One Night's Mistake With My Stepbrother のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 121 - チャプター 130

Soon I realized that the dizziness I was feeling wasn’t simply from the overwhelming information that I was being fed. Something felt wrong. "Are you feeling okay?" Lloyd asked as he leaned over the table and brought his face closer to mine. "I don’t know. I feel quite dizzy," I admitted in a shaky voice. "Just relax, my dear girl; it doesn’t suit you to look so stressed and worried," Lloyd said before he smirked mischievously down at me. I felt my lower lip quiver, but I could not make a sound. The throbbing ache in my head only intensified with each passing second. It felt like it was taking all of the effort that I had just to keep my eyes open. I felt his arms around my body as if he wanted to support me, but when his hand began stroking my back and dipping even lower to my waist as he explored the curves of my body, I knew that Lloyd had very impure intentions in mind. Helping me recover from the state that I was in wasn’t what he had planned. I knew that I needed to struggl

My mind felt so disoriented when I finally snapped out of my slumber, and I wondered where I was. I blinked my eyes a couple of times as I tried to focus. Recognition of my surroundings slowly seeped in, and I realized I was in my bedroom inside George’s mansion. I was safe. The warmth of the sheets wrapped around me felt comforting, yet I sensed that something was off. My mind was foggy, but it didn’t take long for the memories to slowly return.The meeting I had with Lloyd in secret. The truth that he revealed about Rowan and his family. The drug in my drink. The dizziness that overwhelmed me, and how Lloyd tried to take advantage of me. And then...Rowan.I gasped as I sat up too quickly, only to be hit by a wave of nausea. I pressed my forehead, steadying myself as I tried to breathe slowly and deeply. I remembered it all now. Lloyd had drugged me, toyed with me, dangling the truth in front of me and treating me like a fool before he tried to take advantage of me. Rowan had come to

"You’re right. Sorry to disturb you and Rowan as well. We should catch up over dinner," my mother said before winking at me. "Sure," I replied, although I knew that my mother had no idea just how much we truly needed to catch up over dinner. I glanced at the door that closed behind the two of them after their departure. My heart was aching for my mother because I knew that she just had absolutely no idea. She had no idea what kind of world she had married into. No idea that the man living right by her side and loving her had built an empire on things that most people wouldn’t even dare talk about. She was scared of Lloyd and his violent behavior, and that was when I knew I had to tell her. I couldn’t let her continue living in this illusion while being treated as a fool. No matter how much she loved George, she needed to be told the truth. In fact, because she loved George so much, I felt that my mother deserved to know the truth so that she could decide for herself what she wanted

"You don’t trust me?" he repeated my words darkly."I’m sorry. I honestly don’t know if I can," I admitted in a shaky voice.Rowan’s expression only hardened even further. I saw something unfamiliar flicker in his eyes, but before I could identify it, he quickly looked away."Do you want to leave?" Rowan asked after a long moment of silence.His unexpected question sent a jolt running through my body. I stared at Rowan speechlessly when I realized that I didn’t know what I wanted to do.Did I want to leave?I had been thinking about it non-stop, about leaving the mafia world and taking my mother with me. But when the time came for me to answer his question, I couldn’t bring myself to say anything."Do you honestly think that you can simply walk away?" Rowan asked accusingly.His eyes were wild with rage, but I only saw it for a brief moment before his lips came down to claim mine in a punishing kiss. His lips felt so hot on mine as his hands moved to grope my breasts roughly. Rowan wr

I felt my entire body freeze when he suddenly sensed our presence and his eyes flickered towards us. George’s expression transformed into a warm smile immediately the moment that his eyes landed on us. All the frustration and stress vanished completely behind a forced mask of ease. He ended the call without saying anything further, before turning to us with a forced smile."You’re back, my dears," he said smoothly, as if nothing had happened.I wanted to grab my mother’s arm and take her to my bedroom, but my mother quickly stepped forward towards George. I thought it was better that she didn’t find out what was going on, but clearly, my mother thought otherwise."Is something the matter?" my mother asked with a frown on her face.George let out a soft laugh before he waved his hand dismissively."Darling, it’s just work. There’s always something going on and sometimes you need to deal with a few bumps along the way. But don’t worry, I’ll take care of it," George replied calmly.My mo
