Taming My Ruthless Billionaire Brother

He places the phone on his ear and Fiammetta speaks immediately thinking the phone was answered by her daughter-in-law."Liora, where are you?"

Learning about Liora's pregnancy, she hired a nutritionist, tonight, for the first time, she didn't stay at the hospital. She went to buy some nutritional supplements and didn't see Liora when she got home. Worried that she might have an accident being less than three months pregnant, she called to ask her whereabouts.

"She is here with me," Dashiell's voice was a bit hoarse. His suit jacket was missing, leaving only a black shirt. He had unbuttoned two buttons, revealing a more prominent Adam's apple than an average man.

He wasn't wearing pants, and his strong and straight legs stood in front of the sofa. His genitalia hadn't completely softened yet.

Having just fucked his sister-in-law, he answered his mother's call and told her that his sister-in-law was with him.

Liora didn't know what the conversation was all about since the phone was on speaker, she didn't know what Fiammetta was asking about.

She just heard him say, "Okay." Then the call ended.

"What did she say?" Liora was startled by her voice when she spoke, her throat felt strained, and her voice was only a whisper.

Dashiell handed her the phone.

With both wrists tied, she couldn't even unlock the phone. She held up her hands, hoping Dashiell would help. But he had already left for the bathroom. She could only place the phone on the sofa, lower her head to unlock it, and then check the call log, she contemplated if she should call her back or not.

She was puzzled over what Dashiell had said, not understanding why he said that, and even less clear about what Fiammetta said on the phone before the call abruptly ended.

But one thing was certain, Fiammetta must not have suspected anything.

She searched around and couldn't find scissors, so she bit the knot open. Her released wrists throbbed with a burning pain. She rubbed her wrists and then her left leg, and it was only then that she noticed the clear five-finger mark on her waist.

Dashiell was more aggressive in bed than Leander, and he lasted a long time. If not for this call, she wondered how much longer he would take to ejaculate.

Liora sat on the sofa, looking down at her belly, praying silently in her heart, hoping to conceive a baby tonight.

A baby with Leander.

However, what Liora doesn't know is that the moment she makes a deal with the devil, her life will take a different destiny.

The floor in front of the office desk, including the chair, was covered with water stains.

Liora gritted her teeth to put on her skirt. She then wiped the floor's moisture with tissue. The lewd smell hit her nose directly, and she couldn't believe she had produced so much fluid.

She tossed the wet tissues into the trash can and turned to see Dashiell, who had somehow come out of the bathroom, wrapped in a towel around his waist.

She wanted to start a conversation with him but she was speechless, she was so curious to know what he talked about with his mom.

"Our agreement will remain a secret right?" She finally said the question and he gave her a short response saying, "It depends."

He walked straight to the office desk and dialled the intercom, saying, "Come in."

"Is he inviting someone in now? Oh my gosh, this isn't right! What should I do?" She mumbled.

Finlo on the other end of the phone responded immediately, "Yes."

In just three seconds, the office door opened, and Finlo, dressed in a black suit, stood in front of the desk without looking away, awaiting Dashiell's instructions.

"Take her downstairs," Dashiell turned and walked towards the inner room. Catching a glimpse of the water stains on the floor, he softly instructed, "Have this place cleaned up at once ."

"Yes,"

"Mrs Liora, please come with me." Finloa requested politely.

"Okay, lead the way!" she said in an embarrassing tone hoping the ground could just open up and swallow her.

Liora didn't know if Finlo had noticed anything, but she felt so embarrassed that she almost didn't dare to make eye contact with anyone. She couldn't even lift her head in front of the elevator and stared at the ground until Finlo handed her a cup of warm water.

"Have this, it will help."

"Thank you..." She spoke with a hoarse voice.

"You are welcome, kindly wait here, I will be back."

"Okay!" Finlo took his leave and she started feeling guilty thinking of her husband at the hospital, "It's worth it, I am doing it for him."

Finlo brought back a box of throat lozenges and handed one to Liora.

He said nothing but seemed to know everything.

Liora felt as if she had been stripped naked in front of everyone. Thinking that someone would come to clean the office soon, her embarrassment was obvious. She hesitantly took the lozenge from Finlo and popped one into her mouth, relieved to see no gossip or mocking expression from Finlo.

The driver had been waiting in the parking lot. Seeing Liora approach, he quickly got out of the car and opened the back door.

After Liora got in the car, Finlo bent down to hand her a business card: "You can call me if you need anything."

Liora took it and nodded. She didn't think she would need Finlo's help in the future, but she still smiled gratefully at him saying, "Thank you."

"Stay safe.." Finlo added before they drove off.

Fiammetta wasn't home. The nutritional supplements she bought were all placed in the living room. As soon as Liora entered, the new family nutritionist came over to introduce herself, "Hello, Mrs. Liora, I'm Thalassa Vermillion. You can just call me Thalassa."

"Hello," Liora's throat was still sore, but her voice was now audible. She had taken two lozenges in the car, and they seemed to be effective.

Sable, hearing the commotion, also came out to greet her, "Welcome home ma'am, Should we eat now or later?"

"Let's wait a bit. Where's my mother-in-law?" Liora looked around and didn't see Fiammetta, she hoped she didn't find out about what transpired with her elder son.

"Mrs. Fiammetta went to the hospital. She said she's worried about Mr. Leander being alone there and she was also worried about you."

"Okay, thank you for the information." Liora felt relieved to hear this news.

She didn't eat much for dinner. Under the nutritionist's recommendation, she also had a cup of hot milk. Back in her second-floor bedroom, she took a bath and felt weak and sore, even a bit swollen.

When she cleaned herself, she gently touched it, luckily it wasn't very painful.

After finally finishing her bath, she dried herself and her hair. She opened her mouth to look in the mirror and found several cuts on the inside of her lips from biting. She applied medicine and also rubbed some medicinal oil on her wrists.

After tidying up, she returned to bed, feeling too exhausted to keep her eyes open.

Leander's pyjamas were still on the bed. Since his accident, she had been sleeping with it every night, as if she were holding Leander himself. "I miss you so much Leander, I miss you and I am sorry!! Forgive me, I have no choice, please." she cried and slept off in the process.

She slept deeply. The phone rang for the third time before she suddenly woke up, pulling the phone from under her pillow.

It was 5:03 in the morning, and the caller was Dashiell.

Her heart raced for some reason, perhaps due to the sudden wake-up or maybe because it wasn't yet dawn.

"Hello..." She slid to answer, her voice raspy from just waking up.

Dashiell's voice sounded unusually deep in the darkness: "Come over now." He ended the call.
