It was late into the night at Amelia's place, and dinner was ready at the dining table when the doorbell rang.

Amelia left and soon returned with Ava who was excited to see William.

She rushed quickly to sit beside him and whispered, "Brother-in-law, you are here," Pretending she didn't know of his presence when she had truly come because she had eavesdropped on his conversation with Amelia earlier.

Amelia, who was watching, frowned slightly but didn't think much about it and joined them over the table.

She barely sat when the doorbell rang again.

The three stared at each other until Amelia asked her sister, "Did you come with someone?"

She had only agreed to her sister joining her for dinner that night and no one else.

Ava shook her head and also asked, "Did you invite someone else? Could just be the guards?"

"That's right." Amelia headed for the door, and Ava immediately took this as her opportunity to get closer to William.

"Brother-in-law, are you trying to avoid me? You have to b

  • 267: Men In Black

    Felicity stood frozen for a moment, her eyes widening in shock at the sight of Amelia Sinclair standing before her. This was the same Amelia Sinclair that could only ever be seen in magazines and news reports. The same Amelia Sinclair who was rumored to be romantically involved with—No. That couldn’t be.Still trying to process the shock, she quickly cleared her throat and composed herself, “Miss Sinclair… You’re looking for the bo-- I mean William.... Mr. Miller?”“He’s not here,” she added hesitantly, but Amelia didn’t even wait to hear the rest. Without another word, she turned around and hurried out of the building.Felicity blinked. Was it really true? If an eminent beauty can come here in search of her Boss Could the rumors be real? That Amelia Sinclair was involved with him—the same man they had ridiculed for picking up trash?Outside, Amelia walked briskly toward her car, her heart pounding. Something wasn’t right. She could feel it, or maybe she was overreacting. With t

  • 266: The Last Snow

    A heavy steel door creaked open, followed by the slow sound of wheels rolling across the floor.The dim bulb overhead the room flickered. Harry Snow wheeled himself inside, his expression void of emotion.At the center of the room sat Tracey Wilson, tied securely to a chair, her wrists and ankles bound tightly.Her once high-class clothes were crumpled, her hair tangled, and her face was marked with dried tears.The moment she saw Harry, muffled groans came from her throat as she chewed against the restraints over her mouth. Her body trembled. Harry watched her struggle. Then, without a word, he leaned forward and yanked the gag loose."Help! Help me! Something please, you have to help me! "Her scream echoed in the small room, filled with desperation.Harry didn’t even flinch. Instead, he calmly raised a gun, pointing the barrel straight at her forehead. His voice was low, almost as if he was bored."If you keep screaming like a mad dog, then I’ll put you down like one"Tracey

  • 265: I KNOW WHO YOU ARE

    Elizabeth's loud voice rang out as she threw accusations in William’s direction.“You still refuse to admit it, don’t you?!” she spat out disdainfully, her eyes red with fury, “What did you do to my daughter, William? Where is my Tracey?”Natalie stood beside her, shaking, “I knew it! You're good for nothing trash picking Bastard; you're a monster! First my lovely niece, Anna, now Tracey! Are you so twisted that you’d hurt the women in our family just because we don't want to give you money?”Peter took a threatening step forward but was still scared of William, “You better hurry up and start talking before we make you talk!”The Wilsons all appeared to have their own versions of what had happened, none of them appear to even be considering that William himself was still piecing the truth together.But William. He wasn’t interested in their nonsense.His mind was working through the facts, trying to understand what Harry was up to.Harry Snow was after something. He always had been.

  • 264: The ex-son-in-law

    William Miller stepped out of his car and faced the grand entrance of the Wilson residence. The towering gates, the stone pathway, and the excess decorations all remained the same, but everything about this place now felt distant, like a chapter he had closed. As he stood there, something unexpected stirred within him. Memories flooded back to the early days of his marriage when Tracey had treated him with at least some warmth. Anna, too, had once been kind, often sneaking him food when her mother and aunt deliberately starved him. But those days had vanished, replaced by ridicule, humiliation, and, ultimately, betrayal. Tracey had chosen another man over him; a man who obviously didn’t love her but merely sought to use her. Yet, she was too blinded by wealth to see it. William exhaled sharply, his gaze turning cold. Pushing open the doors, he walked in. The moment Elizabeth Wilson laid eyes on him, her expression twisted into one of disgust. Sitting on a luxurious couc

  • 263: They're Gone

    Amelia stepped out of her sleek Rolls-royce Phantom and took in the grand sight of the Sinclair Mansion. It had not been a while since she’d come home, but tonight, the place seemed more alive than usual. The warm glow of the chandeliers illuminated the entrance, and as she made her way inside, she was immediately greeted by the familiar voice of her sister . "You're finally back!" Anna rushed forward, excitement in her eyes. Without wasting a second, she grinned mischievously "Did you come to tell me about brother-in-law? Dad told me already"Amelia's steps faltered, and she shot her younger sister a glare, "Anna, how many times do I have to tell you? Stop calling him that""But why?" Anna crossed her arms stubbornly "Aren’t you going to marry him in the future?"Amelia opened her mouth to respond but found herself at a loss for words. Marry William? She had never really put thought into it. What started as a pretend relationship to keep her family off her back had somehow shi

  • 262: A Desperate Call For Help

    Harry Snow sat motionless in his wheelchair, his fingers trembling against his phone screen, scrolling through his contact list. He had to be wrong. There had to be a way out of this. Someone had to help him.His first call went to an old family connection, someone his father had worked with in the past. The line rang twice before a familiar voice answered."Harry? How are you—""I need your help," Harry cut in, his voice low but firm. "My family… they’re gone. Something happened, and I need—""Stop right there." The man's tone turned sharp. "Don't ever call me again. Do you have any idea what kind of force wiped out your family? If I even speak to you for too long, my own family could be next"Harry’s stomach twisted, "You—You can’t be serious. You—""Forget that I exist, Harry"The call ended.Harry gritted his teeth, anger pushing past his fear. He dialed another number, a man even more powerful, one who had shared drinks with his father at lavish parties.This time, the momen

  • 261: Borrowed Time

    A sharp pain went through Harry Snow’s head as he slowly opened his eyes. His head throbbed, and when he tried to move, a tight bandage around his forehead reminded him of his injuries.He turned his head slightly, only to see Tracey Wilson seated beside the bed, her expression filled with worrisome concern. She noticed his movement and leaned forward in excitement. "You're awake," Her voice was soft with a hint of relief, "What happened to you? I found you unconscious in my study. There was no one around to help me take you to the hospital, so I did what I could"Harry barely acknowledged her words. His mind was still sluggish, but one thought clawed its way through the fog of his mind, his family. Ignoring the dizziness that came with his sudden movement, he reached for his phone on the nightstand and quickly dialed his father’s number.No response.He redialed. The call rang and rang before switching to voicemail.Frowning, he tried his mother next.Same result. Then his unc

  • 260: He is my Brother

    Meanwhile, Evelyn sat in her dimly lit room, her fingers nervously tapping against the edge of her laptop. With a deep breath, she pressed the button to connect to the video call. The screen flickered momentarily before the familiar, haggard face of Old Master Miller appeared. His eyes were clouded with anger. "Why haven't you returned home, Evelyn?" His voice was sharp, almost accusing, the calm demeanor he once held now gone, "You’ve ignored my orders, and now you're putting yourself at risk. I gave you clear instructions!"Evelyn’s heart sank, the weight of his anger pressing down on her. "Grandfather, I didn’t ignore you. I just... I had to make sure William was safe. I couldn’t leave until I knew he was alright""You should have come back immediately!" Old Master Miller interrupted, his voice filled with frustration. "You’re not trained for this, Evelyn. You’ve been far too close to all of this, and now you’re playing with fire "Evelyn clenched her fists, her eyes narrowing

  • 259: Where Is Harry Snow?

    He took a step forward, his voice calm but filled with authority. “Tell me where Harry Snow is.”The room fell into a deeper silence.. The Snow family members exchanged glances, their eyes filled with fear and defiance. None of them dared to meet William’s gaze, and the cold weight of their silence was deafening. It was clear they had already chosen their path. They would never reveal the location of Harry, no matter the cost.William's expression remained stoic, but he repeated the question, his voice firmer this time. “Where is Harry Snow?”For a long moment, there was no response. Not a word. Not a whisper.And then, one by one, the Snow family members bowed their heads in unison, lowering themselves to the floor. It was a gesture of submissionbut one filled with absolute resolve. They had chosen to die rather than betray their heir.“We would rather die than reveal his location,” one of the elders said quietly, his voice trembling with both fear and pride.William’s eyes narrowe
