Kyros kept calling me from various phone numbers, seemingly desperate to speak with me. His repeated attempts only intensified my frustration and annoyance.
As if that wasn’t enough, Stella messaged me too. She had grown bolder—shameless, even.
Stella: “Gazelle, I’m sorry for making you like a fool. But let’s be honest—if Kyros truly loved you, he wouldn’t have pursued a relationship with me. He remained by my side even as your wedding day approached. That proves he’s willing to do anything for me.”
I arched an eyebrow at her message, unimpressed. I wasn’t about to waste my energy on her, but curiosity got the better of me. I checked her secret social media account, wondering what kind of mess they were in now.
Sure enough, they were in Ravenshire, a city now under strict quarantine due to a sudden pandemic outbrea

Beyond Betrayal: Marry His Brother CHAPTER 112: Desperate
Kyros “I can’t take this anymore, Kyros!” Elle’s voice trembled with barely contained fury. “I’m not accepting another job from those people!” I could feel the anger bubbling just under the surface of her voice, ready to explode. I ran my fingers through my hair, trying to find the right words—but what else was there to say? I’d already told her everything I could. Everything that made sense, at least. I looked at the woman who’s been by my side for five years. No, even longer. She’s been with me since she was seventeen. And I knew that look in her eyes. The questions were still there, unspoken but loud. And me? I kept dodging them with story after story, piling on lie after lie, to keep things from falling apart. But all of this—everything—was because I wanted to be with her. Why couldn’t she understand that my actions were all motivated by my need to be with her? Before I could open my mouth, she continued, “I don’t understand how you can stomach what those people are doing! An
Beyond Betrayal: Marry His Brother CHAPTER 111: Heavy
I was never a patient of Gazelle’s mother, which made finding my name in her files deeply puzzling. When I opened the folder, its contents left me stunned—letters, dozens of them, all from my mother. Why did Gazelle have them? Why hadn’t Dr. Sinclair, Gazelle’s mother, ever given them to me? Or... perhaps she had tried? I immediately called Dr. Castillo, who had worked alongside Dr. Sinclair during that difficult period of my life. When I explained my discovery, he sounded equally surprised that Gazelle possessed the letters. “Dr. Sinclair did give them to you, Max,” he said gently, referring to my mother-in-law. “But because what you went through was so traumatic, and you were so young at the time, she chose to hold onto them until you were ready to handle it. You were just a kid back then, Max.” I exhaled slowly, trying to process it all. “Why didn’t you tell me any of this, Uncle?” “I didn’t think you were ready either,” he said gently. “You couldn’t even bring yourself to
Beyond Betrayal: Marry His Brother CHAPTER 110: Unseen
Dante must’ve had a reason for sharing his suspicions with me. I glanced his way, curiosity sparking in my chest. “What do you mean by that? Wasn’t it your assistant here at the hospital who told you Kyros had died?” I asked, disbelief creeping into my voice. “Yes. Dr. Smith from Gazelle’s department also gave her the same information on the day Kyros was brought to the hospital. But the thing is...” He hesitated, his brows furrowed in confusion, before continuing. “When Tessa Matthews brought your brother in, Kyros had severe bruises on his face. The emergency team couldn’t even recognize him—they were too focused on saving his life. Tessa Matthews explained that they had been in an accident, then notified the staff and confirmed his identity as Kyros…” I went quiet, thinking hard. This wasn’t something I could simply dismiss. “My stepmother would’ve noticed if that person wasn’t Kyros. Did you check the hospital records?” “I did. The blood type and some of Kyros’ physical des
Beyond Betrayal: Marry His Brother CHAPTER 109: Guilt
Completely hopeless—paralyzed, I’m unable to do anything to find the woman so desperately needed. Twenty-four hours had passed since Gazelle’s disappearance. There were moments when it felt like the darkness itself was trying to consume me. My mother haunted me like a ghost, never leaving, always hovering at the edge of my thoughts. Her voice shifted tones, accusing me of becoming just like my father. Countless times, I found myself blind to everything except the melody of my mother’s lullaby playing in my mind. But every time she tried to drag me into her twisted world, I would see Gazelle’s face, along with our unborn child. I needed to clear my head. I had to be ready, just in case Gazelle came back. I wanted to give her everything she deserves. I want to hold her. I want to be there when our baby is born. But I left my wife when she needed me the most, and that only made the guilt heavier. Blaming myself was the only thing that made sense. I could’ve handled everything so
Beyond Betrayal: Marry His Brother CHAPTER 108: Mess
Maximus Pain… That was the first thing I registered when I opened my eyes. The stark white ceiling slowly came into focus. Then a sharp, throbbing ache radiated through my legs. Ivan was lying next to me, eyes shut, his chest rising and falling with shallow breaths. A machine beeped steadily somewhere nearby, tracking every little sign that we were still hanging on. Damn it! The memory came rushing back—clear and brutal. Ivan and I had just made it out of the warehouse seconds before it exploded. I remembered the deafening roar, the heat, and then the pain as a chunk of concrete slammed into my leg. Both legs ached, but the left one felt like it had been hit by a truck. A thick bandage—possibly a cast—was wrapped around it, while the other had only a thin strip of gauze. Then I remembered Emma. She had been dragging Gazelle toward the other exit. The scene faded into chaos; thick smoke and falling debris swallowed that part of the warehouse. Did they make it out? The question gn
Beyond Betrayal: Marry His Brother CHAPTER 107: Plunge
Lucas and his team jolted at the sound of several explosions echoing from the upper part of the hill. His instincts screamed at him to run toward the chaos, to help his friends. But Maximus had given him strict orders: watch for any vehicles trying to escape. Victor was too calculating not to have an escape plan. They had already sealed off the roads heading both north and south. But then Emma’s vehicle came into view, and that’s when the woman made a terrible mistake. He and his team were caught completely unprepared. “Damn it! Fuck!” Lucas roared, fists clenched as he watched the vehicle plunge over the cliff and disappear into the churning water. In those terrifying seconds before it turned, he caught a clear glimpse of the passengers—Emma and Gazelle—both struggling as the car tumbled down the steep slope. Motorcycles and a four-wheeled vehicle screeched to a stop on the road, their riders jumping off and staring at the chaos before them. “What happened to Maximus and Ivan?
Beyond Betrayal: Marry His Brother CHAPTER 106: Fragments
That moment, watching the explosion destroy everything we had left behind all I could think about was escaping Emma’s abduction. I just needed to get away. Tears streamed down my face as panic took over. If anything happened to Maximus, I wouldn’t survive it. I wanted to scream. I needed answers. I needed to understand why this was happening. Before I could even think straight, a car and motorcycle appeared behind us—most likely Ivan’s men. Gunfire erupted, bullets flying as Emma swerved like crazy, trying to avoid getting hit. The motorcycle was gaining fast, almost on top of us. I was terrified—terrified for my life, for my baby, for everything! The narrow mountain road twisted along the cliffs, with nothing but sharp rocks and the deep blue sea below. It was the kind of road where one wrong move meant game over. Our car sped down that death trap while my head spun with questions I couldn’t push away. My hands were tied, but I managed to wiggle my feet toward the steering whee
Beyond Betrayal: Marry His Brother CHAPTER 105: Rescue
Emma performed a meticulous body search on Maximus while Victor kept his gun pressed against my temple. When she discovered a knife tucked in Maximus’s pocket, she extracted it carefully and tossed it far beyond his reach. The metallic clatter echoed in the tense silence. “Clear!” she announced, roughly shoving Maximus forward. “I knew you’d come,” Victor said with a twisted grin. Emma smirked. “He loves his wife so much, he’d kill for her. Does Dr. Sinclair know?” Tears welled up in my eyes. I never imagined Maximus cared for me like that. Lately, he’d been distant, his words colder than ever. But now it all made sense—he had come here alone, risking everything, just to save me. “Leave my wife alone!” Maximus roared, his eyes sharp and deadly. Victor gave a wicked smile before purposely brushing his lips against my cheek. A wave of disgust hit me like ice water. Even with chains around my legs, I thrashed as hard as I could, just trying to get away from him. My mouth, sealed w
Beyond Betrayal: Marry His Brother CHAPTER 104: Vengeance
This isn't real. It can't be real. That's what I kept telling myself as waves of anger surged through my chest. I had thought Kyros’ greatest betrayal was the infidelity—the way he cheated while pretending to be my hero. That was all I believed he had done. The trust between us had already fallen apart when I found out the truth from Maximus—when I learned it was he and his friends who rescued me on the island, from Victor’s abduction. Hearing that Kyros was the one who gave Victor the abduction idea didn’t even shock me anymore. It should’ve felt like a bombshell, but instead, it just confirmed what I was slowly starting to accept about the man I’d trusted for seven years. ‘So, that was it!’ The reason Maximus got nothing out of Kyros during the interrogation at the mansion, then their grandfather stepped in, accusing Max and his friends of bullying Kyros and defended him as if he were some helpless victim, not someone who was actually knee-deep in everything. His interference
