The Argument

Chapter One hundred and twenty One: The ArgumentLily's POVThe morning sunlight streamed through the curtains, bathing the room in a warm glow, but doing nothing to lift the heaviness in my chest. I had slept little. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw their faces—the men who kidnapped me, how they laughed, how they looked at me like I was nothing.I shook my head, trying to push the memories away. Today was a different day. I had stuff to do, and I couldn't let fear control me.I took a deep breath, stood, and reached for my phone on the nightstand. While getting ready, there was a knock on the door."Lily," Simeon's voice sounded from the other side.I sighed. I already knew what this was about.I opened the door, and there he stood, arms crossed over his chest, his piercing gaze raking over me. "Where do you think you're going?"I lifted my chin. "To work."His expression darkened. "No, you're not."I rolled my eyes. "Yes, I am, Simeon.""No, you're not," he repeated, stepping into

Suspicion

Chapter 122 Suspicion Lily's POVI was sitting at my desk, trying to focus on the sheet of paper before me, but my mind was restless. The house was too quiet, yet I could feel the weight of unseen eyes on me. It had been this way since morning—an uncomfortable feeling that something was amiss.Simeon had insisted that I stay home, refusing to let me go to work. We had argued about it, and I had tried to get him to see that I wasn't some fragile person who needed to be kept under lock and key. But in the end, I had given in—not because I felt he was right, but because I knew he wasn't going to change his mind even if i sins it, he and Nelson already agreed. Even now, I could hear him walking around downstairs, locking doors, making calls, keeping security around the house tight. Nelson had also joined him, informing me that the ones pursuing me would not let go so easily. But that was not to mean that I was going to just sit here and do nothing.I looked back at my computer, but my

Scary Messages

Chapter 123 : Scary MessagesLily’s POVI was sitting on the couch, staring at my phone, when it vibrated in my hand.The sound made me flinch.I hadn't been seeking a message. Not from anyone. Considering all that had happened, every little something felt like a warning, like something was lurking in the shadows, ready to attack.Shaking fingers opened my phone.Unknown NumberMy heart pounded as I hesitated.A half of me didn't want to open it. A half of me wished I could have thrown my phone across the room, pretending I hadn't read it, that everything was fine.But I was smarter than that.I gasped slightly as I tapped the message."You can hide behind Simeon and Nelson all you want, but that won't stop what's coming. This is just the beginning."My stomach curled. My mouth went dry.I gripped the phone in my fist, rereading the words over and over, as though they would reverse themselves. As though I'd imagined them.But they weren't imaginary.Someone was watching me.Someone k

Mission

Chapter 124 : MissionCara's POVThe room was quiet, but not in a peaceful way. The silence clung between us thick and heavy with tension and unspoken words and exhaustion weighing on all of us like a heavy burden. Only the tick of the clock that loomed on the wall cut through it, every tick sounding like the marking of some inevitable countdown.Nelson leaned back in the couch, rubbing his forehead, his face expressionless but his body language screaming frustration. He was tired. His shoulders were slouched, his usually piercing eyes lackluster with exhaustion. He had slept little in days, and it was starting to catch up with him.Simeon, though, paced back and forth by the window, his jaw clenched. He was always the one who kept it together, the one who would never give in to panic. Even in all that had happened, he was steadfast, trying to keep us from falling apart.I stood next to the table, looking down at my phone. The message left there earlier remained on the screen, mocking

Plan

Chapter 125 – Lily's POVPlan The moment I heard his voice, my entire body went cold.I didn't want to believe it. I couldn't believe it.But there was no denying that voice.Adrian.A chill ran down my spine as I slowly faced him. My heart pounded against my chest, but I forced myself to stay calm. I couldn't let him see that his arrival unsettled me.Adrian King stood mere feet from me, his sharp eyes boring into my very being with a mix of anger and amusement. He was as I remembered—tall, impeccably dressed, and composed, as if he hadn't just laid waste to all I knew.He wore a flawlessly tailored black suit, his spit-shined shoes clicking against the concrete floor as he moved forward. The dim warehouse light shone overhead, and macabre shadows danced across his face. He had always possessed a lean, hard-handsome look, but now there was something darker in his countenance.Betrayal. Malice.I clenched my fists at my sides.I had spent all this time trying to discover who the pers

Frustrated

Chapter 126 – Simeon's POV : Frustrated When I heard Adrian's voice in the earpiece, my hands gripped the steering wheel tighter. A cold, lethal fury developed inside my chest as I listened to him mock Lily, his voice dripping with venom. Then Vanessa spoke.It was then that my anger set and turned into something lethal.Nelson cursed alongside me, fists balled. "Son of a bitch." His voice strained with incredulity. "I knew Adrian was an asshole, but Vanessa—" He shook his head. "She's been waiting for this moment.""This isn't about business." My voice was cold, repressed, although fires of outrage burned inside of me.Nelson nodded, his jaw clamped. "This is personal.".I stamped down harder on the gas pedal, and the car skidded through the nearly deserted roads. The warehouse was not so far away, but each passing second was an eternity.Then Lily's voice cut through the transmission."So now what? You threaten me? Hurt me? That's the plan?"Silence.Then Adrian's low, laughing voi

Lies

Chapter 127 – Lily's POVLies I knew I wasn't supposed to go back.Simeon had told me so. Following last night's debacle at the warehouse, after everything Adrian and Vanessa had done, I was supposed to be in hiding, keeping a low profile.But I couldn't.I couldn't sit around while they took everything away from me.So, in spite of the threats, in spite of the risk, I waited outside the company building the next morning, looking up at the glass tower that had been my second home.Now, it was not my home.I took a deep breath and opened the doors.The moment I stepped inside, I realized something was wrong.The usual hum of the office—the ringing telephones, the muffled conversations—fell into a strained silence as I walked through the lobby. Heads turned. Eyes darted away. People who had once smiled at me warmly now whispered behind their hands.I ignored it. I held my chin high and walked towards the elevator.Then, a voice stopped me."Miss Monroe."I stepped to turn and find Henr

Peace

Chapter 128 – Lily's POVPeaceThere was a crackling tension in the air.I stalked around the room, crossing my arms tightly over my chest, my irritation brewing just below the surface.Nelson sprawled on the couch, his arms stretched over the backrest of it, but even he did not seem settled, his gaze flicking from me to Simeon.And Simeon—he sat behind his desk, crossing his ankles, his fingers idly drumming against the highly polished wood as if he were not the man who had taken the company down.The silence grew, dense and heavy.I could no longer contain it."You had no right to do that."Simeon raised a brow, his dark eyes barely lifting to meet my own. "No right?" His voice was too even, too restrained, and it served only to further infuriate me."Yes, Simeon. No right!" I threw my arms up in the air. "You let go of an entire team of employees today! You didn't even stop to think! Do you have any idea what that's going to do to the company?"Simeon sat back, his expression unyie

A Frustrated Nelson

Chapter 129 – Nelson's POV 1A Frustrated Nelson I fell back into the couch, staring up at the ceiling, releasing a loud sigh. Not a regular sigh, but a deliberate, exaggerated one, meant to be heard. But of course, no one paid me any attention. Lily was at the other end of the couch, tucked in, staring at her phone, and Simeon was at the desk, flipping through some reports. They were both completely engrossed, like the rest of the world didn't matter. And I was losing my mind. I sighed. Louder this time. Lily didn't even raise her head. "If you're doing that for attention, it's not working." Simeon smirked but kept on reading. "It's Nelson. He always wants attention." I clapped a hand across my chest, faking deep emotional woundedness. "Wow. So that's what I am to you two? Some pitiful supporting character in your romance novel epic?" Lily snorted. "Pretty much." Simeon didn't even object. I groaned, throwing my head back. "I need a girlfriend." This time, there

A New Plan

Chapter 130 – A New Plan(Lily's POV)The tension between Simeon and me still lingered after the fight about the workers, but we both knew we needed a break from it all—the stress, the brawling, the endless fighting against Adrian. So, when Nelson mentioned a struggling village outside of the city, I saw a chance.We must leave," I told Simeon that morning, eating breakfast. "Those people are needy. You have resources, and this would be a good thing."Simeon folded his arms, sat back in his chair. "Lily, this is not the time for altruism. We have more critical problems to fight."."I know," I said, my tone calm. "But this isn't about giving food or supplies. We need help, and right now, people believe Adrian more because he gives them work. If we help them first, we might be able to find someone useful."Simeon exhaled a harsh breath, rubbing his temples. "You always have an idea, don't you?"I shrugged. "I learned from the best."There was a long silence before he nodded at last. "Fi
