บททั้งหมดของ Seducing My Ex-husband's Brother : บทที่ 31 - บทที่ 40

Lake's hands trembled as he dropped his phone. The hospital had just called to inform him about the need to accelerate his mother's surgery. His fingers clenched. There weren't many options. Either he sold the house or the business, the money wouldn't even be enough for the loan not to talk about his mother's surgery. His whole income goes to the hospital, loans or bills. Throwing the scattered bills into his cabinet, he dressed up and left for the hospital. He signed in and proceeded to the ward. As soon as he pushed open the door, his heart broke in anticipation of seeing his mother looking lifeless as always. She had never been the same after his father died. His eyes widened as he spotted the empty bed and neatly tucked sheets. He panicked. Where was his mother? He rushed out of the room. His head spinning. He didn't dare think about the possibility as he rushed to the nurse at the front desk. The thought of losing his mother made his heart clench."Where is my mom?" he almost

Monica's eyes darted to Spencer and back to Liam. "What are you talking about?" "Shut up, Liam McKenzie." The old lady snapped, making Monica more curious about what they could be hiding. "No, she needs to know that Spencer doesn't love her, he is an obsessed fan that's sick in the head." The silence was nerve-racking. No one spoke, but eyes kept darting around. It seems everyone knew of the issue apart from Monica. Then Liam laughed. He seemed to be the only one enjoying all the tension. "You think I'm the monster here, huh?"he said, his eyes narrowed at Monica. "Has he shown you his dark side, the side he managed to keep locked away?" Monica couldn't help but steal a glance at the stiffened Spencer. He seemed lost in a daze. She had always denied it. The pictures couldn't even make her believe her fear, but hearing them from Liam crept her out. "He spent a year in an asylum because of his obsession with you, Monica." Her knees buckled, and she stumbled back a bit. They didn'

Monica stepped into Mo's Fashion Corporation, her heels clicking softly against the polished floor. The Atlanta Fashion Event was less than two weeks away, and every day felt more intense than the last. Her routine had become second nature—morning workouts, a strict skincare regimen, then straight to Mo’s Fashion Empire to rehearse runway walks with the other models. Lately, she’d noticed Angel keeping her distance, and honestly, she was relieved. Drama was the last thing she needed. She slipped into a sleek, fitted gown and joined the others on the practice floor. They were rehearsing the opening walk and refining their display strides. "Monica Banks," the secretary called, interrupting the rhythm. Monica glanced up. "The CEO wants to see you." A quiet groan escaped her lips as a few of the models turned, their whispers already starting—more rumors about her and the CEO. She rolled her eyes. She had been doing her best to keep her distance these past few days. All she w

Spencer and Monica stood staring at each other for a moment.She lifted her fingers and threaded them through his hair—it felt soft under her touch.He leaned in, trying to get more of it before it would go away."You look really exhausted. It’d be nice if you go shower and cool down, then we can talk," she offered gently.He nodded.His eyes drifted to her waist, and his face darkened as his grip tightened around her body.He didn’t smile. He just traced his fingers over every inch of her waist, down to her thighs.Monica gasped and turned a shade red. She couldn’t hide her embarrassment."Kitten..."He looked up. She shivered and turned away.Why was he making her feel so dirty-minded now?"You will wear what I design for you."He wasn’t smiling. He seemed so different from the guy a moment ago, making her want to press her thighs together."Jesus..." she quietly shivered.Was he always like this? This wasn’t the guy she thought she knew.One moment he was an attention-seeking freak

Lake blinked twice, then scowled at Max's smug expression."I would never do something like that.""Marry a man?"Lake rolled his eyes. "Marry you."Max gave a dramatic sigh and took a step towards Lake."You know, if you marry me, you don't have to worry about paying me, because as your husband, my money is yours."Lake swallowed, stunned by Max's closeness and words. He had never met a man so shameless.Max’s grin grew wider at Lake's uncomfortable look."Think about it, Cross." He paused and tilted his head down to Lake's height. "Spending a few million dollars will not leave a stain on your conscience because I will be your man."Lake froze for a moment, then scoffed. He wasn't really pleased with his words, but he was shocked that a billionaire playboy like Max Damian would even consider settling down with anyone at such a young age."I'm not falling for that, Damian. And I would never marry you to clear my debts."He took a step away from Max, who feigned a heartbroken look."Aw
