Semua Bab Heiress Return: Revenge Of The Crippled Ex-Wife: Bab 11 - Bab 20

Damon’s POV. The evening was going exactly as planned. The restaurant was perfect—low lighting, soft music, and an atmosphere that made business deals flow effortlessly. I leaned back in my chair, listening as Clara spoke to the investors, her voice smooth and confident. She had a way of making people feel like they were on the brink of something big as if they’d regret it forever if they didn’t take the opportunity she was offering. That was why I was eager to make her my mother-in-law. With her, there was nothing I couldn't achieve. The investors nodded along, asking the occasional question, clearly intrigued by her proposal. Restarting the biggest clothing company Clarence’s mother once owned—now under our name—was the final step in taking everything that had once belonged to Clarence. It had been a long time coming, and now that we had full control, nothing could stop us. Then my phone buzzed. I ignored it at first, keeping my focus on the conversation, but when it vibrat

Damon’s POV. Immediately Clarence disappeared, I pulled Gina into my arms, breathing in her familiar scent as I leaned in to kiss her, but she turned her face away, frowning. "Why did you treat Clarence like that?" she asked, crossing her arms. "She's still my sister, you know." Her words caught me off guard. I pulled back slightly, searching her face for any trace of sincerity. Gina had never cared about how Clarence was treated before, so why bring it up now? "You don’t mean that," I said, watching her closely. "You never cared about her." She let out a small sigh, tilting her head. "Maybe not, but still… She's my sister. You could at least pity her a little." I felt irritation rise in my chest. Stepping away, I ran a hand through my hair before turning back to her. "Are you on her side now? You almost allowed her to get her hands on that medication which would have messed us up," I said, the anger I had felt before returning. "Of course not, I'm not on her side,” she sai

Julian’s POV. After work that evening, the moment I got into my car, exhaustion settled over me—heavy, suffocating. But it wasn’t just tiredness. There was something else, something I couldn’t quite put into words. Images of Clarence filled my mind, the way she had looked so helpless, so drained. From the moment we met again, I had a bad feeling about her situation, and learning that her marriage had ended only made it worse. I slumped against the driver’s seat, rubbing a hand down my face, feeling the weight of guilt pressing against my chest. Was I too harsh? My mind replayed the way Clarence had looked at me in my office—the hollow expression in her eyes, the stiffness in her shoulders, the way she had forced herself to speak, and how desperately she had begged me to. She wasn’t like that before. Back in college, she had been full of life—confident, unwavering, and always standing her ground, even when I pushed her. Now, she looked different. Defeated. Like she had been

Clarence’s POV It was already eight months after the successful surgery which I wasn't going to forget in a hurry. At first, things were going on smoothly but suddenly went awry as unforeseen complications arose. Everyone thought that was going to be my last moments on earth as I kept losing blood and to make it even more terrifying, the city the blood bank was taking forever to grant the hospital request. While everyone gave up, Julian didn't. He was resilient and would stop at nothing to make sure I left the surgery alive and he did that. Not only did I leave the operating room alive, my legs were fixed and I could walk, run and jump like everyone else though I was still healing. The smile that was tugging the side of my lips slowly began to fade away and my expression was replaced with a deep frown. Taking my eyes off the notepad on the table, I titled my head to the side, frustration gnawing in on me. My legs, which had been the greatest obstacle for me, we

Julian’s POV. Rolling my eyes, I allowed a low sigh to escape my lips. At the moment, I was trying to suppress the anger that was raving inside of me and it was all because of Kristiana. What the hell was she doing here? She had stayed away for some months now, allowing me to have my peace, and all of a sudden she was back here, showing up without being told to. The look of shock on Clarence’s face showed she hadn't expected that at all. I never had any decent conversation or reason to let her get a glimpse of my personal life while working as her doctor for the past eight months. She was completely unaware that I was even engaged. If only I knew showing up here was the reason for Kristina enquiring about my whereabouts, I wouldn't have told her. “You shouldn't be here." I stepped in, preventing Clarence from giving a response to her question. "Come on babe, you don't expect me to sit in the hallway at the airport all by myself.” Slurring in her speech, she grasped my
