My Boss, My Husband Chapter 196
Lucius Brown's P.O.V.As much as the years had passed, the one thing that hadn't changed about Marianne was her ability to surprise me. Having her sitting next to me in the car was not part of my plan. Honestly, I thought she'd curse me out the next five times she saw me, but here we were, and I was driving her to my hotel."I'd take you somewhere nicer, but this is the safest place I can think of right now," I said, trying to sound indifferent."It's fine. I don't want to go back to my apartment," she replied, her voice dull and lifeless.Marianne had always been a peculiar woman, but her silence had a purpose. She had been lost in thought the entire drive, and now, we were almost at the hotel. I was taking her to a hotel, and she hadn't protested or made a sarcastic comment. Something must have gone down with Matt.I didn't press her for details. Not yet. I simply drove us to the hotel where I was staying. "Staying" being a loose term since I had changed hotels three times ever

Lucius Brown's P.O.V."Maybe it was the feeling that she was growing up that hurt you," I said, pouring her another drink—less than the last time."A part of me always knew," she smiled sadly. "It's not like Amanda ever really abandoned her. I've never seen her so motivated by anyone. It feels like it's taken forever, yet it's also happened too fast."I had known this day would come ever since Amanda had given birth. She was too young and naive to be a mother, raised in a world of illusions and appearances, thanks to Amelia's influence. Amanda could've thrived if she had found a businessman who wanted a pretty trophy wife, but instead, she had chosen her sister's boyfriend, who had ended up in prison.With Serge's death, Amelia's disappearance, and her husband's imprisonment, Amanda had been left with nothing. Just as I had predicted, Marianne had stepped in to rescue that little girl. She drained the rest of her drink. Whatever happened in that building must have been intense to p

Lucius Brown's P.O.V.I hated Matt with a burning, inexplicable loathing. I hated the thought of the time he had spent with Marianne, the kisses they had shared, and the fact that she had let him into her body. But above all, I hated the mere possibility that he could be her husband or the father of her children.That would never happen. And if it did, it would be over my cold, dead body. Marianne didn't understand that yet. She looked at me like I was crazy, then burst out laughing—so hard that her head tipped back, her laughter echoing through every corner of the hotel room."You can't tell me who to be with or not be with. Or what? Do you want me to become a nun? Would that make your ego feel better?" she mocked."No, but I'd prefer it if you found someone outside the tangled mess of business conspiracies you were dragged into. Someone safer, boring even, who could give you stability," I said, my fists itching at the thought of the kind of man I was describing for her.She laug

Alcohol was a kind of escape, a way to let out your feelings, and those deeply repressed desires would rise to the surface when you were drunk. So, whatever happened last night, I had probably brought it upon myself.As soon as I woke up, I noticed a couple of things. One, I wasn't in my apartment. And two, the headache pounding in my skull was going to kill me. Unfortunately, when I glanced down, I saw that I was naked beneath a white hotel sheet.Sitting up in the bed took all my strength, and I clutched my head, which throbbed with pain. Hugging my legs to my chest, I tried to steady myself against the dizziness that still hadn't faded. My bleary eyes wandered around the room—it looked like a hotel—and from the clothes scattered on the floor, it seemed like a disaster had struck here last night.I spotted my wrinkled uniform in one corner and a pair of black pants and a shirt, both the same color as the ones Lucius had worn last night.Lucius.My eyes widened as I became aware

"What… what did you want to talk about?" I asked, my voice shaky."How bad was the fight with Matt for you to use sleeping with me as revenge?" he asked, his tone tinged with sadness and self-loathing.For the first time since waking up, I thought about Matt. About how his "time apart" would likely end in a permanent breakup. I didn't know where things would go with Lucius, but I had slept with him. And Matt, well... he was probably doing the same with his "cousin". There was nothing left to save between us, especially after I'd rejected his marriage proposal."How can you be so right and so wrong at the same time?" I said, irritated, as I stabbed at the fruit salad in front of me.Lucius looked surprised by my response."What do you mean?""Our relationship was already falling apart, and what happened between us was just the final nail in the coffin," I explained."Did you find out what he was involved in?" he asked, sounding almost excited.I rolled my eyes. This couldn't be

Life had moved on despite the losses. Over a week had passed since my "accidental" encounter with Lucius, and I had been fighting to regain my own sense of stability.Amanda had honored her promise to not bring Alice back until her lease agreement was finalized, the insurance company had confirmed that my car was a total loss, and Jenna kept sending me a thousand pictures from her honeymoon. Things were more or less in order.That was what I tried to focus on as I untangled Alice's wet hair. She was engrossed in the TV, completely at ease. It was a peaceful Saturday night—at least it was until I glanced out the window. That familiar feeling crept back as I spotted Lucius's car parked on the street below.I didn't like this. By "this", I meant the creeping sense that I was doing something wrong, pretending not to know that Lucius was watching me closely. Ever since his warnings, I had been more aware of my surroundings—of where I was and who was nearby, including him. Sometimes, I'd

"Yeah, it's great, I admit. But… you really don't have Lionel's approval? Did you sneak out or something?" I had to ask. "He's your dad, so of course he worries about you. That's normal.""I know… but sometimes, it's just so overwhelming. My mom had to convince him, and I had to remind him not to do to me what my grandpa did to him. That's how we got to the ultimatum.""It's good you guys came to an agreement. When's your flight?" I realized I hadn't offered her anything. "Have you had dinner? Want something to drink?""It's leaving at dawn, and…" Sara's smile suddenly disappeared, her eyes fixed in horror on my couch.I followed her gaze and saw Alice peeking out from behind the couch, trying to hide. She glanced at us shyly, probably thinking we hadn't noticed her. I chuckled."Alice, you don't need to hide. Come say hi to my friend, Sara," I beckoned her over.My niece stepped out from her hiding spot, her head hanging low as she walked toward us. I rested my hand on her shoul

A gesture of kindness and gratitude—that was all I would give Lucius. It was all I could give the man who was now ringing the doorbell outside my apartment. I checked to make sure the table was set for him, doing my best to appear as casual as possible in my house clothes. Then, I went to open the door."I see you've learned how to use the doorbell," I greeted him."For tonight, yes. Though I'm not giving back the spare key I keep for emergencies.""I'll change the locks one of these days. Come in," I rolled my eyes.Lucius stepped inside, heading straight for the table where the only empty plate waited. Not wasting a second, I began to serve him the leftover dinner—simple enough, just rice, chicken cutlets, and salad. As I filled his plate, I felt his gaze on me, almost as though he was studying me, analyzing me.It was tormenting to be so close to him while trying to maintain a facade of kindness and gratitude. I didn't like how close we were. His scent was intoxicating, his pre

Sara Brown's P.O.V."Didn't we agree you wouldn't come, Mom?" Richard asked, his voice low and disappointed."Richard, you too?" Victoria exclaimed, her voice trembling with a mix of hurt and indignation."What else did you expect, Victoria?" Julian interjected, crossing his arms. "We practically had to beg Sara for permission just to see Matthew. Meanwhile, you've done nothing to make amends yet here you are, demanding things. That's not how this works.""Do you want me to apologize to Sara?" Victoria's voice cracked as she looked at me, her emotions on full display.I would never trust Victoria, and I certainly would never leave my son alone with her unsupervised. But in this moment, her vulnerability chipped away at some of my hardened resolve. Life had been so good lately, so full of joy and love, that my heart no longer had room for resentment."You don't need to apologize to me," I said calmly. "The people you owe an apology to are your sons."Victoria's eyes widened, her

Sara Brown's P.O.V.Six months later.Becoming a mother was one of those adventures I never knew I needed, but I'd never been more grateful for taking the leap—especially with Lawrence by my side. Now, here we were, standing in front of a flower-draped altar nestled in the woods of the Brown family estate.Getting married in this spot felt symbolic. It had been our sanctuary as kids, the place where we'd escaped from the grown-ups and shared secrets. It was fitting that my best friend, the boy who'd been by my side through thick and thin, was now becoming my husband.Behind us was a small gathering of family and close friends. The Browns—ever-expanding with a small army of kids—were all present, as were a handful of Lawrence's relatives, including his brothers, Richard and Julian. We'd kept the guest list to just sixty people, making this a more intimate celebration than anyone would've expected from a Brown-Lewis wedding.Still, it was perfect. Everyone we loved was here. And the

I looked at our baby's tiny face, and the urge to cry overwhelmed me again. He was absolutely perfect."Are you going to keep crying?" Sara teased with a mischievous grin. "If you don't stop, I won't give you another one."I wiped my tears immediately, not wanting to take any chances. She burst out laughing, her radiant energy filling the room."So," quickly shifting topics, she leaned forward slightly, "what are we naming him? We agreed we'd know when we saw him. I've got a name from the shortlist in mind. Do you?""I do," I replied, smiling."Okay, let's say it together," she suggested, and I nodded. "On three. One, two, three—""Matthew!" we both exclaimed in unison.We stared at each other before breaking into matching grins. Sara started clapping in excitement over our perfect sync. I laughed at her enthusiasm, but something on the hospital TV caught my attention—a news report about yesterday's gubernatorial election. Images of Isabelle, the winner, flashed across the scree

Lawrence Lewis's P.O.V.Three months later...Just when I thought I couldn't be any happier with Sara loving me, life proved me wrong. Every day felt like a new peak of joy. A few months ago, I believed I had reached the ultimate high when she accepted my proposal during our trip to Finland. I'd asked her under the northern lights in a private and intimate moment, just the two of us—just like our entire relationship had been.The fallout from canceling my engagement to Emma had been relatively manageable for me. There were no financial or legal repercussions, and I narrowly escaped the disgrace of almost becoming the son-in-law of a criminal like Mark. But to say I avoided all drama would be a lie. The rumors and gossip surrounding how Sara and I had gotten together were relentless.I was usually a calm man, but any criticism aimed at Sara, accusing her of "breaking up" my previous engagement, turned me into a beast. Sara would always tell me to ignore the noise, that only we knew

I stood there frozen, feeling every gaze lock onto me. It was as if time had stopped. No one spoke, no one moved—they just stared. Sweat started trickling down places I didn’t even know could sweat.“Hi… how’s everyone doing?” I asked, my voice hesitant.I braced myself for the shouting, the dramatic exclamations, the scolding even. Instead, the extroverted ones in the room simply smiled at me while the quieter ones went back to what they were doing, almost as if nothing had happened. The initial wave of attention just… evaporated.“As I was saying,” Uncle Lucius continued, picking up right where he’d left off, “if you don’t finish your vegetables, we’ll give them to the lion in the forest.”My jaw dropped. This table—the entire Brown family—was completely unfazed. Even Lawrence had that knowing smile on his face, almost as if he’d expected this exact reaction. Before I could recover, Aunt Lucia and Aunt Marianne came over and pulled me into tight hugs.“You look gorgeous, Sara. A

Richard's voice broke the silence as he gathered his courage. "We'd like to add Duke and Monarch for me, and the boat for Julian. With that, we'll be ready to sign the agreement."I rubbed my ears, almost certain I had misheard."The horses and the boat? That's all you want?" Lawrence asked, his tone tinged with disbelief."Yes," Julian confirmed, his voice hesitant. "We believe... they're of great sentimental value to us. And they were gifts. They just... weren't officially transferred to us."Lawrence's eyes darted between them as if trying to confirm whether these were the same brothers he'd been fighting with."That's it?" he repeated, his suspicion evident."That's it," Richard said, though his discomfort was plain to see."What are you two plotting?" Lawrence asked, narrowing his eyes.The twins exchanged confused glances."Nothing?" Julian said, his tone growing defensive. "What are you plotting? You told us you wouldn't give us anything but then sent this offer out of

I couldn't help but notice the sadness etched onto Lawrence's face. He'd always said he wouldn't give his brothers anything. Yet here he was, not only offering them a portion of the inheritance but also bracing himself for their inevitable demands and negotiating with them."Wouldn't it have been easier to just offer them exactly what you were willing to give from the start?" I asked as I leaned against his shoulder, wrapping my arms around him. His sadness was palpable, and it was breaking my heart. Just moments ago, he'd been so happy. "Just say 'Take it or leave it' and then forget about them."Lawrence sighed, his gaze distant. "I know them. And I know myself. I can't lay the blame for all my hardships on them like I do with Victoria. Despite what I said during the will reading, I know they deserve more than what my father left them.""You have a heart of gold, Ren," I murmured, kissing his cheek. "Don't let those brats melt it down, okay?"He chuckled softly, though his sadnes

I swayed my hips rhythmically against his body, the two of us joined in that intimate connection we'd rediscovered nearly every night since the chaos with a certain corrupt official had come to an end.As Lawrence neared his release, he called my name, his voice rough with passion. I teased him by sucking on the thumb he'd slipped into my mouth, which was all it took for him to shut his eyes tightly as the force of his climax overtook him. I followed him into that blissful release just a moment later.Utterly satisfied, I collapsed beside him on the bed, both of us completely naked, basking in the warmth of each other's bodies. My breathing was still ragged as Lawrence shifted closer, his hands roaming gently over my hair, my chest, and finally, my stomach. The way his hand lingered there told me exactly what he was about to ask—again."Are you sure you're comfortable with this?" he asked."No. It was terrible. I never want to have another orgasm for the rest of my life," I replied

"What's going on here?" I asked Sara suspiciously."Just go with the flow," she replied, opening my car door with a grin.I hesitated but decided to follow her advice—or at least try. After exchanging cheek kisses, I walked over to where Jason was waiting. I tucked the envelope with my test results into my pocket. As I reached him, he took my hand, and we started walking up a hill in the park."When did you ask Sara to bring me here?" I asked, curious."That's a secret," he said with a chuckle. "And since you two are such close friends now—""Close friends?" I interrupted, raising a brow. "You think we're really friends?""That's how it seems. You smile a lot when you're with her," he replied."Do I?" I considered it for a moment, warmth spreading through my chest. "Maybe we are."Jason smiled but kept silent. As we climbed one of the hills, I was taken aback by the breathtaking view of the city spread before us. But even more surprising was the blanket laid out on the ground,
