Ethan's pov

I tried calling mandy a few more times but it only went straight to voice mail, even Jonathan and Andrew weren't answering

What the hell was going on ?.

And the worse part was, Aaron was in jail so that meant anything could happen, and by anything I meant nothing because nothing would be fine about this whole Benson situation.

I let out a deep sigh.

“Ethan honey, is nobody picking up?” My mum asked from where she stood with Gil, who now had a smiling Amelia in her hands.

  • TAMING THE BILLIONAIRE; My Brother's Best Friend    A DIFFERENT VIEW

    Ethan’s POV“I still can’t believe you’re dragging me along to see Aaron,” Mandy said as she buckled herself in.Her tone was light, teasing, but her eyes kept darting toward me like she expected me to bolt.Honestly? That made two of us.My knee bounced uncontrollably as I started the car.“I’m not dragging you,” I muttered. “You practically forced yourself into my passenger seat.”She snorted. “Please. You would’ve driven there alone, had a panic attack in the parking lot, and gone home without even stepping inside.”“Would not,” I argued.She gave me that look.“…Fine,” I sighed. “Probably.”The truth was simple:I wasn’t ready.But I also couldn’t not go.Once I’d finished the letter, everything clicked in my head—the failing company, Cheryl crying on the phone, Benson’s manipulation, the fear threaded into every line Aaron wrote.I had to help.Cheryl wasn’t just an employee. She was family. She was the reason Warner Industries even survived its first year without Aaron . And if

  • TAMING THE BILLIONAIRE; My Brother's Best Friend    NO LONGER AN OPTION

    Ethan’s POVI stared at the screen.Lines of code.Error messages.Three different diagnostic tabs open.None of it was sinking in.I’d been fidgeting with this dumb computer for almost thirty minutes, pretending the bug was the problem—pretending the files refusing to load were the reason my chest felt tight and my head felt cloudy.But that wasn’t it.It was the letter.The damn letter sitting in the trash bin beside my desk like a crime I committed.I pushed my chair back and rubbed at my face. “This is ridiculous,” I muttered to myself. “It’s just a letter.”But that was the problem.It wasn’t just a letter.It was from a letter from Aaron.And ever since Alex opened it and freaked out, ever since he made those comments about the “past” and “moving forward,” the guilt had been sitting in my stomach like a stone.But why would Aaron write to me?Why now?Why after a whole year of silence?I picked up my coffee mug, took a sip, and set it down again. I couldn’t focus. My brain refu

  • TAMING THE BILLIONAIRE; My Brother's Best Friend    SETTLING DOWN ENVY

    Connor’s POVI was exhausted.The kind of exhaustion that settles into your bones and makes every step feel heavier than it should. Work had been hell today—meetings that went nowhere, calls that repeated themselves, problems that magically multiplied the moment you solved one. By the time I dragged myself up my driveway, I was fully prepared to collapse face-first into my bed and not wake up for a decade.What I wasn’t prepared for… was the smell.Warm. Savory. Something simmering.I blinked twice before pushing the door open.There she was.Mandy.In my kitchen.Hair tied up in some messy knot, an apron that definitely wasn’t hers thrown over her clothes, and her lips mouthing lyrics of a song she probably didn’t even like—just something to fill the air.She looked up, startled for a second, then brightened.“Hey! You’re home early.”Early? It was nearly eight.I leaned against the doorway, eyebrows raised. “What are you doing here? Thought you were sleeping over at Ethan’s again.”

  • TAMING THE BILLIONAIRE; My Brother's Best Friend    SOMETHING'S WRONG

    ETHAN’S POVI was practically tripping down the steps, adjusting my tie for what felt like the hundredth time. Late again. I hated being late, but somehow, mornings like this had a way of sabotaging even my best intentions. My mom appeared at the bottom of the stairs, waving something in her hand.“Ethan! Morning!” she called, smiling.“Morning,” I mumbled, hurriedly straightening my tie.She held out a small envelope. “You’ve got mail.”I blinked at her, mind still half-asleep. “Mail?”“Yeah. I think you should take it with you. Might be important.”I grunted, snatching it from her. “Thanks, Mom. I really need to—”“Will you look at it when you get home?” she asked.“No, I’ll… I’ll just take it with me,” I said quickly. I wanted to get out the door before I ran out of time.She frowned but didn’t argue. “Just… don’t forget it, okay?”I rushed out, ignoring her voice calling after me. “I’ll take care of it!”******The moment I got to work, the mail got forgotten entirely. It landed o

  • TAMING THE BILLIONAIRE; My Brother's Best Friend    STEPBROTHER CEO

    CONNOR’S POVJack was already talking before I even fully closed the glass door behind me.“I honestly didn’t think he had the balls to do it,” he muttered, leaning back in his chair with a grin. “Alex? Proposing? To your brother? I thought Ethan would be the one running for the hills, but who would have known?.”I didn’t laugh. Instead I just exhaled and folded my arms.“Yeah. I didn’t think so either,” I muttered. “And I don’t know how I feel about it.”Jack raised a brow. “You’ve met the guy, haven't you? what—twice?”“Three times,” I corrected. “And yeah, he’s… fine. Pretty chill, I guess. But something about the whole thing just feels—” I searched for the right word, “—off. Like it’s rushed. Forced. Like he’s trying too hard or something.”“You sound jealous,” Jack teased.I shot him a glare. “I’m not jealous. I just—he’s my brother. I want to make sure he’s not jumping into something stupid.”Jack let out a laugh. “If you’re that worried, you’re the CEO. Call him into your offic
