"What did I tell you, Remy? You made a mistake by running last night." Martinez took a step back, then leaned casually against the wall, his arms crossing over his chest. The faint smirk on his lips remained, barely hiding his amusement. The air in the room grew tense. The way Martinez stared at hi
"This is just perfect to keep his eyes on me alone," Cassia muttered, giving one last glance at her reflection before exiting the room with a small package in her hands—a birthday present for the man she had loved for five years and still loved deeply. It's was her boyfriend birthday. And guess who
"Sia," Darvan called as he slowly sat upright, his head pounding with a headache. He found himself sprawled on the sofa, still in yesterday’s clothes and without a blanket. His head spun and he felt the chill creeping in, like he might catch a cold. “Why didn’t she help me change?” he groaned, hold
As the place boomed with loud music and people danced to every beat, Darvan sat next to Stacy, who was busy talking without a care. She kept going on about Cassia and Darvan's breakup, and how she and Darvan had officially become a couple. This party wasn’t just to celebrate her return, but also to
Darvan scoffed, trying to push these feeling of jealousy he felt away as he approached Cassia. Every step he took towards her intensified his anger. She looked so happy with the guy she was talking to, and that made Darvan's blood boil. As he got to her, he squinted his eyes when he noticed her long
Cassia stood in her new sitting room, looking around as she tried to figure out where to start unpacking. The space felt fresh, filled with light pouring in from the large windows, and she couldn’t help but smile at the thought of a new life. Just as she was about to start unpacking, a soft knock
Aurora, still in shock, blinked and pushed Cassia's hands away from her body. Liam, who had been watching them, was interrupted by an important phone call. He glanced between the women and his phone, hesitating over which to prioritize. Ultimately, he decided to take the call, assuming they were mat
But what stung more now was the photo of Cassia and Liam that Aurora had sent him. The way Cassia smiled at Liam got under his skin, as if he had never meant anything to her. He didn't like it—she had gone too far this time. She had pushed him over the edge. He needed to find her, confront her, and

“My gut was right after all,” Martinez muttered to himself, smirking as he watched from his hiding spot. His plan had worked. Announcing that Cassia was fine had been a trap—one carefully set to lure out the mastermind behind the attack. And just as he had expected, they had taken the bait. In the
The morning sunlight streamed through the hospital windows as Cassia slowly woke up. She opened her eyes and saw Martinez still sitting beside her, focused on his phone with a serious expression—almost like he was angry at whatever he was reading. "You stayed," she murmured, her voice rough from s
As soon as Martinez finished speaking, the intruder let out a loud, mocking laugh that echoed through the empty warehouse. The sound grated on Martinez’s nerves, but he kept his expression calm. He wanted nothing more than to shut the laughter down with a punch, but he needed the intruder conscious.
The room was silent except for the muffled sounds of Cassia’s struggles. She wanted to scream but no word came out. Her hands clawed at the pillow pressed firmly over her face, her legs kicking weakly against the hospital bed. Her lungs burned, screaming for air, but the weight on the pillow didn’
Outside, Darvan started walking away when he noticed Cassia was awake. He had come to see her, yet fear kept him from stepping inside. Why did he feel like an intruder? He didn’t know. Without another glance, he hurried out of the hospital and made his way to his car. Sliding into the driver’s seat
Lucas inhaled deeply, shutting his eyes for a moment before opening them again. Was Martinez threatening him? He tilted his head slightly, letting out a humorless chuckle. Slowly, he turned his gaze back to Cassia. "Oh? And here I thought you’d be grateful I saved her life," he smirked. But beneath
"Oh, my God, Cassia! You scared the hell out of me,"Liam said softly, his voice hoarse. Cassia tried to speak, but her throat felt dry. Liam quickly poured her a glass of water and helped her take a sip. "Where is everyone? What exactly happened?" she managed to ask, her voice weak. "A truck h
Martinez leaned closer to Lucas, a dangerous smirk spreading across his face. "Like I said—and will keep saying—pray nothing happens to her. Because this time, it won’t be jail, Lucas. It’ll be something far more cruel...so cruel that you’ll curse the Whitehead family, your entire generation, for no
