Chapter 9

Author: Mizuki Sei
If one could turn back time, Stefan was willing to risk everything to return to that night three months ago.

That night, on the streets of Newrest, the two brothers were assaulted as they were chatting about the family’s future. Tristan had selflessly protected Stefan using his body and took a bullet for him.

Moments before his death, Tristan mentioned that he had a girlfriend who he loved deeply, Briar Desrosiers. Moreover, Briar had just conceived their child.

“Marry Briar and live on in my stead. Please… give them a complete family.”

Stefan couldn’t possibly forget how his brother’s bloody hands held onto him, begging him with despair consuming him whole.

Stefan would surely push his brother away if he could turn back time, as it would have been better if he had died instead.

Hearing his answer, Briar continued with her pitiful act nonetheless. “Not only have you upset your father for me and the baby’s sake, but you’ve also hurt Ms. Everheart in the process! I feel really ba

This is a silly story in line. The older brothers lover. All she had to do was come forward and say that she had his child. She would have been treated like a queen in the family. She would have been considered his widow and the child that direct hair. Why would they make it so complicated.

  • The Untouchable Ex-Wife   Chapter 2681

    "Why would you even think that?" Xavier snapped.It was a relationship that was long over. Xavier never expected it to feel like a lingering sin to Leia, something she could never move past, something dragged out again and again to be punished.In the past, he would have explained patiently. He would have tried to reassure her and give her a sense of security. But after fighting over the same thing so many times, he was exhausted. It was to the point where he didn't even feel like explaining anymore.Leia shot back, "Why wouldn't I think that? Your relationship back then was so public and romantic. It was practically ripped straight out of a novel! So many people are still rooting for you two to get back together. Isn't that exactly because you loved her so much that everyone could see it so clearly?"Leia didn't think there was anything wrong with bringing that woman up again and again.Because in her world, everyone else did it for her.No matter where she went, someone alw

    "A breakup in disguise?"The moment Xavier heard those words, he froze. A complicated look flickered in his eyes."So, in your mind, breaking up is something you can just say whenever you want? Does that mean you actually want to break up?""What?"Leia was furious. Hearing that from him felt like he was pushing all the blame on her, and it caught her off guard."You've got some nerve! You're the one sneaking around to meet other women, and now you're accusing me of wanting to break up?""I met other women because I was curious how someone managed to beat my cousin so badly that he cried his eyes out. Even if those two were men, I still would've met them," Xavier said, completely unapologetic."Classic excuse from a jerk trying to justify himself."Leia clenched her fists, glaring at him through her anger."You're the one acting on your impulses, and now you're dressing it up with some fancy excuse. If you want to break up, just say it. Stop beating around the bush. I'm not afr

    Xavier became awkward and snapped his fingers. "I ordered a bottle of good wine. Since you're here, let's enjoy a great time… Come!" While talking, he naturally hugged Leia and walked toward the private room.However, it wasn't easy to fool Leia. She was struck dumb on the spot as she looked at Xavier solemnly. "You didn't make it clear. It's not over yet. Stop trying to muddle through."If Xavier knew it was two women beating his cousin up, he should try his best to avoid suspicion. It would be fine to let his subordinates handle it.However, he did not do so. Not only did he take it upon himself, but he also booked a private room and ordered good wine. It seemed like he wanted something to happen between them. Of course, Leia would not accept that. A sigh escaped Xavier. He answered honestly, "I was just curious. You know I'm a curious guy. I hope to lead an interesting life."Those words brought a pang to Leia's heart. She smiled. "You finally said it. You're at ease now.

    The men in black were Xavier's bodyguards who had worked for him for many years. Naturally, they were puzzled by his words.However, they would not disobey. Hence, they suppressed their power and put on a show with Leia."Ah, you beat me! Let me off!""Ah, I can't! You broke my arm. You beat me!"Naturally, the men pretended to be defeated by Leia. But Leia didn't have a great time. She pointed at the men and said, "Get up. Stop pretending. You don't have to let me have my way!""No, we didn't. We just can't beat you!" the leading man said sincerely."Nonsense! You're just mocking me!"Leia was no fool. She knew about her power. Although she felt that she could defeat them, they were not weak, either. Certainly, they obeyed Xavier's order and pretended to be weak.It was a humiliation for her, so she could not accept it. She wanted to keep fighting them."Boss, help! We don't know what to do!" They looked at Xavier pitifully. They had no idea if they should fight back or not

    Leia urged Renee to go home because she was worried that the latter might dissuade her when she tried to beat up those men vigorously.Besides, she was the one who had asked Renee out for a drink that night. If she delayed Renee and caused Renee trouble, she would be sad."Where is he? I'll go with you now." Leia got into the car driven by them. The car sped fast in the night. Renee reacted a little too slowly and could only see the rear of the car."Lei! Hey, wait for me!" Renee followed and waved frantically. However, it was futile. "This girl is so reckless. How could she get into a stranger's car in the middle of the night? She didn't even consider the consequences." Renee instantly got worried.Ordinary gangsters would not be bold enough to do anything to Leia, given her status in Beach City. But if she bumped into any bold or reckless people, the consequences would be unimaginable, given Leia's bad temper. At the thought of that, Renee could not lie idle. She hurr

    Not long after Renee and Leia exited the bar, a few men in black stopped them. "Ladies, did you know who you just beat up?"The men got out of the car. The leading man was considered respectful."He's just a feminine gangster. Why? Was it not enough? Do you want us to beat him up again?" Leia demanded coldly. She had not had a chance to hit that man and was so frustrated that she needed a place to vent her anger. Since they came to her, she was overjoyed."Calm down. We mean well. But the person you hit is the cousin of our boss. We need to explain what just happened," the man said calmly. It seemed like he did not want to fight them."What do you propose?" Renee asked the men."Yeah, we've got the power and means to do so if you want to." Leia pulled Renee backward and blinked at the latter. "You can't snatch the chance away from me again. After all, we made some negative news. It won't get any worse.""Fine, I'll listen to you. Just resolve it anyway you want. I won't meddl
