Semua Bab Beyond Betrayal: Marry His Brother: Bab 1 - Bab 10

Seven years of love meant nothing against seven months of betrayal. Some promises are easier to break than to keep. Kyros Arnaud Ferrero, the man I met at 17, was supposed to be my forever. Never did I imagine that his love would come with a betrayal. He loved me, yet he could hurt and betray me with the very friend I trusted.He could lie and cheat without even batting an eye. To get back at him, I married the brother he despises most—the current president of his company. *** Gazelle “You have an emergency shift tonight at the hospital. Patients have been scheduled and chosen to give birth today. I’m really sorry, Dr. Sinclair.” That was the message from my chief resident—one I never imagined would lead me to the truth about my fiancé’s betrayal.As a second-year OB-GYN resident, this marked the second year she assigned me to duty on Valentine’s Day.My dedication to medicine had always guided my choices, so I replied, “Noted. I’ll be at the hospital by the afternoon.” The sacr

Kyros and I started our friendship in middle school. He courted me when I turned sixteen, and since our families were also friends, it wasn’t difficult for us to accept each other. I accepted him before I started university. When I was seventeen, my bodyguard helped my kidnappers. Young and innocent, I was almost abused by them. But Kyros arrived before they could destroy me. Of course, there had always been rumors—whispers that those scumbags had abused me. But Kyros, my savior, had pursued me relentlessly, and I truly believed our relationship would strengthen both our families.Everyone in our circle—family and friends alike—knew that Kyros and I were each other’s first love. We had never been with anyone else; it had always been just the two of us. When I left the Sinclair family after a bitter dispute with my father, Kyros took that as his cue to turn our relationship into marriage.He loved me deeply—or so I thought. The years we spent together and everything we had been throu

Kyros quickly scrambled for an excuse. “Don’t overthink it. Her dad helped me in the past. I simply want to return the favor.” If he had said this before, I might have believed him. But at this point, only Royal, the administration, and Stella herself knew about her situation. Maybe Stella was pressuring him now, which would explain why he wasn’t wasting any time. “Kyros, I’ll be the one facing consequences in the sorority. I already told them my dad cut off his support—I can’t keep helping Stella. It’s not right for me to cover someone else’s expenses with money I don’t have. What would your family think of me?” His frown deepened. “Just do this once, Gazelle. I’ll be covering the cost. Why must you be so stubborn about this?” The moment his voice rose, he tensed, uneasy with his outburst. I met his gaze with indifference. “I… I’m sorry. You’re right.” Without another word, he left the villa, undoubtedly rushing to console his mistress. Pain twisted in my chest, bu

Kyros invited me to Ferroro’s Thanksgiving party. His brother, Maximus, the current company president, had expanded the business to major metropolitan centers, including Singapore and Dubai. I’d heard he planned to settle permanently in Bryston City now that the construction project he personally managed abroad was complete—though for how long, I couldn’t say. Playing my role as Kyros’ girlfriend, I wrapped my hand around his arm as we entered the grand hotel ballroom. The space glittered with familiar faces from our social circle, including Royal and several other friends who always attended these prestigious events. Despite anticipating my father and Cristina’s presence, my stomach twisted when I spotted them across the room. Cristina clung to my father like a leech, her every move deliberate, knowing full well that eyes were on them. Some guests feigned politeness, masking their judgment behind well-practiced smiles, while others sharpened their words, ready to strike if they s

I’m going crazy! No, I haven’t lost my mind yet! Maximus’ kisses have haunted me for days. Even now, I can sense the ghost of his taste lingering on my lips. ‘Get a grip…’ I waited for any word from Kyros, though I knew Stella wouldn’t dare tell him we had met. The moment their affair is exposed, it’s over for them. And she knows it. My phone lit up on the table, and a message from Royal flashed across the screen: “You’ll never guess who visited my jewelry shop this morning.” Me: “Kyros? He mentioned picking up the wedding rings.” Royal: “Did he also mention that Stella was with him? My staff said she was the one who tried on the ring because you two apparently have the same finger size. Can you believe that?” My stomach twisted. I need to confront Kyros. His growing comfort in publicly parading Stella around baffles me. I can’t let him suspect I’ve discovered their secret. Royal and I are close, so he must have known this news would reach me. The phone rang several tim
