Semua Bab Deadly Affair with My Brother In-Law : Bab 121 - Bab 130

Aurora’s POVI could see the worry in my mother’s eyes before she even spoke.“Aurora,” she said, stepping closer. “What are you planning?”I took a deep breath, my hands clenching at my sides. I had already made up my mind. There was no turning back now.“Mom,” I said firmly, looking her straight in the eyes. “I need to get that evidence that Patrick is holding.”Her brows furrowed in confusion. “But Dominic already—”“I know,” I cut her off. “Dominic made a deal with him, but Patrick will never keep his word. Even if Dominic gives him everything he’s demanding, he will still betray him.”I shook my head, frustration building up inside me. “I can’t just sit here and do nothing. This is my only chance to stop him. To stop Joanna. To make them pay for everything they’ve done to our family.”Mom’s face paled. She grabbed my arm tightly. “Aurora, you’re putting yourself in danger out there. What if Joanna or Isabella get to you first? Or worse—what if Patrick finds out what you’re up to?

 Aurora’s POVI pressed my back against the wall, my heart pounding so loudly I was afraid they’d hear it. Breathe, Aurora. Stay still.Patrick and Isabella were still talking, their voices low, filled with amusement and hunger."As in, you’re in such a hurry to leave with that file," Isabella teased, trailing her fingers down Patrick’s chest. “It must be very important for you.”Patrick smirked, tucking the file under his arm. “You have no idea.”Isabella wrapped her arms around his neck, pressing her body against him. “Then make me understand,” she whispered, her lips brushing against his.I rolled my eyes from my hiding spot. This woman never changes.Patrick didn’t resist. His grip tightened around Isabella’s waist, pulling her closer. Within seconds, his hands slid up her thighs, his breath ragged as he kissed her neck,

AURORA'S POV  No. I needed to hide.I scanned my surroundings, my eyes darting from door to door. One of them was slightly open.Without hesitation, I slipped inside and shut the door softly behind me, pressing my back against it.Seconds later, Isabella arrived.I could hear her heavy breathing outside. She was close. Too close.I stayed still, listening as she cursed under her breath.Then, silence.Was she waiting? Or had she left?I didn’t know. But I couldn’t move yet.I had to wait.I pressed my back against the door, my breath coming out in slow, steady beats. Isabella was still close. I could feel it.My heart pounded as I whispered to myself, "No matter what happens here today, I must not let Isabella find those flash drives with me. I have to hide them."I reached into my jacket, my fingers trembling slightly as I pulled out th

Aurora’s POVMy heart nearly stopped when I heard Patrick’s voice from the other side of the door.“Aurora, don’t waste my time! Get your damn ass out of there before I burn you down along with this building!”I pressed my hand over my mouth, trying to silence my heavy breathing. They wouldn’t really do it, would they?Then I heard Isabella’s voice.“Are you sure about this, Patrick?”“I said pour the petrol! She’s going to hell with this building.”My stomach dropped. They were serious.A sharp, strong smell filled my nostrils. Gasoline. They were really setting the place on fire.Think, Aurora! You have to get out of here!I looked around frantically. The fire alarm! If I could trigger it, the sprinklers might slow down the flames, and the emergency system might unlock some of the doors.I rushed to the desk, grabbing a chair and slamming it against the glass covering the alarm. The crash echoed through the room. I didn’t care anymore. I smashed the button hard.Nothing happened.Sh

Joanna’s POVJulie clutched the baby tightly, her eyes filled with fear and determination. “I will never let you go with this baby,” she hissed.I let out a slow chuckle, stepping closer. “Oh, Julie, don’t be so dramatic.”Tears welled in her eyes, but her grip on the baby only tightened. “You’ve already taken everything from me! You stole my inheritance, destroyed our family, and left me with nothing! You kept me away from Aurora, my own daughter, for years! And now you want to take her child too?” She shook her head furiously. “I will never let you have my grandchild!”I sighed, tilting my head. “You always did have a way of making yourself the victim, didn’t you?”Julie’s face twisted with anger. “You are the reason for everything! You lied, manipulated, and ruined my life. You wanted me gone, and you got what you wanted. But I won’t let you win this time. Not with Aurora’s baby.”I smirked, taking another step forward. “And how exactly do you plan to stop me, dear sister? You’re w
