"You do know that, so why keep pushing me? Why aren't you staying away from me too?" My voice cracked at the end, and I hated how small I sounded.

"What happened between us is wrong. You should be keeping your distance from me. Or was that all part of your plan? To play with my feelings, to say you were sorry just to mess with me like you always do-" 

The words died in my throat as he moved so fast I barely had time to register it. His hands pinned mine against the wall on

  • My Steprother's Secret Obsession   Chapter 235: Revelation

    For several days now, my body had felt weak and exhausted all the time. Everything felt heavy, even simple tasks drained me easily. And honestly, I knew it was because I had been neglecting myself badly ever since everything happened.There were days when I skipped meals entirely because I had no appetite at all. Sometimes I would only realize late at night that I hadn’t eaten anything the entire day. It was no surprise that I had already lost weight. The heartbreak, stress, and loneliness were slowly consuming me little by little.Once I stepped out of the company building, I headed straight toward the shed where employees usually waited to hail taxis. The evening air felt unusually heavy against my skin, and with every step I took, the dizziness I had been trying so hard to ignore only grew worse.My head was throbbing painfully. Everything around me felt strangely unsteady, but I forced myself to keep walking anyway. I just needed to get home, that was all I

  • My Steprother's Secret Obsession   Chapter 234: Void

    It had already been two weeks since I broke up with Theo.Two long, miserable weeks that felt more like years to me.After our separation, I accepted the company's offer to transfer to another branch and took on the position of CHRO there. I left the Capital shortly after and moved into a new apartment, far away from him b ut no matter how far I went, no matter how much I tried to bury myself in work and routine, I still couldn't escape Theo's presence in my mind.My new job was going well. The employees welcomed me warmly, and my colleagues were genuinely kind people. Everyone treated me with respect, and the work itself wasn't difficult to adjust to. But despite all of that, I still felt completely empty inside.For the past two weeks, my life had become nothing more than a lifeless routine. Work, go home, sleep, wake up, then repeat everything all over again. I moved through each day like a machine simply functioning because it had no other choice. There was n

    "You don't know that? If we continue this relationship and keep disobeying them, her condition could get worse. I love you, Theo but I love my mother too. I'm sorry. You can hate me for this if you want, but I really can't do this anymore. Let's end our relationship."I forced myself to look directly into his eyes despite how much it hurt. Fresh tears rolled endlessly down my face."No, I won't agree to this." Theo said immediately. His voice sounded desperate now.Then suddenly, to my shock, he slowly dropped to his knees in front of me."Please, baby. Have pity on me. I can't survive losing you again." he begged brokenly while looking up at me with tear-filled eyes.That sight completely shattered my heart. Seeing Theo kneel before me like that almost made me give in instantly. The man who once carried himself with so much pride and confidence was now begging me not to leave him.It destroyed me inside but despite how much pity and l

    "Baby, please. I already told you. We can get through this. I'll take care of everything..." he said weakly as he looked devastated.Before I could stop him, he suddenly pulled me into his arms. The moment he hugged me, I almost completely fell apart. His embrace felt warm, safe, comforting, exactly like home.And for one painful second, all I wanted was to stay there forever and forget everything else but I know I couldn't.I couldn't allow myself to weaken now. So despite how much it hurt me, I forcefully pushed him away."I said I don't want this anymore! Why are you being so persistent?!" I shouted violently.Theo staggered slightly from how hard I pushed him, but he still looked at me with disbelief and pain."I know something happened. You wouldn't act like this for no reason. Did they talk to you? What did they say?" he demanded. His patience was clearly starting to wear thin now.I quickly looked away because I couldn't

  • My Steprother's Secret Obsession   Chapter 231: Agony

    It felt as though my entire world had collapsed by the time I returned to Theo's penthouse. I wasn't myself anymore. While standing inside the elevator, I felt completely numb, like my body was moving on its own while my mind remained trapped back in the hospital room with Mommy's desperate cries echoing inside my head.Everything felt unbearably heavy. My chest ached so much it became difficult to breathe properly, and my thoughts were so tangled with fear, guilt, and heartbreak that I could barely think straight anymore.I didn't even realize how long the ride up to the penthouse had taken because my mind was elsewhere the entire time. All I could remember was Mommy lying weakly on that hospital bed. Her trembling voice, her painful gasps for air and the promise I had made.The promise that shattered me completely.By the time I reached the penthouse door, I felt emotionally exhausted and empty inside. I was just about to tap the key card against the scanner wh

    Then after what felt like forever, the doctor finally stepped out of the ICU. Uncle Greg immediately approached him."What happened to my wife, Doctor?" he asked anxiously. The doctor removed his mask before answering seriously."She suffered a mild heart attack caused by severe stress and excessive worrying. Didn't I already explain before that emotional stress is extremely dangerous for her condition?"My entire body went cold hearing those words. The doctor's words struck me like a painful slap across the face. I felt my chest tighten as guilt completely consumed me.Slowly, I noticed Uncle Greg turn toward me and cast a sharp, resentful glance in my direction. I immediately looked away, unable to bear the accusation in his eyes bcause deep inside, I knew I truly was responsible for this."How is she now? Is she alright?" Uncle Greg quickly asked again."She's stable for now. We're going to admit her for several days so we can closely mon

    He was so cruel, always doing this to me. I must have kicked him harder than I thought, because he was doubled over in pain, cursing furiously.The first thing I thought of out of fear was to run and that's what I did. I ran as fast as my legs would carry me, like my life depended on it. T

    I got home from school, changed my clothes, and headed to the kitchen to find a snack. With no maids around to help, I made something to eat myself.He found me there and immediately started picking a fight, hurling insults as usual."Look who it is! The princess, feeding herself,"

    I froze in shock for a heartbeat before I began to fight him, twisting my head to pull away but only succeeded in making him kiss me harder. His grip tightening to hold me in place.I kept my lips closed as tight as possible, but he wouldn’t stop. He skillfully forced my mouth open a

    Weeks turned into months, and the mansion grew quiet. We no longer bickered or fought like we used to. He was busy with his high school graduation and figuring out which university to attend for college. I’ll admit I still went out of my way to avoid running into him, all because of that kiss. Bu
