The police station,

Jordan observed Kayden, who was speaking to some of the detectives about his father's case, with curiosity as numerous thoughts ran through his mind. He turned his attention to Aria with a probing gaze.

“When did you become so close to your brother-in-law? He's giving me weird vibes,” Jordan told Aria.

“What do you mean?” Aria asked.

“The way he looks at you and the way he treats you. It's not how a brother-in-law is supposed to act. He looks at you like you're his wom

  • My Brother-in-law's sinful offer   6. She would be back

    6Cara barely slept. The weight of Madam Davis’s words and Martin’s persistent texts coiled in her stomach like live wires. By morning, every movement felt heavy, as if the lie she was now forced to carry had physical mass. She was sipping coffee in the sunlit breakfast nook when Madam Davis swept in, dressed impeccably in a cream silk blouse. The older woman didn’t waste time on pleasantries. “Your ovulation window starts in two days,” she said without preamble, her voice low enough that only Cara would hear. “You don’t have the luxury of hesitation, Cara. I’ve arranged a discreet option if you need it. A clean, healthy man. No questions asked. You wouldn't need to do the physical act.” Cara’s grip tightened on her mug until her knuckles whitened. “I told you I’d handle it.” Madam Davis’s smile was thin and sharp. “Then handle it. Lucas is already telling people the good news. If this pregnancy doesn’t become real soon, the questions will start—” “What questions?” Lucas, who

    5Cara waited until they were alone in the upstairs sitting room before she turned on her mother-in-law like a cornered animal.“What the hell was that?” she hissed, keeping her voice low so the maids wouldn’t hear. “Pregnant? Two weeks? Are you out of your mind?”Madam Davis didn’t flinch. She sat gracefully on the velvet sofa, crossing her legs as if they had simply been discussing the weather.“You should be thanking me,” the older woman said coolly. “That doctor’s report would have destroyed this family. Now we have a way out.”“A way out?” Cara laughed bitterly, tears of frustration burning her eyes. “You just told my husband I’m carrying his child when we both know that’s impossible right now! What happens when this lie blows up in our faces?”Madam Davis’s gaze sharpened. “It won’t blow up if you do what you’re told. You will make this pregnancy real, Cara. I can arrange a healthy man for you. Sleep with him tomorrow. Every night until it happens.”Cara stared at her in disbeli

  • My Brother-in-law's sinful offer   4. What about her dream of becoming a mother?

    Madam Davis stepped out of the car into the parking lot of First Class Hospital, her shoulders slumped and her face etched with defeat. The truth about her son's condition had grown heavier on her chest. Madam Davis had turned deathly pale. The doctor even recommended Intravaginal Insemination (IVI) using donor semen. He had given them an encouraging smile. “If your husband doesn't want to adopt, you can try that. In fact, your ovulation window begins in three days. I strongly advise you to take full advantage of it. Reduce stress as much as possible and—” Cara barely registered the rest of the advice. Her mind reeled. She was healthy. All the blame, the insults, the years of silent judgment… It had never been her fault. “Shouldn't we call Lucas and tell him the results?” Cara asked the older woman. Madam Davis glared at her.“We can tell Lucas later when he comes home. Do you think this is something that should be discussed over the phone? How insensitive.” Cara bit back a res

  • My Brother-in-law's sinful offer   3. She wasn’t the problem

    After the most awkward ride in Cara’s life, she and Madam Davis arrived at First Class Hospital's parking lot. She had just stepped out of the car and was waiting for the older woman to come down too when she froze at the mention of her name. Cara would recognise Martin’s voice anywhere, but for the love of God, why did she have to run into him here today of all days? Especially since she was in the company of her mother-in-law. She pretended not to hear him calling her name, but her hair stood on end as his approaching footsteps grew louder. “Cara—” Martin had barely gotten the word out when Madam Davis cut in sharply from the side. “Cara, who is this man?” Cara’s heart slammed against her ribs. Without missing a beat, she turned to Martin with a blank, polite expression. “I don’t know him.” The words hit Martin like a slap. His dark eyes widened in shock, his jaw tightening visibly. Before he could recover, Cara dropped the final blow. “I’m sorry, but have we met before?”

  • My Brother-in-law's sinful offer   2. The doctors said everything is fine

    Cara’s legs carried her through the crowd on autopilot, her pulse still roaring in her ears. She accepted a flute of champagne from a passing waiter just to have something to hold, forcing herself to smile at familiar faces as if nothing had happened. As if Martin Hawthorn hadn’t just ripped open four years of carefully sealed wounds. She felt him before she saw him again. Every time she glanced towards one side of the garden, he was there—watching, waiting for an opening. The first time, he started walking towards her while she was speaking with one of Kayden’s business associates. Cara excused herself smoothly and slipped into a group of Aria’s employees near the dessert table. Another time, he nearly reached her beside the rose arch, but she turned and headed straight for the ladies’ room. She refused to give him the satisfaction of another conversation. Not today. Not when her brother and best friend were finally happy. Not when she had spent the past years learning how to

  • My Brother-in-law's sinful offer   1. I hate you Martin Hawthorn

    Cara couldn’t stop smiling. She stood among the elegant crowd in the sunlit garden, watching as Aria and Kayden exchanged vows under a canopy of white roses and twinkling lights. Her best friend looked radiant in her gown, glowing with a kind of happiness Cara hadn’t seen on her in years. Kayden, for once, wasn’t wearing his usual icy scowl—he looked at Aria like she was the only person in the world. It was perfect. Beautiful. Everything they had fought for. Cara was happy for them…truly happy. So why did she feel like something was lodged in her chest? She clasped her hands tighter in front of her champagne-colored dress, forcing the smile to stay in place. ‘Be happy for them,’ she inwardly told herself. ‘You are happy for them.’ But when Aria laughed softly at something Kayden whispered against her lips, a sharp image flashed through Cara’s mind—strong arms, a rare smile, the low rumble of a voice that once promised her the world before he took it all away. ‘Martin.’ The th

    “Ariana… Babydoll… Love, can you hear me? I miss you so much,” Kayden whispered to the sleeping beauty. “Please open your eyes, and I'll do anything you want me to do,” he added. ‘Even if it's the truth about the past. Even if you wouldn't choose me after you find out I'm your mom's murderer, ple

    When Kayden finally let go of Aria and allowed her to sleep, it was past midnight. She looked exhausted as she lay weakly on the bed as if there were no bones left in her body.Kayden got out of bed, found a towel, wet it, and began to clean all the sweat from her body so that she could sleep comf

    Aria looked like she had seen a ghost. The name slipped through her lips before she could stop herself. “Jayden.” “Why so distant? Call me like you always do. Honey? Hubby? Babe?” He taunted. “Let's do the check-up later,” Dr. Jason told Dr. Natalie, dragging her away. “Martin! Anthony! Who let

    “Why are you speaking about yourself as if you're talking about another person?” “Because he is not me!” Kayden growled. “I know we're identical, but couldn't you tell the difference? We're nothing alike!” Aria didn't even know what Kayden was talking about. He was raving mad, and he wasn't makin
