LOGINFor three years, Marie Rose loved Julien Terry with all her heart. She was convinced they would get married and build a happy life together. But everything falls apart the day she catches him in the arms of her best friend. Without the slightest remorse, Julien humiliates her and ends their relationship as if those three years had never meant anything. Heartbroken, Marie Rose decides to move on. She accepts a new job that will completely change the course of her life. Her new boss is none other than Clark Terry, a powerful and respected billionaire, as attractive as he is untouchable. What she discovers too late is that Clark is Julien’s uncle. As time passes, Marie Rose begins to discover the man hidden behind his cold, unreadable exterior. Beneath that icy façade is a loyal, protective man carrying deep wounds of his own. Little by little, a genuine attraction grows between them, eventually turning into a love neither of them can ignore. But falling for her ex’s uncle will come with consequences. Consumed by jealousy, Julien refuses to accept that the woman he lost is rebuilding her life beside his own uncle. Manipulation, betrayal, family secrets, and an insatiable thirst for revenge soon drag the Terry family into a war where everyone has something to lose. When the person who broke your heart discovers that someone else is healing the wounds they left behind… how far will they go to reclaim what they always believed belonged to them? And what if Marie Rose’s true destiny was never Julien… but Clark?
View MoreA heavy silence fell over the room.Clark exchanged a brief glance with Daniel before turning to the nurse.“Where is Matthew?”“In the emergency department,” he replied. “The doctors are doing everything they can to stabilize him.”Clark didn't waste a second.“Let's go.”He immediately turned to the two security guards standing watch at the door.“No one leaves this room. Protect André at all costs.”“Yes, sir.”Before leaving, I looked at André one last time.Despite the exhaustion written all over his face, he still found the strength to give me a slight nod. It was a small gesture, but it managed to reassure me.I gave him a faint smile before following Clark, Daniel, and the nurse down the corridor.---A few minutes later, we arrived at the emergency department.Matthew Collins was lying on a hospital bed.His face bore the marks of the accident. Several injuries covered his skin, and a white bandage was wrapped around his forehead. The machines surrounding him filled the silen
Clark stood motionless, his eyes fixed on his phone screen.He didn't say a word.I watched as his fingers slowly tightened around the device, gripping it so hard that his knuckles turned white.A deep sense of unease began to creep over me.“Clark... what's wrong?”He didn't answer.He continued staring at the photograph as though he refused to believe what he was seeing.Daniel stepped closer.The moment he saw the image, his expression changed completely.The photograph had been taken during a meeting at Terry Group.Clark was standing there, relaxed and smiling alongside several members of his team.But one face stood out from all the others.Daniel let out a whisper.“No...”I gently took the phone from Clark's hands.My eyes scanned the photograph.Then I understood.The man standing right beside Clark...It was Matthew Collins.Terry Group's chief financial officer.Always impeccably dressed.Always calm.Always present at the meetings where the company's most important decisio
An eerie chill seemed to sweep through the room.Nobody said a word.Clark kept his eyes fixed on the piece of paper. He remained motionless. Only his fingers, tightly clenched around the sheet, betrayed the tension building inside him.I felt my uneasiness grow.“Clark... what's wrong?”He finally raised his eyes to mine.His face was paler than usual.“I'm not the only one on this list...”Daniel immediately stepped closer.Without a word, Clark handed him the document.Daniel began reading it slowly. The farther he got, the more his eyebrows furrowed.Every name had been handwritten.Clark Terry.Marie Rose.Ethan Lawson.And many others.So many others.Some had been crossed out with a large red X.I swallowed with difficulty.“What does this mean?”André took a labored breath before answering.His voice was so weak that I practically had to lean forward to hear him.“This list...”He paused to catch his breath.“It's a list of the heirs.”I stared at him, confused.“The heirs of
André's face turned deathly pale.Lying on the hospital bed, he clutched the sheets between his fingers. His hands were trembling so badly that the fabric had become a wrinkled mess.Clark took a step toward him.“André... what are you talking about?”André kept his eyes closed for a few seconds. He seemed to be weighing every word, as though speaking required the last bit of strength he had left.Finally, he whispered, “The Crown... isn't a piece of jewelry.”Daniel frowned.“Then what is it?”André slowly turned his head toward me.The sadness in his eyes made my heart ache. They were filled with overwhelming exhaustion... and an even deeper pain.“It's the codename for a file.”The silence that followed seemed to swallow the entire room.I blinked, struggling to understand.“A file?”He gave a weak nod.“It contains all the evidence... against those who have been manipulating our families for years.”Clark remained completely still.“Where is it?”A bitter smile touched André's lip
