Chapter 71: A Stop at Grand Horizon Hotel

The large entrance door swung open again just as Nicole stepped outside. Leo, still frozen in shock from everything that had just unfolded, lifted his gaze, only to see her walking back inside. His breath caught in his throat. Had she changed her mind? Was she staying? Nicole's heels clicked softly against the varnished floor as she came to a stop before him, her face unreadable but tinged with regret. Bella snorted loudly, wrapping her arms tightly over her chest, but Nicole didn't bat an eye.She came to a stop right in front of Leo, inches from him, and reached into her bag to pull out a sleek, embossed business card. Without hesitation, she extended it toward him."My business card," she replied, her tone firm but soft. "You can reach me with the number on it."Leo hesitated, taking it from her outstretched hand; their fingers briefly touched. He swallowed hard, wanting to say something, anything, but the words refused to come. Nicole gave him a small, almost wistful smile

Chapter 72: The Journey to Power

(A Flashback to Two Years Ago)Nicole sat by the window of the plane, her fingers gripping the armrest as she stared out at the vast sky. The clouds stretched endlessly, a quiet reminder of how small she felt at this moment. The sun filtered through the wisps of white, casting dancing shadows across her face as she pondered the weight of her decision. She was leaving behind a past filled with pain, betrayal, and loss, heading toward a future uncertain yet brimming with possibilities.The only thing that anchored her now was the 200 million dollars in her bank account, a token of appreciation from Leo for the tireless contributions she had paid to Griffins Industries.But money, as she knew, did not erase the scars of the past.It didn't turn back the time, mend the bleeding wounds in the mask of poise and calmness worn by her.With a soft sigh, she let her head fall back against the headrest and her mind wander to where it shouldn't -- to the life she was struggling to leave behind

Chapter 73: An Inevitable Encounter

Nicole stepped out of her hotel suite, her heels clicking against the polished marble floor as she made her way toward the elevator. It was about 10:22 AM, a time she usually preferred to remain unnoticed in public spaces. But today, fate had other plans. Just as she reached to push the button, a sharp collision sent her stumbling backward.The trace of expensive perfume and an air of arrogance immediately identified who it was before she even looked up.Veronica Fury.Her ex-mother-in-law.There was a moment of silence between them. Veronica's eyes went wide as her breath caught in her throat at the woman before her.But it was not Nicole who had left her speechless for a moment, it was the two giant men that stood beside her, feet to shoulders apart, cold eyes, power oozing out of every molecule in their beings.Veronica regained her poise in a flash and masked her shock with a smug sneer. "Well, well," she drawled, her voice dripping with condescension. "I should have known you

Chapter 74: Paths of Vengeance

Nicole was still seething as she slid into the backseat of the car, her hands curled into fists on her lap. The encounter with Veronica had reignited a fury she had thought she had under control. Every part of her burned with the need for justice, for revenge. The air inside the car felt thick, suffocating, filled with unspoken tension. Carter, behind the wheel, glanced at her through the rearview mirror, but said nothing. He had seen her like this before, but today, it was different. Collins was the less aggressive of the two bodyguards and only turned partially around in his seat, his voice equally calm and firm: "Boss, you need to take a breath, you can't let it get to you. We are here for you. Whatever it is you need us to do, anything, just say it.".His voice had dropped and a tinge laced within his voice sent a ripple of cold down the air. "Even if it means killing someone."Nicole let out a small, mirthless chuckle as the tension in her shoulders eased a little.She turne

Chapter 75: Unfinished Conversations

The next morning, Nicole stirred at the sound of persistent knocking at her hotel room door. Groggy and still wrapped in the warmth of her blankets, she forced herself to sit up. The knocking continued, growing more impatient. She flung her legs over the side of the bed, jammed her feet into slippers, and was off toward the door. It was the way she opened it that made everything catch in her throat. Standing before her was Leo, resplendent in a navy suit, as commanding as ever. Standing to either side of him, her two bodyguards stood at attention, their eyes raking the hallway for any signs of danger.Nicole forced a smile, taken aback for a moment. "Leo," she said, stepping aside to let him in. "What a surprise."He smirked as he came in, his sharp eyes scanning the lavish hotel suite. "Did you forget this is my hotel? It wasn't hard to find you."Nicole let out a soft chuckle. "Right. I should have remembered that."They exchanged pleasantries, and for what seemed like an org

Chapter 76: A House Divided

The atmosphere inside the Fury mansion was tense, thick with frustration and barely contained anger. Taylor paced the length of the living room, his hands curled into fists at his sides, while his mother, Veronica, sat stiffly on the couch, her face set in an icy scowl. Both mother and son were boiling with rage over Nicole’s sudden resurgence and her attempts to claim dominance over Taylons Enterprises.“This is her way of getting revenge,” Taylor spat, running a hand through his already disheveled hair. “She’s trying to humiliate us, to take away everything I’ve worked for. And I’ll be damned if I let that happen.”Veronica exhaled sharply, nodding in agreement. “That woman has always been a viper. I knew it the moment she stepped into this family. I warned you about her, but you refused to listen.” She crossed her arms, her expression dark. “She won’t succeed. I won’t let her.”Across the room, Sarah sat on the opposite couch, her arms resting on her lap. Unlike her husband an

Chapter 77: The Distance Between Us

Leo left his office at the Grand Horizon Hotel, loosening his tie slightly as he exhaled. It had been a long day filled with back-to-back meetings, and his mind was still restless. But as he approached the hallway leading to the guest suites, his thoughts drifted toward Nicole. He hadn’t seen her since that night at his mansion, the night she rejected him, telling him she wasn’t ready for a relationship. He had given her space, hoping she at least considered his words, but now the space between them was too much to bear; he had to see her.He went toward her room with decisiveness in his steps. At her door, he first knocked lightly and, getting no response, a little harder. Still, no answer.Frowning, he looked around, expecting to see her ever-present bodyguards, stationed somewhere nearby. But to his growing concern, they weren't there either. Leo knocked again. "Nicole?" His voice was steady. He pressed his ear to the door, listening for any sound from within, but all he he

Chapter 78: I Want to Make Love to You

A minute later, the security guard, after verifying Leo’s identity, signaled to the others stationed at the gate. With a nod, they stepped aside, allowing Leo’s car to roll forward onto the driveway of Nicole’s luxurious new home. The wrought-iron gates closed behind him, locking the world outside.Nicole stood outside the entrance to her house, her arms crossed while she watched him step out of his vehicle. She had expected him, no, she had waited for him since the very moment his name flashed on the security's phone. But what she hadn't expected was this rush of emotions that welled within her as he strode towards her.How had he found her? She had been discreet, ensuring her new address was well out of reach for anyone who might show up looking for her.But here he was.Leo sauntered toward her, a knowing smirk on his face, his hands in his pockets, those hawk eyes fixed on hers. "Aren't you going to invite me in?" he asked, cocking his head."After your Captain Americas at th

Chapter 79: A House on the Brink

Taylor sat at his desk, his eyes scanning the documents in front of him, but none of the words registered in his mind. His fingers gripped a pen tightly, his knuckles white with tension. He had just spent the entire morning trying to focus on what was salvageable of Taylons Enterprises, but his mind replayed the pain of losing two other investors earlier that day in really excruciating ways.He exhaled loudly and pushed the files away, frustration scratching his insides.The pen in his hand slipped from his fingers as he flung it across the room, watching as it hit the wall with a dull thud. His breathing was irregular as his mind whirled.The walls of his empire were falling down, and he felt completely helpless.His downward spiral was suddenly brought to a jarring halt by a knock at the door.He let out a heavy sigh, rubbing his temples. "Come in."The door opened, and his secretary came inside. "Sir, the board members have assembled in the conference room," she said with a caref

Chapter 80: Shadows in the Crowd

Nicole woke up to the soft rays of sunlight filtering through the curtains with its cast of a golden glow over the room. The warmth of the sheets, the faint scent of Leo lingering beside her, it was all too comfortable, too intimate. She turned her head, very much awake, watching him as he slept, the gentle rise and fall of his bare chest in regular breathing.She allowed herself to savor this peace for a moment.The night before, no less intoxicating, had burst this passion inside her, surfacing something that for a long period she had struggled to suppress.Yet the longer the initial haze of her pleasure began to wear off, reality set in and clouded her thoughts.She wasn't ready for this, not yet.Quickly, she got out of bed and wrapped a silk robe around her as she walked to the window.Her mind was at war with itself.Part of her wanted to remain folded in the arms of a man who really loved her, who had stood by her when the whole world deserted her.But the bigger part reminde
