I froze the moment Daniel stepped into the room.
How dare he? How dare he walk in here as if nothing had happened? The last time I saw him, he had been doubled over in pain, his face contorted in shock after I drove a nail into his abdomen.
He hadn’t changed much. Still infuriatingly handsome, his dark hair brushed back neatly, his piercing eyes holding the same intensity that had always unnerved me. But now, there was something else there. Regret.
“You’ve got some nerve,” I said coldly, ri

SAM'S POV The Bennett mansion was quiet, save for the faint murmur of voices filtering in from the parlor downstairs. I leaned back against the armrest of the leather couch in my study, savoring the comfort of being home again after the chaos of the past week. My chest still ached faintly, a painful reminder of how close I’d come to losing everything, but at least I was alive, and finally out of the hospital.The knock at the door came just as I was finishing my coffee. I looked up to see William step inside, his sharp, silver-haired presence as commanding as ever.“Dad,” I said, sitting up straighter.

NORA'S POV The room descended into chaos.“Fraud! Fraud! Fraud!”The chants were relentless, a thunderous roar from the crowd that made my skin prickle. I gripped Sam’s arm tightly, my nails digging into his sleeve as I tried to steady myself. The lights above the stage felt blinding, the flashes of cameras like bursts of lightning.From the center of the crowd, a woman stepped forward, her dark eyes gleaming with satisfaction. Her sleek black hair framed sharp features that were calm, calculated, and terrif

SAM'S POV The morning air felt heavy, weighed down by the chaos brewing outside the Bennett estate. I sat at the kitchen table, scrolling through my phone with a sinking feeling in my stomach. The DNA test results were plastered everywhere—Pictory, media blogs, even reputable outlets.“Billionaire Scandal: Is Nora Bennett Carrying Another Man’s Child?”The headlines were brutal, ea

NORA'S POV The tension in the Bennett estate felt like a living, breathing thing, suffocating and relentless. Every corner of the house seemed to hum with whispers, each shadow heavy with suspicion. But I refused to let it break me.Sitting in Adrian’s office, I clenched my fists, staring at the photos of the fake DNA test results that had gone viral. The cold, sterile lab report had a single, damning conclusion: the child I carried wasn’t Sam’s. I knew it was a lie, but the damage it had done to my reputation was very real.“I need answers, Adrian,” I said, my voice steady but tinged with desperation.

SAM'S POV I was sitting at my desk, trying to lose myself in a stack of papers. But I couldn’t concentrate. My mind kept circling back to everything that had happened, the mess we were trying to untangle. I looked up as they approached, and immediately, I could feel the tension in the air.“What is it now?” I asked, my voice tired, edged with irritation. I didn’t have the energy for more bad news.Nora hesitated. Her eyes flickered toward Adrian before settling back on me. “Sam,” she began softly, “it’s about the fake DNA tes

SAM'S POV The tension in the Bennett mansion felt like a storm waiting to break. I stood at the head of the long dining table, the weight of the family’s expectations pressing down on me. Adrian was seated to my right, his usual calm demeanor masking the turmoil beneath. Genevieve sat at the other end, her sharp eyes scanning the room like a predator preparing to strike. Nora, radiant even in her exhaustion, was seated by my side, her hand resting protectively over her growing belly.The door opened, and my father stepped in, his face bearing a grave expression. But the person who followed him made my stomach churn. My father gave me a sad look and exited the

NORA'S POV I woke up that morning with one thing in mind: I missed Gen and I was going to try and talk to her. Tonight, Jacob was going to declare he and Evelyn's son a Bennett and claim a right to inherit but I could care less about that. I still felt like Gen was only acting, she had to still be my Gen.I walked to the office she had started using since we all started living here permanently for now. Genevieve’s office in the Bennett mansion was as stark and immaculate as its occupant. The windows stretched from floor to ceiling, offering an enviable view of the sprawling gardens. But I wasn’t here to admire the scenery. I was here to find the person Genevieve used to be.

SAM'S POV The drive back from the hospital felt surreal. The sight of our daughter on the ultrasound screen replayed in my mind, bringing a mixture of awe and protectiveness. She wasn’t even born yet, but I already felt fiercely devoted to her. Nora sat beside me, her hand resting on her belly, a soft smile gracing her lips.“We won’t tell anyone yet,” I said, glancing at her. “Not until the time is right.”She nodded, her smile fading slightly. “I don’t want to give anyone—especially Genevieve or Thomas—another reason to stir up chaos.”

NORA'S POVThe mansion felt unusually cold, even though it had stopped raining a while ago. As I stepped into the sitting room with Sam, tension crackled in the air like static. The entire Bennett clan—or what was left of it—had been summoned. Sam had insisted on an emergency meeting, and judging by the faces around the room, everyone knew the stakes were high.Aunt Angelina, dignified as ever, sat at the head of the room. Her sharp eyes scanned the gathering, already assessing the chaos before a word was spoken. Her daughter, a quiet woman in her early thirties, sat beside her, fiddling nervously with the edge of her sleeve.Across the room, Aunt Marion perched on the armrest of a chair, Jonathan standing protectively behind her. His smug expression made my stomach churn. Uncle Thomas sat alone, his shoulders slumped but his eyes defiant. Richard was flanked by his parents, his mother looking visibly weary, while Michael’s father sat stiffly, flanked by his wife and two daughters, bo

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-EIGHTSAM'S POVThe morning headlines were a whirlwind of chaos. Elias Roosevelt’s video, aimed at dismantling the Bennett name, had done the opposite. Social media was ablaze with mixed reactions, each comment a testament to how deeply the video had resonated—or backfired.In the footage, Elias stood in what appeared to be an old office filled with weathered books and dim lighting, holding a sealed envelope marked with the Bennett crest. He claimed it contained irrefutable evidence of the Bennett family’s corruption, betrayal, and self-destruction.Elias then detailed the Moretti scandal, the Angola oil deal, and the infighting that had rocked the family. He painted a picture of a dynasty in ruins, one that couldn’t even trust its own blood.The video had been shared millions of times across platforms, with hashtags like #BennettDownfall and #FamilyFeud trending worldwide. Commenters dissected every frame, speculating about the contents of the envelope

NORA'S POV The morning sunlight filtered through the grand windows of the Bennett library, illuminating the tension etched into every face around the table. I sat beside Sam, our shoulders barely touching, but the tension between us palpable. Genevieve leaned forward, elbows on the table, her fiery red hair contrasting with the dark wood of the desk. Alaric Laurent, effortlessly poised and self-assured, tapped his pen rhythmically against the table.“Elias Roosevelt is playing a dangerous game,”

SAM'S POV The sunlight filtering through the windows of the Bennett mansion felt intrusive, mocking the growing darkness inside me. Every step toward Uncle Thomas’s study felt heavier, each breath more labored. His betrayal had been a knife in my side, and I was about to twist it.Uncle Thomas had lived in the mansion since my father’s passing. His home on the estate was quieter, smaller, and he spent most of his time here in the main house. My mother often said it was his way of staying connected to family, but now I wondered if it had been something else—a way to remain close enough to strike.I didn’t both

SAM'S POV The street was eerily quiet as I stepped out of my car and walked towards Jonathan’s bungalow.He didn't seem surprised to see me but sat casually, leaning back in a chair, as though he hadn’t just torn the fabric of our family apart.“Oddly, I was expecting you, Samuel,” Jonathan said, his tone mocking.I clenched my fists at my sides. “You embezzled funds, Jonathan. You betrayed your family.”

NORA'S POV The sound of Sam’s phone ringing pierced the stillness of the morning. It had been going off non-stop since the news of Jonathan’s defection broke. Investors were panicking, employees were calling in fear of layoffs, and partners were threatening to terminate contracts.I watched as Sam stormed into the study, his face twisted in frustration. His father’s once-pristine sanctuary became a chaotic battlefield of papers, overturned furniture, and broken glass as he moved around the room, frustrated and angry.“Damn him!” Sam roared, sweeping a stack of documents off the desk. They scattered like fallen leaves, a physical manifestation of his unraveling composure.I followed him, stepping into the room cautiously, my heart aching at the sight of him like this. “Sam,” I said gently, moving closer. “Please, let’s talk…”He spun around, his eyes wild. “This is your fault!” he yelled, his voice cracking. “If you hadn’t gone to Milo Romano, if you hadn’t fallen for that stupid More

SAM'S POV The morning sunlight filtered through the tall windows of the Bennett mansion’s study, casting a warm glow over the room. But the warmth did little to alleviate the chill that seemed to settle in my chest. Papers were scattered across my desk—financial reports, lawsuit documents, and notes on the proposed merger. It was all too much, a constant reminder of how fragile everything had become.My mother entered, her heels clicking softly against the hardwood floor. She carried herself with her usual grace, but her expression was uncharacteristically tender. “You’re up early,” she said, setting a cup of tea on the desk in front of me.“Couldn’t sleep,” I muttered, leaning back in my chair. “Too much to think about.”She nodded, taking a seat across from me. For a moment, neither of us spoke. The silence was heavy, laden with things unsaid. Finally, Jacqueline broke it. “Sam, I need to apologize.”I looked up, startled. Jacqueline Bennett was many things, but apologetic wasn’t o

NORA'S POV The mansion was quiet as I tucked Zoe into her crib, her soft breathing the only sound in the dimly lit nursery. For a moment, I allowed myself the luxury of watching her sleep, her tiny hands curled into fists, her cheeks flushed with warmth. I closed the door softly and headed toward the library in search of Sam. The weight of everything pressed heavy on my shoulders. As I turned the corner, I nearly collided with Michael and Richard, both striding purposefully down the hallway.“Nora,” Michael said, his voice low. “You’ll want to come

SAM'S POV The morning sunlight sliced through the blinds of my office, illuminating the tension that hung thick in the room. My legal team sat across from me, their faces etched with grim determination. The betrayal felt suffocating, wrapping around my chest like a vice.“So let me get this straight,” I said, my voice icy as I leaned back in my chair, gripping the armrests to steady my simmering rage. “Jacob and Jonathan are claiming I mismanaged funds?”“Yes,” replied Linda, our lead attorney, her tone cautious but firm. “They’re focusing on two key examples: the
