141. Getting to know who Jensen Grimes really is

Lilian POVThe warm water fell gently on my skin, and I allowed myself to take a deeper breath. It was the only time I could put the worries of the day aside, even for a few minutes. The smell of soap in the air and the feeling of relief as I let go of all the tension was comforting, but somehow I couldn't escape my thoughts. After turning off the shower, I wrapped myself in the towel with automatic gestures. I looked in the mirror and stared at myself for a few seconds, trying to process the conflicting feelings that were arising. The party, the discomfort, the moment he walked away without even saying goodbye... All of that left me with an emptiness in my chest. I still felt a pang of longing for him, but I didn't know what to do with it anymore. I left the bathroom and headed towards the children's room. As I approached the door, I could hear their voices, little laughs and screams of excitement. I peeked through the crack in the door. "I said it! The dragon will win!" Ruby sa

142. The truth

Lilian POVI was still stunned. Olivia's words echoed in my mind like incessant echoes, but it was impossible to organize them. They felt like pieces of a puzzle that refused to fit together, leaving me in a state of absolute confusion. I didn't know what to do with that information. I didn't know how to react. What she had just told me was so big, so unexpected, that it seemed impossible to process. Jensen. He had been responsible. He had brought those women, those influential figures who changed everything, at the opening of my studio.My heart was racing, and my mind couldn't stop going back to that day. Now, upon hearing the truth, I felt like I was reliving every detail, every emotion as if it were yesterday. It was as if a curtain had been pulled back, revealing something I had never noticed before. And yet, at that moment, months ago, I had no idea. All I saw was the chaos that consumed my mind.The inauguration had been one of the most tense days of my life. From the early ho

143. Don't stop talking, I beg you

Lilian POVThe cell phone shook in my hands as I pressed it to my ear, waiting for Jensen to answer. The ringing sound seemed endless, every second an eternity. When his voice finally came, relief coursed through my body. "Lilian?" he said, his voice deep and heavy with familiarity. "Jensen… hi." My voice was hesitant, almost shy, as if it were the first time we had spoken. "Everything is fine?" He looked worried. "Yeah, I just… needed to talk to you." I took a deep breath, trying to find the right words. He sighed, and I imagined his soft smile. "I needed to talk to you too. I'm in the car right now. Heading to your house." "Are you coming here?" My surprise was evident. "Yes. We have a lot to talk about, Lilian. About Rome… about everything." I swallowed hard, feeling my heart speed up. "I want to talk about this too. There are so many things I want to say." "I know." His voice was gentle, but there was an underlying tension that kept me alert. "And honestly, I'm l

144. Tension

Lilian POVI was in a panic. My hands shook as I pressed the cell phone to my ear, repeatedly calling Jensen. "Please, Jensen, answer… talk to me!" My voice was choked, and my eyes were teary. But nothing. No response. "My God…" I whispered, feeling a knot forming in my stomach. I knew. Likewise, I knew something terrible had happened. The kids were in the room, and I needed to get myself together for them. I took a deep breath, trying to hold back the tears, but my thoughts were out of control. What if it was serious? What if… no, I couldn't think of the worst. Still holding the phone, I sat for a moment, trying to collect my thoughts. It was as if the world had gone silent, except for the sound of my own racing heartbeat. It was then that the cell phone vibrated. A call from an unknown number. I answered immediately, my voice shaking with anticipation and fear. "Mrs. Smith?" a male voice asked, too formal and calm for my taste. "Yes, it's me," I replied in a shaky voice.

145. He needs me

Lilian POVWhen I opened my eyes, the soft light of the room bothered me, and I felt the weight of tiredness in every part of my body. My heart skipped a beat when I realized where I was. The smell of antiseptic in the air and the distant sound of machines confirmed: I was still in the hospital. For a moment I tried to sit up, but the dizziness hit me like a wave, and I sat back down. A low, worried voice caught my attention. "Lilian? Are you awake?" I slowly turned my face and saw Giana, my mother-in-law, sitting next to the bed. She looked as dejected as I felt. His eyes, normally bright and determined, were swollen and red. "Giana," I murmured, my voice hoarse. "What happened? Why am I here?" "You fainted," she replied, her voice shaky but still carrying firmness. "The nurse said it was a drop in blood pressure... probably because of the scare. And, of course, because you're pregnant." My hand instinctively went to my belly. The baby. My heart sank thinking about the da

146. A breath of relief

Lilian POVThe silence in the hospital waiting room was almost deafening. Every sound seemed amplified: the ticking of the clock on the wall, the rustling of papers, the distant voices of doctors and nurses coming from nearby hallways. I was lying in the hospital bed, my hands clasped in my lap, clutching them tightly, trying to contain the wave of guilt and fear that was rising inside me like a tide about to swallow me. The revelation that Jensen's accident could have been caused made me uneasy. I couldn't stop thinking about who might want to hurt him. The idea that someone deliberately caused this seemed like an endless nightmare. "That doesn't make sense," I muttered, more to myself than anyone else. Chuck, Jensen's father, sitting next to me, sighed deeply. He had his arms crossed, and his gaze seemed lost in space. "Lilian, Jensen has a lot of enemies," he began, "The business world is a battleground. Believe me, there are people who would do anything to take down someone

147. Manipulation

Kate POV "You're completely out of control, Finn!" I shouted, anger brimming in every word. "How could you cause Jensen's accident? How could you be so reckless?" Finn was leaning against the wall, with his arms crossed and that arrogant smile on his face. He didn't seem shaken at all, on the contrary, he seemed to enjoy my anger. "Ah, Kate, you're always so dramatic," he replied in a dismissive tone, shaking his head as if I were a child. Without thinking, I slapped him hard across the face. The sound of impact made my heart beat faster, but Finn didn't move an inch. He touched the spot where the slap had landed, as if assessing the intensity of the blow. "Do you really think this will affect me?" he asked, looking straight at me, his eyes cold and calculating. "Are you saying that after you caused an accident, Finn?" I could hardly believe what I was hearing. "You crashed Jensen's car, made him crash into a pole, and now you're telling me it doesn't matter?" "It's not l

148. The charming Micah

Sadie POV "Sadie, Mom said she was going to be back quickly, but she's not back yet," Ruby said, sitting on the couch with her pillow pressed against her chest. Her eyes were teary, and she looked at me as if she expected me to have all the answers. I crouched down in front of her, trying to maintain a calm tone. "My love, sometimes mom takes a little longer because she needs to sort out important things. But I promise she's fine, and she'll be here with you soon, okay?" "But why didn't she say goodnight?" Ryan asked, wiggling his little fingers nervously. "She always says so!" "She was in a hurry, darling. She had to take care of adult things. But you know what? While she takes care of that, I'm here to take care of you. We're going to have fun." "But it's not the same," Rory muttered, crossing her arms and making a face. I sighed and ran my hand through his hair, messing it up slightly. "I know, champ. It's not the same. But how about we do something really fun until she

149. He needs me

Lilian POV“He needs you now, Lilian.” The voice of Giana, Jensen's mother, echoed in my mind. It wasn't a plea or a request, but a truth that she and her husband seemed to carry in their eyes. Sitting next to Jensen, I observed his serene, but so pale, face. The surrounding machines made soft sounds, but to me, they were as loud as the weight of guilt I felt. "Keep it," they had said.Those words weighed heavily on my heart. I always knew Jensen was strong, the kind of person who never hesitated to help me, but seeing him in that vulnerable state made me realize how much I needed him too. The night seemed endless. I sat in the chair next to the bed, my fingers lightly intertwined with his. Jensen was still breathing with the help of the machines. His hair was messy, but he still looked so… Jensen. “Do you remember when it was my turn to be here?” I whispered, my voice breaking. “You stood by me, even when I didn't think anyone should care about me.” I laid my head next to h

150. How disturbed is he?

Lilian POV "Hi, Lilian."Finn's voice reached me as a familiar whisper, but at the same time distant, as if the space between us had increased. He was there, standing, with his arms crossed and that crooked smile on his face. But deep down, his eyes held something more—something I wasn't sure I was ready to face."Finn…" I approached slowly, not really knowing what to say. What was he doing here? "How are you? What happened to you? That wound above your left eyebrow?"He took a step forward, his eyes never leaving mine. "Ah, that? It was nothing; I'm fine, but the question is: what about you? How are you, Lilian?" He looked at me carefully, as if he were really worried. “I’m… well, as good as possible.” The smile I gave was small, forced. I looked to the side, trying to control my nerves. “And what are you doing here, Finn? In the hospital?” He sighed, his gaze softening. “I was worried about you. After everything that happened, you weren't responding to my messages, and I knew you
