SWEET REVENGE (He Betrayed Me, Now He Must Pay) 125
CHAPTER 125Linwoo’s POVMorning came quietly, like it didn’t want to interrupt anything.No alarms. No sudden noise. Just a slow spill of light slipping through the curtains, soft and warm, stretching across the room until it found us. It took its time, settling over the sheets, over the stillness, over him.For a few seconds, I didn’t move.Didn’t open my eyes fully.I stayed there in that in-between space, half-asleep but aware enough to feel the warmth beside me, to hear the faint, steady rhythm of breathing that didn’t belong to me. It was calm. Grounding in a way I didn’t question—I just let it sit.Then it clicked.Memory.Last night.A slow, lazy smile pulled at my lips before I even fully woke up.When I finally opened my eyes, I didn’t look around the room. I didn’t check the time. I didn’t think about anything waiting outside this space.I looked at him.Esteban was still asleep, lying on his back, one arm slightly bent, the other resting near me like even in sleep, he hadn

CHAPTER 124Esteban’s POVBy the time we reached my room, the quiet from the hallway followed us in, but it felt different here, contained, deliberate, untouched by the tension still threading through everything outside. I closed the door behind us more slowly than usual, the soft click echoing just enough to mark the separation. Whatever was waiting on the other side could stay there for a while. Strategy, pressure, expectation, all of it paused at the threshold, even if only temporarily.Linwoo didn’t move far from where he stood. He never did. He stayed just inside the space, leaning slightly back, his presence calm in a way that didn’t demand attention but held it anyway. His eyes were already on me, steady, observant, reading more than I said.“You’re still thinking about it,” he said quietly.It wasn’t a question. It never was with him.I exhaled through my nose, loosening my sleeves with a slow, measured motion, feeling the tension I’d been carrying settle more noticeably now t

CHAPTER 123Esteban’s POVThe door clicked shut behind me with the same quiet precision I always used, sealing off the room and everything inside it, like it was just another task completed. My expression didn’t change as I stepped into the hallway, posture straight, movements controlled, the familiar rhythm of composure settling back into place without effort.Inside, everything was strategy.Outside, it was supposed to be the same.But the second I turned the corner, that sharp, calculated stillness eased, just slightly.Linwoo was leaning against the wall a few steps down, exactly where I knew he’d be.He wasn’t doing anything in particular, just scrolling lazily through his phone, one shoulder pressed back, completely unbothered by the tension that always seemed to follow the rest of us around. But the moment he sensed me, he looked up.And just like that, everything else faded into the background.“There you are,” he said, slipping his phone into his pocket, his voice light but s

CHAPTER 122Florida’s POVBy the time I got home, the performance had already worn off completely.There was no trace of the trembling voice, no softness left in my posture, no hint of the fragile version of me the cameras had just captured. That version stayed exactly where it belonged, outside, on screens, in headlines, in people’s minds.In here?I was back in control.The door shut behind me with a quiet click, and for a second, I just stood there, letting the silence settle around me. It felt different from earlier, less chaotic, more contained. Like everything had narrowed into something sharper.Focused.“Did they believe it?”Derrick’s voice came from across the room before I even had a chance to move further inside.I looked up.He was leaning back slightly, watching me, his expression unreadable at first but there was something underneath it. Anticipation. Calculation.Waiting.I let the moment stretch just a second longer before answering, setting my bag down slowly like I

Chapter 121Florida’s POVThe cameras didn’t stop rolling until I decided they should, and that was the part people always misunderstood. They thought moments like that spiraled out of control, that emotions took over and everything just… slipped. But control didn’t disappear. It just changed form. Even standing there, with my voice deliberately uneven and my hands trembling just enough to be noticed, I was still aware of every second, every angle, every pair of eyes locked onto me. I knew exactly when to pause, when to look down, when to let my voice break just slightly so it sounded real but not rehearsed.I didn’t rush away when it was over either. That would’ve ruined it. Instead, I let the silence stretch, let the reporters lower their microphones slowly, let the weight of what I had just “confessed” settle into the air. I made sure they saw me hesitate before walking off, like I was carrying something too heavy to hold properly. That part mattered just as much as the speech itse

CHAPTER 120Clara’s POV I didn’t go to sleep.I told myself I would, told myself I needed to but the moment I stepped into my room, the quiet wrapped around me in a way that felt too loud to ignore. So I turned the television on instead.That was my first mistake.Or maybe it wasn’t a mistake at all.Maybe it was exactly what I wanted.The screen flickered to life, filling the room with a soft glow, and it didn’t take more than a second for me to see it, my name at the bottom of the screen, Florida’s above it, the headline already framing everything before a single word was spoken.“…today’s courtroom developments have raised serious concerns regarding the credibility of key individuals involved in the case—”I sat slowly on the edge of the bed, the remote loose in my hand, my attention locked on the screen.They were dissecting it.Every second.Every word.Every reaction.Clips played in short, controlled bursts, Florida’s voice, sharp and unfiltered, her expression tense, her comp

CHAPTER 75Derrick’s POVI continued work as normal, or at least what passed for normal in my life.Meetings, calls, deals, one after another, all blending into the same exhausting routine. The weight of the family business sat heavily on my shoulders, and my father made sure I felt every ounce of

CHAPTER 74Spencer’s POVThe room felt impossibly quiet after I stepped back, letting the space between us settle like a weight. My hands still tingled from touching her, the warmth of her body lingering even when she was a few feet away.I watched her—Clara—breathing slightly faster, cheeks flushe

CHAPTER 73Clara’s POVFor a moment after Spencer stepped back, neither of us moved.The distance he had created between us felt deliberate, like a line he was drawing in the room. His expression had gone calm again, but there was something beneath it now, something tighter than before.“Don’t do t

CHAPTER 71Clara's POV“Hey… can I ask you one more question, Clara?” he said.His voice carried a hint of hesitation.“Actually… It’s more of an observation.I raised an eyebrow at that, curiosity immediately sparking, but I nodded anyway.“Go ahead.”Lin Woo studied my face for a moment like he w
