Once His Pawn, Now His Brother’s Obsession— Too Late, Ex! She Dominated His Entire Existence
RONANI was becoming a fucking prisoner of my own mind. I no longer could control my own thoughts. Every single time I closed my eyes, every single time I tried to work, the eyes of a certain woman haunted me like a ghost. Heavens. I’d underestimated her. I’d underestimated how powerful she was.That woman had stood before an entire ballroom of enemies and never once flinched.I hadn't expected that. At one point, I’d expected her to cower or worse burst into tears. I’d expected her to turn to me for help. Not once did she. She’d defeated her enemies and put every single one of them in place like she wasn’t the same woman who’d never raised her voice for years. For some reason unknown to me, I was so fucking proud. I reached for the same document on my table three times before realizing I’d never turned the page. Not even my signature had I signed. For the third time in one morning, I let go of my pen and ran my fingers through the thick strands of my hair which I was certain
Once His Pawn, Now His Brother’s Obsession— Too Late, Ex! Hard Planes Of His Chest
OPHELIA“Did I tell you how beautiful you looked in this dress?”Another line came undone. “Huh? You-you didn’t.”“Now you know.”I couldn’t help my snort. “Is that how you compliment your women, Mr Thorne?” “I do not have women.”“You’re terrible at complimenting.”He let out a breathy chuckle, one that lingered in my head more than it should.For a moment, we both fell silent. Neither of us spoke further as his fingers continued loosening the lace of my dress. When his fingers greased my middle back, I forced myself to remain stiff. God, his palm was so warm. Standing beside me, I could feel the warmth emanating from his body. I found myself wondering how warm it would feel if I leaned my body against his—my back against the hard planes of his chest.The sound of his breath assaulted my ears and even my skin. Once he got to my upper back, I could barely keep myself from trembling each time his fingers touched my skin.Although the night was cold and the cold breeze caressed my ex
Once His Pawn, Now His Brother’s Obsession— Too Late, Ex! I Need Help With My Dress
OPHELIABy the time we returned to Ronan’s mansion, it was almost midnight. Our ride back from the mansion was silent. Neither of us said anything to each other. I appreciated that. I knew my life had fallen apart the moment I found out Julius had stolen my child but watching it finally fall apart publicly and fully, it was a whole different feeling. I was finally closing the chapter of my previous life.The first thing I did when I stepped into the mansion was head straight to Alia’s room. Pushing the door open carefully, I peeked inside. She was asleep and her little blanket had somehow ended up around her waist again. That brought a smile to my lips.I took off my shoes and tiptoed to pull the blanket over her tiny body. “Always kicking it off.” It was a habit.Once she was properly tucked, I stared at her for a minute and pressed a kiss against her forehead.“This time, Mommy would fight the entire world for you. Goodnight, honey.”Only after making sure she didn’t move from m
Once His Pawn, Now His Brother’s Obsession— Too Late, Ex! I’d Love To See That Child
OPHELIAIf Ronan hadn’t already smashed his nose, I’d have done it. Julius didn’t deserve to mention Alia’s name from his scheming mouth.He didn’t deserve Alia.Yet I felt cold shivers run down my spine as his words echoed in my head as Ronan began to lead us out of the hall. What father threatens a mother with her child?“Look here.”“Mrs Whitmore, is the affair true?”“Mrs Whitmore, how do you feel?”“Mr Throne, why are you seeing your brother’s wife?”The reporters' insistent questions vibrated through the room as they tried to push past our security. Ronan’s hold on my wrist was tight. His footsteps were fast that I could barely keep up as he made sure I was behind him, his body shielding mine.Finally, our security stirred them off when we entered a quiet hallway. I paused, needing a minute to catch my breath. For the first time in this night, I let out a deep breath and crouched to hold my knees. Ronan stood there watching me. He didn’t say or do anything other than slippin
Once His Pawn, Now His Brother’s Obsession— Too Late, Ex! Destroying What Julius Cherishes The Most
OPHELIAWhat Kate didn’t know was that asking me for proof was the worst mistake she ever made.I glanced back at Ronan. When he gave me a nod, I gestured to one of Ronan’s men behind us. The burly man walked forward and placed my phone in my hand. While they stared at me, I quickly operated the phone and lifted it in the air before pressing play on the recording. Julius’s loud voice immediately streamed from it.[‘I’ll have to get her signature one way or the other. Afterwards, I’ll send you and Alia abroad for the meantime.’‘Will you come with us?’ Selena’s voice rang next. ‘For now, no. Once I acquire her inheritance and use it in getting the hospital back from my brother, we can finally be together as a family.’]Right there, I cut off the recording to find Julius staring at me in disbelief.I knew it. He thought that I loved him too much to ruin the one thing he cherished the most in his life— his public image. But was far too gone to ever consider what I used to feel for him
Once His Pawn, Now His Brother’s Obsession— Too Late, Ex! He Treated You Like A Queen
OPHELIA“Didn’t you hear her? She said no.”Just like that, Julius’s smile disappeared. His gaze shifted from his brother to me and then back to Ronan. Something dark settled behind his eyes and his jaw flexed once. “Who are you to step between us? She’s my wife,” he spat.Ronan didn’t so much as blink. “She was your wife. Now she’s about to be mine.”The entire ballroom fell into an uproar. The glasses of the guests around us lowered, conversations breaking out in every direction as they whispered amongst themselves. Julius went unnaturally still, his eyes narrowing.Although the room was in an uproar and the guests questioned themselves, a thick fog of silence enveloped us three for a long time.Afterward, my image-obsessed husband laughed.His chest rumbled lightly for a few seconds before he slowly shook his head. “My brother knows she’s my weak point,” he remarked. “He always enjoys provoking me like this.” And then his eyes deadpanned on me, locking mine in so tightly that
Once His Pawn, Now His Brother’s Obsession— Too Late, Ex! The Death Certificate Is Fake
OPHELIA“Mrs Whitmore, I’m sorry. This death certificate is fake.” The officer at the medical records department informed me.It was mid-morning, and I was standing at the medical records department of the same hospital where I’d lost my baby. Holding the very death certificate they'd issued then.
Once His Pawn, Now His Brother’s Obsession— Too Late, Ex! I Like You, Auntie Ophelia
OPHELIA Not a second passed before I pulled away and took a quick step away from him. “Mr Throne.” As always, my brother-in-law wore that same smug, unreadable expression. He said nothing. Instead, his eyes raked over my body slowly and deliberately, from my head to my toes. Then his gaze retu
Once His Pawn, Now His Brother’s Obsession— Too Late, Ex! Ronan Throne
OPHELIASelena paused the moment her eyes fell on me. She looked from me to the child and before I could blink, she hurried toward us, shoved me out of the way, and bundled the child in a hug. “Alia, dear.”I grabbed the table to steady myself.“Oh, my child. Thank goodness you’re awake. I was alm

OPHELIAMaternity match?My brows knitted together and I looked from Nova to the paper. When my eyes grew sore from staring blankly at the report, I again lifted my gaze to Nova who was staring at me with concern.“What is this?” I asked. “Whose is it?”“Ophelia.”“I don’t understand. Why are you
