Natasha’s POV.

The drive back home felt peaceful. The air was warm, the road quiet, and my thoughts lighter than they had been in weeks. My parents had been unusually kind during my stay, almost careful around me, and though their presence could be tiring, it was good to be somewhere that still held traces of my childhood.

I thought of Sylvester constantly, missing him in the small moments—the mornings without him, and the evenings without his teasing remarks. I was eager to return, to fall back into our rhythm.

But the moment I stepped through the front door, that calm disappeared. The house felt wrong. It wasn’t loud or chaotic, just cold, as if the air itself was holding its breath.

I stood there for a moment, trying to understand it. The faint scent of wine hung in the living room. The curtains were drawn too tightly, and even the light spilling through seemed dim.

Then Carol appeared from the hallway, smiling too quickly. Her expression was bright, her tone cheerful, her moveme

  • Marrying The Domineering Billionaire In My Sister’s Place   CHAPTER 248.

    Natasha’s POV.The morning light streamed faintly through the curtains, soft and pale, touching the corners of the room like a promise of calm after a storm. For the first time in days, the house felt quiet. It had been a long stretch of tension—of tears, explanations, and sleepless nights—but I could finally breathe again. Carol was gone. The house was peaceful. Sylvester and I had begun to talk again, not with ease yet, but with a shared understanding that we had both survived something heavy.I stood in front of the mirror, brushing my hair as I prepared to leave for my hospital checkup. My reflection looked tired but steadier. My hand drifted over my stomach, and a strange comfort settled in my chest. I told myself things would get better from here. That was what I wanted to believe.My phone began to ring, breaking the silence. The name that appeared on the screen made me freeze. Carol. For a long second, I couldn’t move. My first instinct was to decline the call, to throw the p

  • Marrying The Domineering Billionaire In My Sister’s Place   CHAPTER 247.

    Carol’s POV.The air outside the mansion felt heavy, as if the world itself wanted to remind me that I no longer belonged there. My feet carried me out of the gate before I could think. My chest was burning, my palms trembling, and every breath felt like a curse pressed against my throat. I could still see Natasha’s face in my mind, the way she looked at me as if I was something filthy. The humiliation was so deep that it made my vision blur.I stopped at the side of the road, my heart pounding too loudly in my ears. A taxi pulled over, and I climbed in, slamming the door with a strength that startled the driver. He asked for my destination, but I only gave him the first place that came to my mind because I was not yet prepared to go back home to face my parents. I wanted to scream, but the sound was caught somewhere in my chest. My hands were clenched so tightly that my nails dug into my skin.How could she still have everything? After everything I had done, everything I had risked,

  • Marrying The Domineering Billionaire In My Sister’s Place   CHAPTER 246.

    Carol’s POV.The silence in the room pressed against my chest like a weight I couldn’t lift. Natasha stood across from me, her eyes on the floor, her face pale but calm in that unbearable way of hers. Sylvester stood beside her, his arms folded, his expression closed off. I could see it all in his eyes—the disgust, the distance. It was over.All the control I had tried to hold on to slipped through me. I felt it leave, like air rushing out of a room. My voice came out before I even thought.“You think you’ve won, don’t you?” I said, my tone trembling, half anger and half pain. “You think because you have the house, the ring, and the baby that you’ve won something that wasn’t yours to begin with?”Natasha didn’t move. She only looked at me as though she was waiting for me to stop, as though she’d already decided I wasn’t worth arguing with. That look burned through me.“He was promised to me,” I said, my voice rising. “Everyone knows that. It was supposed to be me beside him, not you.

  • Marrying The Domineering Billionaire In My Sister’s Place   CHAPTER 245.

    Natasha’s POV.For a moment, I couldn’t move. The sound of Carol’s name still hung in the air, caught between my lips and the cold silence that followed. My hands trembled, my chest heavy, my heart refusing to believe what my eyes were seeing. I pinched myself asking why I was leaving when they were supposed to do so, so I rushed back upstairs, finding my way into the bedroom.I looked up at them. My voice came out low and uneven. “What is this? What is going on here?”Neither of them answered immediately. Sylvester froze where he stood, his eyes wide, guilt written across his face. Carol turned slowly, her expression shifting from shock to something unreadable—half fear, half challenge. The sight burned itself into me. My own sister, the person I trusted with everything, standing there with my husband as though she had every right to.“Natasha,” Sylvester finally said, his voice low and urgent. “It’s not what you think.”“Then tell me what it is,” I whispered. “Tell me why my sister

  • Marrying The Domineering Billionaire In My Sister’s Place   CHAPTER 244.

    Natasha’s POV.I had left the house that morning with a lighter heart than I’d had in days. The doctor’s appointment had gone smoothly, and for the first time in a while, I allowed myself to imagine that things might fall back into place. The baby was fine, and I could already picture Sylvester’s quiet smile when I told him everything was normal. After the visit, I stopped by the grocery store and picked up the few things I needed to make dinner. I wanted to cook something comforting, something that would bring warmth into our home again.The air outside was heavy, yet peaceful, and I remember thinking that maybe we could find our way through whatever storm had been brewing between us. But as I drove down the street, something pulled me back. It wasn’t a thought, just a sudden flash in my mind—the secure phone the doctor had asked me to bring next time for direct updates. I had left it charging by the bedside table. I sighed, shaking my head at my forgetfulness, and turned the car a

  • Marrying The Domineering Billionaire In My Sister’s Place   CHAPTER 243.

    Sylvester’s POV.I couldn’t take it anymore. Every night I went to bed pretending that silence was safety, and every morning I woke up feeling like I was drowning in secrets. The guilt of knowing what Clara had done, what she kept trying to do, had turned into something unbearable. Natasha deserved peace. She deserved the truth, even if it shattered her.I sat alone in the study that evening, the curtains drawn, the faint hum of the air conditioner the only sound in the room. My hands trembled slightly as I locked the door behind me and walked to my desk. For days, I had avoided looking at the recordings, convincing myself that ignorance was some kind of mercy. But tonight, that excuse no longer had power. I had to see. I had to end this.The laptop sat before me, silent and accusing. I took a deep breath and opened the encrypted folder. The camera feeds appeared, one by one, small squares of familiar rooms: the living room, the hallway near the library, and the quiet corner of the si
