Anna's gaze snapped to the blonde woman, her brows furrowing.

Darling? Did they know each other?

Her eyes returned to Jason to find him still looking at her. Her lips twitched and she took a step forward; the woman had to be a colleague or one of those women who flirted with powerful men, hoping something would stick.

No sooner had she taken her first step, she froze in her tracks. The blonde woman hugged Jason. His hand settled at the small of her back and… stayed there, pressing her close

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    Let Me Help You

    Jason Knight Backs New Energy-Tech Start-Up, Hayes Predictive Grid.Anna slowly walked up the cobblestone pathway, too lost in thought to appreciate its serenity. Apparently, he had acquired some Swiss technology company on his trip to Zürich, and now.... Hayes tiny start-up, as the media had called it? She vividly remembered the look on Jason's face when he'd glanced around the hall of their class reunion and declared:No one here is innocent.And now, the same Jason was putting money, credibility, and his name behind Travis?He was magnanimous enough to put aside his grudges for business but not enough to protect what they'd shared?Anna finally snapped out of her head when her foot caught on the first step of the stone stairs. She stumbled, righting herself before she could hit the steps.You should be more careful, Vegas. You're pregnant.Anna scowled at the stairs like they had personally offended her. "You're pregnant. My child. My baby. That arrogant, infuriating man."She walk

    Jason eased the Porsche to a stop beneath the covered executive entrance, slamming on the brakes harder than necessary. He hadn't even fully stopped before the scene outside registered.There were journalists behind the security barriers. Financial correspondents. Local TV crews. Microphones. Reporters calling his name and photographers firing off shots.The sight of them deepened the scowl on his face. Before he'd even killed the engine, one of the valet attendants was already approaching, two security officers behind him. They created a buffer between the car and the press.“Morning, Mr. Knight."Jason tossed the keys to the valet, not bothering with his usual response. “Garage.”“Yes, sir.” The attendant slipped behind the wheel as Jason stepped out.A security officer immediately positioned himself between Jason and the press while the other held the line. Ethan walked out from the lobby then, a frown etched onto his face."There's a tiny problem, boss," Ethan said the moment he g

    Why was everyone staring at her?It all felt like a chilling repeat of the past few weeks. Reporting to work and feeling like a specimen on a slide, held in place by stage clips and prodded from all angles. Except there was something different this time.The lights weren't as harsh."The lady of the hour," Abigail beamed the second she got to the station. Anna's brows pulled tighter."What's going on, Abby?"Abigail leaned in, her voice lowering. "Does Knight Innovations have an internship program? Because sign me up.""What?""Anna! You're here."Anna turned toward the voice to find Sierra, charts in hand."What's going on, Sierra?"Sierra leaned in and whispered. "Your brother-in-law is here."Anna froze. But, Sierra wasn't done."I think he's in the director's office. Apparently, people have been suspicious of your relationship since he insisted on being treated by you.”"Our relationship?" Anna managed to choke out.Sierra nodded. "The rumor going around is that he's here to deman

    Anna blinked, then pulled her lip between her teeth, realizing what she'd let out in the vulnerability of the moment.“Nothing. I didn't mention he said anything?”Leah didn't look fazed. “Anna.”“He really didn't—”“Don't ‘he didn't’ me, girl. Your ass just stood there and told me you're afraid he wants the baby and not you. So imma ask again." Leah's voice hardened, “What did Jason Knight say to you?”"He wants access to the baby."Leah scoffed like that was the most outrageous thing she'd ever heard. "There ain't even no baby yet. What—he wants to sing lullabies while rubbing your stomach?"Before Anna could stop herself, a mental image formed in her head—her, with a baby bump, lying on the swing seat on the second balcony of Jason's Villa, her legs on his lap as he rubbed her stomach and sang a lullaby. Leah snapped her fingers in front of her and Anna jerked back, blinking back into focus.She sighed the moment she saw the look on Leah's face. "It doesn't matter what he wants any

    'I had a miscarriage.'The words hung between them. Anna sat frozen in place.For one strange second, everything in the room looked exactly the same—the rumpled sheets, the lamp throwing its soft light across the room—but nothing felt the same anymore.Anna's fingers tightened around the sheets.A miscarriage.Leah had said it so quietly, as though saying it softly could make it hurt less.Anna swallowed. Her mind was already reaching for questions. How far along? When? What happened? Had she needed a procedure? Had there been complications? Had the doctor said she couldn't carry another baby?The doctor in her wanted answers. The woman sitting beside her wanted to pull Leah into her arms and ask why she'd carried something this enormous alone.For once, Anna didn't know which one Leah needed.“Leah…” Her voice cracked on the name.Leah looked down at her hands. "I-I didn't know how to tell you. Or Gideon. Or anyone else for that matter. That was why I left immediately after Elena and

    Anna sighed contentedly as she stepped out from the bathroom, a white towel wrapped around her head. Cold air from the air-conditioning brushed against her skin through the open robe.She stifled a yawn, stopping as she noticed the tray of food on the bedside table. Her eyes darted to the door immediately as if the person who'd brought it would still be thereShe walked cautiously over to it and touched it. It was hot.Maybe the staff had brought it in while she was bathing?Voices drifted in through the windows she'd pushed open earlier, carrying with them the quiet sounds of the grounds. She padded over, pushed the curtain aside. Jason stood near the outdoor kitchen with Cole, speaking to one of the staff. Her fingers tightened around the curtain.What were they doing out there?Another staff member walked out, joining them at the the kitchen. She stopped close to Jason and said something. Jason's head tilted, listening. Then the woman glanced toward the house.Jason's gaze lifted w

    Every part of her ached. Anna groaned, rubbing her shoulders as she walked through the resident lounge. Her shift had ended a couple hours ago, but she'd stayed back to clear some paperwork. She wasn't on the night shift and there was nothing else she was more grateful for. She yawned, pulled th

    “R&D team just confirmed the prototype for the portable diagnostic scanner passed its first trial.” Jason’s pen stilled mid-signature, the low hum of the city seeping through his office window. His gaze lifted to Ethan, who stood in front of his desk, scrolling his tablet. “They’re calling it Pul

    Anyone looking would think the weight of the world bored him more than it burdened him. Jason lounged on the couch with an almost careless grace, head tilted against his knuckles, eyes shut. His robe hung loose over his shoulders, the kind of ease that came only to men who didn’t need to try. His

    Anna froze where she stood right as the curtain slid away from the ER bay. And there he was. Lying on the bed—shirt half unbuttoned, sleeves rolled up, gauze on his forearm, smirk perfectly intact.Anna stared, the clipboard Dr. Carter had handed her slipping slightly in her grip. Her fingers ti
