“Why did you leave the car?” Sarah asked with a sharp frown. She looked at the reporters who had gathered around them and, with a subtle shift in demeanor, she gave them a warm smile. “Dear press, we’re all friends here. You shouldn’t cause unnecessary chaos just to get a few headlines. Please, don’t distract everyone.”The reporters paused, exchanging glances, as Sarah’s calm, authoritative tone made them reconsider their aggressive approach.“But is the wedding canceled?” one of the reporters pressed, unwilling to back down just yet.Sarah let out an exaggerated sigh. “Canceled?” she repeated, feigning confusion. “Who told you that? The wedding is still happening as planned. I’ve already spoken with the Thompsons. They’re on their way here now.”The reporters glanced at each other, their skepticism giving way to uncertainty. They had hoped for a scandal, but Sarah’s composure made them question their assumptions.“Oh, we’re sorry for the misunderstanding,” one of them apologized, ba

Lily frowned, her mind racing. “We know that’s a lie. I called Marcus’s phone, and it was switched off, along with Mrs. Thompson’s. So how did Mom reach them?” she asked, her voice tinged with frustration, confusion, and a growing sense of betrayal.Austin glanced at her, noting the sharpness in her tone. He hadn’t expected her to catch on so quickly, but now that she had, there was no way to hide the truth. He had to try to keep the situation under control, even though he didn’t have all the answers.“Just calm down, okay?” he said, his voice strained as he tried to maintain control of the conversation. It was all he could manage, but his words felt hollow against the rising tension in the air.“Calm down?” Lily’s voice rose, her tone full of disbelief. “How can I be calm in this situation? I’ve already boasted about this wedding to everyone! All of the people I invited are inside that hall right now. How am I supposed to stay calm when everything’s falling apart?” Her face twisted i

Austin noticed a woman hastily walking towards the exit and immediately stepped in her path, stopping her. “Where are all the guests?” he asked, confused and slightly alarmed. He had been outside just moments ago and hadn’t seen anyone leaving.The woman’s impatience was evident as she answered, barely sparing him a glance. “I heard there’s another event upstairs, so everyone rushed there,” she said, her tone clipped as she hurried past him, clearly heading in the same direction.Lily’s brows furrowed at this. She looked to her father for some clarity. “I thought the hall was rented just for my wedding?” she asked, her voice thick with frustration and disbelief.Before Austin could respond, Sarah walked into the hall. She froze when she saw the emptiness. “Huh? What’s going on? Why is the hall suddenly empty?” she asked, her voice rising in confusion as she looked around the space.Austin met her gaze, but said nothing, his thoughts consumed by what the woman had just told him. Sarah,

Lilian walked into the house that evening, surprised to see her father with an elderly man. They were deep in conversation, as if they had been friends for years. “Dad,” Lilian greeted him. Gabriel looked up and smiled. “You’re back. How was work?” he asked. “It was fine, Dad,” she replied, turning her attention to the elderly man. “Good evening, sir,” she greeted him politely. “How are you doing?” the man asked, his face lighting up with a warm smile. “I’m doing very well, sir. What about you?” Lilian responded, offering him a smile of her own. “I’m doing fine. You look so beautiful,” the old man said, nodding his head approvingly. Lilian blushed at the compliment. “Thank you, sir.” “This is Marcus’ grandfather,” Gabriel introduced. Lilian froze in surprise. She had never met Marcus’ grandfather before. This was her first time meeting him. “Oh! Hello, sir!” she greeted him warmly, now understanding who he was. “We never met when you and Marcus were still together,” the old

She looked up, and her expression immediately twisted into one of pure hatred.The man she had once deceived—manipulated into risking his life for her

Marcus sat at his desk, fingers moving swiftly across his laptop keyboard as he reviewed the latest security reports. His office was quiet except for the rhythmic tapping of his fingers. The sunlight streaming through the window cast a soft glow on the room, highlighting the expensive furnishings and the neatly organized stacks of paperwork on his desk.A sudden knock at the door interrupted his focus.“Come in,” he called out without looking up.The door swung open, and when he finally looked up, he was surprised to see Lilian standing there with Matt by her side.His brows lifted slightly, but his expression quickly softened.

He stepped forward, walking straight toward Marcus’s desk.“Good morning!” the boy greeted enthusiastically.Marcus stood from his chair, his gaze shifting between Lilian and Matt.

Marcus shrugged and turned to Moses, pulling out his phone. With a swipe, he brought up a picture of Linda and held it out for him to see.Moses squinted at the image, his brow furrowing. Something about her seemed familiar, but he couldn’t quite place it.“She…” he muttered, trying to recall. He knew this woman—he was sure of it. But from where?“She used to work for your company,” Marcus supplied, his tone flat. “She got fired, and after that, she developed a deep hatred for Lilian. She believed Lilian was the reason she lost her job.”Moses clenched his fists. “Damn it.” His jaw tightened as guilt weighed down on him. He should have been keeping an eye on Linda, should have monitored her actions. If he had, maybe Lilian wouldn’t have been dragged into this mess.Marcus exhaled sharply before turning back to the captive man. He crossed his arms and studied him carefully. “Sooo… are you ready?” he asked, his tone casual but laced with authority.The man slowly lifted his head, his ex

Marcus pulled out his phone as he strode into the dimly lit warehouse. His fingers moved swiftly across the screen as he dialed Moses’ number.The call connected after two rings.“Who else did you tell about me taking those men to the warehouse?” Marcus asked, his voice calm but firm.Moses hesitated for a second before answering, “Noah.”Marcus frowned slightly. “Is he a hacker?”“No, he’s not. Why? What’s wrong?” Moses’ voice carried a hint of concern. “Did they escape?”“No, they didn’t.” Marcus’ eyes darkened as he recalled the email Hilary had received. “But my assistant just got an email… and it contains every detail we need.”There was silence on the other end for a moment before Moses spoke again. “Where are you right now?”“I’m on my way to the warehouse,” Marcus replied as he continued walking.“Okay, I’m coming now,” Moses said. Marcus could hear the rustling of movement, as if he was already getting up.“Alright.” Marcus ended the call.The cold, musty air of the warehouse

Lilian woke up to the sound of the door creaking open. A soft shuffle of footsteps followed, and she turned her head in the direction of the noise. The doctor and a nurse walked in, their expressions neutral but observant as they approached.She sat up slowly, rubbing her temples as confusion settled in. Something felt… off. Her eyes widened when she looked down and realized she was lying on the hospital bed.How?She clearly remembered sitting on the chair by Marcus’ bedside. She had rested her head against the mattress for a bit, but she was certain she had never moved. Had someone placed her on the bed while she was asleep? But who?Her gaze flickered toward Marcus, who was still sitting in the chair beside her, watching her with a calm expression.The doctor and nurse also seemed surprised to find her in bed instead of the chair. The doctor hesitated for a moment before finally speaking.“Good morning, sir,” he greeted Marcus respectfully.Marcus gave a curt nod, acknowledging him
