“Devandra Montgomery, where are you?” That deep, authoritative voice cut through Devandra the moment he put the phone to his ear.

Devandra stood frozen in his study. The crystal glass in his hand trembled. “Grandma…” he murmured, trying to sound casual. “I’m… finishing up at the office.”

“I don’t care about your office business,” his grandmother snapped quickly. “You must come home. Your grandfather wants to see you. And I want something more important — I want you to bring Vania with you.”

Devandra fell silent. His eyes stared blankly at the glass wall. Those words hit his chest harder than all the recent media attacks.

“Grandma…” his voice dropped, as if stalling for time. “That… maybe isn’t the right time.”

Before he could continue, his grandmother’s voice cut in again. “It’s time, Devandra! Do you think I don’t know how old you are? A marriage without children is foolish. I want grandchildren. I want to see the next Montgomery generation before I die.”

Devandra closed his eyes. Bl

    That night, after the suffocating family dinner, Devandra retreated into his study. The desk lamp cast a harsh glow across his tense face. The laptop screen in front of him blinked with a flood of unread emails, yet his mind was elsewhere. His grandmother’s words echoed relentlessly:“Don’t lie to me, Devandra. I know when you’re pretending.”He pressed his temples, exhaling heavily. “Damn it,” he muttered. “If I don’t move fast, they’ll destroy me themselves.”His phone buzzed. The name on the screen curled his lips into a faint smile: Liora.He answered. “Hello.”Her sultry voice, both playful and concerned, flowed through the line. “Dev, you sound tense. What have they done to you this time?”“What else? They want an heir. They want certainty. And they—” He paused, glancing around the study as if someone might overhear, “—they’ve started hinting about inheritance. Which means my time is running short.”Liora chuckled softly. “Then why not use me? Haven’t I always been your emergenc

    “Devandra, sit down. Don’t just stand there like a stranger in your own house.”Grandfather Montgomery’s deep voice resonated through the grand dining hall, illuminated by a glittering crystal chandelier.Devandra pulled out a chair slowly, forcing a polite smile. “Yes, Grandfather.”Around the long dining table, every member of the Montgomery family was already seated. The table was adorned with lavish dishes, but the atmosphere carried a weight that was heavier than the silverware. At the far end, Grandmother Montgomery sat, her gaze sharp yet dignified.“It’s been far too long since we’ve all shared a meal together,” she said calmly, setting down her soup spoon. “It’s a shame Vania isn’t here.”Devandra stiffened, lowering his head slightly. “Vania… she’s busy, Grandmother.”“Busy?” The old woman sighed softly. “Busy with what? Isn’t a wife supposed to accompany her husband—especially at family gatherings like this?”Grand

    “Vania, come. I want to see you. Don’t bring anyone. Just think of it as an invitation from a grandmother to her granddaughter-in-law.”The voice on the other end of the line was gentle yet filled with authority.Vania fell silent for a long time. Her hands tightened into fists on her lap, her voice trembling.“Grandmother… I…” she swallowed hard, barely able to continue. “I don’t know if that would be appropriate. My relationship with Devandra… is no longer—”“Vania.” Grandmother Montgomery cut her off, her tone firm yet warm. “You are still my granddaughter-in-law. That doesn’t change just because of circumstances. You know I love you.”Silence. Vania’s breath caught in her throat. She closed her eyes, her chest rising and falling with the weight of mixed emotions.“All right, Grandma…” she whispered softly. “I’ll come.”---That afternoon, Vania’s car stopped at the grand gates of the Montgomery estate. The black iron

    “No! I said that data must be ready today!” Devandra’s voice thundered through the meeting room. His hand slammed onto the wooden table, sending papers scattering.His staff exchanged pale looks; no one dared speak.“Sir…” one of them tried to say, “the media team needs extra time to fix—”“Extra time?” Devandra barked. His eyes flashed. “Do you think the world will give me extra time? Do you think my grandmother will wait patiently?!”Silence pressed down. Only Devandra’s heavy breathing was audible.Martin, his closest assistant, found the courage to speak. “Sir, maybe… this isn’t just about the data. Since Mrs. Montgomery’s call, you’ve seemed—”“Shut up, Martin!” Devandra cut him off. He stood up, his chair clattering back. “Do you think I need a cheap psychologist to read my feelings?”Martin lowered his head. “No, Sir.”Devandra exhaled roughly, then walked to the large window. He pressed his fingers against his temples as if to hold back something about to explode in his head.

    “Liora.”Devandra’s voice was heavy, cold, slicing through the private meeting room on the top floor of the luxury hotel.Liora turned slowly, her body tensing. She had known this meeting would come sooner or later.“What is it?” she asked, forcing her voice to stay calm.Devandra stepped closer, dressed in a flawless black suit. His smile was thin, but his eyes stalked her like a predator. “I just want to make sure of something. Your loyalty.”Liora clenched her teeth. “Loyalty? I’ve done everything you asked. I went on media appearances, answered those ridiculous questions, let people speculate about me and Arga. What more do you want?”Devandra slammed his hand on the glass table between them. Bang! The sound made Liora flinch.“Loyalty isn’t just about what you do, Liora.” He leaned forward, eyes sharp. “It’s about what you think. And I can see it in your eyes… you’re starting to doubt.”Liora held her breath. “You’re too paranoid.”Devandra smirked, ice in his expression. “Parano
