"Ryan," Mrs. Rose called, "when are you getting married to Bella?""Getting married to who?" Ryan asked, incredulous. "I'm only responsible for the child, not Bella. I can't marry Bella."Bella's eyes went dim and cold at Ryan's words."Don't dare me, Ryan. Don't. You will have to marry Bella and take care of her, and that's final. What is this I heard about you almost choking her to death? Are you mad, Ryan? Do you want to kill a pregnant woman?" Mrs. Rose barked."Get married to Bella or have me to deal with," she said.Ivy looked at Bella, a deep-seated dislike brewing within her."I won't and can never marry Bella, and that is final. My wife is still out there missing, and you are asking me to marry Bella? Mum, do you even have a heart?" Ryan asked, his voice filled with pain."Mind your tone and how you speak to me, young man I won't warn you again," Mrs. Rose said."You might as well take Bella to live with you if you don't want me to kill her anytime soon," Ryan said, leaving the

Ryan, Luca, and Ivy spent the next few hours formulating a plan. They knew they couldn't go to the police Victor had connections everywhere. They needed to handle this themselves."I'll make the exchange," Ryan said. "But we need a backup plan in case things go wrong.""I'll follow from a distance," Luca suggested. "If anything goes south, I'll be there to help.""And I'll keep digging for more information on Victor," Ivy added. "We need to know what we're up against."Ryan nodded. "Alright. Let's do this."The following evening, Ryan stood in a deserted warehouse, the documents in a briefcase by his side. His heart pounded in his chest as he waited. Luca was hidden nearby, ready to intervene if necessary.A car pulled up, and a man stepped out. He was tall, with a scar running down his left cheek. "Mr. Kendrick, I presume?" the man said, his voice cold."Yes. Do you have Iris and her mother?" Ryan asked, trying to keep his voice steady.The man smirked. "They're safe, for now. Do y

Inside the hospital, Ivy sat by Ryan's bedside, holding his hand. Mrs. Rose entered the room, her face a mask of concern."How is he?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper."The doctors say he'll recover. But Mom, who would do this? Why?" Ivy asked, tears streaming down her face.Mrs. Rose's eyes darkened. "I don't know, but I will find out."Suddenly, the door burst open, and Bella stormed in, her face twisted with anger."What the hell happened?" she demanded, looking at Ryan's unconscious form."He was shot while looking for Iris," Ivy explained, her voice trembling.Bella's eyes narrowed. "This is all because of that whore. If he hadn't been obsessed with finding her, none of this would have happened."Mrs. Rose's temper flared. "Watch your mouth, Bella. Ryan is fighting for his life because of this, and you dare to blame him?"Bella scoffed. "He needs to forget about Iris and focus on what's important. Like our baby."Mrs. Rose's eyes blazed with fury. "Get out, Bella. Now.

Chapter 64Flashback to Ryan's 30th Birthday*****************"It’s going to be your 30th birthday soon, son. When are you going to get married? I wasn’t even up to your age when I got married," Mr. Kendrick had said to Ryan, his tone firm."Dad, I’m not ready to get married. I need to find true love, if that even exists," Ryan had muttered."When you keep going from one lady to another, how do you intend to find true love? Bella is there, she’s a perfect match for you. You can’t keep going like this," Mr. Kendrick insisted."You are a man, not a boy. Act like one. I will not transfer the empire to you if you don’t get married," Mr. Kendrick had blurted out."Dad! No, you can’t do that," Ryan had protested."I can, and that is final," Mr. Kendrick had said, leaving the study room.Fuming, Ryan had left the mansion. His mother, Mrs. Rose, had tried to get his attention about his birthday preparations, Ryan come see the decorations i choose for your birthday”. but he ignored her and stor

He relaxed back into his seat, his gaze fixed on her as she began her performance. She danced with an enticing blend of sexiness and grace, her movements perfectly in sync with the rhythm of the music.When Iris finished her set, she noticed his intense gaze. Descending from the stage. Ryan called her over, his eyes never leaving hers. She acted naive and vulnerable, which only made him more determined. “I have a proposition for you," Ryan said, his gaze intense, Marry me," Ryan said, his voice steady and commanding.Iris's eyes widened in shock, her expression helpless as if her eyes were going to pop out. Ryan almost laughed at her reaction but maintained his composure.
