Chapter 141
Damon moved fast. He grabbed Celia's arm and pulled her away from the windows, pushing her toward the center of the room where no one outside could see them."Stay low," he said, his voice tight but controlled.Celia's breathing quickened as the reality hit her. Someone was watching them right now. Someone had been close enough to take that photo through the window just seconds ago."He's outside?" she whispered, her voice shaking. "Right now?"Damon was already on his phone, calling Anthony. "We've got eyes on the house. Someone's watching from outside. Get your team here now and look around the outside. I want whoever took that photo found in the next five minutes."He ended the call and turned back to Celia. "Come with me. We're going upstairs where there are no ground-level windows."They moved quickly up the stairs, Damon keeping himself between Celia and any possible sightlines. Once they reached his bedroom on the second floor, he locked the door and checked every window to mak

Damon opened the door slightly, keeping his body blocking the entrance. "Can I help you?"The woman looked up at him with tired eyes. "Are you Damon?""Depends on who's asking.""My name is Rachel Harris. I'm Marcus Blackwell's executive assistant." She paused, her voice dropping. "And I'm here to warn you. My boss is not stable. What he's planning for Miss Greene, it's worse than you think."Damon opened the door wider. "Come inside."Rachel entered quickly, her eyes darting to Celia who had come into the hallway. "Miss Greene, I'm so sorry for everything that's happened. I tried to talk him out of this but he won't listen.""What exactly is he planning?" Damon asked.Rachel reached into her briefcase and pulled out a folder. Her hands were shaking as she handed it to Damon. "These are copies of documents I found in his office. He's been planning this for months."Damon opened the folder and felt his blood run cold. Inside were photos of Celia, dozens of them, taken over the past six
Chapter 139
Damon crushed the card in his fist and tossed the black roses into the trash. His mind was already working through possibilities, eliminating suspects one by one. Lucas was locked up. Serena was in the hospital. Michael didn't have the resources to pull something like this off from Sydney."Damon, you're scaring me," Celia said quietly. "Who is this person? Why do they keep saying I belong to them?"He turned to face her, forcing his expression to soften. "I don't know yet, but I'm going to find out. Did you see who delivered these?""No. I heard the doorbell and when I opened it, the flowers were just sitting there. No delivery person, no car, nothing."That meant whoever did this had been watching the house, waiting for the right moment. They knew Damon had left for the meeting with Edward. They knew Celia was alone.Anthony appeared in the doorway, his phone pressed to his ear. He ended the call and looked at Damon. "Security footage shows a courier van dropping off the package, bu
Chapter 138
Damon ended the call with Anthony and turned back to Celia. "I'm going to meet him.""Are you crazy?" Celia stood up, her voice rising. "What if it's dangerous? What if he blames you for what happened to Lucas?""I can handle myself," Damon said calmly. "Besides, if Edward wanted revenge, he wouldn't request a formal meeting. He'd come after me directly."Celia crossed her arms. "Then I'm coming with you.""No.""Why not?"Damon told her about every threatening message he had received. Celia gasped in shock, who could it be? She didn’t know anyone from Sydney."Because if something does happen, I need to know you're safe," Damon explained. "You're the target of those threatening messages, remember? Whoever sent them is still out there."Celia's expression softened but she didn't back down. "And you're the one who almost got killed last night. You think I can just sit here and wait while you walk into a meeting with the father of the man who tried to murder you?"Damon stepped closer t
Chapter 137
Michael's stomach dropped. "Congratulations for what?"The doctor's smile widened. "Your girlfriend is pregnant. About six weeks along."The words hit Michael like a truck. His mind went blank. Pregnant? Serena was pregnant?"That... that can't be right," Michael stammered. "Are you sure?""We ran tests last night after she collapsed," the doctor explained. "The results are clear. She's definitely pregnant."Michael felt like the room was spinning. This couldn't be happening. Not now. Not when he was planning to destroy her."Is that why she passed out?" Michael asked, trying to keep his voice steady."Partially. The pregnancy made her body more vulnerable to stress. Whatever happened yesterday overwhelmed her system." The doctor checked Serena's chart. "She needs rest and shouldn't be under any pressure. Stress could harm both her and the baby."Michael nodded numbly. The doctor said something else, but Michael barely heard it. His thoughts were racing too fast.When the doctor and n
Chapter 136
Michael walked into Serena's hospital room with a knowing smirk on his face.She hadn't opened her eyes since she'd passed out yesterday, and Michael couldn't help but feel a surge of satisfaction.He moved closer to her bed. She looked pale and almost innocent, as if she'd never done anything wrong, but he knew better. Inside that angelic appearance, a devil lurked.Soon, he would transfer his own darkness into her. Together, they would consume her from within and destroy her completely.His smirk widened as he spoke."You thought you could stress my mother until she collapsed? That there'd be no consequences?" He leaned forward. "No, Serena. I'm glad you passed out too. Now you know exactly what you put my mother through."He sank into the chair beside her bed. "Crazy woman," he muttered. "I don't think I ever loved you. I was just obsessed, because you seduced me. But now everything's clear. Not even a trace of that obsession remains."His expression hardened. "And if you think you
