All Chapters of HEAVENLY PAIN MARRIAGE: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Sitting trembling on the cold hospital bench, the woman struggled to process the horror she had just witnessed. Ariadne’s thoughts were a chaotic whirlwind, unable to grasp the gravity of what had unfolded. The day had already been taxing, but this... this was beyond anything she could have imagined. Just hours ago, she had been chatting with Jaxon, their conversation light and full of warmth. Now, she was here, having found his limp body sprawled on the floor of his apartment, surrounded by a sickening pool of blood.Jaxon had been shot.The police who arrived on the scene said the attack must have happened shortly before her return. While they speculated and gathered evidence, Ariadne's mind was consumed with unanswered questions. Who could have done this? Why? But none of it mattered more than the fact that Jaxon was now fighting for his life behind the sealed doors of the operating room."Ariadne!"Her name, called out sharply, snapped her from her daze. She looked up to see Mr. M

As soon as Andymon completed the task Maximilian had assigned him, he rushed back to the estate. Entering Maximilian's room, his face looked weary, reflecting the chaos of the day, now compounded by the shocking news of Jaxon’s shooting.Maximilian, sitting by the window, appeared lost in thought. Though he’d known Jaxon was a target of Gideon after his abrupt decision to sever ties, Maximilian had not anticipated Gideon would strike so swiftly. The gravity of the situation weighed heavily on him, especially since he and Jaxon had shared a meaningful conversation just earlier that day.“Maximilian...” Andymon’s voice broke the silence, prompting only a brief glance from Maximilian before his focus returned to the window, his expression unreadable.Andymon hesitated before approaching. The tension between them, born of the escalating crisis, was palpable. Andymon still couldn’t fully grasp why Maximilian had sent him to Jaxon’s apartment to retrieve an air freshener of all things, part

It had been an exhausting day for Jaxon. After handling both his official duties and certain... unofficial matters, he finally felt he could afford some time to rest. Shrugging off his long coat, he threw himself onto the plush sofa, letting out a deep breath. As the tension ebbed away, he smiled faintly, as though releasing his breath would also expel all the fatigue that had weighed him down.“Why didn’t I think of this sooner?” he mused aloud, his voice laced with a mix of sarcasm and bitterness. “If one of Mr. Milton Hadi Milton’s two sons disappeared, wouldn’t that solve everything? No more being hounded by both of them to pick a side. Whether it’s Gideon or Maximilian, if one of them inherits the seat, I’d finally have some peace.”He sat up, reaching for a small object Maximilian had handed him earlier. As he turned the plain casing over in his hands, a crooked smile spread across his face. “But honestly, I didn’t think I’d end up choosing Maximilian,” he muttered, almost chuck

Maximilian sat alone in his room, the dim light casting long shadows against the cold walls. It had been two days since Andymon left, following Maximilian's orders to watch over Jaxon, who remained unconscious. Andymon only returned briefly to drop off meals, disappearing again without a word, as if he had no intention of coming back.“So, I was right,” Maximilian muttered to himself, his voice steady yet tinged with dark amusement. “You hurt Jaxon just to distract me.”He wasn’t angry; in fact, this was exactly what he had anticipated. Gideon’s move was as predictable as it was cruel, and watching the footage of their confrontation only solidified Maximilian’s understanding of his brother’s intentions.“Hah...” Maximilian exhaled deeply, a faint, weary smile curling on his lips. “I guess my turn isn’t far off now, is it? I wonder who you’ll send to kill me, Gideon.”He stood slowly, the weight of his thoughts evident in his deliberate movements. Crossing the expansive, dimly lit room

She walked sluggishly, closing the door behind her before heading to the elevator that would take her to the first floor. Inside the elevator, Ariadne was lost in thought, reflecting on how chaotic her life had become lately. She had left the house to clear her mind, but it seemed the events from two days ago had only made all the burdens feel heavier, even adding more weight that she had to carry alone.Ariadne sighed heavily, and just then, the elevator stopped at a floor below hers. The door opened, revealing a woman dressed casually as if she were about to go somewhere, pushing a stroller into the elevator.Ariadne remained silent, but as the elevator descended, her attention was drawn to the adorable sleeping baby in the stroller. Without realizing it, she smiled, momentarily forgetting the weight on her shoulders. However, that smile quickly faded when the baby’s mother spoke up.“Ma’am?” the woman, taller than Ariadne, called out, causing Ariadne to straighten up and face forwa
