The Boss I Shouldn't Want, Now My Stepbrother Chapter 72
RhysandEvery once in a while, I am left speechless by my actions. Just like today, I had overslept.I, Rhysand Warner, had overslept, and no one had woken me up. The first thing I saw was sunlight bleeding past my curtains.Shit. I reached for my phone, and another expletive escaped my mouth. Past 9 a.m.I hadn't intended to stay up so late, much less talk to my father for more than five minutes, but last night had been different.For once, we hadn't argued about work or expectations. We'd sat by the pool, sipping aged scotch and talking about trivial things.My childhood, his. Old songs, and even a few stories about how he struggled to take care of me. Then he'd switched to Margaret, his love for her and how amazing she was. I couldn't remember the last time I had seen my father so emotional, so soft, like his marriage to Margaret had been the salvation he needed all along.Strangely, I was happy for him. Margaret was good for him, and I didn't regret the conversation. Not even as I

BridgetteI was losing my mind. I couldn't think or focus. My mind swirled at the thought of Rosa and Rhysand being in a relationship.Even their names matched, and I hated it."What's wrong with me!" I exhaled sharply, kicking away the stack of papers I had recently piled up after my first blowout.The mess was worse than before. Physically and mentally, my body felt heavy with the weight of my worries and hate.Hate? No—not hate, but jealousy. I hated that they could be together. That Rhysand could easily forget the kiss we shared.*The kiss you asked him to forget about,* a small voice echoed in my mind.I sighed and pushed myself up, then walked out of my office, unwilling to wallow, but wherever I went, the misery followed.I ignored Jennie's look of confusion and stormed down the hall toward the restroom.Not because I had to go, but because I simply needed somewhere to be, a motion to take my mind off things.Just as I reached for the door handle, I heard them.Two voices hidde

BridgetteExcept I already regretted acting that way. I should have just walked away the moment she'd stopped me—heck, I should have never left my office.As I walked back down, the piercing gaze and bright hall suddenly felt overwhelming, like I was walking down the hall of shame or something.Rosa's insistence that I couldn't see Rhysand made it all the worse. It was hard not to believe that they had something going on. No one would be that protective of someone they weren't dating.As the thought flashed by, I realized I was being biased. Rosa could have easily been doing her job. Rhysand could have ordered her not to let anyone in. But that didn't stop the hurt I felt.Halfway back to my office, I almost slammed into Tessa."Whoa," she said, steadying me. "Where's the fire?"I shook my head, avoiding her gaze, and tried to walk past, but she stepped into my path."Bridgette? Hey, look at me."I glanced up with a sigh, meeting her concerned gaze."Are you okay?" she asked. "You don

BridgetteJennie had been my secretary from the very beginning. She was good at her job, polite, and, best of all, minded her own business. Her presence in my office so early in the morning with that look in her eyes sent warning alarms through my head.But I schooled my expression, calling her in. "Yes, Jennie, is there something I can do for you?"She hesitated before stepping closer, her lips tugged into a frown. "I don't know if you've heard the rumors."I arched my brows, leaning back in my seat. "About Rhysand and his secretary?"She nodded, squeezing her hands."I just did," I said, picking up a pen. "What of it?""Yes, that and..." she confirmed before trailing off, as though unsure how to continue."Spit it out, Jennie. I don't have time for silly rumors."She shook her head. "There's nothing silly about these rumors, Ms. Hayes. It's quite the opposite. There might be some truth to it, ma'am.""What do you mean?" I asked, my heart skipping a beat."You might not know this, bu

BridgetteThe steady stream of sunlight spilled into my room, casting the soft hues of lavender and white in a warm tone. The warmth of the morning sun caressed my skin, and I found myself smiling.I turned toward the ceiling and stretched, the sound of bones popping echoing through the room, a soft sigh escaping my lips. It took only a minute for me to realize that I felt wonderful.There was no pain. No aches. Nothing. Not even the consistent pounding in my head from sleepless nights and blue screen usage. I felt fine. More than fine—I felt great, and it was all thanks to Rhysand.At the thought of his name, I flushed with embarrassment, jumping out of bed as the scene from yesterday flashed in my mind. The harsh words I had said and my rude actions. I had been horrible to him even when he'd meant no harm to me."What an idiot," I muttered, rushing toward the bathroom. Rhysand's forced day off that he'd shoved on me had pissed me off. I hated that he could order me around without li

RhysandI made my way to my room and shut the door behind me. Leaning against the closed door, I willed my beating heart to calm down. The talk with Margaret had left me feeling worse than before.Things between us had been borderline hostile, which was solely my fault. Margaret had shown me nothing but kindness and understanding, but my anger toward Sandra's betrayal had left me with unresolved trauma.Our talk tonight had unveiled a part of her I had been pushing away for far too long. Margaret meant me no harm—there was a possibility that she liked me and, to a certain degree, understood me. The thought left me reeling with guilt that I couldn't explain."Ahhh, I don't want to think about this," I exhaled, pushing away from the door as my hand tugged at my tie.Why wasn't Margaret a bitch, or even a bit annoying? I wouldn't be feeling so shitty for having such feelings for her child.But then, if she was even half as terrible as my mother, she never would have gotten close to my fa
