Julia’s POVThe moment she finished, it was as if no one believed what just happened.I slowly stood up, adjusting my sleeves. “Now, if I recall correctly, Scarlett, you just said my leadership has brought instability? $900 million doesn’t sound very unstable to me.”A few board members turned to each other, whispering. One of them frowned. “This… Is this real?”“Of course, it is.” I gave them a cool smile. “Lynwood doesn’t play games. But you know who does?” I turned my gaze to Scarlett. “People who try to stage coups without thinking ahead.”Her face paled slightly.“You’re lying,” she hissed. “This was planned. There’s no 900 million dollars.” Scarlett declared.Scarlett’s power crumbling before her eyes. No one was willing to move forward with the vote anymore, not when I had secured the biggest investment in the company’s history.Everyone was surprised. I then asked, “Is there anyone else who still wants to drive me away?”No one said a word, and they all turned to look at Scar

Julia’s POVI turned to see Celeste standing, her lips curved into a smile that looked just sweet enough to be sickening. What does she want now?I didn’t have the patience for this today. I ignored her presence and turned on my heel, walking right past her without sparing a second glance. But just as I took a step forward, she spoke again.“You should apologize to Alex,” she said and took a step closer. I froze mid-step, irritation flaring inside me. I turned to face her, my eyebrow arched in disbelief. “What?”Celeste crossed her hands together, her expression contorting into something that could almost pass for concern. “You know, the security project. Alex is really upset because of it, Julia. He hasn’t been eating properly. He’s barely sleeping. I’m so worried about his health,” she continued, her brows furrowing with that same fake distress. I stared at her, unable to comprehend how she could stand there with a straight face, spouting this nonsense. Was she serious? Was I real

Julia’s POVLucas’s hand was still gripping Alex’s, his fingers tightening with a quiet warning. His expression remained unreadable. Then, with an easy confidence, Lucas took a step closer, his voice cutting through the silence.“I remember telling you not to lay a hand on a lady.” He said nonchalantly.His words carried weight like a threat. Alex’s jaw clenched, his pride refusing to let him, but there was hesitation in his eyes, whether to back off or not.Alex scoffed and took a step away. Then, just as I expected, he turned into accusations.“Of course, Lucas is here for you,” he sneered. “That’s why he always rushes to your side. You two must have something going on. That’s the real reason he’s so eager to help, isn’t it?”I exhaled sharply, disgusted but not surprised. Alex was grasping at straws, desperate to paint me in the wrong.Lucas, however, smiled and took a few steps forward. He didn’t so much as blink at Alex’s accusation, merely adjusting the cufflinks on his pristine

Julia’s POVMy heart lurched at the sheer panic in Isabella’s voice. Before I could say anything, the call cut off abruptly. I stared at my phone, my pulse racing. Something was wrong, terribly wrong. With shaking hands, I redialed the number, but the call didn’t go through. I tried again and again and again but the same result.“The number you are trying to reach is currently switched off.”The automated message sent a shiver down my spine in fear. Why was her phone suddenly off? What had just happened to her? Did they hurt her? Is she fine? A lot of questions ran through my mind that I could not get the answers to.I was reluctant to let Isabella get into danger because of me, so I made my way out and quickly rushed to the bar. I knew where they were. The Midnight Club, Alex went there every time he drank.Worried if they had done anything to her already. I arrived there as soon as I could and the moment I stepped inside, the overpowering stench of alcohol hit me and it was nauseat

Julia’s POVThe moment I opened my eyes, I found myself in a room. A dull throbbing pounded at the back of my head as I blinked to steady my view. My body felt sluggish and uncooperative the moment I tried to move my head. Immediately, I remember what happened. How I went to defend Isabella and ended up being forced to drink for Alex and on my way out, I had slumped while going to get Bella’s coat. I tried to sit up, but a heavy dizziness crashed over me, making the room spin and immediately, I held onto my head. Nothing was making sense to me. Where was I and how did I get here? I forced myself upright, heart hammering as I scanned the room. It looked like a luxury hotel room. Both the windows and doors were locked. I looked around but couldn’t find my phone.Suddenly, the door creaked open.Someone stepped inside. I was shocked to see it was Jude. His presence made my skin crawl in anger. His eyes raked over me, a slow smirk pulling at his lips.“You’re awake,” he mused, shutting

Julia’s POVMy kick missed the mark. Instead of landing where I aimed, which was his groin, it struck his thigh. Jude’s face twisted in rage, his already bloodshot eyes darkening with fury.“How dare you?,” he snarled, his voice filled with violent intent.I barely had time to dodge as he lunged at me and dragged me by my hair before landing me a slap. “You shouldn’t try that next time.” He slapped me again.Then he pinned me to the wall and held both of my hands behind my back. “I am not Alex. Don’t mess with me.” He yanked me out of the wall as he made me look him in the eyes. My body screamed in protest, bruised and aching. I staggered back, gasping for air. My mind reeled, flashing back to my previous experience at the prison before I died. That cold prison, I wouldn't want to experience such again. No. Never again. Not when I could use my boxing experience to defend myself. That kick, although a bit clumsy, made me believe in myself once again, convinced that I could still us

Julia’s POVI slowly lifted my face upward, my breath coming in ragged gasps, and to my surprise, I saw Lucas. His expression stunned as he looked down on me. Seeing Lucas, that was a relief, knowing I had ran into my saviour.I stuttered, my words came as a frantic mess as I tried to explain. “They’re… they’re coming after me!” My voice cracked, my body shaking from fear and exhaustion.Lucas’s brows furrowed. He barely had time to process my words before the two bodyguards in dark suits stepped forward, their expressions were cold.“Hand the girl over,” one of them demanded.Panic surged through me, and I did the only thing I could think of, I moved closer to him as I pressed myself against his chest, my fingers clutching to his clothes.Lucas took a step backward, and for a split second, my heart clenched. He didn’t want to help me. He was going to leave me to them. But then, without a word, he shrugged off his jacket and draped it over my shoulders. The jacket swallowed me, shie

Alex’s POVAustra Grand Hotel? What’s happening there?After receiving a call from Lucas, I felt extremely puzzled as I wondered why he needed to see me. His voice had been sharp, furious, demanding that I show up at the hotel immediately. I grabbed my phone and dialled my secretary’s number, who's also my assistant. “Cornel, I need some information about the Austra Grand Hotel.” “Alright sir.” “Yes. Find out if something happened at that hotel recently.”Minutes later, he returned with a grim expression. “Sir, Julia Carter was there tonight.”A cold chill ran down my spine. Julia? At that hotel doing what and with who? My entire body tensed.The words slammed into me like a fist. A sharp, ugly jealousy twisted in my gut. Lucas had called and I was certain she was with Lucas. My jaw clenched as images I didn’t want to see flashed in my mind, her in his arms, his hands on her and maybe they even kissed.“Prepare the car,” I ordered, my voice cold. I needed to see for myself.And if

Julia’s POV I could see how Celeste flared and then she approached. Her eyes were already filled with tears and then she spoke.“Did you lay with her, Alex?” she demanded, tugging Alex’s shirt.Alex didn’t answer. He tried to speak but no words came. He was speechless.“Did you spend a night with her in this room? Did you touch her? Did you kiss her?” Her voice was louder now as she tugged his shirt harder this time. “Tell me it’s not true.” Alex pinched the skin in between his brows in frustration. “Don’t listen to Julia. She has clearly gone insane.” His words fell on deaf ears.Celeste took a step forward and now was standing in front of me. “Liar!” She snapped and then strolled towards me. “Julia, stay away from my man! You…”Alex’s voice interrupted.“Celeste, you need to calm down. You’ve got a headache already.” Alex tried pulling her into his embrace but she struggled out.“You laid with her, didn’t you?” “Celeste, that's not true.” he defended.“Don’t lie to me!” she screa

Julia’s POVAlex rushed in, his eyes darting straight to Celeste who has dramatically slumped against the sink. Her hands were shaking slightly all of a sudden and her tears had somehow stayed perfectly in place, smudging her mascara just enough to make her look like a victim.“Alex!” she wailed, before he could even open his mouth, she spoke again. “She tried to attack me. And look!” She grabbed the hem of her dress, showing it toward him to reveal the soggy stain of tomato juice. “She splashed this all over me! I was only trying to make lunch.” She added, her voice sounding more like a whisper as she buried her face on Alex’s shoulder. I didn’t even try to defend myself. Not yet. I stood there, arms crossed, watching the scene. I wasn’t afraid of what will come next.Then Alex’s jaw clenched as he turned to me. “What the hell is wrong with you, Julia?” he snapped as he approached me, grabbing my wrist with force. “You’ve crossed the line this time. You’re lucky I’m even still tol

Julia’s POVAlex shot me a cold gaze, weighing whether to respond to me or head towards the door but I held his stare, unflinching.Suddenly, the knock came again.He didn’t say a word. He didn’t even glance my way as he turned and strode to the door. Pulling the door open. Celeste was standing at the door, her expression looking worried and shortly a dazzling smile plastered across her face, she threw herself to him, yet both hands placed around his neck.“Alex.” She called.Alex, still unmoved by her presence, broke the silence first.“Why are you here, Celeste?” Before she could react, she pressed a kiss to his lips but I kept his expression flat, unimpressed.Then suddenly, Celeste’s eyes found me.Her smiling lips froze mid-curve, her entire expression faltering cold. Now, she shot me a cold gaze.“Why is Julia here?” Celeste questioned as jealousy flashed in her gaze.“Grandpa had asked her to stay for the night.” Alex replied. “The both of you slept in grandpa’s house?” The j

Julia’s POVScreaming, he fell to the ground and immediately, I didn’t hesitate. My legs moved swiftly as I rushed towards the door, yanking at the handle as I tried to pull it open but it didn’t open at first trial. Panic clawed through me as I pulled harder.It took me a terrible, frantic moment to realize I was pulling the door the wrong way. I was so overwhelmed.Immediately, I switched my grip, shoved the door the other way with trembling hands, and finally, it opened. Without sparing a glance backwards at Alex, I slammed it shut behind me and turned the key in the lock.I could hear him behind the door, spluttering and screaming my name, his voice was filled with rage. “You will regret this! I swear!”I didn’t dare respond as I quickly began to dress up while Alex continued banging the door, as if to break it. Gradually, his knocking stopped.Courageously, I moved slowly towards the bathroom door. Reaching there, I could now clearly hear the sounds of water, as if the shower wa

Julia’s POV“Now, I already saw what was coming. I could feel my heart, beating so fast.That bowl of soup that Grandpa specially left for Alex just now?We were deceived by Grandpa's little trick.“Alex…” I barely got the words out before he crossed the space between us. His fingers closed around my wrists, rough and impatient, his body pressing into mine as he pinned me to the wall. His lips sought mine hungrily, but I turned my head, catching only the corner of my mouth before I managed to twist away.“Stop,” I breathed, struggling against his grip, panic clawing at me. “Alex, please.”He staggered a few steps forward, trying to regain his stamina. “I want you Julia… You’ve been denying me for too long,” he said, his voice sounding almost drunken. “But not tonight.” He added.I fought harder, shoving at his chest, but it was like pushing against heavy stone that never moved. His drugged state made fear spiked through me. I wriggled free from his grasp with sheer, desperate effort

Julia’s POVLater that evening, we arrived at Mr. Sterling’s grand building. As soon as we stepped inside, the dining table was already set.From the staircase, midway down, Mr. Sterling caught sight of us. His gaze landed on me first, and a broad smile brightened his face as he called out my name. “Julia!”He began descending the steps eagerly. His arms opened wide, expectant, and I found myself moving toward him almost instinctively with my lips curving out a genuine smile. “It’s so good to see you,” he said, pulling me into a warm embrace. “How are you doing?” I asked softly as I stepped back, my hands still lightly on his arms as my eyes examined him. His eyes softened. “Stronger now that you’re here,” he replied.Carefully, I led him to the head of the table. He sank into his seat with a contented sigh. I took my place beside him, and Alex settled in the chair next to me.Dinner commenced. Mr. Sterling’s joy seemed to grow with every passing moment, his eyes flicking betwee

Julia’s POVThose words had barely left Alex’s lips when I caught the way Yvonne and Nicole shared a glance between themselves. It wasn’t just a casual look and then heir eyes flicked toward Celeste. She stood there, visibly stiff, her gaze fixed on Alex as though willing him to notice her. But he didn’t. He didn’t spare her even a glance, and I saw how Celeste tried not to feel embarrassed. Yvonne moved first. She crossed the small space between her and Celeste and then she spoke.“Oh, Celeste… He is here for Julia. I can’t wait to see how he teaches her a lesson.” Then Yvonne gave me a look that described she’s at the winning side.Celeste’s shifted uncomfortably, just for a second, but she said nothing. Nicole followed Yvonne’s lead. “Alex didn’t even give you a glance.” Her words made Celeste shoot her a deadly gaze that shut her up.I saw the way Celeste’s chest rose with restrained breath. She was feeling overwhelmed. She tried not to react, but her hands curled slightly at h

Julia’s POVThey all looked back, to the source of the voice as they saw Lucas strolling forward like a perfect gentleman. Then Yvonne whispered in a very low tone. “Oh my god! That’s Mr. Lynwood.” Yvonne’s gaze shifted to Nicole and then to Celeste and then to Lucas.His presence alone commanded fear in them. I could see how they flinched, taking a few steps away from me. He didn’t raise his voice, nor did he need to. His words were cool and calm.Now standing in front of them, he broke the silence. “Are you finished?” Lucas’s gaze swept across Yvonne and then to Nicole. There was a glint in his eyes, it was cold, penetrating, unforgiving. He took a slow step closer while they took a step backwards. “I was in the middle of an important discussion with Miss Wilson,” he continued, “but it seems you have a penchant for interrupting matters far beyond your understanding.”Celeste’s mouth moved but no words came. Perhaps she knew what Lucas was capable of. At least she has seen him multi

Julia’s POVThe instant the words left my mouth, I knew I had struck a nerve. I saw something dark flash across Celeste’s face. Her eyes were gleaming with suppressed fury, she wanted to explode. Her fingers curled into first as she looked helpless. “Let’s leave here.” Celeste chimed in but her words fell on deaf ears.“You arrogant bitch!” Yvonne spat, lunging at me with sudden violence. Her hand came up fast, aiming for my face, but I caught her wrist mid-air before her slap could land.I tightened my grip on her wrist, forcing her to meet my glare. “Don’t dare,” I warned, my voice was low and dangerous.“This should be your first and last time you cross my path. Otherwise, you may likely go back home with a fractured bone. I’m only trying to be nice.” I said.“Celeste, please help me.” She cried.Yvonne struggled against my hold, but I didn’t let her go. Nicole, emboldened by her friend’s attempt, grabbed for the edge of my blouse as if to yank me off balance. She barely touched m
