MICHAEL'S POV The puzzled silence after those words shot out of Grandpa’s mouth remained; deep lines cut across my forehead. I was trying to make sense of the whole sudden discovery. How could they possibly know about Isabella? Not a word about her or her family had slipped from my mouth when I last argued with them. My eyes darted around the room, searching for answers in the faces of the others in the room, particularly that of my parents, who were also peering back at me with the same measure of curiosity as a bunch of strangers. Grandfather stood directly in front of me, his gaze sharp and unflinching. Dad leaned forward slightly, a deep frown creasing his forehead, while Mom’s eyes narrowed, her lips pressed into a thin line, a questioning mask. Grandmother sat still beside Grandpa, her hands tightly clasped in her lap; she was folding and unfolding it. “Why did you wait for so long, son?” Grandpa’s voice came again, but it was a bit calmer this time; there was an ed

General POVDr. Langston was sitting at the head of an imposing walnut table in the Rutherford Club’s opulent boardroom.The boardroom was an exclusive space usually meant for the VIP patrons of the club.From the very high ceilings to the elegant moldings that seemed to stretch into infinity.Langston had taken a leave from his duties at the hospital that day, claiming he was recovering from a minor ailment he described as sudden headaches. This convenient excuse allowed him to orchestrate this discreet meeting without raising suspicion.He had invited each of the guests under the pretense of an important revelation and to discuss some “urgent matters” according to the text messages he forwarded to them.As the guests settled in, one after the next, the atmosphere changed into one of calm curiosity. Some of the attendees were Harold Kensington, a seasoned investor; Marianne Sinclair, a philanthropist known for her influence in the healthcare sector;Victor Carmichael, a business m

Isabella’s POVIt was closing hours. I sighed, fiddling with my handbag as I stepped out of the hospital. The cool evening air was a welcome relief after the many stifling hours spent back there.I could still feel the weight of the day’s work on my shoulders—the straight row of surgeries, the tough decisions, the constant pressure. A few of the night staff bowed at me as I walked by, their tired smiles a mirror of my own exhaustion.At the parking lot, I reached into my bag for my car keys, but then I froze, my heart skipping a beat, when I caught sight of another car next to mine.My surprise wasn’t about the brand of the car; rather, it was the familiarity of it.Its color, to its sleekness, its license plate partially obscured by a small scratch on the bumper that I have seen countless times before.I stopped abruptly, staring speechlessly. My eyes scanned the vehicle, and just as I began to wonder if he was really here, the window rolled down slowly, and his face appeared, a p

ISABELLA'S POVI rubbed my eyes as the faint light from the morning rays shone through my window.I arose with a jerk as soon as I remembered what was happening today.It was finally the day of the fundraising event.It is the same event I have been planning for a while now.Everything had to be perfect.I yawned and pushed the covers off, sliding out of the bed with my bare feet sinking onto the cool floors.I walked over to my wardrobe, glancing at my reflection in the large mirror beside it.My hair was a mess from sleep, and my face still had that dry, rough look.Opening the wardrobe, I began sifting through my clothes.I needed something that exuded confidence and grace. I touched a tailored black dress and shook my head.“Too formal,”Next, I considered a deep red gown but decided against it; it felt too bold for the morning event. Finally, my hand fell on a soft lavender dress with delicate lace sleeves and a subtle shimmer.It was elegant and not in an odd way.It had just

ISABELLA'S POVI left the multipurpose hall with my heart racing. My hands adhered to the steering wheel tightly as I navigated through the hospital grounds, urging my car to move faster.Within five minutes, I was already pulling into the parking lot of the main complex again.The moment I turned off the ignition, I was out of the car, not even bothering to glance at the time.I quickly locked the door and started running toward the hospital entrance.But halfway there, I realized I had forgotten my phone.“Damn it.”I turned on my heel, sprinted back, unlocked the car, grabbed the phone, and locked the door again.Time seemed to slip through my fingers as I hurried into the building, throwing my legs furtively. In minutes, I found myself near the door of the judge's ward. The first thing that caught my eye were the police protocols in place—the tall, muscular bodyguards stationed outside the door. For a moment, I hesitated, but then I noticed their eyes on me.They recognized me

ISABELLA'S POVI sat in my office, staring blankly at the paperwork in front of me. A small smile was on my face, and my pen was moving across an open page, but instead of writing anything coherent, I found myself doodling absent-mindedly.My thoughts kept drifting to one person... Michael. A small smile touched my face as I set my pen aside, leaning back in my chair.Exhaling deeply, I reflected on the growing bond between us. It was hard to believe how quickly things had changed.Michael had somehow become a constant presence in my life these past few days, always showing up at the hospital to pick me up after my shifts. Thanks to him, I rarely drove myself anywhere anymore.My thoughts drifted to the day of the fundraiser again.I replayed the scene in my head—how I had walked into that near empty hall—with disappointment. But before panic could take hold, there he was, the first person to notice my distress. Michael had been by my side in an instant, calming me down and help

ISABELLA'S POVThe moment Michael’s lips touched mine, it felt as if something came alive inside of me. I yielded to the warmth of his mouth, and like a hungry bear, his hairy hands gripped the curves of my waist, pulling me so close that I felt the rough texture of his chest hair on my supple skin.My heart thumped a little bit faster, each beat echoing. Our kiss deepened, tongues touching, and his hot breath brushed the side of my face.Soon, I started to feel my joints vibrating to an electric surge.His touch was like fire on my skin, igniting every nerve. As his hands moved up my back, unzipping my dress, I arched into him, wanting more, needing more.Before I knew it, we were stumbling towards his bedroom, leaving our scattered clothes along the way, from his trousers to my bra and on and on. By the time we got to the bed, our pale bodies were completely bare and fastened together, with the kissing and touching intensifying by twice.The air was heavy with the scent of desi

Nathan’s POVMy Bentley glided through the gate of the luxurious estate. The morning was still quite young, yet a long procession of luxury vehicles was already making its way into the vicinity.Many uniformed officers were waiting at the route, their white-gloved hands directing the cars with practiced authority.As I neared the entrance, one officer signaled for me to slow down.I maneuvered into the space he showed me to and then eased the car to a stop with a final press of the brake. After that, I stepped out of the car, the door shutting with a solid thud behind me. Around me, other executives were doing the same thing; their movements were fluid and measured.The main conference hall was just a few steps ahead. I joined the stream of attendees heading toward its entrance, all of us making purposeful strides and a few of them murmuring quick conversations. Some faces were familiar, others less so, but we were all here for the same reason: the announcements of the long-awaite
