Aria thought she had the perfect marriage. For three years, she’s been the devoted wife of Justin D’Cruz; her best friend, her first love, and a member of the powerful D’Cruz billionaire family. But her fairytale shatters when she discovers the truth: Justin has a mistress. Worse, he’s plotting to divorce her… and he never planned to give her the one thing she always wanted—a child. Shattered and betrayed, Aria’s world collapses. Until the most unexpected person steps in; Justin’s elder brother, Aaron. He’s everything Justin isn’t—protective, steady, and willing to fight for her. He offers her a shocking solution: divorce Justin and marry him instead. Aria is forced to make an impossible choice. Now, caught between the hatred of her ex-husband and the forbidden love of his brother, Aria must decide: will she let her broken heart destroy her, or risk everything for the man who wants to put her back together?

In His Brother’s Arms Chapter 5- Out of his arms, into another
Aria’s POVJustin blinked, thrown off by the finality in his brother’s tone. “What, you think you can just…”“I think,” Aaron said evenly, stepping slowly towards Justin, “you should stop talking before you say something you can’t take back.”For a moment, I thought Justin might explode. His jaw clenched, his fists flexed at his sides, but then he looked at me. Really looked. And in his eyes I saw fear. Not of losing me—but of losing control.His forced smile returned, sharp as glass. “Fine. Have your little show. But don’t come crawling back when you realize my brother isn’t the hero you think he is.”He turned on his heel and stormed out, the echo of his footsteps slamming through the silence he left behind.The room stilled again. My knees felt weak, the weight of everything pressing down on me all at once. I hugged my arm to my chest, the skin still burning where his fingers had dug in.Then Aaron’s voice broke the silence. His voice came out lower and softer this time. “Let me se

Aria’s POVI walked down the hallway, then the stairs to the main living room. I couldn't shake the feeling of betrayal and shame welling up in my chest. Aaron had kind of warned me several times about Justin. Helena didn't like the idea of getting married that early, especially not to Justin. She liked him as a friend only because he was my friend. Aside from that, she couldn't stand Justin or the thought of him. My parents, the Browns, will obviously see this as a disgrace and tarnish their image and the name they have taken forever in building. I didn't know if I was sure I'd want to make such a move. Do I really need to go on with this divorce? I mean… as much as this sounds stupid, I still love Justin. He's still my first love, my dream man. “Good morning Ma'am,” a familiar voice called out as I got to the last step of the stairs. “Hi, Cathy.” I smiled. “Sorry about yesterday night, I hope I didn't hurt you?” I asked as soon as I remembered that I ran into her last night.

Aria’s POVI opened the door and let him in, he turned on the light and sat by my side on the floor with our backs to the door. “What happened? Why are you crying?” He asked, concern in his voice. “I…” my voice broke, fresh tears began to drop from my eyes again. “I saw Justin's chat with Summer. He wants to divorce me. He's never loved me!” I burst into messy sobs, hiccupping like a fool. Aaron just sat there. I'm sure his mind was going; “but that's what I've been telling you all these years. Now see.” I can't blame him, I was too blind, too foolish, too stupid, too… in love to notice anything. Justin is a really great actor, because every time I noticed something off, he had the right words to cut through me. He knew me too well, he knew where to pierce me so that I won't notice. After what seemed like hours, the room was quiet except for my regular sniffling. His voice broke the silence. “You know, you're still a young lady. You have a great life ahead of you, Aria.” His vo

Aria’s POVJustin and I have been best friends for years, since high school, he was my first crush and only male friend. We were a group of three friends– Justin, Helena, and I– and they were, and still are my best buds. After high school, looking for colleges to get into, Justin told me how much he had loved me and couldn't do without me. He said he would not stand staying away from me in the name of schooling, so he asked me to marry him. I was nineteen, he was twenty. It wasn't a problem as both of us are coming from prestigious families. I chose a three-year program as we lived together, and then we got married when I was twenty-one, our wedding was the talk of the town for months. After the wedding, I moved into the D'Cruz family house and it's been awesome. His parents love me. Our wedding anniversary was two months ago making it three years and two months being married to my first love. Perfect life right? So why am I supposed to think he does not love me? The party ended

Aria’s POVMy head was starting to ache from the high ponytail on my head. It was D'Cruz’s, my father-in-law's, birthday today so I had to endure everything. I took a sip from the wine glass in my hand and continued watching the Swan Lake performance. He has been a steady lover of ballet performances so I arranged it as a surprise for him on his sixtieth birthday. He turned around, searching for me with his eyes, I smiled and waved, and he returned my smile immediately when he saw me. He was such a sweetheart. After the performance, I realized I hadn't seen my husband, Justin, for a while now. He literally missed the whole show. Is he busy with work at this important moment? Well, I have to stop him myself then. I stood up, lifting my dress so I could walk properly, my head was still bowed when I ran into someone. It was Aaron, my brother-in-law. “Sorry about that Aaron”, I said, adjusting the bangs almost entering my eyes. “I should be saying that, I wasn't watching where I was
