The car moved smoothly through the streets, the convoy of black SUVs following closely behind. Nadine sat quietly in the passenger seat, watching the city pass by. She still didn’t know where Adrian was taking her, and he refused to answer any of her questions.

She glanced at him. “Are you finally going to tell me where we’re going?”

Adrian smirked but kept his eyes on the road. “Just wait a little longer.”

Nadine sighed, leaning back in her seat. She had to admit, the suspense was making her both excited and nervous.

After about thirty minutes, the car slowed down and pulled into a large compound. Nadine looked out the window and gasped.

In front of them stood the biggest shopping mall she had ever seen. It wasn’t just a clothing mall—it was massive, with different sections for all kinds of products.

  • The Billionaire’s Redemption    Vanessa’s Fury

    The large mansion was silent except for the sound of Vanessa’s heels clicking against the polished marble floor. She walked down the grand staircase with her head held high, her silk robe flowing behind her like a cape. Her expression was as cold as ever, her sharp eyes scanning the living room as she descended.Suddenly, the sound of small feet running across the floor interrupted her thoughts.“Mommy!” Camille, her little daughter, called out excitedly as she ran toward her. The child’s eyes shone with happiness as she tried to hug her mother.But before she could even touch Vanessa, the woman’s face twisted in irritation, and she roughly shoved Camille away.“I told you to stop touching me unnecessarily!” Vanessa snapped, her voice sharp and filled with annoyance.Camille stumbled backward and fell to the ground, landing on her hands. Her lips trembled as tears welled up in her big brown eyes.A woman in a maid’s uniform rushed forward, panic written all over her face. She was Cami

  • The Billionaire’s Redemption    Perfect plan

    Nadine and Adrian arrived back at the house, and before they could even step fully inside, a small figure rushed toward them at full speed.“Mommy! Daddy!” Liam’s little voice rang with excitement as he threw himself into their arms.Adrian immediately bent down and caught Liam in a hug, lifting him off the ground effortlessly. “Hey, buddy! Did you miss us?”Liam nodded eagerly, wrapping his arms tightly around Adrian’s neck. “I missed you so much! Grandma and the nanny were nice, but I wanted you and Mommy to come back soon.”Nadine smiled at the warmth in her son’s voice, though her heart clenched slightly at how quickly Liam had grown attached to Adrian. She had spent years being the only parent in Liam’s life, and now, in just a short time, Adrian had become someone Liam looked up to and adored.Mrs. Blake stood nearby, watching the scene with a soft smile. “He was waiting for you both all day,” she said. “He even asked me how many minutes it would take for you to get home.”Adria

    The morning was bright, with the soft warmth of the sun filtering through the windows. Nadine stood near the doorway, watching as Mrs. Blake packed her last suitcase. There was a gentle smile on the older woman’s face, but Nadine could see the sadness in her eyes.“Are you sure you have to leave so soon?” Nadine asked, trying to keep her voice light, though she felt a twinge of sadness herself.Mrs. Blake turned and gave her a reassuring smile. “I have to, dear. But I promise I will visit soon. And you will visit me too, won’t you?”Nadine nodded. “Of course. Liam and I will come to see you soon.”Hearing his name, Liam, who had been quietly standing by the couch, suddenly ran over and wrapped his little arms around his grandmother’s legs. “Grandma, do you really have to go?” he asked, his voice filled with sadness.Mrs. Blake knelt and cupped his face in her hands. “Oh, my sweet boy, don’t be sad. I’ll see you very soon. I promise.”Liam’s lower lip trembled, but he nodded. “Okay. Bu

    The sleek black car slowly came to a stop in front of a grand shopping mall, one of the largest in the city. Before Nadine could reach for the door handle, her bodyguard, a tall and imposing man in a black suit, swiftly stepped forward and opened the door for her. She smiled slightly, appreciating the gesture but still not used to this level of security around her.As she stepped out, the bright morning sun reflected off the large glass doors of the mall, making them gleam. Nadine inhaled deeply, feeling a mixture of excitement and nervousness. This was her mall now her business, her responsibility.

Liam, who was seated in the back, kept humming a song, excited about meeting his grandparents.“Are you sure about this?” Nadine asked softly, glancing at Adrian. “Your father doesn’t exactly like me.”Adrian reached out and held her hand for a moment, squeezing it reassuringly. “It doesn’t matter what he thinks, Nadine. You and Liam are my family. He has to accept that.”Nadine let out a small sigh. She knew Adrian meant what he said, but she also knew that his father, Mr. Blake, was a man of pride. He had always wanted Adrian to marry someone from a wealthy, powerful family someone like Vanessa.Liam suddenly leaned forward. “Mommy, do you think Grandpa will like my drawings?” he asked with excitement in his eyes.Nadine turned to her son and smiled. “Of course, sweetheart.
