Susanna

White-hot pain exploded across the side of my head as glass shattered against my skull. The bottle, one of those thick green ones they served champagne in, burst apart like it had been made for this very moment. I screamed as the impact sent me sprawling sideways, a rain of jagged shards slicing into my scalp and cheek.

My hands shot up instinctively, but they were too slow. I hit the floor hard, my temple throbbing, blood already trickling down into my ear.I couldn’t see or think properly. There was just pain and stars and the coppery taste of blood in my mouth. My hearing went dull, replaced by a high-pitched ringing. I looked up through blurred vision and saw what remained of the bottle rolling away from me on the floor, blood smeared along the edge.

I let out a sound somewhere between a sob and a scream as the server came a step closer and stood above me. His eyes were cold and electric, and they m

  • Abandoned by Ex, Married to His CEO Brother   Chapter 275

    Abigail I stepped out of the car with my lips still curved in a smile. From the driver’s seat, Roxy leaned across the console and grinned up at me. “Thanks again for breakfast,” she said. “And are you sure you don’t want me to pay you back? I ate quite a lot. At least let me send you something.”I pointed at her with mock severity. “If you ask me that again, I’m never taking you out ever again. Don’t forget, you didn’t even want to come out. I practically dragged you.”She laughed. “True. And I’m glad you did. You look good these days, Abigail. Like… really good.” She tilted her head, studying me. “You’re smiling more, too.” Before I could brush it off, her eyes turned mischievous. “So,” she said slowly, “should I assume Alexander is… doing his job pretty well in the bedroom?”I burst out laughing, a noise that sounded almost hysterical as I closed the car door. “Roxy! You’re outrageous!”She just smiled, softer now and less teasing. “I’m happy for you.”Something warm spread through

    Conrad I stayed where I was, frozen like a deer in headlights. Abigail wasn't alone. Another woman came out of the café right behind her, her friend Roxy. The sight of her erased the last fragile hope that this was some trick of my mind. You don’t hallucinate details like that. They stood close, heads tilted toward each other as Roxy said something low. Abigail laughed. God, the sound of it cut right through me. It sounded so soft, so alive. It had been so long since she had laughed like that with me. Her pallor was gone, and now she looked healthy and radiant. Her skin glowed in the early light, her hair fell freely down her back. She looked… happy. And it made my chest ache in a way I didn’t have a name for. I knew I was staring. I knew I probably looked unhinged. But I couldn’t stop. My eyes followed every movement she made, how she brushed her hair behind her ear, how her smile spread across her face like it belonged there. I found myself taking in every detail.

    ConradI woke up with my head pounding. For a long second, I didn’t know where I was. The ceiling above me was familiar and yet not the one I usually woke up in. My eyes drifted, slow and heavy, until I saw the pale curtains, the soft morning light slipping through them. Oh, I was in Abigail’s room. My chest tightened as I remembered. I turned my head and looked toward the window. The sun was only just rising, low and weak in the sky. It must be early morning, much earlier than I was used to waking up.I forced myself to sit up. My body protested, every muscle stiff, my head spinning. I dragged a hand down my face and felt the dry, crusted tracks of tears on my cheek, reminding me of how I had collapsed onto her bed like a pathetic child who didn’t know where else to go.Disgust curled in my stomach. I scoffed at myself under my breath. “God, you're pathetic, Conrad.”I swung my legs off the bed and stalked out of her room, slamming the door harder than necessary behind me.I couldn’

    Abigail My arms folded, I watched Liam pack the little he owned into a new suitcase. His movements were slow and unhurried. He folded his clothes with too much care, smoothing out every crease like he was trying to draw out the time he had here, and make it last as long as possible. Still, the navy blue box at his feet was already half full. “Are you sure I shouldn’t come with you?” I asked again. I had asked it so many times it had started to sound like a prayer. “I can take you to the station. It’s not a problem.” He didn’t answer at first. He just kept folding. A shirt. A sweater. Then a pair of jeans. He was leaving for another city. Leaving to finally do what he should have done a long while ago if Conrad, Susanna and Marceline hadn't upended our lives so abruptly—resume his education and start university. His results had been released while he was in rehab, and he'd aced his papers. He should have left some weeks ago but he had refused to go until he confronted Marceline one

    Conrad The men were already waiting when I arrived home. They stood in a loose formation near the front drive, their hands folded and their shoulders squared as they spoke with each other. As I drove in, their eyes were solodly trained me as if they already power had changed hands before my car fully came to a stop. Bonafide...my mother’s men, now mine, or at least they had been mine for a few fragile hours. As my car rolled to a stop, they straightened almost in unison. “Boss,” several of them greeted as I stepped out. The word twisted in my gut..I lifted a hand in a vague, dismissive wave and walked past them without slowing. Their eyes followed me, awaiting orders, expecting instructions. Soon, they wouldn’t be waiting for me at all. Soon, they would be standing like this for Casillas. The thought made bile rise in my throat. I mounted the steps to my house and paused just long enough to point at two men. “Jackie. Hugo. You - inside. Now.” They obeyed immediately, falling

    ConradCasillas didn’t even flinch at my outburst. He didn’t raise his voice or even didn’t do anything as crude as mirror my anger. He patiently looked at me like I was a child having a tantrum.“Lower your voice,” he said calmly.I felt my glare harden, my jaw tightening as I fought the instinct to snap back. Every nerve in my body screamed to remind him who I was. Casillas leaned back in his chair, utterly unbothered, and continued as if my fury were nothing more than background noise.“The men of Bonafide are integral to this plan,” he said. “And let’s be clear...I’m not asking you, Conrad. I’m telling you.”I sat up straighter, my hands curling into fists at my sides. “You don’t have the authority to give me orders,” I said coldly. “If this is the nonsense you dragged me here for, I’m leaving.”For a fraction of a second, I thought I saw deadly something flicker in his eyes. Then he chuckled. There was no humor in it.“If you walk away,” Casillas said, crossing his legs with infu
