Without a word exchanged, Emily made a beeline for her room, her footsteps echoing down the hallway with a sense of finality. Steve watched her retreating figure, but didn’t say anything.Steve knew she might have been disturbed because of the drama which happened at the party, Jennie proposed Axel was something not easy for Emily to grasp.With a deep sigh, he lingered in the hallway for a moment, grappling with the myriad of emotions swirling within him. Steve eventually turned away, trudging wearily to his own room.Restless and concerned, Steve called Emily's name several times with no response. Hastily, he made his way to her room, his footsteps echoing in the silent hallway.To his surprise, Panic seized him, his heart racing as he considered the myriad of possibilities that raced through his mind. But before fear could fully take hold, a gut instinct led him to the kitc
Enjoy the reading ..*..*..*...*... Jennie paced back and forth in her room, her heart pounding with a mixture of anger and fear. The thought of losing Axel again sent shivers down her spine, igniting a primal fear within her. Her mind was clouded, thoughts racing and emotions overwhelming her. She needed to find something to calm herself down before she did something she'd regret. Jennie reached for the injection, her hands shook with desperation. The allure of the drug, promising an escape from her overwhelming emotions, was too strong to resist in her vulnerable state. With trembling fingers, she filled the syringe with cocaine, her heart racing with anticipation of the temporary relief it would bring. As the drug coursed through her veins, a wave of euphoria washed over Jennie, momentarily numbing the pain and fear that had been consuming her. For a fleeting moment, she felt a sense of calm wash over her, the chaos in her mind fading into the background. But as the initial rus

Axel's mood was far from somber; in fact, he was practically brimming with excitement. His lips curled into a mischievous grin as he responded, his tone filled with anticipation. "Why do you want to see Steve's red face? Ufff! I am so excited to see his reaction when Mr. Lee Jung-Gii announces me as the boss of the Rossi Enterprise... Oops! No, now it will be the Brown Enterprise." Axel felt confident and triumphant, his attitude showing that he had been planning this moment for years. He had carefully set things up to take control, working hard for the past two years to make it happen. First he has no interested in his company but seeing Emily happy with him, he changed his whole plan, now his was only one target that was Steve and he knew really well, if Steve hurt, the life of Emily will automatically going to be worse.

Enjoy the update ---------Getting off of his black expensive Rolls-Royce, Axel looked at the banner where 'The Rossi Enterprise' sparkled, he mentally calculate how it's look when the Rossi Enterprise changed into Brown Enterprise. Axel was scrolling his phone screen, and kept smiling as if he read some kind of joke. He was taking so time as much it can be after all why not now this company will be his, he will the boss of Rossi enterprise. Steve sat there, his impatience mounting with each passing minute; he couldn't shake the feeling of frustration boiling within him. Tapping his feet on the floor in a restless rhythm, he massaged his temple with one finger, trying to alleviate the tension building up in his head. "Why the hell is everyone making me wait today? First that bloody Axel, and now Emily has gone for more than 45 minutes," he muttered under his breath, his irritation evident in his voice. "Are they making plans behind my back? Together?" Steve's mind raced with possi
Time skips~The tension in the air was palpable as the doctor emerged from the emergency room, his presence drawing the attention of everyone in the vicinity. Liam, Steve, and Axel rose from their seats in unison,"Ho... How... is she..." The words tumbled from Steve’s lips in a rush.Dr. Lee Ik-Joon's words hung heavy in the air, his weary expression reflecting the gravity of the situation. As he removed his mask, a heavy sigh escaped his lips, his shoulders slumping with exhaustion."She had an immense hit on her head," he began, his voice tinged with solemnity. "We managed to control the bleeding, but she lost a significant amount of blood in the process."Dr. Lee continued, his tone somber yet resolute. "Right now, she is out of immediate danger," he explained, his words offering a glimmer of hope amidst the darkness. "But we cannot predict when she will regain consciousness. It's a waiting game at this point."The weight of Dr. Lee's words settled over them, a collective sense of
Enjoy the journey ------------- Steve sat motionless outside her ICU bed. He hadn't moved an inch since he arrived, not even to grab a bite to eat. His stomach growled with hunger, but he ignored it. All his attention was fixed on the door of her room. She was still in the ICU, fighting for her life. Every beep from the monitors sent a shiver down Steve's spine. His heart ached with worry, his mind consumed by thoughts of her fragile state. Steve couldn't shake the words of the doctor from his mind. "She is on the verge of depression..." The phrase echoed in his ears, haunting him like a broken record. Steve sat by Emily's bedside, his mind drifted back to moments from their past. He recalled the times when he had noticed Emily losing focus or struggling to remember things, but he had brushed them aside. How many times had he seen the signs of her distress, only to turn a blind eye? Steve's thoughts drifted back to that moment when Emily had started sobbing uncontrollably, s
( Continution of past) ..*..*..*..*... " I went too rough in these nights right....? Today I will make you feel soo good......" Steve's words hung in the air, Emily's heart sank with dread. The memories of past nights flooded her mind, each one filled with pain and anguish. She felt a knot form in her stomach as his hand moved towards the knot of her bathrobe, and without thinking, she reached out and grasped his hand tightly, her eyes pleading with him to stop. "Please... please, not like this," she begged, her voice barely above a whisper, trembling with fear and desperation. Flashing a smile Steve untied Emily's robe, her naked upper body was exposed in front of the mirror. Emily felt a wave of shame wash over her, her cheeks burning with embarrassment. She closed her eyes tightly, unable to bear the sight of herself in such a vulnerable state. But before she could protest, Steve's gentle nibble on her ear sent a shiver down her spine. His voice, though soft, carried a commandi
..*..*..*..*... (At present) Axel Pov :"What...!!!" Axel exclaimed, his voice filled with a mixture of horror and disbelief. The revelation struck him like a thunderbolt. Liam told him about Emily being culprit of Steve’s mother, her marriage with Steve in fact it should called Forced Marriage, and last most important she was forced to intimate with him. The words Axel used for her in the past was everything flashing in his mind, how idiot he was, how can he didn't see her empty eyes, when she looked at him it's so void, how can he missed the dullness on her face, how can he was so blind for his revenge that he couldn't see or feel anything. "How could I have been so blind?" Axel thought to himself, a wave of self-loathing washing over him. The emptiness in her eyes, the dullness on her face — all of it had been there and still he decided to ignore all this since he was blind by his anger. Axel's fury burned brighter at Liam's words, his jaw clenching as he struggled to contain h
