All Chapters of Stepbrother, I Have A Secret: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

“You can’t change a man who’s not willing to be tamed in the first place.” Trevor’s word echoed in my ears.However, I was too wrecked to utter a single word, I couldn’t even look at him as my gaze seemed lock on the screen. He let out a sigh before he carefully took his phone from my weakening hands. I probably looked stupid in front of him right now. From a feisty cat a few minutes ago to a foolish kitten who suddenly lost all her courage to make a firm stand. Just one clip and I felt like I’ve lost my remaining cards.It was a big slap to me, a painful reminder that I must stay on my league and accept things completely because deep inside, I know there’s still glint of hope in me and silently, I was wishing… waiting for him to come back and fight for me cuz he knew that I could never do the first move. I couldn’t get rid of him because my heart foolishly hoped that he’s somehow, it wasn’t just lust for him and he seriously meant all those words and actions that were always the caus

“How long have you been standing there?” Trevor questioned his son, his voice sounded cold and intimidating. Atlas gazed at his father with the same level of coldness freezing his eyes.“Just enough for the baby part.” He uttered. “So…” his deep set of icy pairs bore into mine. I swallowed as I blinked before I looked away with intention. But then, he aggressively walked towards my direction! It literally alerted everyone, especially his father who was fast enough to block him and then there’s Duke who pulled me to his arms, as if trying to protect me from any harm Atlas could bring. “You stubborn man, stay where you are!” Trevor thundered. “Everybody against me, huh?” Atlas chuckled dryly. I bit my lip as I felt a quick kick in my heart. Duke’s arms were still wrapped around my arms. I dared to move just to take a quick glance at Atlas but then, immediately regretted it after I saw the glooming darkness in his eyes, something in his expression told me that he was already murderin

If there’s one thing I’d surely regret in this life, that’s when I knew I could’ve prevented it from happening but instead, I made him go for it. Hence, he didn’t attend to my wedding. Was he drunk? Did he perhaps see it coming? Was it… a suicidal stunt?Oh, God. You’re really a damn big idiot, Cameron.“Hey, Bev!” Duke called but I intended to ignore him to follow Rainer, Atlas’ cousin who was rushing to their SUV together with other Camerons. “You goin’?” Trevor asked as I leveled his steps. “Hell, yes.” So that if I happen to know how horrible it got him, I’d have my reason to beat my own self at home.I never looked back at any of the Howard who kept on calling me to go back and stay with my groom. Fuck that! I didn’t marry him just to be his sidekick. Then, I saw Hailee who gave me a supportive nod. I nodded back and slid myself inside the van, mom was already sitting in there beside Trevor whose expression can’t be fathomed. Everybody was silent in the car and only the sound

SIX YEARS LATERThe world won’t stop revolving for you or for everyone. Whether we like it or not, we have to adapt to the wheel of time for it doesn’t wait nor adjust for anyone. Everything happens for a reason, that’s for sure. And every change means a new beginning, a fresh start to claim.“Mommy, you’re here!” A sweet tiny voice of a girl welcomed me as soon as I opened the door.I completely entered myself inside the house to meet my ever lovely daughter with those pretty turquoise doe eyes that she totally got from her father’s genes. There’s no doubt about it. She may look like the mini version of me but her eyes will always be the highlight of her facial features. I’m honestly afraid they could never go unnoticed.“How’s my Adriana?” despite my aching muscles, I immediately ran towards her with open arms. She was giggling cutely as she threw her little body to me. She’s too short for a six years old kid, I must tell. Also, a bit skinny too but I have no problem with any of th

“Bev, I’ll drop the call now. Deal with that.” Hail said in the other line.“Yeah. Bye…” and she ended it. I sighed and set my phone aside before I faced Ria again.She looked so amused while gazing at the television screen, admiring her father’s immaculate features. “I can’t believe he’s on TV right now! Is he somehow popular? And it’s awesome to think he has the same surname as grandpa Trev! Is he a relative, mommy?” continuous questions of the very curious Ria.Now, she turned her head completely to face me, looking so eager to get the answers from my mouth. I felt torn. Silently, I took the remote and turned off the TV. Her expression soured as if she was so ready to complain but chose to stop herself. I moved closely and tucked some strands of her hair that were almost covering her eyes. “Are you really that curious about him, hmm?” “Yes! I feel like he’s an amazing person! Besides, I still owe him this cute huggable stuff!” She giggled as she pulled the teddy bear and tried t
