Chapter 131

Dawn of the unexpectedCeline's POVWalking up the staircase, my steps quickened as a wave of irritation rose in me. How could Henry even think of inviting Harry he barely knew to stay over? It was simply too much to ask, and I was beginning to regret ever agreeing to let him come over. I realised I might have done it to make Henry happy, but it felt like a mistake now.When I reached his door, it was closed, and as I tried to unlock it, I realised it was locked from the inside. My heart both rose and sank at the same time. This was the first time Henry had locked himself in his room, and a slight worry crept up my spine as I called out to him."Cutie, it's Mum. Please open up," I said, but there was no sound of movement from inside. I pressed my face against the door, feeling pain and worry wash over me."Cutie," I called again. This time, I heard him approach, and the door opened slightly. Before I could enter, he had already laid back down on the bed, burying his head in his pillow

Chapter 132

EscapeI quickly turned on the engine of my car, fury settling in as I drove away from the company without sparing a glance at Levi, who was calling out with concern. All that mattered was confronting that scumbag, Harry. I’d already called the police to have him arrested, but I needed to vent my anger, to lash out every bit of frustration that had settled deep within me. The pain of such a shocking revelation shredded my heart as I struck the steering wheel over and over again.I knew I had little experience driving and that it was dangerous to do so in such an emotionally drained state. Yet, the more I tried to compose myself and focus, the more frustrated I became. It hurt deeply that this same Harry, who had recently tried to worm his way back into my son’s life—the same man who had made my life a living hell—was actually the one responsible for my father’s death. How cruel, heartless, and inconsiderate could he be?In the depths of my shattered heart, I knew Harry felt nothing fo

Chapter 133

A kiss with the pastHarry's POVMy heart was a mix of uncertainty and confusion as she continued hurling insults at me. For once, I couldn't understand why she was calling me a murderer. Was it something from my past she was referring to? As far as I knew, I had long since stopped those activities and had no desire to return to that life of uncertainty and atrocities."How? Why are you calling me names?" I managed to ask, my expression masked in confusion."How dare you pretend you don’t know what I’m talking about, you pathetic excuse of a man?" she snapped, her venomous voice echoing across the room.I huffed, "I stopped being the bad guy you used to know a long time ago. Can you please tell me why you still choose to treat me with such hatred for the wrongs I did to you?" I asserted, my heart already sinking, the joy and excitement dissipating.She rolled her eyes at me disapprovingly. "What am I even doing here, talking with such scum? The police will do their job," she snapped,

DreadJack's POV"Don’t tell me that! You know how much effort we put into this, and it just got ruined?" I snapped, my brows furrowing in frustration. "It was a simple task: crash her in that vehicle, escape to the other street, and switch cars to cover your tracks. That way, no one would know who orchestrated the accident. Simple. And you just messed up the whole plan." I slammed my hands against the bar, my voice laced with anger, frustration settling in my heart."Boss, we’re sorry, but the way everything went down was just… unexplainable. You know how professional we are in this game, but this was different. It all happened in a blink, like we saw another obstruction just as her car stopped and the truck veered off to the opposite street. I still can’t process how it all happened," he tried to explain, but my patience was already razor-thin."Spare me the excuses," I snapped, slamming my hand hard on the armrest. He jumped, his legs trembling as I closed the space between us in t

Chapter 135

Wavering truth Celine's POVMy heart melted as I stood in disbelief, watching Henry pleading on his behalf, pulling him over to play alongside him. I loved seeing my son happy and would do anything to make sure that joy wasn't taken away from him, but not when it came to Harry. It was so aggravating to remember what he had done and to think I nearly lost my life because of how I felt about him; it was just too much to add.I felt the urge to reveal the extent of the damage this man sitting next to him, the one who called himself his dad, had caused. But then I restrained myself, my mouth agape. He was just heartless, sitting next to Henry after eliminating his granddad in cold blood. It would have been a privilege for Williams to have lived a little longer, to know I existed, and to see the face of his grandson. But all of that was dashed to pieces because of Harry—the dreaded mafia leader, as Leonard had confessed.I remembered shouting at the top of my voice, “Ahh! Is that true? Th

Chapter 136

PartnershipHarry's POVStunned by her expression after the call, which looked as if someone had orchestrated an accident, my thoughts drifted to countless clues surrounding the incident. Without minced words, I knew it was Jack's handiwork, but what wasn't certain was why she had escaped the incident and why she didn’t disclose it to anyone upon her arrival. I remained seated, allowing Henry to approach her when he asked.Her mood seemed much calmer when her son walked up to her and inquired about the accident, to which she simply said she was fine. I stayed still, my thoughts wandering to a particular scenario that I couldn’t piece together yet. Someone had told her about William's death, and then she came home alone, angry and ranting. That alone explained why she had driven by herself in such a distressed state, ultimately leading her into the trap. I didn’t need a soothsayer to tell me Jack was involved in all of this. After all, he was the one who had a rivalry with Celine. But

Chapter 137

Make me yoursCeline's POVI knew he would think I let him into the plan because I had feelings for him—no, never. That was exactly why I had to clear the air and set him straight about whatever plans he might have.Alloy had suggested this and I kept convincing myself that this was for the game plan, and nothing more.My thoughts drifted to the text message I had received just minutes ago, and I knew it was from none other than Leonardo. He had told me that Harry was the killer. But why would he lie if the real killer wasn’t Harry, especially if his men had arrived just minutes later, as the text described? Something wasn’t right, and someone was behind it. Could it be Jack? I knew he had been planning his own mission in secret. What was the connection in all this? I marveled.My thoughts were conflicted, but I was determined to unravel every bit of information I needed. The throbbing in my head intensified, ringing in my ears like thousands of drumsticks. My hands clutched my head t

Chapter 138

ScandalsThe blaring sound of the alarm clock kept ringing, and for a moment, I felt like turning it off, slamming my hands onto the pillow, and covering my ears in frustration. But I couldn’t suppress the longing to stay back in bed as I drifted off from sleep, reluctantly pulling myself up to sit on the edge of the bed.I couldn’t believe it was morning already. The throbbing sensation I’d felt the previous day seemed slightly eased. Hanging my head in my hands, I yawned, about to climb out of bed and head to the washroom, when a notification popped up on my phone. I reached for it, hesitating, but dropped it back onto the bed, rubbing my eyes and still feeling a bit of reluctance.Storming into the washroom to refresh, the cool water from the shower sent a chill down my spine, slightly relieving the nausea and the slight throbbing in my head. After I finished, I quickly sauntered out and dressed for the day. It was going to be hectic at work, and I believed Harry should be up and l

Chapter 139

His best sideThe media was outside, and stepping out in such a state would only reinforce everyone’s belief that these scandals were true. It hurt to be in this position, where I had no idea how to make things right. My years of hard work and dedication couldn’t just go down the drain like this."Dear, your temperature is high," he says, sitting next to me, feeling my forehead with his palm, but my body stiffens."Are you still thinking?" he asks."How did it go?" I manage to ask instead once I can compose myself."All fine," he announces, his face slightly contorted in a frown."What's wrong?" I ask."Nothing, just a little heartbroken that all this is happening to you. The fact that I'm still here in your house is, at least, an advantage." He reaches for the glass of water on the table. "Now take a little sip; it will help calm your heart.""No," I declare, but his gentle persistence wins, and I give in, leaning forward to take a small sip, hoping for a tiny shimmer of hope at the

Chapter 140

Falling apartJack's POV“How dare you think you can act smart? Huh, answer me!” I bellowed in anger, landing another punch that sent him sprawling onto the tiled floor. He looked like a mess, and I doubted if he could survive any more of the blows and beatings.He remained silent and motionless as I glared mercilessly at his fading form. He thought he could act smart, but thanks to one of the men who caught him right on time, the critical message didn’t reach Celine. My heart seethed even more intensely as I realized the damage it would have caused if the information had been leaked.Just then, he stretched his weak body, coughing profusely. My heart seethed even more.“Take him to the chambers and lock him up there,” I instructed, turning over to sit on the couch. “Such a miraculous escape,” I muttered under my breath. I stayed with that thought throughout the night, wondering how she would feel if she knew that Harry wasn’t the actual killer. This wasn’t how I’d planned it to go. I
