TANGLED BETWEEN BROTHERS Chapter Ninety-Seven
Adrian’s POVI arrived at the company earlier than usual.There was barely anyone around. Just some staff and of course, my partner, Ethan.Ethan leaned against the edge of the desk, folding his arms while staring down at the files spread across the table like they were pieces of a puzzle he didn’t like the look of.I rubbed the back of my neck, trying to ignore the dull ache in my side. The doctor had said I should be resting.Clearly, that wasn’t happening today.“So,” Ethan said slowly, tapping a finger on one of the folders. “Either your brother has suddenly developed very questionable taste in business partners…”He flipped the page. “…or he’s an idiot.”I exhaled quietly. “That narrows it down.”Ethan shot me a sideways look. “You’re not even surprised.”“I’m disappointed,” I corrected.I leaned forward slightly, scanning the financial report again.The file contained large transactions to offshore accounts, companies that didn’t technically exist and to top it up there were na

Nicole’s POVThe next morning, the air outside Zara’s apartment felt unusually calm.The sun had barely climbed above the buildings, and the streets below were still quiet except for the occasional passing car. It should have felt peaceful.Instead, my mind refused to slow down.Everything from last night kept replaying in my head like a film I couldn’t pause.My cheeks warmed instantly at the memory, and I quickly pressed my palms against them, as if that would somehow cool the embarrassment.“Okay,” I muttered under my breath. “Stop thinking about it.”“Stop thinking about what?”I nearly jumped.Zara stood at the doorway of the kitchen, leaning casually against the frame with a mug in her hand and the most suspicious look on her face.I blinked multiple times. “You move way too quietly.”Zara ignored that completely.Instead, her eyes slowly scanned my face.Then she smiled.Oh no.That smile meant trouble.“Well, well,” she said, walking toward me slowly. “Someone looks… interest
TANGLED BETWEEN BROTHERS Chapter Ninety-Five
Nicole's POV I was just stepping out of my last class, the late afternoon sunlight slanting across the schoolyard, when I saw the black car parked neatly at the curb. My stomach dropped in a way.It was Adrian.I froze for a second, my backpack slipping slightly off my shoulder. From the corner of my eyes, I caught a familiar presence lingering near the school fence. “Why is Frank watching me?” I thought to myself.Frank's sharp, calculating gaze followed us as I hurried toward the car, my pulse quickening. I forced myself not to look directly at him, not to give him the satisfaction of seeing my reaction.Adrian stepped out of the car before I could even reach it, his usual calm confidence radiating like a shield. “Hey,” he said softly, his voice echoing across the pavement.I hesitated, unsure how to react, then slid into the passenger seat, trying to act casual. “Why… why are you here?” I asked, my voice a mix of curiosity and guardedness.His eyes softened as he leaned slight

Third Person Pov Ethan pushed open the door to his favorite little shop, the smell of coffee and warm pastries instantly familiar. He liked it there.It was quiet, unpretentious, and the perfect place to escape the constant chaos of his life.But today, the quiet was broken.Zara was there, leaning casually against the counter, her arms crossed, one eyebrow arched, watching him like she had been waiting all day.Ethan froze mid-step, eyes narrowing. “Zara?” His voice was sharp, yet laced with uncertainty. “What are you doing here? Are you… stalking me?”Zara didn’t flinch. She let out a soft hum, as if the accusation were a joke. “Stalking you? No, Ethan. I’m… just coincidentally here.” She smiled, playful, teasingly.Ethan exhaled slowly, rubbing the back of his neck. “Right… coincidentally.” He tried to move past her toward the counter, but she stepped slightly closer, forcing him to stop.“And while we’re coincidentally together,” she said, leaning forward slightly, “how about d
TANGLED BETWEEN BROTHERS Chapter Ninety-Three
Nicole's POV I sat on the edge of my bed, with my phone in hand, the screen glowing softly in the dim room. The video notification blinked.Adrian had posted an update about the party. My fingers hovered over it for a moment. I didn’t want to watch… but I decided to. I needed to see him, hear him, even if it was just through a screen.I tapped play.Adrian appeared, sitting upright, looking as composed as ever, though I knew better. He couldn't have just healed from the gunshot, so he is still working despite the pain.The bright studio lights hit his face, highlighting every sharp angle.I hated to admit the fact that I missed it a lot.I sat my phone down, the screen going dark, and sat back against my chair. Silence filled the room, but my chest still felt tight, as if I were carrying the weight of everything Adrian had said and everything he had gone through. I couldn’t help the small ache in my chest as I thought about him. I missed him more than I realized.I had hoped h
TANGLED BETWEEN BROTHERS Chapter Ninety-Two
Nicole's POV The next morning, I was walking through the crowded school corridor, my bag slung over one shoulder, when I felt a sharp tap on my arm. I turned, and my stomach dropped. It was the girl I saw with Liam at the party, Anna.There was a smile plastered across her face.“Nicole, you must be Liam's girlfriend.” she said sweetly, but there was a venom beneath it that made my skin crawl. “We need to talk.”I stopped, crossing my arms. “About what?” I asked, trying to keep my tone polite.I was already pissed off seeing her.She leaned closer, lowering her voice so only I could hear. “Stay away from Liam.” Her tone was firm, almost like a warning. “He doesn’t love you. He’s just… using you to pass time. You think you mean something to him, but you don’t. Not like I do.”I felt heat rise in my chest. “What are you talking about? You just come here spouting trash, clearly you are jealous.” I retorted back at her.“I'm trying to save you from being heartbroken.” She scoffed.“Li
