THE WOMAN BESIDE LUCIEN CROSS

By the next morning, my name was everywhere.

I did not even need to open social media to know it, because the moment I stepped into Ava’s apartment and saw the expression on her face, I already understood how far things had spread overnight. She stood near the kitchen counter holding her phone in one hand and coffee in the other, staring at me with a mixture of concern and disbelief that immediately made my chest tighten again.

“You need to see this.”

  • He Divorced Me… But I Was Never His To Lose(regret & desire)   CHAPTER 30

    YOUR MOTHER BETRAYED YOUFor a second, nobody moved.The warehouse corridor became deathly silent except for the distant echo of gunfire somewhere above us and the soft metallic hum of the security systems surrounding the underground passage.Evelyn Hart stood beneath the dim emergency lights looking perfectly composed despite the chaos unfolding around her. Her black coat remained untouched by rain, her diamond earrings catching the faint red lighting while armed men spread out quietly behind her in disciplined formation.The sight alone made my blood run cold.Because this no longer looked like suspicion.It looked like confirmation.Beside me, Damian went completely still.Not shocked.Not confused.Still.The kind of stillness that came before something dangerous.“Move away from her.”His voice sounded colder than I had ever heard it before.Evelyn’s gaze shifted briefly toward me before returning calmly to her son.“You are injured.”The lack of emotion in her tone made the situ

    THEY WANT TO DESTROY HIM PUBLICLY The warehouse felt smaller after the news vans appeared outside.Not physically.Psychologically.Like the walls around us had suddenly become transparent while cameras and reporters waited beyond the gates, ready to consume whatever happened next and feed it to the entire country before sunrise.Rain continued pouring outside, but now flashing media lights cut through the darkness beyond the compound walls, flickering across the security monitors like warning signs.“They planned this.”Lucien’s voice lowered slightly as he studied the screens.“This was never only about the heir.”Damian’s expression remained dangerously calm beside me.“They want control publicly.”The realization settled heavily through the room.If Damian disappeared quietly, the Hart empire could still recover.But if they destroyed him publicly…If they made him look weak, unstable, compromised…The empire itself would fracture from the inside.Board members would panic.Inves

    THEY WANT DAMIAN ALIVEThe warehouse fell silent again.Not the tense silence from before.This one felt colder.Sharper.More dangerous.“They are here for you.”Every pair of eyes shifted toward Damian immediately while security alarms continued flashing red across the monitors. Outside, rain poured heavily over the compound, coating the black SUVs surrounding the warehouse in silver reflections beneath the floodlights.Fifteen vehicles.Maybe more.Far too many.Beside me, Damian’s expression barely changed after hearing the news.That somehow frightened me more than panic would have.Lucien stared at the security screens carefully.“How many confirmed?”“At least forty men.”One of the guards zoomed in on the footage.“Heavy weapons.”My stomach twisted violently.This was not intimidation anymore.This looked military.“They changed targets.”I looked toward Damian instinctively.“Why?”Before he could answer, Lucien did.“Because controlling the heir is easier with the father al

    THE CHILD THEY FEARThe silence after those words felt suffocating.Rain battered against the warehouse roof above us while nobody inside the room moved, every pair of eyes locked onto the man kneeling between the guards as tension spread heavily through the compound.“The child will either save the Hart empire or destroy it completely.”My heartbeat slowed painfully.I looked toward Damian instinctively.His expression had gone completely unreadable now, but the tension in his jaw told me enough. Whatever this meant, part of him already understood it.Lucien stepped forward first.“Explain.”The traitor swallowed hard.“I do not know everything.”Damian’s voice cut through the room instantly.“You are running out of chances.”The calmness in his tone sent another chill through me.The man nodded quickly.“The people contacting me kept saying the same thing over and over.”“What people?”The man hesitated.“I never saw their faces.”Lucien looked unimpressed.“You expect us to believe

    THERE IS A TRAITOR IN THE ROOMThe warehouse seemed to go completely silent after the guard spoke.Rain still hammered against the metal roof above us, security monitors still flickered across the walls, people still moved through the compound, but suddenly every sound felt distant compared to the sentence echoing inside my head.Someone inside this warehouse was feeding them information.Fear crept slowly through my chest again, colder this time because it felt more personal now. We had already survived explosions, gunfire, betrayal inside Damian’s company, betrayal inside the Hart family, and now even the place we escaped to was compromised.There was nowhere safe.Lucien’s expression hardened instantly.“Who knows this location?”“Only internal personnel.”The guard answered carefully.“And the convoy team from earlier.”Lucien looked toward the security monitors for several long seconds before speaking again.“Lock every exit.”The atmosphere changed immediately.Steel doors slamm

    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 happening so naturally that I barely noticed it until Damian’s eyes dropped toward it immediately.His entire expression tightened.“They are not getting near either of you.”The certainty in his voice sounded dangerous now.Not emotional.Territorial.Lucien looked toward the guard again.“Who sent the message?”“We could not trace the original source.”“That means it came through internal channels.”Damian’s jaw hardened instantly after that.Someone inside the Hart empire really was helping the
