Semua Bab Ex, Your brother is now my husband: Bab 11 - Bab 20

Leo sat on the edge of his bed, a picture of calmness that belied the turmoil swirling within. As he gazed into the distance, his mind drifted to memories both cherished and painful. Chloe entered the room, her expression a mixture of concern and curiosity. “What was all that about? I have never seen you like that before. Who is she?” Her probing question hung in the air, heavy with unspoken emotions. The mention of the mysterious woman stirred something deep within Leo. He hesitated, the weight of his past pressing down on him. “She was my fiancee,” he finally replied, his voice steady yet tinged with sorrow. “She ran away with my friend, who was also my assistant at the time.” The revelation struck Chloe like a thunderclap. She had vague recollections of the woman from years ago, memories shrouded in the innocence of childhood. Chloe’s mind raced, piecing together fragments of a story long buried. Who was this woman that could so easily disrupt the fabric of their lives? What had t

Chloe's mind drifted back to those early days, her heart tightening as she remembered the intense pressure and hostility she faced after that fateful celebratory dinner. Vivian’s office was an intimidating space—glass walls, sleek furniture, and walls adorned with framed sketches of her world-renowned designs. It was a shrine to a woman who had conquered the fashion world, and Chloe was walking into it as an unwanted intruder.From the moment Chloe stepped into the design department, the whispers started. "Who is she to have the CEO’s attention?" "She must know someone important." The air was thick with envy, and it was impossible to ignore the glares. Some saw her as a threat, while others thought she was simply lucky. Chloe, however, felt anything but fortunate.Vivian had been cold and distant, barely acknowledging Chloe except to assign her tedious tasks. Every day was a challenge, not because of the work itself, but because of the constant undermining. Designs she worked hard on

Chloe's heart raced as she stared down at Leo, who was still on one knee, holding out a ring. The soft glow of candlelight flickered around them, illuminating his face, which was filled with a sincerity that both warmed and terrified her. It wasn’t that she didn’t care for him—somewhere along the way, she had developed feelings for Leo, deeper than she ever expected. But this? A proposal? It felt like too much, too fast.Leo remained patient, his steady gaze never wavering. “Chloe,” he said gently, “I know this seems sudden. But I’ve known you far longer than you realize. There’s something about you that has always drawn me in, even before you walked into my company.”Chloe swallowed hard, memories of Ryan—the man she had once loved and trusted—flooding back. He had made promises too, promises that had ended in betrayal and heartache. She had vowed never to let herself fall that deeply again, to never be vulnerable like that. And now Leo, the man who had been her protector, her confid

" What is this, you are drunk? I have never seen you like this" she held the heavy man and dragged him on the floor to her bathroom. She didnt have much time to pamper him. Looking at him, he seemed to have been drugged, he was holding her inappropriately and she was afraid he may do something to her that they both would regret. She was not ready for a sexual relationship with him yet. The best way was to help him sober up. He has been to her apartment before but he never slept there that was the first time he was spendin the night.His personal driver Raphael was standing down stairs at the packing after sendign him upstairs. He was not sure if he was spendin the night but according to hs tate,he was sure he will have to relieve himself and only Chloe could help. What he didnt know waht his boss was passing through hell being showered on the bathroom floor with cold ice water. Chloe filled the bathtub with cold water and put in lots of ice cubes to make it even colderAt the end of

Chloe nodded, but her thoughts were still tangled. She couldn't shake the feeling that Melissa was only getting started. "What if this is just the beginning? She's not going to give up, Leo. Also we dont know what her plans are. This woman is crazy"Leo's jaw clenched, his protective instincts flaring. "Let her try. She can’t break us. And I'll make sure she’s held accountable for everything she’s done."The determination in his voice sent a wave of relief through Chloe. She believed in Leo, but Melissa was powerful—and dangerously obsessed. As they discussed their next steps, a knock came at the door."Leo, there's something you need to see," said Raphael, one of Leo's trusted aides. He entered the room, tablet in hand, and showed them the latest headlines. The media was spinning a full narrative about Leo and Melissa's supposed relationship, speculating on wedding plans based on the ring Leo had purchased.Leo's eyes darkened as he scanned the article. "This is ridiculous. I bought
