At that moment, a voice interrupted, light and brisk, with a tone that carried undeniable authority. Myla stepped into the room, her presence commanding attention as she raised an eyebrow slightly, her gaze unwavering."Mila!!" Madison gasped, her eyes widening in disbelief as she jumped to her feet."How could this be possible... weren't you..." Sally stammered, her face drained of color. She blinked several times, trying to make sense of the sight before her. It was as if the world had tilted on its axis—how could this woman be here? Wasn't Myla dead?Madison stood frozen, her breath coming in shallow bursts as she stared at the woman before her. The years had clearly been kind to her, and yet, there was an eerie chill in the air that made it hard to believe what her eyes were
Chapter 4: She's back.The pen glided over paper in smooth, deliberate strokes, its faint scratch the only sound in the still room. Fingers tightened briefly around it before resuming their steady rhythm. Lowe’s gaze flicked to the window, where the city lights blinked against the dark. A muscle in his jaw shifted, then stilled, as he returned to the paper, his movements precise yet heavy with unspoken weight.The door creaked open, and Mark, his assistant, stepped in with measured caution. His every movement was calculated, as though he feared one wrong step might trigger an unseen mine.“Sir, you asked to see me?” Mark’s voice was carefully modulated, pitched just right—respectful but not intrusive.Lowe’s hand paused mid-signature, the pen stalling against the paper. The sound of it being placed back on the glass desktop was soft, almost muted, but in the silence, it resonated like a gunshot. Slowly, he raised his head, revealing the face that had become synonymous with power and f
Chapter 3: MylaFive Years LaterIn a bustling restaurant, a woman sat alone in the corner, her presence commanding attention. Her eyes, sharp and calculating, swept the room, and her beauty was undeniable. Despite the soft elegance she exuded, there was something fiercely determined about her—something that made her seem unapproachable, untouchable.This was Mila, though she went by Myla now.Beside her sat a little girl, her legs swinging beneath the table, her eyes wide and bright as she gazed at her mother. The girl’s expression mirrored Mila’s own—sharp, observant, unyielding.The television overhead buzzed with the latest news: “Carson Corp faces a financial crisis. Rumors suggest that Madison Carson, the now heir, may soon marry Lowe Sterling, potentially securing a partnership with Sterling Inc. No official confirmation has been made.”Mila tightened her grip on the chopsticks, her eyes betraying the coldness she felt inside. Five years had passed, and though the mall around h
Chpater 2: Time of DeathHer hands clenched into fists as tears slid down her cheeks. She had lost everything—but she wasn’t going down without a fight.She stood frozen, her hand trembling as it rested over her stomach. The weight of the truth slowly sank in, her thoughts a whirlwind of disbelief. A child… Her child.Her mind drifted back to that night—the warmth, the tenderness that Lowe had shown her, even if just for a fleeting moment. But it felt like a distant memory now, like something that belonged to another time, another life. Since then, she hadn't seen him. He must hate her now. The thought twisted in her gut. How could he not? To him, she was nothing more than the woman who had killed his mother, the woman who had betrayed him, who drugged him and climbed into his bed for her own selfish reasons. And now, standing on the brink of despair, sentenced to death for a crime she didn't commit, the child she carried felt like a cruel twist of fate.But despite the bitterness tha
Chapter 1: This wasn't the End"Kiss me." It was an order.In the dimly lit room, the air was thick and oppressive, the kind that could suffocate you. A deep, gravelly voice whispered near her ear, low and intimate.Mila’s body tensed, and her mind struggled to focus. Everything felt foggy, like she was trying to stay afloat in a dream that wouldn’t end. She wanted to pull away, to resist, but her limbs were sluggish, her strength draining with every second that passed."Don't..." she murmured weakly, her voice barely a whisper. “Please.”The man didn’t answer. Instead, she felt his lips brush her forehead, then her cheek, leaving a trail of heat in their wake. Before she could react, his mouth descended, claiming hers with a kiss that was firm and unrelenting.It wasn’t just a kiss—it was an invasion. He deepened it slowly, savoring her resistance. She gasped for breath, her mind spinning, desperate to escape. But as she tried to push him away, his large hand seized hers, pinning the
