The Heiress Escape
"Did you think I’d just let you go?"
Suzanne’s grip on her son tightened as Charles took a slow step forward, his smirk curling like smoke in the air.
"I sent you the damn divorce papers, Charles. Sign them and leave."
He chuckled. "Oh, I got them." Another step. "But I don’t sign away what’s mine."
She backed up. "I am not yours. I stopped being yours the night you betrayed me."
His jaw clenched. The silence stretched—thick, suffocating—before he lunged.
Suzanne barely had time to gasp before his hands were on her, ripping their son from her arms.
The boy hit the couch with a soft thud and let out a startled cry.
"You son of a—!" She shoved at him, clawing, struggling, but he was stronger. His hands dug into her waist, yanking her against him, his breath hot and reeking of alcohol.
"You’re mine, Suzanne," he growled, fingers digging into her skin. "And if I can’t have you—" his grip tightened, his lips brushing her ear, "no one will."
Then—CRACK!
Charles gone—ripped off her, sent flying across the room.
Suzanne gasped, chest heaving, scrambling back just as her attacker crashed into a table.
A voice, dark and furious, sliced through the chaos.
"Touch her again, and I’ll kill you."
Her heart stopped.
She knew that voice.
Liam Carter.
