All Chapters of Sinful Obsession: My Billionaire Stepbrother : Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

Isabel’s pov~ "I have to explain something to you, Isabel," William said, walking across the room to where I still sat on the stool after he had seen Alex out. He looked serious, like he had made his mind up about what he was going to say. "Since you know about the picture of my mom and yours together in school, then you should know it looks sneaky that she and my mom were that close but never uttered a word about it, it's suspicious, so—" He stopped, looked away for a second, and then turned his sharp gaze back to me. "I had her trailed," he said. I sat still, at a loss for words. In truth, the admission did not shock me, suspicion had already taken root weeks ago when I spotted him whispering with that private investigator while Jax and I were out taking our lunch break so to me it was not new. "Okay," I murmured, carefully feigning a look of sudden surprise. He studied my face silently, searching for a reaction, before letting out a sigh. "You're not angry that I had your

~Isabel~"You're coming to the office today, right?" William asked. He shifted his weight, still leaning over me but trapping me against the couch with his hands planted on either side of my face."Fuck! yes," I muttered. My stomach dropped as the reality of the morning crashed into my brain. I remembered I had to clock in at work. God knows I had no energy to face Juliana right now, but I had to. I needed to. My career depended on it, the job wasn't something I could just walk away from, even if I was beginning to dislike her a lot.William played with my nipples, twirling his tongue on them. I tried to push him off so I could get up and check the time, but he won't budge. "I need to go prepare," I say, trying to get his attention, but he continued what he was doing, completely ignoring me. I moaned out slowly when I felt him bite my lower neck that was going to leave a mark for sure. "William," I called out, even though my voice sounded weak and breathless in my ears. I was be

~Isabel~ "Bring it on, Juliana. I'm here to work, isn't it?" I replied, forcing the same dirty smirk she was wearing right back at her. She arched an eyebrow, a flicker of surprise crossed her face before she masked it with pure disdain. "Oh, we’ll see just how long that attitude lasts Isabel." She huffed, then stormed off into her corner of the office, just across the glass partition, I watched her yank out a thick stack of folders and a small plastic flash drive, she marched back to my desk, while I unpacked my things trying to look unaffected. She slammed the hefty files down with a force that rattled my computer, throwing the flash drive on top of them. "These are information and deep details about all the shareholders of this company," Juliana said, leaning forward a bit, her eyes narrowed as she relished the moment. "We have done the big job of gathering them, it's your turn to go through them and summarize them for William, He will be needing it in the next four h

~Isabel~I realized then that the best way to face a problem is not to duck, but to rise up fully to the challenge. I accepted the risk, and now, I have to be careful; showing any sign of guilt will not work to my benefit, there is simply too much at stake. I looked around at all four of them, their gazes fixed on me, waiting for an explanation. My chest felt tight under the weight of their scrutiny, that look of judgment on their faces seemed to penetrate my skin, I tried to steady my hands, forcing my fingers not to tremble as I picked up the flash drive. It felt small and cold against my palm. I forced a smile, stretching the muscles in my face until it felt natural enough."I’m just returning your flash drive. I’ve finished everything and am about to hand my work over to William’s PA. Since I’ll be away from my desk, I thought I’d drop it off in case you need it immediately and I’m not around."She looked at me, pondering my explanation, her eyes bored into mine as if trying

~Isabel~I gripped my phone hard, as I rubbed my palm across my face to clean the tears. My whole body felt weak, I forced myself to drag one foot in front of the other, just trying to get away from the restroom area. It was so not fair. It shouldn't hurt this much, but it did. My heart ached. Anyone who saw me right now will notice how dejected I was, it was clear right across my face, from my red eyes to my pale lip. I can't even face Juliana right now. How can I look at her? How do you stand in front of someone when the man you like is being engaged to them? The worst part was hearing it through office gossip.I had almost gotten to the legal department when I met Jax. He stopped where he was going too, cutting his stride when he saw me. He was carrying a stack of files, but his focus shifted entirely to me the moment our eyes met."Hey? Are you okay?" he asked, his eyes dropping to my face."Yeah, I am fine," I replied. I forced out a smile"You look pale," he said, his brow
