“I know,” I cut in quickly, my voice steadier than I felt, though fear coiled tight inside me. “But if you lose control now, we lose everything. Think, Raven. What does fighting her give us? Nothing but wasted time. And Raya—”

My throat caught before I forced it out. “Raya will be the one who pays.”

The silence that followed was suffocating.

Raven’s chest heaved, fury warring with reason in her eyes. For a terrible second, I thought she’d shove me aside and swing anyway.

Behind me, I felt Feyi’

  • Chasing Midnight Promises    Chapter 178: The End

    The trial didn’t drag on for long. People came forward, one after another, telling what they saw and what they knew. The evidence kept stacking until there was no way out for the Greenwoods.Once, their name opened doors. Now, it made people lower their voices. When the sentence came—life in prison—nobody was surprised. It was just quiet. A heavy kind of relief settled over the city, the kind that comes after years of fear.But fate wasn’t quite done with them.Months later, the grand hall of the Waldorf shone like a dream. Light spilled from the chandeliers, laughter rose and fell, and the sound of glasses touching filled the room.People moved about in their best clothes, smiling for photos, talking about everything except what really mattered. Beneath all that glamour, there was a strange tension—something unspoken.It was supposed to be a happy night. Noah and Mia’s engagement. A night for new beginnings, for promises, for love.And then she walked in.Hannah.The crowd froze. Con

    The jab landed softly, but Ava’s fingers tightened around her glass. She exhaled, regaining her poise.“Let’s not start with claws. I came here as a friend. We both want the same thing, don’t we? Noah.”The name floated between them like a curse.Ava leaned closer, lowering her voice. “You could get him back. I could help you. You were his first love. He’d still fall for you if you tried. In return, you’d help me rebuild what I lost—my father’s company, my connections, my place. We’d both win.”Hannah’s eyes flickered with something unreadable. Once, she might have believed Ava could change. Once, she’d trusted that Ava would grow out of her pettiness. Back in college, Ava had been a tyrant. Hannah thought things would have been different over time, but she was wrong.She set her drink down. “I’m not interested, Ava. Whatever you’re planning, leave me out of it.”The words were calm but final. Ava’s smile faltered. For the first time that night, her charm cracked.“Hannah,” she said s

    Mia blinked, swallowing hard. Tears glistened in her eyes as she stood. She crossed the room slowly, her arms wrapping around Isabella.“It’s okay,” she whispered. “It’s over.”For the first time in years, there was no bitterness between them—only silence that felt like peace.A few minutes later, Noah walked in. He froze, disbelief washing over him at the sight of the two sisters holding hands.Isabella glanced at him and smiled faintly.“We have work to do,” she said. “Ava and her parents took everything from my real family. But this time, they’ll pay for it.”Noah nodded slowly.“Then we make them face the truth,” he said.Mia, Isabella, and Noah started working together. Nobody would have guessed it, not even them. They spent long days meeting in quiet corners, sorting through papers, making plans. It wasn’t about revenge anymore. It was about figuring out the truth, about justice, about finally putting some ghosts to rest.For the first time, the sisters weren’t on opposite sides

  • Chasing Midnight Promises    Chapter 175: Buried Truth

    The name dropped into the room like cold water. Mia’s hands went cold, her mind spinning with memories of Ava—the woman who had already brought chaos once before.Isabella didn’t cry. She laughed instead—sharp, hollow, brittle. “So that’s it? You took me in to fix your guilt? You hid my life to keep your perfect family?”“Isabella—”“Don’t touch me!” she shouted. “You should have let me burn with them. At least then I’d know who I was.”She stormed out, the door slamming so hard the frames trembled. Allison sank to her knees, sobs shaking her shoulders.Later that night, under the cold wash of city lights, Isabella sat across from Ava in a quiet bar. The skyline glittered beyond the glass; inside, two wounded women shared one burning need.“I know what they did,” Isabella said. “Your parents killed mine.”Ava’s cigarette paused midair. “What did you say?”“Don’t act innocent,” Isabella hissed. “You’ve always been good at pretending.”Ava’s eyes hardened. “Whatever happened between our

  • Chasing Midnight Promises    Chapter 174: Alliance 

    While Ava and Isabella's alliance took shape, Mia’s world slowly started to crumble. The pressure from the board, the whispers in the media, and her sister’s constant interference drained her strength. Yet she still tried to hold on to her peace.She would wake up every morning, stare at her father’s picture, and whisper, “I’ll protect what you built, Dad.”But every day, the battle grew harder. Anonymous leaks, false reports, lost investors—the attacks came in waves, and Mia could barely breathe through them.Raven, now living far from New York, heard everything through the news and social media. She wanted to reach out, to send a message or make a call, but guilt held her back. After everything that happened in London, she didn’t know if she had the right to step into Mia’s life again. So she watched from afar, praying silently that Mia would survive it all.Noah, on the other hand, refused to stay away.Since returning from London, he had made up his mind to be there for Mia in any

  • Chasing Midnight Promises    Chapter 173: Between Sisters 

    The rivalry between the Kings sisters grew darker with every passing week. What began as bitter arguments and quiet sabotage slowly turned into something poisonous. Isabella had stopped pretending to be reasonable. She began twisting the truth, changing the narrative both within the company and outside it.“Mia didn’t earn the CEO position,” Isabella told anyone who would listen. “Dad handed it to her because she was his favorite. I was the one here when he died. I was the one who stood by Mom.”The rumors spread like wildfire, whispered in corridors, repeated in board meetings, and splashed subtly across online gossip pages. Mia’s name began to carry a different kind of weight—one that questioned her worth.She fought to stay composed. Every morning, she showed up dressed with quiet confidence, pretending not to hear the whispers. But each rumor chipped away at her. Her father’s chair no longer felt like a seat of legacy. It had become a battlefield.While Mia tried to handle her sis

    Raven had known all this?And she never said a word?My eyes locked on her, but I couldn’t speak. I didn’t know how.Abortion?Was that what she meant? That he forced them to…?End pregnancies?Multiple?I pressed my hand to my mouth, bile rising to the surface. My vision blurred. My stomach twiste

    Noah looked up sharply. “Raven, wait—”“There’s no point hiding,” she cut in. “If we’re innocent, then let them see it.”Her voice cracked on the last word.She moved toward the door, each step slow, like she was walking through mud. The closer she got, the heavier the room felt.The knock didn’t c

    "What do you think people will say happened?”That was the last thing Noah said.And we were still trying. Still piecing together what he already seemed to know. The silence between us wasn’t just silence anymore—it was weight. A pressure. Like sitting underwater and realizing you’re running out of

    I turned fully to him, pulse thudding in my neck, words scrambling to come out with meaning.“Have you even checked properly? Like—really checked? Gone back to her apartment again? What if she just… needed space? Maybe visited someone—family, a friend, anywhere outside town?” My voice cracked. “She
