Entangled With My Soon-to-be Brother-in-law Chapter 60: Lucas's POV
“What?”My words got caught in my throat, my feet transfixed to the spot as I watched Emilia walk out on me. Shock washed over me like iced waves at the sight of how bold she had become. From the moment she pointed a knife in my face the other day, I should have known she had grown wings. What changed? What gave her the nerves to flout my instructions? Definitely, she had something up her sleeves.My eyes darkened with evil, my mind sketching and searching for answers. Ethan must have brainwashed her into this. I stood still watching, till her presence faded into the shadows. “Tch Tch,” I clicked my tongue against my teeth, my toes voluntarily stomping the ground. “I will get you, marry you, get my inheritance and divorce your silly ass”. My lips curled in a smirk as I muttered beneath my breath, my blood boiling hot with desperation. Just as I turned my heel towards the stairs to go get a bottle of Jameson’s Whiskey, the maid appeared at the edge of the stairs

“Welcome to Vida Café” The doorman pushed open the door, gesturing for me to enter, his face etched with a welcoming smile as he greeted.As I walked in, a sense of unease settled in my chest, a dull ache that lingered.The aroma of freshly brewed coffee and the lavender scents, did little to calm the unsettling feeling that pulsed my nerves.Was it the guilt of how Emilia will take the news that I was pregnant with Lucas’s child?Or was it about how the family dynamics would change? I couldn’t pinpoint what exactly it was, but this unsettling feeling wore heavy on my shoulders like a truckload. I suddenly paused my steps in the middle of the café, eyes shut tightly as moments with Lucas flooded my imaginations, silencing the wave of unease that had caged my mind.My excitement returned, eyes snapped open with a malicious grin spread across my face.Lucas is the man of dreams. The man I want to wake up to every morning. “Lucas is mine”, I muttered beneath my breath, my t

On getting back downstairs, my head began to spin, a wave of dizziness enveloped me. I leaned against the wooden banister to steady myself from falling.I needed to get to the pharmacy next minute, but in this state, driving myself there was far from being an option. I grudgingly swiped open my purse zipper, to get my phone to book a taxi. “Cling cling”, my phone chimed, my patience wearing thin with every second it took before the taxi driver picked. “Hello ma’am, where……”“Rite Aid Pharmacy, Wilshire Boulevard”. I impatiently cut in, stopping the driver’s words. “Oh, alright, will be there in 2 minutes.”I was already walking towards the entrance when the call ended. As I was about to take the final step out of the house, a voice called out from a distance, which halted my movement. “Ashley!”My mother yelled. “Shitt”, I froze, anxiety pulsating my veins. “Not now please”, I stood still shutting my eyelids, my brows furrowed in a scowl. “Ashley!”She calle

I swiveled my chair around, my gaze met with Donald’s elated face, a bright smile screeching from his eyes, revealing his sparse and irregular dentition.“You know you’re one of my efficient and loyal staff”. I cooed, my right index finger pointed at him in satisfaction, an impressive grin worn on my face. Donald stood still, his arms swung behind him, folded and pressed against the center of his lower back, just above the hip, his head nodding in agreement. “Despite the recent happenings here at the office, you’ve stayed true to me.”I continued, my elbows resting on the armrest of my chair, my hands upright with my fingers intertwined as I acknowledged his commitment. “You just got yourself a salary raise, which will be made effective by the end of this month”. “Oh my goodness”, Donald’s hand flung to his face, his mouth covered in his palm in surprise. “Thank you so much Sir”. “Thank you”, he uttered, appreciating my kind gesture.“You may leave now”, I instructed,

“Yes? Why are you blowing up my phone?” “Why the fuck are you calling me?” I snorted, my face twisted in a scowl, my brows furrowed. “Ma’am, I haven’t gotten any feedback from you since the operation was executed”. Ryder uttered, his tone low and husky. “You idiot”. I spat, my voice rising. “You had just one…” I paused, my eyes glanced through the kitchen, just to be sure no one was eavesdropping. “You had just one job Ryder”, I whispered, holding my phone really close my mouth. “Just to get rid of him and you screwed it up Ryder”. I stopped my words, then walked towards the door that led into the kitchen. I peeped my head out of the door, my eyes making a quick glance at the living room. Then I stepped back into the kitchen. “You’re fully aware that it’s because you came highly recommended.” “That’s why I hired you for this job”. “But you disappointed me, dimwit”. I smirked, my face glammed with disgust. “How do you mean ma’am” He asked, his v

“How could you do this to your brother, Lucas?” My mother confronted, her voice laced with rage as she shook her head in disappointment. It was past 9am. I was all set to leave the house, but made a quick stop at the dining table to have breakfast, when my mother showed up from the kitchen, slamming me with questions. “I didn’t raise you to be this vile, Lucas!” She exclaimed ,her voice rising. I gazed off as I continued churning the smashed pieces of bread in my mouth, with my fingers hung around the handle of the coffee cup. She continued speaking, her voice dripping in fury.“You couldn’t even spare an hour to visit your brother at the hospital.” “What has come over you?” She thundered, the veins around her neck visible, her face stern. “Have you lost your mind?”“That’s enough”, I snapped, dropping the cup of coffee against the table, a bang sound piercing the air. My gaze drifting to hers, my anger seeping to the surface. “Ethan deserves every bit of pain h
