Chapter 275: Max point of view I found Eva in our bedroom after the prison visits, her face troubled as she watched our children playing in the garden below. "We need to talk about Martha," she said quietly. "There's nothing to discuss. She faces charges for what she did to our family." Eva tu
Max point of view Alexander's hands shook as we waited in my office. Nathan was on his way with Eva, who'd picked him up from Martha's house. "What if he hates me?" Alexander paced. "What if he can't accept this?" "He's five," I reminded him. "Give him time. Give yourself time." The door opened
"You were always too soft for business," he waved dismissively. "Too weak to handle the Graves legacy." The familiar insult hit old wounds. "Like when I was ten and won second place in the school competition? What did you call me then? 'Pathetic weakling who couldn't even beat Max?'" "You needed t
The Sinclair mansion dining room buzzed with warmth. Laughter and conversation filled the air as the family enjoyed their meal. The long table was packed with relatives, all gathered under the glow of the chandelier. Nathan sat between Alexander and Mia, proudly showing off his latest drawing. "Loo
Sara's point of view I sat on the garden bench, watching the expanded family through the window. Eva in the kitchen with Helena, children running everywhere, Max and Alexander deep in conversation. The scene felt like a painting I could only observe from outside. "Why are you sitting alone?" Josh
Helena Sinclair called the family meeting in her grand living room. Everyone sat in a circle, Eva and Max with their quadruplets, Sara and Josh on the loveseat, William Brown beside his mother inlaw. The afternoon sun streamed through tall windows, highlighting faces still healing from Samuel's betr
Eva's point of view I stood before the mirror in my dressing room, my fingers tracing the simple white silk of my dress. No elaborate cathedral this time. No hundreds of guests in designer outfits. No society photographers documenting every moment. Just our family, gathered in Helena's garden for
Tears filled my eyes, blurring his beloved face. "I promise to match my tie to Mia's dresses for as long as she wants me to. To cut Leo's sandwiches into dinosaur shapes, even when I'm running late. To never miss another of Sam's soccer games, no matter what crisis arises. To listen to James's scie
Chapter 343 Sara's Point of View The email to Versace sat drafted on my laptop, cursor blinking accusingly. Two simple words that could change everything: "I decline." My finger hovered over the send button when Josh burst into my room, waving a paper printout. "What is this?" His voice cracked
Chapter 342 The mansion's lights glowed warmly as Josh pulled up the long driveway, Sara's hand clasped tightly in his. Through the windows, they could see small faces pressed against the glass, waiting. "They haven't moved from that spot since you left," Helena's voice carried from the front step
Josh point of view The photoshoot studio buzzed with frantic energy as crew members broke down equipment. I burst through the doors, heart pounding against my ribs, only to find Sara already gone. "She left ten minutes ago," the photographer informed me. "Headed to the airport. Said something abo
The jasmine's sweetness wrapped around us as we sealed these vows with kisses. Somewhere in the mansion, a light flicked on, probably Helena watching with satisfaction as her family grew stronger. But in that moment, there was only Sara. Her love. Her acceptance. Her unwavering faith in the man I c
Josh's Point of View The garden's night-blooming jasmine filled the air with sweetness as I paced between rose bushes. Something felt different tonight, the weight of Marcus's threats mysteriously lifted, leaving me oddly unbalanced. Like a prisoner suddenly finding his cell door unlocked. "We nee
The trap was set in Helena's private office, every detail meticulously planned. Max's security team monitored feeds from hidden cameras while William stood ready with legal documents. Eva kept watch through the mansion's security system, making sure Josh remained occupied with the quadruplets' "emer
"Including whatever happened at Danny's Bar," Eva added quietly. Helena's fingers tightened on her chair arms. "That night is buried for good reason." "Clearly not buried deep enough," William observed. "The question is: how do we handle this without making things worse?" "I have contacts in the
Chapter 338 "Uncle Josh is in trouble," Mia announced, her small face unusually serious as she burst into Eva's study. Her brothers tumbled in after her, all wearing matching expressions of concern. Eva looked up from her paperwork, noting their agitation. "What makes you say that, sweetheart?" "
Chapter 337 Sara's Point of View Something changed in Josh after that man appeared in the alley. The warmth we'd built, those precious moments of connection - all vanished behind walls higher than ever before. He moved through meetings and photoshoots like a ghost, checking his phone constantly wi
