I love her, Susan

2025-03-02 17:21:26Going back to Daniel, who was waiting anxiously for her after everything that had happened, was difficult. She washed her face several times, trying to hide the redness in her eyes. She didn’t want him to see her like that and start asking questions. If she told him she had argued with Harry, it would only turn into another problem. She grabbed a few bottles from the kitchen and returned to the music room.
The moment he saw her walk in with a smile, his heart settled. She sat close beside him, as if needing his warmth, and he slipped an arm around her waist while she rested her head on his shoulder.
"Everything okay?"
"Yes… just a little tired. Why do you always smell so good?"
"Because I shower every day."
Deanna laughed.

The woman standing in front of him, staring in astonishment and confusion, looked so much like Deanna—the same hair, the same eyes, even the way she carried herself. And that same incredulous gaze. She couldn’t have been more than ten years older than him, though she looked younger. The other woman, however, wore a wide smile, her white hair adding to the warmth of her joyful expression.Daniel Crusher was intimidated.When Deanna had told them she had gotten married, why, and to whom, her mother had gone pale, screamed, gotten angry, and ranted endlessly. Her grandmother, on the other hand, couldn’t stop congratulating her and making a fuss.“He’d better come here and face us!” her mother had demanded.“Yes, yes, bring him, Deanna! I want

After his argument with Deanna, everything became difficult for Harry. Work bored him, Laura bored him, even music started to irritate him. He couldn’t get her tearful eyes out of his head, the sadness in her expression. Guilt—he felt a guilt that tormented him. Over the past few days, he had tried to call her multiple times, but he never even got as far as dialing her number. What would he say? How could he possibly apologize?Laura didn’t know what to do or who to turn to. The marriage she had wanted so badly was falling apart. If this continued, it was certain that once the baby was born, everything would be over. The only thing she could think of was reaching out to Camila. Maybe she could talk to her son and figure out what was wrong with him.She arrived at the house unannounced. Camila was with Arlen

Another social event, with its protocols and formalities. Another reminder that she didn’t truly belong in that extravagant circle. Her confidence wavered under the pressure of making a good impression—because Daniel’s reputation depended on it. And Deanna had to meet the expectations to avoid tarnishing it.“It’s like playing a role, just think of it as being in a play,” she told herself, trying to convince herself that, eventually, she would get used to this world. If only she didn’t have to go through everyone’s critical scrutiny. Not long ago, none of this had mattered to her—it made no difference, because it was supposed to end. He had warned her from the start: being married to Daniel Crusher came with a lot more baggage.But now that everything had taken an unexpe

Leonard Reed, head of a multimedia conglomerate, was the owner of those dark eyes."Is that Crusher's wife?" he asked his assistant as soon as they walked in."Yes. She’s much younger than him. They got married not long ago."Reed knew all the gossip and rumors that had been circulating for months—his wife, Alice, had made sure to keep him informed of everything she heard. A younger woman, beautiful, a university student, and an opportunist. But seeing her in person was an entirely different experience. There was something strangely familiar about her, though he couldn’t quite place why. Maybe he had seen her at another event before, but he couldn’t remember.Reed was respected among his peers for his charisma and the impulsiveness that somehow always led to

Harry scanned the room, searching desperately for Daniel. He knew exactly what would happen the moment his brother realized what Reed was doing. But Daniel was nowhere in sight. Harry had to do something—he had to get Deanna away from that man, and he had to do it now.Yet, he remained frozen. His body screamed at him to move, but his mind held him back. Deep in a dark, unspoken corner of his thoughts—the place he didn’t dare acknowledge—he was waiting for Daniel to appear and let his temper explode. Because he knew his brother well, and his jealousy wouldn’t be directed at Leonard.Daniel, however, wasn’t in the ballroom. He was locked in an adjacent meeting room with his father, several board members, and the finance team, engaged in a heated debate. Of all nights, this had to be the one where they bombarded him with complaints

Leaving an event like that was a privilege only someone like him could afford—someone who didn’t care about gossip. He opened the door for her, letting her step out first, and then closed it behind them, leaving Camila standing there, caught between shock and indignation.He took her hand again as they crossed the lobby toward the elevators. He didn’t say a word, and Deanna didn’t ask. She simply followed. That seemed to be what he wanted—silence. She knew he was fighting a battle within himself.The ride to the top floor was just as quiet. He held onto her hand the entire time, not letting go until they reached his office doors. He pushed them open and stepped inside.“I’m sorry,” he said, leaning against the doorway.“Tell me

Daniel’s shadows lit up when he was alone with her.They didn’t go back home; the kids were staying with Susan again anyway. All those years he had spent alone after Emily died felt so distant now, as if his life had a gap where time had stopped and the darkness of grief had covered everything.Now, Deanna filled it all with her light.His office had once been his hideout, a place where his sorrow could consume him without anyone seeing. The entire top floor of the building belonged to him, fully equipped, even with a small room that was now empty and filled with old boxes."Your office feels like an apartment…" she murmured, glancing around."In a way, it was."They were lyin

Laura’s face was losing color as she listened to Beverly, her fingers tightening around the fabric of her dress.“Why are you telling me all this?” she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.“I’m not going to play innocent with you… That’s not my style. You know, like everyone else, that I’ve always been interested in Daniel.” She paused, watching Laura’s expression carefully. “You’re her friend, and I do feel for you, but it’s only a matter of time before your husband decides he can’t hold back anymore. At the office, he treats his brother with contempt—avoids him, ignores him. And for what? I don’t think it makes sense for them to be fighting over a woman.” She leaned in slightly. “Let’s be honest, Laura. You don’t want to separate from Harry

And Daniel wasn't the only Crusher dealing with doubts and uncertainties. Harry was also still learning, but for him, the learning curve was different: he had left behind a toxic relationship, devoid of affection and love, for one that was completely opposite. And sometimes, just sometimes, the resentment from those times would leave a lump in his throat.Even though Amanda was about to give birth, Harry still hadn't taken that next step in their relationship: marriage. He truly wanted to marry the mother of his child, but he had bitter memories from his last marriage that were holding him back.“I understand, Deanna, it's not easy for him to accept that things have changed,” Amanda said one warm afternoon as they sat together enjoying the last rays of sunshine.“That child was very lucky to have found you. I guess he still has a lot of open wounds.”“Yes... but he also became a happy and funny man. He's nothing like the Harr
A Wife For My Brother I love you not for who you are, but for who I am when I am with you.
For the other grandfather, the more worldly one, everything was new. He couldn't share Charles's vision regarding children and grandchildren. He had only just learned to be a father to Deanna, when she no longer needed him to grow up. And he was still learning. Grandchildren? That was in another dimension.He had spent half his life immersed in resentment, hatred, and self-punishment. He reflected his mother's rejection in the women around him: his wife and daughters. He carried the unhappiness of lost love and felt nothing but fleeting moments.And in the blink of an eye, he had a family and a stable relationship that complemented him. He and Susan were something neither of them suspected or planned; they grew closer after Deanna and Daniel remarried, at family gatherings, in casual conversations. Until one day he realized he couldn't stop thinking about her.Old Leonard dusted off his true charm to win her over; because this woman was not like the others, this

He held her hand as they waited for their turn for the ultrasound. One of her feet kept tapping the floor, causing her knee to rise and fall.Several other couples were waiting, some women alone, and they looked at them curiously. You couldn't help but notice the 15-year age difference, especially Daniel's increasingly noticeable gray hair. And, for some reason, Deanna's face looked more cheerful, fresher, and younger.“Don't be nervous,” she said, giving him a small smile.He just looked at her and smiled back. He was always nervous for her and their children; he couldn't help it. Even if everything was perfect and normal, Daniel always worried. It was just the way he was.Finally, it was time to go in, and the specialist welcomed them with everything ready.“Would you like to know the sex of your babies?” she asked.“Yes.”“Very well... Then let's check how they are first.”She

Deanna continued singing throughout her pregnancy, but it became increasingly difficult. Carrying two children growing inside her and still shining on stage, captivating the audience with her voice and stage presence, was becoming difficult. Daniel accompanied her to every performance, proud of his wife and excited about the belly that grew every day.“I can't do this anymore,“ she told Leonard as she stepped off the stage.Wagner's Tristan and Isolde was the opera Marcus had chosen for that season.“Don't worry, I'll talk to Marcus and we'll find a replacement for you. It's time for you to rest, baby,” he said worriedly.He held her hand as if she were going to fall or fall apart. For Reed, it was a new experience. Despite Alice's pregnancies, he had never been involved in anything like this. But now he could see his grandchildren growing inside his daughter and was experiencing all kinds of emotions.Deanna was so touched

When the last page of the document was signed, Harry could finally breathe deeply. It was over. Laura tried to fight it, but she had nothing left; none of the Crushers supported her. And the first thing he did with his freedom restored was to go and bring back the mother of his child. They settled back into Amanda's small, old apartment, for the time being. The house had gone to Laura, and Harry had no interest in going back there.And although Emma was legally in the care of her grandparents, she moved in with them. And for the first time, she was able to experience what it was like to have a loving family. It was easy for her to bond with Amanda, the little girl got along with everyone, especially when she received kisses and hugs and heard stories before going to bed. Having the same person take her to daycare by the hand and then pick her up to spend some time at the park soon became a habit for the little girl.Amanda asked Deanna to be her son's godmother and Dan

“Well, what shall we do? Shall we have dinner?“ asked Leonard.“Please, I'm starving...” replied Deanna.“Get changed and let's go the Liverpool, my friend has booked us a table.”“Are you coming, Harry?“ asked Daniel.“Harry said he had things to do, but we'll take Emma,” replied Deanna.He rushed out with his phone in one hand and his car keys in the other. He had no idea what was going on, all he understood was that the envelope he was now carrying inside his jacket gave him the freedom he so desperately wanted. Freedom without fear.How had Deanna gotten it? He didn't understand either. All he could see was the road ahead. As he drove, he realized what he was feeling, what he really needed. It wasn't an impulse or a consolation. He wanted to see her, hear her, be with her, beg her for forgiveness and plead with her.When he arrived at the address on his GPS, he got out of

Once again, the Ambassador raised the curtain, the lights shone brightly, and the seats awaited the audience. It was another opening night in the city. Some were eager to see her again, others went out of curiosity, and she continued to feel nervous. But this time, the entire family was present, even Camila.She could no longer make excuses; she was the wife of his eldest son. And to Charles' surprise, she hadn't put up much resistance; it seemed that she was beginning to accept Deanna's place. Harry also got his tickets, which caused another argument at home, but he didn't care what Laura had to say. He dressed Emma and they left; he didn't know how long the girl would be able to sit still, but at least they would see her for a while.In her dressing room, there was a bouquet of roses from Daniel, her costume hanging on a hanger, and the makeup artist putting the finishing touches on her. Her stomach was a ball of nerves and her heart was filled with happiness. She ha

Daniel arrived home from work to find Leonard sitting in his living room, looking very relaxed and comfortable, but Deanna was nowhere to be seen.“What are you doing here?” he asked.“Deanna called me and asked me to come over.”“For the premiere?”Leonard just shrugged.“Are they here?”“Nope...”“And Susan?”“At home.”The door opened and Jonathan ran in, followed by Ethan and Naomi and finally Deanna.“Hi, sweetie,” Leonard greeted her.Strangely, the children barely said hello and quickly went up to their rooms. Her face said nothing; she was grim, somber. She looked at them and made them uncomfortable.“Deanna, what's wrong?“ Daniel noticed something strange.“I need to talk to you. Can we go to your office?”“Yes...”What was going on?

Deanna searched her mind, but she couldn't remember anyone named Amanda, not even from college. But from the way she asked about Harry and looked at Emma, she knew him.“Harry's fine... I saw him a few hours ago.”“Emma has grown so much,” she said, but something in her voice sounded wrong.“Excuse me... are you okay?”“To be honest, no... I sound like a stalker, don't I? I'm sorry... I couldn't resist the urge... I came to town to do some research and see my doctor, and I was passing by... I know I shouldn't have done it.”She was confused. The woman spoke to her naturally, even confidently. However, it was clear from her expression and tone of voice that she wasn't quite right. She looked at her belly as she caressed it with one hand.“I'm sorry for all the trouble I caused Daniel too. He's been so good and kind, he cared about me... About us. If it hadn't been for him, Harry would have
