Jason and I entered the car in silence.

No reporters.

No cameras.

Just the hum of the engine and the weight of what had just happened.

The city lights blurred past the window as we headed toward the Asher estate.

Victoria’s video.

Mario’s statement.

The pictures.

The narrative twisting.

I was already reconstructing timelines in my head.

Timestamps.

Guest lists.

Event records.

Security footage.

There had to be a clean way to dismantle it.

But beside me—

Jason was too quiet.

  • A woman worth billions, dated the wrong brother   Family

    That night— No one slept easily. Not after everything we had uncovered. Not after everything we now knew. “They stay here,” Grandfather said firmly. No debate. No hesitation. “At the Asher estate.” Mr. Stuart nodded immediately. “It’s the safest place.” Jason agreed. “They won’t expect it.” Mrs. Sun added quietly— “And it avoids attention.” Because that was the real danger now. Not just what we knew— But what others might realize we knew. I looked toward the girls. Rose had fallen asleep curled into the cushions. Iris sat beside her. Awake. Watching. Still guarding. Even now. “They stay,” I confirmed. And just like that— They were part of us. The next morning came too fast. The Heir trial. The air in the estate felt different. Charged. Focused. I stood in front of the mirror. Dressed. Ready. Not nervous. Not uncertain. Ready to take over the world. Jason stood behind me. Adjusting the cuff of his sleeve. “You’re going to win,” he said simply. I

    “They will answer for this.” The words didn’t echo. They settled. Heavy. Final. Mr. Stuart didn’t sit. Didn’t hesitate. He turned to us. To all of us. “What have you done so far?” His voice was steady now. Focused. “And how can I help?” This wasn’t grief anymore. This was war. Grandfather gestured toward the table. “Sit.” Mr. Stuart hesitated only a second— Then obeyed. I glanced at Jason. He gave me a small nod. So I spoke. “We didn’t find Iris first.” His eyes snapped to me. “We found Rose.” I explained everything. “Adrian told me,” I continued. “He suspected something was wrong.” Jason shifted slightly beside me. Listening. Measuring. “He said his half-sister, the one he was just being told existed, was being held by the Becker family,they told her that whatever happened to her was up to him, they ordered him to ask for an Heir trial, they intended for him to win” I added. Mr. Stuart’s expression darkened. “But he didn’t know the full extent” I said

  • A woman worth billions, dated the wrong brother   Luis Stuart

    Amber POV The garden felt different that afternoon. Not heavy. Not tense. But… watchful. We sat together. Grandfather. Mr. and Mrs. Sun. Jason. And me. The table between us untouched. Conversations low. Measured. Careful. In front of us— The children. Alice laughed as she ran across the grass. Alex followed, pretending not to enjoy it as much as he clearly did. And Rose— She was sitting on the ground. Watching. Smiling. Small. Fragile. But real. A few steps away— Iris. She wasn’t playing. Not yet. She stood slightly apart. Watching everything. Watching Rose. Always Rose. Protective. Even now. Jason’s hand rested lightly over mine. Steady. Grounding. “We need to decide how to tell him,” Grandfather said quietly. Mr. Sun nodded. “Carefully.” Mrs. Sun’s gaze softened as she looked at Iris. “He lost everything.” “Sixteen years,” Grandfather added. “Sixteen years believing they were gone.” Silence followed. Because there was no easy way to undo

    Amber POV Jason moved first. Pulling me into him. Hard. Tight. Like if he didn’t— I might disappear. The hug was not gentle. It was desperate. Grounding. Possessive. I didn’t hesitate. I wrapped my arms around him just as fiercely. Holding on. Matching him. For a moment— There was nothing else. No families. No war. No past. Just us. Then Jason exhaled slowly against my hair. And I felt it— That shift again. From emotion— To strategy. “The first step…” he murmured. I pulled back slightly, just enough to look at him. “…is for you to win the Heir position.” I blinked. “That was already the plan.” His gaze sharpened. “Yes.” A pause. “But now it’s critical.” “They’re not just attacking us,” he continued. “They’re positioning themselves.” His jaw tightened. “They want control.” “The Asher family,” I finished quietly. He nodded. “Once you’re officially Heir,” he said, “They lose that path.” I held his gaze. Steady. Certain. “I’m not losing,” I sa

    The room shifted again.From urgency—To assessment.To truth.Both girls were moved carefully.Side by side.The doctors worked around them with quiet efficiency.No sudden movements.No loud voices.Just focus.Just care.“Full physical exams,” one of them said.“We need everything.”Bloodwork.Scans.Vitals.Damage reports.Not guesses.Facts.I stood back this time.Close enough to see.Far enough not to overwhelm them.Jason stayed near Rose.Unmoving.Watching.The results came faster than I expected.And they hit harder than anything we had seen so far.“Severe malnutrition.”“Extended deprivation.”“Vitamin deficiencies at critical levels.”Each word—A confirmation.Not suspicion.Not possibility.Fact.Then—Rose.“Three fractured ribs.”My breath caught.“recent.”The doctor’s tone was controlled.“Poorly healed, we have done what we could, now we wait.”My stomach twisted.“And…”A pause.Longer this time.“Multiple fractures in upper and lower limbs.”The screen shifted.

  • A woman worth billions, dated the wrong brother   Iris

    Amber POV The room had settled. Not calm— But quieter. More contained. Rose rested on the bed, her small hand still loosely wrapped around mine, like letting go might make everything disappear again. I stayed there a moment longer. Just enough to make sure she felt it. That she wasn’t alone. Then I turned. The older girl was still watching. From the edge of the second bed. Still tense. Still unsure. But no longer frozen. I walked toward her slowly. Careful not to startle her. “Hey…” She looked up at me immediately this time. Still cautious. But present. I sat down beside her. Not too close. Giving her space. “You said you didn’t have a name.” She nodded faintly. I tilted my head slightly. “So…” A small pause. “If you could choose one…” I smiled gently. “What would you like to be called?” She blinked. Like the question itself was unfamiliar. Like no one had ever asked her that before. “…I don’t know,” she whispered. Her fingers twisted together in he

    I stepped into the room but remained near the door. Jason removed his jacket, placing it carefully over the back of a chair. His movements were precise, as if control over small things kept the larger chaos at bay. “Jason,” I said quietly. He glanced at me. “Yes?” I hesitated for only a s

    Footsteps approached from the corridor. Measured. Urgent. An older woman entered the living room. Elegant. Impeccable. Authority woven into every line of her posture. Ms. Sun. Her eyes immediately found Alison curled beside me on the couch. I watched the exact moment tension left her shoulder

    High above them, the balcony doors remained slightly open. Madam Sun stood in the shadows, one hand resting lightly against the carved stone railing. She had not meant to watch. And yet— There they were. Jason, bare-chested, having clearly abandoned formality the moment he stepped upstair
