"Nice writing." Cecilia flicked the folded newspaper with a mocking lift of her brow. "Maybe you should go ask who's so talented at turning this mess into a front-page spectacle."

Giles clenched his jaw so hard it trembled. His eyes were already red.

"You're the one who not even Dad's kid," he choked out. "So why is my name plastered all over this?"

His voice shook with anger and humiliation.

Cecilia let out a sharp, taunting laugh. "Take it up with your dear mother."

She paused, her tone turning blade-thin.

"Ask her which man she was crawling into bed with when she had you."

"Shut up!" Giles finally broke, tears spilling down his face. He sniffed hard, voice cracking. "It was you, wasn't it? You did this on purpose!"

He was desperate for someone to blame—and Cecilia was the easiest target in sight.

"I don't have time to babysit your family drama." She tossed the newspaper aside and stepped toward the curb, trying to wave down a cab.

But the kid had completely snapped, like a rabid mu

  • Dumped Her Ex, Married A Secret Billionaire    Dying

    Outside the emergency building of Presbyterian Hospital, the wail of ambulance sirens sliced through the sky—sharp enough to make anyone's heart seize.Two ambulances screeched to a halt almost simultaneously at the emergency entrance.The moment the doors opened, two mangled, blood-soaked bodies were rushed out on stretchers, one after the other.Dave followed behind, completely rattled, his face drained of color.His gaze darted between the two stretchers, not even knowing whom he should be more worried about.Margaret lay motionless, her body limp. If not for the faint, flickering line on the ECG monitor, she looked no different from a corpse.Her face was covered in blood, her breathing so weak it was barely perceptible.On the other stretcher, Edward's condition was even more chilling.Blood streamed from a deep gash on his forehead—so deep the bone was visible. But the most horrifying sight was his thigh: a massive shard of glass was lodged deep inside, soaking the sheet beneath

  • Dumped Her Ex, Married A Secret Billionaire   Car Accident

    Edward crushed the cigarette in the ashtray with a sharp, impatient motion, barely noticing when the burning tip singed his fingertips.Click—The sound of the car door opening snapped him out of his thoughts.Margaret slipped inside, settling into the front passenger seat. Her makeup was immaculate, her clothing elegant, every detail perfectly arranged—as if she hadn't just been crying upstairs minutes ago.Edward pressed his fingers to his brow, expression blank."Sit in the back."The air froze instantly.Margaret's hand tightened around her purse, her knuckles whitening."Why?""No reason." His voice was cool, rigid. "Sit in the back."She didn't move.She knew all too well—once she stepped out of the front seat, she would no longer be the woman beside him. She would be nothing.Edward suddenly opened his door, circled the hood, and yanked open the passenger-side door. He reached for her arm without hesitation."Let go of me!" Margaret struggled, but he was too strong.His movemen

    Upstairs, Margaret closed the bedroom door and slid down against it, her back pressed to the wood.Her hands trembled as she clutched her phone. The familiar weight now felt crushing—like it might break her fingers.She shook her head, trying to clear the fog in her vision, but the tears kept falling uncontrollably.She dialed a number.The call barely rang once before the other side picked up in a panic."He knows, doesn't he?" Dave's voice was frantic, breath unsteady. "Margaret, what happened? Tell me what's going on."Sitting on the floor, Margaret sounded more terrified—and more hopeless—than she ever had."Dave… you were right."She closed her eyes as tears streamed down her cheeks."I miscalculated. I really miscalculated."She had thought she could keep control forever.She had thought she could bury the truth.She had thought she could protect everything she built.But everything had collapsed."Margaret, come here," Dave urged, voice thick with worry. "We'll leave. We'll wal

    Out in the hallway, Margaret paced back and forth, her heartbeat tripping over itself.The news had broken an hour earlier.At first, she'd secretly celebrated. The hit piece trashing Cecilia had felt like long-overdue revenge—a slap Cecilia deserved.But her satisfaction hadn't even lasted ten minutes before the next wave of headlines detonated across the internet.Giles's parentage.Exposed.Everywhere.Her composure collapsed instantly. Her palms were slick with cold sweat, her pulse racing so violently she felt light-headed.How did this happen?Who leaked it?The study door swung open.Edward stood there, gaze icy as it locked onto the anxious woman outside. His voice was arctic-cold, every syllable cutting like frost."Your son cracked his head open. He's at Presbyterian Hospital."Each word was emotionless—impersonal. As if he were speaking to a stranger.Margaret's heart lurched hard. Her breath hitched. But she forced herself to swallow her panic and asked, carefully,"Are we

    The VIP lounge was quiet, sunlight pouring through the floor-to-ceiling windows.Outside, a jet roared down the runway and shot into the sky, slicing through the vast clouds before vanishing into the horizon.Liam ended his call with Nick, his eyes still following the departing aircraft, the corner of his mouth curved with lingering amusement.He could imagine exactly what Nick's expression looked like right now—and it had to be priceless."Sir, it's time to board," Sid reminded him gently, luggage in hand.Liam hummed in acknowledgment but didn't rise immediately. He glanced at his phone, his fingers tapping lightly across the screen.The ringtone echoed crisply through the quiet lounge."Did you take off yet?" The moment the call connected, a woman's voice rushed through—tense, eager.Liam's expression softened instantly, warmed by a smile.
