“Are you two fighting?” Helen pushed the door open, surprised to see the brothers in a tug-of-war over clothes. Seeing their aunt, Chase and Alex immediately released their grip and greeted her sweetly, “Aunt Helen!” Helen glanced at the scattered toys on the floor and pointed at Alex. “Clean this up. Your flight’s at dawn tomorrow. If you don’t pack everything in time, I’ll just keep all these toys for myself.” She said it like a threat, hoping to instill some urgency. Instead, Alex blinked up at her. “Aunt Helen, you’re not coming back with us?” “I still have some things to take care of here,” Helen explained. “I’ll come visit you guys later.” Chase, ever the sharp one, smirked. “By ‘things to take care of,’ you mean Uncle Zac, right? Haven’t you locked things down with him yet, or is Grandma Evelyn the one you still need to win over? How much longer before you bring him home?”Unlike Alex, who had already gotten used to calling Zac Uncle-in-law, Chase was still he

“Haley, your art exhibition is over now, right? I’m so sorry, my last meeting ran late. I’m on my way to the venue right now. Wait for me! I’ll come pick you up!” Justin’s voice was urgent, as if afraid she would leave before he got there. Haley glanced at the red light ahead and brought her car to a stop. “You don’t need to pick me up. Honestly, I’d be grateful if you didn’t come looking for me at all.”She was about to hang up. Sensing her intention, Justin quickly blurted out, “Don’t hang up!”His right eyelid twitched—a bad omen. Anxiety churned in his gut, and an overwhelming sense of unease crept in. A terrible thought crossed his mind. Was she planning to sneak onto an early flight and disappear without saying goodbye?“Stay at the venue, okay? I’m almost there. Just wait for me at the entrance.”Haley tapped her finger against the steering wheel, watching the countdown on the traffic light. She had planned this late-night departure specifically to avoid Justin. S

“Keep downshifting. Share your location with me. I need to track exactly where you are. Steer toward a road with less traffic and a green belt,” Justin instructed, his voice calm and steady.Then, in a softer tone, he added, “Don’t panic. I’m right here with you. Nothing will happen. I won’t leave you alone in this.” The other end of the line was silent. Haley didn’t know how to respond. But her survival instincts kicked in, and within seconds, their locations were synced. Justin locked onto her position, his jaw tightening as he ordered, “Step on it, William. Get us there faster.” Thankfully, the streets were quieter at this late hour. Inside the speeding Porsche, Haley’s frown deepened. The acrid, suffocating smell inside the car grew stronger. Meanwhile, on her screen, Justin’s location was getting closer.Frantically, she scanned her memory for the nearest incline, her voice low and urgent. “Justin, stop following me! My car could explode at any moment. Get away now!”

Haley’s survival instincts kicked in, forcing her eyes open just a sliver. With shaky hands, she reached for the seatbelt buckle, pressing down with all the strength she could muster. Her fingers dragged over to the door handle. She pressed the unlock button. But the door wouldn’t budge. She kept trying, over and over. But the noxious fumes filling the car seeped deeper into her system, making every movement sluggish. Even her fingers were beginning to stiffen. “Cough… cough…” A weak, broken sound escaped her lips. A wave of despair washed over her. Was this really it? Was she really going to die here? Helen had just gotten married, and she hadn’t even had her wedding ceremony yet. Her boys were still so young. Would they really lose their mother before they even had a chance to grow up? Mom… Wilfred… Richard… She would never see them again. Bang! Bang! Bang!“Haley! Stay awake! Don’t fall asleep. Whatever you do, don’t fall asleep!” Through the haze, sh

Emma stood up, rummaging through the metal box until she found the old phone. Sure enough, there was a reply waiting for her.“Target eliminated.”A manic grin spread across her face before she burst into hysterical laughter. “Hahaha! Now, I’m the only one left with this face! No one can replace me!”Outside the bedroom, the housekeeper shivered at the eerie sound. “Is Miss Xander watching a horror movie this late at night?” the housekeeper wondered.Inside, Emma’s laughter finally died down, replaced by an eager anticipation as she unlocked her phone and played the footage of Emily Yates’s supposed death once again. But this time, a new video surfaced.It showed Justin emerging from the flames—carrying Emily. The first angle she had seen only captured the explosion, leading her to believe that Emily had perished in the blast. But this proved otherwise.The woman she had spent years trying to erase was still alive. Emma’s fingers clenched around the phone, her knuckles tu

Zac sighed helplessly. “It’s not that I don’t care. It’s just that yelling her name won’t make a difference right now. The nurse already said she’s in surgery.”The two had met up at her house. Tonight, Helen had canceled their date because she wanted to go to the airport to see her sister and nephews off. But after waiting at home for what felt like forever, Haley still hadn’t returned. The security team and the car that had transported her paintings had arrived a long time ago—yet there was no sign of her.Helen had been growing increasingly anxious when Richard suddenly came across a breaking news video online—footage of a car explosion. The moment they saw the images, they instantly recognized the two figures in the video: Haley and Justin. Helen panicked and was about to rush out the door when Zac called. He had seen the news too. Knowing she would be too emotional to think straight, he had driven straight to her place to pick her up.As soon as they arrived at the hospi

The hallway fell into an instant silence.Zac took one look at Justin’s injuries and said, “You need to get checked out. We’ll stay here and wait for her.”Justin was covered in sweat and grime, his clothes stained with blood, his back in even worse shape. Yet, he didn’t move. He didn’t speak. He just stood there, refusing to leave until he saw Haley come out of that operating room. He needed to make sure she was okay. Seeing this, Zac grew anxious and tried to persuade him. “If Haley wakes up and sees you like this, she’ll be worried. Do you really think she’d want the man who saved her to be covered in wounds himself? Come on—”Before he could finish, Zac yelped. “Ow—ah!” It was Helen. Her hands had latched onto his waist, fingers digging into his side as she leaned in and hissed through gritted teeth, “My sister wouldn’t worry about him! Do you even hear yourself? If you don’t know what to say, just shut up! He got hurt? Good! He deserves it!”She might have kept h

“She’s still not out? Don’t panic yet,” Richard reassured her. “I just rewatched the video carefully—her arms and legs are intact. She’s tough, Helen. She’s going to be fine. Just hang in there and wait.”It was rare for Richard to comfort her instead of bickering with her, but this time, he stepped up. “Aunt Helen, are you at the hospital? Have you seen Mom?” Alex and Chase tugged at Richard’s shirt, their little voices filled with urgency. Alex was on the verge of tears, while Chase, being the older brother, was holding his emotions in check but his reddened eyes gave him away. “Uncle Richard, let us talk to her!”“Stop messing around, both of you. Sit down and wait. I’ll tell you as soon as there’s any news.” Richard pried their hands off his shirt, which was dangerously close to being torn apart. His sister was still alive, but at this rate, his clothes wouldn’t make it through the night. “Call me the second you hear anything. I’ll be waiting.”Tonight, there wo

On the other end of the call, Richard and the two boys watched the video over and over again. “Uncle Richard… is Mommy really okay? She has so many tubes attached to her,” Alex asked, his brows furrowed in worry. The sight unsettled him. Chase, despite being more studious, didn’t know much about medicine either. Like his younger brother, he turned to Richard with questioning eyes. Richard reassured them, “Those tubes are just monitoring her vital signs. Right now, your mom’s heartbeat is stable. As long as she stays in that room for the next twenty-four hours without complications, she’ll be fine.” “Another twenty-four hours?” Alex looked up at his uncle with a pitiful expression. That reassurance didn’t feel all that reassuring. “Alright, stop overthinking it. Get some sleep now, and when you wake up, the twenty-four hours will almost be up, and you can go see your mom.” Richard scooped up both kids and carried them upstairs to their room. After tucking them into

By the time Helen and Zac arrived outside the ICU, Justin was already standing by the window. He was motionless, staring inside like a statue—completely absorbed in the sight before him. Haley was still on a ventilator, her body covered in medical tubes due to excessive inhalation of toxic gas. Seeing this, Helen didn’t argue or make a fuss. Instead, she softened her steps and walked over with Zac. When would her sister finally be out of danger? No one knew how long they had been standing there when Wilfred arrived, his face weary from the rushed journey, his steps urgent. “You’re finally here!” The moment Helen saw Wilfred, she felt a wave of emotion rise in her chest. She wanted to cry again, but the thought that her sister had survived made her hold it in—crying now felt unlucky. Wilfred stepped forward and gently patted Helen’s head. “I’m here.” “Hi Wilfred,” Zac greeted as well. Wilfred nodded in acknowledgment. Meanwhile, Justin remained frozen in pla

A sharp slap echoed through the hospital room. Emma had just struck Jacob across the face. “Shut up! Stop spouting nonsense! Justin loves me! I was his first love, I was the one who saved his life—he loves me!” Something in her own words triggered her deeply. She couldn’t accept it. She could lie to herself all she wanted, but she wouldn’t allow anyone else to say it out loud. Especially not Jacob.That slap snapped Jacob back to his senses. Emma had once carried his child. If she hadn’t made the decision to get rid of it, that child would have been the first great-grandchild of the Yates family—one that would have already been born by now. Why? Why did the great-grandson get a share of the inheritance, but not him, the actual grandson? His eyes darkened with madness. Without hesitation, right there in the hospital room, he forced himself on Emma. He would make sure she gave him another son. *Outside the operating room, when Zac returned with the medicatio

Amid the heated argument, the hospital room door suddenly swung open, jolting Jacob awake from his unconscious state. “Emma!” His voice was hoarse, as if his throat had been scraped with gravel. That one call froze Emma in place like a spell had been cast upon her. Jacob was really alive! Like a relentless leech, he just wouldn’t die! Her eyes locked onto the man lying in the hospital bed, burning with hatred. Why was he still alive? Why hadn’t he just died already? “Come here,” his voice was weak, barely audible. “Miss Xander, go on. Mr. Yates is calling you,” the nurse nudged her, eyes twinkling at the sight of such a handsome man and beautiful woman together. They made quite the striking pair. The nurse quickly adjusted Jacob’s IV, removed the needle, and hurried out, even thoughtfully closing the door behind her. The soft click of the door pulled Emma out of her spiraling emotions. She curled her lips into what should have been a smile, but the expressi

“Hey, are you joking? The Yates family isn’t just rich—they’re filthy rich!” *Emma skimmed through the news, confirming that Jacob was dead. A satisfied smirk tugged at her lips as she turned to head back to the waiting area outside the operating room. So what if they didn’t want her there?She wanted to be there. She needed to see it—to witness Emily being covered with a white sheet. Slipping her phone back into her purse, she didn’t even glance at the comments under the video. There was no need. The report said, “One dead, two injured.” As far as she was concerned, the dead one was Jacob. After all, she had paid for both of these ‘accidents’ with her own money.She had barely walked a few steps when her phone rang again. “Hello?” “Is this Miss Xander? I’m a nurse from People's Hospital. A patient named Mr. Yates listed you as his emergency contact. He was in a car accident and has been admitted to our hospital. Would you be able to come in?”People’s Hospital

“What nonsense are you spouting now?” Zac scowled, his sharp gaze locked on Emma. What game was she playing this time? When had he ever said he wanted her gone because of Helen? Yes, he was telling her to leave, but for an entirely different reason than the one she had just implied. “If you and Helen can’t get along, then it’s best you leave,” Justin said, not wanting their constant bickering to disrupt Haley’s peace. Unbeknownst to them, the examination room door had silently swung open at some point. Justin stood there, observing them. It was unclear how much he had overheard. “Well, well! So Emma was trying to turn Justin against me just now,” Zac realized.“Justin, listen to me, I…” Zac hurried to explain, but halfway through, he realized that Justin was actually telling her to leave.Emma froze, her hand still pressed to her cheek where she had been wiping away nonexistent tears. What had he just said? He wanted her to leave? The tactic that had never fai
