Married to my stepbrother boss. のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 61 - チャプター 70

“What do you mean?” My breath caught as I stared at Kaid, shocked to my core. If this were another game of his, he must be really taking this love he had for Vivian to interesting heights. He was probably trying not to get me to have some form of emotional disaster where I would not be able to make an active decision on Vivian.But there was something about the way he looked at me, and I couldn’t help but stop to listen to him.“I will explain everything,” He had said. And he did. He showed me the video of the attack, when Vivian had pushed me off the stairs, and how he got to find out we were half -sisters.“I don’t believe you,” I shook my head in denial. “My father would never do that to my mum. He loved her. He couldn’t possibly have another family and not tell her about it.” I shook my head again and began pacing. “I have to speak with him,” I mumbled and reached for my phone, but Kaid stopped me.“No, Sage, you’re overreacting. You need to be calm about this. Think about your he

The ride home was the most quiet I had ever experienced. The silence was the unusual kind. I kept my eyes out of the window, but nothing made sense to me. I felt as though a part of me died.When we got to Kaid’s penthouse, I slowly dragged myself out of the car and walked alone. My shoulders are heavy from the weight of it all. I was too tired. And Loren’s worried look of concern and smile couldn’t make me come out of the shell I had gotten myself stuck in. She had called me, and I didn’t listen. Or rather, I couldn’t bring myself to. It felt as though my mind was trapped in a different dimension, and I was called from another.I didn’t notice the look of worry Kaid had on his face when I kept taking the stairs without looking back. By the time I climbed into bed and closed my eyes, I didn’t know if I had slept off at all. It wasn’t until the smell of freshly cooked pastries and coffee wafted over my nostrils.When my eyes fluttered open, I met Kaid’s blue eyes watching me. He was cl

The next morning, when I woke up, Kaid was not by my side. I feel a little saddened by it, but he’s got to work, so I shrug it off. Last night was amazing, and unraveling.So, I take a quick shower before going down for breakfast. I find Loren going about her business, and her face lit up when she saw me.“You look good today, Mrs. Greyson,” She says, and I can’t help but blush.“Thank you. I don’t see Kaid anywhere,” I add.“Mr. Greyson says there was an emergency at work. He didn’t want to disturb you.” She replies, handing me a glass of milk. “He instructed me to give you this when you wake.”“Oh,” I take the glass of milk from her and take a sip before grabbing a seat.“I’ll go serve your breakfast,” She says before turning to leave while I focus on finishing my glass of milk.I’m kind of tempted to send him a message, but I stop myself just in time. I don’t want to appear needy because we had sex last night. And although he said he wanted to make it up to me, I sincerely didn’t k

When Parker called, saying he had followed the money and had found the trail, I knew it was something bad. There had been this unsettling feeling I’ve had for the past week, after coming to know the truth about Vivian’s involvement in everything that had happened to my mother and my sister. To think that I had blindly trusted her and held her, kept her in my corner, not knowing she was the devil all along. But nothing unsettled me more than the distance between Sage and me.Sage and I had agreed to work together to get to the bottom of the whole truth. She was involved now. Having been the victim alone, she had every right to know why Vivian had thrown her into her plans. It was clear she had manipulated their father and had blackmailed James for years. But she had not only stopped at blackmail. She had incited him into using violence against my mother and sister, and had offered her assistance. Only to have ended up killing them.I have been in the corporate world for far too long to

My father’s response threw me off balance, and I stared at him in shock. “You knew?” “I know a lot of things. But that’s beside the point. How did Vivian get those shares?” His gaze was wild as he tried to grasp the severity of the situation. “She has something on Gregory and Dean. She is using them.” My jaw clenched as the irony of the situation wasn’t lost on me. She was the puppet master and had been using all of us. “You know her. How come you know?” My brows furrowed. While it appeared as though I was patiently waiting, my chest heaved in painful breaths.“I found out after your mother died. James had been acting off. It didn’t take long to figure out he was taking funds from the company and giving them to his ex. It was strange to me because the only woman who mattered to him was Katherine. I later found out they shared a child who was already grown up, and every time he sent the money to his ex, she transferred the money to their daughter. It didn’t take long for me to figure
