Jason got up and followed after me. His huge, towering shadow kept appearing at my feet.When we reached a corner, he suddenly pushed me against it. I dropped the pills and water glass in my hands, causing them to smash onto the ground."Hazel, let's strike a deal. I'll kick Brianna out of the door as soon as she's given birth. You can then take her place. What do you think?"I raised an eyebrow. "I am your father's wife. Your line of thinking is very unethical."Jason bent forward and cast his warm breath against my face. "Ah, but I love doing unethical things like this."He was still panting rather heavily as he then buried his face into the crook of my neck. He then started licking my skin from my collarbones to the back of my ear."Aren't you just after his money? I can give you everything he can. Am I not any better than that paralyzed old man after all? He can't satisfy you like I can."I pushed him away with great force."Stop thinking with your dick. Get straight to the
I wiped at the corners of my reddened eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "You killed your father and framed me for the murder, all for money! You're a beast!"Jason struggled. "I'm innocent! I did nothing wrong!"I watched as he was taken away in the police car. As the car disappeared into the horizon, I could barely keep the smile away from my face anymore.It didn't matter that Jason insisted that he was innocent. The police would only look at evidence, and everything had been caught on camera.Jason had slithered into Saul's bedroom at dawn that day and switched out the pills that Saul regularly took every day. He was going to use me to kill his own father.Also, to make sure that his plan didn't go awry, he even went ahead and swapped out the oxygen tank by Saul's bed for a hydrogen tank for good measure.With that, Saul would undoubtedly be as dead as a doornail by the time he came back. And since Saul was killed when Jason was not around, Jason was able to create an alibi for
Usually, Calvin and I would often call each other at night while we went about with our lives. This kind of silent accompaniment gave me a sense of security, even if we didn't say anything to each other.However, from that day onward, it had become my biggest nightmare.Calvin's breathing was getting louder and heavier by the second. I started getting concerned and asked him if he was getting down with a cold.Before I could get my answer, however, I heard him shouting in a hoarse voice."How did you get in here? What did you do to my drink?"I immediately sensed something amiss. "Calvin? What's wrong?"There was the sound of breaking glass, followed by Calvin's loud gasping."Go away! Leave me alone!"Just as I was feeling extremely confused, I suddenly heard Brianna's voice from his side of the line. "Come on, look at me, Cal. Open your eyes and look at me. I refuse to believe that you feel nothing for me!"I instantly felt as if I'd just been struck by lightning. Brianna, t
Jason's gaze trembled. "It was you?""Yep. I saved him."It had been a perfectly timed "accident". I saved Saul's life, so, naturally, he would trust me with all of his heart. I just had to continue hinting to him about Jason for him to start suspecting his own son. And of course, that would trigger Jason's defensive mode and try to kill Saul.I sat there and watched, enjoying every minute of Jason losing his head while cursing at me and calling me every name under the sky. After I was done, I simply smirked and turned to leave.I could still kind of hear him cussing me out when the wind blew in my direction. He seemed to be repeating the same words over and over—something about causing unrest, planned murder, exacting revenge… …Since Saul was dead and Jason was imprisoned, that meant their riches and properties now all belonged to me.Oh, and that also included my son, of course. How could I forget him?I should have a son, after all. That way, it would just make more sense
"You should be happy that I'm willing to take care of the baby," I told Brianna. "Otherwise, with his dad in prison and his mom mentally ill, I wonder how the poor boy is even going to grow up. He'd have already lost at the starting line if not for me!""What? What prison? What mental illness?"I pretended to look shocked."Oh, haven't you heard? Jason killed his father, so he's spending the rest of his life behind bars. As for you… Well, I didn't want my own sister to be sent to the asylum, so after fighting for a bit, I am now your legal guardian."So, you'll also be spending the rest of your life in this place. But don't worry, I won't let you starve. Those two nannies are going to take very, very good care of you. I'm sure of it."I then left with the baby. Brianna's screams and curses could no longer be heard after the door was shut.I then made a decision to give the two caretakers a huge pay raise. After all, they were going to need some monetary compensation for all the n
Saul Grant sat in his wheelchair. Despite being extremely pale and weak, he was still the picture of power and authority. He lifted his chin and looked at Jason Grant, his son."This is Hazel Youngblood. She will be your stepmother from today onward."As soon as he was done speaking, he started coughing so violently it sounded as if his lungs would fly out.There was a loud crash.Brianna Lewis stopped short before me with her huge, protruding belly, the plate of fruits falling from her hands and crashing onto the ground into a million pieces.Her voice shook as her eyes filled with disbelief."Hazel? How's that possible? How could you marry my father-in-law? How dare you?"I smiled gently and answered, "He wanted me, and I wanted him, so why wouldn't I dare? Didn't you also marry Jason after all?"Brianna's eyes were filled with unshed tears. She held a hand to her heart and cried, "How's that the same? How could siblings marry into the same family, one to the son and one to t
I chuckled coldly and took a few more steps closer to Brianna, purposely lowering my voice so that I'd sound like the Devil himself."Stop acting. You can guess what kind of evidence I have in my hands. Those of you framing and slandering me are useless, and the Grants won't even care. So, what are you going to do?"Oh, maybe I should give you a hint. I've got a few photos with me. They were all copied from your laptop last time. I've got photos of you with Jason and many other men. I don't know who they are, but I'm sure Jason will know."Brianna, Brianna. You've been cheating so much that I think you deserve a PhD for it. Oh, I think I've got some videos too!"Brianna turned a shade paler for every sentence I said. Suddenly, her gaze shifted, and her legs turned to jelly, making her fall to the ground on her butt. She then held her stomach and cried out loud."Ah, my stomach! Jason, my stomach! It hurts!"Jason hurried forward and carefully picked Brianna up from the ground. "W
Jason's eyes turned dark. He then grabbed my freely-roaming hand and pressed me down on the bed.I pushed my hand against his chest, preventing him from coming any closer."This is the hospital. Stop fooling around.""What are you afraid of? Nobody's going to come into the single private wards."He then loosened his tie and unbuttoned his shirt. A while later, his huge, firm chest was on display for me to see.I said shyly, "What kind of perverted things are you thinking about? I'm being serious here!"I then placed my lit-up phone in his hands and gently rubbed the back of his hand. "Wait till you've gone through all the photos in here before deciding whether you want to work with me."The phone screen was filled with photos of Brianna being intimate with many different men. Jason's face turned green as he scrolled faster and faster through the photos."I know she's my sister, but I really do not approve of such behavior from her," I said, fanning the fire by his side."She c

"What? Why are you calling me a psycho as soon as she appeared?" Brianna screeched. "Jason Grant! I am your wife! We are the ones who should be family."Open your eyes wide and see her for the scheming woman that she is! She's going to ruin the whole family. You're only going to be destroyed if you believe her!"My scalp was throbbing with pain. I struggled for a while. Then, I grabbed the chance to time my fall backward, landing heavily on top of Brianna."My stomach! Ahh!"Brianna's screams filled the entire house.I pretended to struggle to grasp my footing before finally getting off her. I staggered as I grabbed hold of the couch to help myself up.Brianna was still lying on the ground, facing the ceiling with her hand on her stomach. Her face was deathly pale as cold sweat appeared all over her body.I raised my hands in surrender. "You started it. Can't blame me for this."With so many witnesses on site, it could still only be categorized as an accident. No more, no less.
Jason's eyes turned dark. He then grabbed my freely-roaming hand and pressed me down on the bed.I pushed my hand against his chest, preventing him from coming any closer."This is the hospital.
