My Cheating Boyfriend Dumped Me, I Stole His Dad's Heart CHAPTER 050: A Pack Of Wolves
All eyes are on us now.Bruno, who was mid-sentence about tequila shots, goes silent. Jessica, who was laughing at Bruno’s ridiculous story, freezes. Even my mother, who had been fawning over Bruno like he was some kind of Latin heartthrob, looks over in shock.“Well,” I say, giving Desiree’s hand a gentle squeeze, “I guess the cat’s out of the bag.”Mabel’s face is red with anger. Her eyes are wide, looking between me and Desiree as though we’ve committed the ultimate betrayal. Mike’s expression is a mix of confusion and hurt, his mouth opening and closing, trying to form words.“What's going on?” Mom asks.Of course, she’s the only one who doesn’t know. Everyone else is painfully aware that Desiree once dated Mike and is now married to his father. Yeah, when I think about it like that, it does sound… twisted.Bruno clears his throat, trying to calm the tension. “I think it's best if we all sit down.”For the first time tonight, I’m glad he’s spoken.With his arm around Mom's waist,
My Cheating Boyfriend Dumped Me, I Stole His Dad's Heart CHAPTER 051: Our Dirty Laundry
Desiree's POV Well, I can't say I didn't expect this. In fact, I planned for it. I rehearsed the words I’d use, the calm expression I’d wear, the dignified way I’d respond when they came for me. But the thing about planning? It’s useless. No matter how much you prepare, things always spiral out of control. Right now, I just want to go home. Which is funny because this is my home. Why should I let some lying, cheating, backstabbing son of a bitch and his girlfriend raise their voices at me, in my house? The nerve of them, sitting at my table, acting like they’re the victims here. I take a deep breath, feeling my heart pound in my chest. Everyone’s staring at me—Mike, Mabel, Jessica, Caspian's mom, my family—waiting to see what I’ll do next. But I refuse to lose my cool. Not over this. Not over them. “Sit down, Mike,” I say, my voice sharp. “You’re ruining our dinner.” He looks at me like I’ve lost my mind, like I’m the one who’s crossed the line. His jaw clenches, his h
My Cheating Boyfriend Dumped Me, I Stole His Dad's Heart CHAPTER 052: Cherry's Speech
Caspian's POVA few minutes later, the server returns with a bottle of tequila and several shot glasses, placing them in the middle of the table. "Yes!" Bruno cheers, grabbing the bottle with excitement. "Who's in?"Without waiting for a response, he starts pouring tequila into each shot glass, not caring if it spills a little. One by one, he puts a glass in front of everyone. Jessica looks excited, while Veronica just rolls her eyes. Mike, Mabel, and Mom sit there, not touching their drinks, clearly not in the mood.“Come on,” Bruno urges. “If we’re going to argue, we might as well have some fun with it. A little tequila never hurt, right? It’ll make things more interesting.”I pick up my shot glass and glance at Desiree. She hesitates but eventually picks up hers too.“To family,” I say, with a calm voice but a hint of sarcasm. “May we survive this dinner.”Bruno grins and raises his glass. “To survival!” He quickly downs the shot and slams the glass on the table.Jessica and Luke
My Cheating Boyfriend Dumped Me, I Stole His Dad's Heart CHAPTER 053: The Baton
Desiree's POV"Thank you all for listening," I say, as the clapping fades. "Uncle Bruno, you're up next."Caspian leans in, his breath warm against my ear. “That was hot. I never knew you were such an actress.”I smile, glancing sideways at him. “Oh, there are plenty of talents I haven’t unleashed on you yet.”He smiles. “I can’t wait.”As I turn my attention back to the table, I catch Helena’s eyes. For the first time since the drama started, she’s smiling. That distant look in her eyes is gone. It feels like a victory, however small. Maybe I’m finally winning her over. It’s like I’ve become one of those women who secretly want to impress their mother-in-law.Uncle Bruno clears his throat dramatically. “Well, I don’t have much to say, except that I’m still not over the fact you didn’t let me walk you down the aisle.” He gives me a playful glare. “But, since tequila is on the table, I suppose I’ll let it slide. For now.”Everyone laughs.“Here’s to more years of happiness, Dee Dee.” H
My Cheating Boyfriend Dumped Me, I Stole His Dad's Heart CHAPTER 054: Lean On Me
It’s been several minutes since Mike and Mabel stormed out of the dining room, and the place has been quiet since. No one dares to speak. Everyone’s focused on their plates, quietly chewing away, even Uncle Bruno, who never misses a chance to crack a joke.I keep stealing glances at Caspian, who looks far too pleased with himself. His smugness is annoying. I can’t take it anymore.“Please excuse me,” I mumble, pushing my chair back. “I’ll be back in a moment.”I have no idea where I’m going, but I need to get out of here. Fast. The guest toilet catches my eye, and before I know it, I’m inside, slamming the door behind me. The moment I reach the sink, my stomach rebels. I throw up everything I just ate, the taste of Chef Douglas's fancy meal now sour in my mouth.Damn it. I always puke when I'm extra anxious.Wiping my mouth, I pause. I hear something. Voices—faint, but definitely voices. Where’s it coming from?The window. I step up onto the toilet seat, lifting myself higher so I can
My Cheating Boyfriend Dumped Me, I Stole His Dad's Heart CHAPTER 055: Goodbye
We all stand there, eyes fixed on Mabel. The strangest part? She’s smiling—a warm, almost genuine smile. And after the way she acted earlier, it’s unexpected. Everyone’s curious about what she’s going to say.“First of all,” Mabel begins, “I’d like to apologize for acting… well, crazy.”Crazy? More like being a bitch, but fine, let’s call it whatever helps her sleep at night.“I shouldn’t have said what I did,” she continues, looking around the room. “I know now that I let my emotions take over, and for that, I’m sorry. This was meant to be a celebration, and I ruined it with my outburst. That was wrong.”She pauses for a moment, and it almost looks like she’s being genuine. But then her tone sharpens a little. “I was just trying to protect what’s mine. And that includes Mike. It’s hard watching someone you care about get hurt, especially by family. But I see now that holding onto grudges only makes things worse. I need to let go, and I’m ready to do that.”Oh, please. Whoever's liste
My Cheating Boyfriend Dumped Me, I Stole His Dad's Heart CHAPTER 056: The Hot Tub
Caspian's POVI don't know why I do it. But whenever I'm alone with Desiree, I tend to lose control.This is me now, kissing her under the rain. Her lips are soft and warm against mine even as the cold water pelts us from above.“We should go inside,” she whispers into my ear as we break from the kiss.I nod. “We should.”But instead of stepping back, I bend down and scoop her up into my arms, lifting her off the ground.She raises an eyebrow. “I don’t think you have any good intention, Caspian. The last time you carried me like this, I ended up in your bed.”“Where you belong,” I say with a grin, nudging the door open with my foot and carrying her over the threshold.I’m aware that we're leaving a wet trail on the floor. It doesn't matter anyway. There are more than enough staff available to clean that. They’ve probably had it easy while I was gone most of the time before Desiree and I got married. Now I’m home more often, and I’m sure they don’t mind a little extra work.Desiree wra
My Cheating Boyfriend Dumped Me, I Stole His Dad's Heart CHAPTER 057: Get Out
I’ve never felt more helpless, more completely under someone’s spell than I do right now. Every touch of Desiree’s fingers sends a shiver through me, making it impossible to think about anything but her. She’s so close that I can feel the warmth of her breath mixing with the heat in the room.“Caspian,” she says, “have you always been alone?”The question barely registers at first. How could it, when her hands are all over my chest, lightly brushing my skin and making me lose focus? She’s not just taking off my shirt; she’s setting me on fire with every touch. Her fingers move slowly, pushing my shirt off my shoulders in the most distracting way.It takes a moment for her words to sink in. “Alone?” I ask.She lets my shirt fall to the floor, not wasting time as she starts working on my belt. There’s something strange about this—the closeness, the rawness. “When I was stalking you,” she says, “I couldn’t find much about your love life. No girlfriends, no flings, no ex-wives. You were
