chapter 81

Elizabeth’s pulse pounded as the door creaked open, and the same man who’d dragged her from the train leered at her from the doorway, his dark gaze sharp and predatory. She took a step back, her instincts screaming at her to run, but there was nowhere to go, and he blocked the only way out. He tilted his head, smirking as he held out his hand, mocking politeness.“Come along now,” he sneered, clearly enjoying her fear. “It’s time you met our guests. Don’t be shy.”Her feet stayed glued to the floor, even as she tried to summon the courage to walk past him without a trace of fear. But her heart hammered too loudly, and her palms were clammy as she curled them into fists at her sides. The faint sounds of distant laughter drifted through the hall, and dread sank into her stomach, twisting it into tight, painful knots.The man sighed, the smirk vanishing as impatience took over. He strode toward her and seized her arm roughly, pulling her forward with enough force to jolt her into motion.

chapter 82

Elizabeth’s pulse thundered in her ears as her gaze met his—her “buyer.” He was tall, his posture straight and imposing, exuding a silent authority that made the air around him feel heavier. His piercing green eyes seemed to cut right through her, studying her with a depth she couldn’t comprehend. She felt an unsettling mix of fear and confusion.For a moment, he said nothing, and his silence was unnerving, as though he was sizing her up, deciding if she was worth whatever he had paid. She held her breath, waiting, her heart racing faster with each second that passed under his cold scrutiny.Then, he extended his hand toward her. The gesture was strangely gentle, almost out of place in this dark, twisted setting. She stared at his hand, unable to bring herself to take it, her eyes flicking back up to his face. There was something about him she couldn’t quite grasp. His expression was unreadable, almost stoic, like a mask hiding whatever lay beneath.In the silence, she found herself t

chapter 83

Elizabeth's heart hammered as the car turned down a wide, secluded drive lined with towering trees. Her pulse quickened with each passing moment, both from the uncertainty of her situation and from the curiosity rising within her. She didn’t know much about her "buyer," but one thing was certain—he possessed wealth and power that went beyond anything she'd seen before.As the car glided to a stop, her eyes widened at the sight before her. A sleek collection of luxury cars stretched along the drive, each one more extravagant than the last. She hadn’t thought anyone could rival Mr. Black or her brothers in terms of wealth, but this man—whoever he was—seemed to surpass them effortlessly. She stared, unable to suppress a soft gasp as she took in the endless display of opulence.When she glanced back at him, she found herself lingering on his features, his chiseled jawline and those intense green eyes that held a strange, almost unreadable look. He was undeniably handsome, a fact she’d not

chapter 84

Adrian sat across from Elizabeth in the quiet dining room, his eyes never leaving hers. She could feel his intense gaze even when she looked down, fiddling with the napkin in her lap. The silence stretched, filling the air between them with an unspoken question.Finally, Adrian broke the quiet, his voice gentle but insistent. “Elizabeth, I want you to tell me how you ended up here.”Elizabeth’s fingers stilled, and she looked up, meeting his gaze with a slight shiver. Part of her hesitated, unsure if she should open up to him. Yet, in the calm, unassuming way he watched her, there was something that made her feel... safe.Taking a deep breath, she began, her words slow and careful at first. “I didn’t just end up here,” she said softly. “It started with my family—a complicated mess of brothers, a dangerous uncle, and... someone I trusted who betrayed me.”Adrian’s eyes darkened slightly, his expression serious. “Go on.”“My brothers—Mike and Ryan, Leo , Zack—they’re all I have. We’ve a

chapter 85

Mike's point of View Mike paced the dimly lit room, his fists clenched, knuckles raw and aching from the hours he’d spent trying to break through Uncle Nick’s silence. It was maddening—each minute that passed without answers felt like another wall closing in on him, trapping him in his own frustration. He’d tried every approach he knew, from coaxing to threats, but Nick’s expression had remained that same smug sneer.Across the room, Nick sat bound to a chair, a thin trickle of blood running from his split lip. Even now, with bruises darkening his skin and a cut above his eyebrow, he looked far too pleased with himself. Every punch seemed to fuel his sick enjoyment, a twisted satisfaction that drove Mike up the wall.“You think this is funny?” Mike growled, his voice barely containing the rage simmering beneath. “You think you can just sit there and smirk after everything you’ve done?”Nick lifted his head slowly, his gaze mocking as he met Mike’s eyes. “You’ve gotten sloppy, Mike.

chapter 86

Mike's point of View Mike walked back and forth on the chilly concrete, growing increasingly impatient. He had already put in hours attempting to extract information from Uncle Nick, but all efforts were unsuccessful. He felt overwhelmed by the silence and realized he couldn't deal with it by himself anymore. Mike took out his phone and quickly decided to involve his brothers, without much hesitation. Leo and Ryan were the only ones who could assist him in reaching Nick. He let out a sigh before initiating a video call, and shortly after, Leo's face showed up, then Ryan's. Both of them had serious expressions on their faces and appeared to understand the gravity of Mike's impending words. "I didn't intend to involve you both in this situation," Mike began, his tone showing weariness but determination. However, the focus is on Elizabeth. We lack the time for ego or rage. We require explanations, and Nick is not sharing them. Ryan's face showed his frustration as he frowned. "Mike

chapter 87

Laying on the luxurious bed in Adrian's grand house, Elizabeth's thoughts raced while she gazed up at the sophisticated chandelier. Despite the opulence and sophistication of her surroundings, her mind was engulfed in the shadows of doubt and anxiety. She attempted to reassure herself by recalling that she had endured worse situations before, but this time was unlike any other. She was distant from her family, Mr. Black, and all familiar faces. Adrian's mansion was a stronghold. She could only see a little from her room, but she had spotted his many security guards, all equally intimidating. Although this location resembles a castle, for her, it was just like being trapped in a different jail. Her train of thought was interrupted by a gentle tapping at the door, causing her to sit up hastily with a blend of worry and anticipation. It could have been Adrian once more. Although he appeared cold on the outside, there was a quality about him that gave her a sense of security - a p

chapter 88

Elizabeth strolled through the twisting corridors of Adrian's estate, her footsteps gentle on the shiny marble surfaces. All morning, she was restless, feeling that Adrian hadn't revealed everything about her situation. The mansion was huge, with rooms that appeared to stretch endlessly, some containing valuable art while others had basic furniture, giving the home a strangely mysterious allure. While walking along a dimly lit hallway, Elizabeth spotted a partially open door at the corridor's conclusion. She paused, looking around to ensure no one was observing. She was uncertain if Adrian would be okay with her venturing this way, but her curiosity was pulling at her. Ultimately, he hadn't provided her with several answers, and if she was going to be trapped here, she should at least comprehend her environment. Elizabeth pushed the door open, entered, and discovered she was in a small library that lacked the sophistication of the other rooms. Dust filled the air heavily and pape

chapter 89

Mike paced the cold concrete floor, his patience wearing thin as he waited outside the dimly lit room where Nick sat. They had been trying for hours to get something out of him, but so far, Nick had remained unyielding, mocking their efforts with a twisted smile that only fueled Mike’s frustration. Every time he thought they were close, Nick would sit back, that smug look on his face, as if he were savoring every second of their struggle. Mike’s jaw clenched, his fists tightening at his sides as he struggled to keep his composure.Mike’s mind raced with thoughts of Elizabeth, each one amplifying his need for answers. He could no longer afford to wait. He needed to break Nick, and fast.Finally, he heard footsteps approaching. Turning, he saw a tall, wiry man with sharp, penetrating eyes entering the room. This was Ethan, a man Mike had worked with years ago—a skilled interrogator, and more importantly, someone who understood how to unearth secrets without leaving a single mark.“Thank

chapter 90

Elizabeth sat on the edge of her bed, her mind racing as fragments of memories floated to the surface. She had almost forgotten them—small, insignificant moments tucked away in the corners of her mind. But now, under Adrian’s roof, surrounded by secrets and mysteries, those fragments felt like puzzle pieces demanding her attention.One memory lingered, clearer than the rest. She remembered her brother's words, said in a whisper, a warning that Elizabeth hadn’t fully understood at the time."Stay away from your uncle’s safe, Lizzy," her brother had warned. "It holds things no one should know."As a child, she hadn’t thought much of it. Nick had been her uncle, charming and often indulgent. She had admired him, looked up to him, and never questioned his mysterious side. But now, with everything she knew and everything he had done, that memory took on new meaning.She leaned against the cool metal bed frame, lost in thought. The safe had been in her uncle’s office, hidden behind a paint
