Marrying My Ex-husband's Stepbrother 18
1 amThe time was passing quite quickly, the clock making a ticking sound once in a while. Apollo stretched out his arms and turned the lid of the laptop down.'There's no water in the room. I have to go to the kitchen.' Suddenly he stopped on his track as his eyes got a glimpse of the figure that was lying on the sofa in a weird position. There was no one around, he glared at the wall clock and then back at the figure.'Who's it?' Apollo nonchalantly walked to the sofa just to be surprised. He let out an annoying sigh and then rubbed his forehead. 'What sleeping posture is this?'Avery had her legs flying on the top of the sofa when her head was resting against the pillow on the table. Some sorts of papers with pens and some materials were messily on the table and the floor."Get up!" He uttered.Avery deep in sleep answered him with no words but silence. He bobbed his head in annoyance and moved all the materials to one side of the table. How much he hated messy people and here, h

The glass elevator was going down, and all the lights on the floors one by one turned off. As Apollo walked out of the elevator the lights on the floor turned on."It's 7:25 pm."Taking a gaze at his wristwatch he walked in the direction that lead to the office kitchen.The lights were constantly going on and off. Avery looked around, checking for the first-aid kit. 'I don't know why the lights are going on and off...' Though she washed her finger that got a cut a while ago, it was still bleeding and hurting.Upon seeing the first-aid kit, she stood high on her toes to get it. Crack!Suddenly everywhere darkness took place as the lights were gone. Avery could barely see things around."Shit! Why the lights went off at this time?" Putting the first-aid kit down, she started wandering around for the candle. Since she was new here, she didn't know exactly where things were kept.Avery wanted to try a new dish, she was cutting the vegetables that's when she cut her finger. Since she wa

"Mr Wyatt, we have found out the will of Miss Knight's grandmother. But there's some problem. We know where is it kept but it's hard to get it."A voice from the other side of the call reported so. Apollo walking downstairs, let out, "Find it first. None should get their hands on it before us.""Yes, sir."It was past midnight. Apollo used to work in a different timezone in foreign so he was used to that timing.Letting out a sigh of relief Apollo kneaded the middle of his forehead. He walked towards the settee to take a seat but the moment he reached the settee he was taken back.He gaped at Avery with pure annoyance in his eyes.'She is doing it again.'Avery made dinner, and they had it peacefully so he thought he would let her go one time but her repeated behaviour was irritating him now.Just like the other night, things were scattered here and there. The difference tonight was... There was a packet of snacks on the table too. 'She is not going to change, I need to make it clear

"This way, please!" Avery followed the manager. After work, the driver took her here. Since she was going to the event with Apollo. Though Noah didn't tell her what the event was about or where exactly they were going. "These are newly out clothes. We hope you will like them, Mrs Wyatt." The manager smiled at her and gestured for her to take a look around. 'The dresses are so beautiful, I can't decide which one to take... And they are super expensive...' After looking around she stood in one place in a dilemma. The price tag on the dresses she saw was making her think twice before she could touch a certain one among the rest. "Don't you like them? Mrs Wyatt." The manager asked her. Avery smiled cheekily and bit her lips. She took a look around and mumbled under her breath, 'Noah said I have an hour. And I must choose a dress from here. It's not like I don't like them... Fine, I will choose the less expensive one then.' She walked around again. When she was checking on the price

"Daddy, sister didn't come back home. I have been sick worried for her these past few days, look at her. She is wearing such a dress, I'm afraid she might have..." Jennifer groaned while looking at Paul with watery eyes.Since the day, Avery came to live with them Jennifer hated her. For some reason, the very sight of her always made Jennifer feel irritated.Everyone glared at her as if she did some dirty. Paul grabbed Avery's hand and asked, "You have been missing after your divorce. What the hell did you do after that?"Georgia smirked at her daughter and voiced in a pretentious tone, "She is still young. I am afraid she found a sugar daddy for herself..."Avery felt nothing but disgusted, she remained silent and tried to get away from Paul's grip. "Let go!""Is what your mother saying true? Did you really...""I said let go!""She is silent which means she has...""What imprudent thing you have done! Why do I have a shameless girl like you!" Paul furrowed his eyebrows in rage.Ave

Holding her in his arms, Apollo kicked the door shut by his leg. He gently put her down the bed, taking off her shoes without making a sound Apollo sat next to her. He caressed her face and kept staring at her face.It was indeed him who arranged for her to meet the Knight family, he was as serious as always until he saw her sad. Apollo also was surprised at his own behaviour, he never thought of telling the whole world that Avery was his girlfriend.'I don't know why did I do that but I will protect you like I promised.'Pulling the bedcover over her he let out a sigh.As he stood up to leave, Avery grabbed his hand. Apollo, halted turned towards her and saw her lying on the bed but holding his hand. For a moment, he was nervous. Apollo looked away from her and remained silent.'She just woke up right?'"Uhmm, I have a question. It's not like a question though I mean I just... I just can't figure out the reason." She asserted sounding confused. Back at the party, she the least expec

'Some years backA day in school was supposed to be the best day of my life, but it turned into the worst one for me. I can never forget it, no matter how hard I try, I just can't...'Click!"Uhmm, is something wrong with the food?" Suddenly her voice pulled him into reality. She has been the one talking when he was in a daze. Apollo looked at Avery with anguish in his eyes.Did she see it wrong? A part of her heart wanted to ask him when the other one didn't.* ECHOING WORDS *"I'M LEAVING BUT HERE'S A REMINDER FOR YOU. YOU KNOW HOW YOU ARE! JUST LIKE DAD ONCE LEFT YOU AND YOUR MOTHER, AVERY WILL ALSO LEAVE YOU. YOU BRING NOTHING BUT BAD LUCK AND MISERY! TAKE YOUR MOM FOR INSTANCE, HAVING A SON LIKE YOU IS A NIGHTMARE FOR HER.""Mr Wyatt?" Avery hit on the table gently, he seemed so lost today.Instead of answering her, grabbing his suit he just walked out of his office and she followed after him."Mr Wyatt, wait. Mr... Did I do something wrong? He just left like that..." Standing a

Whack!'I have to stop him no matter what!'Avery grabbed onto her dress and held her breath as she shut her eyes close in fear. Her heart beating at an unusual rate."I told you to stay away. What were you thinking that you stood right in front of me? I could have punched you just now!" Outraged, Apollo grasped her arms and stared at her, infuriated. Upon hearing his voice, Avery opened her eyes and smiled at him cheekily.'Thankfully I am safe.'"I wanted you to stop."Apollo stared at her coldly. If he was not careful, she would have had a new look on her face."I could have hit your face.""You wouldn't."As he heard her, he looked stiffer. He stepped an inch towards her, keeping his gaze fixed on her as if he was warning her through those blue orbs of his. TO NOT PUSH HER LUCK!He in his raspy voice asked, "Are you sure?"Avery bit her lips. Her eyes shut off and open again.'It is the only way to stop him.' Taking a step she asserted confidently, "Yes, I am..."All her bravery

Tears ran down her cheeks, and she wiped off her tears with the back of her palm. Avery sobbed and looked at her palm which got muddy earlier. Checking no one was following her she settled on the bench."They bullied me again, my hand is hurting. But what can I do? It was all because of that Apollo.

∆ An hour later ∆"I will leave him begging on the street, your husband will die a painful death and so will your kids. Avery, I will kill your whole family." Those words kept beating in her eardrum like a bell. Her forehead sweated like a horse and her hand clenched into a fist."Prez, Mike." Suddenly opening her eyes as she found herself lying on the bed, with everyone waiting outside for her Avery quickly hurried out of her room. She saw Apollo talking to the officers."Where are my kids?""We are looking for them, we will soon..." The officers were interrupted as she voiced bitterly, "My kids have gone missing, how long are you guys gonna keep giving excuses?"The officers went silent. Avery wiped off her tears and felt short of breathing. She looked at Apollo and requested, "Please bring my kids back. Please... Jennifer is a psycho, she might hurt Prez and Mike. They are just kids, they should not... I don't know how are they doing now. I..."Everyone seemed worried, even after h

∆ One month later ∆"Good afternoon, Mrs Wyatt." As she proceeded out of the elevator elegantly in a black suit and pants, everyone greeted her respectfully. Walking into her cabin, she placed her purse in the drawer and then a hand encircled her waist. Avery smiled and turning around she hugged him.Apollo kissed her and asserted, "Welcome back.""Thank you, baby." Holding her hand he had her sit on the couch then he made her a coffee mocha."Here is your coffee, madam." Placing the cup on the table he asserted so a little playfully.Taking a sip of the coffee, she looked at the outside world from the window. Even a month ago, she was wondering what would her future be like. Avery felt blissed, just like she wished everything was going smoothly."It's been a month since Jennifer has been hospitalized. She is getting well, today I went to see her." Heavily sighing, she proclaimed so in a calm tone of voice. Her hatred for Jennifer was on top, every time she saw her suffering in the h

"Lieutenant, we have found her location."Police have been looking for her location for some time now, Noah and Daniel managed to stop Apollo from going to rescue Avery by himself.Apollo looked around. His eyes were fixated on the tab that was in the police officer's hand. "Let me see too." "Ava." As soon as the officer handed him the tab, Apollo ran to his car."Mr Wyatt, stop!"Quickly hoping in the car, he didn't even look back. "I will send the location to you guys. But I can't wait here anymore." "Shit! It's dangerous. We should have guessed the boss would do this, follow him. Faster! Dan." Getting in the car, Noah followed his car along with the police officers.∆ Liam's apartment ∆Tapping on the keyboard constantly Liam glanced at the clock again.

With a smile plastered on his face, Apollo extended his hand, searching for her who was supposed to lie next to him on the bed. "Babe" As he opened his eyes, he was surprised. The side of the bed was empty, with his slightly dizzy head he sat on the bed, putting a pillow behind him.At first, he thought that she was in the bathroom but after calling her names and waiting for fifteen minutes as she still didn't show up, Apollo felt something was surely wrong."As far as I remember we were together before I fell asleep, she is supposed to be here... Avery." He then remembered what he planned of doing.Putting on a shirt he quickly headed out of his room, calling someone but as he came out, and saw Noah along with the four, he cut the call.Apollo felt more uneasy, he could understand something was surely not right since her friends were here as well.In a worried tone of voice, he questioned, "Where is she?"Everyone remained silent, they didn't know what to answer. After Isla talked t

"I wonder what's so urgent, why did Drea call me so early in the morning, telling me to come here."Getting out of the car, Isla hurried towards the hallway when suddenly she collided with someone. Looking up as she saw Noah, she was astonished, "Wait, what are you doing here?" She questioned him."Same, what are you doing here?" Instead of answering her, he questioned her."Drea said there was something urgent so I came to see her. How about you?"Hearing her Noah raised his brows, "She told me the same thing.""Damn it! It's worrying me, it must be something important that she..." Isla was thinking of the reasons when Noah suddenly held her hand. "What?"He took a peek around and dragged her close to his car."Noah, what is it?""You told me that you had something important in the hospital, it was because of this issue, right?"Smiling cheekily at him she rubbed the back of her head, while lying to him about why she couldn't go on a date with him she didn't think things would turn o

"Sorry, I can't let you get hurt. If anyone should get hurt then it's me, you must be safe and protect our kids. I love you, my husband." Placing a kiss on his forehead she smiled at sleepy Apollo for one last time.Getting in the car, she quickly checked the blue file that she took here with her. Her eyes glowed as she looked at the signature.∆ The Next Day ∆Avery was in the kitchen, making dishes when suddenly she felt her head spinning, she hissed and rubbed her head. Suddenly a hand reached around her waist and in a swift, she was taken in his arms.Widening her eyes, she smiled and hit his shoulder gently, "What are you doing? Put me down, I still have a dish to make ""We have chefs for that purpose." He added and only when they were in the bedroom, did he put her down on the bed.Avery looked around and tried getting up, but he pulled her back, sleeping next to her he wrapped his hand around her midsection.Avery could feel he was up to something. She raised her brows and lo

∆ The Next Day ∆Noah flat-out ran to the room, seeing him so panicked everyone looked at him.Avery gazed at him worriedly and asked, "What happened? Why do you look so worried?""You guys didn't see the news yet?"Both Avery and Apollo nodded their heads in denial and Noah quickly turned on the tv.The words on the news said indeed shocked them. "Wendy Lincoln is dead?"Noah reported with a nod, "Yes, she jumped from her house's building and died on the spot.""When did it happen?""At 3 am. She even left some suicidal notes that she was suffering from depression." Noah added.Avery had some words with Liam last night, he told her that he had something to tell her and he would tell her about it in the morning when they would meet again. But until now, she waited for his call but got none."Did the police find any trace?""No, there was nothing.""So it means the case will be closed soon."Avery looked sad. She remembered how Wendy behaved with her so trashy but still, she didn't wi
