My Boss, My Husband Chapter 47
Without the context of what we’d just heard, I was sure this office would look like a game of freeze tag. No one moved or breathed, including Amy and myself. But not Lucius, of course.“Are you being paid to be nosy?” he asked, clearly in a foul mood.No one answered him. Amy just shrugged and stared at the floor. The place was as still as a desert.“Get moving!” he barked.At that, everyone jumped, including me. Tom and Savannah rushed back to their desks, Amy ran off somewhere far from to put distance between herself and our boss, and the noise returned to the floor. I could hear the beginnings of phone calls and the frantic clicking of keyboards in the distance. I wanted to flee my spot too, but Lucius’s focus was entirely on me.“Come to my office,” he demanded before turning and walking away.I had no choice but to follow him to his office. Lucius’s behavior left me bewildered. That feeling didn’t leave as I entered his office and saw him leaning against his desk, arms cross

My heart sank. It was painfully obvious that to Lucius, I was just a challenge, and that he wanted to get me back in his bed. To me, though, sadly, he was more than that. But still, I wouldn’t let him win.“And why should I care?” I shrugged, feigning indifference.“Excuse me?” he snapped, offended.“Why should I care who you have fun with out there? Do you have a leash around your neck, and am I supposed to have you trained? This isn’t real. You’re free to sleep with whoever you want. Or are you saying that if I asked you to keep it exclusive, you’d actually respect that?”My audacity seemed to throw him off more than I expected. I saw a flicker of confusion in Lucius’s eyes, sparking a thousand thoughts in my naive heart. If we came to an agreement to be lovers, but exclusive lovers, maybe… just maybe… something more could come from it, right? Like feelings, and maybe even more. Something real.“If your intention is for us to be exclusive, you could just say so, and I’d know whe

Out of all the mysteries Lucius presented to me, the one involving his relationship with Amelia gnawed at my insides the most. How could it not, with those two looking at each other with such blatant loathing? What was with the strange reactions my stepmother had around him? And what was with that undisguised hatred my fake fiancé showed towards her?“Amelia, that’s a bit out of line. Lucius and I are getting married. He’ll be part of *our* family,” I interjected.“Marianne, what are you doing here? I didn’t know you were here…” Amelia stammered, smoothing her dress, clearly uncomfortable.“She works here. What are you talking about? The one who shouldn’t be in this office is you. Who let you in?” Lucius retorted sharply.This was a side of Lucius I’d come to recognize. He could be incredibly charming, but also incredibly unpleasant when he wanted to be. Right now, he was being the latter. Then again, he always was when dealing with Amelia.“This used to be my husband’s office. Yo

“I told you how Amelia acts weird around Lucius and vice versa. They’re talking in his office right now, so I left my phone behind with the voice recorder on” I said, feeling proud.Jenna didn’t share my enthusiasm about my brilliant plan. Quite the opposite.“They’re still acting strange? Do you think they had an affair?”I almost spat out my coffee. I looked at Jenna, disgust written all over my face. Lucius and Amelia? Together?“What kind of affair?” I asked, pretending I didn’t understand what she meant.“Well… your stepmother is very attractive and has kept herself in great shape for her age. And Lucius is a womanizer, as far as we know. Maybe they reconnected by chance, and that’s where the tension comes from. What else could it be?”“No… that can’t be true.”“Why not? Do you trust either of them to be ethical?”The truth was, I didn’t. It wouldn’t be a shock if Amelia, being the witch that she was, had cheated on my father. I didn’t see her as decent enough not to have

“I’m holding you responsible for something you know you’re responsible for. You’re a smart girl. What are you doing bruising the ego of a weak man like Andrew? Focus your efforts on solidifying your marriage to Lucius,” he advised.I didn’t know what hurt more—my father talking about my love life like it was just another business deal, or him only giving me this much attention because of Lucius. Before Lucius, it was because of Andrew. It was always about some man, never about me, his daughter.“That’s exactly what I’m doing. So maybe you should ask your other daughter to focus her efforts on keeping her fiancé in check. Andrew’s not my problem anymore,” I argued.My father sneered cruelly.“Aren’t you grateful for that? You should be. Andrew’s a spent resource. His betrayal led you to someone better. Play your cards right.”“What are you talking about, Dad?” I asked, confused. “Isn’t Andrew your prized shareholder? Your beloved protégé? Where’s this coming from?”“He stopped bei

Time seemed to fly when you had a million things to do. That was precisely how it felt, being the unwilling maid of honor for my ex and my sister’s wedding. The biggest challenge I faced now was finding a church for their ceremony. Amanda, of course, was impossible to please. Even with less than a month until the wedding, she still couldn’t make up her mind.It wasn’t just me saying that—we were currently walking down the aisle of my last option, the cathedral in the neighboring city. Amelia and Amanda were walking ahead of me, and I could hear their ridiculous complaints.“Doesn’t it look a bit old, Mom? I want something more modern,” my half-sister complained, arm linked with my stepmother’s.“You can’t ask a cathedral to be more modern. But yes, we will need to do a lot of work to bring it up to our standards. How’s the choir here, Marianne?” Amelia turned to ask me.“It’s available on the wedding date. They’re well respected in the city,” I replied.“Isn’t it too small, though

This was my moment. It had finally arrived.“Andrew’s habits haven’t changed? Don’t tell me that,” I said, feigning the deepest sympathy.“What do you mean, his habits?” she asked, sounding alarmed.“Well… his addiction to… other women,” I said, feigning hurt. “I remember… finding various items like the one you mentioned in his game room too. Where exactly is this nursing room in the apartment?”That question was the final blow for Amanda. She didn’t know that I knew what she had done. I was several steps ahead of her. But Amanda wouldn’t give up so easily, even if she thought the man she was about to marry was cheating on her. By the way, before Amanda, I never suspected Andrew had cheated on me. I was making everything up.“Oh, the item I mentioned? It has nothing to do with what you’re implying. Now that I think about it, it must have been a misunderstanding. Andrew is the most attentive, respectful, and considerate man with me,” she defended herself.“I can imagine, especiall

It had to be the wine making me feel anxious to know where Lucius was. I grabbed my phone, lay down on my new sofa, and set my glass on the floor. I kicked off my sandals and called him. This was the first time I’d dared to call him—if it were up to him, it would never happen.The phone rang and rang, but he didn’t answer…Until he did. The sound of the call being picked up sent me into the clouds. Maybe it was just the alcohol. I tried to speak first, but no words came out. I didn’t know what to say.“Who is this?”I crashed back down to the hard ground. That wasn’t Lucius’s voice. It was a woman’s voice.“This is Marianne. I want to talk to Lucius. Is he there?” I said, trying to sound firm.“And who’s Marianne?” the woman questioned again.“His... fiancée.”My shaky response was met with laughter. The mocking laughter of this unknown woman who had answered his phone.“Sure, of course,” she said and hung up.My shock faded quickly. I reached out to find my glass and drained

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
My Boss, My Husband Chapter 405
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,
