Semua Bab Fated to My Ex's Brother-In-Law: Bab 61 - Bab 70

Xavier’s POVI decided to go to the office after breakfast. Claire was so excited to gather everyone for a reunion. She immediately started calling everyone. I reached the office to find Jacob waiting for me. He had been working tirelessly to gather every information that he could about John, his associates, and how long had his web of deceit been going on. I was not going to stop until he was exposed and he had paid for his crimes. His crimes might not be against me or my pack but now, I was sure that he was using my sister and through her, using my reputation and power. That scum did not know the first thing about love. “From this file, it is clear that John had always planned to pin the fraud on Zoe’s father. That was probably the only reason he was with her.” Jacob deduced from the information that he had been gathering. “He got to know her. And through her, he reached her father without raising any suspicion.” I agreed with Jacob. “I need proof of every little step that he t

Zoe's POVI was expecting bad news, but what I heard was not something I had in mind. I was shocked to hear Xavier. I should’ve expected it. With Claire back, it was the obvious course of action. I shouldn’t be sad or shocked. “Zoe.” He called me and I realized that I hadn’t said anything in a while. “Okay.” I managed to utter. “Okay?” He asked. He must’ve expected a different reaction. Maybe he was expecting me to ask or maybe even negotiate. But I was still in shock at the news to understand the future outcomes. “Okay.” I repeated. Before either of us could discuss any further, the waiter arrived to get our orders. Xavier placed his order first and since my brain was not working at all, I agreed to have whatever he was having. The waiter offered some wine and I knew I needed alcohol to pass the evening. I had already made a fool of myself in front of him yesterday, I was not going to do it again. Once we were left alone, he said, “Don’t worry. I have taken your father’s c

Zoe’s POV“I still can’t believe it is really happening.” Maisie exclaimed excitedly. “I’m glad it worked out this way.” Jacob, who was driving, smiled at me. “Who would’ve thought my plus one would be friends with Jacob’s plus one.” Micheal, Maisie’s friend from Xavier’s Pack said from where he was sitting beside Maisie in the backseat. “This weekend is going to be so much fun.” Maisie was beyond giddy with excitement. She nudged my shoulder, “Say something. You love nature.” “Yeah.” I only managed. I was thinking about Xavier and the way he had cut ties with me. That was all I seemed to think about recently. “Wow. Love the enthusiasm, Zee.” Maisie said sarcastically and rolled her eyes. “Jacob, how long till we get there?” She asked, suddenly. “About 3 more hours.” He answered, focusing on the road. “Alright, how about a freshening up break then? We have been on the road for two hours. I need to stretch a little.” She asked. “There is a gas station in about half an hour, w

“That’s my lioness!” Maisie exclaimed from behind me. “Where did you come from?” I whirled around, shocked. “Through the door.” She smirked. I sighed. Of course, I didn’t hear her because I don’t have super hearing and I was so deep in my thoughts. “Oh my god, have you seen the view from these windows? Sunrises are going to be gorgeous. And we share a balcony!” She said hopping on the spot like an overjoyed child who doesn’t know how to control or fully express their joy. I nodded, still unsure about fighting for Xavier. He had explicitly told me to stay away and his ex was perfect. She was the type of woman who suited him. “Earth to Zoe!” Maisie snapped her fingers in front of me and then pulled me to sit on the bed. She was looking at me expectantly and I furrowed my brows in confusion. “What?” I asked. “You tell me what.” She replied. “I don’t get it.” I shook my head confused. “You said you would tell me something when we got here. We are here.” She told. I nodded in r

Zoe’s POVI contemplated walking away, but I knew it was impossible for a wolfless one like me to walk down the hill back to the city in this state. And that too in a different territory. It had taken us six hours to get there. I needed a car to go back. But I was determined not to face Xavier and especially not Claire. For that purpose, I knew I couldn’t just walk in through the main entrance and after a minute of gathering courage, I decided to climb in through the balcony of my room. The moment I was inside my room without any hitch, I breathed a sigh of relief. “What happened out there?!” I whipped around in shock to see Maisie sitting on my bed, looking worried. She immediately got up and rushed to me. She started examining my face and arms, “Are you hurt? Tell me, Zoe.” “I slipped.” Was all I could manage. The image of Xavier helping Claire out of his car and her kissing his cheek haunted me. “You are not okay.” Maisie led me to bathroom, “Go on. Take a shower. I'll br
