HEIR OF PAIN Chapter 93: Thin Patience
~~~~~Later In The Evening ~~~~~~ Ryder stretched out his hand and turned off the lampstand. Darkness filled the room almost immediately. He shifted closer and pulled Arden into his arms, fitting him against his chest and then, he kissed Arden’s forehead lightly. “Good night,” Ryder muttered. “Good night,” Arden replied. Ryder’s breathing slowly evened out, but Arden remained wide awake. His eyes stayed open, fixed on nothing. Kyle’s words replayed in his head again and again. The more he thought about it, the more it began to make sense. If Kyle was right… then did that mean his presence was the reason Ryder and Kellan no longer spoke like before? Arden let out another sigh. He tried to stay still, but his thoughts were too loud. Another sigh escaped him. Then another. “What is bothering you?” Ryder’s voice came softly in the dark. Arden stiffened slightly. “You’re awake?” he asked, surprised. “How can I sleep when you keep sighing?” Ryder said calmly. “You know you
HEIR OF PAIN Chapter 92: Be Careful...
Arden couldn’t stop smiling as he and Kyle walked across the campus grounds toward the faculty building. “So?” Kyle asked, lifting an eyebrow. He nudged Arden lightly with his shoulder. “How did it go?” “It worked,” Arden said, grinning from ear to ear. Kyle clicked his tongue in satisfaction. “Perfect. I already connected the camera to your phone. You should start seeing everything soon. Every move she makes. Every word she says. Who knows, you might find out something interesting.” Arden nodded, still smiling. The weight he had been carrying on his shoulders felt lighter. Things were moving forward now. He finally had control. They entered the faculty building and went straight to their lecture hall. ~~~~~EVENING~~~~~ The hours passed quickly, and before they knew it, the sun had dipped lower. Students poured out of the building when classes ended, chatting loudly and stretching their stiff limbs. Arden and Kyle walked out together, backpacks slung over their shoul
HEIR OF PAIN Chapter 91: Hidden Camera...
Arden raised his head and saw Jewel putting a piece of fish onto Ryder’s plate, smiling as if nothing mattered. His eyes narrowed, and a sharp glare fixed on her. Ryder noticed Arden’s gaze and quickly picked up the fish Jewel had placed. Without hesitation, he put it gently on Arden’s plate. “You also like fish, right? Eat plenty of it,” Ryder said, a playful smile on his face. His hand lingered slightly, as if emphasizing that he cared for Arden. Arden looked at him, a mixture of surprise and warmth softening his expression. He nodded slightly and began to eat, keeping his focus on Ryder. Ryder leaned back slightly and asked, “Do you want more fish or anything else?” His voice was calm, yet filled with the subtle teasing that only Arden could recognize. Arden smiled softly and shook his head. “No, I’m fine,” he said. Jewel frowned slightly, her smile faltering. Arden noticed it, but, he focused on finishing his meal while Ryder continued to keep an eye on him. A moment
HEIR OF PAIN Chapter 90: Plan
Kyle shook his head slowly, his lips pressed in a thin angry line. He couldn’t hide the disbelief on his face. “That witch has gone too far,” he said, rubbing his palm over his forehead as if trying to calm his own temper. Arden sat opposite him, his arms folded tightly against his chest. Kyle leaned closer. “But don’t worry too much. I already have the perfect plan to push that witch out of the mansion.” Arden raised a brow and leaned forward, curious. “How? What are you thinking?” Kyle lifted his chin with confidence. “Planting a camera in her room.” Arden blinked. “Huh? How will that help?” Kyle sighed loudly. He shook his head at Arden with a look that said he was tired of explaining obvious things. “Use your head sometimes, will you?” Kyle said. “Her room is the only place she can talk freely because she thinks no one can hear or see her there. If she’s hiding a secret, that’s where it will come out. And we can finally see if she’s really pregnant or just lying.”
HEIR OF PAIN Chapter 89: My Ardy...
~~~~~~~NIGHT~~~~~~~ After spending the whole afternoon at the beach, Kellan and Arden returned in the evening. The wind outside had cooled, brushing gently against the car windows as they moved along the quiet road. Kellan kept his eyes on the road, his hands steady on the steering wheel. He glanced once at Arden through the corner of his eye. “You’re feeling better now?” he asked softly. Arden, who had been staring out the window for minutes, slowly turned his head. His expression was calmer than earlier, though a faint sadness still lingered in his eyes. He nodded. “Yes… a little.” Kellan let out a small smile. “Good. I’m glad I could make you feel better.” He paused, debating with himself before taking a small chance. “How about we do this often? Just… go out. Relax. Clear your mind.” Arden sighed lightly and looked outside again. “I’m not sure,” he murmured. His voice was gentle but tired. Kellan nodded, accepting it without pushing further. “It’s okay. We’ll take thi
HEIR OF PAIN Chapter 88: A Story...
Ryder ran his hand through his hair in utter frustration. He had been stupid to let his emotions get to him. Everything that happened replayed in his head, hitting him like a heavy punch he didn’t see coming. Earlier, before Arden came in, Jewel had walked inside with her protruding tummy. Ryder couldn’t deny it—anytime he saw Jewel with her pregnancy, the past slapped him in the face. It reminded him of the guilt he tried so hard to bury. It reminded him of everything he wished he could undo. That was why he avoided her as much as possible. That was why he tried to give Arden peace of mind. Arden didn’t deserve to suffer because of a past he had no idea about. When Jewel walked into the room, she stood right in front of Ryder, tears slipping down her face. He didn’t even bother hiding the irritation in his eyes. “Who the fuck let you in? And why are you crying?” Ryder asked sharply. “Why?” Jewel’s voice cracked as she sobbed harder. “Why are you doing this to me?” “If you’r
