The sleek black car came to a stop in front of the grand Rowland mansion.

Emily sat quietly, her hands clenched on her lap, eyes wide as she looked through the window. The mansion was larger than anything she had seen before—tall white pillars, neatly trimmed hedges, a golden lion crest above the front door. Everything screamed class, money, and legacy.

Her heart pounded.

Denovon stepped out of the car first and walked to her side. He opened the door and reached out his hand.

Emily hesitated for only a second before placing her hand in his.

“You’re shaking,” Denovon said softly as she stood up.

Emily looked up at the huge house again. “They don’t even know I exist…”

“They will know now,” he replied simply, holding her hand firmly. “And you are my wife. That’s what matters.”

The front door opened just as they reached the steps.

An older man stepped out first—tall, though a bit stooped from age. He had a walking stick, but his eyes were sharp with energy. Emily immediately knew: this wa

    Carter’s Industry"Sis, what are you doing here?" Evelyn asked the moment she saw Emily walking into the building. She smiled widely as if she was genuinely happy to see her."Are you here to see Dad?" she added, walking towards Emily joyfully.But Emily didn’t even look at her.She walked past Evelyn without slowing her steps.It was as if she didn’t hear her.As if Evelyn didn’t exist.She wasn’t here for greetings or fake smiles.She was here for serious business.Evelyn stood awkwardly in place, her hand frozen in the air where she had hoped to hold Emily’s. She looked around, realizing that people in the lobby had seen the whole thing.She bit down on her inner lip, trying to control the anger that boiled inside her. She hated being ignored. Especially in public.Still, she wasn’t ready to give up."Sis, no matter what, please calm down. Our dad is not getting any younger," Evelyn said, raising her voice so people nearby would hear and think she was the mature one.Emily scoffed.

    "What's up, man? Why did you isolate yourself here and look so dead?" Leo asked as he sat down beside Zayne.Zayne was sitting alone at the side of the house, far from where the others were enjoying themselves at the backyard barbecue. The sound of laughter echoed from behind, but he didn’t move or look back. He just stared at his drink.The rejection still sat heavily on his chest. He didn’t expect it to hurt this much. But it did. Deeply."It didn’t go well?" Leo asked again, his voice lower this time. He already knew it was about Amelia.Zayne slowly shook his head.“Oh,” Leo sighed and leaned back, thinking. He didn’t make a joke or tease like he normally would. This time, he understood the weight Zayne was carrying.“What’s her reason?” he asked quietly, glancing at his friend.Zayne swallowed hard before answering. “She said… she doesn’t like me anymore.”Leo looked at him and blinked. “She said that?”Zayne nodded again and took a slow sip from his wine glass.Leo glanced at th

    Amelia finally stepped out of her room, together with Emily and Val. They had been in her room, making plans on how to advertise her wig business or put it into promotion without her family knowing.Even while they talked, Amelia couldn’t ignore the heaviness in her chest. She was fully aware that Zayne was just downstairs.That kiss…It had brought back the feelings she had been trying so hard to bury. Feelings she wanted to let go of. Why did he still have such a strong effect on her? She hated herself for it.Worse, she hated that she couldn’t stop thinking about it.As they stepped into the hallway, Mason’s voice pulled them back to the present."Finally you guys are out," he said, already walking towards them. His eyes were on Val.Without hesitation, he reached out and took her hand, pulling her closer to him. They stood like that, staring at each other as if it had been years since they last met.Well, for Mason, it really felt that way. Ever since Denovon’s accident, they hadn

    The sitting room of Rowland Mansion was filled with voices, and it made Denovon very unhappy.Not that he didn’t appreciate having his family and friends around, or that they cared enough to check on him. He did. But today, and every day since his discharge, he had wanted just one thing—quiet. Total silence. Peace.And clearly, that was too much to ask for.This was the reason he insisted on being discharged from the hospital in the first place. Back then, they kept coming to visit. Now, he was home, and nothing had changed.Well, he was in the family Mansion, not his personal villa because his grandfather and parents wouldn’t hear of him recovering alone. That was the price of being Denovon Rowland...the man everyone either needed, worried about, or watched like a hawk.It had been four days since he was discharged. Four long days. Yet his so-called “rest” was far from peaceful.Even today, his friends were here again. Denovon honestly wondered if they came to check on him… or just t

    "Get me out of here!" Julie screamed at the top of her lungs.Her voice echoed through the wide hallway of the mental asylum. Her throat hurt from shouting, but she didn’t stop. She had been doing this since morning, maybe even before that. She had lost count of time."I don’t belong here!" she cried, her face flushed and wet with tears. Her fists slammed against the small open space of the iron door window, again and again.Her eyes were swollen now, her hair a tangled mess. Her usually polished face was stripped of makeup and dignity. She looked like a mess and not just outside.She was breaking."I’m not one of them!" she yelled, her voice hoarse now. "I’m not mad! I’m not crazy!"She didn’t know how she ended up here. Just three days ago, she was at the police station. She remembered sitting calmly, waiting to be questioned. Then men in uniforms showed up.She thought they were from the police. But something felt off.Before she could ask questions, they blindfolded her and dragge

    "Grandfather, why are you here again?" Denovon asked with a deep frown as his grandfather walked into the hospital room. It had been three days since the accident, and people hadn’t stopped coming to check on him. He was already growing tired of the constant attention."Why won’t I be here again?" Grandfather Gregory responded, brushing off Denovon’s mood as he settled into the chair beside the hospital bed. "Your parents are here too," he added with a light smirk.Almost immediately, Denovon’s parents, Sophia and Richard, stepped inside."How are you doing today, son?" Sophia asked softly, her eyes filled with concern."I'm doing well," Denovon replied, though his face showed signs of weariness. His headache was slowly creeping back again."Hope you're recovering steadily?" Richard added, standing with his hands in his pockets. Denovon gave a small nod in return."Why are you alone? Where is Emily?" Sophia asked, looking around the room and not seeing her daughter-in-law anywhere."I
