George didn't say anything except raise his eyes. Observing George's expression, Carol gave a fake smile, "Yes mom, George is right. She did this for her own sake. She was kidnapped. What if I was the one who was kidnapped. I would have done the same."George narrowed his eyes and asked, "I never said that she was kidnapped."Both Carol and Mary's faces froze. After a second, Carol said, "Oh George, it's my dad who said this."George gave a little nodding.Both Carol and Mary took a deep breath. Out of blue, Carol asked, "So, you aren't going to divorce Jenny right?"George didn't say anything. He was silently looking at Carol's eyes. Since the day he had met these two women, he always had a strange feeling toward them. This feeling was unpleasant. But he didn't know why, the more he tries to distance themselves, the more they appear in front of him.He stood up and said, "If you want to talk to Jenny, let me send her here."George didn't want to talk to them. So, he decided to let Je

Mary Antao suddenly asked, "Carol, how do you manage to do this? Tell me!"Carol smiled and said, "Mom, that's simple. I was in the mansion when I saw a few men assembled in the hall waiting for dad. I just asked them the reason. They told me that they were having some proof regarding Jenny and they have done their work. I just told them that I would give it to dad.Later, when I checked the Pendrive, I saw these things. So, dad was trying to save his daughter from the world. And I don't want that. So, I call two-three editors of certain newspapers and media agencies and handed those things."Mary Antao was happy. She said, "After Jenny would go to jail, there won't be any chance for Jennifer. Everything would be yours. And what more, you can marry George, he is oh-so-handsome."Carol smiled, "Yeah! I was into him. But I don't know how suddenly Jenny impressed him and did those things."Mary gave a hooked smile, "Jenny isn't a normal person. I have met George. He won't marry any woma

All of a sudden, Jenny's video of killing William Watson got viral all over the country. Everyone in the town started talking about that video. Jenny who wasn't even aware of this woke up at 8:00 am. Just after waking up, she looked around her husband, who wasn't in the room. She sighed! Just as she was about to wake up, her phone rang.Ring Ring Ring Ring.Reluctantly, she walked toward her phone and saw the name of the caller. It was Adriana. She picked up and said, "Hey!"Adriana's sound wasn't looking good. She said, "Have you read the newspaper?"Jenny replied, "No! What's wrong?"Hearing the lazy voice of Jenny, Adriana gritted her teeth and said, "It's already 8:00 am and you just woke up?"Jenny took a deep breath and said, "Yeah! What's wrong?"Adriana said, "Go and check!"Jenny looked around the newspaper and saw that newspaper was lying near the couch. She frowned. George had never thrown a newspaper like this. He always used to fold it and keep it on the table. She picke

The boss paused. He stopped there and looked at Jenny, who was not far from him, but he couldn't grab her. Jenny was also looking at him with the same intensity.The boss said, "Jenny... I had married four years ago. We even had a child. But now, I have nothing left in my life. We were having a great time, but suddenly I don't remember why we started quarreling for some reason and I mistakenly slapped her."Jenny clenched her fist. "How could someone slap a woman?" But she didn't dare to say him. She just acted like she was very keen to listen to him.The boss continued, "My father also used to beat my mother. But my mother never retaliates. So, why my wife was retaliating. I wasn't wrong at all. I just slapped her. I thought that she was angry with me. But to my surprise, she filed divorce against me."Jenny was happy to hear that. But she didn't show any type of expression. The boss continued, "She not only filed a complaint against me, but she also won the case, took my kids and m

"Our Boss's Room!""Your boss's room?" Justin's eyes widened.That man nodded. "Yes sir, one day, I visited his room for some work, I saw some pictures of women including our senior mam and the woman, oh I don't know her name, the woman who died first."Justin nodded, "Ok, then?"That man said, "Sir, I saw the 'tick mark' from a red pen in her photo. That indicated that his plan for her was over. And yes, she was dead. The next photo, I saw was of our senior mam, who wassaved somehow. But, she was also dead.I even saw his girlfriend's photo and also, Jenny's photo. So, I wanted to alarm her every time. But,whenever I used to come near her, that boss used to come up suddenly from nowhere and tried to interfere. Then, I talked to his girlfriend in the car and she told me that he had never invited her to his house. I confirm that in his house, there must be proof of killing."Justin was speechless. How could a person ki

Jenny surfed the internet to find out the biggest hacker in her locality. She just wanted to know the person who was blackmailing her. Suddenly, her eyes sparkled.Her dad!How could she forget her dad? But, should she ask him? Jenny bit her lips."Would he help me?" Thinking about this, she decided to meet her dad. She ordered a cab and left to meet her dad.****In a random restaurant.Jenny and Jerry Antao were sitting in front of each other. Jerry was pretty sure that she had called him for some reason or else she would have never.He took a piece of bread in his mouth, chewed it, and said, "Now tell me, why you called me?"Jenny was biting her lips. She said, "I am being blackmailed."Jerry narrowed his eyes. "Since when?"Jenny replied, "A few days ago."Jerry clenched his fist. "Don't worry, whoever filmed my daughter while changing the clothes would be finished till midnight."Jenny replied, "No,

The morning sunlight cut through the estate’s tall windows, glinting off the crystal vase on William’s desk. Lily stirred awake in the guest bedroom, the one William insisted she use instead of returning to her own apartment after the chaos of the press storm. A dull ache sat in her chest from the previous day—whispers in the office, eyes full of judgment, the tremor in her voice when she’d admitted to William she felt like a burden.She sat up, brushing hair from her face. The digital clock blinked 6:12 a.m. Outside, the distant hum of city traffic was already building. A soft knock came at the door, not urgent, just polite.“Lily?” William’s voice.“Yes?” She quickly adjusted her robe.The door opened a fraction, his tall frame appearing in the morning light. His usually immovable expression softened when he saw her still pale from exhaustion. “Breakfast in twenty. I’ll wait downstairs.”She nodded, her lips curving faintly. “Thank you… William.”When he left, she lingered a moment,

The morning after weeks of speculation, William Thomas called for a press briefing in the atrium of Thomas Global. Cameras flashed like lightning, reporters packed shoulder to shoulder as William stepped up to the podium. His tailored suit didn’t hide the weight in his shoulders, nor the faint shadow under his eyes. Lily watched from the side, her hands clasped tight, knowing what he was about to do.“Ladies and gentlemen,” William began, voice steady but edged with emotion, “I have called you here to clarify certain rumors. It is true—I have ended my engagement with Miss Natasha Mikhail. That decision was mine, not hers. I will not stand for falsehoods being spread in the media or in my own company. Furthermore…” He paused, glancing toward Lily, and in that moment the world seemed to slow. “I am proud to announce that I will be marrying Miss Lily Stephens.”The crowd erupted into murmurs, flashes exploding in the air. Questions were shouted, but William lifted a hand. “This is not op

The black SUV sped down the coastal highway, headlights slicing through the thickening fog. Inside, tension pulsed like a war drum. William, Lily, and Sofia sat in silence, each consumed by thoughts of what lay ahead.The location ping had led them to a remote estate on the outskirts of the city—once owned by Leonard Mikhail, Natasha’s father. A man once seen as a philanthropic giant, admired by the media and public alike, Leonard had secretly built a brutal empire rooted in illegal trafficking and organ harvesting."This was where she grew up," William muttered as the iron gates came into view. "Of course she chose this place."The gates creaked open on their own.“She wants us to find her,” Sofia said, checking her sidearm. “But we’re not walking into this blind.”The estate was massive and eerily silent. Golden lights shimmered through the tall windows of the central mansion, illuminating the grand staircase that led to the main doors.Inside, everything was perfectly arranged—fres

The sun had set, but the war hadn’t.William’s penthouse was transformed into a temporary operations room. Maps were spread across the table, digital trackers blinked on tablets, and Sofia worked tirelessly to triangulate the last signal pinged from the disposable SIM.Lily sat near the window, watching the skyline in silence. Her heart pounded as she held the photo of herself—the one they found in the abandoned house. To be watched, to be hunted... it was a fear she hadn’t known before. But now, she refused to run.Sofia stood up suddenly. “I got it,” she said, eyes sharp. “The signal came from a private yacht registered under a shell company. It's docked in the east harbor. If we go now, we might catch him before he disappears.”William didn’t wait for more. “We’re going.”The harbor was quiet, waves gently lapping against the docked boats. The moonlight cast long shadows as the three of them approached the vessel.William signaled to the two private security men flanking him. “No m

The morning sunlight spilled into the penthouse, golden and soft, like a fresh beginning.Lily stirred beneath the crisp white sheets, her head still heavy from the night before. Her body ached slightly, not from exhaustion, but from something deeper—the emotional unraveling that had taken place between them. For the first time in years, she felt... held. Not just by William’s arms, but by the truth.William was already awake, standing by the window shirtless, coffee in hand. His eyes were fixed on the city below, but his mind was clearly elsewhere. When Lily sat up and wrapped the blanket around herself, he turned slightly and smirked. "Morning, Miss Secretary."She threw a pillow at him. "Don’t start.""You started," he said, grinning. "You broke into my heart and never returned the key."Lily shook her head, laughing despite herself. "You’re the corniest billionaire I know.""Yet here you are, stealing my bed and coffee."They spent a few more minutes in quiet comfort, enjoying som

FLASHBACKThat night, William had driven like mad toward the party after Lily called. But when he arrived, the place was in chaos. Girls were panicking. Drinks were spilled, people were leaving. He called Lily's name over and over. But she was gone.He found out that one of the girls' fathers had shown up and taken the rest of them home. But before William could leave, he heard a faint scream."Help!"He ran toward the sound.Two men were forcing Natasha into a car. Her dress was torn, her hair a mess, and she was barely conscious. Without a second thought, William fought them off. His knuckles bled. One man hit him across the jaw. But he didn’t stop until Natasha was safe.Breathing heavily, he asked her where Lily was. She mumbled something, half-conscious: "She... she left... with a friend... she’s safe..."Relieved, he wrapped his shirt around Natasha’s shoulders, shielding her from the cold and from the shame. He took her to his place. She collapsed onto his bed before he could s
