Married To My Ex Husband's Billionaire Brother Chapter 86 Traitor
BerniceI stared at the screen in front of me, my heart pounding in my chest. The leaked documents, the ones I had carefully crafted and distributed, stared back at me, the evidence undeniable. The unique markings, the specific budget figures - they all pointed to one person.Martin.I sat back in my chair, my mind reeling. Martin, the man who had been my staunchest ally since I joined the company, the one who had championed my appointment as project leader. It didn't make sense. Why would he do this? What could possibly motivate him to betray my father, to betray the company he had served for so long?I thought back to all the times he had offered me his support, his guidance. The way he had welcomed me with open arms, making me feel like I belonged. Had it all been a lie? A manipulation tactic to keep me under his thumb, to blind me to his true intentions?Anger surged through me, hot and bitter. I wanted to march into his office right then and there, to demand answers and unleash m

BerniceI eyed Judy warily as she sat perched on the edge of my desk, her expression inscrutable. With the revelation of Martin's betrayal still fresh in my mind, I couldn't help but be suspicious of her intentions. Stephen Corporation had already been infiltrated by one traitor; who was to say there wasn't a second?"What did you want to discuss, Judy?" I asked, keeping my voice carefully neutral.She slid a document across the desk towards me—the same one I had given her as part of my trap. My stomach clenched. Had she seen through my trick?"There's a problem with this," she said, her expression grave.I forced myself to stay calm, to not let the panic show on my face. "What kind of problem?"Judy tapped the papers with a perfectly manicured finger. "Data errors," she said, her gaze piercing. "I found some data errors in the version you provided me, Bernice. Discrepancies that don't match up with the official figures."For a moment, I couldn't breathe. I had been so careful, so met

Bernice The casino's cacophony of lights and sounds assaulted my senses when we stepped inside. Slot machines clanged and flashed, while the air buzzed with a mixture of excitement and desperation. We weaved through the throngs of gamblers, our eyes darting from table to table. It didn't take long to spot Martin. He was at a high-stakes poker table, surrounded by a group of men whose expressions ranged from eager anticipation to predatory glee. He was hunched over, his hands trembling as he placed his bets. "There he is," I whispered to Christian. We positioned ourselves at a nearby slot machine, close enough to observe without drawing attention. I pretended to study the flashing screen, all the while keeping my gaze locked on Martin. Martin's demeanor was frantic, his eyes darting around the table as he picked up his cards. The other players watched him maliciously. "Come on, Martin, you can't back down now!" one of the men jeered loudly. "Yeah, Martin! Go big or go home!" ano

Bernice Christian and I watched the men steer a broken Martin towards a hidden door at the back of the casino. The name "Mr. Vincent" seemed like someone we were looking for. "We need to follow them," I whispered, already moving to tail the group at a discreet distance. Christian nodded, "Agreed. But first, be careful." We wove through the crowded casino floor, keeping our eyes locked on Martin and his captors. They passed through the secret door, disappearing from view. As we approached the entrance, a burly guard stepped out, blocking our path. "Private party," he grunted, his eyes hard and unfriendly. "Members only." I opened my mouth to protest, but Christian laid a warning hand on my arm. "We understand," he said smoothly, flashing a disarming smile. "Our mistake." He steered me away, his grip firm on my elbow. "We need another way in," he murmured, his eyes scanning the surroundings. "A frontal approach is too risky." I bit my lip, my mind racing. And then an idea struck

BerniceMy heart pounded against my ribs as I navigated the dimly lit corridors of the VIP area, the waitress uniform clinging to my skin like a disguise that could be ripped away at any moment.The air was thick with the cloying scent of expensive cigars and even more expensive secrets, the muffled sounds of conversation and clinking glasses drifting from behind closed doors.I kept my head down, trying to blend in with the other servers as they scurried about their duties. But even as I moved with purpose, my mind raced with the implications of what Christian and I had just witnessed. Martin, drowning in debt and desperation, at the mercy of these shadowy figures and their nefarious schemes.A burly man in a black suit intercepted me, his eyes narrowing as he took in my unfamiliar face. "You, girl," he barked, his voice rough with authority. "Take this tray into the back room. Mr. Vincent is expecting his drinks."I nodded mutely, my tongue dry as sandpaper. This was it, the opportu

BerniceVincent studied me for a long moment, his gaze sharp and assessing. "I don't believe I've seen you before, my dear," he mused, his tone deceptively light. "Are you new?"I nodded, swallowing hard against the lump of terror in my throat. "Yes, sir. Just started this week.""And your name?" His eyes bored into mine, as if trying to peel back the layers of my disguise to the truth beneath."Sarah," I lied, the name tripping off my tongue before I could think better of it.Vincent's gaze didn't waver, his scrutiny so intense I felt like a butterfly pinned to a board. The silence stretched between us, taut and suffocating, until I couldn't bear it anymore."I'm sorry, sir," I blurted out, my voice high and strained. "Is there something wrong? Did I do something to offend you?"For a moment, Vincent didn't respond. Then, slowly, a faint smile curved his lips. But there was no warmth in it, only a kind of bitter nostalgia."Your eyes," he murmured, almost to himself. "They remind me

BerniceI took a moment to steady my breath, the darkness of the utility closet cocooning us from the chaos outside. Christian’s strong arms wrapped around me, grounding me in the moment."That was close," I whispered, my voice trembling slightly in the stillness of the utility room. "Too close.""I know," Christian murmured, his breath warm against my ear. "But you're safe now. I've got you."I nodded, letting myself sink into the comfort of his embrace for a moment longer before pulling away. Even in the dimness, I could feel the intensity of his gaze, the heat of it scorching my skin like a physical touch."What happened out there?" I asked, "How did you know I was in trouble?"Christian sighed, running a hand through his hair. "I noticed something was off when I was about to follow you into Vincent's room. One of his goons was watching the door a little too closely for my liking…I couldn't risk him blowing your cover, so I stayed behind to keep an eye on him. Sure enough, the bast

BerniceChristian's chuckle was dark and knowing, his breath hot against my ear. "You're right," he murmured, his fingers toying with the hem of my skirt. "We shouldn't. But God, Bernice, I don't think I can stop myself."Christian's hands were everywhere, his touch igniting a fire beneath my skin. I melted into his embrace, my fingers clutching at his shoulders as he claimed my mouth in a searing kiss.His hand slid higher, skimming over the sensitive skin of my inner thigh. I bit back a moan, my hips rocking instinctively against his touch."Please," I whispered, my voice raw with need.He groaned, his control snapping like a frayed tether. His fingers delved beneath the lace of my panties, finding me slick and ready. I cried out, my head falling forward onto his shoulder as he stroked me with a skilled, deliberate touch."You're so wet," he rasped, his voice tight with strain. "Bernie... I want to watch you shatter."His words were my undoing. I flew apart with a muffled scream, my

Married To My Ex Husband's Billionaire Brother Epilogue
BerniceThe gentle sea breeze ruffled my hair as I stood on the balcony of our Hamptons beach house, watching the sun dip below the horizon. Ten years had passed since that first charity gala, a decade filled with more love, laughter, and fulfillment than I could have ever imagined."Penny for your thoughts?" Christian's voice came from behind me, as familiar and comforting as ever.I turned, smiling as he handed me a glass of wine. "Just reflecting. It's hard to believe it's been ten years."Christian nodded, leaning against the railing beside me. "Ten amazing years. And you know what? I have a feeling the best is still to come."As if on cue, the sound of children's laughter floated up from the beach below. I looked down to see Hope, now fourteen, chasing her younger siblings, seven-year-old Ethan and five-year-old Olivia, through the surf. Melissa and Alex's twins, eight-year-old Sophie and Lucas, were building an elaborate sandcastle nearby."Should we call them in for dinner?" I
Married To My Ex Husband's Billionaire Brother Chapter 196 A Night of Stars and Hope
BerniceThe grand ballroom of the Plaza Hotel buzzed with excitement as New York's elite mingled, their designer gowns and tuxedos glittering under the chandeliers. I smoothed down the front of my own gown - a midnight blue creation that Cathy had insisted I wear - and scanned the room, making sure everything was in place for our charity gala."Relax, Bernie," Christian murmured in my ear, his hand warm on the small of my back. "Everything looks perfect."I turned to him, drinking in the sight of him in his tuxedo. Even after all these years, he still took my breath away. "I know, I know. I just want tonight to be perfect. We've worked so hard on this."Christian smiled, pressing a quick kiss to my temple. "It will be perfect. The Edward Hamilton Foundation's first major fundraiser - how could it be anything but?"I nodded, taking a deep breath to calm my nerves. We had spent months planning this gala, bringing together all our friends and family to support the foundation's mission of
Married To My Ex Husband's Billionaire Brother Chapter 195 Love Blooms Anew
BerniceThe soft spring breeze carried the scent of blooming flowers through Central Park as I watched Melissa and Alex stroll hand in hand ahead of me. Christian walked beside me, pushing Hope's stroller as our daughter babbled happily, pointing at the colorful tulips lining the path."They look happy," I murmured to Christian, nodding towards Melissa and Alex.Christian smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "They do. It's nice to see Melissa like this, isn't it? So carefree and content."I nodded, feeling a warmth spread through my chest. After everything Melissa had been through, seeing her find happiness with Alex felt like a small miracle.As we approached the Bethesda Fountain, I noticed Alex becoming increasingly fidgety. He kept reaching into his pocket, his face a mix of nervousness and excitement. I nudged Christian, raising an eyebrow in silent question. He nodded, a knowing smile playing on his lips."You knew, didn't you?" I whispered accusingly.Christian shrugged,
Married To My Ex Husband's Billionaire Brother Chapter 194 Cathy was filing for divorce!
BerniceThe shrill ring of my phone pierced through the peaceful silence of our bedroom at an ungodly hour. I fumbled for it, nearly knocking over the lamp in my sleep-addled state."Hello?" I mumbled, squinting at the too-bright screen."BERNICE!" Cathy's voice exploded through the speaker, causing me to jerk the phone away from my ear. "I need you! It's an emergency! "I sat up, instantly alert. "Cathy? What's wrong? Is Lily okay?""Lily? Oh, she's fine. Sleeping like an angel, the little traitor," Cathy huffed. "No, it's much worse. I'm filing for divorce!"I blinked, trying to process this information. "Divorce?! Cathy, what are you talking about?""I'm leaving Taylor!" she wailed dramatically. "I can't take it anymore, Bernie. He's driving me insane! Do you know what he did?""What did he do?" I asked cautiously, already suspecting this was going to be something ridiculous."He left his socks on the floor. AGAIN!" Cathy's voice rose to a pitch that I'm sure only dogs could hear.
Married To My Ex Husband's Billionaire Brother Chapter 193 A Night to Remember
BerniceThe familiar New York skyline greeted us as our car wound its way through the city streets. After the rugged beauty of Scotland, the urban landscape felt both jarring and comforting. Hope was fast asleep in her car seat, her new stuffed highland cow clutched tightly to her chest."Home sweet home," Christian murmured, his hand finding mine in the space between us.As we pulled up to our building, I saw the doorman, George, step forward to help with our luggage. His familiar face broke into a warm smile as he saw us."Welcome back, Mr. and Mrs. Miller," he said, opening the car door. "How was your trip?""Wonderful, George, thank you," Christian replied, carefully lifting the still-sleeping Hope from her car seat. "But it's good to be home."I followed them into the building, my mind already racing with all the things we needed to do. Unpack, sort through mail, check in with work... The list seemed endless.As we entered our apartment, the silence enveloped us. After the bustle
Married To My Ex Husband's Billionaire Brother Chapter 192 A Journey to Edinburgh
BerniceThe early morning sun streamed through the windows of our Paris apartment, casting a golden glow over the scattered suitcases and travel documents strewn across the bed. I stood in front of the mirror, adjusting my blouse and taking a deep breath. Today was the day we'd been planning for weeks - our family trip to Scotland, to Christian's ancestral home."Mama! Mama!" Hope's excited voice preceded her as she toddled into the room, her little arms outstretched. I scooped her up, pressing a kiss to her chubby cheek."Are you ready for our big adventure, sweetheart?" I asked, smoothing down her unruly curls.Hope nodded enthusiastically. "See sheep!" she declared, her face lighting up with joy.I laughed, remembering the picture books of Scotland we'd been reading to her. "That's right, we're going to see lots of sheep. And castles, and lochs, and maybe even a highland cow or two."Christian appeared in the doorway, looking handsome in a casual sweater and jeans. The pendant I'd
Married To My Ex Husband's Billionaire Brother Chapter 191 Remembrance
BerniceThe soft glow of my desk lamp cast shadows across the scattered sketches and gemstones before me. It was well past midnight, but sleep eluded me. I was searching for a way to help Christian through his mourning.I picked up a rough sapphire, turning it over in my palm. Its deep blue reminded me of Edward's eyes, always twinkling with mischief and kindness. An idea began to form in my mind, a way to capture a piece of Edward's spirit in something tangible that Christian could carry with him.With renewed energy, I began to sketch. The design took shape under my pencil - a simple yet elegant pendant. A teardrop-shaped sapphire, surrounded by a delicate filigree of white gold, designed to look like the intertwining branches of a family tree. At the base of the pendant, almost hidden within the metalwork, I planned to engrave Edward's initials and the coordinates of his favorite spot in Paris - a bench in the Jardin des Tuileries where he used to take Christian as a boy.As the fi
Married To My Ex Husband's Billionaire Brother Chapter 190 A Final Farewell
BerniceIt was a moment of pure magic, tinged with the bittersweet knowledge that it might be one of Edward's last.The night stretched on, marked by Edward's labored breathing and occasional coughs. His skin had taken on a grayish pallor, and his cheeks seemed more sunken than ever. Every so often, his eyes would flutter open, unfocused and glassy, before closing again.Dr. Fournier entered the room for what felt like the hundredth time that night. He checked Edward's vitals with practiced efficiency, his brow furrowing as he noted the dropping blood pressure and weakening pulse. "We've increased his morphine dosage," he murmured to Christian. "He shouldn't be in any pain now."Edward's fingers twitched sporadically against the bedsheet, and his breathing became more irregular - sometimes rapid and shallow, then pausing for long, terrifying moments before resuming. The oxygen mask fogged rhythmically with each exhale, a visual reminder of his continuing fight.As dawn approached, Edw

BerniceChristian rushed in, followed closely by Dr. Fournier. For the next few minutes, the room was a flurry of activity as the doctor checked Edward's vitals and responses.Slowly, miraculously, Edward's eyes fluttered open. They were unfocused at first, but then they found Christian's face."Chris... Christian," he rasped, his voice barely audible around the breathing tube.Christian's face broke into a smile, tears streaming down his cheeks. "I'm here, Grandfather. I'm right here."Dr. Fournier quickly removed the breathing tube, replacing it with an oxygen mask. "Mr. Hamilton," he said, his voice gentle but firm. "Try not to speak too much. You've been through quite an ordeal."Edward nodded weakly, his eyes never leaving Christian's face. He lifted a shaky hand, which Christian immediately grasped."I'm sorry," Edward whispered. "I'm so sorry."Christian frowned, confused. "Sorry? Grandfather, you have nothing to be sorry for. You're going to be okay. You're going to get better
