The projection flickered once more before fading into darkness.

For a brief moment, the room felt still again.

Too still.

I straightened slightly, keeping my expression composed as I looked back at the camera.

“So what now?” I asked.

A pause.

“I won,” I added calmly.

My tone remained even, almost indifferent.

“Are you going to let the Beckers go?”

I tilted my head slightly, as if considering it.

“Or better yet,” I continued, “keep them restrained until I get there. I would prefer to deal with t

  • A woman worth billions, dated the wrong brother   A victim

    Amber POVSilence followed.Not the kind that invited comfort.The kind that forced truth to settle.Jason stood.The movement was abrupt, sharp enough to cut through everything that had just been said.“You said that was when I turned four,” he said, his voice steady but edged with something deeper. “But I was with them when I turned five.”A pause.“How is it that I’m missing a year?”No one spoke immediately.Mr. Sun sighed.Not in annoyance.In something heavier.“The doctors believed it was trauma,” he said.Jason did not react.But I saw it.The stillness in him tightening further.“You have to understand,” Mr. Sun continued, his voice softer now, almost careful.“You were a mischievous little boy.”The words felt fragile.“You laughed. You ran around. You charmed everyone around you.”A faint, almost broken smile touched his expression.“You were like Alice and Alex combined.”That image did not fit the man standing in front of him now.“You changed… drastically after that.”Th

  • A woman worth billions, dated the wrong brother   The truth

    Mr. Sun did not stop. He carried the story forward with the same measured control, but now there was something darker beneath it—something closer to anger. “We did not get more information at the time,” he said. “An ambulance arrived and took her to the hospital. We gave our statements to the police.” Jason’s eyes had not left him. “When we arrived at the hospital and asked for Rebeca,” Mr. Sun continued, “one of the nurses informed us that her husband had checked her out.” A pause. “Against medical advice.” Of course he had. “Two weeks later,” Mr. Sun said, his voice tightening almost imperceptibly, “we were informed by the police that she had died on site.” The room went still. “But she was alive when they took her.” The contradiction sat there. Heavy. Deliberate. “The funeral was closed casket,” he added. Jason’s jaw clenched. “But something was wrong.” Mr. Sun’s gaze softened just slightly—not weakness, but memory. “Your grandmother,” he said, “has always had… ex

  • A woman worth billions, dated the wrong brother   Refused

    Mr. Sun did not argue.He simply nodded.And for the first time, I could clearly see it—Where Jason got it from.That same unshakable presence.That same refusal to bend once a decision had been made.That same quiet authority that did not need to be raised to be felt.Mr. Sun straightened slightly, his gaze moving across the room, taking in every person present.“If I am going to tell this story,” he said evenly, “I will do so uninterrupted.”A pause.“Are we clear?”No one challenged him.Then his eyes sharpened further.“And any mention of my wife will not be logged anywhere.”That drew a reaction.Subtle—but there.He turned his attention directly to Mr. Stait and Emory.“I do not consent for this to be recorded.”The air shifted again.Not tension this time—Control.Emory glanced at John.John hesitated for half a second, then reached forward and disabled the recording system on his desk.The faint hum of surveillance equipment cut off.“Understood,” John said.Emory gave a sho

  • A woman worth billions, dated the wrong brother   Owed

    Amber POVBy the time Mr. Sun arrived at the base, Jason was unraveling in a way I had never seen before.Not loudly. Not visibly to anyone who did not know him.But I did.He could not stay still.He paced the length of Mr. Stait’s office over and over again, measured steps that were anything but calm. His hands flexed at his sides, then crossed, then dropped again. Every movement was controlled—and completely restless at the same time.The tension in the room had shifted entirely.Emory had stopped speaking.Mr. Stait watched in silence.Even the screens had gone ignored.Jason kept walking.Back and forth.Again.And again.I leaned against the desk, watching him, arms crossed, trying—failing—to remain patient.“Jason…” I warned once.He didn’t even hear me.Another turn.Another pass.Another silent storm contained in too small a space.I exhaled sharply.I was one second away from physically tackling him to the ground just to make him stop moving.And then—The door opened.Every

  • A woman worth billions, dated the wrong brother   for your own protection

    Amber POV“Tell me where you are,” Mr. Sun said at last, his voice steady but stripped of its earlier ease. “And I will meet you there, son. But I cannot do this on the phone.”Jason did not hesitate.“I’m at the military base,” he replied, the dryness in his tone cutting through the room.There was a brief pause on the other end.Then—“I’ll see you there, son. I’m leaving right now.”Another pause, softer this time, heavier.“And Jason… just know this.”The entire room seemed to still around us.“Everything that was hidden from you… was done for your own protection.”The line went dead.Silence followed.Not the quiet of uncertainty.The quiet of something approaching.Jason did not move immediately. The phone remained in his hand, the screen dimming slowly as if even it understood the weight of what had just been set in motion.I stepped closer again, my hand finding his arm.He exhaled slowly.Not relief.Preparation.Across the room, Emory exchanged a glance with Mr. Stait. Neit

    Amber POVEmory rose from his chair with quiet certainty, the kind that did not ask for permission.“Jason,” he said, his voice even but edged with purpose, “I think it is time to call your grandparents, don’t you?”The words settled over the room like a final piece placed on a board none of us had realized we were playing.Jason did not answer immediately.He went pale. Not dramatically, not in a way that would draw attention from anyone who did not know him—but I did. I saw the way the color drained from his face, the way his shoulders stilled, the way his eyes closed as if shutting out the present might give him space to understand the past.Even with his eyes shut, I could see the movement beneath them. Quick. Restless. Searching. He was thinking—no, reliving—pulling apart memories he had once accepted and forcing them into a new shape. One that fit what we now knew.I reached for his hand.It was cold. Slightly damp.Jason’s fingers tightened around mine, firm and deliberate. Not

    By the time Jason returned with the doctor, Madam Sun and I had already reached an understanding. Not friendship. Not trust. A truce. The terms were clear. The online rumors surrounding me would be handled by the Sun family’s media division immediately. The slander from the White Group would n

    Adrian left the office, but not before stopping at the door. “You will regret ever standing in my way, Amber.” His voice was low. Controlled. Promising. Then he walked out. I remained standing in front of Grandfather’s desk, the Zoom meeting still active behind me. The screen displayed a gri

    My feet moved before my mind could catch up. In two strides, I reached them. My hand shot out, gripping the woman’s forearm mid-motion. “Just what do you think you’re doing?” She stiffened. Slowly, she turned her head and gave me a once-over—from my heels to my face—clearly unimpressed.

    I didn’t cry. I didn’t shake. I didn’t look back, or mourned the life and the years i will never get back, lost forever. I just went home, time to pack and say goodbye to my old life. The penthouse doors opened with biometric recognition the moment I stepped inside. Floor-to-ceiling glass. Marb
