All Chapters of MARRYING MY STEP-SISTER'S GROOM : Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

“You need to calm down Tyler.I cannot afford for Ethan to be suspicious about our affair, or else everything would be over.I have not checked our marriage documents yet—so I cannot be so sure he made me sign a prenup that day. I have to tread carefully.I’ve already spent torturous months with a mad man like that.”My heart pounded erratically against my chest.The air in my lungs non-existent as I listened to my voice play on the voice note.“I definitely cannot divorce him without taking some shares from the Blackwood to my name.Once I confirm that I did not sign a prenup, I’ll come up with a plan that would make him divorce me immediately.I cannot wait to be with you Tyler without hiding anymore.Gosh, I’ll finally get rid of Ethan.I love you baby, please just wait for me.”Jennifer’s lips curled up smugly, as the voice note finally finished playing.Bile rose up in my throat from dread.My eyes wide and my lips parted in shock as I stared at Tyler.I turned to face Ethan.An

The eager voice of the receptionist from earlier rang through the now silent reception room.Her words sounded genuine, almost as if she wanted me to be proud of her.I watched as Ethan’s back tensed.He halted on his steps the moment her voice came.After standing still for some seconds, he recovered, taking long strides out of the place.My fiery eyes turned back to face the reception area, burning with so much anger.Her misleading words had just ruined everything left for me.If Ethan still had an inkling of my innocence before.Her words just solidified Jennifer’s claims.That I was a liar, and I came here with the intention of spending the night with Tyler.She must have seen the rage which I held in my eyes, because she flinched the moment we locked eyes.Her lips parted to say something.Maybe to apologize for her loose mouth, but I barely cared.I needed to save my marriage first.I ran after Ethan, lucky to see the familiar face of one of his cars.He unlocked the door read

Ethan’s lips twisted darkly, but he said nothing.His eyes stared at me, bleeding with nothing but anger.“We’ll never come back from this, just know that, Leah,” he hissed softly.I stood still, watching as he slipped into his car.Reversing his wheels, he sped off into the darkness leaving a trail of dust behind.And leaving me, standing at the center of a dark parking lot in the middle of the night, with nothing hiding my nakedness but a hotel blanket.I had no idea how long I stood there.It could have been more hours than I had imagined, but I barely cared.My legs should have been hurting but still, I felt numb and could not feel anything.The cool air blew against my skin.My red hair scattered in disarray, and I could barely bring myself to care.What was the use either way?My entire life was ruined painfully.I had nowhere to go.A sleek black car drove to where I stood silently and calmly.But I barely noticed it:Not when he let out a blaring horn.Or when he parked before

My chest twisted almost as if I was being choked as I muttered softly.“I’m real, Ethan,” I said calmly.And it took every will in me not to break down into tears seeing his state.“No you are not!” He barked in rage, making me flinch.“Why can’t you just leave me alone, Leah!Why must you follow me every single place I go.In the office I see you, in the club I see you even in my head I see you.Why?Why must I see you everywhere?” He yelled, throwing the bottle across the floor.The thick glass bounced across the ground, till the bottle shattered.I looked sideways from him, trying to blink my tears away.I heard him pick up another bottle from the numerous options by his side, as he burst the cover open.The sounds were like daggers piercing through my fragile heart.And a tear slid down my cheeks, scorching hot as I sniffed.The noise coming from him immediately stilled the moment the sound left my lips.I felt him turn to face me.And then, his thick palm cradled my face.One lon

“What?” I gasped, my hands moving to the documents as I swiped it out of her fingers.My eyes read each line as fast as I could.My heart pounded erratically against my chest seeing the nurse had really told no lies. It was clearly written here, spouse—Jennifer, then signature requested beneath.“H…how did this happen?” I asked, my breathing uneven as I struggled to calm myself.My gaze moved up to the nurse who was watching me quietly.“Thi…this was a mistake.I’m Ethan’s wife,” I said, my fingers pointing directly at my chest.“Me—Leah Barnes Blackwood.I’m his one and only wife,” I pressed.My mind, unable to comprehend how Jennifer’s name had gotten here.“Unfortunately ma’am, according to this document, Ethan Blackwood is married to Jennifer.She signed the document as his spouse when he got here.And that man over there,” she paused, her hands stretched and pointed towards a guilty looking James.“He vouched for her, and told the hospital that Jennifer and Ethan Blackwood wer
