Elena’s POV

My heart seizes up with fright. But my body doesn’t react. It’s still floating from all the things that he just said.

A friend.

He’s doing this for a friend.

But who?

The man steps on my chest harder, filling me with pain. But then, he just inspects his knife under the light of the overcast sky. He’s zoning out again, just like he did when we were at the elevator.

“What friend?” I ask, trying to sound rational and even friendly. “It’s all the end now, isn’t it? Maybe you can tell me.

  • She Returned with Genius Babies, He Regretted   Chapter 162

    Third Person POVMira lounges in the hotel lobby, on her fourth glass of champagne for the night. She’s staring at the bubbles, drunk on her own success.“We did it,” she says as she looks up at Russell. “Those kids should be dead by now. I bet Elena is losing her shit over their dead little charred bodies.”She laughs, taking a little candy from the table and popping it into her mouth.How she missed this. Being in a pretty dress and expensive jewelry. Enjoying luxury like this. She’s eyeing Russell, thinking that maybe she can get him to leave his wife for her.But Russell is out by the window, staring through the window. He’s deep in thought.Something isn’t right.Those men should be here by now. They should be reporting to him. Maybe even showing evidence that those kids are indeed gone.Something is amiss. He can tell.“Are those men really reliable like your father said they are?” he asks in a low voice. “How come they’re not here yet?”“Nah, let them be,” she says dismissively

  • She Returned with Genius Babies, He Regretted   Chapter 161

    Elena’s POVThe silence that fills the hallway is greater and heavier than the weight of worry on my shoulders. Time seems to slow down as I turn to face Tristan, who’s standing there with his mouth falling open in shock.He… ordered the twins to get kidnapped?My mind flashes back to what happened at the warehouse. When I rushed in with the money—hell, even just the fact that the money came from him—and the way he came to me when I called for him. The urgency and fear on his face and in his actions when he pried the door open and got the twins out.Was it all just for show?“What?” Tristan blinks repeatedly like he himself is too stunned to speak. “I… I don’t get it. That’s not true. There’s no way it will ever be true!”But no one is listening to him now.“I knew it,” Grandpa Harold is saying. “I shouldn’t have told Elena to work with you. You’re just here to take the children!”To my horror, anger lines Tristan’s face now too. “Take the children? You mean my children?”Alexander st

  • She Returned with Genius Babies, He Regretted   Chapter 160

    Tristan’s POVHearing those words from the backseat is enough to make me jolt. But the crying that comes after it is what nearly makes me stop.Elena is sobbing openly, touching Sophie’s face. I glance at them through the mirror and see that my child’s face is completely pale, her lips losing color by the second and filling my head with bad thoughts.My child.My child who might be dying right now.Who might be dead.“No,” I whisper to myself, trying to push those thoughts out of my head. “Elena, check if she has a pulse. Please.”Elena gets to it and touches the side of her neck. Liam cries and holds his sister gently, steadying her through the speed of my driving. “Yes, she has a pulse. Oh, thank god. Please Tristan take us to a hospital now!”She didn’t need to tell me twice. I don’t know the place at all but I pull up a map and just start to track the nearest one—a small hospital just at the edge of town. I’m going at it fast now, probably faster than what I should be allowed. But

  • She Returned with Genius Babies, He Regretted   Chapter 159

    Third Person POV“Sophie? Sophie, wake up!”Fear sinks into Liam’s bones, leaving him almost breathless as he touches the side of Sophie’s neck, feeling for a pulse. His brain, paranoid and numb with fear, is already pushing strange dark thoughts into him.But when he feels that steady beat, relief releases him from the grip of dread.“Thank god,” he whispers, clutching his sister close to him. “We’re going to get out of here. I’m going to get us out of here.”The footsteps from outside the box are already gone. Liam is finally able to take a deep breath. Slowly, he lifts the lid to see if the coast is clear, but he freezes when he sees that two men are still on the other side of the hallway.“No sign of those two little cunts yet?” one man asks, huffing on a cigarette. “How are we supposed to make the exchange if we can’t find them?”“I don’t fucking know.” The other man sighs. “I mean, we’re still paid either way, right? It’s not like we’re relying on that fake ransom amount.”“We’r

  • She Returned with Genius Babies, He Regretted   Chapter 158

    Elena’s POVThe timing couldn’t be any worse.Mira is decked in what looks like a designer number, a silk dress that’s brightly red, completely in contrast to the theme that the event has going on. Her hair is up, and adorning her neck is a thick diamond necklace that looks very familiar to me.Because I’m the one who made that necklace.It’s an old design of mine, but it was one of my best works at a time. Geometric setting, gold and diamonds, with Colombian sugarloaf cabochon emeralds. It’s pristine, still glimmering in the lights and in perfect condition.One thing I will say about Mira is she will work any contrasting colors. The red and green shouldn’t go together, and yet she’s pulling it off, making it look elegant as she strides close to me with Russell in tow.The press goes crazy, taking so many pictures that for a while, I can’t see anything but the flashes of their cameras.“How are you doing?” Mira asks, leaning in to give me a fake kiss on both cheeks. “It’s been a while

    Third Person POVLiam flexes his neck, cracking his knuckles as he walks over to the lock. It has a number pad on it, attached a clicking mechanism at the edge of the door that allows it to swing open and close.Ten numbers, two symbols. An asterisk and a number sign. Thousands of possible combinations.But he thinks back to the time he saw the man trying out the locks. It didn’t seem too complicated. He didn’t appear like he was pressing a lot of buttons.Maybe if he takes a closer look, he’ll see something that will give it away….“What are you doing?” Sophie asks as she stands next to him in confusion. “I thought you know how to open the lock!”“I don’t,” Liam confesses. “It requires a code, and I don’t think I can hack my way with it. Even if I did know, I don’t have any of my tools. It seems that we just have to try something out. But there are so many combinations!”“Look,” Sophie suddenly says. “Some of the numbers have prints on them. Some of them don’t. Those must be the ones

    Elena’s POVThat night, I go home feeling… weirdly uplifted.I don’t know if it’s because I have a solution for the party and how to escape the scrutiny I know I will receive, or the fact that I agreed to a date with Alexander. All I know is that after this whole day—which is utter disaster in ever
