All Chapters of Forbidden Desire: Tempted By My Stepbrother: Chapter 201 - Chapter 210

AutumnI felt worse for Abel when he told me that he had been sleeping in what couldn’t even pass as a safe and healthy place for a long time now.Abel didn’t deserve that.He must have made some mistakes, but he was definitely not that guy.Abel had a great job going for himself, and it made me wonder why he would be stranded here in Italy and living like a pauper. “What about your job, Abel?” I had asked him worriedly.Abel had bowed his head sorrowfully and had responded, saying, “I got fired.”I had been shocked to my bones because Abel was great at that job, and he did brag to me with great excitement while were still together that he was going to get promoted into being a partner, and he was looking forward to it.As a matter of fact, we had celebrated in his apartment with a bottle of wine for it, and afterwards, we had had sex.Susan had even said that Abel might start talking about wedding preparations once he got the promotion. I wasn’t leaning on it, but I had been very ha

DanteBy the time we returned to the house, Autumn was still an emotional mess, and it was really frustrating to see.“What if something bad happens to him?” She continued asking deeply. “He is lonely and does not have any money,” she added.Dominic stopped the car and we got out.Looking at Autumn being so sad over Abel not only broke my heart, but it also angered me because I knew that he didn’t deserve the kind of sympathy he was getting. She had a thing for being compassionate towards the wrong people.People who would end up hurting her or putting her in harm’s way one way or another.“What you need right now is to freshen up and get something to eat. You have been starving for way too long now and you look pale,” I told her as we approached the door.I wondered how she could still have the energy to play savior when she wasn’t even taking care of herself. I hadn’t seen her in this state before, and it made me really worried and slightly disappointed. I never knew that she could

AutumnI would never have pegged Dante as a man who even knew how to make coffee, much more something as toast, especially as I couldn’t even whip up a good toast myself.“Are you sure about this?” I asked him.“Of course,” Dante responded.He walked to the counter where I had begun mixing the flour for pancakes.“I was already halfway through when I realized that I hadn’t brought the milk along,” I explained what was already obvious. “What are we going to do with all these now?” I asked, concerned about letting all of it go to waste.Susan hated it when I let things go to waste.“It will be taken care of by the chef in the morning. You shouldn’t be worrying about that,” Dante said.Carefully, he moved everything to the side and began to make preparation for what he wanted to make, and my stomach chose that moment to rumble loudly again, making me slightly embarrassed, especially when Dante stopped and stared at me.“Why would you even allow yourself to get this famished, Autumn?” He

DanteEven though it was the last thing I had wanted, my dad had gone right on to narrate what exactly happened.When my mum was found dead, there had been bigger problems than anyone ever bothered to explain to me even though I wasn’t exactly a child.“Mateo, her family are going to come for us,” granduncle Gonzalez had said. “But they won’t have to know what really happened if we don’t tell them,” my dad had said.My mum’s family, just like the clan that Maria came from were also deadly mafias. Somehow, granduncle Gonzalez and my granddad had become indebted to them, and so to make up for that, they had arranged a marriage between my dad and my mum.Over the years, the marriage had been nothing but filled with bitterness, anger, regret, and deep hatred, especially from my dad.My mum had tried to love my dad, but he didn’t put in the same effort, and that was because he never liked her from the very beginning.My clan was strong and powerful, but our power was mostly from the wealt

AutumnI stayed in the living room, not exactly sure what I was waiting for, but I hadn’t set eyes on Dante since the previous night, and from all indications, he wasn’t anywhere in the house.When I became extremely worried, I called Dominic.“Hello, who is this?” He asked when he picked up the call.“It’s Autumn,” I responded.“Oh, I didn’t know you had my cell number,” Dominic said, sounding surprised.“Well, I obviously do,” I responded.“Is there something I can help you with?” He asked politely.“I haven’t seen Dante, and I don’t have an idea where he might be. Do you?” I asked him.“I don’t know where he might be right now,” Dominic responded.“But do you know where he must have gone to?” I asked further.There was no possible way Dominic wouldn’t have known where Dante had gone to. They were as thick as thieves, and I had no doubt that he would have an idea.“Um, I think he must have gone to his company,” Dominic responded.I wasn’t wrong anyway.“So that means that if Dante w
