TRADING MY EX FOR HIS STEP BROTHER YOU HAD MY DAD ARRESTED?
CHAPTER 175: YOU HAD MY DAD ARRESTED?KIMBERLY:I was still half-asleep when the sound of someone knocking on our front door woke me from sleep.At first, I thought maybe it was a delivery, but then I heard a maid’s voice from the hallway.“Ma’am,” she said softly when I opened the door. “Your mom and sister are waiting downstairs.”That woke me completely. I sat there, blinking in confusion. My mom and Tess? At this hour? They never came here this early. Actually, my mom hadn’t stepped foot here since after Damien and I signed our marriage license. My chest tightened. Something wasn’t right.I reached over and tapped Damien on the arm. He was still stretched out, sleeping peacefully.“Baby,” I whispered, nudging him again. “Wake up. My family’s here.”He opened his eyes slowly, gave me that lazy morning smile, then rubbed his face. “What family?”“My mom and Tess. They’re downstairs waiting.”His smile faded a little. He sat up, swung his legs over the bed. “Hmm. Figures.”I squinted
TRADING MY EX FOR HIS STEP BROTHER GETTING JAMES WALKER ARRESTED
CHAPTER 116; GETTING JAMES WALKER ARRESTED DAMIEN:I was hunched over some files in my office, going through contracts for the new fashion line, when a knock came at the door.“Yeah, come in,” I called, not bothering to look up.The door opened and Roy stepped inside, his usual stone-cold face giving nothing away. But I could tell by the way he shut the door behind him and locked it that this wasn’t just a casual update.“What’s up?” I asked, dropping my pen and leaning back in my chair.Roy walked forward and set a thick brown folder on my desk. “Boss, I’ve completed the investigation into all the recent incidents—the SUV explosion, the car ramming into yours, the kidnapping attempt while you and madam were jogging. All fingers point at one man.”I raised a brow. I had a suspect in mind but I wanted him to say it. “Who?”He met my eyes. “James Walker.”That's Kim’s father, as you guys may already know.I wasn’t shocked at all. The man had always been a snake in the grass. But heari
TRADING MY EX FOR HIS STEP BROTHER THE PEACE OFFERING
CHAPTER 115: THE PEACE OFFERING KIMBERLY:I woke up to the sound of drawers shutting and soft footsteps moving around the room. I rubbed my eyes, squinting against the light coming through the curtains. My hand reached for Damien’s side of the bed, but it was already cold.Sitting up, I found him fully dressed. He wore dark gray suit, crisp white shirt, and his tie was perfectly knotted. He looked like he was about to step out the door.I frowned, obviously surprised. “You didn’t wake me?”He turned instantly, flashing that smile that always made my chest soften, but this time I didn’t melt. “Good morning, sleepyhead.”“Good morning?” I muttered, folding my arms. “Is that all you’ve got to say? You didn’t think maybe I’d want to get ready with you? Like we always do?”He came over without missing a beat, lowering himself onto the bed next to me. His lips brushed mine in a quick kiss, then he slipped his hand over mine, caressing gently.“Baby,” he said in that calm tone he used when
TRADING MY EX FOR HIS STEP BROTHER YOU THINK I’D PLAN MY OWN KIDNAPPING?
CHAPTER 114: YOU THINK I’D PLAN MY OWN KIDNAPPING?DAMIEN:As I came out of officer Harris' office and shut the door behind me, my phone buzzed. It was a text from Roy: “Guards already at the gate, boss.” Good. I knew the minute I stepped out of Officer Harris’ office that the damn reporters would smell blood and camp outside like vultures.When I finally stepped out in the open, flash after flash blinded me. Cameras, mics, cell phones, all shoved toward me like weapons.“Mr. Carter! Is it true you fired at two unarmed men?”“Did your wife fake the attack for attention?”“Are you worried about lawsuits, Mr. Carter?”Their voices overlapped, nasty and greedy.I didn’t even blink. My guards formed a tight wall around me, muscling the press back, arms out, voices sharp. I just kept walking, not a single word leaving my lips. My driver had the car door open before I reached the curb. I slid into the back seat, slammed the door shut, and leaned back.The reporters pressed their faces aga
TRADING MY EX FOR HIS STEP BROTHER GIVING A FORMAL STATEMENT
CHAPTER 113: GIVING A FORMAL STATEMENT DAMIEN:The car was dead silent as we headed home, except for the hum of the engine. Kim kept stealing worried glances at me while I had the phone pressed to my ear.“Officer Harris,” I said the moment he picked up. “It’s Damien Carter. We just got ambushed.”There was a pause on his end, before he respondedt, his voice sharp and alert. “Where are you right now, Mr. Carter?”“In my car. My men are driving us back to the estate. But listen carefully, I had to act in self-defense. Two men tried to drag my wife into a car. I neutralized them. They’re alive, but wounded.”“Neutralized,” Harris repeated, almost like he was making sure he heard me right.“I shot them in their arms and legs,” I clarified flatly. “Close-range. They’ll live.”There was a faint shuffle of papers through the phone before Harris spoke again. “I see. Well, Mr. Carter, considering shots were fired, I’ll need you to come down to the station and give a formal statement. It’s o
TRADING MY EX FOR HIS STEP BROTHER KEEPING KIM SAFE
CHAPTER 112: KEEPING KIM SAFE KIMBERLY:I woke up to the sound of Damien’s voice in my ear.“Babe, wake up. Let’s go jogging. Early morning, fresh air is the perfect way to start the day.”I groaned and pulled the duvet over my head. “Five more minutes.”“Nope,” he chuckled, tugging at the duvet. “Come on, sleepyhead. You need to keep fit. You gotta look your best on our wedding day.”“I’m already beautiful,” I mumbled from under the covers, curling up like a ball.“You are,” he admitted, his voice softer, “but we’re still jogging.”Before I could protest again, he yanked the duvet right off me. Cold air hit my skin, making me squeal. “Damien!”He laughed like a little boy and leaned down, wiggling his fingers against my sides. I burst into uncontrollable laughter.“Stop—stop! Damien! Please!” I giggled so hard I couldn’t even breathe. He moved his hands down to my toes, tickling mercilessly.“No mercy,” he teased, his grin wicked.“Okay! I’ll go! I’ll go jogging!” I cried between la
