She quickly submitted her application, her fingers trembling with excitement. She didn’t tell Ryan, thinking it unnecessary until she knew if she got the job.

Weeks passed, and Iris waited anxiously for feedback. One morning, she received an email from Bain Fashion House. Her application was under review. She smiled, feeling a glimmer of hope.

Meanwhile, at the office, Ryan was busy sorting through files when his phone rang. It was Bella.

He picked up, slightly annoyed at the interruption.

"Ryan, you promised we'd have lunch," Bella reminded him, her tone light and cheerful.

"Did I?" Ryan asked, trying to recall the conversation.

"Yes, you did. Come on, you need a break. Meet me at the restaurant," Bella insisted.Ryan sighed.

"Alright, I’ll be there."He arrived at the five-star restaurant, its elegant decor and breathtaking view setting a perfect scene.

Bella was already seated, her eyes lighting up when she saw him.

"Ryan! It's so good to see you," she said, standing up to hug him.

Sit up so you can eat."Ryan's eyes narrowed. "What am I doing here, Bella?""Oh, come on, Ryan," Bella purred. "We had a wonderful night together. I didn't know you were this good in bed...

She just needed to be patient, and watch as things fall into place.*******************************Iris stood in the garden one serene morning, taking in the picturesque view. The vibrant trees and colorful flowers swayed gently in the breeze, creating a scene of perfect tranquility. Yet, her mind was far from peaceful. A lot had been happening in her life, and though it had only been six months into her contract marriage with Ryan, it felt like a century."I don't even know if I should be happy or sad anymore," she murmured to herself, lost in thought. The weight of her circumstances seemed heavier each day, and the boundaries between her feelings for Ryan and the obligations of their contract grew increasingly blurred.Her phone rang, pulling her back to reality..

    "Looks amazing. I'm sure I'll eat non-stop," Ryan said, chuckling."Stop messing around, Ryan," Iris said with a light laugh.Suddenly, Iris remembered something and quickly rushed up to her room after dishing out Ryan's food. She opened her drawer but couldn't find what she was looking for. She checked her wardrobe, flipping through her dresses and boxes, then checked the table in her room and the second drawer. Finally, she found it. But as she brought it out, she heard a scream from downstairs.Iris's heart leaped into her throat. She rushed downstairs, her mind racing. When she reached the dining room, she was met with a horrifying sight. Ryan was on the floor, blood trickling from his mouth. Iris screamed, her voice echoing through the mansion, as she rushed to him."Ryan! Ryan! No, no, no! Please wake up!" she cried, kneeling beside him. "You were fine just a moment ago. What happened to him?" she asked, her voice trembling with desperation. Sarah, the maid, was pacing aroun

    "Mrs. Iris, can you tell me about the events leading up to Mr. Ryan's collapse?" he asked, his tone professional but probing.Iris recounted the evening, her voice shaking as she described the dinner and her brief trip upstairs. "I was only gone for a few minutes," she said, her voice breaking. "When I came back, he was on the floor."Iris was thoroughly investigated, facing accusatory questions. "Why did you make the food?" Detective Harris asked, his tone sharp."I always cook for Ryan," Iris replied, her voice shaking. "There was nothing unusual about it.""But someone introduced poison into the meal," the detective pressed. "Are you saying you have no idea how it happened?""I swear, I don't know," Iris said, tears streaming down her face. "I would never harm Ryan.”Detective Harris nodded, jotting down notes. "Did you notice anything unusual about the food or drink?”"No, everything seemed normal," Iris replied, her mind racing. "Sarah, our maid, served the food. She was with u

    "What are you talking about, Ryan?" Iris asked, her voice trembling. "I was called…”"By your boyfriend?" Ryan cut in sharply. "You have no shame or respect for me or yourself. You tried to kill me so you could go be with your lover. All this time, you’ve been acting like a saint, but you’re more dangerous than the devil himself. How could I forget? You’re a whore—a filthy one at that.""Ryan, I..." Iris began, but Ryan’s fury silenced her."Just shut it and leave my room! I don’t want to see you anywhere near me," Ryan barked, his face contorted with anger.Iris’s head spun, tears welling up in her eyes and blurring her vision. She couldn’t believe what she was hearing."Calm down, honey," Bella said, her voice sickeningly sweet as she stroked Ryan’s hand. "Don’t be too harsh on her. You’re still recovering. You don’t want to hurt yourself."Ryan glared at Iris, his eyes cold and unforgiving. "Get out of my room now and stay out."Iris flinched at his words, the tears she had been h

    Months had passed since Parker waited in vain for Ryan to come to his rescue.

The prison walls around him felt like they were closing in, suffocating him with the weight of his past mistakes. Every day, he wondered if his son would ever come, but no sign of Ryan emerged. He had gambled on the wrong side of history, and now he was paying for it with every lonely second that ticked by.Meanwhile, Mrs. Rose Kendrick, once a woman of unmatched power and deceit, was locked away in her world of doom. She had seen the writing on the wall long before now. When the truth came to light, when all the lies she had crafted so carefully unraveled before her eyes, she knew no one was coming to save her. The empire she had tried to manipulate for herself and her lover Parker had crumbled. Her final days were filled with silence, the kind that came not from peace but

    Ryan paced the length of his father’s study, his mind racing with conflicting emotions. He held the hospital reports tightly in his hand, his knuckles white from the grip. The reports confirmed his worst fears—the man he had called his father for his entire life wasn’t his biological father at all. Dr. Parker was. The revelation had shaken him to the core, and he knew he couldn’t keep this secret any longer. He had to tell Mr. Kendrick.Taking a deep breath, he walked over to where Kendrick sat in his leather chair, his eyes already filled with concern. Kendrick had noticed Ryan’s turmoil the moment he entered the room, but he hadn’t pressed him to speak."Dad," Ryan began, his voice trembling slightly. He rarely ever called him anything but ‘Dad,’ but now, with this new information, it felt like a lie. Still, it was all he had ever known. "I received something today. It’s… complicated, and I don’t know how to explain it."Kendrick raised an eyebrow, worry etching deeper into his

    The atmosphere in the house was finally calm, or so it seemed. After everything they had been through—the betrayals, the conspiracies, and the almost impossible escape from danger—Iris, Kendrick, and Jessica were relieved to be back home. The past few days had been nothing short of a nightmare, but now, with Ryan by her side, Iris felt like she could finally breathe again.Ryan had transformed into the kind of husband Iris had always dreamed of. He was attentive, caring, and endlessly devoted, especially when it came to their newborn. Late-night feedings and diaper changes—Ryan was right there with her, helping in every way he could. The chaos and distrust that once clouded their relationship were gone, replaced by a bond forged through hardship and love.One afternoon, as Iris cradled their baby on the living room couch, Ryan returned from the front door, holding a small package. There was no return address, just his name scribbled hastily across the front. He furrowed his brow as

    The tension in the hospital room hung heavy as Iris took a deep breath and prepared to explain everything. The faces of those around her—Jessica, Ryan, Kendrick, and Ivy—were etched with a mixture of concern, curiosity, and shock. Ryan, especially, seemed anxious, as though every word Iris spoke would shift the very foundation of what he believed to be true.“I found out I was pregnant,” Iris began slowly, her voice steady but filled with emotion, “on the same day that Mrs. Rose asked to see me. She called me out of the blue and said she needed to talk. I thought it was something important about the family, but when I got there…” She paused, her gaze shifting to Ryan before continuing. “She told me to leave you, Ryan. She wanted me gone so you could be with Bella.”Ryan’s jaw clenched at the mention of his mother’s betrayal, but he remained silent, allowing Iris to continue.“I was devastated,” Iris admitted, her voice cracking slightly. “I didn’t know what to do, and on my way back t

    The tension in the room had begun to settle after the police escorted Mrs. Rose and Dr. Parker out in handcuffs. The silence that followed felt like the calm after a storm, but there was still an air of unease.Mr. Kendrick stood in the center of the room, his expression heavy with guilt and regret. He turned toward Jessica, who stood with her arms crossed, looking as though she wasn’t quite sure what to make of him yet. Ivy and Iris, standing side by side, had barely spoken a word since everything unfolded.Kendrick cleared his throat, his voice thick with emotion. “I’m sorry,” he began, his eyes filled with sincerity as he faced Jessica and the twins. “Jessica, Iris, Ivy… I know words aren’t enough to make up for the years I’ve spent apart from you all, the lies, and everything else that’s happened. But please believe me when I say that I’ve regretted every single moment I wasn’t with you.”Iris remained silent, her face pale from shock, while Ivy’s gaze flickered between Jessica a

    The room was suffocating. Ryan sat up straighter in his hospital bed, his eyes narrowing as Luca entered, his expression grim. The air felt thick with anticipation as everyone waited for the news. Luca cleared his throat and looked directly at Ryan. “The anonymous messenger? It was Sarah—your house help,” he said quietly. Ryan’s brows furrowed in confusion. “Sarah?” He glanced at Ivy, then back at Luca. “What do you mean? She’s just a housemaid. Why would she—" “She’s been traced and caught,” Luca interrupted his voice firm. “We got her while she was trying to flee the country. She’s been feeding information to your enemies, Ryan. She’s been working with Mrs. Rose.”The room went still. Ivy gasped, her hand flying to her mouth, and Kendrick’s face drained of color. Mrs. Rose stood frozen, her eyes wide in disbelief as all eyes turned toward her.“What… what are you saying?” Ryan’s voice was low, but it shook with barely restrained anger.“She confessed everything,” Luca continued, h

    The silence that followed Mr. Kendrick's confession was deafening. Everyone in the room seemed frozen, processing the weight of his words. Mrs. Rose’s face was a mixture of shock and rage, her hands trembling as she gripped the back of a chair for support. Ryan and Ivy exchanged uneasy glances, while Jessica stood still, her expression unreadable, though her eyes glistened with the pain of memories that had long since scarred her.Kendrick took a deep breath, his voice thick with regret as he continued. "I was in love with Jessica," he admitted, his eyes locked on the floor as if unable to meet anyone’s gaze. "We were both so young, and I couldn't resist her. But I was already married to Rose. There was no way I could marry Jessica. I was the heir to the Kendrick family fortune, and it would have been a scandal—a disgrace—to have an affair and a child out of wedlock."Rose scoffed, her voice laced with venom. "So instead, you chose to keep me in the dark and raise the child of your

    The tension in the room was so thick it felt as though it could suffocate them all. Mrs. Rose stood frozen, her heart hammering against her chest as her eyes darted from Jessica to Kendrick and then to her children. Her worst nightmare was unraveling before her eyes, and there was no escape. Kendrick, too, was motionless, his face a mixture of disbelief and confusion. His eyes met Jessica’s, and a flood of memories rushed back—memories he had buried for years. He tried to speak, but the words caught in his throat."Je… Jessica?" Kendrick’s voice was barely above a whisper, his shock palpable. Ryan, standing by his father’s bedside, turned to Kendrick, his brows furrowed in confusion. "Dad, do you know her?"Jessica stood tall, her eyes blazing with the fire of long-buried resentment. She ignored Ryan’s question and locked eyes with Mrs. Rose, whose face was now dripping with cold sweat. Rose’s hands trembled as she took a step backward, her composure slipping with every second."No…

    Mrs. Rose paced anxiously around the hospital room, her heels clicking against the cold tile floor. She glanced at her watch for the hundredth time, her impatience growing by the second. Where were Ivy and Ryan? What were they up to? Her thoughts were interrupted when she heard the door open. She turned swiftly, only to see Ryan step into the room, followed closely by Ivy. Relief washed over her for a split second, but it quickly faded as she saw the grim looks on their faces. Something was wrong.“Where have you two been?” Mrs. Rose demanded, crossing her arms over her chest. “I’ve been looking all over for you!”Ryan didn’t respond immediately. His face was hard, his jaw clenched. Ivy, too, seemed distant, her eyes fixed on the floor as if she couldn’t bear to meet her mother’s gaze.Before Mrs. Rose could demand answers, a weak cough sounded from the hospital bed. Her husband, Mr. Kendrick, had woken up. Slowly, he turned his head toward her, his eyes filled with anger and betray
