CHAPTER 109 - BEAT HIM TO DEATH

last update Last Updated: 2025-06-24 20:05:48

(Kai’s POV)

“This time I will win,” Adrian sneered, his voice echoing eerily off the cracked concrete walls. I was pinned face-down on the cold, abandoned warehouse floor, each breath a ragged gasp against the dust. The three hulking men Adrian had brought tightened their grip on my arms and legs like wild dogs around prey. My body tensed—but I refused to yield.

They started beating me. I fought back fiercely; my hands struck out, my legs kicked. I tried to twist out of their grip, but every blow I landed met with a far stronger punch to my ribs or thigh. My vision blurred quickly. Abruptly, Adrian fired his gun into the air—one deafening crack that silenced everything. My flesh rippled in shock. I looked up. He pointed the gun at me: cold, vicious.

“You wanted to fight, Kai?” Adrian’s tone was icy. “Fine. But if you don’t want Vivian to suffer… you’ll keep your mouth shut and do exactly what I say.” His words hit me like a crushing weight.

I didn’t flinch; I only managed a low chuckl

  • Owned By My Best Friend's Uncle   CHAPTER 114 - SHE'S GONE

    (Kai’s POV)“I’m going to get you some water,” she said, standing quickly. “I’ll be back.”Those were some of the last words I heard from Vivian—words I clung to, replayed, and tried to decode. She vanished after that, like smoke drifting through my fingers. She didn't visit me in the hospital the next day. She didn't return to the penthouse. Not a text, not a call. It was as if she had never existed.Now, it has been nearly a week. Not a whisper. Not a glimpse on my end of things. My phone sat silent. My doorbell was unmoved. I controlled the business, the bar, life, everything—but I could not control her absence.I sat at the bar late in the evening. The overhead lights were dim, and the usual hum of patrons felt distant. I nursed a whiskey that was more of a starch than relief. The seat across from me remained empty, like a void that demanded to be filled.Willem appeared a minute later, his gait unsteady in that way only someone close could appear after a few drinks. His expressio

  • Owned By My Best Friend's Uncle   CHAPTER 113 - THE GOOD PARTS

    (Vivian’s POV)The soft creak of the hospital door pulled me out of my thoughts.Summer was the first to step in, followed by Chloe and Willem. I quickly stood from the chair beside Kai’s bed and wiped away the last traces of tears on my cheeks. Summer's eyes met mine briefly, searching for answers in my expression, but she didn’t press.“You two done?” Summer teased with a raised brow, trying to lighten the mood.Kai smirked. “Depends on what you’re implying.”Chloe rolled her eyes, stepping closer to the bed. “Honestly, you’re not going to change, are you?”Willem let out a quiet chuckle and approached with his hands in his coat pockets. “Glad to see you’re alert enough to banter. Means I don’t have to worry too much.”Kai shrugged carefully, one hand resting over his abdomen. “Feels like hell, but I’m alive.”I sat quietly, watching the way they all surrounded Kai. A strange warmth settled in my chest—relief, gratitude, and something bittersweet.Willem cleared his throat and spoke

    (Vivian’s POV)“Vivian! He’s awake! Kai’s awake!”Summer’s voice trembled on the other end of the line, frantic and overjoyed. For a moment, I stood frozen in place, my breath caught halfway in my throat.“What?” My voice cracked. “Summer, are you sure?”“Yes! Just now. He opened his eyes and spoke. The nurse is checking on him—come quickly!”I turned to Willem, who was standing beside me with a paper bag of sandwiches in one hand.“He’s awake,” I said breathlessly. “Kai—he’s awake.”Willem’s eyes widened in disbelief for a second before softening with a smile. “Then what are we waiting for?” he said. “Let’s go.”We left the café immediately, abandoning the thought of lunch. The car ride felt like the longest ten minutes of my life. My hands wouldn’t stop shaking. I kept holding them tightly in my lap to keep them still, but my heart… it wouldn't stop thundering. Relief, gratitude, and overwhelming emotion bubbled inside me like a tidal wave I didn’t dare release—not yet.The moment w

  • Owned By My Best Friend's Uncle   CHAPTER 111 - A PROMISE

    (Vivian’s POV)I sat in the quiet lobby corridor, the soft glare of overhead lights washing the walls in pale hues. It was after 2 a.m. and the world had gone numb, except for the hum of passing nurses and the distant beeping of machines from beyond the door marked “Post‑Operative Recovery.” Kai lay in there, still unconscious. My eyes scanned the empty chairs, the nurse’s desk abandoned. I felt hollow, exhausted, guilty, and afraid.I was supposed to be resting, I thought. But how could I when he was fighting to live?Moments earlier, Willem had found me drifting between sleep and tears, head in my hands. He had gently insisted I go home, rest, and let someone else take over. But I refused. My guilt, my grief, wouldn’t let me leave.He appeared again, footsteps soft as confession. “Vivian,” he said, voice low, careful. He sat beside me. “You’ve been here all night. You need rest. We all do.”I blinked back tears. “I can’t… I can’t leave him.” My voice cracked. “He sacrificed everythi

    (Vivian’s POV)“Vivian…” Chloe’s voice trembled as she rushed toward me the moment I stepped into the ICU waiting room. Her arms wrapped around me tightly, and I clung to her, my own voice shook when I tried to speak.“Kai… He….” I couldn’t finish the sentence. My chest constricted, and hot tears threatened to spill.Outside the muted hum of machines and hushed footsteps, Summer’s voice drifted in.“How is Kai?” she asked, soft but urgent. I released Chloe and looked between the two of them—Chloe grasping my hand, Summer standing by my side like a shield.“He’s been in surgery for an hour,” Chloe replied, her voice breaking. “We just have to wait now. I hope he’s okay…” She squeezed my hand as if to transfer her strength to me.I closed my eyes and let out a ragged breath. “I’m so sorry, Chloe… I never wanted this. If anything happens to Kai because of me… I’ll never forgive myself.”Chloe shook her head fiercely, tears in her eyes. “Don’t blame yourself. Kai did this for you. He… he
