We arrived at the Knight Palace, and I parked Claire’s car outside the mansion and went inside.

I looked at the entire Knight with a mix of frustration and concern. The Stones have also arrived; maybe they are helping with what happened to the chairperson. So, I approached them and gained their attention.

“Are you all okay?” I asked. My cousins came up to me.

“The chairperson was ambushed, and our other personnel died, TSK,” said Sandro. Sandro Knight is the son of uncle Alejandro.

“Someone informed us that our enemies were planning to ambush the chairperson, so we moved him to another car,” Rios Knight explained. He is one of the most mysterious of us, but he is gentle with his female cousins. He is Erin's younger brother and the family's second child.

“I can’t believe he can do this to the chairperson! Is there something we did wrong? To avenge us?” asked Lux. She is a beautiful and strong woman. She is the daughter of Aunt Amelia Knight.

I took a deep breath, rubbed Lux's hand, and

    SCARLETT’s POVWhat is he doing here?“Let’s talk,” Dominic suggested. He pulled me before I could complain, which startled me.“Let go! Let me go!” I yelled, annoyed, as he drew me in, and my eyes widened as I noticed we’d entered my room.When he pushed me against the door, f-ck, I closed my eyes. “What’s the problem—” I was taken aback when he brought his face closer to mine, and I kept my mouth shut.I closed my eyes because I thought he was going to kiss me, but when I heard a thud on my side… I opened my eyes to see that he was holding back his anger and his fist was at the door. As Dominic bowed, I looked at him.“Why?” he asked. I was taken aback and didn’t know how to react.I don’t want him to hear my heartbeat because I don’t want him to know he’s still in my heart after five years. Not only that, but I can’t get him out of my head, maybe because of my children.“Why, why did you leave me?” he asked. I bit my lower lip and turned away from him. “Could you please answer me?”

    THIRD POVDominic sighed as he left Scarlett’s room. He would explain everything to Scarlett if he could. But not yet because he must first protect his family.Dominic was taken aback when he noticed Sophia waiting for him. He ignored her, but she didn’t stop bothering him.“What are you doing over there?” asked Sophia. He would rather not look at the woman.“It’s none of your business,” said Dominic as he walked down the stairs, but Sophia followed him. He was irritated because the woman was following him. She always impedes his every move.“It is! I am your fiance” Sophia exclaimed, still following Dominic.Dominic exhaled and looked at Sophia. “Keep in mind, you’re just my fiance,” he said.Dominic went outside the knights’ mansion to his parents’ house, since he was sad when he got home to his house because his wife was not with him. And he might recall their memories.But Sophia stopped him as he was about to open his car door.“Are you leaving? I'm still here!” Sophia exclaimed.

And I know my children are aware of the situation.Am I selfish for what I did? I don’t want my children to suffer in the end. I’ll be the only one who suffers, but don’t let them.

    SCARLETT’s POV“W-what are you planning, huh?” I asked, punching him again, and he put me down, so I tried to escape, but he grabbed my hair.“Where are you going?” he asked, smirking. I glared at him and struggled again in his grip. “Are you going to report? To whom? To your weak cousins?” he laughed. I just stared at him, and he was about to touch my face, which I avoided.He's disgusting. I loathe him. I thought I could ask him to leave, but he doesn't know how to listen.“What do you really need? Why do you need to involve our chairman?” I asked, but I stopped when I remembered something, so I turned to face him. “He's not your target! It's me!” I said, grabbing his arm and throwing him to the ground.And I adjusted my clothes and combed my hair before returning my gaze to Gino. “Oh, I’m right, aren't I? The men won’t chase me if the chairman is the target.” I said, and grabbing his collar. “Why, huh? Why am I your target? How did you know I’m back?!?” I yelled, tightening my grip

    SCARLETT's POVWhen we got back to the mansion, I couldn’t get what had happened out of my head, and I’m still confused about who was planning to kill me, and the chairperson needs to be involved here.I just sighed and unbuckled my seatbelt because I needed to rest and see my kids.“Ven, are you sure you’re okay?” Hill asked, and I nodded. He stepped out of the car and opened the door for me. Before I got out of the car, I grabbed my bag.“Get some rest, Ven,” said Hill as he helped me in walking towards the mansion. “I’m going to see them because I would rather not be late for the party,” said Hill. I just shook my head because our cousins weren’t here, and I don’t know where they took Gino.Dominic never showed up again after what happened, and I believe he was still angry.When we walked through the door, Lux and Ara were already waiting for us. I looked at Hill, who just shrugged.“Scarlett, what happened to your face?!” asked Ara in surprise when she noticed the bruises on my f

    When I woke up, I was dumb because I had fallen asleep crying. I’m still processing what happened last night, so I just hugged myself because I didn’t know what else to do. I’m even more annoyed with myself because I don’t know what happened to me last night, and apart from what Hill says about my eyes being empty. Especially Young’s claims he was just paid to kill me. I wonder if I had a powerful enemy before, and they’re just turning on me now that they’ve heard I’m back in the palace, or was it because of our missions at the time. F-ck.I rubbed my face and stood up to get dressed because I don’t feel like going to work right now and would rather rest. When I remembered what had happened to my parents and Sophia, I froze once more, and I’ve noticed mom avoiding dad because they’re arguing.Is this related to what happened to me, and that I left, telling no one? I sat on the bed, staring at the photo of the four of us. I took it, caressed it, and smirked when I noticed we look li

    SCARLETT’s POV“Let's go, Scarlett.”Even though my heart was racing, I just nodded to mom, and we left my room, even though I wanted to retreat and hide in my room.Is it still okay for me to listen to whatever the chairman says?“Maybe you’re going to replace the chairman,” said Claire, as if mom had heard, and I noticed she averted her gaze.I smirked at Claire, knowing that I’ll never be replacing our chairman. If that happens, I don’t deserve it because I broke the law, and it should punish.When we arrived at Grandpa’s office, it surprised me that my family was complete, and even more surprised that Dominic was here with his parents.Claire and I bowed to each of them, as well as to the chairperson. I averted my gaze as Sophia smirked. I’m nervous about what is going to happen today.Furthermore, I sighed and went up to kiss my aunts and uncles. They only smiled at me, so I went over to Erin’s side, and Claire sat beside me.“Isn’t my princess going to greet me?” I came to a halt

    ERIN KNIGHT’s POV“Brother Erin! Tell me what’s going on!” said Lux. I messed up my hair in irritation because they were trying to take advantage of what was going on.It disappointed many of us with Grandpa after our last meeting. I’m not certain why this is happening, as if there's something wrong.“I don’t know either,” I replied, sighing. “We were all surprised by what Grandpa said.” I shook my head and crossing my arms.I had just come to a halt when Lux stopped abruptly in front of me, so I looked up at her. “Why are you staring at me like that?” I asked. She only raised her eyebrow at me.“Is that what I’m talking about? No, it’s not! I don’t care what grandpa says because it’s all nonsense!” she yelled. I winced and scratched my head because I assumed she was referring to that. “Tell the truth!”I turned away from them because I couldn’t say it because only Scarlett could. I would rather not be the one to lead her because everything is already so complicated.He gives the thro

    12 years later...SCARLETT’s POV“Mom, we’ve arrived!”“OMG! I can’t wait to go shopping!”“Are you going shopping again?”“KJ!”Because I could hear Carrie, and Tara’s voices, I removed my sleeping mask. We left the country a long time ago and are now returning. Because Claire is pregnant with her third child and wants me to be her youngest child’s godmother. Even though she was old, she still had a child.I assumed Erin was the one she was going to marry because my cousin and Claire had an affair as well, but their relationship didn’t work out, so it was best for them to just split up. Erin is glad that Ander is now with him. Gosh, Erin and Rios are the same. Poor uncle Eros, no one will even extend his race.“Mom.”In shock, I jumped and hit Agustin. I’m also confused why he’s taller than his father. He is obviously not 18 years old.“Are you all right?”I nodded and gripped his arm. He also did not inherit his father’s mischievousness, as it appears, he inherited it from brother C

    While Scarlett continues to search for Ferdinand.“Ferdinand!” she yelled, shooting at those on display throughout the quarters. “You asshole! Get out! Face me!” she yelled as she blew up the build with the last of the bombs.Scarlett came to a halt when she heard a helicopter. Her eyes widened, and she peered out the window, but it surprised her when she saw Ferdinand dragging the chairman Knight.“Grandpa…” Scarlett whispered as she walked up to the window, grabbed the leash’s hook, and climbed out. “You can’t run away, Ferdinand!” she exclaimed as she ran towards her last opponent. She took a stone and threw it at Ferdinand’s head.“Are you going to run away?!? Aren’t you tired of running away over and over?!?” Scarlett yelled, grabbing her gun from her boots.“I will not let you live! I will send Verno to hell!” Ferdinand yelled, pointing his gun at Verno.Scarlett came to a halt as she noticed chairman Knight struggling to breathe. She tightened her fist, prepared her gun, and sh

    THIRD POVWhile the other Knights are fighting against Ferdinand’s vigorous men. A group of choppers stopped them, all of which carried their family's logo.“Rios!”“What are you doing here, Dad?”“I don’t want to be late for the party! I’m not Eronus with arthritis!”Rios shook his head because he knew their father was a nasty.“Dad has arthritis?” asked Eron, his eyes widening. Aaron smacked him.“You’re crazy! Dad’s just busy at work!” Aaron exclaimed. “Because you’re entrusting your job to our father!”Rios shook his head as his cousins and their parents gave him a headache.“Dad!”Rios winced as his younger sister hugged their father. He sighed and told his companions that now was not the time for them to reunite.“There are more foes, idiot!” he exclaimed.Eros grabbed his chest and Alessandro’s shirt.“Al, what’s the matter with Rios? Carlito is his father!”“F–ck off! Don’t pull on my shirts.”Rios screamed rudely and left his cousins and their parents because it would only ge

    SCARLETT’s POVI took a deep breath and began organizing the items we were going to bring. I'm eager to get to Ferdinand’s quarters and anxious about my grandfather, mother, and children.So, I grabbed the necklace Carrie had given me and closed my eyes, not knowing what to do first. My plans are no longer being carried out. Damn. I clenched my fists and reloaded my weapons because I wanted to confront Ferdinand myself.I only came to a halt when I heard shouting.“Shouldn’t we tell Scarlett the truth right now? Do we need to wait for her to remember?”I frowned and moved closer to the door to look at them. I noticed they were arguing.“Ara…”“You don’t get it; tell her the truth! Scarlett is in too much pain!”“Ara is right; I was mistaken in blaming everything on Scarlett because I forgot that our family and Ferdinand had a long history of conflict.”Because of what I heard, my eyes widened, and I covered my mouth. What does Dianne mean? Ferdinand and our family have been in conflic

    THIRD POV“How did the chairman go missing? They said he’d be here, so how did he go missing?!”“I don’t know,” Lux shrugged, “but mom told me the chairman didn’t get on the chopper that was prepared for him.”Scarlett frowned at Lux, knowing she had a hint, but not wanting to act either.“Scarlett is right! This is a trap!” Ara yelled.They all looked at Scarlett, confused, because she had said that it would set a trap for their grandfather.She came to a halt and frowned at her cousins.“Don’t tell me you had doubts about me?” she asked. Except for Rianne, her cousins all turned away.“Maybe? Everything is happening because of you,” said Rianne, glaring at Scarlett.It took a back, Scarlett and looked at her cousin. Rios scolded the younger sister.“Rianne, shut up.”Rianne shook her head and approached Scarlett, pointing to her. “Don’t protect her! Don’t defend her! We all know why this is happening in our family because of her!” she yelled as Rios pulled her away, but she struggle

    I was about to return to our hotel room when my name was called.“Scarlett.”When I saw him, I turned and frowned. “You said we’d just meet at the fiesta,” I said. He shook his head and grins.“Damn that bitch! She follows me everywhere!”I came to a halt because it seems he was bringing up Sophia. That's why, when I saw Jaguar, he was with someone else, just so Sophia wouldn’t think anything was mistaken. She’s annoying!I just sighed and shook my head. “So, what do you need from me?” I asked. He turned around and motioned for me to follow him into a hotel room.I raised an eyebrow, but I just followed him in case he had a new lead to help Erin escape.I examined the room because it resembled the one he had booked. “Hmm…” I sat on the bed, staring at him.“Do you have a new lead to help my cousin in escaping?” I asked. He sat on the sofa as raising his hand.“Hmm… before that, I know you heard everything from Andre.”I came to a halt and nodded to him. Is there anything else I need t

    SCARLETT’s POVI woke up because of the sunlight after being in my room for several days. I’m not sure what I’m afraid of. To find out the truth, or where will my anger lead me? I shook my head, not sure.Perhaps I’m just worried about Erin, as well as the fight between Rios and me. He makes some sense. I just sent too much in the gust of my emotions, and perhaps out of frustration, I aimed my anger at him.And could my dreams be linked to what happened then, besides the fact that Grandma was killed? Is that why Mom did everything, just to make sure I didn’t remember? But if I don’t remember everything, I won’t know who killed Grandma or what happened.When my phone rang, I came to a halt and stretched before reaching for my phone to answer who was calling.“Who is this?” I asked on the other line, as I was not in the mood. I recognized the laugh. I frowned and looked at the number, but I didn’t save it.“What do you need, and why did you call right now?”He laughed as if he were happ

    SCARLETT’s POVI’m uncertain if anything will change or if I will change.They have been very protective of me since I was a child. Particularly, my mother. They don’t let me play with other kids, and they also don’t let me be alone in the mansion.It started when I woke in the hospital. I felt nothing else, and I thought it was stupid that my family was always worried about me.I couldn’t talk for a few days, and I saw my cousins practicing for something I don’t understand. They invited me several times, but I declined each time. All I know is that I need to be alone. I don’t want to talk to anyone, and I don’t want to hear anything.They stated I had changed. I am no longer Scarlett, the cheerful and dumb child who didn't understand what they were up to.I also feel like I forgot something, and I’d like to know why I was in the hospital and what I was doing there. So, I tried to talk to mom about it, but she always avoids the topic, as if she’s hiding something.That situation playe

    Ander grabbed her as she struggled to get close to Erin. “Let me go! Who are you?!?” yelled Scarlett, but Ander was still attempting to pull her away.“I’m going to get Erin back! Let me go!” she screamed, but Ander wouldn’t let her go.They also felt that someone was following them, so Ander quickly covered Scarlett’s mouth. “If you don’t want them to catch you, stay quiet,” Ander whispered. Scarlett remained silent because her protest was pointless because they were already far away.When they couldn’t hear anyone else, Ander dragged Scarlett out of the building. They saw Jaguar waiting for them.“Scarlett.”Something took a back jaguar when he saw Scarlett, who was silent along with Ander.“Master, I’ll help,” Ander said to Jaguar as he assisted Scarlett in getting into his car. “I’ll look after Erin,” he added. Jaguar raised his eyebrows and smirked.“Are you still madly in love with him?”Ander turned away from Jaguar. “Maybe. Go, leave this building.”Jaguar tapped Ander on the
