Elena opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but the words wouldn’t come.Given her own past, she couldn’t even refute him.“But that doesn’t mean we can’t be together.” Lucas spoke again.Elena blinked.Lucas hugged her waist tightly, pulling her face closer to his heart. “If our families are the problem, then we don’t have to tell them. We’ll convince them. One step at a time, until they have no choice but to agree.”Just like that, their underground relationship blossomed.If someone had told Elena in the past that she would one day be in a relationship with Lucas Evans, the same Lucas Eva

He then turned his head, his gaze unreadable as he studied her. “If I lose everything, will you despise me?”“You won’t.”Her voice was steady, unwavering.Not a single trace of doubt.Lucas didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “I’m not omnipotent, you know. Why are you so sure?”Elena didn’t answer right away.Instead, she reached out, trailing her nails lightly over the back of his hand.“You won’t lose.” She said softly.Don’t ask how or why.She just knew it.Lucas’ lips curled up.He leaned forward, burying his face in the curve of her neck.His arms wrapped tightly around her waist. “I’m tired,” he

Louis gritted his teeth. “If you’re calling to gloat, save it.”“Not at all,” Sebastian chuckled. “I’m calling with an opportunity. A…solution to your current predicament.”There it was.Just as Lucas had predicted.The Timeless Group hadn’t struck just to watch them suffer, they wanted something in return.“Meet me at the Grand Meridian Hotel,” Sebastian continued. “Let’s discuss business.”Louis hesitated before replying, “I’ll be there.”At the Grand Meridian Hotel, Louis stepped into the private lounge where Sebastian Blackwood, waited with a glass of whiskey.“Mr. Evans,” Sebastian greeted smoothly, gestur

Dylan wasn’t just setting a challenge, he was testing Lucas.Elena wasn’t just his daughter; she was the CEO of Pristine Enterprise.A position that carried weight, power, and enemies.While he and Yvette had always been her strongest pillars of support, time was uncertain.He didn’t know how long they’d be around to shield her.And Elena, despite her strength, carried too much on her young shoulders.She needed someone who wouldn’t just love her but would stand beside her when the weight of her responsibilities became too much.Someone who could weather storms with her, fight battles without hesitation, and most importantly, someone who would never betray her trust.Lucas had already proven his devo

The one person he never expected to see.Lucas EvansNo. This had to be a mistake.The ghost of the business world, the man who had single-handedly dominated Europe’s market, was none other than Lucas Evans?Lucas strode toward the stage, unfazed by the flashing cameras and murmurs rippling through the crowd.He stepped onto the stage, standing tall beside Miles and Louis.He barely spared Sebastian a glance.The host, suppressing the excitement in his voice, announced, “Ladies and gentlemen, Horizon Group and Evans Corporation will now officially sign the partnership agreement.”A collective hush settled over the room.The contract was placed on the table.Lucas picked up the pen, before signing his n

Originally, he had planned a surprise for Elena.A night just for the two of them.He had intended to whisk her away, somewhere only they knew.But just as he was about to set things in motion, his grandma called, asking him to pick Naomi up from the airport.For a second, he had to process who Naomi was.Then it clicked on him that she was the blonde who paraded around calling herself his friend.His immediate response was a flat-out no.But Helen, being his own grandma, didn’t take rejection well.With her expertise, she launched into full-fledged emotional blackmail.And really, who could stand their ground against an elderly woman wielding guilt like a weapon?And just like that, he postponed his plans and dro

“A surprise?”She nodded. “But I’m sure you’ll like it.”Now, he was intrigued.He didn’t like surprises, but the way she looked at him, the quiet confidence in her tone, made him want to know.Lucas narrowed his eyes, his gaze flickering toward the crowd beyond their private lounge.The energy in the club had shifted.More people poured in, their movements growing wilder, more reckless.Leaning in, his lips brushed dangerously close to Elena’s ear.His voice was low, a quiet warning against the rising beat of the music. “It’s about to get crazier out there. Stay close and be careful.”Elena nodded.Before he could say anything else, the speakers overhead

Elena stood on the open balcony, her arms resting against the cool railing as she gazed at the city lights sprawling beneath her.The dazzling skyline stretched endlessly, yet her mind was elsewhere.The cool air bit at her skin, sobering her up.Lucas had said he’d be back soon.But it had been over half an hour, and he still hadn’t returned.An unsettling weight pressed against her chest, tight and suffocating.Once bitten, twice shy.Her last marriage had crumbled under the weight of betrayal and infidelity.She had sworn never to let herself fall into that abyss again.Yet, no matter how much she tried to silence the thoughts creeping into her mind, doubt slithered in.She didn’t want to be that wo

Every parent wished the best for their child.And Helen was no different.Elena was a good girl, she wouldn’t deny that.But her Lucas was exceptional.He was outstanding in every way.And now, after learning the full extent of his identity as the CEO of Horizon Group, she was even more convinced.Her grandson was destined for greatness.A man like him deserved only the finest things in life, the best of everything.So how could she accept anything less for him?His partner’s presence should elevate him, not drag him into scandal and disgrace.Harold exhaled deeply, his fingers tapping lightly against the armrest.After a moment of silence, he turns to Helen and asks, “Then tell me, what do you suggest we do?”Helen sniffles, dabbing the corner of her eyes with a silk handkerchief.“Naomi is in town,” she says, her voice regaining some strength. “James has already reached out t

Four years later.The snow-covered peaks stretched endlessly, a breathtaking expanse of white under the pale winter sun.“Again!”Ethan laughed, his bright eyes gleaming with excitement.He was bundled in a white ski suit, his tiny gloved hands gripping the ski poles.Lucas crouched beside him, adjusting the boy’s stance with practiced ease.“Feet apart, shoulders steady,” he instructed, his deep voice laced with patience. “And don’t lean too far forward, or you’ll—”Before he could finish, Ethan pushed off, wobbling slightly as he slid down the gentle slope.“—fall,” Lucas muttered, shaking his head as Ethan toppled over into the soft snow.A giggle rang through the air as Ethan flopped onto his back, arms spread wide.As Ethan grew older, his features bore a striking resemblance to Lucas, except for his gorgeous dark blue

Isabella’s lips trembled. “I—I thought—”“You thought?” Helen’s voice cracked, a bitter laugh escaping her. “No, Isabella. You chose. You chose Mike. You chose yourself. And you threw Lucas away again.”Helen’s chest rose and fell with the force of her emotions.Looking at Isabella, she felt nothing but bitter disappointment.“We never blamed you,” Helen said. “Not when you lied about your death. Not when you left your son behind to fend for himself,” she continued, her voice cracking. “And this is how you repay us?”A choked sob escaped Isabella’s lips.She reached for Helen’s hand, but Helen took a step back.“You could’ve asked for help. You could’ve told anyone. But instead, you sold out your own family. Your own grandson.”Helen looked at Isabella with eyes full of grief.“D

“I have lived long enough to witness the rise and fall of generations, but tonight… tonight, I feel truly blessed. This child is not only the blood of our Evans family but the future that will carry our legacy forward.”He turned toward Lucas and reached out his aged hands.Lucas stepped forward, carefully handing Ethan over to his great-grandfather.Harold cradled the child with surprising gentleness, his usually stern eyes softening as he looked down at the tiny face.Under the watchful eyes of the entire Evans family and the influential guests present, Harold personally opened the ancient Evans family record book, an heirloom that had documented the bloodline for centuries.With a brush dipped in ink, Harold carefully wrote down the name Ethan Lucas Evans in bold strokes.The moment the ink touched the paper, it symbolized Ethan’s official entry into the Evans family tree, a position that no one could ever challen

He nudged Elena, who carefully handed the baby over.Everyone watched as Harold’s rough hands, once used to commanding empires and instilling fear, trembled slightly as they cradled the tiny life in his arms.The moment the child settled against him, Harold’s fury melted away.Helen stepped closer, her own hands clasped over her chest as she peered down at the baby. “Oh my God, he’s so handsome.”Harold’s eyes reddened once again.This was the blood of the Evans family…“Look at him,” Harold’s voice cracked. “He’s got the same sharp brows as Lucas when he was a baby.”Lucas’ eyes softened.The little one stirred slightly, his tiny hand clenching into a fist.A faint smile spread across Harold’s face as he gently patted the baby’s chest.“From this day onward,” Harold announced, his voice filled with pride a

ACE’s face immediately turned terrifying.“Winter.” He said warningly. “You’re not allowed to joke about that.”Her heart skipped a beat.No one knew better than her how scary this man was once he got angry.Wrapping her arms around his neck, she rubbed her face against his cheek. “All right, all right. Don’t be fierce.”ACE sighed helplessly.He could make world leaders shut up with a single glance, yet before this woman, he was always at the losing end.No matter how ruthless he was outside, when it came to Winter, he had no bottom line.He let her act coquettishly and turned around. “What do you want to eat?”Winter’s eyes instantly lit up.Her hubby was so good to her.She latched onto his arm without hesitation, her voice filled with excitement as she rattled off a long list of dishes.“…”Jayden, w

Lucas only smiled.Back when he resided in Country K, Lucas had found himself entangled with the Black Vipers, a ruthless underground syndicate known for their brutal dealings in the underworld.To survive and walk out alive, Lucas went undercover as Rocky.He played his role flawlessly, climbing their ranks, gaining their trust, and dismantling their core operations.By the time he left Country K, he thought he had completely destroyed them.Yet, fate proved him wrong.Like cockroaches that thrive in darkness, they waited for the right moment to resurface.Lucas knew their weaknesses.Their hideouts and the fractures in their foundation.The cops knew it, too.That’s why they came to him, not as a suspect, but as an asset.They needed someone who could infiltrate deep, someone with a personal stake in bringing the Black Vipers to their knees.And when the authorities realized the extent of his

Jayden Luxton strode toward them, his sharp gaze sweeping over the scene.Dressed in all black, he exuded the same air of danger and authority as Lucas, but his approach wasn’t hostile.Not this time.“Everything is ready.” He said, giving him a small nod.Behind him, the hospital staff rushed forward, quickly transferring Elena onto a stretcher.As the stretcher started moving, Elena’s fingers slipped from Lucas’.She stirred slightly, her fingers weakly grasping at his sleeve before her strength gave out.The sight nearly shattered him.The stretcher was wheeled straight into the emergency room, disappearing through the doors.The woman, who had been by Elena’s side the entire time, turned to Lucas. “I’ll take care of it.”Before she could enter the operating room, Jayden’s arm shot in front of her.Wariness flickered across his face.The

Elena’s pulse quickened. “What—”“Just do it.” His tone left no room for argument.Ten minutes later, a sharp, piercing scream resounds from inside the bedroom.The guards patrolling rushed inside, and what they saw blew their minds.Elena lay on the cold, hard floor, her body curled in on itself.A dark pool of blood spread beneath her, soaking through her dress.Her face contorted in agony, sweat beading along her forehead as she gasped for air.Before her stood Hunter with his fists clenched at his side.His usually sharp gaze was unfocused, drowning in a drunken stupor.One of the guards cursed under his breath. “What the hell did you do, Hunter?!”Hunter swayed slightly, his movements sluggish. “I just wanted to… wanted to hold her hands. But she wouldn’t let me.”“The baby…” Elena rasped, her lips trembling. &l

Elena’s face turned pale.“Don’t overdo it, Hunter. We can’t afford any accidents before the smuggling.” Reed reminded him.“Relax,” Hunter replied coolly.He grabbed Elena’s chin, his thumb dragging across her cheekbone as he tilted her face left, then right.“Damn. What a pretty face,” he mused, his tone almost appreciative. “That b***ard Lucas really lucked out, huh?”Elena pulled away her face from his grip and glared at him. “Don’t take his name from your filthy mouth.”Hunter sneered. “Touched a nerve, did I?”Elena’s glare was colder than ice.Hunter crouched before her, bringing his face level with hers. “I don’t have a good temper, woman.” Hunter continued, his voice slow, deliberate. “So, if you dare piss me off…”A cold metal suddenly touched Elena’s belly.
