The clock was ticking, each second echoing in my mind like a death knell. One hour. That's all I had to prove my innocence, to save myself from a prison cell.

Liam, his face a mask of grim determination, had reluctantly agreed to help me. He didn't trust me, not entirely, but he knew that if I went down, he would go down with me.

"We need to find the digital footprint of the leak," he said, his voice low and urgent. "We need to find out who accessed the file, who downloaded it, who sent it to t

    The crystal chandeliers of the Grand Vista Ballroom cast prismatic rainbows across marble floors polished to a mirror sheen, where the city’s most powerful figures gathered beneath vaulted ceilings gilded in gold leaf. The air hummed with the clink of champagne flutes and the murmur of deals struck in hushed tones—this was the Chen family’s annual winter reception, an event that had long served as a barometer for the balance of power in the capital.At the center of the room, flanked by security personnel in tailored black suits, stood Chen Wei, patriarch of the dynasty, his weathered face carved into a smile that never quite reached his eyes. Beside him, his son Chen Hao moved through the crowd like a shark through calm waters, pressing palms and exchanging pleasantries with the practiced ease of someone born to privilege. Tonight was supposed to be a celebration of the family’s latest acquisition—a telecommunications conglomerate that would extend their reach into every corner of th

  • Dynamic kiss “love has no limit”   CHAPTER 51: THE ALTAR OF DECEIT

    The stained-glass windows of St. Catherine’s Cathedral cast rainbow fragments across the marble floors, each shard of light cutting through the heavy scent of lilies and incense that hung in the air. Rows of pews were filled with Lagos’s elite – business tycoons in tailored suits, socialites in gowns that cost more than most people earned in a year, reporters with cameras hidden behind programs, all waiting to witness the union that would supposedly restore the Chen family’s shattered reputation.Kayla stood in the front row, just to the left of the altar, wearing a simple navy dress that Kang Jin had “gifted” her that morning – a clear message that she was to be seen and not heard. Her hands were folded tightly in front of her, her knuckles white as she watched Liam stand at the altar, his back straight, his face a mask of perfect composure. Beside him, Qing Lin wore a gown of ivory silk embroidered with thousands of tiny pearls, her dark hair pinned up in an elaborate crown of braid

  • Dynamic kiss “love has no limit”   CHAPTER 50: THE EVE OF THE SACRIFICE

    The rooftop of the old warehouse stretched out before them like a forgotten battlefield – concrete cracked and stained, shadows dancing across the floor where crates of stolen goods sat untouched. Liam stood by the edge of the roof, his hands braced against the cold metal railing as he watched the sun set over the city.“Kayla,” he said, his voice quiet despite the wind. “I know you’re scared. I know you think you have to do this alone.”She turned to face him, her eyes filled with tears. “I don’t have a choice, Liam. Leo is gone – taken by people who want to hurt us. And I can’t let them win.”The warehouse door swung open, and Jordan walked in, his face pale with exhaustion. He’d been tracking Natali’s movements for weeks, knowing she’d be looking for a way to get revenge. Seeing her with the loan sharks confirmed his worst fears.“Leo,” he said, his voice cracking. “They have him – I tried to stop them, but they were too fast.”Kayla felt her heart break. “We have to get him back.

    The grand ballroom of the Chen estate had been transformed in forty-eight hours flat – crystal chandeliers sparkled like captured stars, white roses climbed every pillar, and rows of gold-chased chairs faced a raised platform where the officiant would stand. Kang Jin stood at the center of the room, his eyes sweeping across the space with cold satisfaction.“Everything must be perfect,” he said to the event planner, who hovered at his elbow with a tablet in hand. “The press will be here in full force. This wedding will erase every trace of the scandal.”The planner nodded quickly, her pen flying across her notepad. “Yes, sir. The orchestra is tuned, the cake is being iced, and all invitations have been reissued – every major client, every industry leader, every reporter who matters.”“Good,” Kang Jin said. “My son will marry Qing Lin tomorrow evening. No more delays, no more mistakes.”Liam found Qing Lin in the garden, sitting on the bench where they’d first talked about the encrypte

    The hospital’s waiting room was quiet except for the soft beep of monitors and the distant sound of footsteps in the hallway. Kayla sat beside Leo’s bed, holding his small hand as he slept, his face peaceful despite the bandages wrapped around his wrist where the rope had cut into his skin.Jordan stood by the window, his shoulders slumped with exhaustion. They’d gotten to Leo just in time – the loan sharks had been loading him into a van when Liam’s team intercepted them, tackling Marcus and his men before they could drive away. Leo was safe, but the trauma of what had happened would stay with him forever.“He’s going to be okay,” Jordan said quietly, turning to face Kayla. “The doctors gave him a sedative – he’ll sleep for a while. But he keeps asking for you. For Mommy Kayla.”Kayla felt tears prick her eyes. “I should have been there. I should have protected him.”“You couldn’t have known,” Jordan said, sitting beside her. “Natali planned this – she knew exactly what she was doing

    The warehouse door slammed shut behind Kayla and Liam as they burst into the main floor, the sound echoing off the concrete walls like thunder. Leo was still tied to the chair, his face pale with fear but his eyes filled with a courage she’d never seen in anyone so young.“Let him go,” Kayla said, her voice steady despite the trembling in her hands. “This has nothing to do with him – he’s just a child.”Natali laughed, a cold, sharp sound that cut through the tension. “A child who’s been used as leverage since the day you met him. He’s not your son, Kayla – he’s a pawn. And pawns get sacrificed when the game ends.”She stepped forward, her knife glinting in the dim light. “But if you want him back, you’ll give me the file. Every last page of it. Or I’ll make sure he spends the rest of his life in a place you’ll never find him.”Kayla lunged for Natali, but one of the loan sharks grabbed her arm, twisting it behind her back. “Not so fast,” he growled. “We have rules too.”Liam appeared
