The Heir of My Enemy Is My Secret Lover. 106
Chapter 106 - The Weight of Secrets"We really have quite a situation here," Zara commented, turning her attention to the outside through the glass, a mischievous smile on her lips. When she noticed Lavínia clearing her throat in discomfort, she turned to her friend."What are you talking about?" Lavínia asked, pretending not to have heard, but her eyes couldn't hide her curiosity."I get it... I totally get it. How could he use you and now be engaged to someone else?" Zara remarked, her gaze fixed on Zen, who was distracted by his phone."You too?" Lavínia asked skeptically, trying to disguise the jealousy consuming her. "He didn't use me. After all, I’m the married one here, as far as I know. Go over there and make him do something else," she ordered, trying to sound indifferent, though the tension in her voice was evident."Why? It’s been so long since we had a... you know, a distraction? The girls could use a break like this, and what better than to just look and..." Zara trailed

Chapter 107: The Unexpected Rescue.He ended the call, throwing his phone onto the sink with more force than necessary. Then, he composed himself, the white t-shirt clinging to his body, and left the office, forgetting the button-up shirt he had tossed into the sink. He had no idea how much time had passed, but the feeling of emptiness was strange. He put on his blazer, adjusting it over his shoulders, and headed for the elevator.When he reached the parking lot, Valmont was waiting, leaning against his car, his expression impassive.“What are you doing? Making sure I don’t run away?” Zen asked, irony evident in his voice.“You know, I’m responsible for making sure you fulfill your missions. And your obligation right now is to attend your engagement party,” Valmont replied, fixing his gaze toward the elevator, where three people had just stepped out. Zen turned to look at them.“Looks like wherever I go, she’ll be there,” he murmured, averting his gaze. “At least I won’t see her at th

Chapter 108 - A Masked PresenceLavínia didn’t get a look at the car, just like Samuel, who seemed indifferent to knowing who was living in the mansion next door."Why are you so interested in knowing who it is? Are you wondering if it’s some rich young guy?" Samuel asked, drawing her gaze, which showed no reaction."Are you implying that I’m after a rich man? That doesn’t make any sense." Zara retorted, her voice laced with irony."Why are you two even arguing?" Lavínia asked, confused, noticing the tension between them. They quickly changed the subject to cover it up.There was still half an hour before the party when Zen arrived at the Romanov mansion. The living room had only a few guests, so he sat down on the couch, leaning back with a discreet groan of pain."Is Jenner here already?" he asked Valmont, who was standing nearby, observing the room."She’ll arrive with her parents. There will be quite a few important people here tonight, and your identity won’t be a secret to the m

Chapter 109 – A Dangerous Dance"I didn't just see it. When you went upstairs, I followed you and even covered for you when you entered the room with that woman.""What do you mean?" he asked, confused."Your father wanted to know where you were going and told me to go up and keep an eye on you. Let's just say he wants me to tie you down at any cost, and I wouldn’t mind trying. He even suggests that I should get pregnant as soon as possible. What do you think?""Is that what you want?" he asked, his gaze sharp."Actually, the night you spent with Lavínia was with me. And he hopes I managed to get pregnant that night.""What are you up to?""You owe me a night and a baby," Jenner said with a defiant look."I don't owe you anything. After all, you shouldn't have covered for me.""And caused a scandal? What you did before this wedding doesn't matter, but I really want to marry you. And not just because of my parents' pressure anymore," she confessed."Jenner... I told you, I have no eyes

Chapter 110 – Hidden TensionsLavínia grew more anxious with each passing minute of the dance, especially with Romanov’s hands on her. Her tension built up until Samuel approached them.“I believe I can steal our hostess for a dance, right?” Samuel asked with a polite smile.Lavínia nodded subtly, smiling discreetly as she stepped away from Romanov, leaving him frustrated. He was forced to release her, well aware of the numerous eyes watching them at the party.“Thank you...” Lavínia sighed softly as Samuel led her across the ballroom.“He still seems to be in love with you,” Samuel teased, casting a quick glance at Romanov.“We’ve been at a different level for a long time. The only thing he could possibly want for me now is death.”“You might not be wrong. Still... you’ve drawn quite a bit of attention.”“Yes. I need you to help me with something before everyone finds out who I really am.”“Most of them already know. The one who doesn’t is your lover,” Samuel remarked seriously, lean

Chapter 111 – The Poison of BetrayalShe stealthily followed the door to the room, approaching carefully until she heard a child’s cry for help:“Please, leave my older brother alone!”“What are you doing, Jenner?” Lavínia asked as she entered the room, shocked by the scene.“Please! She wants to hurt my brother!” the boy cried, clutching Jenner’s dress, but she pushed him away with a rough gesture.“Stay away from me! I’m not doing anything! I just want my fiancé back!” Jenner shouted, moving toward Zen, who lay sprawled on the floor, struggling to keep his eyes open.On the bed, a woman who had seemed to be asleep began to stir, groggy, trying to understand the commotion around her.“Jenner, what did you do to him?” Lavínia demanded, moving closer to Zen. He was trying to sit up but was so disoriented that he could barely move.“Nothing much! You all need to stop interfering in our lives! For your information, he’s my fiancé! And you…” Jenner’s eyes burned with fury as she pointed a

Chapter 112: The Storm Unleashed"Just close your eyes and pretend you're asleep," Mery whispered to the boy trembling beside her, clinging to her as if she could shield him from the world."Is he going to hit you because of that woman?" his voice came out shaky as he buried his face in her chest."Don't worry, it's nothing that hasn't happened before," Mery forced a smile, but the fear in her eyes was as evident as the sound of heavy footsteps echoing down the corridor, drawing closer.The door burst open, and the room seemed to shrink under the overwhelming presence of Romanov, followed by a small entourage. Jenner stormed in right after, dramatically pointing at the woman lying on the bed."This woman hit me!" she accused, her voice laced with false indignation.Mery remained motionless, eyes shut, breath held, feigning deep sleep."How could she have attacked you?" Romanov asked, crossing his arms and fixing Jenner with a cold stare. "She's under the effects of sedatives.""You th

Chapter 113: The Breaking Point“What are you saying, you crazy woman?!” Barbara screamed, stepping back, her eyes wide in shock.“What is going on here? I want a clear explanation before I decide what to do with you.” Mr. Romanov said, his voice low but laced with menace.Jenner shifted uncomfortably, her hands trembling as she tried to maintain her composure.“It... it was your wife who gave me the idea to give Cedrick the aphrodisiac to...” She bit her lips, stopping, the embarrassment evident.“Why don’t you go ahead and tell him the whole truth?” Barbara taunted, a cold smile playing on her lips.“Mr. Romanov, let’s speak civilly.” Jenner’s father, Mr. Klaus, intervened, his voice cautious. “Remember, my daughter might be in the early stages of pregnancy, and this woman almost made her lose the baby.”“That’s a lie!” Barbara exploded, her voice sharp, leaving Klaus speechless. “She claimed she spent the night with Cedrick, but it’s all a farce! That night, he was with another wom

The Heir of My Enemy Is My Secret Lover. 167: The Final Chapter
Chapter 167: The Final Chapter"This is so strange..." she murmured to herself, as if everything were upside down, or as if it were a dream. She simply stepped back and sat in the chair with her daughter in her arms.Lavínia felt her heart racing as she held the little girl. It still felt like a distant dream, an illusion her mind had created to ease the pain of the past few years. But there she was: soft skin, golden curls, and eyes that resembled Cedrick’s, yet held the same intensity Lavínia saw in the mirror."Mommy..." the little girl murmured, stretching out her tiny hands to touch Lavínia’s face. Instantly, tears streamed down Lavínia’s cheeks, uncontrollable."You called me..." Lavínia whispered, but her voice broke midway through the sentence, overwhelmed by emotion.Cedrick stepped closer, resting his hand on her shoulder, his eyes filled with something between tenderness and guilt."She already knows you, Lavínia. I made sure of it. Every night, when she asked about you, I

Chapter 166: The Unexpected ReunionShe began watching the recordings. The cameras had been installed on the same day she was admitted to the hospital, and as soon as the footage started playing, her eyes filled with tears. Cedrick himself had installed the cameras."I knew it… You were there. You never truly abandoned me!" she murmured, unable to hold back her tears.She fast-forwarded the video, watching as he cared for her every day, tending to her skin, her nails, her health. But the more she advanced through the recordings, the more something unusual caught her attention. Everything started to become clear. She sped up the video even more, noticing her growing belly until she realized, she had been pregnant. But she never got to see the child. The last footage of Cedrick showed him on his knees, crying at the foot of the bed, as if something terrible had happened. She fast-forwarded a bit more, but there was nothing else. After that moment, he stood up, kissed her face, and left

Chapter 165: Until the Last SecondSamuel stopped in front of the door but hid, observing the two women through the small gap. He was surprised by Zara’s condition and how pale she was, but at that moment, he only wanted to listen to their conversation."I've been waiting for you all this time," Zara said with difficulty, while Lavínia kept her distance, watching her."I'm sorry for what I did to you...""No one knows what I really discussed with that man the day the accident happened," Lavínia interrupted, and Zara fell silent. "Why didn’t you open up to me? Why didn’t you tell me he was forcing you to do it? He told me he wanted to kill me once and for all, but you said you would do it. You could have told me, and... you know that, in the name of our friendship, I would have done everything to save you. But you chose the worst option. If you were hurt by me, you shouldn't have gotten close to me and deceived me. I truly believed in you as my best friend, the only one who was ever so

Chapter 164: Awakening and Unanswered QuestionsAnother month had passed. As always, Ronald went every morning to perform Lavínia's routine examinations. It had been a week since Samuel had finally returned, and he was now staying at the hospital, catching up on everything that had happened."I still don't understand. Why did he leave like that, just out of nowhere?" Samuel asked, confused."I don't know either... He was just exhausted. He spent months taking care of her, and as soon as she stabilized, he left. Supposedly, he needed to rest.""Maybe… But I really didn’t think he would be that kind of person. He promised he would stay with her until the end," Samuel said, disappointed. Ronald only pressed his lips together and sighed."Can you keep this a secret? Can you not tell her about the time he was here with her?""But… How am I supposed to do that? She will definitely feel hurt knowing he didn't care.""Just do it. Tell her he disappeared and left. How do you think she’ll feel
The Heir of My Enemy Is My Secret Lover. 163: The Silent Farewell
Chapter 163: The Silent FarewellThree months had passed with great difficulty. Lavínia's pregnancy was becoming increasingly complicated. These had been the hardest months for Cedrick and also for Ronald, Lavínia’s doctor and friend. Both were exhausted and had dark circles under their eyes, the result of the many relapses she had suffered and the repeated threats of miscarriage."Prepare yourself for what might happen," Ronald warned apprehensively."I won’t prepare because I’m not going to lose either of them. You’ll make sure of that, right?""How many times can she hold on to the baby? And for how long? She won’t make it! You have to choose. If this pregnancy continues, you could lose both of them!" Ronald stated firmly."I’m not ready… There’s so little time left until she reaches seven months… They’re both holding on! Please… Don’t give up on them. Lavínia will wake up… She won’t carry another burden like this.""As a doctor, I’m only looking out for her well-being. If she does
The Heir of My Enemy Is My Secret Lover. 162 - A Promise Kept
Chapter 162 - A Promise KeptZara remained silent for a few seconds before pointing to a notepad and pen. Cedrick handed them to her, and she wrote down an address. As soon as he took the paper, he rushed out of the room. Leaving the hospital behind, he called Valmont, who was closer to the indicated location.When he arrived, the place was already surrounded by police cars and an ambulance waiting nearby."I came as fast as I could," Valmont informed him just as the gates were broken down, no one had come to open them."Supposedly, everyone must have left and abandoned her," Cedrick commented, running inside, feeling the weight of the situation and fearing it was too late.Mery was found in an improvised hospital room. She had been there for three days without medical assistance. The house had been abandoned all that time, and her skin was pale, her lips cracked from dehydration."She’s still alive!" one of the paramedics announced as they placed her on a stretcher to rush her to the

Chapter 161: A Second Chance“She could stay in this state for years, but there’s another problem, and I didn’t want to tell anyone except you.”“What’s happening?”“Come more often and stay by her side. Maybe it will help her, and who knows… with a lot of luck, your daughter might survive too.” He explained, trying to contain the tension.“What do you mean? Are you saying she’s pregnant?”“Three months along. We performed some detailed ultrasounds, and… it’s a girl. But she might not have a chance to survive. And even if she does, early pregnancy is very delicate, and she… she might be born with some complications due to what happened.”“Wait… You’re telling me she’s carrying our child? Me, her, and… a baby?”“That’s right. Still, both of them are at risk of not waking up. I haven’t told anyone else about the pregnancy to avoid further distress. But you are the father of the child she carries, and you deserve to know, because now, they only have you.” He warned, then left, leaving Ze

Chapter 160: The Unexpected Betrayal"Of course, I know. I found a will in Dimon's email. He was handling a rather peculiar contract, but I only found an unsigned copy. Romanov was well-prepared.""What did it say?""At this very moment, all of Romanov's assets, including Alpha Corp, have already been transferred to another ownership. But no one knows to whom.""What are we going to do?""Keep working until everything starts to collapse," she said indifferently.She said goodbye to Samuel and headed to the parking lot. Getting into her car without a care, she started driving. Suddenly, she noticed a shadow rising from the back seat. The man was wearing a hat, but he quickly removed it."You scared me!" she murmured, slamming on the brakes. "HR manager, Axel? What are you doing here?" she asked, trying to open the door, only to realize it was locked."I thought you'd want to see me again," he commented, taking off a wig and peeling away a second skin that concealed his true face.At th

Chapter 159: The Courtroom’s Final Verdict“What is she talking about?” people whispered in confusion as Lavínia organized the papers on the table.“Ladies and gentlemen, the court has a solemn duty to ensure that justice prevails, regardless of circumstances or the power of those involved. The case before us today is a clear example of how the truth can be distorted by hidden interests and manipulations.”Lavínia’s voice was firm, echoing throughout the courtroom.“Initially, all the evidence pointed to Cedrick Romanov’s conviction for serial murder. For days, we analyzed testimonies, documents, and evidence presented by the prosecution. Given this information, this court was inclined to sentence the defendant to 30 years in a maximum-security prison.”She paused, looking directly at the audience before continuing:“Yes, I said ‘was’.”Viktor Romanov lost the gleam in his eyes at that moment. He knew this wouldn’t end here. Lavínia’s gaze on him was like a sharp blade, declaring that
