Emine closed her eyes tightly. It seemed he hadn't changed, and he would forever be ruthless.Aiden watched as his wife began to fall, a smirk on his face. He had planned this all along. But just as she was about to hit the ground, he lunged forward and grabbed her, pulling her close to him. She looked up at him, shock and confusion in her eyes. "What happened, and why did he save me?" she thought to herself as she felt his grip on her waist."Why would I watch you fall? I am not heartless," she said sarcastically."As if this is something bigger than you," she thought to herself and rolled her eyes.Aiden gently put her in the car and secured her with the seatbelt. He got into the driver's seat and drove her off to her company. The car was silent as Emine didn't want to talk to him, while Aiden didn't know what to say. He didn't know if he was sorry or not. He had made up his mind to change their relationship from ex-wife to wife, but how did he even begin?When they arrived at the c
At Ryan's Office. …"Sir, please Miss Emine called me. She said Sandra has been kidnapped." Ryan's secretary rushed and told him. "She has been kidnapped, by who?" He stood in shock and asked surprisingly. "It is not yet clear, but Miss Emine guessed it was your ex- girlfriend." "My ex- girlfriend, that's not possible. Even though Mirable is stubborn and proud, she wouldn't dare hurt anyone. Why would she kidnap her? Find out how and when she was kidnapped." Ryan instructed and waved his hands impatiently. He loosened his collar and was frustrated. "Sandra, please be safe okay." He mumbled. He knew a person can go crazy for her selfish gains. Shortly his secretary came back with the task he gave him. "Sir, Miss Sandra was kidnapped on her way to the house. Looking at the CCTV footage, she helped an old woman who was carrying a load. She carried the load and followed her, but she didn't return. "I see, the mastermind knew she was a kind lady and wouldn't bear to see an old lady
"I can't stand your face! How dare you try to attract Ryan with those looks? If something happened to your appearance, we'd know if he truly loves you for who you are." She said with a disgusted expression before spitting in Sandra's face. She was still not satisfied.Sandra, who was still tied to a chair, began to feel nervous seeing the sharp blade she held. "Is that so? Ryan's love for me has no boundaries. He doesn't care whether I am beautiful or ugly. All he cares for is for me to be by his side every day." She paused and continued, "Oh, 'Your Ryan,' do I hear you say that? Aren't you ashamed? You cheated on him, gave his baby to someone, and you have the nerve to call him yours?" Sandra was angry; if not for being tied, she would have beaten this girl blue-black."So what if I say he is mine? Are you telling me what to do? You are nothing but a bitch." She slapped her hard on her cheek."A bitch you say? I am beautiful and smarter than you. If I am a bitch, then you are the mo
Amidst the towering cityscape, a chilling scream pierced the air, shattering the tranquility of the afternoon. Ryan had just arrived when he witnessed the heart-wrenching tragedy unfold before his eyes. "Sandra!" he shouted, hoping it was a nightmare he would soon wake up from."Sandra," Emine called out to her sister, but it was too late. She knelt on the floor, her hands shaking, and her eyes suddenly filled with tears. "Sandra, why?" her voice was filled with sadness, the weight of grief heavy on her heart.Ryan was stopped motionless, unable to process what just happened. "How... is that possible? How can you leave me just like that? This wasn't what we promised, Sandra," he knelt down, looked at the floor, and roared, "Sandra why, why must this happen to you?" His voice trembled with pain and disbelief, his heart breaking with each word.Emine wailed while reminiscing about the past, memories of laughter and joy mingling with the present sorrow. "Oh, Sandra, you were my rock, my
Although Aiden was comforted by Grey, that didn't stop him from drinking. He drank until he was drunk."Aiden, let me take you home," Grey said, wanting to help him."No, don't. I have eyes, I have legs, I can walk home," Aiden said and left. Grey was worried about him, so he called Finn. One can say that even though Aiden was drunk, he still looked handsome and not like someone in a mess. He didn't actually appear drunk.Finn helped him, "Take me to my apartment," Aiden said.Finn drove him to his apartment, and when they got there, he told him to go home."But boss, I can't leave you in this state," Finn said in a worried tone."I said leave, do you want to challenge me?" Aiden said with a commanding tone. Finn had no choice but to leave.When Finn left Aiden in his drunken state, he went straight to Emine's apartment."Emine, open the door," he said while knocking."Who dares to knock on my door at such an hour?" Her voice was filled with anger.She quickly walked out to see who it
After Emine had visited Sandra, she went home. She took a bath and inhaled deeply. … Emine's Company. …"Miss, please Mr. Finn is here." "Tell him to come in." "Hello, Miss Emine." "Hello Mr. Finn, please how may I help you. "I'm sorry Miss, I am here for my boss.""What is it?" Emine asked unconcernedly. "My boss is suffering.""So? How does it concern me?Please miss, ever since he came from the hospital, his mood has been bad. He doesn't eat and he is becoming sick.""Can you go straight to the point?" "Can you please pay him a visit, and convince him to get on his feet?" "And do you think I will forgive him?""But he needs to stay alive before you can avenge yourself. Emine looks at Finn in surprise and says, "You want me to go and see him? Please, have you forgotten how much he has hurt me?" "No I haven't forgotten, but right now he is in critical condition and he needs your help." Emine sighed and said, "You know, it's funny that you are here asking for help." "Miss,
Emine received a call from MC, who informed her that Mirabel has woken up."Very good. Before she gets discharged, send her to my basement.""Miss, are you going to hand her to the police?" MC asked curiously."Why would I do such a thing? I am not going to hand her to the police. She needs to be punished," Emine said angrily, having seen how weak Sandra is."Miss, didn't you notice anything odd about Mirabel?" MC tried to figure something out, sensing that something was not right."What is it?" Emine asked, stopping peeling the orange."I don't know, but I felt something off about her.""Really?""Yes, Miss, got it. Mirabel was almost five months pregnant, but there was nothing to show that she is pregnant."Emine fell into deep thoughts on the other end, contemplating MC's observation."Seems like you might be right. We'll find out tomorrow. Send her to the basement," Emine ordered. "Mirabel, you have crossed the line this time.""Ok, boss, but you haven't dealt with Sharon," MC remi
Grandfather, what should we do?" Everly asked in a panic.Her grandfather looked at her sharply and asked, "How did you offend her?""Grandfather, it was just a trivial matter. It was nothing important. She was the one who took the necklace from us, so I decided to teach her a small lesson. I didn't know it would lead me here," Everly replied, telling a white lie. Her sincerity left no space for her grandfather to doubt her."Everly, are you sure of what you're saying? I heard that woman is very formidable. She is the only one who could challenge the Clark company. I knew one day you would end up bringing trouble to this family. Have you seen what your good daughter has brought?" Old Master Harrison scolded Sharon, hitting his walking stick on the ground."I am sorry, grandfather. Let's find a solution, and then after everything is solved, you can punish me," Everly said, bowing her head like an obedient child."Yes, father, Everly is right. Let's find a solution to this problem. We sh
"Okay, I will stay," Aiden agreed to stay.Emine settled everything and called MC when she got out of the hospital. "I was ambushed today, I found the mastermind.""Queen, are you alright?" MC asked with a worried tone."Don't worry, I am fine. But we will have to find out who did it. Wait, you should go to the place where the incident happened; the men have been wounded, so they wouldn't be able to go far. Bring anyone who is alive. I need to interrogate the person.""Okay, Queen, but you will have to go to the hospital to check if you are really okay.""I said I am okay," Emine said and hung up. She set off for the meeting."Your boss was wounded because of me. Please do well to take care of the rest. He might come home in two days," Emine said to Finn."My boss has been admitted?" Finn was surprised. His boss would never accept being in the hospital unless he is in a critical condition. He just told him he wouldn't be able to make it to the meeting. Maybe it might be serious."Whic
Intrigue flared in Emine's eyes as she coolly responded while holding her waist, "And how exactly does that concern me?"Rage surged within the leader, his anger unabated, his words venomous, "You're asking for death, you slut." They had believed she was on their side, but her true intentions had caught them off guard. Now, with their brother incapacitated, the future of their legacy hung in jeopardy.Emine's gaze remained steady, her voice dripping with defiance, "If you're after my life, let's see if you can even get close."The assassins' fury intensified, their leader stalking closer, menace oozing from his presence, "I'll make you suffer beyond imagination..." His hand raised to strike Emine, yet an abrupt scream of pain pierced the air, freezing their actions. "Release me, you bitch!" he howled, even through his agony, finding strength to curse her.Amid his cries, Emine's composed demeanor remained unshaken. "Your pain hasn't dulled your tongue, I see," she remarked, twisting h
Grey chimed in with a thoughtful suggestion. 'Why not take things slow? Instead of jumping ahead, consider paying her a visit,' he advised.Aiden mulled over the idea. 'Visit her at her company?' he asked.Grey shook his head gently. 'No, not at her workplace, but at her home. Given all the times you've come to her rescue, she probably won't hold any grudges.'Aiden's intrigue grew. 'That's not a bad idea,' he admitted.The scene was set on a bustling Monday morning, as Emine geared up for another workday. With Ryan away on business and Sandra the sole presence at home, Emine was caught up in her routine. Sandra, who had been at Emine's place the previous Saturday, piped up, 'Emine, I want to tag along with you.'Emine's response was firm but friendly. 'No, you're staying here to whip up some delicious dishes.'Sandra's pout was hard to miss. 'I'm not your maid,' she retorted.Emine reassured her. 'I know you're not, but how about you be a dear and hold down the fort? I won't be headin
Finn's gaze pierced his boss, as if he were studying a complete stranger. Enn, his boss, had undergone an astonishing transformation."Grey, I need you to swing by the house today," Finn overheard his boss's unexpected request."Hey, what's the deal? Something up?" Grey's surprise was palpable. Aiden seldom reached out spontaneously, especially during work hours.Finn's ears strained to catch the words. His boss was forsaking the office for an offbeat rendezvous at home with a friend."Uh... is," Finn's words stumbled out."Got any troubles?" Aiden inquired, a hint of a smile gracing his lips."Nah, boss, no issues. But we've got that sit-down scheduled with Mr. Steve. You realize how crucial that meeting is, right?""Changed my mind. I just scrapped it. I'm diving into the art of winning my wife's heart. Gotta make sacrifices to woo her, you know? You handle the mess, alright? And here's a bonus for your trouble." Aiden slapped Finn's shoulder genially before exiting.Finn pinched hi
Mrs. Harrison's anguish overflowed, her tears an uncontrollable torrent, yet she stifled the sobs that threatened to escape her lips. The sight before her was unfathomable – a video depicting her own son in captivity, his fate hanging precariously in the balance. The torment etched across his face left her heartrending questions unanswered. "Is this truly my flesh and blood? What unfathomable ordeal has befallen him?" She stood there, bewildered, the video's grip on her soul relentless.Meanwhile, as the haunting footage left the couple shattered, the hospital doors swung open to reveal the medical team emerging from the emergency room. With a heart as heavy as the questions in his mind, Mr. Harriot Harrison rushed forth, desperation etched into every line of his face. "Doctor, please tell me – how is my father?" His voice trembled with a mix of dread and hope.The doctor's gaze carried the weight of sorrow as he met Mr. Harrison's eyes. "I regret to inform you, Mr. Harrison, that desp
Say another word, and I'll throw you out," Emine threatened, leaving MC to silence himself, fully aware of Emine's power.Perhaps MC was onto something; Aiden had been rescuing her lately. But what were his true intentions? Paying him a visit might uncover his motives. She would pay him a visit one day. She can't afford to owe him.They brought Eastwood to the basement, where he was tied to a bed. Five strong men entered, and fear shook him."No, no, Emine, please," he begged, hoping for a miracle, praying for someone to rescue him."Mr. Eastwood, like I said, no torture or hitting. Just giving you what you want," Emine said, holding his chin with a wicked smile."No, no, I don't want anything. Let me go, and I'll stop my family's pursuit. Your grandmother won't be a target again. Please, spare me," Eastwood pleaded sincerely, understanding Emine's ruthlessness. He wished this nightmare would end."Ow," Emine sighed as if pitying him. "Too late now. If you dared to kidnap me, you must
Amidst a whirlwind of playful banter, Aiden cunningly remarked, "Well, alright, my lady," his voice dripping with mischief like honey.But Emine's eyes rolled, clearly not in the mood for games. Bigger fish were to fry - Eastwood was right there, writhing in pain and waiting for her next move.Emine, a blend of defiance and cool determination, shifted her gaze to Eastwood, and with a sly grin, teased, "'Fancy a taste of what I've got, huh Mr Eastwood?"'Eastwood was left bewildered, sensing that things were about to take a dark turn.Then, suddenly, Emine's attention darted to Aiden, catching everyone by surprise with her question, " Are all of your men into men, I mean are any of them gay?" The room fell into stunned silence, her words having hit them like a bolt from the blue.Aiden turned to his men, who all shook their heads, confirming their unwavering loyalty to the ladies. Emine's next words sent shivers down their spines. 'Since your men aren't exploring that realm, leave Eas
Eastwood finally couldn't hide any longer and showed his face. He called his men who tied Emine to the chair."Well, it wouldn't be bad if I can get through your beautiful thighs. You are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. Tonight I am going to have a great feast," he said with a lustful voice as he caressed her soft cheeks."I might be weak, but I will never forgive you if you ever let me go," Emine said in a weak voice."Well, I wouldn't give you the chance either. I might as well not kill you and make you become my sex toy, well that will be a better idea." Aiden rubbed her mouth with his hands. She is very beautiful, even more beautiful than his sister. He had always wished he could have her someday, it seems the heavens were on his side today."You son of a bitch, your company will surely go bankrupt. Even if I die, I will make sure you die along with me. And do you think I will come here alone? I am not a fool," Emine spat on him."Slap, slap, you filthy garbage, how dare
"Who are you and what do you want from me?" With no fear in her voice, she inquired. "It's quite simple, Miss Emine, talk to Mr. Aiden, and your grandmother will be alive." The voice said without showing his face. "Oh, I see, so is Harrison's. What has my grandmother got to do with this? She is not to be blamed for your incompetence." Emine was boiling in anger. "I see, so you actually have the gut to talk back while grandmother's life is still at stake. I think you don't really care about her." The shadow said. "You dare?" Emine roared. "Why don't I dare? A wounded lion will do anything in his power to survive. Harrison's company has been in power for almost a hundred years, why must it vanish in just a month. Isn't it unfair?" You could hear the helpless tone of the one in the darkness. "Well, that wasn't my fault. The Harrison's have forgotten that no matter how strong or how old you are, there is someone stronger than you. You wanted to rely on your power and suppress the we
