Return of the Heiress: I married my ex-husband's brother Kidnapped
Creak!The door opened, and within a flash, Elena was pushed inside the wardrobe.“Elena? Are you in here?”Elena’s breath caught in her throat as Andrew’s voice drifted into the room.A mischievous grin appeared on Lucas’ face as he observed Elena’s anxious expression.“Say, what would happen if I walked out right now?”Elena’s eyes widened in panic, her mind racing through a thousand worst-case scenarios.Lucas watched her terror-stricken appearance and dropped his forehead against her shoulder, muffling a laugh.“You…” Elena glared at him. “Can you not be so annoying for once?”Rubbing his face in the crook of her neck, Lucas responded. “I can. But you won’t be able to handle the consequences,” he admitted frankly.The tap of footsteps sounded extremely eerie in the silence.Elena glanced towards the closed door, and then back at Lucas.“Please do something,” she pinched his waist.Lucas’ eyes narrowed dangerously at her bold move and vowed to settle scores with her later.Meanwhil

The doors of the boardroom swung open with a sharp creak.Dressed in an immaculate black suit, Lucas entered the room.Everyone present inside sucked in a breath upon seeing the newcomer.Lucas’ presence seemed to cast an invisible pressure over the room as his steely gaze swept across the faces of the board members.A woman, who seemed to be in her fifties, stood up to welcome him.“Mr. Evans, thank you for joining us today.”Lucas remained indifferent as he glanced at the outstretched hand before him.He had no intention of shaking hands with her.Lilian wasn’t discouraged.To her, the mere presence of Lucas Evans at the meeting was a triumph in itself.Today was when the Luxton Corporation, one of the leading business conglomerates in Spring City, was going to elect their new head following the illness of Jayden Luxton, the current CEO of the Luxton Corporation.And in this battle, Lucas was here to support Lilian, Jayden’s stepmother.The fights in the upper-class families had alwa

On a peaceful afternoon, the sun cast its warm glow over the backyard of Serenity Mansion.Lucas relaxed comfortably on a rattan chair, with a fishing rod in hand.As he idled, the click of heels resounded in the tranquil atmosphere.A shadow loomed over and stopped across the sunlit ground.Elena halted her steps, fidgeting as she searched for the right words to discuss with Lucas.Lost in her thoughts, she failed to notice that she was blocking the sun’s rays from reaching Lucas.“You’re blocking the sun,” Lucas pointed out.“Oh! I-I’m so sorry,” Startled, Elena snapped out of her reverie and stepped aside.There was only one vacant chair in the backyard, and Lucas was sitting in it.After a moment of contemplation, Elena settled herself on the edge of the seat.As she faced Lucas, her mind raced with various thoughts, but the intensity of the sun’s rays made her squint uncomfortably.Noticing her discomfort, Lucas reached up and removed his sunglasses.He placed them on Elena’s fac

‘Honey, this dress is not suitable for you. The model wearing it is slim and fair. You, however, are very curvy. Why don’t you look for another piece?’At that time, his words directly cut through her self-esteem.She had dedicated herself to Andrew and his family.Yet they always scorned and ridiculed her in return.A sneer escaped her lips when she thought about it.Andrew Elliot, I’ll make you pay for every tear, every grievance I’ve suffered over the years.She stepped inside her bedroom and closed the door.Her eyes scanned the room, searching for something.With Lucas and Vernon’s help, she could gather all the evidence against Andrew.Some time ago, they even hired a private detective to monitor Andrew’s movements.Lucas had also documented Andrew transferring his assets, ensuring there was concrete evidence to support her case.Now, she just wanted to try her luck and see if she could find more evidence of Andrew’s infidelity that would strengthen her lawsuit.Elena’s hands co

With his hand on her back, Andrew caught the strap of her dress and yanked it open.Rip!Looking at the exposed area, Andrew licked his lips and grabbed her with full force.Bang!A sudden, sharp pain sliced through the back of his skull.His vision blurred, and the world spun around him.Before he could register what was happening, another brutal slap came, and this time, Andrew staggered forward.He barely had time to process the attack before he collapsed to the floor in a sorry state.Silence descended on the room.Elena stood frozen, her body tense and shaking from fear.Her heart pounded violently, and she could feel the remnants of fear clinging to her skin.Then, her gaze fell upon the figure that loomed over Andrew’s prone body.The tall, broad-shouldered man stood like a pillar in a storm.Elena blinked, her vision clearing.Without a second thought, her legs moved before her mind could catch up.She stumbled toward him.In a fluid motion, she threw herself into his embrace

Andrew looked at the blonde woman in a vibrant yellow bikini, who had called out to him.With a teasing smile, the woman leaned toward him.“You only visit once a month now. Are our services not up to your standards?” she complained coyly.A lascivious glint sparkled in Andrew’s eyes, and he leaned in slightly, his arm sliding around the blonde’s waist. “How could that be? No one in the city can compare to your services.”The woman let out a laugh and leaned further, such that her br***s were now touching his arm.“Then why haven’t you visited lately?” she asked while drawing circles on his bare chest.Andrew’s smile shifted into a smug grin.He straightened slightly, his chest puffing out slightly. “I’m going to be the vice president soon,” he said arrogantly as if he’d already claimed the title. “Of course, I have to focus more on work.”The blonde’s eyes widened, and soon the others chimed in.“Woah!” the crowd exclaimed.“Congratulations, Mr. Elliot!”“I can’t believe we’re so luc

Like a thunderbolt, Elena stepped forward.“Andrew,” she said, her voice almost drowned by the noise in the room. “How could you do this to me?”Andrew’s throat lodged.He tried to stop her, but his entire body seemed to have frozen in its place.“I-It’s not what you think. I’m just… I got caught up. It was a mistake. All of this, it was—”“A mistake?” Elena’s voice cracked like a fragile glass. “How is this a mistake, Andrew? It’s a choice. One that you’ve been making repeatedly.”“I trusted you,” Elena continued, the hurt in her voice turning into anger. “I gave you everything. I stood by your side and supported you when you wanted to climb higher. And you repay me by humiliating me like this?”Sensing a shift in the story, the reporters turned their attention to Elena.The cameras clicked furiously, trying to capture this turn of events.“Mrs. Elliot, how do you feel about discovering your husband’s affair in such a public manner?” one of them shouted, their microphone aimed at Ele

‘You should be an actress.’The text message read.The corner of Elena’s mouth twitched as she glanced at the message.She did not reply and shoved the phone into her bag.“Thanks for today. I owe you a big one.” She finally turned to meet Julia’s gaze, who had climbed in beside her.Julia waved a dismissive hand.“No need for the formalities. Just stop treating yourself like a stunt double next time.” She gestured toward the bandage.Elena chuckled softly but did not answer.The road stretched out before her, but Elena remained unmoving.The battle was far from over, but the first strike had landed, and it had landed hard.———The phone on the counter buzzed, cutting through the eerie silence.But no one reached for it.The screen on the phone lit up again, each notification a reminder of the nightmare that had taken place in their lives.‘Elliot family heir Andrew Elliot accused of abuse and infidelity.’‘Rich second-generation heir involved in prostitution.’The headline flashed ac

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.
