  • CHAPTER 354

    The moment the words left Steven’s lips, the atmosphere in the room shifted. It wasn’t loud, worse yet it wasn’t chaotic but was quiet. Dangerously quiet, Lionel’s breathing became uneven as two men stepped forward and grabbed his arms firmly. His body stiffened immediately, panic rushing through his veins like ice water. "W-Wait… please… please…" he stammered, struggling slightly. But the men didn’t respond. They dragged him across the polished floor, his shoes scraping faintly against the marble. Every small sound echoed loudly in the silent room. Princewill watched quietly, his expression unreadable. He had known Steven for years, he had seen him angry. He had seen him cold, but this… this was different. Steven wasn’t just angry, he was deeply wounded. And a wounded man like Steven Kahuna was far more dangerous than an angry one. Lionel’s heart pounded violently as he was pushed into a chair at the center of the room. The chair wasn’t anything specia

  • CHAPTER 353

    The night was unusually quiet way too quiet. The kind of silence that made the walls feel heavier and the air feel colder. Steven Kahuna stood by the wide glass window of his penthouse, his hands tucked into his pockets, his gaze fixed on the glowing city below. The lights flickered endlessly, cars moved like distant insects, and life carried on as if nothing was wrong. But inside him… everything was wrong. Two weeks, just two weeks until the wedding. And yet, everything was falling apart, the rumors hadn't died instead they had grown and is growing with each passing second. Every passing day, another article surfaced, another whisper spread another suspicious glance followed him in meetings. Steven had never cared about public opinion before. But this time… it was different. Because this time, it threatened everything, his reputation, his marriage, his control. His phone buzzed quietly against the glass table behind him. Steven didn't move immediately. He

  • CHAPTER 252

    The days dragged by with unbearable slowness, each one heavier than the last. Yet, while time seemed to crawl, the tension moved in the opposite direction... growing, tightening, suffocating everything around it. Steven sat quietly in his office, his fingers resting against his temple as his eyes remained fixed on the calendar pinned to the wall. The date was circled boldly in red ink. Two weeks... only two weeks left before the wedding. The thought should have filled him with anticipation… with excitement… with certainty. Instead, it filled him with unease. Because nothing felt certain anymore. The scandal that had surfaced days ago refused to die. Like a stubborn fire, it continued to burn quietly beneath the surface, sending thin trails of smoke into every corner of his life. At first, it had only been whispers. Then quiet conversations. Then subtle glances. Now… it was everywhere. No one openly accused him at least not yet, but Steven knew better than anyon

    Back at the Guler mansion… Finn’s patience was wearing thin. He stood near the window, his arms folded. The butler returned quietly. “Sir…” Finn turned. “Yes?” “We still haven’t located Miss Dianna.” Finn frowned. “Her phone?” “It’s off.” That made his expression darken. “She turned off her phone?” “Yes, sir.” Finn inhaled slowly. “She knows I’m looking for her.” The butler nodded. Finn shook his head faintly. “This is unlike her… leaving little Leo behind.” He grabbed his phone again. He dialed her number. It went straight to voicemail. Finn’s jaw tightened, “Dianna…” He muttered quietly, then he spoke firmly. “Keep trying.” “Yes, sir.” The butler left again and Finn sat down slowly. His disappointment was growing. Because this wasn’t just childish behavior. This… could cause real damage and he knew it. Steven wasn’t just anyone anymore, he was powerful, influential. And soon… he would be tied to the Payne family. A scan

    Meanwhile… Steven stood by his window, his expression dark. His thoughts were sharp and focused. This wasn’t random, this wasn’t coincidence but deliberate. And he knew exactly who would benefit from this no one else but Dianna. He exhaled slowly, his phone still in his hand. He opened the message again, the email sent from Finn's account. The request to meet and everything lined up. Too perfectly. Steven’s jaw tightened. “She planned this…” He muttered quietly. He didn’t like confrontation but this… This wasn’t something he would ignore, he simply grabbed his coat. Within minutes, he was in his car. “Guler Mansion,” he instructed calmly. The driver nodded. “Yes, sir.” The car moved smoothly into the night. Steven leaned back, his expression calm. But his eyes… were really cold. ***** The Guler Mansion stood tall and elegant, its grand gates opening as Steven’s car approached. The guards recognized him immediately. Steven stepped out calm

    Luisa didn’t respond to that, instead, she sent something. His phone buzzed and he looked down. It was an email from Luisa in which he quickly opened it due to curiosity. His eyes scanned the first image, then the second, then the third and his jaw tightened. The photos of him and Dianna leaning close. Talking privately, standing close and from the angles it was taken, it looked intimate way too intimate. Steven exhaled sharply. “This isn't what it looks like.” Luisa’s voice came cold. “It never is.” Steven ran a hand through his hair. “She asked to meet… she said she needed help… that’s all.” Luisa didn’t sound convinced. “And you thought it was appropriate to meet her alone?” Steven frowned. “I didn’t think it would be an issue.” Luisa’s tone sharpened. “Everything is an issue when you’re about to marry my daughter.” Steven’s jaw tightened. “Luisa come on, I assure you—” “Do you still have feelings for her?” The question cut through the ai
