All Chapters of In the arms of his brother : Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Chapter sixty one Emery’s pov. “What do you mean, Emery?” Lucas drew closer to me using his hands as a support on the desk. “He is the villain?”“How? How, Lucas?” My voice breaks as I ask him, taken aback by his baseless claims. How is he so sure that Austin had a hand in what happened to his father?“You know what Austin is capable of. And Emery, I know it’s unlike you to connive with him to do evil.” He leaned upward, waving his hand over his hair in frustration. “How could you be saying this?” I don’t know what Lucas wants me to prove. If he doesn’t trust me, then…that’s it. “Did you say conniving? Is that what you think of me now?” I could feel the stretch in my voice. Right now, Lucas is really stressing my head. “Yeah…before all this bullshit of you being Austin’s fiancee and getting married to him, I…I trusted you.” He placed both of his hands on his waist and tapped his foot on the ground . “And you still don’t trust me, but you claimed to love me!” “Yeah, yeah. Tha

Chapter sixty three Lucas’s pov. “Dad, say something.” My patience was already draining and Austin would be here any moment from now. He placed his hand on mine and raised his head. “Lucas…you have to let go of what happened, the most important part is that I’m alive.” “What do you mean?” I irked an eyebrow, squeezing my free hand tight. “What I mean is that it’s my priority as the head to keep the peace of this family,” he nodded. Oh! Now he wants to keep peace. Did he try to keep the peace when my mum was alive?“Oh! C’mon Dad, when mum was alive—”“I’ve made the mistake once so I wouldn’t want to cause anymore chaos in our household,” Dad interrupted. Yeah, he knows what he did by bringing another woman into our lives.“I’m only trying to protect you, Dad. If it’s someone from our family that did this it means you’re not safe in the house anymore. You escaped it now doesn’t mean the person wouldn’t try to complete the job,” I enumerated.“What job?” Brielle walked in on us.

Chapter sixty five. Lucas’s pov. The woods were wet which made me wave my hair in frustration.My eyes moved to check on Emery and she was freezing and unconscious. She’s fucking freezing. I have to do something quickly. In a rush manner , I searched around for some change of clothes. I found some clothes neatly folded in a shelf; one side had female clothing while the other side had male clothing. It’s obvious that it was a couple that lived here. How could they survive here? Or do they come occasionally to cool off? Or are they dead? Dead! This place might be dangerous. I took out a floral gown which smelled of old dust and cedar. It was a far cry from the professional suit gown she was currently wearing which clinged to her skin like a second layer.I had to take off Emery’s wet clothes and put on the gown for her without looking at her nude . I know I’m not supposed to, but at this point, it’s the only option I had. If I don’t get her out of this wet clothes, the fever woul

CHAPTER SIXTY SEVEN.Emery’s pov.I stepped out of the bath tub, the warm water doing nothing to melt away the ice gripping my chest. I didn’t know how to feel or what to do, but the last thing I will want to do was to confront Austin about it even though my body want to scream out how I felt.However, I had questions…unanswered questions, popping in and out of my mind. Why did he do it? Is it because he has fallen in love with me and he wanted to claim me at all cost? Even at the expense of my mental health. He had questions too about my disappearance with Lucas, he was consumed by worry throughout yesterday and this morning, yet he gave me a warm embrace as I returned and stood up for me against Celestine? Could that be genuine trust he has for me? My mind was pressured and filled with suffocating unease. I ransacked my closet checking for my clothes that could still size me, my baby bump is getting more visible with each passing month.“Don’t tell me you’ve been sitting here and

Chapter sixty nine . Brielle’s pov. I stomped out with my chest puffed with fury so hot that I felt like acid was in my throat . How did she do it? How did she manage to charm both brothers? Urghhhh!! I dragged my fingernails into my palms that I felt like screaming. “I’m so sorry ma’am,” Magda hurriedly said as we clashed onto each other. She was in a hurry and obviously I was distracted with my thoughts. As Magda bent down to pick up the clothes , a brilliant idea sparked in my head. Hmmm….“Don’t worry I’ll handle it from here,” I said to her in a sudden fake sweetness. “But ma’am, it’s my job,” she protested in a low tone. “It’s fine, Magda. Go attend to other things,” I dismissed her, giving her a look that brooked no argument. “Lucas is mine. You don’t stand a chance bitch,” I mumbled to myself as I stared at the clothes. A devious feeling of satisfaction filled my nerves. Emery’s pov. After I was done with the change of clothes , I went back to the party. I paused
