YOU ARE MORE VALUABLE ALIVE

The rain continued pouring over the compound while silence settled heavily around all of us after the guard’s words. For a second, nobody moved. Nobody even seemed to breathe properly.

“They want the Hart heir alive at all costs.”

The sentence wrapped around my chest like something cold and suffocating.

Not me.

The baby.

That was the priority now.

Fear spread slowly through my body as my hand instinctively pressed against my stomach again, the protective movement ha

  • He Divorced Me… But I Was Never His To Lose(regret & desire)   CHAPTER 220

    The Child in the PhotographLittle Sparrow forgot to breathe.The old photograph remained suspended between her trembling fingers while the library around her seemed to retreat into an impossible distance, leaving only the faded image beneath the yellow glow of the reading lamp and the blue scarf wrapped around her own shoulders, suddenly heavier than it had ever felt before.She looked from the photograph...To the scarf...Then back again.The fabric was identical.Not merely similar.The same tiny white flowers embroidered along the edges.The same uneven stitching near one corner where someone had repaired a small tear by hand instead of replacing it.Even the faded blue had aged in the same way.Her grandfather had once smiled when she asked why he never bought her a new one."Some things shouldn't be replaced simply because they've become

    The River That VanishedFor a long time, no one spoke after Thomas rolled Eleanor's map closed.The room had gradually emptied as the afternoon slipped toward evening. The villagers, satisfied that every stranger had eaten and every frightened child had found somewhere safe to sleep, quietly returned to their homes carrying empty baskets and borrowed blankets. The international observers drifted back toward the valley to organize medical supplies and temporary shelters, while the journalists, perhaps for the first time in their careers, discovered that the most important story unfolding before them was one that could not be rushed into tomorrow's headlines.Eventually only the family remained.Thomas stood beside the eastern window, the rolled map tucked carefully beneath one arm, while Samuel's old pocket watch rested securely inside his coat beside Eleanor's final letter and Noah's impossible note. Three people who had shaped his li

    Where the Children Built BoatsFor several long moments, no one reached for the map.It rested quietly in Thomas's hands, the yellowed paper trembling ever so slightly in the afternoon breeze drifting through the open windows, while the words Eleanor had written across its corner seemed almost too simple to belong at the end of a mystery that had consumed more than two decades.Start where the children built boats.Thomas smiled.Not because he understood.Because Eleanor had done exactly what she had always done.She had answered an impossible question with an ordinary memory.Claire stepped beside him."I remember those boats."Thomas looked at her."So do I."Michael frowned."I don't.""You were too young."Thomas carefully unfolded the fragile paper across the dining table.It wasn't

    The River That RememberedThe room remained silent long after Thomas spoke.No one questioned him.Not because they fully understood what he meant, but because they had spent the last two days watching impossible truths emerge from ordinary objects, forgotten memories, and conversations they had once believed were finished forever. If Thomas said the river held the answer, then the river deserved to be heard before anyone tried to explain it away.He continued turning Samuel's old pocket watch over in his hands, his thumb resting gently upon the cracked silver casing while the frozen hands remained fixed at 3:17, and the more he studied the familiar scratches worn into its surface, the more details returned from a place inside his memory that grief had quietly sealed away.Claire noticed his expression."You've remembered something."Thomas smiled faintly."No."H

    The Door He Never OpenedThomas held the tiny brass key in the center of his palm without speaking.It looked impossibly ordinary.The metal had darkened with age except where decades of careful handling had polished its edges smooth, and its small teeth had been filed by hand rather than machine, the workmanship instantly recognizable to him because he remembered shaping them himself beneath the glow of an oil lamp while Eleanor sat nearby reading aloud from one of her favorite novels, occasionally pausing to tell him he was making entirely too much noise for someone claiming to be building history.He had laughed then.He wasn't laughing now.Michael stepped closer."Father."Thomas didn't answer.His thumb slowly traced the worn grooves cut into the brass until it stopped upon a tiny mark almost invisible beneath the years.A single carved letter.

    The Girl Who Walked Without FearNo one went down the mountain to meet her.Not because they lacked the desire.Because something about the quiet confidence with which the young girl crossed the meadow suggested she had earned the right to arrive on her own terms. She neither hurried nor hesitated, her steady footsteps carrying her along the winding stone path as though she had walked it countless times before, while the warm afternoon sun filtered gently through the pines, scattering shifting patterns of light across the ground until it seemed the entire mountain had paused to watch her approach.Thomas remained at the doorway.His weathered hands rested loosely at his sides, yet Serena noticed they were trembling ever so slightly, not with the weakness of age but with the uncertainty of a man standing before a moment he had never dared imagine, because after everything Noah had done, after every deception, every carefully

    CONFIRM ITThe car came to a slow, controlled stop beneath the private entrance of the hospital, and for a moment, I didn’t move, my eyes fixed on the glass doors ahead as the reality of everything began to settle in with a weight I could no longer ignore. The city lights reflected faintly against

    YOU ARE NOT SAFEThe elevator doors slid open with a soft chime, but for a moment, I didn’t move. The words still echoed in my head, sharp and impossible to ignore, repeating themselves in a way that made it difficult to think clearly or even breathe normally.“You’re pregnant.”It didn’t make sens

    YOU DON'T GET TO TOUCH ME AGAINThe moment I stepped out of the consultation room, the air in the corridor felt different, heavier than before, as though something had shifted quietly while I was inside, something I could not see yet but could already feel pressing in around me. My steps slowed wit

    HE FELT IT TOO LATEThe moment the elevator doors closed behind her, the office fell into a silence that felt unnatural, almost suffocating, as though something essential had just been removed without warning. Damian Hart remained standing behind his desk, his gaze fixed on the door long after Sere
