Chapter 24 Chapter 24 ww SCARLET After dinner , everyone gathered back in the living room with Miss Universe .
She sat like a queen next to Luke , who couldnt stop glaring at me .
Why couldnt he just tell me he didnt want to transfer his property and kill me ? Alright , shall we begin ? Miss Universe announced as she opened the folder with the Transfer of Rights title .
Wait , Luke suddenly interrupted .
He held Miss Universes wrist , preventing her from opening the file .
Luke , what is it ? she asked with a frown .
Read the one with the Transfer of Stocks .
Im taking this folder .
His jaw ticked .
IIe forcibly took the folder from Miss Universe , which made her jolt in surprise .
Whats going on , Lucas ? Thomass voice was tight .
I think I need more time , he uttered , his voice glacial .
I dont think this is right .
Luke , you already signed these papers , Miss Universe reminded , her voice still calm and light .
Its already valid , and I registered this in the court .
Which document is that ? Thomas asked her .
Its the affidavit of rights that hes transferring 15 % of his properties to Miss Scarlet Carter , and this includes the Villa Beatrice at Southampton and 3 % of his stocks in Alejandro Technologies , she answered right away .
We cannot proceed with the Title transfer without these files .
Shall we proceed to the properties you own instead , Mr.
Alejandro ? she asked Thomas .
No , no .
Can you explain the reason for the delay , Lucas ? Thomas questioned again , and I could already tell that he was furious , but Mom was holding his hand to calm him down .
Its okay , Thomas .
Obviously , Luke is not willing to do this .
Well , who would ? There was no reason for him to give what he worked hard for to a stranger .
I sent him sarcastic a smirk he wouldnt forget .
Also , I never wanted any of this anyway .
Lukes gaze darkened , seething under his b Go ahead ! Get mad at me ! At least show who in you really are However , Mom cautioned me .
Scarlet , dont say your father ! w that .
No one thin youre a stranger .
Sorry , I didnt mean to say it , but Luke already made it clear that I was an outsider .
Miss Universe was more welcomed in this house than I was .
Oh ! I almost forgot that she was sitting with us .
At least she heard what I felt about this transfer of properties .
I wanted her to know that I didnt ask for any of it , even if her opinion didnt really matter .
If she was Lukes girlfriend, the transfer of properties would matter to her in the future .
But he did humiliate me in front of Miss Universe when he took back the documents .
You and I are going to talk , he pointed out directly to me .
Alone .
He made it sound like anything but a simple talk , though .
He was challenging me .
Theres nothing to talk about .
It is clear to me now .
He didnt seem to care about everything I said to him .
He stood up , then grabbed my wrist , gripping me tightly , and then he pulled me up .
He dragged me away with him .
Lucas ! his father called out , then he stood .
What the hell are you doing ?! Its time we talk and settle things with my little sister , Dad .
He emphasized his spiteful endearment but didnt let anyone hear as he said it in my ear .
Dragging me upstairs , he opened a door and shoved me inside .
Ouch ! I cried in pain from his hard grip .
12:54 After My Death My Flush Chapter 24 He turned on the lights , and the room turned out to be the library , given the floor to ceiling shelves across every wall .
He held my shoulder tight , his fingers digging into my skin .
He was hurting me .
Let me ask you something and answer me with the truth .
His eyes were scorching in pure anger , and breathing heavily like a wild animal that was about to eat his prey .
I sucked my breath when he placed his hand on my lower back and pulled me against him .
He strummed his fingers against the hem of my shirt .
It depends … I said breathlessly .
Depends on what ? he hissed .
On what youre about to ask .
Okay … He lowered his face on mine , our noses almost touching .
How old are you ? What ? Answer me .
His hands trailed up my spine until his fingers reached the hook of my bra .
I gasped .
Im Im twenty four … How about your occupation ? What was he going on with this ? Youre not making any sense to me right now .
He pressed a thumb on my lip , cutting me off .
I think we are in the middle of a great lie and deceit .

No , we are not ….
We definitely are , Ericka .
His free hand grasped my ass and slid his finger into my panties .
Its the fact that I made myself clear about how I hate fucking liars .
You befriended me online , but you turned out to be a different woman that you said you were .
You are good at covering your tracks .
I thought we discussed what I hate the most , did we not ? I could already feel my blood draining my face .
My heart skipped a beat , ready to jump out of my chest .
Oh my God … Are you going to answer me , Ericka ? I never thought that Jax … He stared into my eyes .
He didnt say anything further , but he let go of 1 me , stepping backward .
Dont you think I deserve an answer ? I never wanted to meet you … I can see that .
He lowered his eyes to my breasts .
As I can see , you are willing to lose our friendship .
Ah , since you turned out to be Genes daughter , we could never be friends .
If only I had known .
I would have ~ Keep it to yourself .
He cut me off .
Ive heard enough .
I swallowed hard .
When did you find out ? Is this why … is this … I told you its not going to be easy .
Whatever relationship we had , its over .
I dont want to see you anywhere in this house , and dont show up in front of me .
Jaz … He glared at me .
My name is Luke , and Im fucking done playing that game .
12:54 After My Death My Husband von Chapter 24 Im really sorry , I never thought that this would happen .
You will never have a single cent from me .
Do you understand that ? I dont want it anyway .
Please let me explain .
Luke … Theres no need to explain .
Please … But he didnt waste any more time .
He turned away and exited the room .
I didnt go downstairs when he left .
I doubted that he would ever tell our parents what happened .
I just went straight to my bed and cried it out .
I heard Moms worried voice behind the door , but I didnt answer .
I just didnt want to face anyone .
Another morning , still unable to forget .
I tried again to figure out how he found out .
It couldnt be on the first day .
He would never have talked to me or even fetched me at the airport if he knew .
That day , I was texting Jax , and it turned out to be the man who was already in front of me .
What kind of sick fate was this ? Of all the people in the world , why does it have to be Luke ? The wrong text message .
As the water continued to pour on my skin , I thought deeply about the past weeks .
Jax really did turn out to be the sexy man I always pictured him to be .
I still remembered our late night phone calls , the steamy phone sex , and the dirty messages he sent me from the past .
Its still saved on my phone .
I blushed at the thought that Luke made me cum for real while he was Jax .
The man Id been fantasizing about was the same man I was talking to almost every night .
But it was all over now .
Id ruined everything .
Wiping away my tears , I turned off the shower and stepped out .
I wrapped myself in a towel .
I picked up my phone first to text Nate .
I was finally going out today and planned to go home very late when everyone is asleep .
I typed a message .
Can we meet early ? 9 AM sharp at Storico .
I hit send .
My phone clock said it was still seven thirty .
But I wasnt planning on having breakfast with them .
I was about to send another text to Kath when there was suddenly a knock on my door .
I heard Moms voice , Scarlet , breakfast is ready .
I sighed in deep frustration .
Coming Mom ! I shouted back .
I continued to type another message to Kath .
Meeting Nate at 9.
Will send you an update .
Then I tossed the phone onto the bed to pick up my panties .
Another knock .
Mom , Im coming okay- I dropped the panties back on the bed and opened the door .
It wasnt Mom but Luke .
He was dressed in a pair of blue jeans and a casual white T shirt that slightly clung to his chiseled abs .
I tried to slam the door in his face , but he pushed it open and stepped inside my room .
Listen to me .
His voice was flat .
Arent we done after last night ? He looked into my eyes .
You told me that youre a graduate .
You said youre twenty eighty years old .
How can you lie about things as simple as that ? I said I would never meet you .
So , when you said youd meet me next week , it was a lie too ? I started to step backward , but he was only matching my every step .
I felt the cold wall against my back .
Its a huge mistake , yes .
Thats why I said Im sorry .
Mistake ? Do you understand how fucked up this is ? You said youre done playing with this game .
You dont want me to explain , I murmured , our lips were too close .
I was looking forward to fucking the woman who befriended me online , he whispered into my ear .
I wanted her mouth , I wanted her to taste me, to 12:54 Chapter 24 ride me .
I want to teach her everything .
I wanted my cock inside her… He breathed into the skin of my neck , You fucked this up , witch .
And do you know whats more fucked up than all of this ? I grabbed the thin fabric of his shirt .
Jax ….
Its Luke , witch .
His fingers slid underneath the towel near my breast .
Whats more fucked up now is that I couldnt do it anymore .
You are Genes daughter and my fathers stepdaughter .
If you only told me who you were , it wouldnt have ended up like this .
What were you going to do if you found out I was your stepsister before we even knew it ? Im sure I could think of something .
Right now , all we could do is deceive ourselves pretending that theres nothings going on between us .
But there is … And youre still planning to do that ? No.
He stopped playing with the towel and kept me wrapped with it .
I thought you didnt like liars .
But deceiving yourself is also lying .
Im not going to lie .
But I told you , its not going to be easy .
