2026-07-15 22:55:10"Celeste, are you sure you want me to draft the divorce papers?" Naomi's voice crackled through the phone, laced with hesitation and concern. "Think about it. Once you sign them, you and Adrian will have nothing to do with each other anymore."
Celeste stared at the amber liquid swirling in her crystal glass. The scotch burned her throat, but it couldn't wash away the memories of last night. Her fingers tightened around the phone. "Yes," she finally replied, her voice calm but resolute. "I'm leaving him." "Why?" Naomi asked, unable to hide her confusion. "Adrian has always been so good to you. He loves you so much." Celeste almost laughed. Love. What a joke. She pressed her lips together, swallowing the bitter taste rising in her throat. "Just prepare the divorce papers, Naomi," she said quietly before ending the call. After hanging up, Celeste walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. Across the street, the massive LED billboard was still replaying yesterday's press conference. Adrian stood confidently in his perfectly tailored suit, holding up an exquisite diamond necklace. Using the world's finest diamonds and rarest gemstones, he had created a one-of-a-kind piece for his beloved wife. It was called Forever Celeste. He had named it after her, publicly declaring his eternal love before countless cameras. The moment it was unveiled, Forever Celeste became the hottest topic on every social media platform. The entire world admired what they believed was a perfect love story. Outside, the billboard continued to replay the announcement. Celeste let out a hollow chuckle. "Eternal love?" she murmured to herself. "And yet you still had the nerve to betray me on our anniversary." Last night had been their third wedding anniversary. Adrian had called earlier that day, telling her he had a special surprise planned and asking her to wait for him at home. Excited, Celeste wore his favorite red dress, lit scented candles throughout the dining room, and prepared all of his favorite dishes. Then she waited patiently for her husband to come home. She waited... And waited... Even after midnight passed, Adrian never returned. Before she knew it, dawn was breaking. At four o'clock in the morning, her phone suddenly buzzed. It was a F******k friend request from a stranger with a blank profile picture. Attached was a short message. A surprise for you. Celeste was about to reject the request when another message appeared. Are you still awake? Finding it hard to sleep because your husband isn't in bed with you? A chill ran down her spine. How did this stranger know Adrian hadn't come home? She didn't accept the request, but the messages kept coming. Stop pretending you don't care. I know you're reading this. Another message followed. Everyone thinks he's such a good man. What a shame. Each notification pierced her heart like a knife. Her hands trembled uncontrollably. Her mind insisted it had to be nothing more than a cruel prank. But deep down, she knew otherwise. Unable to endure the torment any longer, Celeste accepted the friend request with shaking fingers. Immediately, the stranger sent her an address, followed by a four-digit password. 0523. It was their wedding anniversary. Without a second thought, Celeste grabbed her keys, rushed out of the house, and drove to the address. It led to a luxury condominium. Standing before the apartment door, she stared at the electronic keypad through tear-filled eyes. Slowly, she entered the code. 0523. A soft click echoed through the hallway. The door unlocked. A man's suit jacket lay scattered in the sitting room,she recognized it as the second year anniversary gift she had given Adrian, which was what he wore when he left that morning. A pair of black lace panties lay on the floor next to his jacket, A wine glass with a woman's lipstick stain on it lay on the table. From the hallway to the bedroom, men's and women's clothing were scattered everywhere let's not forget the red transparent night gown,that was torn to shreds, lying by the door. Celeste legs were so shaky that she could barely stand,she trembled as she opened the half already opened bedroom door. On the bed, was Adrian, naked, embraced in another woman's body.The woman knelt down,her head buried between Adrian's legs, sucking Adrian's penis. Adrian's eyes were closed,his face has an expression of enjoyment and..... moaning "yesssssss, that's it, damnnnnnn"..... "Am I better... or is your Celeste better?" the woman asked smugly. Adrian responded “You really think you can compare yourself to Celeste?”huh,huh,huh, you little slut. Then he turned the woman around, snatched her waist from behind,and thrust recklessly. The woman's moans mixed with Adrian's heavy gasps. The sight before her shattered what remained of Celeste's heart. Six years. Six years had passed since their innocent college romance had blossomed into marriage. Everyone had admired them, envied them, and called them a match made in heaven. Now, it all felt like a cruel joke. The love she had treasured, the vows they had exchanged, and the future they had built together crumbled before her eyes. A wave of nausea surged through her. Clamping a hand over her mouth to stop herself from being sick, Celeste stumbled backward before turning and fleeing the room as fast as she could. Celeste drove aimlessly until she found a quiet bar. She slipped into a corner booth and ordered glass after glass of scotch. The sharp burn of the liquor scorched her throat, but it did nothing to numb the ache in her heart. When Sandra received her call, she rushed over immediately. By the time she arrived, Celeste was already completely drunk. "Celeste..." Sandra's voice cut through the haze as she slid into the seat across from her, her face etched with worry. "Why are you this drunk? What happened? Did Adrian do something?" Celeste slowly lifted her bloodshot eyes to meet hers. "Sandy..." she mumbled hoarsely. "I don't want to hear his name right now... please." She raised the glass to her lips and took another long sip. The scotch left a bitter taste in her mouth, one that paled in comparison to the bitterness in her heart. "Sandy..." she whispered after a long silence. "I saw him with another woman. I saw it with my own eyes." Her voice trembled. "So there's no misunderstanding." Sandra's heart ached as she reached across the table and gently squeezed Celeste's hand. "Celeste... maybe the two of you should sit down and talk this through." "There's nothing to talk about." Celeste cut her off without hesitation. "I want a divorce." She lowered her head, her voice barely above a whisper. "Every time I think about him... and what he did..." She closed her eyes, fighting back another wave of nausea. "It makes me sick." What do you think?

Someone knew about the box. Someone knew about my mother."Her voice shook with anger."I deserve the truth."Her father lowered his head."The Eve laboratory was built beneath the old Blackwood research facility."Celeste's eyes widened."Where?""The facility was demolished years ago.""That's not what I asked."He sighed."North District.

The door handle turned.Celeste's entire body went rigid.For one terrifying second, she couldn't move.Then her father's voice broke through the darkness."Celeste, now!"She grabbed the black metal box and shoved it into her handbag.The door opened.A shadow appeared in the doorway.Celeste's heart slammed against her ribs."Who are you?"The figure stepped inside."Don't scream."It was a woman.She wore a dark security uniform, but there was something immediately wrong about her.The hospital badge hanging from her neck was upside down.Celeste instinctively stepped backward."You're not hospital security."The woman smiled faintly."Good. Your mother was right about you."Celeste froze."You knew my mother?"Before the woman could answer, a loud crash echoed from the hallway.Her expression changed."They're here.""Who?""The people who have been looking for that box."The woman pointed toward the bathroom."There's an emergency stairwell behind the service panel.

The photograph remained on the desk long after Arthur left.Celeste hadn't moved.Her eyes stayed fixed on the four words written across the back.Trust no Blackwood.And beneath them, the name that made the warning impossible to ignore.Especially Lucien.The room felt different now.Not because Lucien had changed.Because Celeste had.For the first time, a small crack had appeared in the certainty she had built around him.Lucien noticed.He always noticed everything."You don't have to decide what to believe tonight," he said quietly.Celeste looked up."That's convenient."His expression remained calm."What's convenient?""You're telling me not to trust you.""I'm telling you to think."She stood slowly."You've known about my bloodline.""I discovered it recently.""You knew my family's connection to yours.""Yes.""You investigated my life before I even knew you.""Yes.""And now I find a photograph of my mother with a man everyone believed was dead, and that man tells us I sho

For several seconds after the call ended, nobody moved.The study seemed to have forgotten how to breathe.Celeste stared at Lucien, searching his face for an explanation, but the man who had remained composed through boardroom wars, corporate scandals, hostile takeovers, and Adrian's endless mistakes now looked genuinely shaken."Marcus?" she whispered.Lucien slowly lowered his phone."Yes."Arthur's expression had gone rigid."That isn't possible."Lucien's eyes moved toward him."You heard the voice.""I did.""Then tell me what you think."Arthur swallowed."I think someone is impersonating a dead man.""He isn't dead."Lucien's voice was quiet."But the records—""Were falsified."The certainty in his voice silenced the room.Celeste stepped toward the desk."If Marcus is alive, why disappear for twenty-two years?"Lucien looked at her."Because he wanted the world to believe he was dead.""Why?""I don't know."Celeste glanced at the photograph still lying on the desk.The litt
FOREVER CELESTE: From wife to aunt. Chapter 40: The Enemy Within
The words remained suspended in the study.They're still alive.Celeste stared at Lucien, waiting for him to explain.For several seconds, he said nothing.The only sound in the room was the faint ticking of the antique clock against the far wall."Who?" Celeste finally asked.Lucien looked down at the letter again."I don't know."Her brows furrowed."You just said they're still alive.""I said the person responsible for what happened to your family is still alive. The letter doesn't identify them."Celeste stepped closer."Then what does it say?"Lucien handed her the paper.There were only a few lines written in dark ink.The truth about the Justin family was never meant to be discovered.Your father was not the first person they tried to silence.Seven years ago, they destroyed everything because Celeste was getting too close to the truth.And now that she knows about the bloodline, they will come for her again.Celeste's fingers tightened around the page."My father."Lucien's ey
