Chapter 89
Charlotte’s tired, sunken eyes went completely wide, staring blindly at the small glass box resting on the bright stage. Even through the thick, foggy pain ruining her dying brain, she recognized the glowing, green plant instantly. It was the legendary Nine-Sun Neuro-Restorative Root, something she had only ever seen in old, dusty medical books from a hundred years ago.It was the only medicine in the entire world that could heal broken brain cells and stop the terrible pain squeezing her head. Charlotte knew that if she could just eat a tiny piece of that glowing root, her brain would completely heal in minutes. She would not end up paralyzed in a bed; she would be the proud, powerful Chairwoman of the Sterling family once again."Victoria! You have to bid on it!" Charlotte whispered hoarsely, grabbing her sister’s dark sleeve with weak, shaking fingers. "Use the last emergency credit line we have left! I do not care how much it costs, Victoria, we absolutely must buy that root!""Bu

Victoria Sterling stood completely frozen on the soft red carpet, her hands pressed tightly over her mouth in pure, unbelievable shock. Her heart pounded violently against her ribs like a trapped bird trying to escape a dark cage. She stared with wide, terrified eyes as the six highest-ranking military commanders in the entire province stood perfectly still, saluting Ethan Vance.These men controlled entire armies and answered only to the supreme government leader, yet they were bowing their heads to the man who used to wash her dirty dishes. Ethan simply nodded his head once to the commanders, his handsome face perfectly calm and totally bored by their massive show of deep respect. The soldiers quickly stepped aside, forming a solid, protective wall of dark green uniforms to guard his path.They gently guided Ethan and Chloe away from the dirty floor where Victoria and Charlotte were stuck, leading them straight toward the front of the huge hall. The massive crowd of rich investors a

The morning sun shined brightly over the giant glass dome of the Grand Royal Exhibition Center in the middle of the city. Today was the opening day of the Centennial Oakhaven Medical and Enterprise Summit, the biggest corporate event of the entire year. More than twelve hundred wealthy businessmen, international investors, and powerful government leaders had gathered to buy and sell the newest medical inventions.Expensive luxury cars lined the wide driveway, dropping off rich executives wearing perfectly tailored suits and bright, confident smiles. Inside the massive building, the air buzzed loudly with the sound of money changing hands and huge business deals being made. Huge digital screens flashed brightly on the walls, showing the faces of the most powerful people in the entire province.In a dark, quiet corner of the secondary hallway, far away from the bright main stage, the remains of the proud Sterling family sat completely forgotten. Victoria Sterling pushed a heavy silver w
Chapter 86
Julian stood quietly in his dark office, ignoring the deep pain shooting up his ruined arm. He wrapped a thick, white bandage tightly around the deep wound Harper had made with the heavy bronze horse, moving as quickly as possible. His mind was calculating everything with cold, cruel speed, knowing his time in the Sterling house was almost up.Harper had run away into the stormy night with the fake DNA test and the offshore bank records. Julian knew she was heading straight to Ethan Vance or the local police, and once they saw the papers, his rich life would be over. The authorities would freeze the hidden accounts and arrest him for massive theft and medical fraud.He needed to completely empty the Sterling family of every last penny they owned before the sun came up. He threw his bloody shirt onto the rug, pulled on a clean, expensive black sweater, and grabbed a thick stack of legal papers from his desk. He walked quickly down the silent hallway, heading directly toward the large m

Chloe did not hesitate to help; she quickly pulled Harper fully inside and slammed the heavy door shut against the howling storm. She wrapped the thick, warm towel tightly around Harper’s trembling shoulders, gently pulling the wet hair out of the young girl's pale face. Grandfather Joseph walked out of the living room, his kind, old eyes filling with deep pity at the sight of the battered, bleeding child on his floor.Ethan stepped calmly out from the hallway, wearing a simple dark sweater that made his broad shoulders look incredibly strong. His handsome face was perfectly calm as he looked down at the youngest Sterling sister shivering weakly on his wooden floor. The very moment Harper saw Ethan’s familiar face, the heavy guilt and terror inside her completely broke her spirit.She pushed the warm towel away and forced herself up onto her bleeding, bruised knees. She pressed her wet forehead completely flat against the wooden floorboards, bowing before him in absolute, total surrend
Chapter 84
The dark, heavy shadows of the private study seemed to close in completely around Harper’s small body. The thick smell of expensive cologne mixed with Julian’s hot, ragged breath as he pushed her firmly against the hard wall. The cold, sharp edge of his folding knife rested directly against the fragile skin of her neck, sending a fresh wave of panic through her veins. A tiny bead of warm blood swelled from the shallow scratch, sliding slowly down her pale skin like a single, dark tear."You are so quiet, little sister," Julian whispered, his handsome face twisting into a vile, predatory sneer that made her stomach turn. "You always hid behind Victoria and Charlotte, pretending to be a pure, innocent little angel who never did anything wrong. But nobody is coming to save you now, because the mighty Sterlings are ruined, and your precious sisters are too busy crying over their frozen bank accounts."Harper trembled violently, her large eyes wide with sheer, paralyzing terror as she stare
