2025-04-07 12:03:03Caroline’s Point of View
The tension in the principal’s office is suffocating. It wraps around me like an iron chain, weighing heavier with every second that ticks by. The moment Knoxx steps inside, everything changes.
Dolly’s tears dry up instantly. Evelyn, who had been sniffling dramatically in her mother’s arms, suddenly clings to Knoxx’s leg like she’s been terrified this whole time. The teacher looks relieved, as if his presence somehow solves everything.
But it’s his eyes that make my stomach churn.
Knoxx’s gaze doesn’t land on me first. No, his attention is locked on something else—Adrian’s hand, which is still wrapped firmly around my wrist.
His expression doesn’t shift immediately, but I see the flicker of something dangerous beneath the surface. His jaw tightens, his fingers twitch, and then, slowly, his gaze drags upward until he meets my eyes.

Caroline’s Point of ViewThe envelope is plain.No logo. No return address. No stamp, even.Just my name, written in ink that's slightly smudged at the corners like it had been held too tightly for too long. Just five letters—but somehow they feel heavier than anything I’ve carried all week.Caroline.And underneath it, in handwriting I could recognize even in the dark:Knoxx Wayne.My heart doesn’t lurch. It doesn’t pound or skip or swell. But it pauses.Not out of fear.Not out of longing.Out of knowing.Because this... this was always coming.I stare at it longer than I should. Long enough for the afternoon sun to move across the counter. Long enough for the silence in the house to settle in my bones.

Caroline’s Point of ViewThe late afternoon sunlight spills through the back window, slanting in golden lines across the hardwood floor of the shop’s backroom. It’s warm—the kind of warmth that settles in quietly, wrapping around everything without asking permission.Liam is on the floor, lying on his stomach with his little legs bent at the knees, feet kicking idly in the air. He’s coloring. Completely lost in it. His tongue pokes out just slightly from the corner of his mouth the way it always does when he’s focused. There's a little crease between his eyebrows—another familiar expression I’ve memorized without meaning to.He doesn’t notice me standing in the doorway.He hums softly. A quiet, absent sound, like he’s keeping himself company in his head.And for a few seconds, I don’t say anything.

Caroline’s Point of ViewThe lights are bright.Brighter than I expected.The small auditorium is packed, and the subtle buzz of chatter and shuffling heels fills the room as people settle into their seats. My name flashes across the screen behind me: Caroline Hill, Founder of Aline Jewerly.I take a deep breath behind the curtain.It’s not fear I feel. Not exactly. It’s weight.The weight of the journey it took to get here.The years I swallowed my voice. The months I spent trying to rebuild something from the ashes of everything that was taken from me. The nights I lay awake wondering if I was being stupid to keep going.Now I’m here. In my homeland. In front of people who have followed my story—from whispers and headlines to quiet respect. And I’m not just here as someone’s
Secret Billionaire Divorcee Chapter 219
Penelope’s Point of ViewI’m staring at my untouched cup of tea.The warmth has faded, just like my ability to pretend that everything is fine.Across from me, Caroline leans against the display counter, arms crossed gently over her chest. The jewelry shop is quiet this afternoon—just the soft hum of the ceiling fan and the faint clink of metal as she sorts a few tiny charms on a tray.She glances at me, then at the cold tea I haven’t touched.“You okay?” she asks finally, not pushing, but not pretending she doesn’t notice.I hesitate, then shake my head. “I don’t know.”She walks over and pulls out the stool beside mine, sitting down like she’s settling in for something real.“I’ve been thinking about Lorenzo,” I say quietly, my finge

Caroline’s Point of ViewThe door closes behind us with a soft click.Adrian sets his keys on the counter and gives me a tired smile. “Home sweet home.”I don’t smile back. I just stare at the blood staining the sleeve of his shirt.He notices. “It’s not as bad as it looks.”I cross my arms tightly. “You said that the last time.”He shrugs. “And I was right then, too.”My jaw tightens. “Let me see it.”He sighs but doesn’t argue. He walks toward the bathroom and I follow, watching every step he takes. His limp is faint but there. My chest aches.Inside, he peels off his shirt slowly. I catch my breath.The burn on his arm is deeper than he made it sound. The bruise blooming across his ribs is c
Secret Billionaire Divorcee Chapter 217
Knoxx’s Point of ViewThe smoke clings to everything—my jacket, my throat, the inside of my damn lungs.The second we’re out, the air feels thin, too light to hold the weight pressing against my ribs. Fire crews are yelling. Someone pulls Adrian aside to check him for burns, but he pushes past them, scanning the area like a madman.And then I hear her.“Adrian!”Her voice cuts through everything.Caroline.She runs toward him, eyes wide, hands trembling. She doesn’t even look at me.It’s like I’m not here.“Caroline,” Adrian breathes, and then she’s in his arms.She grabs the front of his soot-covered shirt and buries her face against his chest. No hesitation. No second thought. Just straight to him.&nbs
