I Supported My Brother-In-Law, After My Husband Cheated On Me

I walked through the company doors and the buzz of chatter died down. Every head turned to me. I could see the shock on the faces of the people around as their eyes fell on me.

A feeling of nostalgia hit me as I looked at everyone, it had been three years! It got me all emotional for a second. But in the next moment, I managed to keep my emotions collected.

Kaden was walking a few steps behind me, exuded an aura of power and mystery, his tailored suit and sharp handsome features demanding respect without uttering a word. He earned some glances from around and nothing much until just then, the manager appeared and bowed in front of us.

“Mr. Kaden,” Daniel said, his voice trembling slightly.

That was all it took. The murmurs died instantly, replaced by stunned silence. The realization rippled through the room like a shockwave this was the Kaden, the mysterious figure everyone been expecting but no one had ever seen.

Daniel straightened, composing himself. “Sir, I’ll escort you to your new office.” He gestured toward the elevator, clearly eager to appease him.

I stepped forward, cutting him off. “Hold on,” I said, my voice calm but commanding. “Shouldn’t Mr. Kaden be given the topmost floor? Only the highest-ranking person in the company gets that space, isn’t that right?”

Daniel hesitated, clearly caught off guard by my question. His eyes darted nervously between me and Kaden before he finally stammered, “Well... that floor is currently occupied by Mr. Kevin Bennett.” Daniel signed to me.

I couldn’t suppress the laugh that escaped my lips. “Kevin?” I said, arching an eyebrow. “Mr. Kaden was invited here to take over as CEO therefore he holds the highest position in the company. Surely, the topmost floor should belong to him.”

Daniel’s face flushed, and he looked as though he might protest, but I didn’t give him the chance. I stepped into the elevator and pressed the button for the top floor.

“Come on, Mr. Kaden,” I said, throwing him a smug smile. “Your office is waiting.”

The employees who had been watching in stunned silence exchanged wide-eyed glances at what had just happened now. I could feel the weight of their shock as Kaden followed me into the elevator without a word.

As the doors closed, I glanced at Kaden, whose expression remained unreadable. He didn’t protest or comment, but the faint upward curve of his lips told me he understood what I was doing.

“Although I don't full trust you get, the way you do things is very interesting,” Kaden signed wearing a smug smile on his face.

I shrugged my shoulders as I chuckled lightly. This was only the beginning. Kevin had claimed the top floor as a display of his dominance, but that was over now. And soon, I'll make sure everything he thought he owned would crumble around him.

“If you're honest and being serious, then I would like to be business partners, and who knows friends with you.” Kaden said with a straight face.

I only smiled and nod my head. The elevator doors flew open and we both stepped out. I knew that it wasn't easy to gain his trust but i must work this deal out.

*****

Bang!

After an hour since we moved inside, the office door suddenly burst open with a loud bang without any notice. I turned around, my smile soft and seemingly innocent.

Kevin stood there, his face was dark with a mix of shock and anger. He didn't even bothered to mask his emotions as his eyes darted between me and Kaden, who stood calmly by the window, his hands casually tucked into his pockets.

“Oh Kevin, you're here already.” I calmy called out to Kevin.

Kevin’s jaw tightened, his gaze locking onto Kaden. “What is he doing here?” he demanded, ignoring my question entirely. His voice was sharp, but there was an undercurrent of unease he couldn’t hide.

Kaden turned to face him, his expression impassive but his presence commanding. “Nice to see you too, Kevin,” he said after a moment of observing Kevin. “It seems the company has been running... adequately in my absence.”

My lips curled into a smile as I stepped forward to place myself between them. “Oh, Kevin,” I said, tilting my head innocently. “I thought you’d be happy to see your brother back. After all, he’s here to take the company to new heights. Isn’t that exciting?”

Kevin’s eyes narrowed, his anger now directed at me. “You knew about this?” he questioned.

“Of course,” I replied smoothly, maintaining my smile.

“You didn't see fit to let me know?” Kevin signed furiously.

“Of Course I did,” I shrugged my shoulders. “This is the surprise we talked about Kevin.” I pointed at Kaden.

Hearing that Kevin’s glare darkened, He wasn’t prepared for this, he was stunned!

This was the perfect effect I wanted on Kevin and it sure played out well. I wanted to burst out laughing but I still kept my innocent smile like I didn't know what was going on.
