Chapter 1

During our passionate relationship, Pierce Donovan disappeared from my life without a word. He was fifteen years older than me. Since he was my uncle, I should’ve treated him with more formality, but our relationship crossed the line three years ago.I still remembered that night—Pierce was drunk when he kissed me, finally admitting the love he’d kept buried for years. But the next morning, he left with nothing more than a simple goodbye, disappearing without a trace, and for three long years, I searched for him everywhere.Now, standing at the door of room 603, seeing Pierce again, the warmth in his eyes, once filled with love, was gone. What replaced it was nothing but cold indifference. If it weren’t for the small mole near the corner of his eye, I would’ve thought I had the wrong person."Florence, we’ve broken up. Don’t come bothering me again." His words were cold, piercing like a blade straight to my heart. I stood there frozen, staring at his face which appeared both familia

Chapter 2

Following Tanya’s advice, I changed into the outfit she gave me, and after downing a few more drinks at her urging, I found myself once again standing at the door of room 603. Taking a deep breath, I braced myself before knocking.Pierce opened the door, surprised to see me. He hadn’t gone to bed yet, and his clothes were still neat.“What are you doing here?”Fueled by the alcohol, I didn’t say a word. Instead, I threw myself into his arms. He smelled incredible. As my jacket slipped off, I wrapped my arms around his neck, my exposed skin pressing against the cool fabric of his shirt. Pierce stumbled back a couple of steps, startled, trying to push me away, but in the end, he just closed the door behind us.“Why are you dressed like this?”I half-closed my eyes, tilting my head up to lock my gaze with his.There was a flicker of tension in his eyes, the stern look on his face softening slightly. He opened his mouth to say something, but I pressed a finger to his lips.Standing o

Chapter 3

After a night of passion, I had no idea how I even fell asleep. When I woke up, my head was pounding. That alcohol from last night really packed a punch.Rubbing my temples, I sat up and exhaled deeply. Suddenly, a low, husky voice from behind startled me.“Awake?”I shuddered, feeling an overwhelming sense of anxiety, as though I’d been caught doing something wrong. Instinctively, I swallowed hard, pulling the blanket up to cover the intimate marks on my skin. I forced an awkward smile and glanced at him, my mouth opening and closing before I finally managed to say, “Pierce…”He was lying on his side, propped up on one elbow, his gaze intense and almost mischievous, as if he could see right through me. “That’s not what you called me last night.”My mind immediately flashed back to the madness of the night before, and my cheeks flushed with heat. Did we really…?He leaned down, burying his face in the crook of my neck, inhaling deeply as if savoring my scent, the scent that only b

Chapter 4

I stood by the window, watching as Pierce’s car slowly disappeared from view, a heavy weight settling on my chest, making it hard to breathe. His unusual behavior kept gnawing at me, and I couldn’t shake the feeling that something serious had happened.By noon, I was standing outside Pierce’s office building, carrying a homemade lunch. My steps quickened as I replayed his strange behavior in my mind, my heart racing with anxiety.I stepped out of the elevator only to see Pierce’s assistant hurrying toward me. Thinking he might have forgotten me after all this time, I was about to introduce myself, but before I could speak, he grabbed my arm and pulled me into a corner.Before I could ask what was going on, the assistant raised a finger to his lips, signaling me to stay quiet and leave. Suddenly, the sound of glass shattering from Pierce’s office made my heart lurch, and I stumbled back a step, panic rising in my chest.Through the frosted glass, I could make out Pierce’s furious figu

Chapter 5

I jumped, a gasp escaping my lips. "Why is there blood? Are you hurt?" Panic surged through me as I hurriedly checked his palms and the backs of his hands. Pierce pressed his lips together, pulling his hands away, his movements betraying a hint of unease. I stared at him in confusion, but he avoided my gaze. Then my eyes fell on his elbow, where blood was still dripping down his arm. He seemed completely unaware of the pain, even casually brushing his hand over his neck.My heart raced as I grabbed his arm, my breath catching when I saw the deep, jagged wound. I gasped sharply. Pierce, now visibly more relaxed, simply said, "The blood on the floor must’ve splattered when I got hurt."As I tended to the wound, his brows furrowed, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead, yet he still managed to reassure me. "Don’t worry, it doesn’t hurt."Tears welled up in my eyes, nearly spilling over. That afternoon, he didn’t go back to work and obediently came home with me to rest. He claimed

Chapter 6

Grace sighed deeply, while I sat frozen on the couch, my mind blank.The woman in front of me smiled sweetly as she extended her hand, but there was a clear challenge in her eyes. "You must be Florence Lambert, right? I remember you’re Pierce’s little niece. I’m Lucy Snow. From now on, you should call me Aunt."Aunt?Trembling, I reached out my hand, utterly shaken by everything happening before me. But Lucy grabbed my hand tightly, squeezing it hard enough to make me wince in pain. I quickly yanked my hand back, letting out a muffled groan.Her gaze flicked over me with a smirk, her eyes filled with unhidden mockery and contempt. Her face radiated disdain.Grace, watching the exchange, merely shook her head helplessly. “Pierce is going to get engaged to her. You should probably start calling her Aunt.”Engaged to Lucy?Impossible. Just last night, Pierce kissed my forehead, telling me over and over that he loved me. And today, he got engaged to this woman? What did he take me for?I

Chapter 7

The rain hadn’t stopped, growing heavier as it drenched the city in a thick, misty fog. Cars sped by on the road, splashing water onto me, each drop biting cold against my skin. When I finally got home, the house was empty, eerily silent. My soaked hair dripped continuously, and the sound of water hitting the floor echoed with every step I took, leaving wet trails behind me.I locked myself in my bedroom and didn’t come out all day.It wasn’t until the sound of someone pounding on the door jolted me from my daze that I looked up at the shaking door."Florence, pull yourself together!" Tanya's voice came through."Are you going to let Lucy laugh at you like this?" she yelled from the other side of the door. For a while, there was silence. Just when I thought she’d given up and left, the door swung open. Tanya stood there, waving the spare key in her hand, and sat down beside me on the bed.“Trust me, Pierce must have his reasons for acting this way.”I didn’t understand, but I didn’t

Chapter 8

The man’s eyes darkened, his brows slightly furrowed, clearly displeased with what I’d said. I turned to walk away, but before I could, his hand shot out, locking around my waist. In an instant, he hoisted me over his shoulder.No matter how much I struggled, he didn’t budge.I pounded on his back, furious. “Pierce, put me down! Your fiancée is waiting for you at home!”Ignoring me, Pierce carried me to the car, pinning me against the cold window. I shivered as the icy glass touched my skin.“Pierce, we’re done. I don’t need you anymore!” He leaned in, his hot breath grazing my ear. My eyes widened, my breathing quickened, and I instinctively turned away from his gaze.“What if I insist?” His husky voice resonated in my ears, matching the rapid beat of my heart.His fingers slid along my waist, sending an electric jolt through me, igniting a tension I couldn’t ignore. The space inside the car felt tight, the faint scent of alcohol lingering in the air.He pressed his body against

Chapter 9

Pierce stood frozen in disbelief, gently setting me down before bending over to pick up the report. His hand clenched around the paper, shaking with increasing force as his entire body trembled.Everyone was struck silent, including myself. My eyes were glued to the words on the report, and just as quickly as my heart had warmed, it turned cold again. I averted my gaze, lowering my head, struggling to hold back the tears.Once again, Pierce had deceived me. His concern, his care from the night before—it had all been a charade, just a bit of fun before his engagement party. But never in my worst nightmares did I think Lucy would end up pregnant."Florence, I never thought you'd stoop so low, seducing Pierce the night before his engagement. He’s your uncle—how disgusting."Lucy strutted forward, her hand resting on her stomach, clearly proud of herself as she stopped right beside me as if flaunting her triumph.I instinctively took a step back, trying to keep some distance between us.

Chapter 10

Pierce didn’t appear. The balcony remained shrouded in darkness.Lucy scoffed, arms crossed, her eyes full of disdain. She waved her hand dismissively. “How do you still have the nerve to come here? Pierce doesn’t want to see you, and neither do I—nor our baby.”She touched her stomach as she spoke, the gesture deliberate. I bit my lip, staying silent.Maybe silence was the best answer. I shouldn’t keep throwing myself into situations where I’d only end up hurt. Pierce had made his choice.I closed my eyes, unable to tell if the wetness on my face was from tears or the cold water. I let it fall, unbothered.Just as I took a few steps to leave, I heard a harsh cough behind me.The violent coughing echoed through the night, and my heart clenched. I could practically picture Pierce clutching his chest in agony as if he might cough up a lung at any moment.Was he sick?I stopped in my tracks, glancing back at the balcony. But no one was there.The balcony windows were tightly shut, and
