All Chapters of Marrying His Sister, Loving Her Brother : Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

The penthouse carried an unfamiliar stillness, the kind that settled into walls and refused to leave. Saint stood by the kitchen island, his fingers tracing idly along the edge of a report he had been drafting on and off for days. Three weeks of silence had become a physical weight, pressing down on every hour he spent alone in rooms that used to feel warm. Nicolas had simply refused to come home. Not that he didn't know where he was. He was safe staying with Aaron but just the thought of it alone caused his emotions to be all over the place. But what had happened had happened. There was no going back. What he needed to do was to simply focus on his decision and ensure everything went well. Right at that moment, the front door slammed hard enough to rattle the hallway and instantly drew back his attention. Nicolas entered without knocking. He looked like a version of himself carved down to the bone. His cheekbones were sharper and shadows appeared deeper beneath his eyes. He had got

Simon leaned back in his chair with his phone pressed to his ear. "We finally have a name. The hair particles matched." "Are you for real?"Sinon nodded. "That's huge." Mike's excitement carried clearly through the line. "Seriously, Simon, you're incredible at this." "Shut the praises." "I am being serious though." Mike grinned. "Don't get ahead of yourself. It's a suspect, not a conviction yet. I still have to bring him in." "And I am proud of you regardless. You are making progress."Simon huffed a small, reluctant smile, though he said nothing to that. "Are you going to tell your boss about it?" "Not necessarily. We would just have to wait and see. I mean...I don't know if he's gonna be happy with me cracking the case to this extent...I don't get why he won't be..." Simon then paused, realising he had been rambling all along. He exhaled, rubbing his face. "I really don't know. He has always been against me doing this and there is no way I can c

Seraphina stepped further into the room, her shimmering gown trailing behind her like a fallen cloud. She paused, her gaze sweeping over the furniture. A small, hopeful smile touched her lips. This was the first time Nicolas had invited her into his bedroom at his parents' mansion.To her, the gesture felt like a bridge being built, a sign that the distance between them was finally closing. "It is such a masculine space," she murmured, a little bit airy. "I love how you've arranged everything."As she turned, a glint of gold caught her eyes. She looked down to see two rings scattered across the floor, lying abandoned near the foot of the bed. She almost leaned down, her brow furrowing in confusion.Weren’t these their engagement rings? "Seraphina, please sit down and make yourself comfortable. I need a long shower to clear my head before the ceremony."Seraphina looked up at him, her eyes wide and blinking once more. She forced a smile, "Of course. I don't want to be a bother

The last of the guests had finally made their way out nearly two hours later. The whole place was quiet while the staff moved to clear away the remnants of the celebration. Only family remained, gathered near the entrance of the Vale mansion thereafter. "We did well today, didn't we? It was a wonderful one, right?" Diana said, smiling. Everyone else nodded as exhaustion was visible across their faces. "It was a wonderful one indeed." Vincent agreed, looking briefly at Diana who immediately had her eyes set on Dominic instead and smiling brightly at him. Dominic returned the gesture and tapped her hand gently before looking at the other family in front of him. "You are both welcome to stay the night," Dominic offered, gesturing toward the guest wing. "No reason to drive back this late."Vincent shook his head instantly. "We appreciate the offer but I think it's better we head home."Olivia's expression fell. She had clearly been inclined to accept but after Vincent jumped r

Simon stood and declared confidently. "Commander, Reyes. I have managed to bring in the suspect connected with the murder of Sampson Voss. His name is Arthur Vance."Reyes exhaled, rubbing his forehead. "Did you inform me you were going to do this before you did?"Simon blinked. He didn't. "I am sorry, sir. But I needed to act very swiftly before he would escape our hands. I intended to let you in on the situation later..." "Simon, when will you stop being proud?? Have you forgotten that I am your superior here? You needed my permission before carrying out issues like this on your own! What the fuck is wrong with you?" Simon's fingers curled into fists right behind him while he chose his words perfectly in his head before voicing them out. "I am sorry, sir. I only did what I thought was right." "Really? So what evidence do you have that he..." he pointed at Arthur, "...did this?" "Forensics found a hair follicle at the scene, and the DNA matched him." "And you b
