"If I were you, I wouldn't leave. You'll only make our job more difficult if you do..." the blonde woman from earlier spoke up.She was leaning against one of the walls outside. I rolled my eyes at the fact that she was still here, and Lucius? Well, he was long gone."Is that a threat? If it is, just say it. I'm tired of this spy crap," I snapped.She laughed—a lot."Will you let me in? I can explain your actual position in this operation more clearly, Marianne," she offered.It was an invitation I accepted even though I couldn't stand this woman. My distaste wasn't helped by the obvious bond she shared with the man who, for now, was still my husband.-The silence between us in the room was deafening. She had taken a chair to sit across from me, though as far from the bed as possible. I remained seated, waiting for her to speak.We hadn't talked much before, yet I felt like we hated each other already. I had an idea why, though it was hard to say it out loud without sounding l

If there was anything good about my current imprisonment, it was the fact that they served delicious food. I was enjoying a lovely lunch—lamb with mashed potatoes. It had been over 24 hours since I'd arrived in this room. How did I know? A nurse had taken pity on me and brought a clock for the nightstand.So, I was cutting into the meat with my utensils, exercising the patience I'd decided to adopt after my negotiation with Julia. It was only a matter of time before my charming husband showed up.As expected, I saw the door open, revealing a large bouquet of white roses. And carrying them was none other than Lucius, with a bag slung over his arm and a sheepish smile on his face."Are you feeling better?" he asked.I shot him a deadly look and continued eating. I wasn't about to let him ruin my meal. He sighed."Seeing you eat with that appetite is a good sign for your health. Not so much the way you're looking at me…""Looking at you how? With the well-deserved disdain for leavin

As Lucius's team had predicted, Amelia was a woman who thrived on appearances and wouldn't allow rumors to spread. What rumors? Well, the argument between Serge and Dominic had spread like wildfire through Fairmount Corporation, and many were blaming Serge for Dominic's supposed suicide. This had forced my father to make an appearance at the office. I knew this because I had returned to my regular duties at the company.This was, of course, against Lucius's wishes, but not against the broader instructions given to me by him, Julia, and Mohamed—yes, he was real and had been watching me all along.When I entered the main dining room, Amelia greeted me with her usual fake smile. Amanda sat next to her, looking exhausted, while Andrew wore a clear expression of disdain at my arrival."Marianne, I'm so glad you could take a few minutes out of your busy schedule to join us," Amelia said in her sugar-coated tone."I couldn't turn down a meal with my father. These past few days have been e

"Let's go down to eat," Serge said, leaving the room.I wanted to follow him, but of course, Andrew had to stop me. He grabbed my arm as he threatened me with that ugly scowl of his."What were you trying to do with your father?"I yanked my arm free. His touch made my skin crawl."Since when do I owe you explanations about what I talk to my father about?" I shot back."Since you married the enemy and sold yourself to him. What business do you have with them, huh?""Them? Who are you even talking about?""Don't play innocent. Did you buy shares in SMB? Did you find out how the business works and now you want to join or invest in it?" he accused, his voice growing harsher. "I won't let you, Marianne. Everything you touch, you ruin.""Oh, that's rich coming from you. Why would I want shares in SMB? What's your obsession with that company, anyway? It's as unhealthy as you are," I mocked."Don't pretend you don't know. You've been calculating from the very start."I was about to

Once chaos began, there would be no stopping it. That was the thought running through my head as everything unfolded around me. When the news of the audit hit, Serge, Andrew, and even Amelia rushed to their cars, heading straight for Fairmount Corporation. Caught up in the whirlwind, I couldn't do anything but follow them in my own vehicle to the office.None of the three looked calm, not even close. In fact, I had to hurry to catch the elevator with them. Everything was happening so quickly, it felt like someone had pressed fast forward on my life."I don't want anyone saying more than what's asked," Amelia ordered. "Yes and no should be your only answers.""Don't give me orders, Amelia. I know what I'm doing. It's you two who are clueless. Look at your husband!" Andrew snapped back.He was referring to Serge, who still looked like a complete wreck, except now he was a wreck in panic mode. Amelia didn't take kindly to the contradiction and looked ready to lash out, but the elevato

"You talk like I haven't dedicated years of my life to Fairmount Corporation," I replied, barely containing my frustration."If you cared as much as you claimed, you would have done more to protect it. Instead, you dragged it down by severing ties with SMB. That contract could've given us more than you could ever imagine, you foolish girl!""More? More of what?" I pressed, determined to push her further."Do I really need to explain everything to you?" Amelia sneered, her voice dripping with contempt. "You meddled where you had no place, and now, look at us—vulnerable!""Vulnerable to whom? National security forces? The law? Isn't it only those with shady practices and outdated systems that have anything to fear from an audit? What exactly are we supposed to be afraid of?""The Kramers!" Amelia practically screamed, her voice shaking with rage. She looked at me like I was the biggest idiot she'd ever seen. "Don't you dare tell me you don't know who they are, because I can just pic

"They killed him? He didn't... He didn't commit suicide? You admit it?" I asked, my voice cracking under the weight of the revelation."It was a threat... those people, they're dangerous. I didn't... I never meant..." Serge stammered."And you didn't think, even for a second, that it could have been me they found dead? That I could've been the one if I had accepted your shares, Dad?" My heart shattered as the words left my mouth.Serge looked at me, a mixture of guilt and desperation in his eyes. I couldn't tell if I should pity him or despise him. His ambition and thirst for power had brought him here—dragging our entire family down with him. I could hardly stand to call him my father."I never thought they'd go that far... you have to understand, Marianne. Dominic didn't understand, but you will. In business, you do what you have to do. We have so many employees depending on us and so many futures at stake. How could I just stand by and let everything fall apart?""Oh, so now yo

I kept biting my thumb nail, pacing up and down the hallway of this clinic. Still, no one had given me any news about Serge's condition. After I had called for help, an ambulance rushed us here. And by "us", I meant that I wasn't alone. There was a police officer standing in the corner, keeping watch in case my father tried to escape.Regardless, I doubted he could escape in his current state. The doctors said he had had a hemorrhagic stroke, and they were doing everything they could. So yes, he was alive—but I had no idea what condition he would be in when, or if, he left this place."Hey, girl..." Jenna rushed toward me, pulling me into a tight hug, which I returned. "How's your dad? What have the doctors said? I came as fast as I could. The office is a disaster.""They're treating him. He had a stroke," I explained, utterly exhausted.Jenna gasped in shock and concern, rubbing my arms in a gesture of comfort."Poor man. Dominic's death and the company audit must've pushed him t

Sara Brown's P.O.V."Didn't we agree you wouldn't come, Mom?" Richard asked, his voice low and disappointed."Richard, you too?" Victoria exclaimed, her voice trembling with a mix of hurt and indignation."What else did you expect, Victoria?" Julian interjected, crossing his arms. "We practically had to beg Sara for permission just to see Matthew. Meanwhile, you've done nothing to make amends yet here you are, demanding things. That's not how this works.""Do you want me to apologize to Sara?" Victoria's voice cracked as she looked at me, her emotions on full display.I would never trust Victoria, and I certainly would never leave my son alone with her unsupervised. But in this moment, her vulnerability chipped away at some of my hardened resolve. Life had been so good lately, so full of joy and love, that my heart no longer had room for resentment."You don't need to apologize to me," I said calmly. "The people you owe an apology to are your sons."Victoria's eyes widened, her

Sara Brown's P.O.V.Six months later.Becoming a mother was one of those adventures I never knew I needed, but I'd never been more grateful for taking the leap—especially with Lawrence by my side. Now, here we were, standing in front of a flower-draped altar nestled in the woods of the Brown family estate.Getting married in this spot felt symbolic. It had been our sanctuary as kids, the place where we'd escaped from the grown-ups and shared secrets. It was fitting that my best friend, the boy who'd been by my side through thick and thin, was now becoming my husband.Behind us was a small gathering of family and close friends. The Browns—ever-expanding with a small army of kids—were all present, as were a handful of Lawrence's relatives, including his brothers, Richard and Julian. We'd kept the guest list to just sixty people, making this a more intimate celebration than anyone would've expected from a Brown-Lewis wedding.Still, it was perfect. Everyone we loved was here. And the

I looked at our baby's tiny face, and the urge to cry overwhelmed me again. He was absolutely perfect."Are you going to keep crying?" Sara teased with a mischievous grin. "If you don't stop, I won't give you another one."I wiped my tears immediately, not wanting to take any chances. She burst out laughing, her radiant energy filling the room."So," quickly shifting topics, she leaned forward slightly, "what are we naming him? We agreed we'd know when we saw him. I've got a name from the shortlist in mind. Do you?""I do," I replied, smiling."Okay, let's say it together," she suggested, and I nodded. "On three. One, two, three—""Matthew!" we both exclaimed in unison.We stared at each other before breaking into matching grins. Sara started clapping in excitement over our perfect sync. I laughed at her enthusiasm, but something on the hospital TV caught my attention—a news report about yesterday's gubernatorial election. Images of Isabelle, the winner, flashed across the scree

Lawrence Lewis's P.O.V.Three months later...Just when I thought I couldn't be any happier with Sara loving me, life proved me wrong. Every day felt like a new peak of joy. A few months ago, I believed I had reached the ultimate high when she accepted my proposal during our trip to Finland. I'd asked her under the northern lights in a private and intimate moment, just the two of us—just like our entire relationship had been.The fallout from canceling my engagement to Emma had been relatively manageable for me. There were no financial or legal repercussions, and I narrowly escaped the disgrace of almost becoming the son-in-law of a criminal like Mark. But to say I avoided all drama would be a lie. The rumors and gossip surrounding how Sara and I had gotten together were relentless.I was usually a calm man, but any criticism aimed at Sara, accusing her of "breaking up" my previous engagement, turned me into a beast. Sara would always tell me to ignore the noise, that only we knew

I stood there frozen, feeling every gaze lock onto me. It was as if time had stopped. No one spoke, no one moved—they just stared. Sweat started trickling down places I didn’t even know could sweat.“Hi… how’s everyone doing?” I asked, my voice hesitant.I braced myself for the shouting, the dramatic exclamations, the scolding even. Instead, the extroverted ones in the room simply smiled at me while the quieter ones went back to what they were doing, almost as if nothing had happened. The initial wave of attention just… evaporated.“As I was saying,” Uncle Lucius continued, picking up right where he’d left off, “if you don’t finish your vegetables, we’ll give them to the lion in the forest.”My jaw dropped. This table—the entire Brown family—was completely unfazed. Even Lawrence had that knowing smile on his face, almost as if he’d expected this exact reaction. Before I could recover, Aunt Lucia and Aunt Marianne came over and pulled me into tight hugs.“You look gorgeous, Sara. A

Richard's voice broke the silence as he gathered his courage. "We'd like to add Duke and Monarch for me, and the boat for Julian. With that, we'll be ready to sign the agreement."I rubbed my ears, almost certain I had misheard."The horses and the boat? That's all you want?" Lawrence asked, his tone tinged with disbelief."Yes," Julian confirmed, his voice hesitant. "We believe... they're of great sentimental value to us. And they were gifts. They just... weren't officially transferred to us."Lawrence's eyes darted between them as if trying to confirm whether these were the same brothers he'd been fighting with."That's it?" he repeated, his suspicion evident."That's it," Richard said, though his discomfort was plain to see."What are you two plotting?" Lawrence asked, narrowing his eyes.The twins exchanged confused glances."Nothing?" Julian said, his tone growing defensive. "What are you plotting? You told us you wouldn't give us anything but then sent this offer out of

I couldn't help but notice the sadness etched onto Lawrence's face. He'd always said he wouldn't give his brothers anything. Yet here he was, not only offering them a portion of the inheritance but also bracing himself for their inevitable demands and negotiating with them."Wouldn't it have been easier to just offer them exactly what you were willing to give from the start?" I asked as I leaned against his shoulder, wrapping my arms around him. His sadness was palpable, and it was breaking my heart. Just moments ago, he'd been so happy. "Just say 'Take it or leave it' and then forget about them."Lawrence sighed, his gaze distant. "I know them. And I know myself. I can't lay the blame for all my hardships on them like I do with Victoria. Despite what I said during the will reading, I know they deserve more than what my father left them.""You have a heart of gold, Ren," I murmured, kissing his cheek. "Don't let those brats melt it down, okay?"He chuckled softly, though his sadnes

I swayed my hips rhythmically against his body, the two of us joined in that intimate connection we'd rediscovered nearly every night since the chaos with a certain corrupt official had come to an end.As Lawrence neared his release, he called my name, his voice rough with passion. I teased him by sucking on the thumb he'd slipped into my mouth, which was all it took for him to shut his eyes tightly as the force of his climax overtook him. I followed him into that blissful release just a moment later.Utterly satisfied, I collapsed beside him on the bed, both of us completely naked, basking in the warmth of each other's bodies. My breathing was still ragged as Lawrence shifted closer, his hands roaming gently over my hair, my chest, and finally, my stomach. The way his hand lingered there told me exactly what he was about to ask—again."Are you sure you're comfortable with this?" he asked."No. It was terrible. I never want to have another orgasm for the rest of my life," I replied

"What's going on here?" I asked Sara suspiciously."Just go with the flow," she replied, opening my car door with a grin.I hesitated but decided to follow her advice—or at least try. After exchanging cheek kisses, I walked over to where Jason was waiting. I tucked the envelope with my test results into my pocket. As I reached him, he took my hand, and we started walking up a hill in the park."When did you ask Sara to bring me here?" I asked, curious."That's a secret," he said with a chuckle. "And since you two are such close friends now—""Close friends?" I interrupted, raising a brow. "You think we're really friends?""That's how it seems. You smile a lot when you're with her," he replied."Do I?" I considered it for a moment, warmth spreading through my chest. "Maybe we are."Jason smiled but kept silent. As we climbed one of the hills, I was taken aback by the breathtaking view of the city spread before us. But even more surprising was the blanket laid out on the ground,
