Chapter 21

Camilla Everheart shrugged. "The business world is surprisingly interconnected, Mr. Phoenix. Perhaps, without realizing it, our paths have crossed."“I guess so.” Crimson nodded in agreement."I won't beat around the bush, sir. The news about you selling Queen's Courtyard caught my attention, and I'm interested."His eyebrows shot up in surprise. Though he had received numerous offers from eager business figures wanting to purchase Queen's Courtyard, he had never anticipated that someone like Everheart would display such keen interest in acquiring it."Madam, forgive me for being so direct, but why are you so interested in the Queen's Courtyard?”“I've always dreamed of owning a hotel and restaurant.” She explained .”My dear daughter shared the same dream as I did, and I am determined to make it come true even though she’s gone.” Camilla's face softened, a hint of nostalgia creeping into her eyes as she added, “My daughter had worked at Queen's Courtyard when she was still alive.

Chapter 22

Louis parked the Chevrolet in the parking space, opened the door for Camilla, and they both proceeded to Queen's Courtyard’s entrance.Camilla and Louis effortlessly drew glances the moment they walked in. Accustomed to being in the limelight, they strode across the lobby like it was nothing.At the front desk, a stunning woman in her late twenties, dressed in a fashionable blue uniform, greeted them with a friendly smile.Camilla booked two VIP rooms in the penthouse for their overnight stay. The receptionist entered the details into her computer, and once the transaction was completed, she handed them the keycards to the rooms, saying, "Please enjoy your stay.”With their accommodations arranged, she and Louis ventured toward the restaurant, both starving. They found a table and took their seats.Camilla couldn't help but feel a tightening in her throat. According to George's letter, Elizabeth had devoted her final years to working at this place. She thought about what those years

Chapter 23

Crimson clutched the medical document tightly, disbelief etched across his face. Elizabeth hadn't lied to him—her grandfather, George, was dying, and the proof was right before his eyes.Despite reading the medical report numerous times, every glance at it still failed to make him truly comprehend the reality before him.He recalled Dr. Alexander's exact words before he left the clinic: “George Stone has only six months to live, Mr. Phoenix. There is no cure for his illness, and the only thing that can be done is to make his life as comfortable as possible.”At that moment, he fully understood the depth of Elizabeth's desperation to save her grandfather. He couldn't deny the bitter truth that he had ultimately let her down when she needed him the most.A profound sense of anger and frustration welled up inside him—all directed toward himself for not being able to help Elizabeth in the way he had wished.Despite the strained relationship between Elizabeth's grandfather and himself, Cri

Chapter 24

Ashford Penitentiary. I winced at the sharp pain in the corners of my lips as I cowered in the corner of the cramped cell. The lingering metallic taste on my tongue served as a painful reminder of the spot where my lips had split and bled. Yesterday, during a brawl in the cafeteria, my cellmate had taken the opportunity of the commotion to hit me in the face. She got away unscathed because I had no proof she did it. My only witness had shut her mouth in fear for her life. I couldn’t blame her for it. Footsteps echoed down the hall. The clinking of keys drew nearer until it abruptly halted outside my metal cell door. "Ms. Stone." The guard's voice boomed through the narrow cracks, jolting me out of my deep thoughts. "You have a visitor," he announced. A visitor? Who would come to see me? It couldn't be Samantha; she had just visited me yesterday. It couldn't be Grandpa either; I had made it clear in the letter I left him that he should never visit me here. My heart pounding,

Chapter 25

Three Months Later.Days passed quickly, and I can't believe it's almost been three months since I came to Ashford Penitentiary.Time has moved at an odd pace in these lonely four corners. The monotonous routine within these prison walls blurs the line between days and nights, making it difficult to keep track of the passing time.Crimson has been visiting me every chance he gets.Each time he comes, I refuse to see him. But he's an idiot who keeps coming back anyway.Why can't he just stop and pretend I don't exist? He's good at doing that. I wish he would just disappear from my life. I've been trying my best to get him out of my mind, and his visits to the prison aren’t helping me move on.Perhaps he still feels burdened by guilt for not helping me when I needed him in the past. That's why he keeps coming back to ease his burden.My bump has grown bigger, a visible reminder of the life growing inside me. It's impossible to keep my pregnancy a secret from Crimson. That was precisely

Chapter 26

The private plane descended onto the runway, its engines roaring as it came to a stop. A few moments later, the door opened, and Camilla Everheart emerged, her long blonde hair playing with the wind as she walked down the stairs.She shielded her eyes from the bright sun, taking in the exquisite morning sky of Flintstone City as she looked up.After three long months away, she finally returned to take charge of her new hotel and restaurant.She planned to stay in the City longer this time to oversee the hotel transformation. In fact, she had bought a massive three-story mansion with beautifully landscaped gardens where she and her family could live for a while."Finally, we arrive. The whole flight made me sick," she complained to her husband, who only smiled at her. Camilla glanced over at him, a soft smile spreading across her face. She couldn't help but feel grateful for his recovery after his heart operation three months prior. It was a difficult time, watching him fight for his l

Chapter 27

Louis looked at her and spoke. “The last update from the investigator was that he couldn't find a woman named Elizabeth Stone buried in any of the cemeteries in Flintstone City. There were no records of her death in any of the hospitals either.”Camilla heaved a weary sigh. She had been holding out hope that Louis would bring her some good news, but it seemed that she was no closer to finding the truth than she had been before.It was still unclear if Elizabeth had indeed died or if George had lied to her.Louis had assured her that the private investigator had been working tirelessly to find any information, but each passing day made her more and more anxious.Waiting was only making her feel helpless. She wanted to take matters into her own hands, but her hands were already full, and if she burdened herself with another big job, she might break emotionally.Camilla was aware of her strength. She was the type of person who never backed down from anyone. However, when it came to her d

Chapter 28

My consciousness was drifting back and forth like a boat caught in a raging storm. I couldn't see anything except darkness, making me wonder if I was dead… or perhaps dying.I was stabbed. Blood—there was so much blood. The red liquid flowing out of my flesh turned the white tile into a river of crimson. It was all I could remember.I could hear voices. One of them sent shivers down my spine. It was delicate, filled with a deep warmth that I recognized instantly. “Please come back to us…” said the voice, and it reminded me of my mother.I hadn't heard her voice for a very long time, but I knew in my heart it was her. How could I ever forget the voice of the woman who gave birth to me? The woman who used to sing me lullabies?The other voices that sounded distant at first began to permeate my consciousness.“You’re going to be okay…”“We’re here for you…”“Keep fighting.”The voices reminded me of Louis, Henry, and David—the brothers I had lost in a tragic plane crash.Beep... Beep...

Chapter 29

Hatred shone in my eyes when I met his gaze. All I wanted was for him to leave me alone, to let me move on with my life, but why was he forcing himself back into my life?"We can still make things right, Liz. We can forgive each other."Forgive each other? After everything I've been through because of him, I think it won't be possible."Can you bring back my son?" I asked in a barely audible voice. "Can you? Maybe I will forgive you if you can do that.""That's not something I could do..." He whispered agonizingly."Then leave.... I can't bear to see your face...."Crimson let out a sigh and surrendered. He lifted his hands in the air. "I'm leaving... But don't mistake it for your victory; I'm simply giving you time to rest."He retracted his steps toward the door without a backward glance and closed it behind him, engulfing the room in a disconcerting silence.—A gentle knock sounded on the door.I opened my eyes, expecting Crimson to be back, but instead, it was a nurse carrying a

Chapter 30

Louis sprinted to the door, but just as he thought salvation was within reach, a creak reverberated through the air. He fell back just in time when the heavy ceiling collapsed, sending a shower of debris and embers down the living room. He gasped for air as thick smoke filled his lungs.Still struggling to breathe, he grabbed a metal chair and swung it at the window like a baseball bat. Shards of glass erupted like a burst of stars. He dived out with one swift motion, the unconscious man still on his back.They both landed on the overgrown lawn."Arghh!" His muscles ached at the impact of the fall. Ignoring the pain, he pushed himself back onto his feet, his eyes darting to the man who lay a distance from him. With what little force he had left, he dragged the man to safety and bent down to feel his pulse. Relief washed through him when he found one.The burlap sack slipped off, revealing a face that sent a jolt of recognition through him.With trembling hands, he reached for his pho
