The line went quiet.

Roman waited, phone pressed against his ear.

For a few seconds, all he could hear was the faint sound of movement on the other end. Then Theon’s voice came again. Different this time.

“What did you say?”

“You heard me.”

Another pause followed.

Then: “Turn the vehicle around.”

The call ended.

Roman stared at the disconnected line for a moment before exhaling slowly.

At least that mountain finally moved.

Theon leaned back against the seat, his pulse beating faster than norm

  • BOUND TO My EX'S UNCLE    Chapter 155: When We Let Go…

    Theon stayed longer than he intended.After Lena finally stopped crying, she sat curled into herself on the couch, her face pale and exhausted, eyes swollen from crying too much. She looked fragile in a way he had never seen before.It unsettled him.The Lena he knew had always been stubborn. Even when things got hard regarding her father, she tried to stand through it all.But tonight…Tonight she looked like someone barely holding herself together.Theon stood in the kitchen for a while, warming water and making tea he knew she probably would not drink.“You should eat something,” he said quietly as he returned.Lena only shook her head. “I’m not hungry.”He frowned. “You haven’t been eating properly.”A faint smile tugged at her lips. “Now you sound like an old man.”Theon stared at her for a second before letting out a breath that almost sounded like a laugh.“Maybe heartbreak ages people.”The smile on Lena’s lips disappeared.Silence fell again.Theon hated this silence.He hate

    The car remained quiet for a long while.Only the soft hum of the engine and the faint sound of tires brushing against the road filled the silence.Theon stole a glance at Lena before returning his eyes to the road.She sat still in the passenger seat, her fingers curled tightly against her thighs, her gaze fixed outside the window.Her expression was calm. The kind of calm that looked fragile. Like someone holding themselves together by a thread.Theon’s grip tightened around the steering wheel. “Are you okay?”Lena didn’t respond.Theon swallowed. “When I was driving over…” he began carefully, “I saw you and Rhys arguing. It looked serious.”Lena’s jaw clenched. Her fingers dug deeper into her palms.For almost a minute, she said nothing. “I don’t want to talk about it.” her voice came out tired.Theon nodded after a moment. “Okay.”Silence stretched between them again. Streetlights flickered past, casting brief shadows across Lena’s face.Theon exhaled slowly. “Lena…”His voice t

    The doctor adjusted Lena’s chart before looking up at her.“From what I’m seeing, your pregnancy is unstable.”Lena’s fingers tightened around the blanket.The doctor continued, her expression growing serious.“Have you noticed any spotting or light bleeding recently?”Lena paused before nodding slowly. “Yes…”The doctor sighed.“That explains it. You’re also dealing with hormonal imbalance, exhaustion, stress, and malnutrition.” Her gaze lingered on Lena’s thin frame. “You need to avoid emotional stress as much as possible.”Lena lowered her eyes.“Although you’ve already passed your first trimester,” the doctor continued carefully, “your body is weak. If this keeps up, there’s a chance you could lose the baby.”The room fell silent.Lena’s throat tightened. Her hand moved unconsciously to her stomach.‘Lose the baby?’The words echoed in her mind.“How… how far along am I?” she asked in a quiet tone.The doctor blinked. “You don’t know?”Lena shook her head.“I only just found out.”

    Lena felt the world stop.Her fingers trembled so hard the pregnancy test almost slipped from her grasp.“What…?”The whisper came out faint. Her knees went weak.The test sticks fell from her hand, hitting the sink with a soft clatter.It was still showing the same thing. Two red lines.Lena stared with a blank expression. “No…”Her lips parted. “No way.”She turned toward the mirror so fast she almost stumbled. Her reflection stared back at her.She was still the same. Pale and skinny. With sunken cheeks. Her ribs were still visible. And also with a completely flat stomach.Her gaze dropped, then rose again. “How is that even possible…?”She touched her stomach. It was flat with no bump. There was no proof of pregnancy except those two red lines.Lena swallowed hard. “No. No, maybe it’s wrong.”Her breathing turned uneven. She grabbed the remaining pregnancy test kits with shaking hands.“There’s no way…”She peed into the plastic cup again. Her hands still trembling. She dipped the

  • BOUND TO My EX'S UNCLE    Chapter 151: Unspoken Truth.

    For the next few days, Lena buried herself in the hospital.At first, she told herself it was because of her father.But deep down, she knew she was also avoiding home. Avoiding Rhys.Ever since that night, something between them had shattered.Rhys never brought up the photographs again. Never asked another question. Never raised his voice.That somehow hurt even more.He barely spoke to her now.Sometimes she would hear the front door open late at night, only to realize he had already returned from work.Other times, she would catch sight of him in the kitchen or living room.But the moment their eyes met, he would turn away. As if she wasn’t there. As if she had become invisible.The distance between them settled over the penthouse like something heavy.Cold and painful. It affected Lena more than she wanted to admit.Even her father noticed. “Are you and Rhys fighting?”William frowned one afternoon.Lena paused midway through peeling an orange.“Huh?”“That brat hasn’t visited m

    ‘What if I make you fall in love with me within those six months?’Theon's voice echoed in Lena's head as she walked out of the restaurant.Her heart felt torn.The cold evening breeze brushed against her face, but it did nothing to cool the heat building behind her eyes.‘Why did it hurt so much?’Lena wiped at her tears with trembling fingers as she walked down the roadside.“Why do I feel like this…” she whispered shakily.Another tear rolled down before she could stop it.“I clearly don’t like him.”Her voice sounded weak, almost unconvinced. “He’s my husband’s cousin.”The words only made her chest ache harder.Before she knew it, her legs gave out.Lena crouched by the roadside, burying her face in her hands as tears poured out uncontrollably.‘What was wrong with me?’She had never been this emotional before, or this confused.Everything felt messy.Her thoughts tangled together until she couldn’t tell where one emotion ended and another began.After what felt like forever, Len

    Roman returned to find Evelyn pacing the suite like a caged tiger. She whirled around the moment she heard the door open, her eyes blazing with frustration and determination."We need to talk about this—right now!" she demanded."Not here," Roman said firmly, his tone leaving no room for argument.
