LANA

At that moment, I felt panic creeping in for the first time. I was still trying to gather my thoughts, wondering what to say to her, when suddenly I heard Charles’s voice from downstairs.

“Mommy, come and join us! Let’s play together,” he called.

Annabella looked at me and smiled softly before walking away. A few minutes later, she joined Charles and the others, leaving me feeling like an outsider.

Maximum must have noticed my unease. He glanced toward me from the balcony, and I waved at him with a small smile.

He then turned away from the mother and son, but Charles called out again, “Dad, where are you going? Aren’t you going to play with us?”

Maximum responded gently, “It’s late. Time to rest and get ready for school tomorrow.”

He returned inside, and I left the balcony, entering our bedroom. My mind was suddenly filled with thoughts of having a child.

“Do you want a child?” I blurted out suddenly to Maximum.

He looked at me in surprise, caught off guard by the question, just

  • ON THE BRUTAL BILLIONAIRE'S BED   Chapter 163: I Will Come And Pick It Up Myself

    MAXIMUMWhen Lana looked in my direction, her face flushing with embarrassment, I couldn’t help but laugh. I found it adorable when my wife showed this vulnerable side of herself.Charles ran over and hugged my legs. “Welcome back, Dad,” he said happily.I picked him up and then approached Lana, holding Charles in my arms. “How was school today?” I asked her gently.She smiled at me before replying, “Not bad. I just got back not too long ago.”I nodded, then hesitated before saying, “I have something to tell you about your dad later.”Her expression grew serious, and I could tell she had already guessed that it wasn’t good news, even before I said a word.After settling Charles, we headed upstairs to my room. I initially suggested we showered together, but I could see Lana’s impatience—she was eager to hear what I had to say about her father.“Are we going to eat dinner first before you tell me?” she grumbled.I nodded. “Yes.”I watched her pout her lips at me, and I couldn’t resist s

  • ON THE BRUTAL BILLIONAIRE'S BED   Chapter 162: Why Are You Smiling?

    LANAHe turned around at the door and said to me, "I understand you, my love." Then he opened the door and left. I looked down at my feet, lost in thought about what I had just done. A wave of relief washed over me—I didn’t want Charles to leave, not today, not until the DNA results came back. I didn’t want Maximum to regret his decision.I glanced outside and saw Annabella and her son had moved their luggage back into the house. I exhaled in relief.It was dinner time. I left my room, and Maximum stepped out of the study. We headed downstairs together. When we reached the dining area, I saw Charles and his mother already seated there.“Daddy!” Charles cried happily, then jumped off his seat and ran toward Maximum.Seeing this, a smile spread across my face. I was truly happy because he was happy. I even imagined how it would feel if my own child ran up to me, shouting my name and trying to embrace me.“Thank you, Dad,” Charles said with a sweet smile. “For not letting us leave. Mom t

  • ON THE BRUTAL BILLIONAIRE'S BED   Chapter 161: I Am Sorry

    LANAI had been thinking about it too, and I found myself somewhat agreeing—separating Charles from his mother would only cause him more harm.After washing up and changing, we descended for dinner. The atmosphere in the dining room was tense; no one spoke, and it seemed as though no one was willing to break the heavy silence.Once dinner was over, we moved to the sitting room and sat in front of the screen. My thoughts wandered elsewhere, lost in deep reflection. Suddenly, Charles stood up abruptly and knelt before Maximum.He cupped his hands together and pleaded emotionally, “Please, Dad, don’t send me away. I promise I’ll be good, I’ll be obedient and respectful. I’ll never cause trouble. Please don’t send me away.”Seeing tears streaming down his face, along with snot, my heart ached. I couldn’t hold back the tears in my own eyes.“Who told you you’d be sent away?” Maximum asked suddenly.I turned to look at Annabella, my heart pounding at the thought that a mother might use her

  • ON THE BRUTAL BILLIONAIRE'S BED   Chapter 160: They Have To Leave

    MAXIMUMWhen I first heard the news, I was furious. But after a moment of reflection, I realized there was no real reason to be angry with my wife for trying to confirm the truth. If she hadn’t done so, I might have thought she didn’t love me at all.A faint smile curled my lips.Then I gave the order, my voice firm: “Make sure no one tampers with the results.”I knew my father-in-law too well. He might see this as an opportunity to sow discord between me and Annabella. I had to be cautious.Lost in thought, I pondered what to do with Annabella and Charles. After a few days, especially once Lana received the DNA results, I decided to send them away.I clocked out early from work and headed home. As I entered, I saw Annabella already there — I was sure Charles had returned from school too.“Welcome home, Max,” Annabella greeted me with a warm smile.I looked at her steadily. “Come with me,” I commanded.I led her to my study and seated her gently. Once she was settled, she said, “Charl

    LANAMy dad didn’t insist I stay either. Instead, he got to his feet, looked at me, and said softly, “Let me walk you out.”He didn’t say another word about Annabella or her son. Instead, he simply embraced me and added, “Come home more often.”“Thank you, Daddy,” I replied, feeling a warmth spread through me.We broke the hug, and I stepped into the car. As we drove away, I couldn’t shake the thoughts swirling in my mind. His words echoed in my head, and I felt a strange pressure—restless, almost overwhelmed. Somehow, what he said made sense, even if I didn’t want to admit it.By the time the car pulled up to my house, dusk had fallen. From inside, I saw Charles running around, laughing happily, Maximus chasing after him.Watching them, I couldn’t help but think—perhaps they really are like father and son. The resemblance struck me suddenly, and I wondered if I was overthinking.Quietly, I entered the house without disturbing them. After a quick shower and changing clothes, I heard a

  • ON THE BRUTAL BILLIONAIRE'S BED   Chapter 158: What Did You Say?

    LANAI realized that Maximum wasn’t wrong to suspect Annabella; every fact seemed to point toward her having a hidden agenda and secret plans.That night, I lay awake, pondering what I should do next. The next morning, we woke up and prepared for the day. I got ready for school, and after sharing a quick kiss, we headed out.Maximum promised, “Babe, I’m going to drive you to school.”Hearing that made me feel a surge of excitement. My husband had been so busy the past few weeks that our bond had suffered, and he hadn’t driven me to campus in a while. I was both thrilled and looking forward to it.We descended the staircase together.At the dining table, Annabella and her son were already waiting.When Charles saw Maximum, he immediately sprang to his feet, running over and shouting, “Good morning, Daddy!”Maximum scooped him up from the ground and, with a serious tone, instructed, “Greet my wife too.”Charles pursed his lips — I expected him to stubbornly refuse, but to my surprise, h
