Chapter 40

Autor: Summer Knowles
Lindsey gazed at Lucy with admiration, laying on the flattery. "Oh my god, Lucy, your brother's so sweet! I heard CEOs are super busy, yet he makes time to pick up his sister!"

Lucy preened under the praise, smirking proudly. "Well, of course. My brother totally dotes on me. I'm his favorite."

"God, Lucy, I'm so jealous! You've got the looks, the family background, and such an amazing brother... I've never even been in a Maserati!" Lindsey gushed, secretly hoping Lucy would offer her a ride. She could already imagine the Instagram photos making her high school friends green with envy.

As expected, Lucy scoffed dismissively. "Look at you, acting like you've never seen luxury before. Fine, I'll have my brother give you a ride too!"

With that, Lucy strode toward James.

“James, what brings you here today?" she called out in an artificially sweet voice, basking in the attention from passing students. Sure, she'd always had a private driver, but James had forced her to keep things low-k

    “James, do you think this dress looks good on me?” Charlotte twirled excitedly in front of him, wearing one of the newest designer pieces that had just hit the market.But James was already in a foul mood. With his mind weighed down by stress and no outlet for his frustration, the sight of her beaming with joy only set him off more.“All you ever do is shop and lounge around,” he snapped. “As my wife, I expected you to learn something more meaningful than just picking out clothes.”Charlotte froze, stunned by his sudden outburst. She stood there, unsure what to say. “James... what’s wrong with you?”He didn’t answer, just let out a cold scoff and turned away, making it clear he had no interest in continuing the conversation.Panic flared in her chest. She took a step forward, scrambling to explain.“I… I don’t just spend money all day. I’ve been doing a lot around the house. I really have…”“That’s enough,” he cut her off, clearly losing patience.“There’s no point in talking s

    “Let me go!” Vivian screamed at the top of her lungs.On the van’s hidden cameras, everything was captured in painfully sharp detail. Several men pinned her down. She screamed and struggled, her voice breaking into ragged sobs.Steven’s eyes burned red as he stared at the live feed. The van was large, its tinted glass aimed directly at Vivian’s face. To him it was as if he were reliving Scarlett’s nightmare, watching the woman who had orchestrated it now tasting the same terror.That cursed surveillance footage had been used to control him for months. Now the footage he was creating would control Vivian. This was his way of giving Scarlett a first step toward healing.An hour later the men filed out of the van. Steven opened the door and stepped inside, camera in hand. Vivian lay slumped across the seat, her clothes torn, hair disheveled, and lips streaked with blood.He raised the camera and took a few deliberate shots.Vivian’s cracked lips trembled as she stared at him with

    The Ferrari door swung open, revealing a long, slender leg first.The man at the front let out a low whistle and stepped closer with a grin. “Miss Wilson, you’re more dazzling than the moon itself.”Vivian’s expression didn’t change. “Enough with the nonsense. Where’s the man I asked for?”“Of course we brought him,” the leader said smoothly. “When you give an order, Miss Wilson, we wouldn’t dare slack off.” He clapped his hands twice.One of his men dragged an unconscious doctor forward and dumped him onto the dirt, raising a cloud of dust.Vivian frowned. “What did you do to Dr. Seth?”“Relax,” the man said easily. “Just a mild sedative. He’ll wake up soon. Otherwise, how could we get him to come quietly?”Vivian exhaled in relief and crouched down, carefully peeling off the hood covering the doctor’s face.The moment she saw him clearly, her hand jerked back. Her mind went blank, and an alarm bell went off in her head.“This isn’t Dr. Seth. You’ve been tricked,” she snapped

    The doctor had just finished speaking when the head of psychiatry added, “In all our centuries of study in the mental health field, we’ve identified similar cases. When we analyze them, we find most patients who remain in a coma have suffered major psychological trauma. In other words, they don’t want to wake up.”“Dr. Seth,” the psychiatrist continued, “our team has run a full set of exams on Mr. Reynold, both intracranial and peripheral nerve checks. We haven’t found any clear physiological abnormalities.”Dr. Seth and his translator spoke for a moment. Then the translator rendered Dr. Seth’s words verbatim: “After a preliminary exam yesterday, the doctors found no obvious nerve damage in Mr. Reynold. It looks like an acute cardiac event triggered by extreme emotional stress. There may be other factors involved. We need to wait for the full lab results before drawing firm conclusions.”Zachary nodded. He already understood the situation. Some test results would come back today; ot

    “Can you do me a favor?”Leon turned serious. “Just say it.”Sarah pointed to the video on screen, her voice cold. “Make this disappear. Mia’s not that kind of person.”Leon chuckled. “If I help you, what do I get in return?”Sarah turned off the TV and leaned back against the sofa. “Then forget it.”“I’m kidding,” Leon said with a faint smile. “I’ll take care of it.”---City General Hospital.Vivian had been waiting outside Mr. Reynold’s hospital room, hoping to catch Dr. Seth. When he finally walked out, she hurried after him.“Dr. Seth, please, I’d like you to see my grandfather. I’ll pay whatever it takes!”She had to squeeze her way into the elevator. After finishing his consultation with Mr. Reynold, Dr. Seth had headed straight for the elevators with no intention of lingering.One of his assistants immediately stepped between them. “I’m sorry, miss. The doctor needs to return to the hotel and rest.”Vivian refused to give up. “It won’t take long, I promise!”She sw

    After the assistant left, Zachary called Mia several times, but she didn’t pick up. Each time, the line went unanswered.She wasn’t at home. She wasn’t at school. Even Lucas had no idea where she had gone.It wasn’t until Zachary watched the video again that he spotted someone in the background. It was Marcus.He dialed his number right away. This time, the call was picked up immediately.“Mr. Reynold? I can’t believe you’re calling me,” Marcus said, clearly caught off guard.“Cut the nonsense. Where’s Mia?” Zachary’s voice was cold.“I don’t know,” Marcus replied with a nervous laugh.“You went to Wilson Group, didn’t you?” Zachary asked.Marcus sounded even more anxious now. “Mr. Reynold, she told me to go. I couldn’t say no!”“Then tell me everything, word for word,” Zachary ordered.Marcus paused, then hurriedly explained the entire sequence of events. “After we left Wilson Group, she didn’t say much. Just told me she wanted to go to a place that made her feel safe. I off
