As they strolled home, Atticus babbling excitedly in his stroller, Adelaide couldn't help but feel a sense of closure. Running into Lucas had been a surprise, but it had also been a reminder of how far she'd come. She had grown, learned, and loved, and she had emerged stronger and wiser.Mino seemed to sense her introspective mood, and he wrapped his arm around her shoulders, pulling her close. "Hey, you okay?" he asked, his voice low and gentle.Adelaide nodded, smiling up at him. "Yeah, I'm fine. Just thinking about how far we've come, that's all."Mino smiled back, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "We've come a long way, baby," he said, his voice filled with affection. "And we've got a whole lot further to go."As they walked, the sun began to set, casting a warm golden light over the neighborhood.

The bright lights of the art gallery illuminated the crowded room, casting a warm glow over the sea of elegant guests. Adelaide Cavendish, a 25-year-old aspiring artist, stood nervously beside her latest painting, fidgeting with the hem of her black cocktail dress.Adelaide's long, curly brown hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall, and her bright green eyes sparkled with excitement as she scanned the room. She had always dreamed of showcasing her art in a prestigious gallery like this one, and tonight was the night.As she sipped her glass of champagne, Adelaide's eyes landed on a tall, handsome man standing across the room. He was dressed in a tailored black tuxedo, his dark hair perfectly styled, and his piercing blue eyes seemed to bore into her soul.Adelaide felt a shiver run down her spine as the man's eyes locked onto hers. She quickly looked away, feeling a flush rise to her cheeks. Who was this mysterious stranger, and why did he seem so familiar?As the night wore on,

Vivian took a deep breath before continuing. "Lucas has always been a troubled child," she said. "He's had a lot of issues with anger and control, and he's always had a hard time forming healthy relationships."Adelaide listened intently, trying to understand what Vivian was saying."As he got older, Lucas's behavior became more and more erratic," Vivian continued. "He started to become obsessed with certain people, and he would stop at nothing to make them his own."Adelaide felt a chill run down her spine as she realized that she was one of the people Lucas had become obsessed with."I tried to get him help, but he refused," Vivian said. "And then, one day, he just disappeared. I didn't hear from him for years, and I thought maybe he had finally gotten the help he needed."But Vivian's next words sent a shiver down Adelaide's spine."But then, I started to hear rumors about Lucas's activities," Vivian said. "And I realized that he was still out there, still obsessed with controlling

As Adelaide ran, she could feel Lucas's eyes on her, boring into her skin. She knew that she had to get as far away from him as possible, but she also knew that she couldn't outrun him forever.Just as she was starting to tire, Adelaide saw a taxi cab driving down the street. She flagged it down, and the driver pulled over to let her in."Where to?" the driver asked, eyeing her in the rearview mirror.Adelaide hesitated, unsure of where to go. She couldn't go back to her apartment, not with Lucas knowing where she lived. And she couldn't go to a hotel, not without any money.Just as she was starting to panic, Adelaide remembered a friend from work who lived on the other side of town. She gave the driver her friend's address, and the taxi sped away from the curb.As they drove, Adelaide couldn't shake the feeling that Lucas was still watching her. She kept looking over her shoulder, expecting to see him standing on the sidewalk, his eyes fixed on her.But every time she looked, there w

As the months went by, Adelaide became more and more entrenched in Lucas's world. She had convinced herself that she could change him, that she could make him a better person. But the truth was, Lucas was never going to change. He was a master manipulator, and he had Adelaide right where he wanted her.Adelaide's friends and family had given up on her. They had tried to reach out, to warn her about Lucas's true nature, but she had refused to listen. She was convinced that she was in love with him, that he was the only one who truly understood her.But as the days turned into weeks, and the weeks turned into months, Adelaide began to see Lucas for what he truly was. She saw the way he controlled her, the way he manipulated her into doing what he wanted. She saw the way he would get angry, the way he would lash out at her when she didn't do what he wanted.And yet, despite all of this, Adelaide couldn't seem to escape. She was trapped in a cycle of abuse, and she didn't know how to get

As the days went by, Adelaide struggled to shake off the feeling of being watched. Every time she looked over her shoulder, she expected to see Lucas's menacing gaze staring back at her. Every creak of the floorboards, every rustle of leaves, made her jump with fear.She began to feel like she was living in a constant state of hyper-vigilance, always on edge, always waiting for the other shoe to drop. She couldn't sleep at night, her mind racing with worst-case scenarios, her heart pounding with anxiety.Sarah tried to be supportive, but even her friend's presence couldn't calm Adelaide's frazzled nerves. She felt like she was losing her grip on reality, like she was trapped in a never-ending nightmare.One day, while out running errands, Adelaide saw a man who looked vaguely like Lucas. Her heart skipped a beat as she quickly scanned the surrounding area, her eyes darting back and forth, searching for any sign of danger.She felt a wave of panic wash over her, her breath catching in

As the days went by, Adelaide and Lucas's relationship continued to blossom. They spent every spare moment together, and Adelaide couldn't help but feel like she was falling deeply in love with him.But not everyone was happy about their reunion. Sarah, Adelaide's best friend, was furious when she found out that Adelaide had taken Lucas back."Are you kidding me?" Sarah exclaimed, her voice shaking with anger. "After everything he did to you, you're just going to forgive him and take him back? That's insane, Adelaide!"Adelaide felt a surge of defensiveness, and she stood up to Sarah. "You don't understand, Sarah," she said, her voice firm. "Lucas is different now. He's changed, and he's truly sorry for what he did. I love him, Sarah, and I'm not going to give up on him."Sarah's face turned red with rage. "You're blinded by love, Adelaide," she spat. "You're not seeing the real Lucas. He's manipulating you, using you for his own gain. Wake up, Adelaide, before it's too late!"Adelaid

As they walked through the corridors, Adelaide suddenly stopped to tie her untied shoelace. She didn't say a word to Lucas, assuming that he would notice that she had stopped and wait for her.But as she bent down to tie her shoelace, she saw that Lucas was walking straight ahead, without even looking back at her. He didn't seem to notice that she was no longer by his side, and he just kept walking.Adelaide felt a pang of surprise and concern. She had expected Lucas to wait for her, or at least look back to make sure she was okay. But instead, he just kept walking, leaving her behind.As she finished tying her shoelace, Adelaide felt a red flag waving in her mind. This behavior was not okay, and it was not what she expected from someone who claimed to care about her.But despite the warning signs, Adelaide ignored them. She told herself that Lucas was just distracted, or that he didn't realize she had stopped. She didn't want to think that he was intentionally ignoring her, or that h

The Billionaire's Revenge Chapter 36
After a month of preparation, Adelaide and Mino's wedding day was finally approaching. They had spent countless hours planning every detail, from the flowers to the music, and were both excited and nervous about the big day.As they sat at the kitchen table, surrounded by wedding planning books and papers, Mino suddenly looked up at Adelaide and said, "You know, I've been thinking. We should have a special wedding song, just for us."Adelaide raised an eyebrow. "What did you have in mind?" she asked, a hint of amusement in her voice.Mino grinned mischievously. "I was thinking of 'I Will Always Love You' by Whitney Houston," he said, his voice dripping with drama.Adelaide burst out laughing. "Oh, Mino, that's so cheesy!" she exclaimed, wiping tears from her eyes.Mino looked offended, but then he couldn't help but laugh too. "Hey, it's a classic!" he protested.As they continued to plan their wedding, Adelaide and Mino couldn't help but make silly jokes and tease each other like they
The Billionaire's Revenge Chapter 35
As the days went by, Adelaide began to realize the full extent of the trauma and phobias that Lucas had inflicted upon her. She was plagued by nightmares and flashbacks, and she found it difficult to trust anyone, even Mino. But Mino was patient and understanding. He knew that Adelaide needed help, and he was determined to support her every step of the way. One day, Mino took Adelaide to a therapy session with a renowned psychologist. The therapist, Dr. Kim, was kind and compassionate, with a warm smile that immediately put Adelaide at ease. As the therapy sessions progressed, Adelaide began to open up about her experiences with Lucas. She shared her fears and anxieties, her feelings of guilt and shame. And with each session, she began to feel a weight lifting off her shoulders. Mino was always there to support her, visiting her in the hospital and sitting with her during her therapy sessions. He held her hand and listened to her, offering words of encouragement and comfort. As t

As Adelaide stood in the warm and cozy living room of Mino's house, she felt a wave of gratitude wash over her. She was thankful for everything that Mino had done for her, from saving her from Lucas's clutches to providing her with a safe and comfortable place to stay.But as she looked at Mino, who was standing in front of her with a kind and gentle expression, Adelaide couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt. She didn't deserve someone like Mino, someone who was so kind and selfless. She had made a wrong choice by going back to Lucas, and now she was paying the price."Mino, I don't deserve you," Adelaide said, her voice barely above a whisper. "I made a mistake by going back to Lucas, and now I'm paying the price. You deserve someone so much better than me."Mino's expression softened even further as he looked at Adelaide. He could see the pain and guilt in her eyes, and he knew that she was struggling to come to terms with what had happened.Adelaide expected Mino to lecture her, t
The Billionaire's Revenge Chapter 33
As Mino drove away from the scene, he couldn't shake off the feeling that Lucas was still a threat. He glanced in the rearview mirror, and his worst fears were confirmed. Lucas's car was right behind them, his eyes blazing with anger and determination.Adelaide saw the look on Mino's face and turned around to see what was wrong. Her eyes widened in fear as she saw Lucas's car gaining on them."Oh no," she whispered, her voice trembling with fear. "He's going to catch us."Mino's eyes locked onto the road ahead, his grip on the steering wheel tightening. "Don't worry, I've got this," he said, his voice calm and reassuring.But Adelaide could see the tension in his body, the way his eyes darted back and forth between the road and the rearview mirror. She knew that Mino was worried, that he was trying to protect her from Lucas's wrath.As they sped through the streets, Lucas's car gaining on them with every passing second, Adelaide felt a sense of panic wash over her. She was trapped, wi

As the family gathering continued, with everyone enjoying the luxury foods spread out on the table, a sudden step of a foot echoed through the room. The sound grew louder, and soon, a man came into view.He walked with a confident stride, his eyes scanning the room as if searching for someone. As he approached the table, his eyes landed on Adelaide, and for a moment, they just stared at each other.The man took a seat in the vacant chair, and as he did, the room fell silent. Everyone's eyes were fixed on him, and Adelaide could feel the tension in the air.It was Mino.Adelaide's eyes widened in shock as she took in Mino's matured presence. He looked different, yet the same. His eyes still sparkled with the same warmth and kindness, but his features had become more defined, more chiseled.Mino smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners, and said, "Why the shocked faces? I'm part of this family, too."Lucas, who had been quiet until then, let out a grin and said, "Some things never chan
The Billionaire's Revenge Chapter 31
As Adelaide walked through the front door of her home, she couldn't help but feel a sense of relief wash over her. She had been dreading coming home, knowing that Lucas would likely be waiting for her with a scowl on his face and a list of criticisms at the ready.But as she stepped into the quiet, empty house, Adelaide felt a sense of calm settle over her. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, letting the stillness of the house envelop her.As she stood there, Adelaide's mind began to wander back to her encounter with Mino earlier that day. She couldn't help but smile as she thought about the way he had smiled at her, the way he had laughed at his own joke.As she walked into the living room, Adelaide's eyes landed on an old photo album that was sitting on the coffee table. She picked it up, running her fingers over the worn cover, and began to flip through the pages.The photos were old, taken during her and Mino's time together. Adelaide's heart swelled with nostalgia as she

As the days went by, Adelaide found herself locked in the room, with no escape. She begged Lucas to release her, promising to do anything he wanted, but he just laughed and told her she was his prisoner.Adelaide was desperate. She had never felt so trapped and helpless in her life. She paced back and forth in the room, trying to find a way out, but there was none. The door was locked, and the windows were barred.As the days turned into weeks, Adelaide began to lose hope. She heard Lucas coming and going, always with a different woman. She heard the sounds of laughter and sex, and it made her feel like she was being torn apart.Adelaide couldn't understand why Lucas was doing this to her. Hadn't she loved him enough? Hadn't she given him everything he wanted? Why was he treating her like this?As the days went by, Adelaide became more and more withdrawn. She stopped eating, stopped sleeping, and stopped caring about anything. She just lay on the bed, staring blankly at the wall, feel
The Billionaire's Revenge Chapter 29
As the night wore on, Lucas stumbled through the front door, reeking of alcohol and staggering like a drunkard. Adelaide, who had been sitting on the couch, waiting for him to come home, looked up at him with a mixture of concern and disappointment."Lucas, where have you been?" she asked, trying to keep her voice steady.Lucas looked at her with a bleary gaze, his eyes unfocused and his speech slurred. "I've been out with the boys," he mumbled. "We were celebrating a big deal at work."Adelaide sighed, feeling a pang of frustration and worry. She had been waiting up for him, worried sick about where he was and what he was doing. And now, he came stumbling in, drunk and smelling like a barroom.As Lucas stumbled towards the couch, Adelaide got up to help him. But instead of thanking her or apologizing for his behavior, Lucas pushed her away."Leave me alone," he growled, his voice cold and unforgiving. "I don't need your help."Adelaide felt a sting from his words, but she tried to ig
