From My Ex's Betrayal To His Father's Bed Chapter 57
JULIA I froze for a fraction of a second under his gaze, my bag tightening against my shoulder. Marcus didn’t smile, not in the usual teasing way, but there was something in his stance, the tilt of his head, the way he watched me, that made my stomach coil with nerves. “You got my message,” he said, voice calm, measured, but there was an edge under it that made my pulse quicken. “Yes,” I managed, my throat dry. My voice sounded smaller than I wanted it to. He pushed off the car lightly, walking toward me with deliberate, slow steps. I took a step back, though my mind screamed at me not to. He had no reason to corner me here, in the open air. And yet, something about the way he moved, the confidence in his every motion, made it impossible not to be drawn in. “You looked… distracted in class,” he said, stopping a few feet from me. “Something happen?” I shook my head quickly, forcing a laugh that sounded brittle even to me. “No, nothing. Just… tired.” He tilted his head, scrutini

JULIAThe classroom felt smaller than usual today, like the walls were closing in on me. The hum of voices buzzed around me while my lab group debated ideas for the semester project. I tried to join in, but every time I spoke, someone talked over me or dismissed my suggestion like it didn’t exist.“I think we could try adjusting the chemical ratios instead of using the standard model,” I offered softly, holding the notebook a little too tightly.There was a pause, a glance exchanged between two of my group members, and then laughter.“No, that won’t work,” one said, flipping through her notes without another word.Another shook her head, “We’ve done that before. Let’s stick to the plan we agreed on last week.”I bit my lip and nodded, keeping my voice inside. My hands were cold, my heart sinking. I felt invisible, unimportant, like my opinion didn’t belong in this conversation.They continued discussing, bouncing ideas off each other, but no one asked me anything. My mouth opened a fe

JULIAThe Luchessi estate never looked smaller than when I walked through its front doors this afternoon. Everything was the same, the polished floors, the high ceilings, the quiet hum of servants moving just out of sight, but it all felt heavier somehow, weighed down with unspoken eyes and whispered words.I thought I’d be coming back alone, just Phoebe and me. My visit to Mother had been a short reprieve, a chance to breathe away from the constant scrutiny of this mansion. I hadn’t expected anyone else to accompany me, yet the sound of a car door closing nearby had me glancing over my shoulder.Marcus.I froze before even realizing it. The man’s presence was impossible to ignore. The same sharp jaw, the gelled black hair, the long sleeves folded up to reveal forearms that could crush a man if he wanted. And now, somehow, he was walking beside me, guiding me toward the front entrance with a careful hand at my elbow as though he were protecting me from the world.I didn’t ask. I could

TERRARumors travel fast in this mansion.Faster than footsteps.Faster than servants scattering when I walk past.Faster than Nero’s lies.They move like smoke slipping through cracks, curling under doors, and seeping into the ears of anyone foolish enough to listen.And today, they reached me.I was walking down the east corridor, heels clicking sharply against marble, when I heard it. Two maids whispering near the linen closet, their voices too breathless and excited to be talking about anything ordinary.“…Did you hear? Sir Marcus didn’t come home that night.”“Because he escorted Lady Julia, right? Alone.”“People said they stayed together until morning.”I did not remember moving.One moment I was ten steps away.The next, I was standing behind them.“Repeat that.”They froze.“L-Lady Terra, we didn’t mean—”“Repeat it,” I said quietly.My voice was soft and sharp at the same time, sugar wrapped around a blade.The maids exchanged a helpless look. The braver one swallowed.“It’s

MARCUSThe door slammed hard enough to rattle the frame.The boy always did have a dramatic exit.I didn’t look up immediately. I let the silence stretch across the room while I tapped the cigarette once, twice, letting the ember fall neatly into the tray. The air still vibrated faintly with Nero’s anger which was raw, confused, unrefined. He hadn’t learned to mask it yet. Terra’s influence, perhaps. Or Julia’s.Especially Julia’s.I leaned back in my chair again, rolling my shoulders as the tension slowly melted off. Nero barging into my office was nothing new. But the look in his eyes today… that was new.Fear.Jealousy.Possession.All emotions he had no right to feel anymore.And yet he felt them anyway.“Pathetic,” I muttered under my breath.Not because he was weak, well he wasn’t. Nero had the potential to crush men twice his age. But his emotions… that was the leash he still hadn’t cut off. And Julia was the chain.I pressed a hand to my forehead, rubbing the bridge of my nose

NEROI didn’t bother knocking.The heavy doors of Marcus’ office slammed against the wall as I shoved them open, my chest tight, heartbeat hammering like I’d sprinted through the entire mansion. He was at his desk, of course, leaning back in his chair like a king on a throne, one leg lazily crossed over the other, cigarette smoldering between his fingers.He didn’t even flinch.“Bold,” he remarked, voice calm, indifferent. “You must want something.”I stepped inside, fists clenched. “Where were you yesterday?”He lifted an eyebrow. “Morning or night?”“You know damn well what I’m asking.” My jaw locked. I hated how my voice sounded, strained, too sharp, too emotional.Marcus exhaled smoke, slow and steady, like this conversation was a mild inconvenience. “Clarify your question, Nero.”My teeth ground together. “Why were you with Julia?”There. I said it.His eyes flicked to me, unreadable for half a second, then he smirked. “Ah.”My blood boiled at that single sound.“I escort many pe
