Want Me Back? Ask My Brothers First Ch084: The Bait
~NATE~ “I’m sorry, Ava. I don’t think I can make it.” I gently pry her hand off my arm. The day has been long and exhausting, and the last thing I want right now is any form of physical contact. All I need is rest. Ava’s face falls immediately. Her eyes turn glassy with disappointment. “Can’t you at least try for me? I really want you to finally meet them.” A flicker of guilt rises in my chest, but I push it down. Tomorrow is filled with important meetings I cannot cancel. “Next time,” I say firmly. “I promise. It’s already late and I’m exhausted. You should head home. We’ll talk tomorrow.” “Nate…” She calls after me as I release her hand and continue toward the house, but I do not look back. I have no energy left for drama tonight. The moment I step inside, the silence of the empty mansion hits me harder than usual. The place feels dry, cold, and strangely hollow. A quiet void settles in the center of my chest. I remember the days when Lori would hurry down
Want Me Back? Ask My Brothers First CH083: The Ghost of Lori
~AVA~“Hiii girls!”I greet them with bright excitement the moment I reach the table where my five closest friends are already seated. They pause their chatter, rise from their chairs, and pull me into warm hugs and air kisses on both cheeks.“Hey, girlie!”“Been a while, Ava.”A minute later we all settle back into our seats. I carefully position the bouquet of fresh flowers in my hand so that it is impossible for them to miss.Lisa gives me a teasing look over the rim of her glass.“Don’t tell me those are from your man.”“Of course they are.” I flash my brightest smile, lying through my teeth without a single flicker of guilt. “Who else would it be?”The other girls make soft admiring sounds.“I envy you so much, Ava,” Olivia says, shaking her head. “Everything always works out perfectly for you. You’re from a wealthy family where your cousins treat you like a priceless princess. You attended the best art school, and now you have the most devoted man who’s literally obsessed with

~AVA~“Hi, Lisa. I’m so sorry for the delay. I’m already on my way. You girls can go ahead and order without me.”I speak into the phone from the back seat of my car while my driver navigates the evening traffic. Lisa’s voice comes through the speaker, slightly impatient. “Alright, but please hurry up.”The call ends, and the worry that has been sitting heavily in my chest all evening returns with full force.I know my friends too well. The moment I sit down, they will start asking what Nate has gifted me recently. And this time… I have nothing to show.Lately he has been far too “busy.” Either buried in work or tangled up in yet another one of Lori’s annoying dramas. The thought alone makes irritation burn under my skin.Why can’t that bitch just disappear from our lives for good?At least she is getting remarried to one of her loser men. That should finally speed up the divorce.Still…A frown pulls at my forehead as yesterday’s memory flashes through my mind. The way Nate reacte
Want Me Back? Ask My Brothers First Ch081: Twisted Remarriage
~NATE~“Brother! Brother!” The door of my office bursts open without warning. I look up from the tablet in my hand just as Bentley rushes inside, Ava trailing calmly behind her. Bentley is panting, her eyes wide with the kind of glee that only appears when she thinks she has something devastating to report.“You wouldn’t believe what we saw today!” She exclaims, already unlocking her phone and scrolling furiously. Before I can even respond, she practically shoves the screen in my face.I take the phone from her and stare at the image.Lori is standing inside a shop, a large garment bag in her hands. The store logo in the background is unmistakable.A bridal shop.A deep crease forms between my brows.“Brother, do you know that Lori is getting remarried?” Bentley sneers.The tablet nearly slips from my other hand.“What did you just say?”Ava steps forward, her voice calm and measured in contrast to Bentley’s excitement.“What Bentley is trying to say is that when we crossed paths w

~LORETTE~“What’s today’s date, Lori?” Marcus asks after we have spent the entire evening catching up on his years abroad and the cruise workshop. Of course, I carefully leave out the dress disaster and the pool incident.“July 15th.” I answer.Marcus immediately looks toward Ella and Lucas.“Jesus. Don’t tell me you two forgot your own wedding anniversary. It’s exactly one week away.”Everyone gasps at the same time, exchanging stunned glances.I laugh in disbelief. “Wait… you actually forgot?”Ella scratches the back of her neck awkwardly. “In my defence, I’ve been really busy with… stuff.”Lucas clears his throat. “Work has been hectic.”Hunter cuts in, looking completely serious. “Whatever. There’s no way in hell we’re missing your anniversary. That would ruin the rest of my year.”Jace nods firmly beside him.Marcus leans forward. “So what’s the plan? Are we hosting a huge ball and inviting business partners or—”Lucas suddenly clears his throat. At the same time, Jace ‘accide

~LORETTE~I raise a brow as the security guard bows slightly toward Marcus. Does this man actually know him?For a brief second, Marcus’s face turns slightly ashen. Then a calm, polite smile replaces the tension.“I just got back today,” he says smoothly. “Please give my regards to your boss. I’ll check in on him later.”A flicker of confusion crosses the guard’s face, but Marcus has already rolled the window up and is driving away before the man can ask anything else.He glances at me with an apologetic smile.“Sorry about that. I know the owner of that estate. We used to work at the same hospital years ago. That’s why the security recognized me.”“Oh.” I nod, the confusion finally melting away. For a moment I had nearly gotten a heart attack thinking something was off.Within minutes we pull up in front of the house. The second Hunter and Jace see Marcus step out of the car, they practically lurch themselves at him. The two of them crash into him with such force that Marcus stumbl

~LORETTE~ “A divorce agreement?” Lucas’s frown deepens, as if I had just spoken in a foreign language. “What do you need that for?” The moment the words leave his mouth, regret hits me like a tornado. Instant shame washes over me, and I mentally slap myself for being so careless. Stupid. Stupid,
Want Me Back? Ask My Brothers First CH003: This Time, I Surrender
~LORETTE~ “Hospital?” Lucas’s voice immediately fills with heavy worry. “What happened? Are you okay, Lori?” “I got into an accident,” I reply quietly, not having the energy to explain more. We’re not close enough for that. “Oh God, Lori…” The panic in his voice grows. “Were you badly injured? Pl

~LORETTE~ “No.” I whisper, my voice thick with tears as I search into the faces of the doctors, desperately hoping they are kidding. But their faces remain full of remorse and pity. They are not joking. “No, no, no. God, please no!” I break down completely, sobbing hard. My bandaged arm and leg
Want Me Back? Ask My Brothers First CH001: First Love
~LORETTE~ “Help me, please… my baby…” I choke out in my wrecked car, drenched in my blood, hoping somebody would hear me. But only cold silence greets me. I have just been involved in an accident on my way home from my prenatal checkup. One second, I was smiling like the most contented woman ali
