A Blissful Night with My Step-Father Chapter 89: The Final Reckoning
The boardroom was silent except for the shuffle of papers and the faint hum of the air conditioning. Ginny sat stiffly, her hands clasped together so tightly that her knuckles turned pale.Every breath she took felt heavy, thick with fear and hope.Annabella sat beside her, calm on the outside, but Ginny could feel the tremor in her cousin’s hand where their fingers brushed.Margaret was across from them, her face sharp with determination, and Joshua, though bruised and pale, sat straight-backed as if refusing to show weakness before Lucy.The doors opened.Lucy walked in like she owned the air they all breathed. Her heels clicked against the polished floor, her dress immaculate, her smile calm, controlled, a queen entering her throne room.She didn’t spare Ginny a glance as she took her seat at the head of the table.The board members murmured faintly, unsure, restless.“Ladies and gentlemen,” Lucy began, her voice dripping with authority. “I called this emergency meeting because the

The night city lights spilled into the car windows as Ginny sat beside Annabella, her palms damp against the leather seat. Every bump on the road felt like it echoed in her chest.The investigator drove in silence, his jaw tight, eyes locked on the road as though he too carried a burden heavier than the air around them.“Are we really ready for this?” Ginny whispered, her voice fragile but steady enough for Annabella to hear.Annabella turned her face, her eyes burning with determination. “We don’t have a choice. Lucy has painted you as a thief. If we don’t cut Victor down, the board will never listen to us.”Ginny nodded, though her stomach twisted. She had imagined the face of the man who helped Lucy weave her lies.Now, she was on her way to meet him, to wrestle her fate back from his hands.The car slowed before a dimly lit diner tucked away at the end of an almost deserted street. The signboard flickered, half-broken, as if the place itself was tired of hiding secrets.The invest
A Blissful Night with My Step-Father Chapter 87: Lucy’s Last Card
The morning carried no peace. By the time Ginny stepped out of her room, whispers were already spilling through the hallways.Faces turned toward her, some with pity, others with suspicion. She felt the judgment like stones pressing against her chest.At the dining hall, Annabella hurried in, her face pale, clutching a folded newspaper. She dropped it on the table before Ginny. “She’s done it,” she said, her voice shaking. “Lucy has moved first.”Ginny’s eyes fell on the bold headline. Her name screamed across the page—accused of siphoning funds, manipulating accounts, betraying her own family’s trust. A wave of heat rushed through her body.She gripped the edge of the table, her knuckles whitening. “This is false,” she whispered, though the heaviness in her throat made her voice crack.“She’s framing you,” Annabella said firmly. “And she’s doing it publicly.”Margaret entered slowly, her face stern, her hands holding yet another folder. “It’s worse than that. She’s called for an emer
A Blissful Night with My Step-Father Chapter 86: Shattered Loyalties
The night air felt heavier than before, pressing against Ginny’s chest as she and Annabella stumbled out of the hidden passage with the ledger clutched tightly in Annabella’s trembling hands.Their breathing came in broken gasps, not just from running but from the weight of what they had left behind.Joshua.Ginny’s heart pounded at the thought. She could still hear his voice in her head, telling her to go, telling her to finish the fight, even as he stayed back to face Lucy’s men.The guilt was like fire in her veins. She had promised him she would end it, but the promise did not make the emptiness in her chest any lighter.Annabella slowed, pressing her back to the wall once they reached the east corridor of the mansion.Her face was pale and streaked with sweat, but her grip on the ledger was fierce. “Ginny,” she whispered, almost choking on the words, “we left him… we actually left Joshua down there.”Ginny’s throat tightened. She looked at her cousin, tears glistening in her eyes
A Blissful Night with My Step-Father Chapter 85: A Desperate Gamble
The room was suffocating, filled with the sharp tang of fear and the heavy sound of panting breaths. Ginny’s heart pounded as Lucy’s men spread out, eyes sharp and muscles tensed.Annabella leaned against the cool stone wall, holding the book of accounts as if it was her ticket to life. Joshua, on the other side, has his jaw clenched, fists too tightly bunched at his sides."You actually thought that you could outsmart me?" Lucy's voice sliced through. There was an undercurrent in her voice: humor laced with rage. She did another step and, by that light, her eyes sparkled menace. "You have underestimated me once too often."Standing her ground and her eyes fixed on Lucy, Ginny said, "We aren't afraid of you anymore, Lucy. The truth's out, and it is only a matter of time before the board sees it.Lucy's lips curled into a smile, but it was anything but friendly. "The boa"rd? Oh, darling, you don't think I'm worried about the board, do you?"She turned to one of her men, nodding sharply
A Blissful Night with My Step-Father Chapter 84: The Hidden Vault
The early morning air was sharp and cool as Ginny stood on the balcony of her room, staring out at the sprawling estate below.It was the calm before the storm, that silence that always heralds the expectation of an up-and-coming battle.Two days had gone by since they had met with the investigator, and their plan had begun its motion. Her testimony to the embezzlement of Lucy into papers, with the damning link to Victor Kane, had all been set in place.She had learned to make the most of moments like this; when the quiet seemed to cradle her in its fragile, uncertain peace. She knew it wouldn't last. The board meeting loomed ahead, and with it, Lucy's inevitable counterattack."Morning." Annabella's voice snapped her from her thoughts. She stepped onto the balcony, joining Ginny with a determined expression."Morning," Ginny said, offering her a small smile. "Are you ready?"Annabella glanced over at her, the light in her eyes unwavering. "As I'll ever be. We've come this far, and no
