Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother

Chapter 467: Ivan’s Call To Natalie

At the Browns, Briena was getting ready as she looked at Ivan, who was leaving for the office without even looking at her.

"Ivan, we have a doctor’s visit at noon for the prenatal checkup," she said. "I will come to your office, and we can go together."

He didn’t look at her but said, "I have a meeting. You can go on your own."

"Ivan," she raised her voice, "not even once have you ever come to the doctor’s with me. Aren’t they both our babies? Not mine alone."

"That only you know," he said and walked out of the room.

Since they married, they had shared the room for the sake of it, but there was no affection between them like husband and wife. Briena had tried her best to get close to him, but he always pushed her away, treating her more like a stranger. Other members of the Brown family treated her the same.

This marriage happened just because Briena claimed it was Ivan’s baby, and at that time, Brown Industries desperately needed the Ford Group’s support in their business to save their sinking company.

Briena followed him out, shouting behind him angrily, "Ivan, you can’t treat me this way. I am your wife."

"Suits you," he said and walked ahead anyway.

The family members looked toward the staircase.

"This bitch started early in the morning," Irene spat out. "Don’t know when we’ll get rid of this disgust."

"I have had enough now. You have to listen to me," Briena followed him toward the staircase and tried to hold his hand to stop him, but Ivan shrugged it off harshly, as if he couldn’t stand her touch, but...

Ahh!!!

Briena lost her balance and fell down the stairs. Ivan tried to hold her, but it was already too late. The entire family was scared and rushed toward her.

Briena was in pain. Blood had started to stain her light-colored dress along her thighs.

They rushed her to the hospital, and the Ford family was informed. While Briena was inside the operation theater, the family members waited outside.

Clara was worried, with Larry by her side, consoling her, while the Browns felt annoyed but had to behave.

"Mom, this man seems so close to Clara Ford," Irene whispered. "If I didn’t know Jay Ford, I would think this man is Clara’s husband."

The woman hummed and said, "This Clara didn’t come from any good background. It’s just that some of her relatives are in good positions in the government—it was all covered."
