His Brother Before Me

Synopsis

Alexander Shaw is the ultimate brother enabler, spoiling Eric Shaw, his little brother, rotten at every turn. When Eric wrecks his car and plows into some poor guy on the road, the victim hasn't even made it to the ER before Alexander is shoving a fat stack of compensation cash into his hands. Then there is the time Eric gets into a brutal street brawl, shattering four ribs on one of the other fighters. But before the guy can even raise hell about it, Alexander has pulled an all-nighter, rounding up over a hundred cutthroat lawyers to bury that kid in court and lock him away in prison. All because the punk dares to slap Eric across the face. It isn't until later, when Alexander finally brings me home to meet the family, that things spiral into pure madness. Eric lounges there, jamming his hands in his pockets casually as he blurts out, "Hey, I kinda dig your girl. Mind handing her over?" And just like that, Alexander personally delivers me straight to Eric's bed. Alexander even masterminds my lavish wedding, chaining me to a man who sees me as a toy, only for my groom to abandon me at the altar. Left alone, I am publicly slapped and shamed by Eric's new fling, all while Alexander, the architect of my despair, watched from the crowd. I whip around to face Alexander with a bitter laugh. "Your brother's turned into total scum. You still gonna force me to marry him?"
