The sun had barely begun to set when the black sedan pulled up to the long, ivy-lined drive of the Hale mansion. The golden glow of dusk spread across the rolling lawns, softening everything in sight the fountain at the entrance, the manicured roses, the house that had once seemed so unwelcoming…And looking very immaculate…

Adrian tightened his grip on the steering wheel as he parked. He could feel his pulse quicken, not from fear, but from the weight of what the evening meant. It wasn’t just a dinner. It was acceptance…after the meeting he had with Sebastian Hale ..Alas he sees him now as Man who loves his son and his grandson …

Beside him, Gabriel looked effortlessly calm, though the small movement of his thumb rubbing against Adrian’s wrist betrayed a hint of nerves. Elias sat in the back seat, swinging his legs, humming under his breath, clutching the small bouquet he had insisted on picking himself for his “Grandpa Sebastian.”

“You okay?” Gabriel asked softly.

    The gymnasium was packed with proud parents and the hum of excitement. Balloons brushed against the ceiling, and the air smelled faintly of flowers and new beginnings. Adrian and Gabriel sat in the front row, both dressed sharply Adrian in a tailored navy suit, Gabriel in a soft cream blazer that brought out the warmth in his skin. Their hands were clasped discreetly, a quiet gesture of pride and unity.. they were so proud of their son the growth ….On stage, Elias stood behind the podium, tall, confident, and glowing with that unmistakable spark of youth. His graduation cap was tilted just a little of course and Clara sat among the students, eyes fixed on him, her smile tender and proud.Elias cleared his throat, looking out over the sea of faces. When he began to speak, his voice was steady, though his eyes gleamed with emotion.“When I was a kid,” he started, “I thought strength meant never needing help. I thought love meant being perfect. But then I grew up watching two peopl

    It was one of those lazy Saturday mornings the sunlight spilling across the marble floors of the Knight mansion, the scent of coffee hanging in the air, and a playlist humming low from the living room speakers. Adrian had rolled out of bed late, still half tangled in the sheets, with Gabriel draped across his chest like he owned the place — which, let’s be honest, he basically did. “Babe,” Gabriel mumbled, eyes still closed. You promised breakfast today..... Adrian chuckled, brushing a strand of hair from his face. “I promised coffee. You heard what you wanted.” “Same thing,” Gabriel said, stretching like a cat and refusing to move. “Get up,” Adrian said, tapping his hip. “If you want pancakes, you’re helping.” That earned him a lazy groan and a laugh. They eventually made it to the kitchen Gabriel in one of Adrian’s oversized shirts, his bare feet padding across the tile. Adrian swore the man could make flipping pancakes look like an act of seduction. “Adrian Knight,” Gab

    The late afternoon sun bathed the city in a warm, golden hue, the light streaming through the tall windows of the Knight mansion. Adrian leaned against the balcony rail, watching how the skyline as it shifted from day to dusk. Below, laughter echoed from the garden — Elias’s laughter — deep, genuine, and alive. It was the sound of a young man who had found something new, something soft and unfamiliar. He smiled faintly, sipping from his glass. Gabriel appeared behind him, barefoot, hair a little messy, wearing one of Adrian’s shirts like he often did when he didn’t feel like dressing up. His presence was grounding always had been. Gabriel slid his arms around Adrian’s waist and rested his chin on his shoulder. “Elias is glowing,” baby ??Gabriel murmured with that small, knowing smile. Adrian chuckled. “He’s in love.” Gabriel made a soft sound of amusement. “You mean again?” “This time, it feels different,” Adrian said. “She’s... good for him. You can see it.” They watched

  • THE CEO'S SECRET REDEMPTION    chapter hundred and Eleven

    The day was quiet too quiet for Adrian’s liking. The air carried that muted chill that came just before autumn truly began, and the grey clouds above the city felt heavy with memory. It had been years since Adrian visited his parents’ graves, and though he had thought of them often, life had been moving so fast lately the company, the family, the quiet domestic happiness he never believed he’d have that the past had slowly blurred into something distant, almost unreal.But that morning, as he sat by the window of his office, the city skyline glinting through the glass, a strange melancholy washed over him. It wasn’t sadness exactly more like a pull, a quiet reminder of where he came from, of the ghosts who had shaped him before he learned how to build something gentler.He shut down his computer, ignored the calls waiting to be returned, and drove out of the city. The road to the old family cemetery was long and winding, lined with trees that whispered softly in the breeze. The far

    The months after their honeymoon felt like a dream slowly finding its rhythm again not the kind of dream that fades with daylight, but one that lingers, becomes part of life itself. Adrian had returned to Knight Enterprises with a different kind of energy more calmer, more grounded. He no longer chased perfection the way he used to; instead, he let success flow naturally. The company was thriving, his employees more confident than ever under his gentler leadership. On most mornings, Adrian left the house in his sleek black Aston Martin, the hum of the engine a low, steady sound that echoed through their long driveway. It had always been his favorite car not because of the brand or the status it carried, but because Gabriel had given it to him years ago as a symbol of faith, back when everything between them was uncertain. Now, each time he drove it to work, it reminded him of how far they’d come from chaos to calm, from surviving to living. The dashboard reflected his face in th

  • THE CEO'S SECRET REDEMPTION    chapter hundred and Nine

    The honeymoon was everything the wedding had not been so quiet, unhurried, and breathtakingly peaceful. After weeks of laughter, guests, flashing cameras, and celebration, Greece felt like another world. The Aegean Sea stretched endlessly before them, shimmering under sunlight that painted everything gold. Their villa, perched on the cliffs of Santorini, overlooked whitewashed rooftops and the deep blue of the caldera. Every window opened to a view that looked like a dream. On their first morning there, the world seemed to move slower. Gabriel woke first, the pale light of dawn spilling through the open curtains. The sea breeze carried the faint scent of salt and lemon blossoms. Adrian was still asleep beside him, his features softened by the kind of peace Gabriel hadn’t seen in years — no furrow in his brow, no guarded expression, just quiet. The sound of waves crashing below was the only rhythm that filled the air. Gabriel turned slightly, his fingers brushing against Adrian
