Semua Bab Forbidden Love wtih my Ex-Husband's Billionaire Brother: Bab 161 - Bab 170

♥༺Joseph༻♥For the longest time, all I’d wanted was to finally put my younger brother in his place once and for all.Every single time Ken crossed the line, something always got in the way, bad timing, someone stepping in at the last second, whatever. But today was different.For once, I had him right where I wanted him. After everything he’d done to Giselle, he deserved every single punch I landed.I’d hoped knocking him out cold might finally knock some sense into that thick skull of his.Unfortunately, the name lighting up my phone screen told me that wasn’t happening anytime soon.Dad.I didn’t even need to answer to know exactly what this call was about.Ken had run straight to him like the little snitch he was. I let out a heavy breath, accepted the call, and pressed the phone to my ear.Before I could even get a word out, my father’s furious voice exploded through the speaker like a bomb going off.“Jo, get home this minute!”I closed my eyes for a second, forcing myself to sta

♥༺Kennedy༻♥The second I drove through the gates of the Macmillan mansion, I could already tell something was seriously off. My parents were standing in the garden instead of waiting inside the living room as usual.Dad was pacing back and forth across the garden with his hands clasped tightly behind his back, while Mom walked in the opposite direction, looking just as restless and on edge.They didn’t even seem to notice the beautiful flowers, the fancy fountains, or any of the expensive landscaping around them. They were clearly waiting for me, and the tension in the air was so thick it felt suffocating.As soon as I reached there, both of them turned toward me at the same time. Dad reached me first. His face was pulled tight with stress, and his voice carried a heavy seriousness I hadn’t heard in years. “Ken… tell me you didn’t see what you think you saw.”His eyes searched mine desperately. “You mean Jo is dating your ex-wife?”Those words slammed into me like a brutal punch to the

♥༺Giselle༻♥I had already come to terms with the fact that Ken had betrayed me. That truth had hurt like hell on its own. But learning the real reason he came into my life in the first place… that pain sliced so much deeper it felt like it was tearing me apart from the inside.It made me question every single memory we’d ever shared, every smile, every sweet promise, every whispered “I love you.” Had any of it been real, or was it all just one big lie?I looked at him, desperately searching for the man I used to love with my whole heart. All I saw now was regret and guilt written all over his face. “Ken…” My voice came out quieter and softer than I expected. “You never actually loved me.”Saying the words out loud hurt, but they were the honest truth. “You stayed with me because you felt guilty.” I shook my head slowly, the bitterness rising up again. “Jo was right.&rd

 ♥༺Joseph༻♥She flinched hard. For a brief moment, real guilt flashed across her face. Maybe Giselle had found it in her heart to forgive them, but I hadn’t. Not even close.What they did wasn’t some simple mistake. Their greed had destroyed an innocent family. They stole a future that never belonged to them and watched Giselle suffer for years without saying a single word. There was no excuse for any of it.Mom looked at me with watery eyes. “I never hated Giselle,” she whispered, so quietly I almost didn’t catch it. “I only wanted her away from this family.” She lowered her head. “Now that the secret is out… there’s no reason to keep pushing her away anymore.”I stared at her like I was looking at a complete stranger. Heavy disappointment settled deep inside me. “You’ve disappointed me, Mom.” Every word came straight from my heart. “Afte

♥༺Kennedy༻♥The doctor’s words slammed into all of us like a freight train. Pregnant. For a few long seconds, nobody made a sound. The whole hallway went dead silent while we all tried to wrap our heads around what we’d just heard.Then it hit me like a punch to the gut. If Giselle was pregnant, there was only one person who could be the father.“If she’s pregnant…” I stepped forward, my heart hammering so hard I could feel it in my throat. “Then I’m the father.”Joseph turned toward me slowly. The look in his eyes was pure ice, it could’ve frozen hell over.“What makes you think that?” His voice stayed calm, but the fury burning underneath it was impossible to miss.I stood my ground, refusing to back down even an inch. “She could’ve already been pregnant before the divorce was final.” My chest heaved with every breath. “I want a paternity test. And I’m going to marry her again.”I had to believe it. There was no way Giselle had jumped into something serious with Joseph before our ma
