Forced to Sleep with My Stepbrother

I snapped out of my memories. My mother looked delighted. She was like a proud hen that had won a chicken fight."It wasn't easy to convince you to come home. Why would I let you escape so easily? You'll be the daughter-in-law of the Wagners from now on. Give me a grandchild and take care of me like a mother-in-law."This was ridiculous.I already had a husband. Even if I did not have one, there was no way I could be with my stepbrother, Boris.The mention of Boris reminded me of my mother's wedding night with my stepfather, Titus Wagner. I had been sleeping in my room then. At night, a man slipped into my bed while no one was paying attention.Feeling the figure of about 200 pounds press down on me, I woke up right away and struggled underneath his heavy body.His smelly, sweaty hand covered my mouth while his other hand groped me beneath the covers as he tried to take off my clothes.It was too dark to tell who the man was. I cried in a panic, begging him to let me go.I to

Despite praying numerous times in my heart, the date when my menstruation would end was nearing. Moreover, my mother was keeping an even tighter track of the dates than I was.After seven days, I was finally permitted to eat at the dinner table.My mother kept busy in the kitchen while Titus and Boris smoked in their seats. My mother ordered me to get some alcohol from the storeroom and serve the men.A thought popped into my mind while I was looking at the bottles of alcohol. I hurriedly told my mother that I was suffering from diarrhea and went back to my room to get some toilet paper.Before my mother followed me into the room, I quickly grabbed a few pills from the luggage. I clenched them in my hand and ran into the toilet.The toilet was outdoors. After pretending to have diarrhea, I walked out of the toilet and headed straight to the storeroom.I bent over with my head lowered and pretended to pick a few bottles of alcohol, but I was really stuffing pills into them.As I

As the top brass who had established a business empire, Gideon Corporation, James Gideon was a very intelligent man. He immediately understood what I had gone through by observing everyone's expressions and the minimal dialogue between all of us.He pulled me into his arms dearly. Even though another man had almost slept with me, it did not affect his feelings for me. Instead, it seemed like James only cared more about how I felt.When the townspeople heard the commotion, they crowded to where we were. They watched in astonishment as they witnessed James lovingly taking care of me.While everyone watched nervously, James asked me in a booming voice, "Raven, you can decide if you want Moontown relocated. I'll do anything you want."When he said this, my tears fell again while in his embrace. James was showing me support even if it would cost him great profit. He was giving me respect and power.When everyone heard that the decision was now up to me, they started speaking up before

I gave a long sigh of relief when I got home. I felt lucky to have agreed to James' suggestion of arranging bodyguards for me.He wanted bodyguards and assistants to follow me back to my hometown previously. However, I had not decided if I wanted to tell my mother about his real identity then, so I rejected his offer.Now that I thought about it, James had been right all along for suggesting it. I was the one who had made the wrong choice.As I did not need to rely on the café for my livelihood, I decided to hide out at home until I was sure my mother, Boris, and Titus had left the city.Little did I know that they would cause trouble for me when I did nothing to them.When I next heard of my mother's news, it was from a link my friend shared.Before I could click on the link, my friend called me. She sounded anxious."Look at this, Raven. Is that your mother? How could she slander you and your husband like that? How can a mother be that way?"She hung up quickly after that, as

After clearing my name, I smiled sadly as I pressed my hand to my heart.I had just ended a call with the police. I made a police report about how my mother tried to kidnap me, give me to a man, and slander my reputation.Believe it or not, I no longer cared about our mother-daughter relationship. I called the police to arrest my mother.As I had concrete evidence and had the help of a capable team of lawyers from Gideon Corporation, my mother did not stand a chance. She was locked up in prison until her trial.Titus and Boris were also arrested as her accomplices.As I had taken action quickly by responding to the slander and clearing my name, Gideon Corporation's shares went up the next day. There were even signs of their shares surpassing their previous price.James' assistant wanted to call him and tell him about everything that had happened, but I stopped the assistant.I shook my head. "He can't be distracted from his business negotiations in Euronia. Everything here has b
