All Chapters of Forbidden Desires: Falling For My Fiance's Brother: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

The explosion had torn through the night like a roaring beast, swallowing the speedboat in a fiery inferno. Flames licked the sky, smoke choked the air, and the sea churned wildly beneath the stars. But amid the chaos and destruction, something—or someone—was cast into the cold, dark water. Devon’s body slipped beneath the surface, limp and drifting. The world around him blurred, the roar of the blast fading into a distant echo as the icy water closed over his head. His lungs screamed for air, but his mind slipped away into darkness, the waves carrying him further from the life he had fought to protect. Hours passed—or maybe only minutes—before the cold sea finally surrendered him to a quiet shore hidden away from prying eyes. The first to find him was an old fisherman, a man whose weathered face spoke of decades spent wrestling the unpredictable sea. He had been pulling his nets when a strange shape caught his eye—a figure washed up on the riverbank, motionless. The fisherman hur

The hospital corridors felt colder without Devon. Annabelle sat quietly in her room, the sterile walls closing in like a cage she couldn’t escape. Her body was healing, slowly but surely, yet the ache in her heart remained raw and relentless. Camille lay asleep beside her, exhausted from days filled with worry and whispered prayers. The child’s small hand curled around Annabelle’s fingers, grounding her in a world that felt increasingly uncertain. Rose stood by the window, watching the city below. The streets bustled with life, but beneath the surface, tension simmered. The explosion at the harbor had left scars deeper than the physical ones Annabelle bore. The city was restless, afraid, waiting for the next move in a game that felt increasingly perilous. Rose turned from the window and approached the bed, her eyes soft but resolute. “Annabelle, you’re stronger than you know. You’ve been through so much already.” Annabelle’s gaze met hers, gratitude flickering through the exhausti

The sun was just beginning its slow crawl across the sky when Devon rose from the rough cot in the small room where he’d spent weeks recovering. His body was stronger now, his muscles no longer trembling with weakness, though the scars and aches reminded him of the battle that had brought him here. More pressing than physical wounds, however, was the storm brewing in his mind. Li sat calmly across from him, the morning light casting gentle shadows on the deep lines etched into his weathered face. Today’s training session would be different—more than just physical exercises or meditative breathing. It was time for Devon to understand what came next. “You have healed well,” Li said quietly. “But your fight is far from over. You must go now, but not unprepared.” Devon nodded. “I understand. You said I need to leave the country, but… how? I have no papers, no identity outside this place.” Li’s eyes gleamed with a mixture of wisdom and caution. “I have contacts from the past—friends wh

Devon had never been a man accustomed to the crowds, the noise, and the constant jostle of public transportation. For years, his life had revolved around control—precision, secrecy, and an ever-watchful vigilance. The hum of engines, the chatter of strangers, the unpredictable flow of people—all of it was foreign, uncomfortable. But now, there was no choice.From the moment he stepped onto the rattling bus that carried him from the small village to the sprawling airport, Devon felt the weight of a thousand eyes—real or imagined—pressing in. He kept his hood low, eyes scanning, muscles tensed, every sense alert for threats. The old man’s lessons about blending into shadows echoed in his mind, but here, surrounded by faceless crowds, Devon struggled to disappear.The bus stopped frequently, and each time the doors opened, fresh faces streamed in. The scent of coffee, the scrape of shoes against worn flooring, the muffled phone conversations—none of it was familiar. He found it hard to b

The sun shone brightly over New York City, casting warm golden rays through the sprawling streets. For once, Annabelle allowed herself to step away from the weight of her responsibilities, determined to bring a moment of joy back into her daughter Camille’s life. Rose, ever the steady companion and guardian, was right beside them, her presence a comforting shield from the harsh realities they’d all faced. They started the day with a simple plan: forget the shadows, even if just for a few hours. --- Their morning was filled with laughter and lightness as they wandered through bustling shops, the vibrant colors and lively chatter lifting Camille’s spirits bit by bit. Annabelle watched with a soft smile as Camille tried on hats, twirling in front of the mirror with a carefree abandon that seemed almost foreign to her. Rose gently reminded them to take breaks, making sure Camille stayed hydrated and rested, always attentive but allowing the young girl space to breathe. --- After a l
