Chapter: 102 Part 3: Alexander Walks Into His Own Trap
Alexander didn't answer immediately. For a moment, his eyes remained fixed on hers. “I was.”The simple response made Aurelia's chest tighten. She lowered her gaze. “I wanted to ask you about that.”Alexander was silent for a moment before he finally responded: “We can talk about everything.”Aurelia looked up, surprised by how calm he sounded. “You're not angry?”Alexander held her gaze. “I've already been angry.”Aurelia's lips parted, but no words came. There was something devastating about the way he said it. He wasn't denying his anger. He wasn't pretending that what happened hadn't hurt him.He was simply telling her that he had already lived through the worst of it and had somehow come out on the other side.Nahir watched the exchange closely. He couldn't understand it.Alexander should have been furious. He should have been demanding answers.He should have been confronting Aurelia about the divorce, the betrayal, the injuries, and everything else that had happened. Instead, h
Chapter: 102 Part 4: Alexander Walks Into His Own Trap
A faint, almost sad smile appeared on Aurelia's face. “I thought you might change your mind.”“I don't break promises.”Her eyes lowered. “I know.”For a moment, memories flooded her mind. She remembered how many promises Alexander had kept during their marriage. How many times he had appeared when she needed help.How many problems he had quietly solved without asking for recognition. How many nights he had waited for her even when she had made it clear that she would rather be somewhere else. Back then, she had believed he would always remain beside her.Now she wasn't even certain he would look at her the same way again, and the realization frightened her more than she wanted to admit.Nahir, however, had stopped thinking about their marriage. His entire mind was focused on Clara. He needed to know where she was. He needed to know whether Tiger Bro had found her.Most importantly, he needed to know whether the operation was still moving according to plan. His hand slipped toward hi
Chapter: 103 Part 1: The Question That Changes Everything
The waiter stood beside the table with the tray balanced steadily in his hands, but Nahir could not bring himself to look away from him.Something about the way the man had glanced toward Alexander unsettled him. It had not been the casual look of an employee waiting for a customer's request.There had been something deliberate in it, almost as though the waiter were waiting for permission before taking his next step.Nahir narrowed his eyes, trying to understand what he had just seen, but before he could question it, Aurelia finally broke the silence that had settled over the VVIP lounge. “I didn't think you would come.”Her voice was softer than she had intended, and the uncertainty beneath it was impossible to hide.Alexander shifted his attention toward her. “I said I would.”Aurelia lowered her eyes, her fingers tightening slightly around the edge of the table. “I know, but after everything that happened…” She hesitated before continuing. “I thought you might change your mind.”A
Chapter: 103 Part 2: The Question That Changes Everything
As though he knew there was something hidden beneath the polite smile and carefully chosen words.Now, sitting in a private lounge inside a hotel that appeared to belong entirely to Alexander, Nahir felt that same sensation returning. Still, he refused to back down.His real frustration had never been about the five-minute delay. It was on the note that Alexander had come without Clara. Where was she? Why had Alexander come alone? Why had nobody reported seeing her? And more importantly, why did Alexander look so calm?Nahir stared at him for several seconds before finally asking the question that had been burning inside him. “So you didn't come with your Clara?”Aurelia's expression immediately changed. “Nahir, what are you doing?”But he continued as though he had not heard her. “Let me guess.”A mocking smile appeared on his face. “She dumped you, and now you're coming back for Aurelia.”Alexander said nothing for a moment; he simply looked at Nahir, then a quiet laugh escaped him
Chapter: 103 Part 3: The Question That Changes Everything
Nahir remained where he was for another second, his expression hardening the moment her back was turned. His hands curled into fists; he could not afford to lose his temper. Not now.Not when Alexander was finally sitting directly in front of him. More importantly, he could not allow his concern about Clara to expose him.If Alexander had deliberately left her somewhere else, Nahir needed to know why. Perhaps Clara was hidden nearby. Perhaps Alexander had brought her into the building through another entrance. Perhaps his people were already waiting somewhere outside.There were too many possibilities, and every unanswered question made Nahir's unease grow. He needed information, and the only way to get it was to remain calm.After taking one more breath, Nahir walked back toward the table. “Alexander.”Alexander looked at him.Nahir forced himself to smile. “I apologize for what I said.”Alexander offered no response. “I shouldn't have spoken to you that way.”Still, Alexander said n
Chapter: 103 Part 4: The Question That Changes Everything
Alexander leaned back slightly in his chair.Aurelia's voice trembled as she continued. “I thought you did all this because you wanted us to reconcile.”Alexander looked at her for a long moment, then his gaze drifted around the VVIP lounge; everything had been prepared perfectly.The hotel had been emptied, the meeting room had been secured, every employee working inside had been given strict instructions.Aurelia had interpreted those arrangements as romantic gestures.But Alexander had never promised her anything of the sort. He had promised to meet her. Nothing more. He had come because he had given his word.Aurelia seemed to realize that distinction at the same moment. The hope in her eyes slowly gave way to uncertainty. “Then why did you book this entire hotel?”Alexander did not answer immediately.Nahir watched him closely because that question mattered More than Aurelia realized.If Alexander revealed the real reason he had arranged everything, Nahir's entire plan could coll
Chapter: 104 Part 1: The Poisoned Table
Nahir stared at the message on his phone for several long seconds.The plan has changed. Do not make any move until further instructions.His thumb hovered motionlessly above the screen. For a brief moment, he considered calling back and demanding an explanation, but the thought died almost as quickly as it appeared.He had already given the necessary orders, and reversing them now could create more problems than it solved.Clara was still nowhere to be found around the hotel.The search for her had yielded nothing, and every additional minute his people spent looking for her increased the possibility that someone would notice what they were doing.If she was not at the hotel, there was little point in continuing to waste valuable time searching for her. The priority had changed.Alexander was sitting directly in front of him; for Nahir, that was enough.He locked his phone and slipped it back into his pocket before forcing himself to take a slow breath. There was no reason to panic.
Chapter: 104 Part 2: The Poisoned Table
Most importantly, he didn't know that somewhere within the elaborate meal now being prepared, Nahir's own people had already succeeded in placing the danger they had intended for Alexander.The staff continued moving naturally around the room. No one raised an alarm. No one exposed the operation. No one gave Nahir a reason to suspect that the ground beneath him had already begun to shift.A few minutes later, the doors opened once again.Two waiters entered carrying several large trays between them. They moved with practiced precision, placing one dish after another on the table while a second group of staff followed with additional plates, cutlery, and bottles of wine.Aurelia's eyes widened as the table slowly disappeared beneath the extravagant spread.The presentation was far beyond what she had expected. Every dish had been arranged with painstaking care, and the sheer amount of food made the gathering look more like a private celebration than an uncomfortable meeting between two
Chapter: 104 Part 3: The Poisoned Table
Nahir shifted impatiently in his chair; he had no interest in their emotional conversation. His attention remained fixed on Alexander and the meal in front of him; the food was finally on the table, and that was what mattered.He watched as the staff made their final adjustments before stepping away.Nahir couldn't identify exactly where the danger had been placed; that had never been part of his instructions, and he had deliberately avoided asking too many questions.But he knew one thing: Alexander's portion had been compromised. Nahir's heartbeat quickened. The plan was finally moving. He lowered his eyes to hide the satisfaction threatening to appear on his face.Alexander noticed. Of course he noticed. Yet he said nothing. Instead, he reached toward the table.Aurelia watched him carefully. “Alexander…”He looked at her. “You should eat.”She hesitated. “Eat?”“Yes.” Alexander gestured toward the extravagant meal. “Have the best meal and drink the most expensive wine.”Aurelia st
Chapter: 104 Part 4: The Poisoned Table
Aurelia slowly raised her eyes. “I didn't mean—”“I know what you meant.” Alexander's voice remained calm. “That is why I'm not angry anymore.”Aurelia's eyes began to glisten. “Then what are you?”Alexander paused. “Tired.”The single word carried more weight than anger ever could have.Aurelia lowered her gaze, fighting against the emotions rising in her chest. “I wish I had known.”Alexander looked at her for several seconds. “You had three years to know me.”She had no answer.Nahir shifted impatiently in his chair. His patience was beginning to wear thin. The meal was sitting directly in front of Alexander. Why wasn't he eating?The question irritated him more with every passing second. He needed Alexander to relax. He needed him to stop talking. Most importantly, he needed him to take the next step.Nahir reached for his glass and took a small sip of water, using the movement to conceal his growing impatience. At that exact moment, Alexander's eyes briefly moved toward him.Nahi
