WIDOW IN MY BED

Amanda carried a paper bag in her right hand when she entered the largest bank in Australia, which was no other place than where her brother was. Steve La Howard, the owner of the building, is also the most influential person in his country who is on Forbes’ list of the ten wealthiest men.

It’s been so long since the sexy widower has been left alone forever. Steve was trapped so deep in his heart that he took it away.

The truth is that the Howard family is currently experiencing a hereditary crisis. Amanda’s household is at the end of the court table. Steve, who consistently refuses to remarry, makes it difficult for both their parents.

Repeatedly, Sarah’s mother tried to introduce Steve to several women, but no one could steal the old widower’s heart. Steve insisted on not remarrying. The man’s steel wall was too strong for anyone to break.

Amanda walked in after asking Secretary Steve.

“Hello, Steve.” Steve immediately turned his eyes to the door and found Amanda walking close to him to hug him.

“Hey, Amanda. Please wait a minute. My work is almost done so that we can go to lunch.” Steve said without taking his eyes off his laptop.

The two of them had an appointment to have lunch together. Ultimately, Amanda decides to visit Steve with her prepared unique dishes, knowing that her busy sister will put their promise first-a workaholic who thinks of work as his wife.

Amanda insists on getting rid of the files in front of Steve and then organizing the contents of the paperware she has brought. “I don’t think having lunch here is such a bad idea because I have cooked your favorite food.”

“Just for a moment, this file is critical.” Steve refused.

“Steve, do you have to eat now that I’m so hungry, or should I just go home?”

The man was forced to close his laptop after seeing his sister’s face, who had a face pretending to be sullen.

“Okay-okay, we’re eating now princess. You’re getting more and more bossy about me.” Steve replied, “I don’t know what to do.

“I’m acting like this for your good. Try to imagine that there’s no me who will cook a good meal.” Omel Amanda was putting food in her mouth.

Steve grunts but continues to feed Amanda’s bottom into his mouth, “I have a chef at home.”

“The food I made was much better than the chef at your house.”

“Oh?” Steve raised his eyebrows like he didn’t believe it, even though he just wanted to prank Amanda.

“Yes, because I made it with the love of a sister.” Steve’s smile grew to hear Amanda’s words more like a flutter.

Amanda continued, “Brother should have followed my mother’s advice to get married soon and lived happily ever after.”

“It’s not in Amanda’s fairy tale, and marriage isn’t easy,” Steve said softly but seemed flat.

“Easy. I need to open my heart and get to know a good woman when you’re sure you can get married. It’s enough to go through everything independently, and sister needs a companion.” Amanda said that when she felt it was inappropriate to advise her sister.

A marriage proposal from someone who’s about to get a divorce is bullshit.

Amanda was supposed to stay out of it. Still, she hoped Steve would find the right sidekick, dispelling their parents’ concerns. Steve has the right to live happily with the abundance of love from his wife, and Amanda’s prayers are sincere.

“I can’t do it…” Steve said with solemn eyes, looking blank. Lonesome.

Amanda made a point of sarcasm. “You always say you can’t because you always reject every woman approaching you. You know, You’re hard as a rock.”

“Did I ask you to say this?” Steve looked at Amanda seriously, and he knew she was the one who asked Amanda to persuade him.

“Listen to me, Amanda, I don’t know if I deserve to remarry, but I’ll do it if…” It’s cut out.

“If?” Amanda couldn’t wait to hear the words her brother would say.

“If fate permits, if heaven blesses, and God gives his blessing… I promise I won’t say no more.” Steve said seriously.

Amanda smiled a little. “A man must keep his word.”

…

After lunch, Steve handed Amanda some pretty thick files. They’re both going to talk about Amanda’s divorce and what Steve’s going to do to a jerk who has dared to hurt his favorite sister.

Steve holds his anger in front of Amanda so hard that he finds out that Amanda is deeply hurt. It was like swallowing a sharp thorn when her beloved sister was insulted.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

The fragile body in front of him is how it can carry such a heavy burden, trying to stand upright even though her heart may have been crushed to dust, indeed painful and unbearable.

She was hiding her husband’s mistreatment in the hope that his loved ones would change, whether it’s naive or stupid because love always blinds everything.

Making love a reason for the justification of violent acts is wrong. It is not necessarily the people we fight for who will do the same for us.

“Brother’s lawyer has taken care of everything. Understandably, you don’t have to come to your divorce trial?” he said firmly.

Paying attention to her brother’s explanation, Amanda could only say, “Thank you for everything you’ve done.”

“There’s no need to thank you, and I’m just doing what I’m supposed to do. Brother, ensure that after this, their family will be completely destroyed so they can’t raise their heads again.”

Steve could have wiped out Chris’ whole family, even though Amanda didn’t want it, because that brother would have hated Steve if he did that.

But Steve won’t spare his intentions for revenge. Especially after all the bad things that happened to Amanda, his possessive nature will go too far and become an invincible shield for his sister, whom Amanda can count on anytime.

Steve continues to be followed by an evil grin. “My men have begun to move to destroy their company from within. Then, after that, you’ll get acquisition until there’s nothing left. And as for that jerk, I promised he wouldn’t be able to sleep well in prison.”

“Isn’t this too much?” Amanda asked quietly, doubting.

“What do you mean?” Steve’s voice grumbled furiously.

“They hurt you, and even that jerk dared to hit you. His family covered up the affair he had, and his parents hurt your feelings. Even though both parents knew you were being abused and violent, they’re still trying to cover it up. After all, don’t expect Brother to forgive them!”

Amanda got goosebumps at her sister’s voice, making the room echo loudly.

Amanda then gets closer to Steve and hugs him slowly. “Thank you for loving me so much.” Say it quietly.

“I’m sure you can also feel the pain I feel, so you behave like this. I won’t hold you back for any of your actions, but I beg you, I don’t want you to get your hands dirty.”

It’s like the weight on Amanda’s throat that’s been hot and clogging up is gone. Amanda can feel the warmth at Steve’s fingertips, holding him in her arms.

Very comfortable. Amanda’s convinced that the woman who got her brother must be fortunate because Steve will always make the world the woman he loves shine.

Steve stroked Amanda’s head gently, “I’ll try to keep it and be a better brother. Sorry for everything…”
