Five Lost Angels: My Husband's Fatal Deception novel Chapter 192

"No, it can't be true!”

My eyes blinked with incredulity, staring in horror. I tried to process the shock of the sight in front of me.

Due to Bright's rebellion, escape plan, and then staying at my Villa, I had expected that some uninvited visitors could come looking for trouble at any cost. I was mentally prepared for a decisive fight, unlike the silent retreat last time.

However, the person standing on the door was beyond my expectations, failing all my plans in one shot. My heart trembled at the mere thought of the upcoming drama.

My fight or flight mode activated as I tugged Bright's arm, fearing a sudden outburst of my guest aka Mr. Aaron from the Lockwood industries.

Yes!

The man glaring at us murderously was none other than the stranger I met in the rain, who then turned out to be Bright's fiancé's brother. The memories of that evening refreshed in my mind, making me realize that he was a vigilant elder brother just like Henry, there would be no limit to his anger after seeing me with his sister's fiancé at home.

Wait a minute!

Was he here for Bright or me?

As soon as this query popped up in my mind, I rejected it as a wealthy businessman would never bother about a girl like me. Aaron must have forgotten that encounter as an insignificant matter. Sienna was the apple of his eyes, her engagement with Bright was the only thing that could lure him out despite his busy schedule.

As I comprehended the actual reason for his visit, I regretted my decision to come outside in the twinkling of an eye, the thrill of my parcel had destroyed everything. If I could stay put, Bright would have handled him, saving me from this awkward situation.

On the other hand, Bright gawked at me as if I had just produced a rhinoceros from my pocket. I could just imagine the sparks in his brain, desperately trying to connect the dots, causing a short circuit. He was extra cautious about his whereabouts, staying ‘no contact' with his close friends. He strived his best to be anonymous.

It seemed that his efforts were fruitless, giving away his address as Aaron Lockwood was here to question him about his absence.

As we kept standing quietly, looking at each other's stunned faces, the suffocating tension hug in the air, tended to explode a bomb in my head. I almost felt dizzy under the sharpness of Aaron's gaze.

Although he was here for Bright, his watchful eyes were fixated on me. Perhaps, he was trying to intimidate me into telling him my connection with Bright.

"Laura? Bright?

How?”

The amazement in her voice clearly depicted our collective shock, where we all were startled to see each other. The queries dancing in the air were waiting to burst like an inflated balloon at its limits.

I could see the several question marks popping up over Sienna's head, wandering her round eyes like a popped eye toy in the claw machines of a carnival. She was flabbergasted to see a woman with her fiancé, probably planning to kill me for stealing her man.

But her next question actively opposed my idea as she said,

"Bright at Laura's house?

What is he doing here?”
