Julian’s POV.

I stood outside Kristina’s parent's house, after two nights of thinking and coming up with several plans on how to counter their opposition and know how to force them to accept it without them hurting Clarence.

I pressed the doorbell and almost immediately, the door swung open, revealing Mrs. Paulo.

Her eyes widened when she saw me.

"Julian," she said, stepping aside. "What a surprise. Come in."

I stepped inside, Mr. Paulo was already seated in the living room, his eyes fixed on me as I walked in.

"Julian," he said.

"Are you here to apologize and talk about the wedding after realizing you're wrong?"

I didn’t sit. Instead, I stood in the middle of the sitting room, hands in my pockets.

"No, I didn't come because of that. I came to talk about Kristina," I said, my voice steady.

Mrs. Paulo’s smile faltered. "What about Kristina? Is she okay?"

"She’s fine," I said, meeting her eyes. "But I’m not here to talk about her well-being. I’m here to end the

  • Heiress Return: Revenge Of The Crippled Ex-Wife   CHAPTER 157.

    Julian’s POV.The moment I stepped off the plane, I knew something was wrong. I have been away on a business trip for a few days now.My phone had been blowing up since the night before—missed calls from my assistant, frantic messages from colleagues, and a short, emotionless reply from Clarence that simply said, “We’ll talk when you’re home.” That wasn’t like her. She always said too much, even when she was mad. Especially when she was hurting.I didn’t even wait for my driver. I got into the first car I could find and told them to take me straight home. I had seen the news and how Kristina, Clarence, and I were trending. I knew it had to be the work of Kristina after Clarence had ignored all the emails she had been sending trying to stir up something between us. I had told Clarence not to do anything about the emails, they were too small to hold Kristina accountable, she needed to do something big and then I would make sure she is arrested and she trusts me.Although I had even tol

  • Heiress Return: Revenge Of The Crippled Ex-Wife   CHAPTER 156.

    Kristina’s POV. I sat cross-legged on the carpeted floor of the new apartment Gina had secured for me, my back pressed against the edge of the bed. The light from my laptop cast a dull glow against the wall as I scrolled through old pictures. Most were useless—blurry shots from events, group photos, and work dinners. But there were a few of us and Julian back then before everything went downhill with Clarence’s return. I paused as I came across one where he had a smile on his face, and he was looking at me lovingly too. We had both gone to a public event and had to take photos just like every other couple that was invited. I knew he had only acted like that for the Camera. It wasn’t love in the photo, not really, but it could pass for it and this was what I wanted. It was enough to do what I had in mind. I used an app to nudge the lighting, adjusted the contrast, and then layered in a few blurred edges to make it feel more intimate. I added a timestamp. Then I found another ph

  • Heiress Return: Revenge Of The Crippled Ex-Wife   CHAPTER 155.

    Kristina’s POV. For the past few weeks, I have been changing locations so my parents won't know exactly where I was staying to avoid what happened last time and Gina had been very supportive, helping me out. Today I was lodged in a hotel. I sat at the desk, the only one in the room, with the curtains drawn and the lamp on. My phone buzzed quietly against the tabletop. Unknown number. No name. Just a single message. “He’s moving. Watch your steps.” That was it. No punctuation, no context. But I knew who he was. It was certainly Julian. I stared at the screen, unmoving, even though my pulse had started to run faster. My fingers stayed perfectly still on the phone, even as my mind ran through every possibility. He knew. Or he suspected. Either way, something had shifted. I didn’t let the panic show. Panic was a luxury for people who had a way out. I had made sure of that when I slipped out of that house, when I left the clinic and didn’t look back. When I chose this path. He was

  • Heiress Return: Revenge Of The Crippled Ex-Wife   CHAPTER 154.

    Clarence’s POVThe morning air felt light, like it hadn’t yet made up its mind whether to scorch or stay mild. I sat quietly in the backseat of the car as we pulled away from the house, watching the city wake up. It was supposed to be a routine meeting—a follow-up with a group of investors who wanted to expand into the wellness sector. I had done hundreds of meetings like this. But today, I couldn’t shake the tight feeling in my chest.I sent Julian a quick message as we pulled up to the expressway.“Heading to the meeting now. Will update in 10.”I could almost hear his voice in my head telling me to be careful. I wasn’t used to being checked on this much, but I understood why. After the accident… after Damon… things hadn’t felt right. And Julian wasn’t the type to let his guard down once it was up.The car ride was uneventful at first. We passed the usual places—old banks, street vendors already setting up, that bakery I kept meaning to stop by. But then, something caught my eye in

  • Heiress Return: Revenge Of The Crippled Ex-Wife   CHAPTER 153.

    Julian’s POV.I was at the hospital by 8 a.m., but my mind hadn’t arrived with me.I moved through the motions—greeting the nurses, checking charts, and discussing cases but the weight of Damon’s business card burned like a hidden coal in my pocket. That sleek black design. His name was printed in silver like it meant something.Why did she still have it?I tried to brush it off. Tried to remind myself that Damon had no place in her life anymore but silence had its language. The surgery I was scheduled for wasn’t complicated—a routine appendix removal. I scrubbed in and focused on the procedure like I always did. But halfway through, I realized I was reaching for the wrong instrument.My assistant corrected me gently, her voice low but firm: “Scalpel, Doctor.”I stared down, my jaw tight, and nodded. I finished the surgery without another mistake, but I knew I had been off. I wasn’t fully present and that wasn’t just dangerous, it was unacceptable.Afterwards, I walked straight into

  • Heiress Return: Revenge Of The Crippled Ex-Wife   CHAPTER 152

    Clarence’s POV. I didn’t expect Damon to show up again. Not after the way I shut him down at the hospital. But the man had always been persistent. He had this way of pressing until you gave in—not always through force, sometimes just by lingering long enough until you were too tired to resist. That part of him hadn’t changed. I sat by the window in my room, staring out at the empty street below. The afternoon sun washed the buildings in a soft haze, but I felt no comfort in it. Everything still felt off. Damon’s sudden reappearance in my life, his soft-spoken apologies, and now this… plea to help him “start over.” I wasn’t naive. He never did anything without an agenda. Still, part of me felt unsettled—like there was something I wasn’t seeing clearly. Julian called just as I was going through some documents. Hearing his voice made my chest loosen a bit. He always had that effect. Steady, reassuring. I put my pen down and leaned back on the couch. “How are you feeling today?”
