It's been four hours since Alice has been unconscious after the successful surgery. Her face, though drained of color, still carried that quiet defiance he knew too well. Even in unconsciousness, she looked like she was fighting something—pain, exhaustion, maybe even herself.

Adrian was already inside. He had taken the far corner of the room, arms folded, his expression unreadable beneath the dim hospital light. Lillian had seated herself closer to the bed, crossing one leg over the other, her posture too poised for the setting. Vincent sat still his mind elsewhere—stuck between the relief of seeing Alice breathing and the ache of everything that had led to this moment.

He stayed standing for a long time, his hands buried deep in his coat pockets. Every breath he took felt heavy. Watching her like this—silent, still, stripped of the spark that made her—gnawed at him. She was never quiet. Even when angry, even when reckless, she was alive in every gesture, every glance.

Now, she looke

    The video was still playing.Lilian’s face filled the screen of my laptop, pale and trembling, her voice quivering perfectly on cue. The lighting was soft, almost angelic. The angle was chosen with care. Every bow, every slap, every stagger was measured.I barely glanced at it.I pushed the laptop aside with two fingers, the chair creaking softly as I leaned back and reached for my phone instead.I didn’t care.Not about her apology.Not about the media circus.Not about the lies wrapped in fake remorse.My eyes were fixed on one thing.Alice.I refreshed the screen.Nothing.I frowned slightly. I noticed it.She had seen the message.Read.But no reply.I stared at the chat for a few seconds longer than necessary, my jaw tightening just a bit.“So that’s how you’re playing it,” I muttered.I knew her.If I framed it as a date, she wouldn’t come.She was cautious now. Guarded. Too much history, too many wounds, too many eyes watching her every move.I exhaled slowly and typed again.

    The storm didn’t start quietly.It exploded.By the time I realized how bad it had gotten, the internet was already on fire.Everywhere.Every platform.Every headline screaming the same name.Lilian.I lay back against the couch in my villa, one leg folded under me, phone loose in my hand as notification after notification flooded the screen. Media enterprises, entertainment blogs, fashion pages, news outlets—every single one of them had picked it up.Lilian Issues Public Apology.Lilian Breaks Down Over Plagiarism Scandal.Truth Revealed: Assistant Responsible.I let out a low laugh.“So fast,” I murmured. “You didn’t even give the dust time to settle.”Celebrities had already joined in.Designers.Actors.Influencers.People who had once smiled politely at me at events and never bothered to remember my name. I trust Lilian. She would never do something like this. She’s always been professional. This is clearly a misunderstanding.Retweets.Reposts.Stories with sad music layered

    The next morning came with a headache that felt like someone was drilling straight through my skull. The hospital room smelled like disinfectant and fake flowers. Too clean. Too bright. Too quiet. I hated it. I lay back against the pillows, staring at the ceiling, when I heard a soft rustle beside me. My assistant was sitting there. Her eyes were swollen. Dark circles sat heavily under them, as if she hadn’t slept at all. Her shoulders were slumped, hands folded tightly in her lap. She looked smaller than usual. Weaker. “Why are you sitting there like that?” I snapped. She flinched immediately. “I—I’m sorry, Ms. Lilian,” she said quickly. “I didn’t want to wake you.” “Wake me?” I scoffed. “Do you think I slept?” She opened her mouth, then closed it again. “As if she didn't rest at all,” I muttered. “You look worse than I do.” I pushed myself up slightly, irritation bubbling in my chest. “With Lillian ordering her up and then getting disheartened with this.” “G

    In the hospital, her manager was talking about the news, how some neitizens were insulting her, mocking her, saying that she actually fainted at the right time.“Do you know what they’re saying now?” my manager asked, pacing in front of the hospital bed, tablet clutched in his hands like it was burning him.I stared at the ceiling.“They’re calling it… strategic fainting,” he continued cautiously. “They’re saying you collapsed exactly when things turned against you.”I clenched my jaw.“Some are mocking you,” he added, swallowing. “They’re saying—”“Stop,” I snapped.He didn’t.“They’re saying you played the victim card perfectly. That you’re manipulative. That it was all planned.”The words dug under my skin, clawing, scratching.“They’re even making memes,” he said softly. “Videos. Commentaries. Saying you fainted at the right time.”I was so angry that she poured the cup of tea I was holding on my manager's face, telling him to get lost.The tea splashed across his cheek, dripping

  • We Divorced Now He Wants Me Back (Billionaire Contract Wife)   Maybe A New Start

    That same day, the night, my boys were roaming around playing with the toys we sent to Godden.“Vroom—vroom!”“Darling, don’t crash it!”“I’m not crashing it, Dilion, you’re the one in my way!”The living room barely looked like a living room anymore. Bright colors everywhere. Plastic wheels. Tiny cars. Building blocks scattered across the rug like landmines. Stuffed animals slumped against the couch. It felt like childhood had exploded inside my home and decided to stay.I smiled faintly as I leaned against the doorway, watching them.The toys were filled around the whole house, and I was wondering if he was planning to spoil these boys so hard.“Mom!” Darling shouted, holding up a toy robot. “Look! Daddy sent this one too!”Daddy.The word lingered.I opened my mouth to respond when suddenly—Darling and Dilion quickly rushed to me, asking when they were going to visit their dad again.“Mommy,” Dilion asked, tugging my sleeve, eyes shining.“When are we going to see Daddy again?”“C

    I raised my hand and pointed directly at the dress Lilian had just claimed herself.I disowned that dress.The words didn’t echo, but the reaction did.The whole crowd erupted in whispers, muttering, asking if I was crazy or what. The sound rose like a swarm—confused, sharp, cruel. I could hear my name being dragged through mouths that didn’t even know me. I could feel judgment pressing down on my shoulders like invisible hands.Lilian was already frozen there shivering.For the first time since I walked into that hall, she didn’t look confident. Her smile cracked, just slightly, but enough. Her fingers clenched around the fabric near her waist, knuckles whitening, breath uneven. She tried to compose herself, and she stared at me.Her eyes weren’t triumphant anymore.They were afraid.She asked me what was I saying, like if I was insane or what." Are you sick upstairs, Ms Alice?" She asked with a forced smile.Her voice sounded louder than it should have, sharp and brittle, like glas
