Dear Ex-husband, My Stepbrother is Your Replacement. 200 — THE HARSHEST CRITIC…
ASTRIDMy heart is literally in my mouth as Marilyn leads us to a canopied booth built beneath a huge elm tree.The place is already teeming with people, each holding clear foil cups half-filled with red liquid. Judging from their disgruntled expressions, the wine definitely tastes like shit. Marilyn successfully grabs Evan’s attention and ushers him towards the cameras for a brief interview. He’s a handsome man probably in his late fifties. His perfectly slicked back hair is still jet black. Judging from his winking Rolex and the shiny Tom Fords at his feet, Evan Davis is not the average millionaire.Which is probably why Marilyn is almost swooning.He’s armed with a glass of wine, his lips curled in an expression that screams “distaste.”“Ladies and gentlemen, I am very excited to introduce Evan Davis, a Master Sommelier and the most feared wine critic in New York City!”She turns to him;“So, Mr. Evan, I’m sure you’ve tasted Château Claire’s Spirits and Roses collection. We’d be
Dear Ex-husband, My Stepbrother is Your Replacement. 199 — EVAN DAVIS
ASTRIDA dull pain blooms in my chest as I take off my shoes and crawl into his lap, promptly burying my face in the crook of his neck.Silvan’s fingers are in my hair in an instant, massaging my scalp with long, smooth strokes. My eyes roll to the back of my head. It takes a lot of self restraint to stop myself from purring.“Oh, that feels so good.”“It does?” His voice is a deep, soft husk in my ear. His lips touch my skin and I shiver, already craving more.“Yes, it does.” “Kiss me.” Don’t mind if I do.I detach myself from his neck and lock my lips to his. The kiss is a wet, sloppy, electrifying tangle of tongues. By the time we take a break to breathe, my sex is already tingling with arousal and I can feel Silvan’s hot rod stirring to life.Looping my arms around his neck, I pepper his face and neck with kisses. He just sits there and takes it, keeping both arms firmly clasped around my waist at all times. “Did you miss me, baby?” He whispers.“I did. I missed you so, so muc
Dear Ex-husband, My Stepbrother is Your Replacement. 198 — I MISS MY HUSBAND…
ASTRIDClaire probably thought I was playing around when I said she would go bankrupt. Barely twenty four hours after I left her gasping and trembling with rage at Oriental Hotel, I instructed Thea to leak the news of her deteriorating vineyards to high end broadcast stations and social media blogs. Just as I expected, the news spread like wild fire. It roused conflicting responses, of course. While some people sympathized with her, others claimed it was her karma for trying to compete with me. They have no idea that Karma has little to do with this. Claire’s downfall is a result of raw, meticulous planning, and we’re just getting started. “How far have we gone with the next phase, Michael?”I’m seated in my new office, going through some old files while Michael reads from his clipboard. These days, I have no idea if he works with me or for Silvan. Michael rarely ever leaves my side. He’s always around the corner, making sure I’ve got everything I need when Silvan is not there.
Dear Ex-husband, My Stepbrother is Your Replacement. 197 — FAKE SYMPATHY…
ASTRIDA gorgeous brunette stands beside her. Judging from the narrow-eyed once over she slides my way, I’m assuming she’s just as snobbish and stuck-up as her dear friend, Claire. But then again, Claire’s taste in friends is just as predictable as it is pretentious.Speaking of my adoptive sister, she does look quite… haggard.I mean, she’s dressed to the nines as always in a pink Gucci suit and glossy six inch black heels. Hell, her hair is even all perfect and shiny. But there’s no denying the exhaustion on her face. Or the fact that she’s lost a worrisome amount of weight. I let out a dramatic gasp.“Are those dark circles? Girl, why aren’t you taking care of yourself? Beneath all those designer clothes, you really look like shit. Excuse my language, of course. You know I mean well.”She opens her mouth to speak but I’m not done. For all the days she treated me like a pile of cow dung, it is my turn to get a semblance of revenge.“You’ve lost so much weight as well! My, my,
Dear Ex-husband, My Stepbrother is Your Replacement. 196 — A TEST OF HER OWN MEDICINE…
ASTRID“I knew it!” Zeya exclaims. “I knew that dick sucking, pig-faced bitch had something to do with this. I fucking knew it!”We’ve had two SOS meetings in the past two weeks, but this one is different. This time, we know who the enemies are. This time, we’re ready for revenge.Everyone is here tonight — Aunt Elena, Thea, Zeya, Michael, Gemini and Hayley. The full squad. Silvan and I just told them everything we discovered in the past 24 hours. From the tight looks on all our faces, it’s quite evident that playtime is over. “Thea, what’s the status concerning the scandal?” I ask, unable to sit still.My PA glances at her iPad, pushing tortoise shell glasses up the bridge of her nose. “Well, forty percent of the rumours have died down. However, a certain group of people are still trending the hashtag “canceltheMachiavelli’s” across all social media platforms.”Silvan and I exchange glances. Diane and Claire’s minions are obviously behind this.“So far, we’ve spent eight hundred
Dear Ex-husband, My Stepbrother is Your Replacement. 195 — IT WAS HER IDEA…
ASTRIDThe stiffness in Kael’s shoulders is a clear indication that he despises his sister as much as we do. Maybe even more.“Diane is the oldest triplet. Dorothy was the youngest. My sisters are the perfect definition of greedy opportunists. They do not care who they hurt or swindle, so long as they get what they want.Both our parents died when we were barely five so we had a tough time growing up. But that doesn’t excuse their horrible actions in any way.”His gaze is apologetic as he glances at Silvan, “It was already too late when I found out about her marriage to your father.” He scoffs, “I mean, my own sister did not even bother to tell me she was getting married. No surprises there. I always stood against everything they supported. My point is, if I had known earlier, I would have tried my best to stop her before things got messy. For what it's worth, from the depths of my heart, I am sorry.”I wait with bated breath for Silvan’s response. I can tell that he’s shocked, com
