2026-03-25 22:30:38Although I had a knot in my stomach and throat that made it hard to think straight, I knew I had to move. The Russian mobster had kidnapped me for money; but those who sent me wanted something deeper, something personal. That thought weighed heavy.
I approached Sebastian, trying to hide the storm raging inside me. His calm gaze steadied me, like an anchor in the chaos. I forced a small smile before pointing to the boxes I had chosen.

Silence filled the room. I blinked; deep down, I knew Olivia’s intention was to get rid of the woman who had betrayed our mother, but hearing her say it aloud was something else entirely."What?" Olivia crossed her arms tightly over her chest."Nothing. It’s just... knowing it is one thing, but hearing you say it out loud..."John watched her closely, as if recognizing my father or mother in her. We spent the rest of the evening talking in the living room, sharing stories about our parents and reminiscing about moments Olivia had missed out on because she hadn't grown up with me.Suddenly, it felt as though everything was becoming a little more bearable than it had been lately—though that feeling kept coming and going.The days began to drift by like a dream; time moved forward as if it owed no apologies or explanations to anyone. During the week, we focused on finalizing the company’s details and maintaining an obsessively organized system, bracing ourselves for the worst-case scenar

I stared at him. For some reason, that answer bothered me more than anything else he had said."You don't know?" I said, with a slight huff at the end.John shook his head."I know enough to understand what James is looking for. But not enough to tell you exactly where it is."For a moment, no one spoke. I looked down at the table, sorting through my thoughts. All this time, the situation had seemed impossible. The fake will. Olivia. James. The pressure to get married. My father's secrets.And now, somehow, the feeling was even worse.Because there was no magic document Uncle John could pull from his pocket and lay on the table.There was no magic solution that could appear before me and simply make everything easier—or justify the decisions I’d made over the last few weeks.Sebastian seemed to reach the same conclusion."So we’re looking for something that might not even exist anymore," he said, looking at me.John nodded."Basically.""It’s a terrible plan," Sebastian insisted."It’

I swallowed hard. The warmth of Uncle John’s hand contrasted sharply with the cold knot tightening in my chest.For a moment, I couldn't speak.He looked so much like my father when he was serious—it hurt. It wasn't just the shape of his face or the color of his eyes. It was the way he looked at me... As if he were carrying the weight of an entire family on his shoulders and refused to let it crush anyone else."You don't have to do that," I finally whispered.His expression softened."Maybe not..." he paused for a moment. "But I’m offering it to you anyway."A lump formed in my throat. Although only a month had passed since my father’s death, everything felt completely different now. All those moments when I’d thought I was utterly alone had shifted in an instant, transformed by my uncle’s gaze—even though he wasn't the person I had wanted him to be.I didn't know whether to feel comforted or betrayed by all the secrets my father had kept from me. Perhaps both. Sebastian must have no

Sebastian and I remained silent as Uncle John explained all the details of what had happened.Upon graduating from university, my father and Uncle John were given management positions at different subsidiaries of James Clark's father's company.My Uncle John leaned forward, his green eyes gleaming with an intensity that made me shudder.“Your grandfather Clark was never what he seemed,” he said in a deep voice. “And neither was James. What you know is barely the tip of the iceberg—if even that.”Sebastian clenched his fists on the table, unable to hide his emotions. I felt the air in the room grow heavy, as if every word my uncle spoke carried a weight impossible to ignore.“What do you mean?” I asked, though my voice came out quieter than I’d intended.John looked straight at me, with that blend of tenderness and toughness only family could possess. “I mean that your father and I didn’t just inherit a business or power… we inherited enemies. And those enemies never went away.”The si

Kathe leaned toward me, her face pale. "Who is it?" she whispered.I didn't answer. My throat was tight and my mind was racing. Whoever it was had broken the veil of silence I had tried so hard to maintain."D...dad...?" I whispered.There was silence in the office. Kathe was shocked to hear me, while my heart pounded so hard I could hear it in my ears. From the other end of the line, I heard a soft sigh and then my father's voice again."Almost," he said. "Can we meet?"I frowned. It was exactly my dad's voice. Then I had only one theory left in my mind, and I blurted out the word."Uncle... Seb."There was silence again from the other end of the line, but somehow, it was as if I could hear him smiling."Be careful not to fall off the chair, niece."I jumped to my feet, and the chair slid backward, almost tipping over. I turned to look out the window. I glanced across the street and began searching until my eyes recognized him. The same face as the man I had buried three weeks ago, w

Monday arrived earlier than expected, with a mix of emotions in the air. It was a combination of uncertainty, but also of determination, as if we all knew that everything that was coming was now inevitable.The city seemed quieter than usual, although perhaps it was just my own silence projected onto the streets. Even the noise of traffic felt distant, muffled, as if the world were holding its breath.Carlos hadn't tried to contact me, and that made me increasingly nervous. His silence didn't comfort me; it threatened me. The fact that he was so quiet after trying to take advantage of me, after thinking himself so important, after manipulating my vulnerability in such a disgusting way, made me wonder what he was plotting behind closed doors.I tried to distract myself with routine: coffee, emails, small tasks that should have been normal. But every time my phone vibrated, I felt a knot in my stomach, waiting to see his message, or read an unexpected name. But he never appeared. That a

The woman approached and stood between Sebastian and me. I stood there for a second, unsure how to react or what to do. The woman was shorter than me, but she had an imposing presence that made me doubt everything; she had eyes as dark as night and short black hair perfectly tied up."Ma'am, I..."

Sebastian stood up and slung his jacket over his shoulder."Do you have any idea what's going to happen next?""Well..." I said softly, "I'm going to try to get a boyfriend, and if that doesn't work out, I'll have to find another option." I added with a slight laugh."I can't believe it..." Sebasti

I started drafting an email to send him, just a formal email, letting him know I'd like to have a meeting with him. Before hitting send, I considered my options.I'll be 28 in exactly 62 days. When my father passes away, his investment and shares, which represent 30% of the total, would pass to me,

Kathe and I sat there, trying to figure out what we could do, knowing full well that we had to do something. Lucas was an alcoholic, a man who gambled away all his money, and when he won a little, he "reinvested" it in his bets and lost the few cents he won. Most importantly, he was Uncle Clark's g
