The Many Shades Of My Brother-in-law Chapter 23 (ALICE’s POV)
The sterile lights in Room 312 buzzed overhead like judgmental whispers. I sat on the examination table, arms crossed, while the doctor, a silver-haired man with kind eyes and a clipboard reviewed the preliminary scans and bloodwork. Mum paced near the window, her designer heels clicking impatiently against the tile. “Everything looks perfectly normal, Mrs. Ashbourne,” the doctor said, addressing Mum more than me. He adjusted his glasses. “Alice is in excellent health. No hormonal imbalances, no underlying issues that would prevent conception. However, for a full fertility assessment on the couple, Mr. Tad Davenhall will need to come in himself for his own check-up. These things work best when both partners are evaluated.” Mum’s perfectly arched brows shot up. “You’re saying there’s nothing wrong with her?” “Nothing at all,” the doctor confirmed, smiling politely at me. “In fact, she’s quite healthy. Stress might be a factor, but medically? She’s ready if and when the time

The cool afternoon air hit my face as the security guards hauled me out of the boutique like I was some criminal. My heels scraped against the pavement, and I kept struggling, my silk blouse twisting under their rough grip.“Stop this! Let me go!” I shouted, drawing startled glances from a few pedestrians on the street. My heart hammered against my ribs. This couldn’t be happening. Not in broad daylight. Not from my own mother.Mum didn’t even look back. She marched ahead, her designer coat flapping behind her like a cape of pure entitlement. “Keep moving. You’re making a scene for no reason.”One of the guards tightened his hold on my arm, nearly lifting me off the ground as they shoved me toward a black SUV parked illegally at the curb. I managed to wrench one arm free for a second and grabbed the doorframe, refusing to get in.“Mum, listen to me,” I said through gritted teeth. “This is kidnapping. I will call the police. I swear I will.”She finally turned, her perfectly painted

I stared down at the envelope the man had slipped onto my table in the quiet corner of the upscale restaurant. The one from M. My appetite vanished as I opened it and pulled out the photograph. There they were, Tad and Faye, locked in a heated hug on the rooftop the night of my recovery party. His hands gripped her waist, her lips pressed against his neck under the glow of the city lights. The image had been seared into my brain ever since. I hadn’t told anyone about it, not yet. But it played on repeat in my mind, stoking my anger and strengthening my resolve. How could I have been blind to it ?I tucked the photo away, paid the bill quickly, and left the restaurant, my thoughts still swirling.My phone rang as I drove home after leaving Elliot at the hospital. It was Mum. I answered on speaker, gripping the wheel tighter.“Alice, darling! Since you’re fully recovered now, we’ve scheduled the hospital appointment for tomorrow. You and Tad can finally proceed with giving me that

I ended the call and turned back to the room.Alice was watching me from the bedside, eyes curious and careful. “Is everything alright?”“Work,” I said simply.She held my gaze for a moment like she was deciding whether to push it. Then she looked at Elliot and let it go.The doctors arrived minutes later, two of them, moving efficiently around the bed, checking monitors, reviewing charts, shining a light into Elliot’s eyes while he endured it all with the expression of someone who found the entire process deeply beneath him.“How is he?” Alice asked, standing close, arms folded tightly across her chest.The senior doctor looked up from his clipboard. “Honestly Mrs. Davenhall, the fact that he’s conscious at all is remarkable. We weren’t expecting this. Not this soon.” He paused, choosing his next words carefully. “His condition remains critical but stable. The heart is still very weak and now that he’s awake we’ll need to run a full new round of tests before we can determine next s

Vincent called at seven sharp.“The concrete wasn’t structural failure,” he said. “Someone was on that rooftop. We have a partial image, male, heavyset, left the access point three minutes before it came down. This was planned before the party started.”“Find him,” I said and ended the call.I arrived at Ashbourne Medical Facility at half past nine the way I always did different name at the front desk with no driver in sight. The fourth floor nurses knew my face by now and knew better than to ask questions.Elliot’s room was quiet. I pulled the chair to its usual spot, opened my book and read in the silence.Twenty minutes passed before the door opened behind me.I didn’t turn around immediately. I recognized the footsteps, light and the faint vanilla scent that came with them.I turned.Alice stood in the doorway, bag halfway off her shoulder, jade eyes fixed on me with an expression she was working very hard to keep neutral.“Timothy?” she said carefully.“Mrs. Davenhall,” I repli

The sound ripped through the night and the scream left my throat before I could stop it.I watched the concrete come down and crush Timothy's car like it was nothing, glass scattering across the driveway, the roof caving completely inward and my body moved before my brain caught up. I ran to him,

The countdown hit three and I made my decision.I grabbed Alice's arm, moved her into the corner behind the bookshelf and opened the door myself just as her mother's hand landed on the handle from the other side. The woman nearly crashed straight into my chest.She stumbled back with a sharp gasp.

The gasp barely formed before his hand covered my mouth and my back met the wall.His chest pressed flush against mine and I felt all of him, broad, solid, warm in a way that short-circuited every coherent thought I had. His free arm braced behind my head and his amber eyes cut straight past me to

“You saw something… didn’t you?”Faye’s voice stayed calm, but her eyes remained fixed on me too carefully.My heartbeat slammed painfully against my ribs.Then slowly…I smiled.“Something?” I laughed softly. “Please. You sound guilty, sister.”Faye’s expression barely shifted, but I caught it.Tha
