39. A Mother's Threat.

The drive to St Greg Medicals was silent.

Not peaceful silence.

The kind that pressed heavily against the windows, thick with things unsaid.

Lucien's hand rested on his thigh, fingers steady, posture composed. Only the tightness in his jaw betrayed the storm moving beneath that calm surface.

The sting on his cheek had faded already.

That wasn't what lingered.

His mind replayed the conference hall in ruthless clarity.

Sasha's voice.

The murmurs.

The slap.

And then—

  • Her Exodus, His Regret.    110. A Little Closer....

    110. A Little Closer....Sasha couldn't tell how long she had stayed in that same position after calling Liam. At some point, she had stopped crying and only whimpered. And then, at some point, she had stopped crying entirely.The conference room was now enveloped in silence, the kind that carried a lot of heavy things in it. Heavy things that didn't need to be pointed out. They were just there. You just had to know it.However, the next moment, the door opened and someone walked in.Sasha didn't turn her head to look at the person. She already knew.Liam.She kept her face straight, looking at something insignificant at the far end of the desk.She didn't want to look at him. Because, for some reason, she was afraid that if she turned to look, she might end up crying again.She didn't want to.“Sasha,” Liam called her name.Sasha's fists bunched the dress on her lap. Her lashes trembled. She tried to find the words to say something to him, but it seemed as though her voice had disapp

  • Her Exodus, His Regret.    Chapter 109: They All Left…

    Chapter 109: They All Left…DAH GlobalGaux walked in a few minutes later and found Dahlia seated at her desk, looking out over the city through the glass wall of her office.She heaved a small sigh and approached the desk."Miss Winters," she called.Dahlia swirled around in her chair to face her, a soft smile resting on her lips."Is everything ready for the meeting?""Yes, Miss.""Good. Have our PR team release a statement. Use the right headlines. Nothing too lengthy, just enough to let Vale Enterprises know that the game is on.""Okay, Miss."Gaux began scribbling something on the notepad in her hand."Also, make sure we publish the names of those board members who left the company."Gaux arched a brow. "But, Miss Winters, I thought we already did that.""Of course we did, but that was for DAH Global and the Winters company. I'm talking globally. Publish their names alongside the reasons for their departure and the allegations against them. Use a strong headline."Gaux paused, he

    108. The Last Shred of Dignity…Liam sat in his car for a while after leaving Dahlia's office. His head rested against the headrest, one hand placed quietly on the steering wheel.He had walked into her office that morning knowing fully well that it was a futile effort, but he had still gone in with that small strand of hope within him.But she had said no.In the most polite yet cruelest way possible.She had served him coffee. Sweet coffee.For a moment, his mind drifted to that morning in the hospital. He had brought two cups of her favourite coffee with him. He remembered the look on her face when he told her what he had brought.But she hadn't drunk it.He heaved a deep sigh and reached for the ignition. He turned the key, and the car purred to life.It didn't matter if Dahlia wanted to do whatever she wanted. He wouldn't stop her. But Sasha wouldn't be going to prison either.If worse came to worst…~~~Sasha's fingers tightened around the folder in her hand as she stared at the

  • Her Exodus, His Regret.    107. A Cup Of Memories

    107. A Cup Of MemoriesLiam arrived at DAH Global by eight o'clock the next morning. He was dressed in dark green sweatpants and a matching sweatshirt, paired with sneakers, looking as laid-back as ever. However, the tension around his eyes showed how much the situation was getting to him, even if he tried to deny it.He arrived in front of the executive office and took a seat on the lobby chair outside. He threw his head back against the wall and slowly shut his eyes.His mind drifted quietly to his conversation with Lucien the previous night.Lucien had said something. That he was protecting Sasha.Was he doing that? Really?His hands tightened on his lap at the thought.He just didn't want her to end up in prison. No matter what happened, it didn't matter if Vale Enterprises took the hit. But Sasha shouldn't end up behind bars.He knew what she had done. He knew the damage she had caused, and he wasn't going to pretend otherwise. She had made her choices, and whatever came next was

  • Her Exodus, His Regret.    106. A Drink Between Brothers

    106. A Drink Between BrothersAt the Mansion of DahliasLucien stared at the screen of his phone, but it had already gone dark a few seconds ago. His brows remained knitted in a frown as he stood there, lost in thought.A pair of arms slowly wrapped around his waist, followed by the gentle weight of Dahlia's head against his back.“You should go,” Dahlia said softly.“I should?”“Of course.” She paused briefly before continuing. “He will probably ask you to be lenient on Vale Enterprises.”Lucien heaved a deep sigh and turned to face her, taking both her hands in his. “What do you think?”Dahlia only smiled and leaned closer, her face inches away from his. “I trust your judgment, Mr. Voss.”“Mr. Voss?”Dahlia chuckled. “I remember that's your name.”Lucien smiled. “You like playing around.”“Of course,” Dahlia said, her voice a little sultry. “If not, I wouldn't have been able to fool Sasha.”“Seriously,” Lucien said. “Even I was almost fooled.”“Kimberly really hates you now,” she sa

  • Her Exodus, His Regret.    105. The Web We Wove...

    105. The Web We Wove...Sasha sat in her seat at the restaurant for a long time after Dahlia left. She could still hear the calm click of her heels against the tiled floor. The straightness of her back. The quiet confidence that rested on her shoulders as though nothing in the world could shake her.Her hands tightened around the edge of the table.Dahlia had always been like this. She was the perfect definition of actions speak louder than words.She never said much, but when she acted, it was precise and final. She didn't need to raise her voice or make a show of her intentions. She simply did what she had to do and left everyone else to deal with the consequences.Sasha's jaw clenched hard.Then she let out a chuckle, the kind that sounded like someone who had reached a dead end and was deciding whether to turn back or ram into the wall.She heaved a deep sigh, picked up her glass of wine, and gulped down what remained of its contents. After setting the glass down, she stood, brush
