MY HUSBAND'S MISTRESS Book 1 { Edited Version}

Time bomb

My brother gave me an odd look. He knew I had no courage to tell the truth, and then joyously replied to her. He informed Sophia of the situation on the ground, and at first, I didn't think Sophia would agree to the plans, but she did, saying it was for dad.

We settled everything before entering back inside the mansion. Mom wasn't in the living room anymore, which was heart-racing, given her illness. Fredrick suggested we look for her in the bedroom, and like he said, mom was seated on the bed, looking through some old photo album.

"Mom, we've been looking for you," I said, grabbing the photo album from her. I didn't want her to continue reminiscing about old memories that should be forgotten.

"Why? Is everything okay?" Mom collected the photo album from my hand, and just as she was about to look through the pictures again, Fredrick came forward and altered an abomination.

"Mom, I'm getting married again!!?" he exclaimed. That may have stopped mom from looking at the photo album again, but it sure got me panicking.

"Married again?" Mom turned her head to him. Fredrick then walked up to Sophia, wrapped his hand around her waist, and replied, "Yes! To my one and only love." He ogled at Sophia and grinned.

My brother's renewal of courtship gave birth to my marriage. And since I wasn't going out to get a new bride, he told our mom about Yulan.

What the hell is going on? Of course, since Sophia rejected him, Fredrick thought of using mom as leverage. And knowing about Mom's illness, she couldn't refuse. Sophia excused herself, and shortly after, I grabbed my brother, and we went outside to talk.

"What is wrong with you?" I pushed him against the wall the moment he stopped inside my bedroom. "What is wrong with me? I should be asking you that!" He diverted the question back, which got me more furious.

"What was that stunt you pulled in there?" I pulled his back away from the wall and then punched him in the cheeks.

He falls and lifts his head in amazement. "Don't be shocked, brother, I always get what I want," Fredrick gets up from the ground.

I picked up a vase at the side, and just as I had the urge to hit him on the head, he pulled away, and it slams into the wall.

"You'll pay for this, brother," I opened the door, narrowing his eyes to it.

I left home in the heat of the moment and came back drunk.

Everyone was asleep, so I managed to walk to my bedroom without waking them up. I wouldn't want mom coming out of her room and seeing me intoxicated. I was about to shut my bedroom door when I noticed a force from outside; I opened it, and Yulan walked in.

She was indeed the last person I had imagined seeing, but I was too tipsy to even realize what was happening.

"Hey! I want to sleep, please leave," I asked her, although my head was pounding.

"Leave? What if I don't want to?" She slowly approached me and started to touch my face.

"F.... Fuck.... leave me alone!!!" My voice rose and fell, and then I fell unconscious.

Question of the day: Fredrick used his mom's sickness to get what he wants, however, Chris finds himself in a dilemma the following morning.
