Chapter 251
At that moment, upon hearing what Princess Sophia just said, Tyler’s entire body froze for a heartbeat. His breath caught, and his eyes narrowed with an intensity that carried both shock and weight. He wasn’t expecting her to ask something like this, something so heavy that it almost felt like a curse being placed in his hands. His chest tightened as though invisible chains had wrapped around him.He stepped back slightly, his voice low but steady. “What is it that you really want me to do?” he asked, almost as if hoping she would take her words back. “You think something like that is so easy to promise? You think I can just say yes without knowing if it’s something within my reach?” He clenched his fists by his side, his tone now firmer. “Princess Sophia, if you’re asking me to take on a burden that could break me, it would be wrong of me to say yes just to comfort you. I won’t lie to you. I won’t give you an empty promise.”His gaze softened slightly as he leaned closer, his voice

At that moment, Princess Sophia then take a deep breath, her eyes soft yet filled with courage, and she said to Tyler, “I actually believe in you. I hope that you’ll be able to succeed in this. And maybe I’m jumping the gun right now, but… I feel like you’ll save me. Still, if it turns out not possible, please don’t hold yourself accountable. I won’t blame you. Just know that if the time comes and you take it, I’ll be glad it’s you. I’ll be grateful that you were the one who possessed it, who carried that part of me forward. That, to me, would still be enough.”Her voice trembled slightly, but her words were resolute. It was the sound of someone who had accepted both hope and fate in the same breath.Tyler, however, immediately shook his head, his gaze burning with a fire that allowed no space for defeat. “No,” he said firmly, his voice low but full of conviction. “You shouldn’t worry about that. Nobody’s taking anything. Not now. Not ever. I already told you, Sophia I’ll find another
Chapter 253
At that moment, before Evelyn could even say another word or end the call with her usual smug tone, a cold, sharp voice suddenly cut through the speaker. It was Tyler.His voice was calm but it wasn’t gentle. It was heavy, soaked in irritation, laced with the kind of disgust that didn’t need to be raised to strike deep. “Why are you so full of yourself, Evelyn?” he asked flatly, as if the very idea of her speaking irritated his ears. “Do you really think I care about anything you have to say? Honestly, I only picked up this call to hear what kind of rubbish would come out of your mouth this time. And you didn’t disappoint. It’s still the same nonsense, the same manipulative tone, like you’re still stuck in your teenage drama.”At that moment there was a pause. Evelyn tried to say something, but Tyler didn't let her speak.He continued, his tone colder now. “You haven’t grown. Not one bit. You walk around acting like you’re the prize. Like you’re too pretty to be ignored, too special t
Chapter 254
At that moment, Evelyn couldn’t even believe her eyes. She just stood there, staring blankly at the screen of her phone, her lips parted in disbelief. The call had ended. Not because of a network issue. Not because of battery. But because he Tyler ended it.Her heart pounded with rage as her hand trembled, still holding the phone to her ear even though the line was dead. Her face twitched. Her eyes narrowed. And then, almost like a volcano erupting, Evelyn exploded.“So this good-for-nothing fool actually ended the call on me?” she barked, her voice rising as she began pacing the floor with wild steps. “This good-for-nothing bastard… this prick…” Her hands were shaking now as she gripped the phone tighter. “He really had the guts to cut the call on me just because I was trying to be the better person? Just because I gave him a damn second chance?”Her voice cracked slightly, but it wasn’t from sadness it was fury. She slammed the phone down on the couch and let out a frustrated breath

At that moment, immediately, all eyes in the room snapped toward the door with startled confusion. The tension that had already been thick in the air grew even heavier as the doorknob slowly turned and the door creaked open. Every single one of them paused whatever they were doing, whatever they were about to say, as they waited to see who had entered unannounced.And then there he was. It was Evelyn’s father’s younger brother, and the moment he stepped into the room, there was something cold and unsettling about the way he moved. He wasn’t smiling. He wasn’t relaxed. No, he looked grim. His hand was gripping a sheet of paper tightly so tightly that the edges were already crumpled and from the way his lips were pressed into a hard line and his steps were firm but unhurried, it was obvious.Something was terribly wrong.He didn’t greet anyone. He didn’t even glance at them. He just walked straight inside with that paper in his hand like it carried the weight of a thousand bricks. His e

At that moment, Evelyn's father's eyes widened in disbelief, his voice trembling with both anger and confusion. “What the hell is this?” he shouted, slamming the document back onto the table. His voice echoed through the room. “Why would your father even do something like this? Is this a joke to him?”His hands were shaking, and his heart was pounding so fast that he could barely control his thoughts. “He actually gave everything everything that belongs to this family to Tyler?” he asked, his eyes darting between his brother and the document, like he was trying to make sense of an impossible dream.Then he turned slowly to his brother, his voice turning cold. “Just imagine. We’ve been given only two choices now either we stay in the family, stripped of everything, not expecting a single dime, just carrying the family name like beggars… or we leave the family and still get absolutely nothing. What kind of choice is that? What kind of father does this to his own children?”His fists cle

At that moment, upon hearing what his brother just said, Evelyn’s father’s eyes flew wide open like he’d just been struck by lightning. He took a sharp breath, chest rising heavily, as if the words themselves had punched the air out of his lungs.“What did you just say?” he asked slowly, his voice cold and confused at the same time. “Are you even listening to yourself? You want us to… to get rid of Father?” His face twisted in disbelief. “That’s out of it. That’s completely out of it! You think I have a hand in any of this madness? How could you even say something so cruel? You want to drag our own father into this because you’re angry?”He paused, trying to control the rage building inside him. His hands were clenched into fists, shaking by his sides. “I might be upset. No I am angry. Furious even. But not enough to betray the man who gave us life. Not enough to turn against the one who raised us just because we don’t like his decision. What kind of sons would that make us?”But befo

Her husband, heart pounding, tried for a calming hand on the table’s edge, tried to smooth the ripples that had spread across the room since the envelopes had been opened. “Listen to him,” his younger brother urged, not cruelly but with necessary clarity. “We’re not calling for blood. We’re not plotting murder. What I mean is that we must neutralize this foolish, so that it cannot be executed. We must make it impossible for him to sign away our inheritance on a whim, under influence, or in a moment of senility. We must find whatever measures keep our father from doing further harm to the lineage he’s supposed to protect.”He let the idea hang between them, practical and cold, if it must be dirty so be it, the kind of family politics people pretended didn’t exist, but it was the work that saved farms from foreclosure and names from ruin. Evelyn’s mother, stung by the reality, nodded slowly. Hope flickered in her chest like a reluctant candle if they moved quickly, if they marshaled t

At that moment, upon hearing what Evelyn just said those words that cracked through the air like thunder her father's expression shifted sharply. His eyes, once still with deceptive calm, now flared with outrage.He slammed his hand on the armrest, his voice slicing through the tension like a whip.“Keep your mouth shut!” he barked, his tone shaking the entire room.Everyone turned instantly.“What nonsense are you spitting out of your mouth, Evelyn?” he continued, rising to his feet. “Why would you stand here and accuse your own uncle my own brother because of what that good-for-nothing bastard said? Do you even know what you’re saying?”His face flushed with rage, his finger pointed directly at her like she was a stranger who had crossed a sacred line.“You should apologize to your uncle immediately! This is not only shameful… it is disgusting!”But Evelyn didn’t flinch.She stood there, her breathing growing heavier as she slowly turned her eyes toward the man she had just accused
Chapter 260
At that moment, Evelyn's father's brother glanced briefly at his brother, who stood quietly near the corner, nodding with calm approval. He caught the man's subtle gesture of agreement and smiled faintly to himself, hiding his satisfaction beneath a mask of concern.“No problem,” he said confidently, his voice smooth, assured. “I’ll handle the situation perfectly fine. Just be on standby in case I need any support. All hands have to be ready. This thing needs to be done clean and fast.”Evelyn’s father gave him a solemn nod in return. There was no need for more words. Trust had been exchanged at least on the surface.Without another glance, Evelyn’s uncle turned and walked out of the room. His footsteps were steady, his expression composed. But the moment he stepped out of sight, his entire demeanor shifted. A cruel smirk slowly formed on his face as he walked down the hallway.He had done it.He had finally convinced his brother to side with him. One piece of the puzzle had fallen in
