Deadly Affair with My Brother In-Law Chapter 9 : Leo Levine reminder
I stood there, watching them. The way Patrick touched Eva, the way their bodies moved in sync, it was like watching a performance—a sick, twisted performance meant to humiliate me. I felt my stomach churn, not from jealousy, but from the sheer audacity of it all.I lowered my phone, unable to stomach more. Without a word, I turned and walked away, leaving them to their sordid affair.My legs walked me into the kitchen, where I grasped a glass and turned on the faucet to fill it with water; my hands were shaking. I took a long sip, trying to rinse my mouth from that bitter taste, trying to cool down the boiling of angry feelings inside me.The house was quiet, except for the soft hum of the refrigerator. It was almost serene, a stark contrast to the chaos in my mind. I set the glass down; the clink echoed in the silence as I leaned against the counter, collecting my thoughts.After a few moments, I headed back to my room.Dominic POVMy phone buzzed in my pocket just as I was pouring m

Joanne's P.O.V.Anger simmered just below the surface as I paced the room, my mind racing with suspicion. Aurora had been slipping through my fingers, and it was starting to get on my nerves. She thought she could outsmart me, but she had no idea who she was dealing with. If she ever dared to cross me, I would make sure she understood the price of defiance.Aurora had two choices: either she obeyed me, or I delivered her straight into Leo Levine's hands. I knew how far Leo would go to get his revenge, and if Aurora didn't fall in line, she would learn firsthand what true fear was.Determination hardened my resolve as I marched toward Aurora's room, ready to remind her of exactly where she stood.I barely reached the top of the staircase when I saw Patrick leaning casually against the wall, arms crossed, with a smug smirk playing on his lips. His eyes met mine, and he straightened up, took a step closer."Joanne," he drawled, the same arrogance dripping from his voice. "Don't forget ou

Aurora's POVDominic's hand found mine as we drove through quiet, dimly lit streets. His fingers intertwined with mine in a warm firm hold that sent waves of comfort through me. The tension from the escape started to melt away, replaced by the steady rhythm of his presence beside me.He looked at me then, his eyes softening as they met mine. Without a word, he leaned in, pressing a soft kiss to my lips. It was unhurried, intentional, and steeped in a silent promise of protection and love. My heart swelled, and the turmoil of the past hours faded to the back of my mind.I leaned into his shoulder, feeling the heat of his body seep into mine. The hum of the engine, the soft swaying of the car, lulled me into a peaceful haze. For the first time in what felt like forever, I was at ease, wrapped in the safety of his arms.We pulled into the driveway, the car rolling to a gentle stop inside the garage. Dominic squeezed my hand one last time before releasing it-a silent reassurance as we pre

Aurora's POVThe warmth of Dominic's embrace slowly dissipated as I fell deeper into sleep, replaced by an unsettling coldness that crept into my dreams. I found myself standing in a darkened room, shadows swirling around me like an ominous storm. The room felt familiar, yet distorted, as if I were trapped in a twisted version of my own reality.I turned around, searching for an exit, but it seemed the walls closed in on me. My heart pounded hard against my chest, a drumbeat of fear in the void. Then out of nowhere, a sharp voice totally chilled the air."You can't hide forever, Aurora." It was unmistakably Patrick. His sinister manner sent a shiver down my spine as I spun around, looking in all directions in the dark."Leave me alone!" I screamed, my voice shaking with fear combined with defiance.Patrick materialized out of the dark, his eyes glinting with malice. A step closer, and I retreated against the cold, unyielding wall. There was no escape.Patrick's hand brushed against my

Aurora POV "Better," I whispered, managing to give him a small smile. "Thanks to you."He kissed my forehead gently before pulling back a little to look into my eyes. "Good. I need to head out for a business meeting, but I'll be back as soon as I can. Will you be okay here on your own?"I nodded, though the thought of being alone, even in his safe haven, made my stomach twist. But I knew he had responsibilities, and I couldn't hold him back."I am going to be okay," I assured him, forcing a fuller smile.Dominic threw me a glance that told me he was not convinced but dropped it. "I'll let the security team keep an eye on you while I'm away. If you need anything, don't hesitate to call me.""I will," I promised.He kissed me once more, a lingering touch that begged him not to go. Then, with reluctance, he rose from the bed, his muscles rippling with every movement. I couldn't help but admire him, even in this moment of departure. Dominic was strength and protection epitomized, and it r

Aurora POV I shook my head, giving him a small smile. "You're here now. That's all that matters."He brushed the stray lock of hair off my face, the touch gentle. "Let's get you something to eat, and then we can relax."As we walked toward the kitchen, Dominic's phone buzzed. He glanced at the screen, his expression turning into a slight frown. "Give me a second to take this," he said, stepping into the hallway.I nodded and went into the kitchen to fix something simple for us. The murmur of his low conversation was faintly audible, but I couldn't catch the words. I busied myself with setting out plates and drinks, trying not to dwell on whatever business had pulled him away even now.A sudden crash upstairs jolted me, and I dropped the glass in my hand. The sound of the shattering glass reverberated around the room as my heart raced furiously in my chest. I ran out to find Dominic already at the foot of the stairs, his eyes keen with concern."What was that?" I asked, shaking."I'l

Aurora's POVI hummed softly, putting the last touches on setting the table, the tantalizing aroma of the just-prepared meal hanging in the air. I settled for something simple but comfortable: roast chicken with vegetables, mashed potatoes, and a light salad. Dominic had been busy all day, and I wanted to make sure he could just relax and have a hearty meal.I looked toward the stairs, wondering what was taking him so long. He had gone upstairs shortly after arriving, and I could tell that something was bothering him. The curiosity was gnawing at me, but I decided not to press. Dominic would share when he was ready.Right on cue, I heard the creak of his feet on the stairs. I turned to see him enter the dining room; his face softened as our eyes met. He was lighter, somehow, as if a weight had been taken off him."Just in time," I smiled, gesturing toward the table. "Dinner's ready."Dominic moved across the room and tugged me gently from behind, wrapping his arms around me as I set t

Joanne POV I paced my room, my phone clutched in my hand so tightly my knuckles were white. For the tenth time, I redialed Aurora's number, putting the phone to my ear, ringing in my head. With each ring unanswered, my frustration continued to build. Why isn't she answering? My mind could think of a thousand reasons and none of them good.Aurora was supposed to be in Patrick's room, under control, where she belonged. Now, though, she was gone-vanished, rather. I tried calling once more, already my patience wore thin as for the third time I listened to her voicemail message. "Aurora, you better call me back," I hissed into the phone, ending the call. You're not getting away with this.My fingers drummed against the phone as I weighed my next move. Patrick finding out about Aurora's escape would be a complete disaster. I needed to sort this out before it spiraled out of control. Aurora thought she could outsmart me? I clenched my jaw, anger bubbling beneath the surface. She has no idea

Deadly Affair with My Brother In-Law Chapter 97
Aurora's POVThe party was extravagant, filled with guests from the Big Four clans. The laughter and ringing glasses echoed down the hall. I was stuck in a corner, watching Dominic as he had intense conversations with powerful men. I did not wish to interrupt him.Something was bothering me, though.My mom's phone number wasn't going through. I didn't text her all that much, so it was strange that she had a message, answering something I never even sent.Shivers ran down my spine.Could it be… Eva and Isabella?They already planted me with that necklace, so it looked like I had stolen it. What if they even messed with my phone? What if they texted my mom, pretending to be me?I gulped. What if something did happen to her?I had to get out of here. I had to go check on my mom.Dominic's POV"I can guarantee you I have the finest distributor channel in all of New York City. Perfecto.

Deadly Affair with My Brother In-Law Chapter 96
Aurora's POV Could it be that the same man who had once sworn to protect me was also hiding an ugly secret? My fingers trembled on the keyboard as I cut and pasted text into my paper. I knew I was playing with fire. But I had no other option. I had to know.The note on the door, the names on the list, the anonymous letter, each one hinted that there was a conspiracy so much larger than I could ever have imagined. And with each piece of evidence that I gathered, the more sinister the image became. I was very angry, and sad, and I was determined. I had to find out the truth about this secret no matter what it may cost me.In the quiet of my room, with nothing but the gentle hum of my laptop and the distant noises of the city outside my window, I swore silently. I would not allow these lost voices to fade into oblivion. I would learn the truth about them, even if it meant challenging the very authorities that had controlled my life.I couldn't help but wonder if someone, quite possibly

Chapter : The Leo Levine CallDOMINIC POV “Leo,” I said, keeping my tone measured, though a quiet urgency simmered beneath.“Dominic,” Leo’s voice crackled through, low and insistent. “I need you to come over to my estate later today. we need to conclusions about the matters I mentioned last time you visited, you no how urgent the matters are.”I frowned slightly. Leo’s summons were never casual. I closed my eyes briefly and replied, “I’m on my way. I’ll leave shortly.” I ended the call and sat back, my mind already churning with possibilities. Leo’s tone hinted at a brewing storm, something was amiss, and it was connected to all Patrick mess up.I looked around my spacious office, a modern sanctuary of power and precision. I looked at the table, files and papers on my desk, I need to go through them before I leave. I looked at the digital screens flashing confidential data, and the quiet hum of the air conditioner were all part of the daily ritual. But today, a sense of foreboding

Dominic's POV After breakfast, I returned to the muted elegance of our home, my mind reeling from the morning's persistent ringing and stealthy whispers. I entered the dining room to find Aurora's mother standing by the window, her face serene but with an undercurrent of suppressed disapproval. Her tone was measured when she finally spoke.You got in late last night, Dominic. We had all gone to bed well before that," she said to me, her eyes searching mine for an explanation I wasn't sure I wanted, or could give.I met her eyes calmly, knowing well enough not to let sentiment get in the way of the delicate balance of our arrangements. "I had business to attend to," I replied curtly, concealing the truth behind a mask of tranquility. There was little room for explanation in our business, where every minute had its own significance.Her eyes tightened slightly as she continued, "I have to discuss something… about Joanna. She threatened last time that she would tell Leo Levine that Auro

Dominic's POV Later that day, on my way back to my private office in my skyscraper headquarters, a peculiar envelope caught my eye on the gleaming mahogany desk. The embossed crest was unmistakable, a symbol of one of the most influential families in our universe , and the stylish calligraphy inside read like a proclamation. an invitation to a birthday party attended by all the Big Four families. I clutched it delicately, a shiver of anticipation running through me as I realized that this evening's gathering was more than a social function. It was a stage for power plays, allegiances to be re-made, and old scores to be settled.I folded the invitation into my pocket, already planning in advance on how I would capitalize on this. However, I did not have long to indulge myself in scheming, as there was another problem that had to be taken care of, Aurora's health.

Aurora's POVAfter eating that morning, My mom was already back in her room. I want to meet her to discuss what Joanna has just mentioned on the call earlier. I walked through the hallway. I was almost close to my mother's room door when I had her speaking to someone on the phone, the voice sounds familiar. But it seems like my mom had her own plans, before I could open the door Dominic called me, “Aurora please I need to speak with you", I have been looking around for you but I didn't know you're here. Dominic's voice was low and it sounds like something is really bothering him. He took my arms. When I looked into his eyes I saw something like fair written all over his face, “Aurora, please don't do anything without telling me,” I overheard you talking to someone on a phone call last night, I know that you're up to something. "I know that Leo Levine will still come after me for hiding you from him but I want to control the situation,” I still have everything in control just be pati

Patrick cursed under his breath. With a frustrated groan, he tore himself away from Isabella, grabbing his phone. He saw Eva’s name flashing again.He kissed Isabella one last time, deep and slow, as if he couldn’t bear to leave. Then, he pulled back, his forehead resting against hers. "I have to go now. It’s urgent."Isabella pouted but let him go, watching as he stood up and grabbed his clothes. "Come back soon," she purred.Patrick didn’t reply, his mind was already shifting back to business. He had a feeling whatever Eva needed to tell him wasn’t good.They drove home, his mind still clouded with thoughts of Isabella, but Eva’s urgent call kept nagging at him. He knew she wouldn’t have called unless it was something serious. As soon as he pulled up in the driveway, he stepped out of the car, adjusting his jacket as he made his way inside.The moment he entered the house, Eva was already standing by the staircase, arms crossed, a sharp glare in her eyes. “So you wouldn’t have come

Isabella poured another glass of whiskey, her fingers slightly unsteady as she leaned against the bar. The bottle was nearly empty, but she didn’t care. The warm burn in her throat and the dizzy haze in her mind made everything feel lighter, more distant. She tilted her head back, taking another long sip before setting the glass down with a heavy thud."You know, Patrick," she slurred, her lips curling into a lazy smirk, "I think we make a good team. Don’t you?"Patrick sat on the couch, his shirt unbuttoned at the top, a lazy grin on his face. His own glass of whiskey hung loosely from his fingers as he took another sip. The warmth of the alcohol had settled deep in his veins, clouding his judgment, making him care less about everything else except the woman in front of him."Of course, Isabella," he muttered, his voice slower than usual. "We’re the perfect team. You get rid of Aurora, and I get to destroy Dominic. Everyone wins."Isabella laughed, the sound soft and a little breathl
