Bed Of Lies; A Billionaire’s Sinful Desires 162
Maeve “Doctor Alex?” I called out his name even though I was sure. My sister has had three major surgeries so far and the man did two of those surgeries including the latest one she had. I have known him for about years now. I met him four years ago when my sister was referred from the first hospital, where she had her first surgery since it was a specialist hospital. “Eve?” I smiled. At least he called my name this time. He used to call me Ms. Fitzgerald. “You two know each other?” Theo asked walking further and coming to stand near me. “Yes, I know him. He is my sister’s surgeon.” I let out. The one who told us right after my sister had her first surgery that she would need another. The one who told us everything that we were missing about her condition. He didn’t sugarcoat anything and told us what my sister’s chances were. “That’s crazy!” Charles let out and I could only nod. It was beyond crazy. I knew him for four whole years. He is someone that I am v

Maeve “I get what you mean but that jerk still needs to suffer for what he did to you!” I laughed at Theo’s words and laughed even more when Andro showed up with a frustrated expression. I could still hear the others going at each other so I knew why he looked frustrated. “Your brothers are a handful!” Andro declared as he sat next to me. I moved closer and hugged him. “Are they? Did they even notice that you left?” I doubt they noticed. “They didn’t notice. They are selecting from the collection and I showed them to the underground winery if they want a more varied selection.” He told me and leaned closer until we were snuggling on the couch. “Did you really give them a pass to Nonno’s collection?” Theo asked and Andro shrugged his shoulders. “Nonno is old! I doubt he even remembers most of his collections that have been with him for decades! Better to start letting people have a taste.” Andro responded. Just like that, the guys started talking about different

Maeve“Right, you are a grown woman, but we will still be needing all the details about that ex.”I shrugged my shoulders at Charles’s words.“Sure, but just know he is not really important.”I added.“Cool.”He responded. We walked in silence back to the car park.Andro and I took the scooter back while my brothers rode in one of the cars that was at the car park.“Are you okay?”I asked Andro when we arrived back at the house. He smiled and fixed my hair, which got messed up by the wind.“I am okay.”He assured me.“My brothers were being hard on you. I can’t believe they are already so protective of me. I am in trouble, aren’t I?”I asked, and he laughed heartily.“No, you are definitely not in trouble. They are kind of scary, especially the ex-seals, but they are just looking out for you, and from what I saw back there, you liked it.”I couldn’t deny it, so I just smiled.“You like having older brothers, don’t you?”I nodded at his words.“I have always been the oldest, and lookin

Maeve “Oh, we will certainly be meeting the extended family.” James assured me. Even though I had only just met them for the first time, I felt like I had known them all my life which was weird given that I didn’t even know they existed until days ago. “Guys, can we move the party to the main house? The weather is nice now but it can turn back at any moment from now.” Andro said and I watched as my brothers turned their attention to him and almost laughed when his expression changed. “Alessandro, I hear you are dating my baby sister.”I knew from the moment Thomas spoke that things were about to change but I didn’t realize how much until my newly found brothers formed a freaking circle around my man.“Yeah, she is my—““Your what?”James asked in a voice that could have made everyone shake in fear. Not Andro though. He didn’t look a bit scared—okay, that’s what I thought until he looked in my direction and I realized that he might be a tiny bit nervous. Oh shit. Time to de

Maeve “What are you doing, Charles? You are making her cry!” I almost laughed through my tears when my other brother spoke and slightly pushed Charles away so he could stand in front of me. “Hi, baby girl.” It was the first time he called me that but it felt like I had heard it before. The memory was there from a long time ago. “James.” I don’t know how I figured out that it was him but I just knew. His face lit up and that told me I got his name right. “You remember me!” He let out delightfully and I really didn’t want to steal his joy. “As much as I want to say yes to that, I can’t! I don’t really remember you from my past. I just got a feeling it was you when you called me baby girl. You used to call me that?” I asked him. He didn’t answer immediately. He looked away but not before I saw the tear drop from his eyes. All my brothers are crybabies. Even my supposedly strong older brother. “See! Even you can hold back tears. Get out of my way!” Thomas anno

Maeve “I don’t even know if I am ready to face my mom.” It’s not that I don’t want to meet her, it’s just that I don’t know how I would be able to face the woman I spent more than half of my life silently hating and cursing. Not to mention that she thought me dead. It already hurts so much thinking of meeting my brothers as an adult woman. What would it be like meeting the one who first loved me? The one who first knew of my existence before anyone else? “Why? Are you scared that she might not accept you?” Andro asked me. I shook my head. “I am not scared of that. I just—she thought I was dead for years. How is she going to take the fact that all these years I was alive and in the same country but they never managed to find me?” I let out. How did they not even find me? The orphanage didn’t even change my name. My mom told me that I came into the orphanage wearing a tag with my name on it. It was such a pretty name that even after I got adopted, they decided to

Maeve“I can’t believe you sold the house and didn’t bother to give me my cut!” I yelled at him. “I haven’t sold the house. The house isn’t for sale!” I blinked at him. “What? You didn’t put the house up for sell like I told you?” I yelled at him. I couldn’t believe him. He didn’t sign or subm

Maeve“You have changed a lot. How can you be so sure? I made one mistake, Eve. One mistake and you decided to let go of everything we had. Everything we shared!” I scoffed at his words.To him, it was a small one mistake but to me? It’s huge and I refuse to be gaslighted about how I reacted to hi

Maeve“I am glad you called me even though it’s late. I like it. You have been a good girl.” Before, that simple sentence would have had some kind of effect on me, and I would have been blushing and covered my face shyly.Now, it sounded corny and annoyed me, but I let it slide.“About the deal.”

Maeve “Eve.” The first thing I felt when I heard the person on the phone was disappointment that it wasn’t who I thought it was on the phone. The second thing I felt was fear. The fact that I felt the fear secondly made me feel guilty because I knew the only reason my brother was calling me wa
