As the night wore on, Anita felt her heart pounding in her chest. Like a terrible echo, the video—the disclosure of her darkest moment—repeated in her head. Her breath was shallow, and her hands shook. Now everything was out there. The moment she had concealed from Nathan, the world, and herself was now visible to everyone. However, Nathan's voice cut through her mental haze. With his hand firmly clutching hers, he added, "I won't let this destroy you." His features were marked with a promise, and his eyes were ferocious. He wasn't staring at her as though she were brittle or damaged. He was staring at her as if she were worth battling for. She was frightened by that.Anita murmured quietly, her voice struggling with the vulnerability she couldn't quite control, "I don't need your protection." "You don't have all the facts about me." Although Nathan's visage briefly softened, his resolve remained unwavering. "Anita, you don't have to tell me everything. However, I won't

The man in the suit was standing there, waiting for Nathan to respond, and the room was tense and silent. As Nathan kept staring at the envelope, his knuckles whitened as he held it in his fist, Anita broke out in cold perspiration on her back. The moment's weight was suffocating her, bearing down on her chest. What could be so significant? What might be in that package to make all the difference in the world? At last, Nathan raised his head, his eyes as hard as a rock. "What's this?" A small smirk came to the man in the suit, his face unreadable and icy. "Mr. Grant, that's a piece of the puzzle that's going to blow your world apart."Anita felt her heart race. What puzzle? Despite her attempts to maintain composure, she shook her voice and shouted, "What are you talking about?" However, the man took a while to respond. All he did was move closer, his presence more commanding than before. "Your background is not as hidden as you believe, Miss Bennett. You may still see t

Since the phone conversation with her father, Anita and Nathan's tension had increased to an almost intolerable degree. She could always see the worry, the fury, and the pledge to keep her safe in his eyes. However, there was more, something more profound—a desire that, up until now, neither of them had dared to face. It threatened to erupt as it simmered just below the surface.With her hands shaking, Anita perched on the edge of the bed and gazed at the phone resting in her lap. The world seemed to weigh more than before. Her darkest moments were revealed, and her background was visible to everyone. But right now, Nathan—the man who had supported her and vowed to defend her when no one else would—seemed to be the only thing that mattered.Since they got back to the estate, Nathan had been more reserved than normal, obviously focused on the impending confrontation. She sensed the same conflict she was experiencing in him. the urge to protect her and make everything right. In

The atmosphere was heavy with oppressive silence. Nathan was standing a few feet away from Anita, his jaw clinched such that it might cut glass, and his fists clenched at his sides. Anita couldn't quite identify it, but there was something deeper in his gaze despite the worry. She could feel his eyes pressing down on her, but she was unable to look him in the eye. She couldn't pretend everything was fine while yet looking him in the eye. Eleanor's insinuations lingered in the void between her words, which hovered in the air like a poisonous fog.Nathan responded in a low, nearly growling voice, "You heard her." She is attempting to ruin us. attempting to cause you to mistrust us and me. Drying up, Anita swallowed hard. She pulled the blanket firmly over herself, her hands shaking. She had put a lot of effort into keeping her history secret and hidden in the back of her mind. Now, though, it seemed to be coming apart, as if the barriers she had built with such care were star

As Harry entered the conference, anxiety began to rise in the room. For a moment, everything seemed to pause as his gaze fell on Nathan. Anita felt her heart pounding and the weight of the moment crushing down on her chest.Nathan's face changed, becoming cautious rather than icy, with a glimmer of doubt visible in his eyes. He tightened his hold on her hand as if to ground himself, as if something more delicate than his intentions had been jeopardised by Harry's unexpected entrance.The night's events flashed through Anita's memory, causing her heart to speed. Her secrets and past are all entangled in this man's web. He was now standing a few steps away, his presence hovering over everything like a shadow. “Well, well,” Harry remarked in a silky, sarcastic voice. "Nathan, it has been a long time."Slowly, Nathan got to his feet, his jaw clinched as he confronted his nephew, his business adversary, and the destruction of his family. "Harry, what do you want?" Nathan's voice w
