Emily's Dilemma: Seduced by Billionaire Brothers Chapter 40
A ghastly pall settled over the grand ballroom as the projector cast its unwelcome spectacle, the luminous screen demanding the attention of every glittering eye. The air that was once thick with jovial chatter and the sweet strains of violin and cello, had soured, the collective breath of the gathered guests seized by the unfolding drama on the projector screen. Jackson and Emily in that enclosed space, his fingers tipping her chin while they shared a knowing look even though no one could hear what they were saying, it was a scandal. The murmur rose like a tempest swell as the crowd pieced together the story—the unflinching display of betrayal written in the bold font of live feed, broad for all to see.Ethan stood, glaring at the screen as he felt all eyes on him. He couldn’t bear to look at his parents, his father especially, tutting his head in disappointment, what the hell was Jackson doing? The young boy was too much of a daredevil for him to comprehend. The room blurred in Eth

"She's sustained a considerable head injury," one of the doctors reported after what felt like an eternity after Emily was brought to the hospital . His voice was thick, his beard covered face remained passive as if unmoved by the weight of his profession's battles—hopeful yet grounded. Jackson felt shattered while Ethan looked on passive, his face bearing no emotion."It's too soon to tell, but there is a possibility she might experience some memory loss." The doctor went onThe news settled like a shroud over the brothers, Jackson and Ethan, who stood together in the sterile hallway, their earlier animosity supplanted by shared concern.“What’s the possibility that she might not experience any memories loss” Jackson piped in, his face smeared with concern. The first two buttons of his shirt unbuttoned as he ran a nervous hand through his hair.“We can’t tell until she wakes up, we still have to run some test on her because it looks like something like this has happened before so it

“Nooo, God noooo” Anita’s richly jeweled hands trembled slightly as she held the letter. The crispy paper felt delicate in her hands like she should just rip it up, but yet it felt heavy. The ink was bright and sharp, unable to lose focus to her blurry eyes, she had barely skimmed through the contents but she had gotten the gist already and she couldn’t believe her eyes.She skimmed through the letter again, hoping she had read wrongly but the words remained the same, the consequences of her snooping playing in her face. She should’ve minded her business, gone shopping or whatever it was that kept her busy when her anxiety skyrocketed. It was all Emily’s fault, always happening to be a damsel in distress causing the brothers to rally around her and be at her every beck and call while she got nothing, but a stupid letter slapping reality onto her face. Snooping through her father’s study was something she always did as a teenager, it was mostly out of boredom which later morphed into

“Emily, how you feeling?” Ethan asked, his heart tucked unto his sleeve as he approached her with hope shimmered in his eyes. She looked at him, a flicker of recognition in her eyes and she took the hand he held out to her.“A little confused” she said to him “What happened?”“You don’t remember?” Jackson said this time walking forward and she looked at him, her confusion doubling. She looked from Ethan to the weird guy speaking to her before she pointed at him, consumed by her curiousity, she asked“Who are you?”The air stilledJackson paused, a storm collecting within the lines of his chiseled face.“What!” He said in shock, dividing his pained expression between Ethan and the doctor who was studying Emily now“It’s Jackson” Ethan said and Emily shook her head painfully “I don’t remember, I don’t remember much. It’s like that part of my memory is blocked”Jackson rushed towards her now, the strangeness of her expression sending daggers through his chest, he picked her hands “what

*Some college years ago*It was late fall in Brown University and the evening bustled with the thrum of anticipation as the annual Fall Fest gathered momentum. The university grounds became a patchwork of vibrant sights as chapters shifted from late summer narratives to tales wrapped in crisp parchment of fall. Laughter danced on the cool breeze that weaved between red-brick buildings and cast amber leaves in whimsical pirouettes to the ground.A senior year Ethan and a sophomore Jackson found themselves in the heart of this revelry, standing outside the ivy-laced entrance of the old Assembly Hall, now ablaze with strings of fairy lights and pulsing with the beat of music that spilled out onto the steps. Underneath the glow, their sibling resemblance was more pronounced—their shared grin, the same skyward tilt to their chins. But still that undercurrent rivalry that always kept them just a fraction apart brewed in their midst—a silent battle of charm and wit, forged deeper by their mu

Jackson Hatton stepped through the wrought-iron gates of the cemetery, the solemn rows of headstones standing like silent custodians of the past. He moved with purpose, yet each step felt heavy, like he was walking against a relentless tide, a bouquet of flowers at his hands, red roses. She loved roses.The skies above him were a dim canvas, the clouds interwoven so tightly that the sun's efforts to puncture through were in vain, almost mimicking his mood. The sadness that had enveloped him these past few days were hard to penetrate through.It’d been three years since Amelia Sinclair died, three years since he’d lost his best friend. Time had ruthlessly marched on, but the wound in Jackson’s heart had resisted the urge to heal. He wandered amidst the graves until he found hers—a marker that bore her name like a whisper from lips long silenced.“Amelia Sinclair” he said loudly, he had almost forgotten what her name sounded like, the name that once danced on his lips, drawing laughter

“Jackson?” Emily repeated, willing a memory but nothing was forthcoming“Ethan’s my brother” Jackson added and Emily only stared although the shock was evident on her face.“Oh” she said, so simple in fact and looking him over dressed impeccably in a suit. “I mean it should be obvious, but then again it’s not”“I totally get what you mean” Jackson said. “Do you want to take a walk?” He asked her, she was about to respond when she looked him over again.“Aren’t you going somewhere, you’re all dressed up” she said “Oh yea, work but it doesn’t matter. I mean, I have the largest shares, I practically own the company I don’t have to be there all the time” She nodded with a smile, falling in step with Jackson “That’s great, you can stay with me then. It’s been boring these past few days since I left the hospital”“Why so?”“Ethan always has to be at work and it’s exhausting to do anything else” she said, pausing for a while and turning to face Jackson almost immediately “If Ethan’s your b

Emily’s heart went thundering behind her chest, hair tucked behind her ears and a slow blush creeping unto her cheeks but safely hidden behind the large sunglasses she wore, and a scarf around her face as she slid into the passenger seat of Jackson’s car.Jackson had a puzzled look on his face as he studied and she read it immediately“Word on the street is that I’m famous” she answered to his unspoken question “So where are we going?” she strapped her seat belt in place.“Wherever you want to” he said to her “What do you feel like doing?”Emily thought for a moment, purposely causing the wheels to spiral in her head, what did she want to do? No one has ever really asked her that before, her heart melted, she felt seen and by this man she wasn’t really sure how she was involved with him. She had tried so hard to fill his face now with the gaps in her memories but it didn’t fit, it didn’t feel real and Ethan being distant wasn’t helping at all. He had left that morning without even wor
