บททั้งหมดของ My Steprother's Secret Obsession: บทที่ 91 - บทที่ 100

"Good morning, baby," Theo's voice, warm and sweet, drifted through the phone, pulling me gently from the edges of sleep. I blinked, still nestled in the soft embrace of my bed, the morning light just beginning to paint the room in soft hues.A wide smile stretched across my face as I saw his face on the screen. He was already dressed, looking sharp in his suit, a testament to his busy day ahead. "You're so beautiful. Especially every morning. How I wish I woke up beside you." He murmured. His words were a soft caress, a wish that resonated deep within my heart, leaving me longing for the day we wouldn't need screens to share our mornings.I shifted back against my pillows, lying flat on my back as I angled my phone to let him see more of me. The nightie I wore was sheer as silk, clinging to every curve with delicate transparency; the soft edges of my lingerie peeked through like secrets meant only for him. With a slow, deliberate movement, I traced my finger along my collarbone be

Feeling full and happy, we decided to end our fun day by going to a fancy mall. We meandered through boutiques, browsing the latest collections, and enjoying the lively atmosphere in each other's company.It was around six o'clock when I finally got back to my condo. I have to say, even though a part of me missed Theo, I thoroughly enjoyed my day out with Lily and Irene. It was a really nice, much-needed break from everything.After putting away my shopping bags, I pulled an apple and a glass of milk from the fridge. That was all I planned for dinner. I was too lazy to cook or even order delivery. Just as I settled in, the thought of calling Theo crossed my mind.Reaching for my phone, I was surprised to see a slew of messages and three missed calls. Checking the timestamps, I realized his first call was around 1 PM, right when we were deep into our massages. Another came in around 4 PM. That must have been when Lily and I were navigating the loud, bustling mall, completely oblivious

Sunday rolled around, and my friends, Lily and Irene, extended yet another invitation. A visit to a newly opened theme park in the city. Feeling a bit restless and bored within the confines of my condo, I readily agreed to join them. We spent some time exploring, but the grand opening had drawn such an overwhelming crowd that every attraction had an impossibly long queue. After battling the throngs for a while, we collectively decided to abandon the park.To my slight annoyance, Lily had brought along her boyfriend, Gino, and his friend, Kyle, who seemed to be making a concerted effort to charm Irene. I shot Lily a discreet, disapproving look. She hadn't mentioned bringing boys, and now I felt awkwardly like a fifth wheel, surrounded by couples while I was acutely aware of Theo's absence. This unexpected dynamic only served to amplify how much I missed him.Lily quickly offered an apologetic explanation. She hadn't anticipated Gino would come, but he had insisted on joining them. It

Before I could even process his sudden appearance, Cedrick, seeing his friend sprawled ignominiously on the floor, charged at Theo like a bull. Gino, fueled by loyalty and perhaps a touch of drunken aggression, joined the fray, both men throwing wild punches at Theo. "No!" I screamed, my voice raw with terror. They were ganging up on him! But even against two opponents, Theo was a formidable force. He moved with a brutal, efficient grace, blocking, countering, and delivering his own blows. He managed to hold his ground, even gain an advantage, a testament to his unexpected strength and skill. Bodies collided, a furious tangle of limbs, until the bouncers, finally getting a grip on the situation, managed to pry them apart, dragging them roughly to separate corners."Get this jerk out of this club!" Gino roared, his face a twisted mask of fury as he jabbed a furious finger at Theo, ordering the bouncers to haul him away. The bouncers, massive and intimidating, began to advance, their

"They invited me out of nowhere. We'd planned to go to that new themed park, but there were too many people. They just changed their minds and decided on the club instead. I know I should have told you. It just slipped away from me in all the chaos, and I'm so, so sorry."The guilt washed over me in a heavy wave. I'd always been so strict with him, telling him not to spend time with other women alone. Yet here I was, having gone to a place where I knew I might be vulnerable. I hadn't even thought to let him know. And now, exactly what I'd feared had happened."I pushed to wrap up my work in Japan ahead of schedule. I even rushed to finalize that big deal just so I could get back to you faster. And this is what I come home to." His voice cracked with a mix of anger and deep hurt. "I know. I know I messed up. Please, baby. Don't stay angry with me." My voice was soft and broken as I reached for him. I pulled him into a hug, pressing my body close to his, but he stood rigid as stone. Hi
