Liana's POV

I could not believe what I just heard Mark tell me. Shayla's dad owns such a luxurious place, which definitely means that Shayla is from a very wealthy family. I thought they only lived in a good apartment, but I never imagined her family to be this wealthy. I guess everyone around here grew up in luxury compared to how I grew up, changing environments every time my mom's heart changed or every time she got herself into trouble.

My mood suddenly became sour because it felt like I was never going to match up to them based on the way they were raised.

“This was actually unexpected; I didn't know that her father would own such a place.”

“Did she say the reason why she's staying at your house?” I nodded my head immediately when I heard the question he asked because a few days ago I overheard her and Jace talking about a renovation.

“She said something about a renovation going on in her house, and she wouldn't be able to live there for a while.” Our order arrived, and I was hop

  • My New Stepbrother, My Mate    Chapter 171

    Jace's POVThis has been the busiest moment of my life; even when I started working at the company, I never worked this hard. Now I know the kind of pressure my father was under, which made him unable to have a love time for me when I was younger, and I used to complain sadly. It's only been a few days, and I honestly want to quit right now because I barely even have time for myself anymore. I have been working tirelessly. I know that I shouldn't be stressing too much about it because I still have my dad by my side, who is always guiding me, but I don't want members of the pack to think that I am not manly enough to handle situations in the pack.My dad has been trying to help me, but I've been rejecting every gesture from him just because I want to prove to everyone that I am man enough to lead. I know that most of them still think that I am a daddy’s boy and I can't do anything for the pack, but I need to prove to them that I am not who they think I am and I'm way better than they t

  • My New Stepbrother, My Mate   Chapter 170

    Liana's POVIt's been 2 days already, and my mom and I have not been able to have any serious conversation about what happened the other day because I have literally refused to speak to her since then. I know that I might be kind of overreacting, but I honestly don't know how to express myself to her, especially after finding out that she wasn't even willing to tell me the truth in the first place. If I had not found out the way I did, I believe that I'd no longer be a child, and you should have confided in me to tell me the truth. Even if you don't plan on getting back together, at least I deserve to know the truth because he's my father.The worst situation now is that I am Shayla's stepsister, which is something I never imagined would ever happen. If I had known that something like that was going to happen, I would have never been her enemy. Maybe I would have given up on my feelings for Jace earlier. Because right now this is a very awkward situation, and I don't want to find myse

  • My New Stepbrother, My Mate   Chapter 169

    Liana's POVI was still very shocked and speechless at the same time because all this year my mom never told me anything about having another that she made me drop. The one I knew as a child was my father. I was trying not to overreact after hearing the truth, but at the same time, I couldn’t calm down about it because I need a full explanation, and I also want to know the reason why she lied to me.“Mom, just tell me it’s a lie, and I am going to pretend like I never heard you say anything.” I held my mom’s hand, waiting to hear the next thing she would see, but unfortunately she didn’t say anything to me, which can also be translated as the truth. I took a few steps backwards because I was feeling betrayed and lied to at the same time. She had every opportunity to tell me the truth, but she chose not to and decided to lie to me for almost 20 years. I am literally just finding out that someone I have never met in my entire life is my actual dad.I was actually wishing that the party

  • My New Stepbrother, My Mate   Chapter 168

    Liana’s POVI was walking around trying to look for something to do because I’ve been dressed up for about 20 minutes now and nothing has started yet, so I said I’d look around somewhere to see if I could see my mom around because I’ve been trying to find her, but she’s literally nowhere to be found. I have asked everyone inside, and they said they don’t know anything about where she has gone to, and I don’t recall her telling me that she has somewhere to be. I was getting frustrated searching around for her, and then I decided to go to the other side of the house. Just then I saw her speaking to Shayla’s dad.My mom has had a series of relationships, but I’ve never seen one like this before, so I don’t expect both of them to know each other. Before, judging from the kind of conversation we were having, it looked very tense because my mom was literally yelling at the top of her voice. I decided to give both of them space to talk and turned back to leave when I heard her talk about how

  • My New Stepbrother, My Mate   Chapter 167

    Celeste's POVI felt like I was beginning to see things the moment I saw him standing right in front of me. The same person I thought was dead years ago is the same person standing right in front of me, alive and healthy. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I had to rub my eyes gently and check again if I wasn’t seeing things, but after I rubbed my eyes, I realized he was still standing in front of me, which definitely means that I wasn’t seeing things and the person I thought was dead is still alive.If he was alive all these years, why did he not bother to look for me? He told me back then that he would never leave me, even though his family was not in support of our relationship, especially when he knew that I was expecting a baby with him. His family literally made life very difficult for me, which is why our relationship would not work. We were supposed to get married, but he had to get married to someone else that his family wanted him to be with.If I had known that he would not stand

  • My New Stepbrother, My Mate   Chapter 166

    Liana's POVWe all know about the feud between both families, so I was shocked to see Shayla’s father present in the house even before the celebration started. I wasn’t expecting that because I know both families don’t get along well.Shayla also looked shocked to see her dad at the house; she was probably not expecting him to be present too. It’s my first time seeing him, and he looks way younger than I am; anyone could easily think he’s her brother and not her father.“Good day, sir.” I greeted him in the presence of his daughter that hates me so much. I thought about it very well and realized it wouldn’t make sense if I walked away without saying anything to him.“You are?” He asked, and I suddenly stopped walking so that I could answer him.“Dad, she is actually someone unimportant; you don’t have to know who she is. Besides, we need to talk. I don’t understand what you’re doing here. You know that he’s going to lose his cool the moment he sees you, so why did you bother coming in
