Can we talk?” I asked because maybe she was still doing something important even though it was already their break time.
“Of course. Is there a problem?” she immediately asked me. I think she’s in the canteen because I can still hear the trays landing on the table.
“I did something wrong,” I began.
“What is it?”
“I didn’t mean to tell him, Summer. But I did.” I don’t have time to wander around anymore. It was my fault because Summer hadn’t decided yet but here I am now, I failed to fix another problem.
“You told my brother?” she asked just to make sure that I’m talking about Kellen.
“Yes,” I answered her shortly.
“What did he say?” she asked curiously.
“He doesn’t talk to me. It has been hours,” I told her. “I’m sorry, Summer. I didn’t mean to.”
“Liv, don’t be sorry. It’s fine. Besides, I’ve been thinking about it lately. I also want to meet them. Is that okay with you?” he asked me.
“Of course, Summer. I told you last time that whatever your decision will be, I’ll support you,” I told her gently.
“Okay. I’ll try to think of how I should approach him,” she said.
We talked for a few more minutes before I turned off the call. I don’t want to consume her whole break time because she also needs to eat and rest.
When I stood up, I felt a headache. I suddenly felt weak and tired. Is it because I don’t get much sleep anymore? Because since the day Summer’s issue entered my mind, my sleep has not been normal. I always overthink because of what is happening now.
I was holding onto my desk when I almost fell over. Fortunately, I still have a little balance in myself so I didn’t fall completely. Suddenly, I heard the door of Kellen’s office open. My back was facing the door so I couldn’t see him come out.
“Liv, what’s happening?” he asked me anxiously.
“It’s nothing. I’m just a little dizzy,” I said. I grabbed my head because it still hurts. I also can’t stand properly because of that.
“Let’s get you to the hospital,” he said.
…
I am now sitting in the hospital bed. This doctor was also the one who took care of me when I fainted a few months ago. She reminded me quite strictly now because she said that this should not happen again. I may have a serious illness because I am neglecting myself again. He also gave me a prescription for medicines to help me with my insomnia.
“I’m sorry. I caused another trouble,” I said softly to Kellen who was now watching over me.
“I’ll take you to your apartment. You need to rest,” he said.
When we left the hospital, he did not talk to me in the car. Even though I’m asking him some random things about work, he doesn’t respond. Maybe he is really mad at me. But I’ll try to explain my side to the next days when he calms down. I don’t want the two of us to be like this for a long time.
A few minutes passed and we are here now in my apartment. He told me that he’ll open the door so I didn’t go down right away. He was worried I might fall so he opened the door for me and he could help me get up.
“Rest for the rest of the day and tomorrow. I won’t let you work anymore especially since I know you’re not feeling well. Please take care of yourself, Liv. You know I don’t like it when you’re not well. Don’t you hide when you feel something bad because your sickness might get worse and I don’t think I’ll be able to forgive myself when something worse than this happens to you,” he told me.
I just nodded and promised to take care of myself. I also don’t want to be like this for a long time because I might miss a lot of work that I need to do. My mental health is really affecting my physical health.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to be like this again,” I apologized to him. He didn’t say a word after I said that. “All right, I’ll go inside. I promise I’ll rest and take my medicine.”
I gave him a small but sad smile because I knew he was mad at me. I turned around to go inside but he suddenly grabbed my left arm so I immediately looked at him. He looks so worried and it looks like he’s sad at this moment.
“Kellen,” I called him. “Why? Are you okay?” I asked gently.
“No, I’m not. I’m not going to be okay now that I know that’s how you are right now,” he told me. “I’m sorry if I’m failing on taking care of you, Liv. I’m always the one who gives you so much to stress about.”
“Kellen,” I mention his name before touching his cheek. “You don’t have to say that. I understand if that’s your reaction to what I’ve said earlier. And if you need an explanation, I’ll give it to you if you’ll give me a chance to,” I explained to him.
“I’m sorry if I act like this. Even though I noticed before that Summer looks like my missing sister, I couldn’t help but be surprised. I just didn’t expect her to be very close to me,” he explained to make things clear because of how he acted.
“I’m not going to stop you from meeting Summer, Kellen,” I said in turn because I knew that’s what he was worried about.
“I know you won’t. But Liv, I need to tell my parents. I need to,” he told me.
