THE WOMAN WHO CAME BACK Chapter 27-IRENE
The night clung to the city in a quiet hush, as if the world itself was holding its breath. Irene stood at the tall glass window of her apartment, her reflection fractured against the city’s blinking lights. She had grown used to silence—it was the only companion that hadn’t betrayed her over the years. Yet tonight, the silence didn’t comfort. It warned.The knock on her door was firm, decisive, the kind that carried no hesitation. She didn’t have to ask who it was.“Come in,” she said softly, her voice steady though her hands trembled against the hem of her blouse.The door opened, and Jaxon stepped inside. His presence filled the room—broad shoulders set with tension, his expression carved in steel. He closed the door behind him without a word, his eyes locking on her like a predator who had finally cornered its prey.For a long beat, neither spoke. Then he moved closer, every step deliberate.“Enough games,” Jaxon said, his tone low, unyielding. “I want the truth, Irene. Or should
THE WOMAN WHO CAME BACK Chapter 26-ELISE RUFUS
The glass walls of Black Enterprises’ executive wing gleamed with sterile perfection, reflecting the late afternoon sunlight in crisp shards of gold. The air smelled faintly of polished wood and expensive cologne, the kind of environment designed to impress investors and intimidate competitors.Kieran moved through the corridor with his usual commanding stride, his tailored suit a second skin, his presence magnetic enough that staff members lowered their voices the instant he passed. Yet beneath the steel confidence etched into his features, his mind churned with turbulence. Irene’s calculated moves, Clara’s suspicions, Lyana’s delicate maneuverings—everything was colliding into a storm that threatened not only his empire but his grip on control.And that was something Kieran Black never allowed to slip.He stopped outside a door etched with a brass plate:Elise Rufus – Head of Public Relations.He didn’t knock. Kieran never knocked. He simply pushed the door open and entered.Elise l
THE WOMAN WHO CAME BACK Chapter 25-CLARA
The chandeliers of Kieran’s estate glowed with warm golden light, but for Clara the world felt colder with each passing hour. She paced the drawing room restlessly, her slippers sliding noiselessly over the marble tiles, her nerves fraying with every step. She had sent for Lyana in haste, barely offering an explanation, only insisting that she come alone. When Lyana finally arrived, she entered with the unhurried poise of someone who never allowed others to see her sweat. She draped her shawl over one ever saw, her expression cool as ever. “You called for me like the house was on fire,” Lyana said smoothly, crossing to the small bar in the corner. “And yet here you are, pacing holes into Kieran’s floor. What could possibly be so urgent?” Clara spun toward her, eyes flashing. “Don’t play with me, Lyana. You know what this is about. It’s Irene.” Lyana paused in the act of pouring herself a drink. She swirled the dark wine in her glass before taking a delicate sip. “What about her?”
THE WOMAN WHO CAME BACK Chapter 24-IRIDINA
The boardroom smelled of expensive coffee and lemon polish. Morning light carved clean lines across the glass table where the papers lay—stacked, folded, ready. Irene moved with the same composed confidence she’d worn the night before, every step measured so as not to betray the tremor under her skin. James stood by the window like a sentry, his face a mask of contained eagerness.“You sure they’ll come?” he asked in a low voice.“They trust their routine,” Irene said. “They don’t read. They don’t look. They assume. That makes them dangerous because they forget to be careful.”The door opened. Kieran swept in first, larger than life, the kind of man who took up space and expected the room to revolve around him. Lyana followed, perfumed and practiced, her smile a curated thing. They settled, laughed a little, and reached for the pens as if they were signing away a grocery list.James laid out the papers. “Just routine consolidations. Quick signatures and we’re done.”Kieran barely glan
THE WOMAN WHO CAME BACK Chapter 23-IRIDINA
Irene sat in her dimly lit office, the hum of the city outside muted by the thick curtains. The recent events with Charles had rattled her more than she cared to admit, but amidst the fear and panic, a spark ignited—a plan long buried in the shadows of her mind now clawing its way to the surface. It’s time. Her fingers drummed on the polished wood desk, a rhythm matched only by her heartbeat. She thought of Kieran and Lyana, their arrogance, their smug laughter as they flaunted wealth that wasn’t truly theirs. They believed themselves untouchable, untethered from consequences, but they hadn’t counted on her. Not really. Not when she was Iridina—the name that carried power, influence, and the ability to erase anyone’s control over their fortunes in an instant. Irene leaned back, letting her eyes drift to the framed documents stacked neatly on her desk—legal papers she had acquired weeks ago, painstakingly forged with precision and timing. Every line, every signature, every clause had
THE WOMAN WHO CAME BACK Chapter 22-KIERAN
The morning sunlight broke through Kieran’s blinds with a warmth that mirrored the rare peace inside him. He lay in bed longer than usual, staring at the ceiling as a small, unshakable smile curved his lips. His chest felt lighter, as if years of heaviness had been lifted overnight. For once, the silence around him was not suffocating. It was hopeful.A child.The thought lingered sweetly, circling his mind like music he didn’t want to end.He closed his eyes again, letting himself imagine it fully. Tiny feet padding across hardwood floors. The sound of soft giggles echoing in a home that had been far too empty for far too long. A little hand tugging at his sleeve, eyes so innocent, calling him Daddy. The word struck him deep, reshaping wounds he once thought would never heal.For years, Kieran had trained himself not to think too far ahead, not to hope for something that always felt out of reach. But now, for the first time, hope didn’t feel foolish. It felt real. Within his grasp. H
