Regret Is Just The Beginning Chapter 86: Flames of Truth and Madness
Merlin’s chest rose and fell heavily as he struggled against the ropes binding his hands behind the chair. The veins in his neck stood out from the effort, sweat running down his face despite the cold air in the abandoned building. His fingers worked desperately, twisting, pulling, forcing against the tight knot that had dug painfully into his skin for too long.Then suddenly, there was a slight shift.The rope loosened.His eyes widened.Hope flashed through them like lightning.With one final pull, he slipped his hands free.“Diana,” Merlin called out immediately, his voice hoarse from the strain, breathing hard as he pushed himself up from the chair.Diana was still frozen where she stood, the detonator clutched tightly in her trembling hands. Her eyes remained fixed ahead, unfocused, her entire body locked in the terrifying weight of the decision she believed she had to make.“Diana!” Merlin called again, louder this time.Her fingers twitched slightly.She turned slowly toward
Regret Is Just The Beginning Chapter 85: A Choice from the Heart
Diana’s breath came fast and uneven as she took a step forward, her eyes fixed on Merlin tied helplessly to the chair in the middle of the abandoned building. The dim light flickered above them, casting unstable shadows that made the scene look even more terrifying than it already was.Her heart pounded violently against her chest.There was a bomb strapped tightly around Merlin’s torso.Wires ran across it in tangled loops, blinking lights flashing red at intervals that felt like a countdown to something irreversible. Even without hearing it clearly, she could sense the ticking, steady, cold, merciless.“Merlin…” she called again, her voice softer now, breaking under the weight of fear and desperation.She began to move toward him.Each step felt heavier than the last, like the ground itself was trying to hold her back. Her body trembled, but she didn’t stop. Her mind had already made one decision, she wasn’t leaving him there.But Merlin shook his head immediately.His eyes widen
Regret Is Just The Beginning Chapter 84: The Trap in Disguise
Diana approached the door of the small apartment slowly, her steps growing heavier with every inch she covered. The building looked old, almost forgotten, with faded paint peeling off the walls and a narrow corridor that smelled faintly of dust and damp wood. The silence around the place felt unsettling, not peaceful, just empty in a way that made her instincts restless.Before she could knock, the door opened.Edith stepped out hurriedly, her hands trembling the moment she saw Diana standing there. Her eyes looked swollen, like she had been crying for a long time, and her lips shook slightly as she reached out and grabbed Diana’s hand.“Diana,” she said, her voice breaking as she held her tightly, almost desperately. “You’re here. Hurry. I need you, please. He slipped and broke his right leg and arm. He won’t go to the hospital. He keeps saying he’d rather die than go there.”The words came out heavy, almost choking her. Tears gathered at the corner of her eyes again as she tried
Regret Is Just The Beginning Chapter 83: The Chase and the Trap
Moments later, that same night, the quiet calm they had stolen did not last.Merlin’s car tore through the empty road at a dangerous speed, the engine roaring like a beast unleashed. The tires screeched sharply against the asphalt as he made a sharp turn, the sound cutting through the silence of the night like a warning. Streetlights flashed past them in blurs of yellow and white, their glow stretching and disappearing almost instantly as the vehicle sped forward.Behind them, two black SUVs followed relentlessly.Their headlights burned brightly in the darkness, closing the distance with frightening determination.Diana turned slightly in her seat, her fingers gripping the edge of the door as she glanced into the side mirror. Her heart tightened instantly at what she saw.“They’re still there,” she said, her voice quick and tense, her eyes fixed on the reflection. “Merlin, they’re on our heels.”Merlin didn’t turn to look. His gaze remained locked on the road ahead, sharp and calc

She slowly removed her hand from his grip, her fingers slipping out of his hold with quiet finality, as though she was drawing a line he could no longer cross. “Henry, I’ve never forgotten our years together even though those moments were rather forced,” she said, her voice calm but heavy with meaning. Her eyes stayed on him, not avoiding, not trembling, just steady in a way that made her words sink deeper. “But what’s past is past. We can’t go back, and I’ve already—”“Stop.” He cut her off sharply, his voice low but firm, almost like he was afraid of what she would say next if she continued. He reached for her hand again, this time faster, holding it as though it was the only thing keeping him grounded. “Please—”“Sir,” Martins’ voice broke into the moment as he rushed in, urgency written all over his face. He didn’t wait for permission before stepping closer, his eyes flickering briefly toward Diana before returning to Henry. “Company trouble.” He leaned in and whispered someth
Regret Is Just The Beginning Chapter 81: Wounded Memories
“Diana,” he said, moving closer, his voice softer now, almost pleading, as though gentleness could undo years of damage. “I know you still love me. Come with me.” Without waiting for her response, he took her hand firmly and began to lead her away against her will. Diana resisted at first, her steps dragging slightly against the polished floor, her brows drawn together in quiet anger. But Henry didn't slow down. His fingers wrapped around hers like a chain, and though she could pull away if she truly fought him, something in her held back, not submission, but exhaustion. Shortly after, they arrived at his mansion. The large iron gates had already been opened before the car even came to a full stop, as though the entire house had been waiting for this moment. The guards, two tall men dressed in black suits with blank expressions, stepped forward immediately and opened the doors for them with silent efficiency.The house stood tall and imposing, its bright lights casting long refl

"Mine as well," Rosa said again, her voice clipped and commanding, her chin raised imperiously as though she were addressing hired help instead of a guest at her family's table. "Don't dally. I'm waiting."Lauren's smile stiffened almost immediately. The warmth that had sat easily on her face momen

“She used to beg to pour us wine,” Mabel whispered to her mother as she leaned closer to Rosa, her voice low but sharp enough to carry venom. Her eyes never left Diana, who sat calmly with her glass in hand, her posture relaxed, her expression unreadable. “What is wrong with her?”“Who knows,” Ros

Diana stood still for a moment, her fingers tightening slowly around the strap of her purse as though she needed that small pressure to ground herself, to anchor herself to something solid. The long dining table stretched before her, polished and gleaming under the chandelier light. The air smell

Both Henry and Diana stared at each other for longer than was normal, the silence stretching between them like a thin wire pulled too tight, threatening to snap at any moment. No one at the table dared to breathe too loudly. The air itself felt fragile. Henry's face was stiff, his jaw clenched ha
