Lost And Found Hearts Comfort
Chapter Eighty SixAfer the chaos in that courtroom, quietness is just spooky. Between the muffled sobs of Marie, who sat on the living room couch clutching a tissue already damp from tears, even the soft hum of the air conditioning seemed to fill the gaps. Her shoulders shake as her face buries into her hands, unable to hide the load of the emotions going through her.Simeon stands a few feet away, fidgeting with his hands and hanging his head low. He has never been good with the sight of his mom crying. "Mom." he starts in a low, tender voice, hoarse under the pounding in his heart from guilt and uncertainty.At first, Marie says nothing. Her sobs worsen, the sound tearing through the silence like shards of glass. Finally, she raises her head and her eyes are red and swollen. "Simeon… why? Why did you do it? Why did you record your father and give it to Nolan? Do you even understand what you've done?Simeon winces at her tone, and his heart shrinks. "I-I had to, Mom," he stammers. "
Lost And Found Hearts A Love Unveiled
Chapter Eighty Seven: A Love UnveiledThe late afternoon sun filters through the trees, casting a gold streak on Nolan's car as it heads toward Elena's small townhouse. The air reeks of autumn, with the slight perfume of roses filtering from the bouquet of crimson flowers sitting on the front passenger seat; next to it, a neatly wrapped box lies wrapped with silk ribbon the color of midnight. Inside was a dainty bracelet he had picked out earlier-a piece of jewelry reminding him of Elena's elegance and strength.He cannot help the smile that tugs at his lips as he thinks about how she will react. The surprise in her wide eyes, the blush that climbs up her cheeks when he does something completely unexpected-it's these moments that have gotten him through the roughest times. Today is the day: he has kept his feelings bottled up for too long, and he's finally ready to let them spill.He parks in front of her townhouse, steps out, smoothes his jacket, and then reaches for the gifts. His h
Lost And Found Hearts Fragments Of Us
Chapter Eighty EightSimeon stands outside Nolan's house, his palms clammy despite the cool evening air. The words he has repeated over and over in his head are slipping away, replaced with doubt. He knows what he is about to ask of him is unreasonable, perhaps impossible. Yet he can't turn back now.Taking a shaky breath, he rings the doorbell. The sound echoes through the stillness, and after what feels like decades of waiting, Nolan opens the door, his face shifting from surprise to warmth."Simeon," Nolan says, stepping aside. "What a nice surprise. Come in."Simeon pauses, his feet glued to the porch for a second, before he steps inside. The cozy warmth of Nolan's living room wraps him up at once, mingled with a sweet scent of cinnamon. Elena is there, too, seated on the couch with a book across her lap. Her face lights up with a smile."Simeon," she says, her voice soft and welcoming. "It's good to see you."He nods awkwardly-he feels like an intruder. "Good evening, Elena.""Si
Lost And Found Hearts Unshakable Resolve
Chapter : Eighty Nine"Unshakable Resolve"Sitting in the quiet of the living room, Nolan tries to sort through his thoughts. The weight of the discussion he had with Simeon hangs heavy on his mind. He has sat staring at one spot for hours now, but his mind is miles away, stuck in a maelstrom of old wounds that just would not heal.A psychic scream of Simeon's words echoes within his mind: "You don't even want to consider it? Just one chance for Marie? For closure?It's hard for Nolan to see this as Simeon trying to help him; after all, Marie betrayed him once-not only opting to be with Leo when she could have been with him but then seeking Leo out again when she needed Nolan. Why would he go back to that? It just makes no sense.It's all suddenly such a weight of the past, one that Nolan is done toting. He doesn't owe Marie anything-least of all the chance to ask for forgiveness or to explain herself. She made her choices, and he made his. His life has moved on. His future is differe
Lost And Found Hearts Hope
Chapter Ninety : HopeMarie sits on the edge of the worn couch, her hands shaking slightly as she folds and unfolds a piece of paper. Across from her, Simeon leans against the wall, his arms crossed tightly over his chest. There is almost an oppressive silence between them, with only the ticking of the old clock on the wall breaking the quiet."You went to him," Marie says finally, her voice thin and brittle, like ice that is about to crack.Simeon nods but does not look up. "I did."Marie takes a shuddering breath. "And? What did he say?"He tightens his jaw. "He doesn't want to see you, Mum. He said. he's not ready to face you."The words hit Marie like a blow to the chest. Her hands stop moving and fall with the paper in her lap, now crumpled. She stares down at it, blinking rapidly as the tears threaten to fall. "I see," she whispers."I'm sorry," Simeon says, his voice heavy with guilt. "I tried, Mum. I really did".Marie shakes her head. "It's not your fault. I should've known i
Lost And Found Hearts Old Wounds Resurface
Chapter Ninety-One: Old Wounds ResurfaceMarie stands outside Nolan's house, her fingers trembling as she presses the doorbell. It's been years since she's last seen him in person, and now she's here, with nothing but desperation to guide her. She smooths down her dress, trying to steady her nerves. She's not ready for this. She's not sure she'll ever be ready, but she has no choice.The door opens, and Marie freezes. It's not Nolan.It's Elena.For a moment neither woman says a word. Marie's face hardens, and a bitter smile twists her lips. "Well, isn't this just perfect," she says, the sarcasm dripping from her voice like honey.Elena's eyes widen, and then something unreadable flickers across her face-surprise followed by calm, collected mask. "Marie," she says so simply, as if the sight of her doesn't stir up old memories she's tried to bury.Marie crosses her arms, forcing herself to stand taller. "I didn't expect you to be here. Or is that your thing? Always being where you're n
Lost And Found Hearts Past And Presence
Chapter Ninety-One: "Torn Between the Past and PresentHe leaned back in his chair, sitting alone in his study, the faint light of the desk lamp casting long shadows across the room. The confrontation with Marie earlier in the day replayed in his mind-every word another dagger twisting deeper. The weight of her voice, the crack in her resolve when she begged for his understanding, still lingered in his mind like some unshakable ghost.Five years: five long, long years they shared together, once a time that seemed to be the basis of his future. But then it fell, torn down by the stab of betrayal. Twice, she failed him, and each time it felt as if someone plunged a knife into his soul.At this, Nolan runs a hand through his hair; frustration boils inside him. He knows what logic dictates: she's the past. Marie made her choices, and he made his. When she wasn't there for him, Elena stepped in. Elena had been the one to stand by him at his very lowest, when he thought himself empty and wi
Lost And Found Hearts Loyality
Chapter: Nolan Stays by Simeon's SideThe pale-faced Marie paces around the living room, her eyes on Simeon. He lay on the sofa, hardly conscious, with beads of sweat on his forehead. His wheezing is shallow and faint, and every wheeze refreshes a new panic wave in her mind.Simeon, please, stay awake," she begs, moving the cool cloth once more over his burning forehead. Her voice breaks, and for a moment, her emotions betray her. She clenches her jaw and tries not to fall apart, but seeing him like this breaks her.Her mind is racing with what to do next. She's not prepared for this-she's never been prepared for this. Simeon has always been the strong one, the steady rock in a world full of chaos. Seeing him like this, so vulnerable, terrifies her.Trembling, she picks up her phone and dials Nolan's number. It rings twice before he answers.Nolan," she begins, her voice strained with desperation. "Simeon is sick. I don't know what to do. Hè's burning up, and he can barely breathe. Pl

Lost And Found Hearts Strength In Unity
Chapter One Hundred One : Strength in UnityThe early evening light filters through the living room windows as Nolan sets down his coffee mug on the kitchen counter. He’s restless, his mind replaying Leo’s threats from earlier. Elena moves around the kitchen with purpose, her hands busy slicing vegetables for dinner."You're still pacing," Elena remarks without looking up, her voice calm but firm. "It won't change anything, you know."Nolan stops mid-step and leans against the counter. "How can you be so calm, Elena? The man practically declared war in my own house. And the way he looked at you—"Elena lifts an eyebrow, smirking slightly. "What, you're scared of Leo now? I thought you were braver than that."Brave? It's not about bravery. You don't know what he's capable of. He's not just some angry ex-con. Leo is-He's dangerous," Nolan says, running a hand through his hair.Elena chuckles softly, shaking her head as she stirs a pot on the stove. "Dangerous or not, we're not running.
Lost And Found Hearts A Sudden Visit
Chapter One Hundred: A Sudden VisitThe smell of sautéed onions and spices fills the small kitchen as Elena hums softly to herself. She efficiently navigates between the stove and the countertop, her hands deftly chopping vegetables as she occasionally follows along on the recipe pulled up on her cell phone. Sun pours through the window into the tidy space.Nolan leans lazily against the doorframe, arms crossed and his lips curled up in a small smile. He regards her with a quiet sort of admiration, though the tension in his shoulders betrays his thoughts."You know," he says at last, coming into the kitchen, "you really don't have to do all this. We could have just ordered something."Elena looks up briefly, her eyes sparkling with mirth. "And miss the chance to show off my cooking skills? Not a chance. Besides, you need a proper meal. Stress eating takeout isn't doing you any good."Nolan chuckles, moving closer. "Stress eating, huh? You make it sound like I'm falling apart."Elena r
Lost And Found Hearts United
Chapter Ninety Nine: UnitedThe soft hum of the morning sunlight pours into the kitchen, washing over the countertops and making everything moe bright. Elena stands at the stove, stirring a pot of oatmeal with a steady practiced motion. The kitchen is warm, comforting-familiar, normal in the chaos still hanging outside.The creaking of footsteps breaks the silence, and Elena doesn't need to lift her head to know who is behind her. Even before he says a word, the room fills with his presence- thick with tension now days over. She hears him stop right in the entrance, taking in the view of her; his gaze lingers as if she were the only thing keeping him bound to this earth."Elena," he begins, and the strained sound is almost weary. She doesn't turn around immediately, knowing he needs to say whatever is on his mind. She keeps her attention on the oatmeal, though she feels the heavy weight of his eyes on her."Something's wrong, isn't it?" she says calmly, while the undertone in her voi
Lost And Found Hearts A Fragile Plan
Chapter Ninety Eight: A Fragile PlanThe room in the hospital is silent, except for the soft humming of machines that monitor Simeon's recovery. Morning light cascades through the blinds, giving the little room a pale glow. Marie sits by the window, observing her son leaning against his pillows. Simeon looks stronger now, his cheeks no longer as pale as they were when they first came in.“You’re getting better,” Marie says with a small smile. Her voice is warm, but there’s a tension behind it that Simeon doesn’t miss.“Yeah,” he replies, his tone flat. “I guess.”Marie hesitates, her hands fidgeting with the hem of her cardigan. She’s been thinking about this conversation all night, turning it over and over in her mind. She knows it’s risky, but she can’t shake the idea. Finally, she speaks."Simeon," she begins, her voice low. "I've been thinking. Perhaps we ought to get in touch with your father."Simeon freezes, his eyes narrowing as he stares at her. "What?"Hear me out," Marie sa
Lost And Found Hearts Leo
Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Predator ReturnsThe limousine rolls to a stop outside the towering iron gates of Leo Ralston's estate. The driver is out in a flash, briskly efficient as he opens the door. Leo steps onto the gravel driveway, commanding and cold. The air is crisp, biting against the fine fabric of his tailored suit, but Leo doesn't flinch.The gates groan to a creaky open, revealing the serpentine drive up to his mansion. In the distance, the imposing structure looms like a shadow against the fading light of dusk. This was always the house that represented his power, his untouchable status. Tonight, however, there seemed to be something off about it-something hollow in the silence that surrounded it.Leo's eyes go sharp as he nears the great front doors. The carving, once a pride, now feels almost mocking. He shoves the heavy doors open; the groan of it resounds through the halls that are now empty.A chill greets him from the foyer, one that has nothing to do with the eveni

His mind is consumed by the news of Leo Ralston's release. Each step to his car feels so heavy, his thoughts gray with worry.Leo. Free.He knows what it means, and a chill runs down his spine. It's not just about him; it's about Marie and Simeon. It's about all the lives Leo could destroy again.The drive home is silent and unusually so. Even the sound of the engine feels muffled under the weight of his thoughts. He clutches the steering wheel a little tighter than usual, his knuckles whitening.

Lost And Found Hearts Freedom
Chapter Ninety Five: FreedomThe atmosphere of the morning was thick with celebration as the people prepared to celebrate National Unity Day. The streets around the nation were draped with flags, and every available square space was packed with citizens awaiting parades and merrymaking. But behind the scenes, the government is planning a far less publicized but equally important move-a gesture of goodwill that reverberated through every corner of society.Senior officials filled the seats of the long table inside the presidential mansion. At the head of the table, the president ran his eyes over the document before him. On it was a list of prisoners eligible for early release, an early but symbolic act of compassion pertaining to the national holiday.This will send a great message," the Minister of Justice says, his voice measured. "The country requires unity, and giving amnesty to some of the prisoners will show our resolve for second chances."The president nods but does not say a
Lost And Found Hearts Nolan's Promise
Chapter: Nolan's PromiseNolan sits beside Simeon's bed, his elbows to his knees, his hands clasped together in tight fists. The soft beeping of the monitor is a reassuring cadence, a steady heartbeat that tells him Simeon lives, that he still fights. Morning light seeps through the blinds, but the exhaustion in his body will not abate. His vow to Simeon, "I won't let you down, not this time," is the litany in his brain.The door creaks open, and Marie steps in hesitantly, carrying two cups of coffee. Her face looks tired, her eyes heavy from a sleepless night. She stops near the doorway, watching Nolan for a moment before speaking.“You should rest,” she says softly, setting one cup on the small table beside him.“I’m fine,” Nolan replies, his tone curt, though he doesn’t look at her.Marie pulls a chair closer and sits down, wrapping her hands around her cup for warmth. For a while, neither of them speaks, the silence stretching out uncomfortably. Then, she breaks it.“You’re still
