Chapter 51: SHADOWS OF THE PAST 

VICTOR’S POVI sat in my office, gripping the edge of my desk. My mind wasn’t on the paperwork in front of me—it was on the conversation I’d just had with Damian Lannister.Titan Holdings had made their intentions clear. They weren’t just trying to buy my company—they were trying to silence me. “Speaking of your grandfather’s legacy, the only way your company will remain standing is if you stop digging into how he ended up in prison. Let the case sleep, and we will leave you, your company, and your loved ones alone.”The moment those words left Damian’s mouth, I knew this wasn’t just business. This was a warning.A threat.And I didn’t take threats lightly.Instead of heading home, I drove straight back to my office. The streets of New York were alive as usual, but I barely noticed. My mind was racing, piecing things together.Inside the office, most of the staff had left for the day. The silence was almost suffocating, but I welcomed it. I needed space to think.I sat at my desk, fl

Chapter 51: WHISPERS OF THE PAST

ISLA’S POVThe night was calm, the kind of peaceful silence that felt rare these days. I sat on the couch, curled up with a blanket, watching a romantic comedy with my mom. She had been getting better every day, and seeing her smile again made all the stress worth it. She turned to me suddenly, her eyes soft but filled with emotions."Isla, I don’t say this enough, but I appreciate everything you’ve done for me since your father passed."I smiled, squeezing her hand. "Mom, you don’t have to—""No, let me finish," she said gently. "Losing your father was the hardest thing for both of us, but you stepped up in ways I never expected. You took care of me when I was sick, worked hard to keep things running, and never once complained. I know I haven’t made it easy for you, but you stayed. And I just want you to know how proud I am of you."A lump formed in my throat. I tried to brush it off with a small laugh. "Well, you’re stuck with me, so you don’t really have a choice."She chuckled, wi

CHAPTER 52: A DEADLY WARNING

VICTOR'S POVEver since Damian walked into my office and threatened me, I had been extra careful. I could sense the danger in the air, lingering like a shadow. Strange vehicles had been tailing me. Sometimes it was a black SUV parked across the street from my company, other times, headlights followed me for too long before disappearing. I told Daniel about it, and he took my concerns seriously. He assigned two undercover cops to follow me discreetly, ensuring my safety. I considered hiring private security, but I didn’t want to draw unnecessary attention. I had to play smart.That evening, I was driving back from a meeting with a high-profile investor at one of the city’s luxury hotels. The meeting had gone well, but my mind was elsewhere. Damian’s threats had been echoing in my head, and I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was about to happen. As I drove through the quiet road leading back to my penthouse, I noticed a black SUV in my rearview mirror. It had been behind me for

Chapter 53: NO MORE PLAYING BY THE RULES

VICTOR'S POVPain. That was the first thing I felt. A deep, throbbing ache radiated through my body, making every breath a struggle. My face was swollen, my ribs felt like they had been cracked, and my arms were too weak to push myself up from the cold concrete floor.Damian had let me go after the brutal beating, but not before making sure I understood the message. He had ordered his men to clean up the mess—the two dead cops who had been assigned to protect me. “No body, no case,” he had said casually, as if disposing of two lives was just another part of his daily routine.I had underestimated him. I thought he was just another power-hungry businessman, someone who played within the boundaries of the law when necessary. But I had been wrong. Damian was ruthless, precise, and terrifyingly efficient. He didn’t just send messages—he erased obstacles.I tried to move, but my limbs refused to cooperate. The warehouse was eerily silent now, the only sound was my own ragged breathing. Eve

Chapter 54: A GAME OF SECRETS

ISLA’S POVI had been receiving a lot of text messages from Damian lately. If he wasn’t texting, he was calling, and when we talked, the conversations lasted longer than I expected. At first, I thought it was just friendly interest, but the more we spoke, the more I realized how fascinated he was with me. It wasn’t just casual curiosity—he seemed determined to know everything about me, from my childhood to my job, my habits, my dreams, and even the intricate details of the company I worked for.Sometimes, I brushed it off as harmless. Maybe he was just intrigued because of his love for haute couture and luxury goods—after all, fashion and jewelry were part of his business world. But at other times, something about his curiosity felt… off. It was flattering, yes, but also unsettling. There were moments when his interest in my job and the inner workings of the company felt too intense, almost calculated. Still, I convinced myself it was just my paranoia.We started meeting more frequent

Chapter 55: Unspoken Truths

VICTOR’S POV It had been days since I last showed up at work, and I hated it. Lying in a hospital bed, feeling helpless, was never something I could tolerate. The moment I opened my eyes that morning, I knew I had to leave. The longer I stayed, the more questions people would ask. I didn’t want to create unnecessary attention, and I definitely didn’t want anyone—especially my employees—to know what had actually happened to me. The last thing I needed was to cause panic or make myself look vulnerable. I tried to sit up, ignoring the sharp pain shooting through my ribs. With a deep breath, I started removing the IV from my arm and peeling off the monitors the nurse had placed on my body. My fingers trembled slightly, but I pushed through the discomfort. I needed to get out of here. Just as I swung my legs over the side of the bed, the door burst open. “Going somewhere?” I looked up to see Dr. Harrison, our family doctor, standing in the doorway with his arms crossed. He didn’t

CHAPTER 56: SECRETS AND SUSPICIONS

VICTOR'S POVIsla had suspected my "accident" was a lie. She hadn't said it outright, but I could see it in her eyes, in the way she looked at me—too searching, too knowing. She was smart, and I had no doubt she would eventually piece things together. But I couldn’t confirm her suspicions, nor could I tell her the truth.Because if I did, she would learn that I was in this situation because of my grandfather. That I was fighting to get him out of prison because he had been wrongfully accused of a crime that turned her world upside down. Isla’s father’s murder had shattered her life, and even though my grandfather was framed, she wouldn’t care about that—not at first. Justice was justice. And if she knew there was a break in the case, she would want the truth to come out, no matter what.That was the problem.I had hired Isla for a reason—to keep her close, to watch her reactions, to keep control over how much she knew. If she found out the truth, things could spiral out of control, an

Chapter 57 – BLOOD AND LEGACY

DAMIAN’S POVI was never supposed to be my father’s successor. At least, not in his eyes. Jack Lannister never believed I had what it took to run the empire he built. To him, I was soft, weak—an outsider in my own family. It didn’t matter that I was his only son. He always looked at me like I was a disappointment. A wasted potential.That was why, from a young age, I learned not to rely on his approval. I knew I had to be better, to be smarter, to prove to him that I was more than the weakling he believed me to be. Unlike him, I didn’t crave bloodshed to show my dominance. I didn’t believe in brute force as the only solution. No, I was different. I was strategic, calculated, and efficient.Instead of blindly following his ways, I carved my own path. I studied at MIT, earning a degree in Technology and Business Strategy, not because I wanted to impress him but because I wanted to understand power from a different perspective. I wanted to control industries, not just people. While my fa

CHAPTER 58: THE HUNT BEGINS

VICTOR’S POVThe moment I stepped back into the office, I was greeted by a large "Welcome Back" banner hanging across the main hallway. My employees had gone out of their way to show their support, and I could see the genuine smiles on their faces. Isla was there too, standing near the entrance with a soft expression. For a moment, I let myself feel the warmth of their concern.I nodded in appreciation, acknowledging their efforts, but I didn’t linger. There was work to do.As soon as I stepped into my office, I shut the door behind me, the smile fading from my face. My mind wasn’t on celebrations or kind gestures—I was focused on one thing. Revenge.Damian had underestimated me. That was his mistake.I wasn’t just going to sit back and let him get away with everything he had done. The attack on me was personal, but what he did to those cops, what he had done to so many others, was unforgivable. If he thought he could silence me with intimidation, he was dead wrong.I had already begu

Chapter 59 :WHISPERS OF WARNING

ISLA’S POVFor days now, I had been watching Victor closely, and I knew something was wrong. It wasn’t just a minor issue—it was something big, something heavy enough to shift the energy around him. The Victor I knew was always full of life. He was the kind of man who could walk into a room and brighten the atmosphere with his mere presence. He was sharp, confident, and had a way of motivating the people around him. But now, that light was dimmed.It wasn’t just his mood that had changed; it was his entire presence. There was a weight on his shoulders, something pressing down on him so hard that he barely looked like the same man I used to admire. His smiles were forced, his posture stiff, and sometimes, he would space out, lost in thought, as if his mind was elsewhere.I tried to brush it off at first. Maybe it was work stress. Maybe he was dealing with something personal. But the more I observed, the more I realized this was beyond a stressful workload. Something was bothering him d
