Once His Pawn, Now His Brother’s Obsession— Too Late, Ex! Taking My Position
OPHELIA Colors drained from my face instantly. “What did you say?”“Selena is here in the company. Anna reported that she’s making her way toward your office.”Nova hadn’t finished her words properly before the door pushed open behind her and the devil walked in. Selena paused at the door. She looked from Nova to me and then a smile spread across her lips. She was dressed in a white silk two-piece suit, with red heels and a bag.She stepped forward into the office. “Oh, hi there.”“What are you doing here?” I threw the question sharply and crossed from my side to where she stood. Crossing my hands over my chest, I glared at her. “Who let you into this place?”Perhaps it was a sign that I needed to change the security guards in the company.“Who would dare not let me into my father’s property? Especially after he announced it today.”“Announced what?” I frowned.She lifted the phone in her hand to my face. The headline read boldly.‘The Valentino missing daughter finally found.’U
Once His Pawn, Now His Brother’s Obsession— Too Late, Ex! I Kissed Him And Got Rejected
OPHELIAI kissed Ronan.I fucking kissed him.Worse, I got rejected. Two days later, even as I sat at my office table, my eyes fixated on the file before me, Ronan’s words still rang in my ears. ‘You’re vulnerable. You don’t know what you’re doing.’Those were his exact words before he left the room that day. I’d been so damn embarrassed that I’d tossed and turned all night. I didn’t get a wink of sleep.Who said that I’d been vulnerable and didn’t know what I was doing? I had been in my right state of mind and goodness, what had even prompted me to kiss him, actually?I chewed my bottom lip as I remembered the taste of his lips on mine. It shouldn’t have felt so good.I was a goner. “What did you say?” Nova’s voice rang out from astride me. She stared at me with an expression mixed with surprise and pride. “I said I kissed him.” She started to smile. Then I dropped the bomb. “And I got rejected, bitch.”Her smile instantly vanished and she straightened in her seat. “Hold on. Le
Once His Pawn, Now His Brother’s Obsession— Too Late, Ex! Selena Knew The Truth From The Beginning
OPHELIA“My trustworthy doctor carried out the test at the Whitmore hospital. The result is true.”“That’s a lie.”Ronan’s words echoed in my head over and over again. My knees weakened, and I sat on the bed, trying to steady my breathing. Although I knew that the result might end up being true, a part of me had wished— had prayed that it was false.Maybe because Ronan had told me he’d find out the truth. Maybe because he’d always rescued me in every other dire situation and I’d trusted that he’d rescue me on this one too.My breath slowed and I pressed my thumb to my chest to relieve the pressure. I didn’t even notice when Ronan sat beside me until his hand fell on my waist and he made me face him. “It would leave a mark if you don’t care for it.” Then he pressed the ice bag I didn’t notice he was holding to my cheeks. I flinched.“It’s too cold.”“It would help with the mark.”My body slowly relaxed when he gently pressed it against my reddened cheek again, occasionally taking it
Once His Pawn, Now His Brother’s Obsession— Too Late, Ex! Who Touched You
OPHELIAThere was no convincing Pa. There was no convincing him that Selena was a fucking bitch whose whole purpose in life was to ruin mine. How could he believe all of these? How could he even try to get her out on bail after everything I told him that she caused.This has to be the biggest betrayal of my life.My Pa had never slapped me. Yet, for the first time because of a stranger, he did.Holding Alia against my chest, I hurried out of the living room, heading out of my PA’s mansion. He tried to call me back to apologize, but I didn’t give him the chance to reach me before I stormed out of the mansion.He admitted it. He’d cheated on my mother when she was alive and she didn't even know until she died. This was the same man I’d looked up to when it came to loyalty. Just when would anyone be loyal? Was loyalty a foreign language to men?“Miss Ophelia, you’re leaving so soon,” one of the servants commented. I said nothing and began to look around for the car that’d brought us f
Once His Pawn, Now His Brother’s Obsession— Too Late, Ex! She's My Child
OPHELIA“The DNA results are out.”Confusion washed over me as I walked to the doctor’s side and made him face me. “What DNA result are you talking about?”He brought out an envelope and stretched it to my Pa. But before it got to him, I snatched it and tore it open, my fingers opening the papers to read what was written.“Miss Selena has a 99.99% paternity match with Mr Valentino,” the doctor announced. Blood thumped in my head drastically as I read the report for myself. 99.99 paternity match. This confirms that Miss Selena, age 25 is the biological daughter of Mr Valentino.”My knees weakened and I staggered backward. Realizing the child was behind me, I forced myself to stabilize and pressed her against my legs.The doctor bowed and walked away. My gaze lifted to my father. He had his head down, his eyes staring blankly at the table before him as he shook his head.How was this even possible? What exactly is going on?I needed a goddamn explanation.“Father. What is going on?
Once His Pawn, Now His Brother’s Obsession— Too Late, Ex! DNA Results
OPHELIAAfter helping grandmother settle into the house, I left the house with Alia for my father’s.As the car rolled to a stop in front of my father’s mansion, a flash of excitement washed over me. It had been a long while since she visited this place. After her wedding to Julius, her visits had been fewer and less frequent until she totally stopped.The servants welcomed her enthusiastically. “Welcome, Miss Ophelia.”“Welcome back, Miss Ophelia.”Then their questioning eyes fell on the child that she was carrying. “Everyone, this is Alia, my daughter. Alia, say hi to the aunties.”Alia who’d been less chatty today angled her body to face them and waved weakly. The five servants began to whisper amongst themselves in surprise but none of them questioned. They made way for us to pass.“Pa is going to get here in no time. " Has the food been made?”“Yes, Miss Ophelia.”I gestured for the guards to bring in the few boxes and balloons that they carried. Because my Pa was getting discha

OPHELIA Ronan’s brow lifted even further. He said nothing. For a minute, his brown eyes fixed on me as if trying to read my thoughts. I shifted uncomfortably. For some reason, this man unsettled me. Unlike his brother's golden retriever look of brown hair and blue eyes, he was like a dark monster
Once His Pawn, Now His Brother’s Obsession— Too Late, Ex! The Death Certificate Is Fake
OPHELIA“Mrs Whitmore, I’m sorry. This death certificate is fake.” The officer at the medical records department informed me.It was mid-morning, and I was standing at the medical records department of the same hospital where I’d lost my baby. Holding the very death certificate they'd issued then.

OPHELIAMaternity match?My brows knitted together and I looked from Nova to the paper. When my eyes grew sore from staring blankly at the report, I again lifted my gaze to Nova who was staring at me with concern.“What is this?” I asked. “Whose is it?”“Ophelia.”“I don’t understand. Why are you
