Sara's Point of View The mansion felt too small today. Every corner held memories of Josh, his laugh echoing down hallways, the lingering scent of his cologne in the study, the way his eyes followed me when he thought I wasn't looking. I couldn't focus on the script for tomorrow's commercial. The
Chapter 317 Eva's Point of View Family dinners had always been my favorite part of the day, but lately they'd become an exercise in watching an exquisite dance of denial. Tonight was no different as I observed Josh and Sara carefully avoid looking at each other while somehow being hyperaware of ev
Chapter 318 Sara's Point of View The envelope sat on my dressing table like a ticking bomb. Prison-issued paper, my mother's elegant handwriting somehow maintaining its grace despite her circumstances. I'd been staring at it for hours, unable to open it, unable to throw it away. My phone buzzed a
"Sara?" Josh's voice seemed to come from far away. "What can I do?" A sob tore from my throat. Without hesitation, he crossed the room and pulled me into his arms. For once, he didn't maintain careful distance or worry about boundaries. He simply held me while I cried. "She's dying," I managed bet
"You didn't have to follow his plans." Bitterness crept into my voice. "You chose to help him kill Eva's mother. Chose to watch her die slowly." "I know." Tears filled her eyes. "Not a day passes that I don't see Leah's face. She was kind to me, even as the poison took her. Sometimes I wake up scre
Chapter 319 The garden's night blooming jasmine filled the air with sweetness as Josh made his final rounds of the fotress grounds. Helena had insisted on top-notch security after the recent paparazzi incidents, and he took his role as Sara's protector seriously, perhaps too seriously, given how hi
"Operation Love Birds is now in session!" Mia declared, banging her plastic princess wand against her bedroom floor like a gavel. Her brothers gathered around in a tight circle, their faces serious with six-year-old determination. "Are you sure about the name?" Leo whispered, glancing at the door
Sara's Point of View The morning started with an urgent text from Eva about a "childcare emergency." I rushed to the mansion, expecting chaos, only to find four suspiciously well-behaved children setting up what appeared to be a romantic picnic in the garden. "Aunty Sara!" Mia bounced over, her pr
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 336 Josh's Point of View The message arrived during Sara's photoshoot: "Remember Danny's Bar? Time to talk about old debts." My blood turned to ice as memories flooded back - broken glass, crimson stains, screams in the darkness. Ten years of carefully buried history threatening to surfac
Chapter 335 Josh's Point of View Camera flashes exploded like lightning as Sara stepped onto the red carpet. Fashion Week's opening gala always drew media attention, but tonight felt different. Every lens focused on us, hungry for hints of scandal between manager and model. I maintained professio
"Sara..." "Sometimes I wonder if they are." The confession spilled out before I could stop it. "If somewhere inside me, that capacity for darkness just waits to emerge." "No." The fierceness in his voice made me look up. "You're nothing like them." "How can you be sure? You've seen what parents c
