All Chapters of The Forbidden Step-Brother's Wild Desire: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Vanessa's POVSilvi looked so surprised, her eyes moving to look at me and Andreas in turn. "Don't tell me he's..." she gasped with her eyes wide. Silvi approached me with her hand over her mouth, she whispered, "Is he your stepbrother?"I looked at her with a frowning face, my lips pressed tightly together. I honestly felt a little embarrassed until I averted my eyes from her because I couldn't bear to look at the expression on Silvi's face. I nodded my head in agreement with her words. "Yes, he is my stepbrother.""Crazy!" Silvi exclaimed. She almost got up from her spot and startled me. She made me panic and reflexively held her body to stay there. "Her lips were tightly closed, and she was staring at me intently. It felt like I was being skinned layer by layer, and it made me feel like I was being exposed in front of her. "It's unbelievable."As expected, this is pretty unbelievable!Everyone in their right mind would think so. This relationship between us is quite crazy and a lit

Catherine's POVI looked at Uncle Erick, who suddenly came to my room without giving any news. What did he want to discuss with me in person? I knew he was swamped, but seeing him come alone without sending others to convey what he wanted to discuss meant that this conversation was critical.I don't know why he makes me nervous, even though I've been waiting for news from him, but now it feels like I want to buy time to meet him later because the expression on his face looks serious. Suddenly, I feel bad. "What's the news, uncle?" I got up from my chair and approached him, sitting on a different sofa in the same room with a small teapot in which I had steeped green tea.I wanted him and me to remain calm, or I just wanted to calm my nervous self with the tea. I don't know why I brought the tea to the table. I quickly placed it there, sitting right in front of her while pouring tea into each cup on the table. I offered the first one I poured to her."Drink it first," I told her so she

Catherine's POVI gasped at the screen of my phone after reading an article widely reprinted on various news portals on social media, all the news was about Vanessa who now recognized her status as the heiress of the Hector family.Shit! I haven't even gotten to do anything yet.Why is he doing it all of a sudden now? She's lived as a rich man all her life, but why? Why is she only now publicly acknowledging her social status? What exactly is she planning to do? What does she want to do by acknowledging his status?That woman really infuriates me. Is it possible that she has lost her mind? Is she not content with her situation? Why does she want to get all the attention? Why does she want to snatch all that attention away from me?!My heart was beating fast, my chest was getting tight. My breathing was ragged and short, my lips trembling. I was trying to control my inner eruption from exploding in front of everyone there. My hands under the table were clenched tightly into fists while

Jaxon's POV"Thomas said he was here." I stare through the windshield at a café on the side of the main road.I couldn't find Vanessa's whereabouts. Relying on my skills, I practically knew nothing about her. I didn't know where she lived, nor did I know her phone number and how to reach her. Everything about her escaped me. It was like she didn't exist, and even worse, I couldn't just walk up to her, even if I had heard about her from the media. It was so frustrating.But thanks to Thomas, I knew a bit about him. I once met Thomas at the bar after an event at Catherine's father's house. At that time, I told him something that I thought was odd to me. I asked him to find Vanessa's whereabouts, but since she wasn't publicly recognized at the time and Thomas only knew her as my wife without any other information, he couldn't give me a report.Yesterday I contacted him again and discussed the article that just appeared in the media, he was just as surprised as I was. He didn't realize th

Vanessa's POV"Miss Vanessa?" I turned around and found the guard at the house's front door calling me. I stopped my steps to wait for him to approach.The man seemed hurried and looked like he had something to tell me. Did I leave things out front? Getting a package or something? "What's wrong?" I asked when he was closer and standing in front of me."Someone came looking, Miss." The man spoke with a heavy tone of voice, his stern and expressionless look making me feel like everything he said was important, even if he was greeting me at the exit as I walked out of the house.I furrowed my brow. "Looking for me? Who?"He looked semi-confused. "I don't know if he was looking for her or Mr. Andreas because I'm unsure." The man looked confused.Likewise, I now folded my arms and scrunched up my face. "Did he mention his name?" strange, how could he not know who he was looking for when he was the one searching?The man shook his head. "I didn't get a chance to ask his name. The man only
