He Chose My Sister, So I Married His Enemy Chapter 291: He Kept Saying It Was Fine
"That's what you supported," I said, still curled against him, careful with the words. "Not what you actually felt.""They're the same thing.""They're not."He was quiet a moment, and I watched him search for the distinction, something careful and defensive rising before he'd fully found it. "I understood why I had to cancel the restaurant. The way I understood why you had to stay for the pilot fix. I don't want either of us put on trial for choices that were genuinely necessary.""I'm not putting you on trial. I'm asking what you felt. Those aren't the same question."He exhaled slowly, something in his shoulders dropping. "I missed you at the restaurant. I know I'm the one who had to cancel it, but I still spent half that night thinking about the table we never got to, the dessert you chose, the whole evening sitting unused somewhere it should have happened.""You never said that. You just kept apologizing.""Apologizing felt safer." He paused. "Then there was the studio. I'd plann

Damien set the phone aside, screen still glowing with the photograph between us, and neither of us reached to turn it off. "I don't know how to finish this argument," he admitted."Neither do I.""I could delete it. As a gesture.""Don't delete it." I said it faster than I meant to, and he raised an eyebrow, something almost amused cutting through the tension. "I told you I wanted a copy too.""You're very inconsistent for a woman who just accused me of loving a lie.""I never said it was a lie. I said it wasn't the whole truth. There's a difference, even if I explained it badly.""You explained it like a woman who'd been awake since six," he said, and I shoved his shoulder, though the corner of my mouth was already betraying me, the sharpest edge of the argument easing slightly without actually resolving.We got up eventually, hungry enough to abandon the unfinished conversation for breakfast, and I pulled on his discarded shirt from the night before while he found something in the k

I woke tangled against him, his arm heavy across my waist, and when I shifted he pulled me closer without fully waking, murmuring something incoherent into my hair that made me laugh quietly against his shoulder. "You're awake," he said eventually, eyes still closed."Barely.""Stay anyway." He tightened his arm, and I let him keep me there, warm and unhurried, no reason either of us needed to move yet."You snored last night.""I did not.""You did. Extensively. I considered recording it as evidence.""That's slander," he said, finally opening one eye, and I kissed the corner of his mouth before he could properly defend himself, the whole morning easy and lazy in a way neither of us was in any hurry to interrupt.His phone buzzed eventually, and he reached for it reluctantly, scrolling through something before his expression shifted into genuine pleasure. "The reception photos are in." He stayed propped against the headboard, phone held between us, and found the one almost immediatel

"I know," I said again, and leaned into him, letting the words settle properly this time instead of just floating there between us. He kissed my forehead, something easing visibly in his shoulders, and I let that relief become mine too, at least for the night.We finished getting ready for bed together, the easy choreography of it returning naturally, him stealing the warmer side of the blanket before I could claim it, me retaliating by taking more than my share of pillows. "This is aggressive redistribution," he said, watching me arrange three pillows exactly where I wanted them."This is justice.""You said that about the dish towel incident too. Everything is justice with you.""Everything is justice when I'm the one deciding," I said, and he laughed, pulling me against him anyway despite the pillow theft, and I settled into the warmth of him, the joke from the reception still sitting somewhere underneath everything, unnamed and unresolved, though I didn't reach for it again that n
He Chose My Sister, So I Married His Enemy Chapter 287: That Joke Wasn’t Funny
"Apparently I need an appointment to see my own wife," Damien said, easy and dry, already smiling. "She sent me a calendar invitation for dinner. An actual meeting request, title and everything."The couple laughed, delighted, the husband clapping Damien lightly on the shoulder, and I laughed too, small and automatic, the correct social response arriving before I'd fully registered what had just happened. Underneath it, something tightened, quick and unexpected, the sentence replaying itself before I could push it away. He'd made it sound like I'd scheduled an appointment with him, assigned him a slot, as though the most vulnerable thing I'd offered him in weeks had become nothing more than administrative proof of how impossible our lives had gotten.Someone asked Damien a follow-up question about his own schedule, and he answered easily, then turned and caught my hand again, pulling me slightly forward into the conversation. "Olivia's actually the one who makes it work," he said, som
He Chose My Sister, So I Married His Enemy Chapter 286: Everyone Thought We Made it Look Easy
The week had passed in ordinary rhythm since the sketchbook evening, dinner together most nights, affection intact in every small gesture, no new cancellations to carry forward. I still thought of the terrible portrait occasionally, propped now on Damien's desk where he'd insisted on framing it despite every protest, and the memory of it made me smile while I finished dressing for the reception.Damien appeared in the bedroom doorway already in his jacket, and stopped completely when he saw me, something visibly derailed crossing his expression. "You're staring.""I'm recalibrating.""That's not an answer.""I had an entire sentence prepared about the car and the timing, and it's gone. Entirely gone." He crossed the room slowly, hands finding my waist, and I let him look, enjoying it openly."Say the sentence anyway.""I don't remember it," he admitted, and kissed my shoulder instead, unhurried despite the clock, and I had to be the one to finally pull back and remind him we actually
