Lahat ng Kabanata ng His other woman : Kabanata 61 - Kabanata 70

**Aria**One month as a nanny, and I still had my job. That was worth celebrating. It was Friday night, and my friends and I were about to celebrate and have the time of our lives at our favorite club.Just as we were about to step inside, someone grabbed Katie and pulled her into a tight hug.I blinked, my brain scrambling to catch up. “Andrew?”Katie stiffened, clearly as surprised as I was. She tried to pull back, but my brother held on tight, whispering something to her—probably begging her to play along. Before I could demand an explanation, a furious voice cut through the night.“Andrew! What the fuck—who the hell is this woman?”We turned to see a blonde storming toward us, eyes blazing.Andrew, ever the picture of shameless confidence, grinned and tightened his hold on Katie’s waist.“Oh, Cassie,” he said, like he had just remembered she existed. “This is my girlfriend, uhm…” He hesitated, glancing at Katie for help, but she just folded her arms, brow arched.Sky and I excha

The next morning, I was sipping my coffee in peace when I heard the front door creak open. I frowned, and made my way toward the entrance, only to witness a scene straight out of a low-budget heist movie.Katie was sneaking in, heels in one hand, purse in the other, tiptoeing like a cartoon burglar. Her hair was a mess, and she had that I’ve-done-something-I-shouldn’t-have look on her face.She thought she could sneak past me unnoticed.I crossed my arms and smirked. "Are you doing the walk of shame?"Katie jumped about three feet in the air, eyes wide with guilt. "OH MY GOD, ARIA! I didn’t see you there!" she screeched, clutching her chest like I’d just threatened her life.I took another sip of my coffee, staring at her, wondering just how far things had gone with my brother. Because there was no way she spent the night with Andrew without something happening.Before I could interrogate, Skylar came down the stairs, rubbing her eyes. She stopped at the bottom step, blinking at Kat

I strutted toward the bar, heels clicking against the marble floor, ignoring the lingering gazes of men hoping for my attention. Not tonight, boys. I had my eyes on a different kind of trouble.And there he was—Ace, seated on a stool, looking as devastatingly good as ever. His usual air of boredom was on full display as he nursed his drink, barely engaging with the blonde woman beside him. Poor thing was clearly trying to get his attention, but all she was getting was the occasional nod or a one-word response.How tragic.Well, lucky for her, I was here to set her free.A smirk curled on my lips as an idea formed. I sauntered up to them, leaned down, and whispered just loud enough for her to hear:"You see that man you're talking to? Yeah, he once had an ex who didn’t take rejection well. Stalked every woman who got too close. Last I heard, she sends out… warnings. Dead roses. A single black feather. Sometimes, just a whisper in the dark before they mysteriously disappear."The blon

I groaned, rubbing my temples. "I’ve literally tried everything. Can’t he at least consider how desperate I am? He is so stingy with it!”Sky wiped a fake tear from her eye, shaking her head. “Babe, his dick is not a complimentary sample at Costco. You don’t just walk up and grab one.”I threw my hands up. “Well, it should be. Other men throw themselves at me like I’m the last donut at a meeting full of cops. Why is he different?”She rolled her eyes. “You need to try harder to win him over, or better yet, just move on.”I gasped, scandalized. “Move on? From the forbidden fruit I haven’t even had a single bite of? Absolutely not.”Slumping back in my seat, I groaned dramatically. “I’ve reached a point where I don’t even know if I want him or if I just want to win. The rejection is personal now, Sky. Every time he resists, it’s like he’s saying, ‘Try harder, peasant,’ and I simply cannot let that stand.”Sky arched a brow. “You’re sounding dangerously close to a villain origin story.”

Sky yanked her arm back and crossed her arms, unimpressed. “I’m a reporter, not your personal PR manager. I don’t owe you an explanation.”Carter scoffed. “Oh, really? So you can just write whatever slanderous nonsense you want about me, and I’m supposed to let it slide?”Sky tilted her head, pretending to think. “Hmm. Yes.”Carter clenched his jaw. “Unbelievable.”Sky smirked. “It’s called journalism, sweetheart.”Carter leaned in, voice dropping. “It’s called defamation, darling.”I sighed, rubbing my temples. “Alright, you two, wrap this up before someone gets murdered.”"Not yet." Carter’s smirk was infuriatingly smug. "Skylar and I still have some unfinished business, and you two will have to excuse us."Ace let out a bored sigh, already turning on his heel. "Whatever, dude. You two sort out your issues. I’m gonna make a phone call." And with that, he disappeared down the hall.She tried to walk away, but Carter caught her wrist and pulled her back—not forcefully, but with enough
