Married To My Ex-husband's Half-brother のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 61 - チャプター 70

LAURA'S POV I never thought there was a day when I'd crave Montero's company over Liam's but here I am. Montero's pouring another glass of beer and I'm lying here convincing myself that I don't need to feel guilty for what I've done. Liam pushed me to do this. It's all his fault. Montero turns around and hands me the glass then put the rim of the bottle to his mouth. "What's going on? Having marital issues already?" I want to ignore that question because it sounds like mockery but I need to vent. I feel like I'm going crazy."That man drives me mad." I finally say. Montero clicks his tongue and picks out a stick of cigarette from his drawer. His place is nice with a spacious kitchen and bathroom in the room itself and a nice, cold, swimming pool just opposite the porch. Every place in Liam's villa is a touch of heaven...even the staff apartments. The interior is painted in a plain white color with black designs across the walls. It had even been furnished with a large bed, fluf

NERIAH'S POV Rainbows. The last time I saw one, I was, say, ten? I remember that my left molar had gone out the night before and I cried myself to sleep because Laura had said the tooth fairy wasn't real and instead a mouse was going to steal my teeth, making me ugly forever. Silly of me to have actually believed something like that. But could you blame me? I was only a.kid. The following morning it rained heavily and when I left the house that morning to school, I saw it in the sky. The upturned areay of colors like we were taught in school. I didn't see the indigo and violet but there was red, orange, yellow amd blue. Those are ones of the memories that I've refused to outgrow. I saw a rainbow when I stepped out to pick some flowers for Denver and got reminded of that memory. It's sitting there prettily, shining it's rays of hope over my house. For a long time I stared at it, dandelions in my hands, then I took my phone out and took a picture of it. My eyes had fallen on Ede

DENVER'S POVI saw it first. "The Chadwick brothers on a gaming collaboration come 2026."The first thought that came to mind was, "What the hell did Gia do?" and then I proceeded to pick my phone up to call her. She however came running into my hospital room almost immediately. "Denver, what's going on?" When I saw the hysteria on her face I knew immediately that it wasn't her. She has absolutely no hand in this. So who is it?"I should be asking what's going on. I put you in charge of advertising!" She lowers her lashes and sighs, "Your girl Neriah went ahead to do it before I could arrive at the office." Neriah? Neriah?"Neriah did this?" I can't control the bubble of rage building in my chest at the thought. If anyone, she should have known better. She knows exactly why this is so delicate and she was here when I have the instruction. "Why didn't you tell me?" I ask, turning to Gia. "I didn't know what she told advertising. Mark just called to tell me that she came around and

DENVER'S POV It really was Gia. I've never felt so stupid. Not in my entire life. Ethan is here packing up supplies in the hospital room while the doctor is behind me, trembling. "Mr Chadwick I don't know what's going on but you can't leave like this. You still have to get the drugs for your bronchitis treatment, and you're yet to fully recover from the fever you came down with. You didn't even finish the medication!" That's the fiftieth time she's saying that but I don't care. I'm leaving this damned hospital and I'm not coming back until I can fix whatever it is that's going on in my life. "Give him the prescription. I'll take them" I say to her when Ethan is done, walking out of the room almost immediately. I've been calling Gia but the call keeps going to voicemail. I know exactly where she'd be but I won't go there immediately. I won't give her the satisfaction of seeing me as weak as I am. "Get me something to eat," I bark at Ethan when he climbs in behind the wh

LAURA'S POV I've seen Liam drunk severally, but never like this. He's staggering, shirt left open. His feet are bare and I can't find both tie and jacket. "Liam?" He has a bottle in his hand. "What is this? What's wrong with you?" He stumbles, crashing to the ground. Montero shakes his head in disgust. "Look who you left me for, Laura" he mutters into my ear as he crouches to lift Liam to his feet. "Oh shut the fuck up." Now I'm in need of something strong to pour down my throat. What on earth made him drink this much? The fact that he ran into me at the orphanage? The fact that I changed my name? Or said that I knew him? I used to think Liam was simpleminded and foolish, but this man...the man who's been parading this house lately, he's complicated and completely unfathomable. I can't seem to understand him or figure out his motives for acting like he does. Three days back he stormed into the room, bent me over and thrust feverishly into me like he's been sex starved for
