Chapter: NO IDEA“My love, where have you been?” Daphne asked as Owen walked into the bedroom.Owen simply stared at her for a moment before walking past her and heading toward the walk-in closet.“At the office,” he said calmly.“You look so tired and worn out.”Daphne stepped closer and helped him take off his jacket.“Yeah. Work was very hectic today.”He kept his voice casual.Daphne smiled and gently rubbed his shoulder.“I can imagine. Our baby misses you. Liam was trying to wait up for you, but he fell asleep.”“I’ll apologize to him tomorrow.”Owen walked deeper into the closet, his expression remaining unreadable.Daphne was standing right there, lying to him again.

Chapter: WAY OUT OF THISThe moment Bryan’s words sank in, Adrian’s entire expression changed.

I’m almost there myself. Why? What’s wrong?”“Are you sure they’re still inside the penthouse?”“Yes.”Adrian released a slow breath.“Okay.”Nadia immediately sensed that something was wrong.“Adrian, what’s going on?”“It’s nothing.”“Don’t you dare lie to me.”Her voice hardened.“You sound worried. What happened? What is going on?”Adrian took a deep breath.“Nadia…”“What is going on, Adrian?”“Alexander knows about Aveline.”“What?”“He knows she’s my daughter.”Nadia’s heart dropped.“How?”“We don’t know yet.”Adrian’s grip tightened around the phone.“Bryan was just attacked at his house.

Their laughter immediately died as soon as they looked up at him.Alexander smiled.“Heavens have decided that we are the ones who are going to win this battle,” he said, laughing.Bryan frowned. “What do you mean by that?”“Adrian has a daughter,” Alexander revealed.Bryan stared at him for a moment before shaking his head. “Okay. So, is this about Father’s wish?”“Of course not, little brother.

Chapter: NOTHING TO FORGIVEDaphne walked into the private restaurant room with a satisfied smile on her face. For the first time in days, everything seemed to be falling back into place. Her marriage was intact.Owen had abandoned the divorce.Her family was no longer falling apart. And, most importantly, she had finally found a way to destroy Nadia.Daphne walked toward the small table beside the window and picked up the glass of wine waiting for her. She took a slow sip. Her mind returned to the information she had uncovered during her investigation following Aveline's kidnapping.She had discovered something far more valuable.

I know you told me he is fine, but I still want to see him.”Nadia sighed.“He hasn't been home for days now.”She tried to sound casual, but even she couldn't hide the concern in her voice.Adrian had been discharged from the hospital, but he had barely returned to his penthouse. Between dealing with the aftermath of the accident, the Graham family's involvement, and everything happening within Ravencrest Empire, he had been constantly occupied. And Nadia couldn't deny that she had noticed his absence too.Aveline, however, was taking it much harder. She had become incredibly attached to Adrian in such a short amount of time.“I miss him,” Aveline complained.Jade, who was sitting beside Nadia, smiled.“You saw him just a few days ago.”“That was before he got hurt.”Aveline's little face became serious.“Now I need to check if he is really okay.”Nadia s
