Marrying The Wrong Brother 156
~Third Person POV~ Rebecca sat quietly across from Roman, watching him pour himself another drink.She had been staring at the same spot on the table for the last few minutes, trying to figure out how to approach the conversation without giving away more than she needed to.Roman eventually glanced at her."You've been very quiet.""I've been thinking." She mumbled in response. "That's usually when you come to me with a problem."Rebecca looked up at him. "I have one."He took a sip of his drink and waited for her to speak. "If I'm going to keep doing this, I need Sloane out of the picture."Roman's expression changed slightly. "Out of the picture?""You know what I mean.""I want to hear you say it."Rebecca exhaled slowly. "I want her out of Zane's life."Roman studied her for a moment before leaning back in his chair."I thought you were too soft to go after a pregnant woman."She fought the urge to roll her eyes. This murderer just enjoyed killing people. "I'm not talking abou

As someone who was typically calm in the face of triggers and unruly experiences, even I was shocked when I threw that book in Rebecca's face.We all stood there, too stunned to speak until I heard her breathing heavily. Her face turned red as she fumed as the lunged at me. Thankfully, Zane jumped in and held her back."I swear to God, if it wasn't that you're pregnant, I would bash your face so badly!"I watched, fighting back a fulfilled smile as Zane dragged her out of his office. He came back in and looked at me wordlessly. He was obviously disappointed in my actions. But despite how many times he expressed it, for some reason, I wouldn't budge. I walked out of there realizing that the conversation that brought me there in the first place would not be had until all the tension dissipated. The next few days passed without either of us bringing up what happened in Zane's office.I knew he was still upset with me. I could see it in the way he watched me whenever Rebecca was aro

"Now you can sit back and let me handle the day to day."Once again she rolled her eyes as I spun her around gently while we swayed to the slow music blaring from the speakers."I'm not going to be a liability, Zane.""Of course not. You'll always be an asset." "Of course." She grinned back. My smile dimmed when I saw my uncle observing us from a corner with a neutral expression on his face.I tried to read him and it was a futile attempt. "Is there something wrong?" Sloane asked when she noticed my countenance."It's nothing." I said, choosing to ignore him instead.I looked around the hall once again and found out that Cole was nowhere to be found. I spotted him briefly when we came in but after the pregnancy announcement, he had disappeared.I wanted to drill into his head how he needed to step up, especially now that the company had expanded. But yet again he was MIA. Asher lurked around, looking subdued for some reason. Sometimes I wondered what my uncle had on him that made

~Few months later~Days turned into weeks and then into months.The merger had been successful despite the challenges thrown its way.We were finally going to host and even to celebrate the joining of Della-Ross Holdings' and Reed Industries.It was a good day. We also agreed to announce the pregnancy.Things had been looking up so far health-wise. And it seemed like I was finally in the clear.I walked down the stairs clad in a dark blue ankle length A-shaped dress that matched his suit. I didn't have much of a bump but to a person with a watchful eye, it was obvious that I was pregnant. Entering the second trimester made the pregnancy a little easier. The morning sickness and spontaneous bleeding had come to an abrupt halt, relieving me in more ways than I could express."You look so pretty!"I smiled warmly at Chloe as she complimented me."Thank you baby." I said. Rebecca had her face set in a frown as I hugged her daughter. There was still tension between us from months ago.
Marrying The Wrong Brother 152 ~ Sloane
Being in the hospital for the last couple of days was infuriating. All I wanted to do was be at my office, rocking some of the custom made outfits I just had delivered to my doorstep a week earlier.But here I was, stuck in a hospital room all because I almost had a miscarriage.I was stubborn anyways. I had my laptop with me as I worked even though I knew Zane would be pissed if he caught me doing anything but bed rest. I had spoken to Maya on the phone and told her everything that was happening. She couldn't come visit because she had a lot to handle at the office.Somehow my personal assistant had become my only friend. Weird. While I was responding to an email after reading through one of the many contracts for the merger, the door came open.I looked up and saw Chloe hopping in with a wide smile with Zane and Rebecca in tow.To say I was surprised was an understatement of how I felt. "Hey babe," Zane walked over and kissed me briefly. Then he helped Chloe sit on the bed as

Confrontations had a way of making me antsy even though I managed to keep a calm demeanor.After months of successfully avoiding the people that simply plagued my existence, today it felt like they ganged up against me.Roman, Asher and Cole were seated in my office when I walked in. Then and there, I knew my day was already ruined. And I had an idea of why they were here. "What are you all doing in my office?" I asked with a frown that expressed my displeasure, not to a full degree though. "Well hello to you too, brother." Cole was the first to speak. Ever forward with his statement.I ignored him and glanced at three of them, examining their expressions.Asher seemed fidgety for some reason, like he came here against his will buy didn't have a choice. Cole seemed to enjoying the chance to annoy me.And for my uncle, the bastard just sported a smirk that I found deeply irritating."I have work to do so please get into the reason why you're here." I said, eyes darting between thre

The post went live at 11:58 PM, and I watched the engagement metrics climb from my office with a drink in my hand that I sipped from slowly.Numbers didn't lie. Before I could keep track, the likes hit ten thousand in minutes and comments flooded in faster than the platform could organize them. Of

"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
