LOGINAfter everything that had happened, we finally sat together as one happy family. I didn't tell anyone about my engagement yet, but I informed them that I was ready to confront Alan. However, I wanted to do it publicly at the company. I wanted everyone present—Alan, Samantha, their families, and every person who had been aware of Samantha's scheme. Michael immediately came up with an idea. "There is a way to get Samantha to come," he said. "I'll tell her that I've signed the contract and decided not to partner with Alan anymore. Then I'll ask her to come and collect it herself. I know she'll come because she desperately wants that contract back." Everyone agreed that it was a brilliant plan. I looked at Michael and asked, "I hope you know why she wanted the contract back so badly?" "Yes," he replied. "Because I refused to sign it." I shook my head. "No. That's not the real reason. Have you actually read the contents of the contract?" Michael frowned. "No, I never had the ch
Michael began pacing the room. My confession had clearly shaken him. At one point, he seemed unable to catch his breath. He ran a hand through his hair, then covered his mouth as he struggled to process everything. Honestly, if I were in his position, I would probably react the same way. "Michael, please listen," I said softly, trying to calm him. "I can explain—" Before I could continue, he silenced me by raising a finger to his lips. He ran his hand through his hair again, placed both hands on his waist, and asked, "So you're really a tycoon's daughter? And they're actually your siblings? The tycoon's biological children?" He pointed at Jasmine and Kevin. "Yes," I answered. "Fuck that," Michael muttered. "Michael," I called gently. "Say it," he demanded sadly. "Say you're a tycoon's daughter. I want to hear you say it." I glanced around at everyone before replying, "I'm a tycoon's daughter." Michael let out a humorless chuckle. "You actually said it so boldly..."
Michael's happiness was impossible to miss. His eyes sparkled with excitement, and the smile on his face seemed brighter than ever. Seeing him so happy filled my heart with warmth because I knew I was the reason behind that happiness. There was something incredibly satisfying about knowing that the man I loved was genuinely happy because of me.He reached for a bottle of wine and poured a glass for both of us. We lifted our glasses in celebration and clinked them together before taking a sip. The atmosphere around us was perfect. Soft music filled the air as the instrumentalists continued playing beautiful melodies, creating a romantic ambiance that made the evening feel magical.Michael held out his hand to me, and I gladly accepted it. Together, we danced slowly in the garden, enjoying the moment. While we danced, he began talking excitedly about our future."I promise you," he said confidently, "I'm going to give you the most unforgettable wedding ever. It will be the wedding of yo
After the group call with my parents, the tycoons, and my siblings finally ended, I thought the emotional day was over. I was wrong. A few minutes later, my phone rang. It was Michael. His voice sounded unusually cheerful. “Audrey, can you do something for me?” “What is it?” I asked. “Come down to the garden. I have a surprise waiting for you.” A smile appeared on my face immediately. Michael always knew how to brighten my day. Curious about what he had planned, I left my room and headed downstairs. The moment I stepped into the garden, I noticed something was different. This wasn't the garden I had seen every day. The entire place looked magical. Beautiful lights were hanging from the trees, flowers decorated every pathway, and elegant ribbons swayed gently in the evening breeze. Everything looked so romantic that I couldn't stop staring. My eyes landed on a beautifully arranged table covered with drinks and desserts. However, Michael was nowhere in sight. I frowned sli
A few hours later, I slowly drifted back to consciousness.At first, everything felt hazy. My eyelids were heavy, and my body still felt weak, but gradually I became aware of my surroundings. I blinked several times before finally opening my eyes completely.When I turned my head, I saw Michael, Jasmine, and Isabella.Jasmine and Isabella had fallen asleep beside my bed. Their heads rested against the mattress, exhaustion clearly written on their faces. It looked like neither of them had left my side for a long time.Michael, however, was still awake. He sat quietly beside me, watching over me with a look of concern and relief. Only then did I realize that I was no longer resting in his arms. At some point while I was asleep, he must have carefully laid me down on the bed so I could rest more comfortably.The moment he noticed my eyes were open, a bright smile spread across his face. "Hey, you," he said softly.A small smile appeared on my lips. "Hey, you," I replied.The relief on hi
Without wasting a second, after everyone stepped aside, Michael grabbed one of the cushions from the couch and carefully slid it beneath my head to keep me from hurting myself. Then he quickly loosened the scarf around my neck, trying to make it easier for me to breathe."Audrey... Audrey..." he called desperately, his voice trembling. "I'm here. I'm right here. Stay with me. Please stay with me."The seizure continued, and there was nothing he could do except watch helplessly.His hands shook uncontrollably as he knelt beside me. The confident, composed Michael everyone knew had completely disappeared. For the first time since I had met him, genuine fear was written all over his face. He looked terrified.Across the room, Jasmine and Isabella stood frozen in horror. Tears streamed down their faces as they watched what was happening. Neither of them knew what to do. They could only cling to themselves and cry.The maids were no better. They stood frozen in fear, tears streaming down t
