My Brother-in-law's sinful offer 25
25For a long moment, I stood frozen in the center of the living room, tongue-tied, my gaze fixed on the double doors Ethan had slammed shut."W–what does he mean by that?" I whispered into the lingering silence, asking no one in particular. Ethan was the one who claimed our marriage was a mistake, so where was this sudden, petulant resistance coming from?"Arabella, dear," Caroline said softly, stepping closer and taking my trembling hand in hers. "I think Ethan is having second thoughts... Perhaps deep down, he doesn't want to lose you after all."I closed my eyes, forcing myself to take a slow, agonizing breath in and out.*Second thoughts?* No. The only reason Ethan was acting out was because his bloated ego couldn't stomach the reality of me walking away first. He wanted me broken, begging, and groveling at his feet just to feel powerful.*What a heartless scumbag.*Three whole years of marriage, and he kept showing me ugly, malicious sides of himself I never knew existed.

The look on Ethan's face was absolute gold. The color drained from his face, his skin darkening into a dangerous shade of crimson at my confession."Who bought them?" he bit out, his sharp eyes narrowing as his mind raced, desperately calculating which powerful figure in the industry could have possibly handed me such a lifeline."Why don't you take a guess?" I replied, forcing a calm, provoking smile onto my face. "I told you before that I could raise that money in three days if I lowered myself to your level.""You ran to another man the second you got the chance?" Ethan roared, his composure shattering as he lunged forward, his hands reaching for my throat.Before I could even react or step back, Damian caught Ethan's wrist before his fingers could reach me. I had almost forgotten he was standing right behind me."I told you not to lay a hand on her!" Damian growled, his voice deep, dangerous, and dripping with raw menace.Ethan froze, staring at his father with sudden suspicion. S

Arabella’s POV Damian looked down at me, his gaze dark and unreadable. "What is going on here?" he repeated, his voice low and dangerously calm.Before I could form a sentence, Ethan stepped forward, staring at his dad with confusion. "Dad? What are you doing here?"Damian didn't answer his question. Instead, he turned his full attention to his son, his presence overwhelming the room. "Answer me. What is happening here? You cheated on Arabella?" Ethan let out a dismissive chuckle. "What? Are you going to make a big deal out of this, too? Even if I cheated, so what? If she were “wife material,” she would have kept me from straying in the first place."A hot wave of shame flushed across my face at his vile words. Every sharp comeback I had prepared withered on my tongue, replaced by a dull, suffocating numbness."Ethan!" Caroline gasped, looking horrified."Apologize to her. Right now," Damian bit out, his voice dropping into a register so dangerously low it sent a chill straight down

22"She has been at Ethan's house for over an hour," Damian bit out, his voice dropping an octave, "and you are only choosing to inform me now?”"I... um... I thought you didn't want to receive updates on her whereabouts, Boss, since you explicitly instructed Jake not to follow her," Andrew stuttered, taking an involuntary step back.He had worked as Damian's personal assistant for over 10 years. He had been an ambitious twenty-four-year-old when he first took the job, yet after all these years, the sheer weight of Damian’s aura could still make his lungs seize. Whenever Damian fixed that signature, ruthless glare onto someone, it triggered an instinctive, terrifying urge to submit—leaving zero room for presumption, argument, or error.He possessed the kind of commanding presence that made people instinctively straighten their backs when he entered a room.And right now, Andrew could sense that he was in trouble."You disobeyed my direct orders," Damian said, his eyes narrowing dange

Morning came agonizingly slow for Damian. By six, he had already pushed through a punishing session on the treadmill, his dark hair damp with sweat as he stepped into the glass shower stall.The moment he dried off, his hand automatically reached for his phone. He tapped the screen, searching for new notifications just as he had been doing at regular intervals since two in the morning.Nothing.‘Is she still sleeping?’ he mused, shutting down the subtle pang of disappointment tugging at his chest.Over the next hour, he threw himself into his routine with practiced precision. He dressed in a tailored charcoal suit, drank black coffee to sharpen his edge, reviewed the rising wave of online controversy surrounding Ethan's scandal, and made his way to Sterling Corporations.He had a high-stakes quarterly meeting scheduled at headquarters today. After walking away from his office early yesterday afternoon to corner Arabella at “Vanguard Atelier”, a mountain of paperwork had piled high acr

Author's POV**Nine Hours Earlier…**Inside the study of the Sterling estate, the heavy silence was broken only by the soft rustle of documents. Damian Sterling sat behind his mahogany desk, reviewing financial reports, when a quiet knock interrupted his focus."Come in," he called out, his voice smooth and low.The heavy oak door swung open, revealing Andrew, his right-hand man and personal secretary."Boss, I think you need to take a look at this," Andrew said, his expression unusually grave as he handed over an unlocked iPad. "The young madam is trending online."Damian took the tablet. On the screen was a photograph of his son, Ethan, leaving an upscale restaurant with Sienna. Damian tapped the comment section, his dark eyes scanning the most-liked comments:> “Aww, look at how deeply in love they look! Did you guys know Sienna is CEO Ethan's first love?”> “You can’t force true love. Some people scheme for years just to get a title, but for others, the spot was always theirs.”>
