Five minutes after, Micah left the office. They had promised each other to meet again that night. It was a promise thick with old emotions. They would spend the night together and make love—the way they used to, even back when she was still with Lucas. Some things never really died, and some choices were too tempting to ignore.

Left alone, she turned her attention to the ring on her finger. She raised her hand slowly, letting the sunlight from the window strike it. The way it sparkled almost blinded her, glittering like temptation itself. With the extravagant lifestyle Micah always lived—his 30k monthly allowance, the sports cars, the designer watches—there was no doubt in her mind. This ring wasn’t just expensive. It was obscenely expensive. She was more than a hundred percent certain.

Then, her eyes shifted to the flower Micah had dropped on her desk. For years, she had hated the gesture. She had always thought it childish, unnecessary. Flowers, to her, symbolized apologies or empty

  • Chapter Eighty Five Call Lucas

    Jeruel walked through the hallway behind Anastasia, her personal assistant. They were too deep in their conversation about the event that would soon begin that day to notice the shadow lingering at the edge of the hallway, silently staring at them. The air carried a faint tension, but their voices drowned it out.Anastasia reached the office door and pulled the handle down. The door clicked open, and she stepped inside with Jeruel right behind her, their words spilling into the room like they carried their own rhythm.She paused once inside, her brow furrowed. “There has been a little bit of change here,” she said softly, though there was weight in her tone. Jeruel walked forward, listening.Anastasia had been the last to leave the building yesterday. Jeruel had gone to see Lucas, finally, their first official date as lovers. It had been perfect, a night carefully etched into memory, which left Anastasia in charge of locking up and making sure everything was in order. She was diligent

  • Chapter Eighty Four Get Inside 

    “The left the door unlocked?” Isla muttered under her breath, her voice low and sharp as she stepped inside.The thought was concerning. It was very unlikely that a brand new fashion hub, just recently furnished and already attracting attention, would ever be left unlocked throughout the night. That was a basic rule of business in Velmoria. Every outlet that engaged in trading or service, no matter how small, always made sure to lock their doors tight once they closed. People here knew the city could turn unpredictable in the dead of night. No one wanted to risk a theft or an incident.But Jeruel? She had left her fashion hub open?Isla smirked to herself. She tilted her head slightly as though the discovery amused her. It was not her concern that Jeruel had made such a careless mistake, but it certainly played to her advantage. She widened her smile. This lapse made everything easier for her, almost too easy.She stepped further, letting her heels click lightly against the floor unti

  • Chapter Eighty Three The Kidnap

    Isla gulped down a whole bottle of whisky.She was not the type to drink, but tonight was different. Tonight, only whisky could bury the weight of her frustration. The bitter liquid burned down her throat, yet the fire inside her chest was much stronger than the alcohol.She sat on the couch all night, motionless, staring into the city through the glassy wall. She had drawn back the curtains earlier just so she could see the bright lights flooding the night sky and bouncing off the streets below. The city seemed alive, yet she felt like the only one in it who was suffocating.Her thoughts spiraled endlessly, restless like a student preparing to defend her lifelong project before respected judges at dawn. Every possible scenario, every regret, every fear kept circling her mind.She could not ignore the truth: Lucas Virelis had already declared his love for Jeruel. To approach him again, to beg, would no longer be seen as persistence but harassment. The humiliation alone would break her

  • Chapter Eighty Two What Happened To The Virellis Madam 

    Twenty Two years ago,The world seemed far simpler, though beneath the surface, storms were already brewing. Lucas was just two years old then, too innocent to understand that the fate of his family was about to change forever. Adrian and his beautiful wife, Serena Virellis, along with their son, Lucas Virellis, had planned a long-awaited vacation to the Caribbean. It was supposed to be a time of peace, joy, and memories, a pause from the heavy burdens of business.In the business world, however, peace was rare. Adrian had recently partnered with a group of influential men for a business opportunity projected to bring billions in profit. Among those men stood Lorenzo, a man whose ambition burned as hot as his pride.Adrian, being the largest contributor in the venture, had secured, through a written agreement, the right to the largest share of the profit. It was only fair. He had invested the most, carried the greatest risk, and so he was promised the greatest reward.But Lorenzo disa

  • Chapter Eighty One Lorenzo Arrived Back From Italy 

    Lorenzo stepped into his villa, the polished marble floors reflecting the dim golden glow of the chandelier above. The place was quiet, almost unnervingly so, but that was exactly how he wanted it after such a long day.Just three hours ago, he had been seated comfortably inside his private jet, soaring from Italy back to Velmoria. The flight had been smooth, but his mind wasn’t. He had just concluded a meeting with one of Italy’s most feared mafia lords, Don Malachai Vercetti. Deals with men like Malachai were never simple handshakes; they carried consequences, risks, and rewards that could make or destroy an empire.This time, the reward was staggering. They had closed a deal together and split the profit—10 billion US dollars, divided equally.But enormous profits came with enormous shadows. The sum was far too large to take directly to the bank. Lorenzo knew the Velmorian Authority would never overlook a sudden deposit of such magnitude. A single day transaction like that would ra
