Claimed By My Ex’s Stepbrother Chapter 208 - The Interview
Tessa sat in the sleek conference room, her hands folded neatly in her lap.The space was modern — floor-to-ceiling windows, a long glass table, minimalist art on the walls. Everything about it screamed money and power—the kind of place where deals were made and careers were launched.She felt out of place.She adjusted her blazer for the third time. Straightened her hair. Crossed her legs. Uncrossed them.She was nervous.She had never done this before. Not really. She had been a waitress once, and that's how she met Grayson.Then she met Roman and didn't work a day in her life. She had been taken care of. Protected. Sheltered.And now…Now she was in this big office, wondering what awaited her.The door opened and a man stepped inside.Tessa's breath caught for a moment.He was tall. Broad-shouldered. His suit was charcoal grey, perfectly tailored, and his presence filled the room before he even spoke. Dark hair, cut short. A strong jaw. Eyes that were sharp and intelligent.He carr
Claimed By My Ex’s Stepbrother Chapter 207 - One Year Later
ONE YEAR LATERThe room was quiet. Peaceful. The kind of quiet that only existed in the early hours before the world woke up.Tessa stirred beneath the duvet, her face half-buried in the pillow. A soft groan escaped her lips as she twisted. She didn’t bother reaching for the other side of the bed. She knew it was empty.She had stopped reaching for the other side of the bed in the past year.She blinked her eyes open, squinting against the light. The clock on the nightstand read 7:32 AM.It was still early.She pulled the covers over her head, only for the sound of her voice to echo in the four-bedroom duplex."Tessa!"The voice came from somewhere downstairs. Familiar and Impatient.Daniel.She groaned and rolled onto her back. "What now?” She murmured."Tessa, wake up!" Daniel called out again. She pressed her palms against her eyes. "I'm awake," she shouted."You have an interview in one hour!"Tessa sat up abruptly. "What?"She swung her legs over the side of the bed and padded
Claimed By My Ex’s Stepbrother Chapter 206 - Yes, I’m Ready
The day was finally here. The day Roman had been waiting for the past week. When he finally leaves the city that left him first and caused him so much heartache.This seemed like the new normal now.Flights. Suitcases. Goodbyes.Only this time he didn’t have a large crowd to send him off.No Alec. Victor. Even Bernard couldn't make it. Eleanor was struggling to accept he wanted a divorce.So it was just him and his mother and things hadn’t improved much in forty-eight hours.Salima stood across from him, hands folded.“When are you going to stop being upset, Roman?” She asked.“I’m not upset.” He shook his head. “You haven’t spoken to me since Victor left.”Roman scoffed. “To be fair, I haven’t spoken to anyone.”Salima’s face dropped in disappointment.Roman noticed. He exhaled sharply.“I’m not doing this to punish you, Mom, but right now — I just don’t know how to feel.”“Then let me tell you how I feel.” “No!” Roman said sharply. “I understand that Dad’s return might have been

Roman sat alone in the study, staring at nothing.The house was quiet. Too quiet. Without Alec's presence, without Tessa’s charm, without the hum of conversation, the walls seemed to press in closer.He hadn't moved from the armchair since walking out of the living room. His mother's words still echoed in his head. Telling him it’s not that simple.But it was. A soft knock pulled him from his thoughts.Roman looked up.Victor stood in the doorway, his hands in his pockets, his expression unreadable."Can I come in?" Victor asked.Roman nodded.Victor stepped inside and closed the door behind him. He didn't sit. He stood by the window, looking out at the dark sky.“If you’re here to talk about what happened downstairs…” Roman said. “I want you to know I meant every word.”“Oh, I know.” Victor chuckled. "I know you're upset with your mother. But I don't want you to be."Roman's jaw tightened. "Why not?""Because it's not her fault. It's just a natural thing for her to feel conflicted."
Claimed By My Ex’s Stepbrother Chapter 204 - Farewell
It’s been one week since Roman lost Tessa at the airport. He didn’t know if she was halfway across the country or the continent, whichever it was, she wasn't by his side.And now…another goodbye waited for him.Roman stood quietly at the edge of the foyer as members of the house staff carried the last of Alec and Lakshmi’s suitcases toward the waiting SUV. The polished marble floors echoed with footsteps, soft conversations, and the occasional scrape of luggage wheels.Everyone had gathered to see them off.The atmosphere was warm—filled with smiles that tried very hard to hide the sadness beneath them.“Oh, Lakshmi,” Salima said, pulling the young woman into a warm embrace. “It was so good having you here.”Lakshmi smiled as she hugged her back.“Thank you for having me, Mrs Blackwood. You made me feel like family from the very first day.”“You are family,” Salima corrected gently. “Don’t ever think otherwise.”Lakshmi’s smile widened. “I won’t.”Salima stepped aside, turning toward
Claimed By My Ex’s Stepbrother Chapter 203 - I Lost Her
5 AMThe morning was pale and cold. Tessa stood in the doorway of her bedroom, watching as Daniel moved through the house with practised efficiency.Suitcases lined the hallway. Boxes were stacked by the front door. Everything they owned, packed into containers and labeled with a destination she hadn't chosen.Chicago.She still couldn't believe it."You ready?" Daniel asked, not looking up from his phone.Tessa didn't answer.He glanced at her. "Tessa?""I heard you." She snapped."Then answer the question." He fired back.She crossed her arms. “Sure.”Daniel's jaw tightened, but he didn't rise to the bait. "The car will be here in twenty minutes. Make sure you have everything. I’ll get Dad.”He walked past her toward the kitchen.Tessa stood there for a moment longer, then turned back into her room.The bed was bare. The walls were empty. The closet was a graveyard of hangers.She had packed light — one suitcase, one carry-on, one bag for things she couldn't bear to leave behind. A

Klara’s mother went still on the other end of the line.“What plan B?”Klara wiped her face with the back of her hand, forcing herself to breathe evenly. She needed to sound calm. Convincing. Like she wasn’t sitting on a concrete floor in a damn warehouse.“They’re both angry,” she said slowly. “No

The hospital waiting room smelled like antiseptic and burned coffee.Roman sat hunched forward on one of the chairs, elbows on his knees, hands dangling uselessly between them.His suit was ruined. Dark stains bloomed across his sleeves and lapels.He hadn’t changed. He hadn’t moved.The image woul

Roman sat opposite Tessa, his eyes red. His hands folded across his chest, he stared straight ahead but he wasn’t looking at her. His mind kept replaying the message.“She knew too much?” He scoffed.The door opened slightly. The nurse stepped in. “Mr Blackwood.” She said softly. But he didn’t re

“Is this supposed to be a joke?” Roman asked, flipping through the pages again. Silence fell across the room. No one said a word. Salima’s hand drifted to her throat. Grayson’s jaw tightened. Davin’s posture shifted—subtle, but ready. Roman’s voice came again, quieter this time, but it shook
