Trapped with My Brother's Forbidden Best Friend のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 71 - チャプター 80

Mia’s words hit like ice water. “I saw you two last night. Ethan fucking you raw against the boathouse. I have photos. Clear as day.”My stomach twisted. Guilt crashed over me. “Mia… please. We’re family. Don’t do this.”“Family?” She laughed bitterly. “Then why are you hiding like this? Letting your brother’s best friend claim you while Ryan is ten feet away? Ten thousand dollars by dinner, or the whole family group chat gets the truth.”Ethan stepped in front of me, voice low and dangerous. “Delete them. Now. You’re hurting Ava.”Mia smirked. “Hurting her? Or exposing what you really are? A man who couldn’t keep his hands off his best friend’s little sister.”Tears burned my eyes. The shame I had buried for months rose up. “I love him, Mia. It started in the snowstorm. It’s real. Please don’t destroy us.”Ethan pulled me close, his hand trembling slightly on my waist. “We’ve fought so hard for this. Ryan finally accepted us. Don’t take that away.”Mia crossed her arms. “Pay up or ev

The dining hall went dead silent. Mia held her phone high, finger hovering over send. “One tap and everyone sees Ava getting fucked like a whore behind the boathouse.”Ryan’s face turned red with anger. “Mia, put the damn phone down!”I stepped forward, voice shaking. “Why are you doing this to us? We’re family.”Mia laughed coldly. “Family? You two have been sneaking around like animals this whole reunion. I deserve compensation for keeping quiet.”Ethan pulled me behind him, muscles tense. “Name your price. But if you hurt Ava, I swear—”“Ten thousand,” Mia snapped. “Cash. Tonight. Or the photos go viral in the family chat.”Tears burned my eyes. “Ethan… I can’t lose everyone. Not after we finally got acceptance.”Ethan turned, cupping my face. His thumb brushed my tear away. “Baby, look at me. We’re not paying her. We fight this together.”Ryan slammed his fist on the table. “Both of you, outside. Now. Mia, you stay right there.”We followed Ryan to the deck. The night air felt fre

The family meeting turned into pure chaos. Voices overlapped. Phones lit up the room with notifications. Mia sat back with a smug smile while everyone demanded answers.Ryan slammed his hand on the table again. “Enough! Mia, delete those photos right now. This is not how we handle family matters.”I stood beside Ethan, my hand shaking in his. “I never wanted it to come out like this. I love him. The snowstorm brought us together. It wasn’t planned.”Aunt Linda crossed her arms. “And you thought sneaking around during the reunion was the best way? While we’re all here celebrating?”Grandma raised her hand for silence. “Love is complicated. But respect is not. Explain yourselves properly.”Ethan stepped forward, voice calm but firm. “I love Ava. She’s not just a fling. She’s my future. I know it hurts you, Ryan. But I won’t apologize for how I feel about her.”Ryan looked between us, pain clear in his eyes. “I accepted you two. I really did. But hearing Mia describe it… knowing you were

The family hall descended into complete chaos. Phones lit up everywhere. Relatives shouted questions. Grandma tried to restore order, but her voice got lost in the noise.Ryan slammed his fist on the table. “Everyone quiet! Mia, hand over your phone. Now!”Mia backed away. “I didn’t send that new message. I swear. Someone else has the full video.”I clutched Ethan’s hand tighter, my heart racing. “Who would do this? We’ve been careful.”Ethan’s jaw clenched. “Whoever it is, they’ve been watching us the whole reunion. This is bigger than Mia.”Cousin Jake waved his phone. “The new message just hit the group chat. They want twenty thousand dollars or the video goes public tomorrow.”Aunt Linda gasped. “This is madness. Ava, Ethan — what have you dragged this family into?”I wiped fresh tears. “I’m sorry. I never wanted any of this. I love Ethan. The snowstorm brought us together. It felt real. It still feels real.”Grandma sat down slowly. “Love is one thing. But secrets and blackmail a

The family hall felt suffocating. Mia’s confession hung in the air like smoke. Jealousy. Years of unspoken feelings for Ethan. Financial desperation. It explained her actions, but it didn’t explain the second blackmailer who still held the full video.Ryan paced back and forth, fists clenched. “If it’s not Mia, then who? Who else was watching you two this entire reunion?”I shivered despite the warm room, gripping Ethan’s hand tighter. “The messages feel too personal. They know details only someone close would know.”Ethan’s jaw tightened. “The boathouse video. The timing. It’s someone who followed us deliberately.”Cousin Jake scrolled through his phone. “The new number is different. Completely untraceable. They just sent another short clip. It’s clear enough to cause damage.”Grandma’s voice cut through the tension, firm and tired. “We call the police immediately. This is no longer a family matter. This is criminal.”Aunt Linda shifted uncomfortably in her seat. “Could it be one of
