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
"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
In a dimly lit room, a man with an emotionless face stood beside a wretched lady, her hands chained on the bed. Blood oozed from her wounded wrists."Why must I abort this child?" the lady inquired with a perplexed look, her voice filled with despair. " For Christ sake, it is your own flesh and blood, Aiden."Aiden sneered at her words, his voice dripping with disdain. "Ain't you shameless to utter such shameless words from a murderer like you. That thing inside you has transformed into a human, and I want it gone within twenty-four hours. You took away the love of my life, and now you want to tie me down with your pregnancy, huh, dream on."Tears streamed down the lady's face as she felt helpless. ".Please, even if you hate me, save our child, Please."But Aiden's coldness remained unyielding. "That thing can never be mine. You're a murderer, and murderers don't deserve to carry my child. I'm sending you to the hospital, and you will abort it. Let it go and join my love. Was she rea
Aiden's intense gaze locked onto the doctor, refusing to waver. The doctor, overwhelmed with regret for his ill-chosen words, simply yearned for the opportunity to escape this man's presence. After all, he was only carrying out his duties. But why did this man stare at him with such piercing intensity, as if he had uttered the gravest of secrets?With his hands still tucked into his pockets, Aiden moved slowly towards the doctor, causing his legs to tremble uncontrollably with each step. The pounding in the doctor's chest felt like the prick of a needle, threatening to pierce his heart at any moment."M... Mr... Aiden," the doctor stuttered, attempting to form words, but before he could finish his sentence, Aiden's grip tightened around his neck."How much did she bribe you?" Aiden demanded, his fingers constricting around the doctor's throat."Cough, cough... She didn't bribe me," the doctor managed to gasp, his words strained and his eyes bulging.Just then, Emine's weak and trembli
"Indeed? Let's hope you survive. We can discuss that later. But for now, you don't deserve to inhabit the same world as decent human beings, Emine. Send my regards to Nora and tell her how dearly I miss her," Aiden smirked, before coldly exiting the ward.Unbeknownst to anyone, a sigh of relief escaped him as he reached the door.Emine had already slipped into unconsciousness, still trapped in agonizing pain.................After regaining consciousness, Emine found herself in an unfamiliar room filled with strange equipment. She instinctively checked her stomach and discovered it was sealed, leaving her bewildered."Where am I?" she murmured, fear creeping into her voice. All she could remember was, she fell unconscious at the cemetery because she was afraid of the chilled wind that blew around her . But how did she end up being here?Suddenly, the door swung open, revealing a man in a white lab coat. His voice was reassuring as he greeted her, "Finally, you're awake."Anxious and
"Keep hiding, Emine. No matter what, I will hunt you down, and you will face the consequences of your actions," he sneered, relishing the thought of the chase."Keep digging deeper. Inform Ella to bring me a cup of coffee," Aiden commanded as his secretary exited the room.Shortly after, a knock interrupted his solitude."Come in," Aiden granted permission."Boss, here's your coffee," the secretary announced, placing the glass on his desk."Wait, stay," Aiden uttered just two words, but his secretary understood his preference. Conversations were not his strong suit, leaving her to wonder if he had someone special in his life.Aiden picked the coffee as he was still glancing through the documents, he took a sip and spit it out. Her secretary heard her boss angry voice, snapping her back to reality."You imbecile! Did you not check the coffee's temperature? Do you want to scald my mouth?" Aiden's roar echoed through the office, startling his coworkers outside."I am sorry boss. But last
...At Emine's Office......In a separate office space, an exquisite lady graced her surroundings, her countenance radiating an air of seriousness. Beside her, her loyal secretary stood patiently, awaiting her every command."Mildred, why did Mr. James suddenly alter his stance?" she inquired, her curiosity piqued."My sincere apologies, madam. It was my fault. When I sent the file to him, he attempted to harass me, but I adamantly refused. He threatened not to sign the documents in retaliation." Mildred recounted the incident to her employer."Oh, how audacious of Mr. James to harass my secretary. You acted admirably. I refuse to stoop to the level of a scoundrel. You may leave," she waved her hand impatiently. As her secretary exited the office, she picked up her phone and dialed a wrong number."I want you to sever the right hand of Mr. James Cook, the CEO of James Company. Make sure it is accomplished by tomorrow," she ordered, her voice cold and detached."Yes, queen," the strange
Aiden, having reached the limit of his patience, stood up to leave. The other shareholders eagerly awaited this moment, unable to tolerate the delay any longer. Their happiness was akin to that of a bride anxiously awaiting her groom's arrival because finally the meeting was going to adjourned. Just as Aiden rose from his seat, the office door swung open, revealing a slender lady with a flawless figure. Her attire reflected her personality, emphasizing her petite frame and shapely body. Her hair flowed freely, long and loosely curled, cascading over her shoulders and down her back. Her eyes were stunning, reminiscent of an autumn lake, and her radiant smile accompanied her apology for being late. Whether it was her beautiful eyes or her luminous smile, the board of directors, prepared to unleash their anger, suddenly found themselves enchanted and pacified. "No problem at all," they responded, waving their hands dismissively. They were captivated by her beauty, each secretly yearning
"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.

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
