《RUINED BY MY BOSS AND HIS STEPSON 》全部章節：第 31 章 - 第 40 章

Elara's POV.I stood at the corner watching Antoine pace around the room, frustrated and angry. He turned to my direction every few seconds, eyes filled with hate and venom.I was more than grateful to whatever force of nature that stopped him from killing me in that room.He had everything he needed to kill me here. Guns, knives, swords, grenades. The only thing missing in this strange room was a military tank.Seriously, what was this room? And what was he? Some kind of collector?No, I'll just delude myself into thinking he was just a collector.People collect different weird things for different reasons.There was no cat. I was fooled into thinking there was a fucking cat, and the only question is why I was involved in this at all.Toby didn't say anything to Arthur, right? Toby kept insisting that I stay on Antoine's good side. He claimed that it was the only thing that was going to save me if the Laurents were looking for a scapegoat.He didn't go much into details, but it was m

Luc's POV“Thank you, Mr. Valmort,” I said before ending the call.I let out a sigh of relief.“Is Antoine dead?” Amaya asked as she removed her jewelry. She turned to me with a cold expression. “That is the only reason you would be thanking that lowlife.”“Antoine's fine,” I said. “He somehow handled it without killing anyone.”She paused.Then burst out laughing.“Antoine fought with someone and didn't drop a body? What dimension am I in?”I walked over to her. “Well, he handled it,” I repeated firmly.“I don't trust it,” she admitted. “That boy is bad news.”“At least he's not a spy for my father,” I replied coldly.She froze like she'd just seen a ghost.Then she slowly turned back to the mirror, staring at me through the reflection.“Forgive me for respecting the elders in the family,” she said defensively, holding her head high as though she'd just won an Oscar.I placed my hands on her shoulders, my thumbs rubbing slowly over her bones as I stared at her through the mirror.“Te

Antoine's POVI licked my teeth, rubbing my chin as I carefully watched the video on Luc's phone.I had to admit, the video was pretty good. It was so clear that I could almost relive the moment.Her moans. Her scent. Her taste. Her soft skin.Damn, whoever took the video was a professional. I tossed the phone to the other side and raised my legs onto the table.“Pretty good video,” I said nonchalantly. “I have to admit, you're quite thick down there.”“That's what you have to say about it?!” Luc snapped.He had been sitting across from me, watching me carefully as I watched the video. His face was red, his fists clenched tightly, and his jaw locked as though he was struggling to contain his anger.“That's a fucking video of us having sex with Elara,” he said. “Do you have any idea what's going to happen if that gets out to the public? And that's assuming he hasn't already released it.”“That's why you pointed a fucking gun at her?” I asked, my voice still calm. “She doesn't even kno

Antoine's POV. I stared at the doctors as they pushed his stretcher to the emergency ward. He had an oxygen mask on his face, his clothes were torn open, blood still rushing out. I still couldn't believe it. This wasn't the first time someone was shot in front of me, but somehow, it was the first time I was left completely frozen. Amaya was at the corner, crying and screaming at the top of her lungs. Her father and brother were trying their best to hold her down while I was trying my best not to actually scream at her. Luc isn't the first person to be shot, and he definitely wouldn't be the first to survive a gunshot to the chest so why was she overreacting. “You.” She suddenly turned to me. “It's your fault!”My fault? I was standing there with him. How the hell was this my fault?“I've always said you were bad news,” she cried loudly. “Luc never listens to me, now look what happened.”I ignored her, and looked at the room the doctors went into. This was Hugo.No one would ha

Elara's POVI wasn't sure if they needed me at the hospital, but after three days of not hearing anything from anyone in the family, I decided to visit them.And not to be that person, but I also wanted to see Amaya and talk to her about when I'd be leaving.I was patiently waiting for the elevator when someone walked up beside me. His tall, intimidating figure made it hard not to look at him.He slowly turned toward me, and a small smile appeared on his lips.It was Antoine's friend. I recognized him from the party.He pressed the button, and the elevator doors opened.I walked in after him, hiding my arms inside the sleeves of my sweater.He pulled out his phone and started scrolling while I pressed the button for my floor.Doesn't he recognize me? Or does he just not care?I glanced at him.He had light brown hair that fell slightly over his forehead, giving him a relaxed look. He wore a plain black T-shirt under a dark jacket, paired with fitted blue jeans and clean white sneakers
