Chapter: 011: Hidden FacesA cold silence settled through the hallway.Elena looked from Damian to Vanessa.The change in Damian's expression was impossible to miss.Only moments ago, he had been focused on Elena.Now, all his attention was on Vanessa.And he looked worried.Very worried.Vanessa slowly approached them, her heels clicking against the marble floor."Did I interrupt something?" she asked sweetly."No," Damian replied immediately.His voice was sharp.Vanessa's smile widened."That's a shame. It looked important."Elena frowned.The tension between them was becoming impossible to ignore.Something wasn't right.Vanessa stopped a few feet away.Her gaze shifted to Elena."You seem upset.""I'm fine," Elena answered."Are you?"The question sounded innocent.But Elena felt a hidden meaning behind it.Before she could respond, Damian stepped between them."Vanessa."The warning in his voice was clear.Vanessa raised an eyebrow."What?""You should leave now."For the first time, the smile slipped fro

Chapter: 010: The Truth She OverheardElena barely slept that night.Every time she closed her eyes, she saw Vanessa sitting beside Damian.Laughing with him.Sharing memories with him.Looking completely at home in a place where Elena still felt like a guest.The worst part wasn't what Damian's father had said.It was Damian's silence afterward.He hadn't denied it.Not once.By morning, Elena was emotionally exhausted.She decided to avoid everyone and spend the day alone.Maybe some distance would help clear her thoughts.That afternoon, Elena was walking through one of the quieter hallways when she heard voices coming from a nearby study.Normally, she would have kept walking.But one voice stopped her.Damian.She froze.The door wasn't fully closed.Without meaning to, she heard his conversation."She still doesn't know?" a man asked.It sounded like Damian's father."No."Damian's reply was calm.For a moment, neither spoke.Then his father sighed."You can't hide it forever."Elena frowned.Hide what?Her curiosit

Chapter: 009: The Woman at the GateElena stayed in the library after Damian left.The photograph was still clutched tightly in her hands.His reaction had told her everything.The picture mattered.Their past mattered.And no matter how hard Damian tried to hide it, she knew there was still something between them.But what exactly had happened a year ago?Why had he suddenly disappeared from her life?Why did he act as though he hated her one moment and cared about her the next?The questions refused to leave her mind.With a sigh, she carefully returned the photograph to the book where she found it.There was no point searching for answers tonight.Not when Damian clearly wasn't ready to give them.The next morning, Elena woke earlier than usual.Unable to sleep, she decided to take a walk around the mansion grounds.The air was cool and fresh.For the first time in days, she felt calm.She followed a stone pathway lined with flowers until she reached the front gate.Just as she was about to turn back, a sleek black c

Chapter: 008: Unspoken TruthsRays of light passed through the tall windows of Damian's mansion, illuminating the room where Elena sat on the edge of the bed, quietly holding a cup of tea. She had been living under Damian's roof for a few days now, but the massive house still felt completely strange to her.The tension between them continued in every room.Sometimes Damian was cold and distant. Other times, she caught him looking at her when he thought she wasn't paying attention.It was confusing.And exhausting.A soft knock interrupted her thoughts."Come in."The door opened, revealing Mrs. Clara, the housekeeper."Mr. Damian asked me to tell you that breakfast is ready."Elena nodded politely."Thank you."A few minutes later, she went downstairs.The dining room was unusually quiet.Damian sat at the far end of the table, dressed in a black suit, reading through several documents.He looked as intimidating as ever.Elena took her seat without saying a word.For several minutes, only the sounds of cutlery fil

Chapter: 007: The Woman He Couldn't ForgetElena returned to Damian's mansion later that evening.Her head was full of questions.The pregnancy.The test Adrian found.The phone call from the Vale family.Everything was becoming complicated.As soon as she entered her room, she locked the door and sat on the bed.For years, she had dreamed of having a family with Adrian.She had imagined telling him she was pregnant.She had imagined his happiness.His excitement.Now she wasn't even sure he deserved to know.A soft knock sounded on the door."Come in."Damian stepped inside.He looked like he had just returned from work.His tie was loosened, and his sleeves were rolled up.For a moment, neither of them spoke.Then Damian placed a small paper bag on the table."What's that?" Elena asked."Medicine."She frowned."I'm not sick.""The doctor said you've barely been eating."Elena stared at the bag.Nobody had paid attention to things like that in a very long time.Not even Adrian.Especially not Adrian."Thank you," she said qu

Chapter: 006: The Test He FoundElena's grip tightened around the phone."What pregnancy test?"Across the room, Damian looked up from where he was standing.On the other end of the call, Adrian was silent for a moment.Then he said, "Don't play games with me.""I have no idea what you're talking about."Adrian let out a frustrated sigh."I found it in the bathroom cabinet."Elena frowned.There had never been a pregnancy test in their bathroom.Never."You're mistaken.""I know what I saw, Elena."Before she could respond, the call ended.Elena slowly lowered the phone.Something felt wrong.Very wrong."What's going on?" Damian asked.She shook her head."I don't know."But she did know one thing. There was a setup.And she was going to find out who was doing that.Meanwhile, at the Sterling Mansion, Adrian sat alone in the living room.The house was quiet.Too quiet.For the first time in years, there was no sound coming from the kitchen.No smell of Elena's cooking.No lights left on for him.Nothing.Vanessa wa
