Marrying The Wrong Brother 150
~ Narrator's Voice~ Rebecca ransacked through her daughter's things yet again in search of it.Where could it possibly have been?Roman had practically threatened her to find it or else. She didn't need know what 'else' meant.All she knew was that she had to find the flash drive Ethan had smartly hidden with their daughter.Her heart raced at the thought of it going missing when Chloe was being hauled back and forth during the custody battle. What if someone knew what it was and had taken it?What if it had been destroyed?Wouldn't that be a good thing to Roman?The wheels in her head spun till her temples began to ache. She sat on the floor beside Chloe's bed, staring at the mess she'd made. She had checked the drawers twice already, searched beneath the mattress and even gone through the little boxes of toys Chloe hardly touched anymore.Nothing.Ethan had been clever.Too clever, perhaps.He had known that if he kept the flash drive somewhere obvious, someone would eventually f
Marrying The Wrong Brother 149 ~ Sloane
For several weeks, my relationship with Chloe had been somewhat strained. She got along well with Zane as always and of course her mother. But ever since Rebecca showed up, I'd find myself sidelined.Yes it began with me avoiding them because I didn't know how to feel about their bond. Then her mother made a conscious effort to keep her away from me and I had to respect the boundary. It didn't help that my job had kept me super busy and on top of that, I was now pregnant.The new beginning of our relationship I had looked forward to after Zane's proposal had taken a very different turn. And in between all of that, we were trying to merge our companies as fast as possible. It was overwhelming.I placed my palm on my belly and laid down for the first time since I woke up that day.The exhaustion I felt was inexplicable. The nausea didn't going anywhere despite all the medication and natural remedies. Maya often insisted I took breaks even when that was the last thing I wanted to

I should have known what I signed up for when I decided to keep this pregnancy.Now Zane wouldn't leave my side for a second even when I had repeatedly told him I was fine. It was cute but equally annoying."Are you seriously thinking of following me to the office?""Yes.""You can't be serious." I grunted, rolling my eyes in annoyance, trying to arrange my stuff in my work handbag. "Maybe this is a good time for the merger."I paused and turned to him, my eyes widening slightly."Now?""Yes." He nodded."Are you...?" I held myself back from using the insult that was just on the tip of my tongue.I heaved a breath before looking at him again. "No.""Why not?""You're trying to use this pregnancy as an excuse to sideline me. This is why I didn't want to keep it in the first place.""No, no babe. You're getting it all wrong. I just don't want to you to stress.""With all the financial chaos going on in your company. A merger isn't looking good for me.""I have it all under control I
Marrying The Wrong Brother 147 ~ Zane
The last couple of days had me drifting through different emotions. From the shock of finding out Sloane was pregnant, to anger when I saw she was adamant about getting rid of it. And then there was the exhaustion and resignation I felt when I decided to follow her to the clinic and find out it was possibly a high risk pregnancy so she would have to get rid of it anyway.I saw the conflict of emotions in her eyes. Hearing the heartbeat of the child we had made had messed with her just as it did with me.It was so many feelings at once. And it was difficult to describe which one was predominant. It was even more difficult for her to decide what to do next. Taking her home after the doctor's appointment, the drive back was as silent as a graveyard but for the sound of the engine every time it revved.I wished I could get into her head and know exactly what she was thinking about. Maybe she wished she could get into mine too. Getting home, there was an obvious elephant in the room w

At first, all I saw were shades of black and grey that made absolutely no sense.I frowned.The technician moved the probe slightly."There." She said. I looked at the screen and my breathing stopped.There was something there.It was small, tiny even. But it was unmistakably there.I stared at it closely. "That's the baby?" I whispered.The technician smiled. "Yes."I didn't know what I was expecting to feel.Fear, definitely.Maybe anger.But instead, something strange happened inside me.I felt my chest tighten just as my heart rate went faster. My eyes remained fixed on the screen.I could see the little shape more clearly now.It wasn't just an idea anymore.It wasn't just a problem I had been waiting to get rid of.It was real. It was my baby.I swallowed, feeling Zane's fingers tightened around mine.I didn't look at him. I was too much of a coward to do so. The technician adjusted something on the screen."And that's the heartbeat."A rapid, rhythmic sound filled the room.

Despite Zane dissuading me from going to work the next day because I was sick all night. I refused.We had barely thrashed out our issues. Him doting on me was annoying to me.I was pregnant, not an invalid. And it was only for really short period of time. I knew that in about a week from then, it would all be in the past. So I went to work, fighting the dizzy spells and nausea however I knew how to with natural remedies. I sniffed peppermint as much as possible. It helped a bit but I was still struggling. Zane kept calling me every now and then. At some point I had to yell at him that I was fine and he should stop calling me.The next thing that followed were a bunch of texts that I chose to ignore, turning off notifications from his messages.Few hours later he sent lunch. I didn't have an appetite so I left it. I was low-key wishing I could starve myself into a miscarriage. But since that wasn't happening I was looking forward to my appointment the next day. Maya was walkin

"You can't just move me into your house without asking."Zane didn't even glance at me as the car pulled up to the gates. The estate sprawled beyond them like something out of a fever dream. It had sharp angles, floor-to-ceiling glass. And it was perched on a cliff that overlooked the city like it
Marrying The Wrong Brother 4 ~ Zane
We are getting married tomorrow.Two days. That was all it had taken from the signed contract to the scheduled wedding. I had expected Sloane Reed to take the full three days, maybe longer. Instead she had called Patrick from the café, confirmed the date before she even stood up from the table, and
Marrying The Wrong Brother 3 ~ Sloane
He walked in and every head in the café turned. I had already been seated for ten minutes, black coffee in front of me that I hadn't touched, the file on the table within reach. I had chosen the corner table deliberately. Away from the windows, away from anyone who might recognize either of us and
Marrying The Wrong Brother 2 ~ Sloane
I woke up to my head pounding like someone was taking a hammer to it from the inside.My phone on the nightstand was lit up and buzzing in a way that communicated something had gone very wrong overnight, which I already knew, but seeing thirty seven missed calls from my secretary at eight in the mo
