All Chapters of Claimed by My Husband and His Bestfriends : Chapter 211 - Chapter 220

“Why the fuck would he do this now?” Beck thought to himself, his heart slammed hard against his ribs.Before Myla, Jared had always been the solid anchor of their chaotic group.Hayden was brilliant. There wasn’t a business problem on earth that man couldn’t solve. But his pride could blind him, and when he dug his heels in, it took a heculean effort to move him.Beck knew he was the smartest academically. His mind raced through problems faster than most people could keep up, but it also meant emotions hit him like freight trains. He felt everything too much.Jared was the one who knew exactly when Hayden needed to be challenged and exactly when Beck needed to be pulled back before his emotions consumed him.Beck broke into a run, heading to the nurses’ station. “Have you seen the tall guy that came with the Oakleys?” He panted, nearly skidding across the polished floor as he stopped. “Military haircut, low beard?”One nurse looked up immediately. “The handso… Sorry, I meant the gent

Downstairs in his office, Jared sat reclined in his chair, listening to the news anchor drone on the television screen. The broadcast showed the stock values of Oakley Corps dropping rapidly, alongside images of their J&B security headquarters.“...Oakley Corp stock has continued to decline throughout the day, with several major investors announcing they are actively reviewing their partnerships...” the reporter announced. "... at the same time, clients are reportedly suspending contracts with J&B Security pending further developments on the Operation Nightfall leak...”His jaw clenched tightly as he changed the channel, and the voice of the main anchor cut through the quiet room.“...the silence from both the Department of Defence and even Jared Lotto himself has become increasingly noticeable as the hours progress...” the TV droned on. “... so far, there has been no official denial, confirmation, or counterstatement regarding the severe war crime allegations...”Jared’s eyes narrowe

“Oh, he is still downstairs in his office, love,” Beck answered, looking at the bedroom door as if expecting Jared to come through it like a phantom. “Since last night?” Myla said, frowning. “Wait, did he seriously not come up to bed at all while I was asleep?”“No,” Hayden replied, shaking his head, his mouth tight.She looked between them. “And you let him stay there all night?”“We really tried to get him to come to bed multiple times, but he was very closed off after we arrived, My,” Beck replied, his eyes sad. “So Hay and I thought it was best to give him some quiet time alone.” “Yesterday was… a lot,” Hayde

“To the pieces of my heart,” Hayden started, his voice steady, but there was a roughness beneath. He paused and cleared his throat before continuing. “If you are reading this, then I have already left.First, I am sorry.I know apologizing does not change anything, but I still owe each of you one. I promised I wouldn’t disappear, and I broke that promise. I know that hurts, especially after everything that has happened these past few days.Please believe me when I say this was not an easy decision.”Hayden paused for a second, swallowing against the tightness in his throat.“My, Before I met you, surviving was enough for me. I woke up, I trained, I worked, and I slept. I called it living because I didn’t know there was anything else.Then you walked into our lives.Somehow, without even trying, you reminded me that peace wasn’t something reserved for other people.You loved without conditions. You looked at me and never once saw a too reserved, pensive man. Instead of taking it the

“He is not here,” Beck replied firmly. “If you cannot drop a direct message for him right now, then you are completely wasting your breath.”Voss let out a heavy sigh over the line. “I know you know about the so-called operation by now. So listen to me carefully, and relay this message to him.” The commander paused, his tone turning incredibly sharp and threatening. “He is being ordered to keep his mouth completely shut. Whatever games he is playing with the press with this whole leaking of the files shenanigans, he needs to stop immediately. I am only reaching out with this warning as a favour because I respect him.”Shock radiated through the room, three of them exchanging surprised and horrified looks. The military really did think Jared was the one behind the whole thing, as they had feared. Hayden’s grip tightened around the phone. “You’ve got the wrong idea,” he said evenly. “Jared isn’t the one who leaked those files.”Voss let out a dry, borderline bitter chuckle. “You expect
