Semua Bab An Affair With My Brother In Law: Bab 1 - Bab 9

I found myself in front of a bar close to the mansion. I thought about how I actually needed a drink especially after the long day I had just had. I walked into the bar and it was the typical bar setting. Couples were already booed up, The heartbroken were having their whiskey at the bar while the men celebrating were having karaoke sessions. I couldn’t help but watch them fool theirselves singing. I hadn’t gone for a karaoke session ever since the days of college. I sat on the high stool that was facing the female bartender. “What can I get you sweetheart?” She said with a smile as she shook the container of her cocktail. “You tell me. I was forced into a marriage this evening only for me to find my new husband sleeping with another woman,” I said and placed my hand on my cheek. “Oh honey, let me whip out some vodka for you,” She said with a worried look. “No ice please,” I said, then gave a smile. I couldn’t wait to feel the buzz of the alcohol in me. I watched the

The day had finally come. Madam Hildegard’s birthday party. I was definitely nervous but I wanted this long awaited day to pass. “Honey, I got you a gift,” Matthew said as he walked into our room. “Really, what is it?” I asked with a smile as I got up from our bed. All of a sudden he brought out a box and opened it, revealing the most pretty diamond necklace that I had ever seen. “Aww Matthew thank you,” I said as I threw my arms around him for a hug. Our relationship took a drastic change ever since the night that we had sex. He got my dad a nice apartment, kept on gifting me and constantly reassuring me about his love for me. His approach to get me to be his wife was indeed awful, but he spent his days in our marriage proving he loved me. Everything was going so great for us that I had partially forgotten about him cheating on me. “All set,” He said as clipped the hook of the necklace around me. “You look splendid darling,” He said as he spun me around admiring

I stared at Victoria for a moment, her words echoing in my mind: “You should really consider watching your back.” I clenched my fists at my sides, trying to suppress the surge of anger bubbling up inside me. But I couldn’t hold back anymore.“Who the hell do you think you are?” I snapped, my voice trembling with rage. “You have no right to tell me what I can or cannot do. This isn’t some game where you get to make the rules.”Victoria turned back to face me, her lips curling into a wicked smile. “Oh, darling,” she said, her tone dripping with condescension, “I’m not telling you what to do. I’m giving you a warning. A little heads-up, if you will. I know how this family operates, and trust me, they don’t take kindly to women like you who think they can weasel their way into their good graces.”Her words felt like a slap across the face, but I refused to let her see how much they hurt. Instead, I lifted my chin defiantly. “That’s where you’re wrong,” I said through gritted teeth. “I’m n

Jordan barely had time to blink before Matthew's fist collided with his jaw. The sound of the punch echoed through the hospital room, and for a split second, everything went silent. My heart skipped a beat as Jordan stumbled back, eyes flashing with anger."You son of a—!" Jordan growled as he regained his balance, ready to lunge at Matthew.But before he could throw a punch, Daniel leapt between them, his hands pushing both men apart. "Enough!" Daniel barked, his voice ringing with authority. "This isn’t the time or the place for this.”I stood there, frozen, as the tension between the men crackled in the air. Matthew's chest heaved with anger, his face flushed red. Jordan, despite his calm exterior earlier, now looked ready to fight. I could feel the panic rising inside me as I tried to figure out what to do.“Both of you, stop this right now!” Madam Hildegard’s voice cut through the chaos. Her eyes were blazing with fury as she looked between her sons and her lover. “I love Jordan,
