All Chapters of DANGEROUS LOVE, MY STEPFATHER'S SECRET: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

I felt like I was using all my strength to run as fast as I could, but I couldn't even catch up to Olivia and Oliver, who were sprinting ahead of me. This pregnancy had made me incredibly weak. I was gasping for breath. My lungs felt like balloons about to burst.I nearly collapsed on the floor. My palms were resting on my knees, while my back was bent ninety degrees. I needed extra oxygen for me and my baby.My back straightened when I heard gunshots ahead. I stumbled toward the source of the sound and found Oliver lying on the floor with a gunshot wound to his stomach. Olivia crouched beside him, panicked and stressed. Her palm pressed against her brother's stomach wound, trying to stop the bleeding. But it wouldn't work. Oliver was badly injured. He would die of blood loss if the medical team didn't arrive soon."You left me no choice. You kidnapped Claire and hurt her."Anthonio emerged from behind the wall. He was wearing the same vest as the police officers. His focus was solely

“They did this to you?”I clenched my jaw as Seth cupped Claire’s face and studied the bruises. I fucking wanted to punch Seth in the face for touching my woman so intimately, when I hadn’t touched her in weeks.“Olivia hit me. She took all her anger out on me.”“She knows for sure you didn’t kill her parents.”“That doesn’t help. She’s mad at me because I’m carrying Raviel’s baby.”“That’s a different story.”“That wasn’t what she was thinking when she hit me. She just wanted to vent all the anger she’s been holding in for years.”“I’m so sorry you had to go through all this, Claire.”What the hell was he doing? He said he had no feelings for Claire, but everything he did and said showed otherwise. He seemed to be in love with Claire.“I’m fine. Don’t worry.”I thought Claire had forgotten about me, and that she didn’t need me anymore. But my name suddenly slipped from her sexy lips.“Rave, is our baby okay?”“Yeah, the baby is fine. No internal injuries whatsoever.”“Thank goodness.

Three days passed, and Claire's condition improved. The bruises on her face had faded. She was back to normal. She was eager to talk to me, which was a relief. I wasn't the type of person who liked to talk and listen to the chatter of others around me, but I enjoyed hearing Claire chatter. I often just listened instead of joining in. I loved hearing her voice. When she stopped talking to me a while ago, I was so frustrated. I hated seeing Seth and Charless talking to Claire while she gave me the silent treatment."I have to take care of some things in Miami.""Are you going to Miami?"Her face twisted into a frown. She tossed the novel she'd been reading onto her lap.“Just two days. I promise I’ll be back soon and take you home.”“Home? We’re going back to the apartment, right?”I remained silent. I wasn’t going to spoil the surprise I had prepared for her.I was secretly building her a house. I had several vacant lots in LA, and one of them was perfect for a house. I knew what kind

Claire was true to her word. I couldn’t take my mind off her at all during my time in Miami. Seth had caught me daydreaming multiple times in the middle of important meetings with my clients. They were important people from Jordan who were going to buy my guns. Normally, I’d be eager to sell them my products and squeeze every penny out of them. But this afternoon I found myself in no mood to squeeze their money. I was very passive. My presentation felt boring and lackluster. I showed them samples of my weapons and provided them with manuals so they could read them on their own. I said very little today. All I wanted was to get back to LA quickly, pick Claire up from the hospital, and take her to our new home.I couldn't wait to see her reaction when I brought her to our new home. It was a brand new home. For our little family. There was no trace of Karina there at all. Claire would sleep in the master bedroom with me. I had also prepared a nursery and playroom for our unborn baby. I h

What's better for a broken-hearted guy than going to a club and having a good time?Tch, heartbreak?That seemed like something that couldn't possibly happen to me. But it was happening to me, right now.How ridiculous this all was. I laid eyes on my stepdaughter, fell in love with her, claimed her, knocked her up, and promised her I'd start a family with her. In the end, it was all nothing but a waste of time. I acted ridiculous all the way in Miami, even on the flight back to LA. I had my first deep talk with Seth. He must have thought I was ridiculous for saying all that. Men tend to be irrational when they're in love. I got irrational and said stupid things to Seth. He better not talk about it in front of me or I would punch him in the mouth."You alone?"“You have eyes, right? You can see there’s no one here.”“Sorry, maybe you were expecting someone.”“No, I wasn’t expecting anyone.”I took a swig of scotch straight from the bottle. The blonde in the tight, bright red dress hesi
