Chapter 81

Elena sat on the edge of the bed, her fingers gripping the edge of the silk sheets. The city lights flickered beyond the window, casting long shadows across the room. The air was still, yet unease curled around her like an invisible force, tightening its grip.She had tried to ignore it at first. The strange feeling of being watched, the subtle weight of unseen eyes tracking her every move. But tonight, the proof was undeniable.Her phone buzzed on the nightstand.Another message.Her stomach clenched as she reached for the device, her fingers hovering above the screen for a second too long. The sender’s number was still unknown, just like the last one.Taking a slow breath, she opened it.You look beautiful tonight.A sharp chill ran down her spine.Elena sucked in a shaky breath, her pulse hammering against her ribs. The words alone were enough to unsettle her, but it was the implication behind them that made her blood run cold.Whoever this was… they were watching.She swallowed ha

Chapter 82

Adrian paced the length of his penthouse, his every step echoing through the vast space. The floor-to-ceiling windows framed the sprawling cityscape, a glittering expanse of lights stretching far beyond his reach. Normally, he found solace in this view, in the power it represented—the empire he had built with precision and control.But tonight, none of it mattered.His fingers curled into fists at his sides. His mind was a battlefield, sharp and calculating, dissecting every possibility, every angle. He had faced powerful adversaries before—rivals, traitors, men who underestimated him and paid the price. But this was different.This wasn’t business.This was Elena.And someone had dared to threaten her.Across the room, Elena sat curled up on the sleek leather couch, her arms wrapped around herself as if warding off a chill that had nothing to do with the temperature. She hadn’t spoken much since they arrived, hadn’t argued when he insisted she stay here. The weight of it all pressed

Chapter 83

Adrian barely slept. His mind refused to shut down, replaying every detail, every clue, every unanswered question about the stalker.By morning, he was already making calls, issuing orders, tightening security even further. Whoever was behind this was slipping through cracks he hadn’t even realized existed. And that meant they weren’t just skilled.They were dangerous.Elena, on the other hand, tried to go about her morning as normally as possible. She refused to be locked in fear, even as the weight of the past few days settled heavy on her chest.But the tension never left.Every time her phone buzzed, her stomach twisted. Every time she stepped outside, she felt watched.Paranoia or reality? She didn’t know anymore.By midday, Adrian had arranged for her to meet with his private investigator. She didn’t like being escorted everywhere, but after last night, she wasn’t arguing.She was halfway through reviewing a file when a sharp knock at her office door made her tense.“Elena?” Sop

Chapter 84

The room felt suffocating, the walls pressing in with the weight of something unseen yet powerful. Elena’s heart pounded, the sound almost deafening in her ears. The man standing before her had just spoken words that sent an icy chill through her veins."It’s about your family."The moment those words left his mouth, the atmosphere in the room changed.Adrian stepped closer, his entire body tensed like a coiled spring, his presence both reassuring and intimidating. He positioned himself slightly in front of Elena, his protective instincts taking over. His eyes, dark and calculating, locked onto the man with a deadly intensity."Start talking," Adrian commanded, his voice low, sharp. There was no room for negotiation in his tone.The man held his gaze for a moment before exhaling, his expression unreadable. He wasn’t in a hurry to explain, which only made Elena more anxious."Your father made an enemy years ago," the man finally said, his voice measured, careful. "A powerful man. Someo

He paused, but didn’t turn around. "Let’s just say I owe you one, and I know what it’s like to be where you are."And then, without another word, he walked out.Elena stared at the door long after he was gone, her mind racing with everything she had just heard.Her father had unknowingly made an enemy.Adrian had unknowingly crossed the same man.And now, she was caught in the middle of a storm that had been brewing for years.She turned to Adrian, her voice barely above a whisper."What do we do now?"Adrian’s expression was unreadable, but his voice was firm."We don’t wait for him to make the first move."===Later on, Adrian stood at the floor-to-ceiling window, his gaze locked on the sprawling city skyline. The towering buildings, the shifting lights, the rhythmic pulse of life below—it was all so familiar, yet tonight, it felt distant. Like a battlefield waiting for the next move.The room was eerily silent, save for the faint ticking of the wall clock. Normally, he thrived in t

Chapter 86

The morning was unnervingly quiet. Too quiet.Elena stood in the kitchen, a steaming cup of coffee in her hands, but she wasn’t drinking it. The rich aroma filled the space, but she barely noticed. Instead, her gaze was fixed outside the large glass windows, watching the sun slowly rise over the city skyline.Normally, she found comfort in the way the first golden rays of daylight touched the rooftops, spreading warmth and life over the streets below.But today, it felt different.Today, there was an unease curling around her like an unseen fog.The weight of the previous revelation still sat heavy in her chest. Someone from Adrian’s past—an enemy—had resurfaced, bringing with him a grudge that had survived over a decade. And worse, it wasn’t just about Adrian. Her father was involved in this, too.A slow, anxious sigh escaped her lips.Was this revenge for something her father had done? Or something Adrian had done? Or both?She tightened her grip on the cup, as if it could anchor he

Chapter 87

The city stretched out before Adrian, a glittering maze of glass and steel, bathed in the golden hues of the late morning sun. From his office’s floor-to-ceiling windows, he could see everything—the bustling streets below, the towering skyscrapers, the illusion of control that came with standing above it all.But today, the view held no meaning.His mind was elsewhere.His fingers tapped rhythmically against the polished office desk, his jaw set in a grim line. The events from earlier played on repeat in his mind, each detail sharpened to precision.A bullet. A note. A silent promise of revenge.Adrian wasn’t a man easily rattled. He had built an empire with his own hands, outmaneuvered rivals, crushed threats before they could materialize into real danger. But something about this—the patience, the precision, the personal nature of the warning—unsettled him.Whoever was behind this wasn’t just sending a message. They were playing a game.A game he hadn’t realized he was part of.A sh

Chapter 88

The man who saved Adrain from the car accident sat forward, locking eyes with Adrian and Elena as the room thickened with tension, the air so heavy it seemed to press against their chests. His voice came low, deliberate. “The enemy you’ve been dealing with… it’s Victor Langley.”Adrian’s brows furrowed instantly, a sharp glint flashing through his eyes. The name scratched at the edges of his memory, elusive yet disturbingly familiar, like a ghost lurking in forgotten corners of his past.“Victor Langley?” Elena repeated, her voice laced with confusion. “I don’t recognize the name.”The man nodded solemnly. “You wouldn’t. Victor has always worked in the shadows, orchestrating chaos without showing his face. He’s the kind who lets others crumble while he pulls the strings behind the curtain. But this... this is personal. I have every reason to believe he holds a grudge against both of you, and it runs deep.”Adrian’s eyes narrowed as his entire demeanor shifted into controlled steel. “W

Chapter 89

The room settled into a heavy, almost suffocating silence after the man left, leaving Adrian and Elena alone with the staggering truth. The quiet wasn’t peaceful—it was dense, charged, like the calm before a storm. The name Victor Langley echoed in their minds, a name neither of them could now forget.Elena paced the room, her heels tapping nervously against the floor. Her fingers tangled in her hair as she murmured, half to herself, half to Adrian. “All this time… we’ve been chasing shadows, thinking it was just corporate sabotage, competitors trying to unsettle us. But it was always him. Always Victor.”Adrian stood unmoving by the window, staring out at the city skyline, though his thoughts were miles away. His reflection in the glass looked colder, harder, as realization sunk deeper. Slowly, he turned to face her, arms folding tightly across his chest, his expression unreadable.“It explains the precision,” Adrian said quietly, voice edged with steel. “The timing. The familiarity.

Chapter 90

The atmosphere inside Adrian's boardroom was thick with tension, the kind that could be sliced clean with a knife. The early morning sun barely pierced through the half-drawn blinds, casting sharp lines of light and shadow across the faces of everyone seated around the table.Adrian sat at the head of the long table, flanked by his most trusted executives, eyes fixed on the screen projecting the details of the deal that could make or break the next quarter.It wasn't just any deal. This one was personal.For days, Adrian had been fighting off unseen attacks — rival bidders offering sudden undercuts, people who had been loyal to him for years suddenly hesitating, foreign officials becoming unusually strict with requirements. Every step had been laced with obstacles as if someone had been laying traps behind the scenes.And he knew exactly who was pulling the strings.Victor Langley.Adrian's jaw tightened as he noticed a familiar name pop up on the latest update.
