Blinded Dreams Chapter 53. Dilemma
53. Dilemma Wynter's POVI was still deeply moved by the words Mama Iris had shared with me, but I wasn’t sure what was right or wrong anymore. Every time I had expectations from someone, I ended up getting hurt. I didn’t think I had the strength to handle another wave of stress."Mommy!" Storm’s voice broke through my thoughts, and I looked up to find him standing in front of me.Now it was just me and Storm in the house. Ellie was with Hunter, and Mama Iris... well, I felt alone, and it made the overthinking worse."Yes, cupcake?" I asked, lifting him into my arms.Storm had been insisting on going to Mama Iris' house, but I’d had to emotionally blackmail him into staying here."Mommy, why are you worried? Did I do something?" He asked, his big eyes full of concern."No, sweetheart, Mommy was just thinking about work. I’m not worried about anything, alright?" I lied, trying to push away the storm of emotions swirling inside."Mommy, why did you send Dad away?" Storm asked, his voic

54. Clarity Wynter's POVI could see that Shadrach was a little taken aback by my unusually sweet demeanor, but I was simply following through with my decision to hear him out. I couldn't very well do that while he was standing there, so I motioned for him to come inside."Thanks," he nodded, stepping in and taking a seat on the sofa. He placed the toys he had brought for Storm on the side, perhaps a way of easing the tension between us.I wanted to tell him that he didn’t have to buy Storm anything, but I held my tongue. This might just be his way of showing he cared."Dad!" Storm came running toward us, his towel wrapped tightly around him."Storm, you didn’t change yet?" I quickly moved to stop him, but he was faster than me, jumping right into Shadrach’s arms."Hey, champ," Shadrach smiled, catching him effortlessly."Let him change first," I rolled my eyes, though a small smile tugged at my lips."It’s okay. He looks cute in a towel," Shadrach shrugged, planting a quick kiss on

55. Another Chance Of RedemptionAs promised, Wynter was willing to give Shadrach a chance to redeem himself for all the wrong he had done to her. He respected her wish to keep her distance, but that didn’t stop him from visiting the park every day. He sat on the same bench where they had spent countless moments years ago, hoping with all his heart that Wynter would show up.A week passed in this quiet anticipation, but Wynter didn’t come. Though disappointment weighed heavily on him, Shadrach refused to lose hope. He had made a promise to himself: no matter how long it took—be it a year or a decade—he would wait for her every single day.Today, like every other day, Shadrach sat alone on the bench. The only difference was that, in the past, Bella had been by his side, wagging her tail and keeping him company. Now, he was completely alone. Memories of happier times filled his mind as he stared at the empty park, wishing desperately for those days to return.Lost in thought, Shadrach w

56. Court NoticeWynter's POV As Sean had promised, a court notice arrived at my doorstep.I stared at the papers in disbelief, my hands trembling. How did he find out about Storm? The thought of losing my son sent a wave of anxiety crashing over me. Still, I steeled myself. I was confident—no matter what, I would fight with every fiber of my being to ensure Storm stayed with me.Sean had no right to interfere. He made his choice long ago when he wanted nothing to do with my pregnancy. I had informed him the moment I found out, but he had cruelly suggested termination. It was my decision to raise Storm as a single mother, and that alone would weigh heavily in my favor in court.But I couldn’t be naïve. If Sean was bold enough to take this to court, he must have something up his sleeve.My phone rang, pulling me out of my spiraling thoughts. For a moment, I froze, fearing it might be Sean. But relief flooded through me when I saw Shadrach’s name flash on the screen.“Hey,” I answered,

57. HearingShadrach's POVToday was the day I would face the court for the verdict. I still couldn’t understand what had emboldened these people to be so confident in challenging me. The entire night, I found myself piecing together events, tracing connections back to Wynter’s trail. The good news? I’d managed to uncover a link between the two. If my theory was right, I’d be vindicated—and, dare I say it, a genius.If they thought they could claim the assets this way, they were gravely mistaken. My confidence wasn’t born of arrogance but of preparation. I had counters for nearly every argument they could muster.I was pulled out of my thoughts by the shrill ring of my phone. Expecting it to be Harry, my personal assistant, I was surprised to see my kitten calling."Hello, Griz," I greeted warmly, a smile stretching across my face."Hey, Shadrach. What are you doing? When’s the hearing?" She asked, her tone laced with concern."I’m getting ready. Harry is on his way with some document

58. Moment Of ReliefWynter's POVIt had been longer than Shadrach promised, and I was certain the court trial had ended by now. But why wasn’t he back yet? The thought gnawed at me as I anxiously paced the patio, my gaze fixed on the gate, willing him to appear.After what felt like an eternity, a sleek black BMW screeched to a halt in front of the house. Relief washed over me as I saw Shadrach step out of the car. Without a moment’s hesitation, I ran toward him. He was still closing the car door when I threw my arms around him, taking him by surprise. It didn’t take him long to recover, though. He quickly wrapped his arms around me, pulling me closer into his warm embrace."What took you so long, Shadrach?" I asked, my voice muffled against his chest.He sighed, a weight in his voice. "I’m not sure you’re ready to hear what I have to say."I pulled back, my brow furrowed with concern. "What do you mean? Things didn’t go in your favor." I questioned, searching his eyes for answers."

59. VerdictThird Person's POVToday was Wynter's trial, and thankfully, Shadrach's earlier hearing had concluded with a decision in his favor.That ruling was a significant relief, a weight lifted off everyone's shoulders. They had celebrated the verdict well, and throughout this time together, the emotional gap between Wynter and Shadrach had begun to close.They were reconnecting, growing closer with each passing day. Though they hadn’t yet rekindled the full intimacy they once shared, both knew it was only a matter of time before they were truly back together, this time on a stronger foundation.Wynter was willing to forgive Shadrach but wanted to do so after the chaos in her life had settled. She dreamed of a beautiful future with him—one free from the burdens of the present.Recently, she had spoken to her parents about Shadrach, cautiously introducing the topic. Travis had even learned about Shadrach’s business ventures and expressed approval at having him back in Wynter’s life

60. Family Dinner"So, Shadrach, where have you been all these years?" Travis asked, leaning back in his chair while they waited for dinner. His gaze was sharp, betraying his lingering doubts. "And why did you stage your own death when there was absolutely no need for it?"Shadrach exhaled deeply, setting his glass down. "I had to, Mr. King. I had a target on my head. For over two years, I was in recovery, trying to heal from everything that happened. When I returned, my priority was taking over my father’s business, which had fallen into chaos. That set off a chain of events I couldn’t ignore."He glanced around the table. "If you’ll allow me, I’d like to explain everything from the beginning. Maybe that will help you understand why I did what I did."Travis frowned but motioned for him to continue. Shadrach explained the complexities of his family’s situation—his father's enemies, the dangers that followed him, and the necessity of disappearing to protect himself and those he cared

Blinded Dreams Chapter 72. The Ultimate Revelation
72. The Ultimate RevelationThird Person's POVTravis stood frozen, shock and dread coursing through him. Miller’s words had reopened wounds he had buried deep within himself. The realization of how close he had come to losing Wynter—the person he cherished most in the world—gripped him like a vice.

Blinded Dreams Chapter 69. Old Enemies
69. Old EnemiesWynter's POVWhen I opened my eyes, I found myself tied to a chair. My hands and legs were bound tightly, and my mouth was gagged, making it impossible to speak.I tried to piece together what had happened. The phone call with Ethan... the men barging into the clinic... being dragged out at gunpoint. I remembered trying to resist, only to be struck with the barrel of a gun, everything going black after that.Now, I was here, in complete darkness, unable to make out my surroundings. I tried to scream, but the gag muffled any sound I made.My eyes adjusted to the dim light and wandered toward the darkest corner of the room. I squinted, focusing hard. Someone was seated there, in the shadows. I couldn’t make out their face or even discern if it was a man or a woman.Then, the figure stood and began walking toward me. The sound of their shoes clicking against the floor echoed in the silence, sending a chill down my spine. I squinted harder, and when they stepped into the f
Blinded Dreams Chapter 68. Kidnapped
68. KidnappedShadrach's POV"Thank you, Mr. King. I really owe you for this one," I said earnestly over the phone, my voice thick with gratitude.Mr. King had just forwarded the proof I desperately needed to confirm my suspicions. My uncles were behind my parents’ murder. I hadn’t expected him to uncover the truth so quickly, but the detailed statements he had sent via email were undeniable.He explained that he had used his connections in Chicago to pressure the burglars, who were serving life sentences for the crime. Originally, they had claimed the murders were accidental—that they’d entered our home for a robbery and killed my family when confronted. But under Mr. King’s pressure, they admitted the truth: my uncles had bribed them to carry out the killings."As long as my daughter is happy with you, you don’t owe me anything," Mr. King replied in his deep, authoritative voice. Yet, beneath his calm tone, there was an unspoken warning that sent a chill through me."I promise I wil

67. Back To ManhattanOn their way back to Manhattan, Wynter couldn’t stop marveling at her engagement ring. She kept stealing glances at it, her eyes sparkling with excitement.“Mama Iris is going to be so shocked!” Wynter exclaimed as they passed through the bustling streets of the city.Shadrach, focused on the road, glanced at her and smiled warmly. “Maybe that’s the kind of shock your father needs to reassure him that I don’t plan on leaving your side anytime soon,” he chuckled.Wynter turned to him, curiosity brimming in her eyes. “Speaking of Dad, how did your meeting with him go? What did he say? I know he can be... intimidating.” Her words came out in a rush, barely giving her time to breathe.“Breathe, Griz. Take it easy,” Shadrach laughed. “I won’t lie, though—your dad is very intimidating. He’s got this aura, like he’s some mafia boss and not a CEO. Are you sure he’s not into something... shady?” He teased, though his tone carried genuine intrigue.Wynter let out a small l
