Melisa’s downfall was still a hot topic in the news, and the media did not waste time in uncovering all her dirty secrets. Three other accomplices had been arrested as well. She had appeared before the court the previous day, and she was sentenced to five years in prison. Her family business had been seized by the court and auctioned to repay all the victims of her scams. Liam had taken this chance to buy it at a throwaway price, killing two birds with one stone. He smiled in satisfaction. He had finally gotten Melisa out of the way.

Two days later, Liam and Anna stepped into the old Parker mansion hand in hand. Anna was part of the Parker family, and it was time for some rules to change. It was time to set the records straight with his grandmother. He was tired of living like a puppet, always following his grandma’s orders. That wasn’t the kind of life he wanted to live. He wanted a life of freedom, living his life the way he wanted.

Anna seemed a little hesitant to step into the hou

    “Babe, what’s wrong?” Liam asked, sensing her sudden stiffening.“Nothing,” she answered absentmindedly, her mind still engrossed in the message. Who could it be? What did the message mean? Was it meant for her, or did the sender get the wrong number? She had too many questions and few answers. But there was only one way to find out. She typed a response.Who are you, and what do you mean?}The tiny checkmarks below the message turned blue immediately, signaling that the person on the other side had read the message. She waited for the reply bubble to appear, but there was none. Two minutes went by, and there was still no response.Anna frowned. Curiosity was eating her up, and she couldn’t sit still anymore. She dialed the number and made the call, but she was met with the mechanical beeping on the other end. The call couldn’t go through. Another message chimed in almost immediately.[Don’t be impati

  • Billionaire's Firecracker    Chapter 48: the holding cell

    The police car door slammed behind Melisa with a hollow, metallic clank that echoed in her chest. She sat there, frozen in the back seat, her wrists stiff in the cuffs resting awkwardly in her lap. The gown bunched beneath her, the high-slit satin twisted uncomfortably against vinyl upholstery. It was too tight, too loud, and too wrong for this space.Outside, the flashes still popped as the crowd buzzed beyond the glass, blurred faces pressed toward the window. Some were still filming. She could hear the shouting even with the windows rolled up. She turned away from the window, pressing her cheek to the cool plastic partition between her and the front seats. No tinted glass would be dark enough now. Her name would be trending before they even hit the next traffic light.She glanced down at her hands, the contrast glaring at her. Her perfectly manicured fingers were shaking. Her wrists were red where the metal had pressed. Her lap, once a place to pose and smile, was now a mess of cru

  • Billionaire's Firecracker    Chapter 47: apologize

    Before Anna could register his meaning, the static image of Melisa on the screen started moving. It was a video of Melisa harassing one of her assistants. Melisa slapped the poor girl just because she couldn’t get her tissues fast enough. The assistant started crying, and Melisa yanked the girl’s hair, demanding her to stop crying and smile for the camera.The shift in the air was palpable as if someone had pulled the oxygen out of the ballroom. It was quiet at first, unnaturally quiet, then the whispers started—not polite murmurs or the gossipy hum you hear when something good happens. No, these whispers were sharp, cutting, loaded with disbelief.The video faded, and another one started. This one showed her pushing an old man off the road because he couldn’t cross fast enough for her car to pass. The old man fell, but she did nothing to help. She only smirked and returned to her car, leaving him struggling to stand.The next one followed was a grainy footage of her shoving a necklac

    Anna stepped out of the car, drawing gasps from the audience. Her dress hugged her, and she radiated confidence as she hooked her hand in the crook of his arm, smiling for the cameras. This was the first event Anna had attended with her husband, and she had put a great deal of effort into dressing up.Her dress was a cascade of deep sapphire silk, liquid in the light, hugging her form with graceful precision. It slipped over her shoulders in an off-the-shoulder neckline, revealing the elegant line of her collarbone and the subtle glow of skin dusted with just enough shimmer to catch the eye without demanding it. The fabric flowed down to the floor in soft, fluid waves, swaying with every step like it had been sewn from midnight itself.Her hair was swept back into a sleek, timeless updo, a few soft strands left loose to frame her face; the kind of face that held your gaze a second longer than you meant to. Calm eyes lined with understated drama. Lips curved with the faintest, knowing s

    Steam clung to the glass, blurring the outside world into nothing but shadow and light. The water poured in a steady rush, warm and loud, filling the shower with a hush that wrapped around them like a secret.His hand traveled down, cleaning off the suds with the water, leaving her skin glowing. His other hand smoothed over her slightly rounded stomach down to the juncture of her thighs. She sucked in a sharp breath, as his fingers grazed her folds.He nipped at her ear as his fingers searched through her folds. With the gentle spray of the water just hitting her hips and nether regions, his two fingers parted her womanly petals, exposing her pink lips. He manipulated her tender flesh, moving back the hood and allowing the water to tease her bundle of nerves.“Please…” she moaned, guiding his hand down to her throbbing core.He smiled, leaning in, letting his lips brush just beneath her ear. “Oh?
