Semua Bab ACCIDENTALLY MARRIED TO MY BROTHER-IN-LAW: Bab 41 - Bab 50

Damian POV“What was that?” I demanded of Joseph Brook, Damon’s assistant, after Gwen left.He looked puzzled for a moment. His forehead creased into a frown. Maybe because he did not get what I wanted to know.“What’s what, Mr. Olson?” Joseph blinked, obviously at a loss as to what I was thinking.He still did not get what I meant and explaining it would have caused more confusion rather than clearing anything.Besides, Joseph has always been polite and professional to any of my guests. Why would I think that he likes Gwen?I sighed. I was aware that I was being irrational right then, when Joseph had no inkling as to what was going on in my head.I don’t think he sees women that way. I had seen him look at Gwen, and there was no malice in his eyes. Purely professional.I shook my head, clearly surprised at my own reaction.For me, women are women. They have their purpose.I am not exactly what my family had been purported to be, but I can’t deny the fact that I like girls. I enjoyed

Damian POVI was waiting for the sound of her protest, but no objection escaped her lips.I watched her face. She was not looking at me, but she was nodding her head as if in agreement.I sighed at the silent expression of her trust. I did not know that I was holding my breath. But now that I had her concurrence, I felt relieved and satisfied that she did not fight me on this.“This place has a twenty-four-hour security system. I also have bodyguards round the clock. You are safe here.”I got out of the driver’s seat to open the passenger door.Gwen gasped when I pulled her out and carried her in my arms.“I can walk.” She said shyly, but her actions contradict her words because she automatically wrapped her arms around my neck, and just like before, she burrowed her face into the crook of my neck.Her hot breath tickled my skin. It sent tingles down my spine and settled in the pit of my stomach.A small grunt escaped my lips, but I tried to hold it in because I did not want to alert

Gwen POVI woke up with a nightmare.My shrill scream echoed around me. The sound of it made me feel so lost, alone, and helpless.My eyes darted around the room, seeking the comfort of familiar things, but sadly found nothing. Then, I realized, albeit belatedly, that I was not in the house Damon bought for me.This is Damian’s house.I remembered when he told me earlier.“Miss, are you alright?” I heard a knock followed by a woman’s voice.My heart sank. I was expecting Damian outside the door. He told me that he would just be around and that he would not leave me. But where is he right now?

Gwen POVWhen I got down for breakfast, Lucille was already waiting at the dining hall. I got her name after thanking her for her concern the previous day.She was a quiet woman, but her eyes were soft and gentle.“The dining room is this way.” She pivoted on her heels, and automatically, my feet moved to follow her.The dining room is simple, separated from the living area by sliding doors. Its walls were made of glass that presented a wide view of the garden. It would have been lovely to soak in the sun here.“Would you prefer we open the glass doors for al fresco dining?” Damian’s voice cut through my thoughts.Absent-mindedly, I shifted my gaze toward him. He was already seated. He placed his phone on the side while talking to me.I shook my head in response to his question.“No. This is fine. Thanks.”He nodded while I pulled out a chair for myself and sat down.Lucille began serving.Damian and I ate in silence. I was itching to ask him about my attacker yesterday, but it looks

Damian POVI glanced at my house through the car's rearview mirror, sighed heavily, then shook my head, unable to decide whether to drive away or turn back.An ache pierced my chest when I saw the reluctance in her eyes. It was clear as night to day that Gwen did not want to stay.She kept glancing toward the car, rolling her fingers on the hem of her shirt. It was obvious she wanted to leave, held back only by concerns for her safety.I wanted to give her her freedom, but if she leaves, will I ever see her again?I shook my head and accelerated the car.At the Olson Hotel. A plan has been made."Geena's father is a staunch supporter of the vice-president. Gwen was their gift to Cooper." Mason told me, causing me to grit my teeth as I tried to compose the rage building inside me.How can this woman be so shameless as to hatch such a scheme with Damon around? Is she not afraid of earning my brother's ire?I told Mason, and he only shrugged. "Geena made it possible for her father, Pab
