All Chapters of Entangled with my Ex-husband and His Stepbrother : Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Knoxville I glared at Helena, my eyes blazing with incredulity and anger. "You can't be serious!" I exclaimed, my voice low and menacing. I paced the living room, feeling the urge to lash out at her, to knock her to the ground and make her understand the gravity of her actions. But I restrained myself, barely. I was not a man who hit women, but Helena constantly pushed me to the limits of my patience and self-control. She made me question my own moral code, made me wonder if there were exceptions to the rules, if some people were so toxic, so destructive, that they deserved to be taken down a peg.I stopped pacing and turned to face her, my eyes boring into hers. "Why now?" I demanded, my voice cracking with anger. "Why, when everything was going good between Electra and me? You always seem to know exactly when to strike, exactly when to cause the most damage. You're like a viper, striking without warning, without mercy." I took a step closer to her, my fists clenched at my sides. "Y

I paced back and forth in the room, my legs shaking with anticipation. I wasn't exactly the poster boy for punctuality, but I was definitely never late, and if I was, it was only a couple of minutes. The waiting was killing me, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of restlessness.But I knew I had nothing to worry about. The DNA results would be here any minute, and I was confident that they would prove Helena's claims to be false. I would finally be able to kick her out of my life and focus on nurturing my relationship with Electra.The thought of being free from Helena's drama and manipulation was exhilarating. I could already imagine the sense of relief and peace that would wash over me once she was gone. And I knew that Electra would be relieved too - she had been a rock for me throughout this whole ordeal, and I was grateful for her unwavering support.Just as I was starting to think that the wait was going to kill me, I heard a knock at the door. My heart skipped a beat as I rea

Helena POV "So, who's the father then?" Maxwell asked, his hands folded around his chest, his eyes filled with curiosity. I was pretty sure if he found out the truth, he wouldn't be as curious as he looked now.I couldn't resist taking a jab at him, just for the sake of seeing his reaction. "Well, if you must know Maxwell, the child is yours," I said with a smirk, trying to keep a straight face.The look on Maxwell's face was pure gold. His eyes widened in shock, and his mouth dropped open. He looked like he had been punched in the gut. For a moment, he just stared at me, his face frozen in a mixture of shock and horror. I couldn't help but chuckle at his expense.His hands dropped mine as if I had suddenly turned boiling hot. "You are lying," he spat at me, stepping away from me like he was trying to pinpoint why I was lying. He looked at me with a mixture of disgust and accusation, his eyes narrowing as if daring me to deny the truth.I couldn't help but smile at his reaction. "Unl

Knoxville I gazed out the window, my mind consumed by the looming threat of Maxwell's power play. "My best guess is because he can," I muttered, my voice laced with frustration. "He knows he has a lot of people that would support him in an instant. They all think he is some kind of saint." Henry's expression was somber, and I knew he shared my concern.Henry nodded in agreement. "Maxwell does have a lot of supporters, sir. And when it comes down to it, he'll probably get the unanimous vote." His words hung in the air like a challenge, and I couldn't help but feel a surge of determination. Maxwell might have the upper hand for now, but I was far from defeated.I turned to face Henry, my eyes narrowing as I considered our next move. "He's that great a pretender," I said, my voice dripping with disdain. Maxwell's ability to manipulate others was impressive, but I knew his facade wouldn't last forever.Just then, Henry's voice broke into my thoughts. "You look worried, sir." I felt a fli

Knoxville POV I turned to face Maxwell, my eyes locked on his, as I delivered the scathing rebuke. "Your hands are dirty, Maxwell," I said, my voice firm and resolute. "That's the only reason you have the people's vote, not because you're competent to be the chairman." I paused, my gaze piercing through his facade. "They know you're an easy target, a puppet they can manipulate to do their bidding. That's all you really are to them, and that's why they'll support your attempt at a coup."Maxwell's face twisted in rage, his eyes bulging with indignation. But I wasn't finished yet. "You're right, I don't have the authority to return their shares," I continued, my voice unwavering. "But I've brought my father's PA, the acting CEO, to set the record straight." I turned to gesture to the acting CEO, who stood beside his lawyer, their faces stern and professional. "Let's hear from them, shall we?" I said, my eyes never leaving Maxwell's face, daring him to challenge me further.He cleared h
