She turned to him, her expression a mix of guilt and hesitation.

"Liam? I... I didn't ask. What is your budget? I don't want to use all of your money. I know Sarah said to feel at home, but it feels strange taking so much."

A playful, dangerous glint entered Liam’s eyes. He didn't answer from across the room. Instead, he pushed off the pillar and walked toward her.

Evelyn instinctively backed against the clothing rack as he drew near, the scent of his woodsy cologne wrapping around her.

  • The Billionaire’s Bloody Regret   CHAPTER 18

    Evelyn stood before the full-length mirror in her private suite, her fingers trailing over the expensive fabrics Liam had brought from the boutique. The thick bandage around her head remained, but the dull ache had been replaced by a sharp, electrifying clarity.She picked up a silk blouse the color of a stormy sea and held it against her chest."Julian always hated this color," she whispered to her reflection, a cold smile touching her lips. "He said it was too loud. Too... distracting."She looked at the vibrant teals, the rich creams, and the bold sunflowers she had chosen. Even with a head injury, her instincts hadn't failed her; every piece was a masterpiece of tailoring."My taste is impeccable," she murmured, a spark of pride warming her chest. "How did I ever let that man convince me to wear charcoal wool for five years? I must have been truly lost."A rhythmic rapping at the door broke her concentration. "CEO? Are you decent?"Sarah pushed the door open before Evelyn could

    While Evelyn was reclaiming her fire in one wing of the hospital, the atmosphere in the VIP maternity ward was thick with a very different kind of tension."How could you be so careless, Julian?!"The voice of Julian’s mother, Mrs. Hart, rang out like a whip crack. She stood over the hospital bed, her face contorted with aristocratic disdain. She didn't even look at her son as she paced, her heels clicking aggressively on the linoleum."I told you to watch over Claire! She is carrying the future of the Hart legacy," Mrs. Hart hissed. "And yet, you let that... that jinx of a woman get close enough to injure her? Evelyn was a mistake from the day you brought her home, and she seems determined to haunt us until the end!"Julian stood by the window, jaw aching and pride in tatters. "Mother, I didn't expect her to be there—""Expectations don't save pregnancies, Julian!""Please, Mother Hart... don't be so hard on him." Claire’s voice was a soft melody that cut through the venom. She la

    The sterile white walls of the private hospital wing felt cold and oppressive. Evelyn lay in bed, her head wrapped in a thick bandage that stood out sharply against her pale skin. The rhythmic beep of the heart monitor was the only sound in the room until the heavy doors swung open with a bang."Where is she? Where is my Eve?"Sarah rushed into the ward, her breath coming in ragged gasps. She didn’t stop to greet her brother; she flew to the bedside, eyes wide with a mixture of terror and fury. When she saw the bruising around Evelyn’s temple, her face crumpled."Oh, sweetie," Sarah whispered, reaching out to squeeze Evelyn’s hand. "Look at you. I turned my back for one morning and—" She choked back a sob. "How are you feeling? Do you know where you are? Is the pain bad?"Evelyn offered a small, weary smile, though every movement of her jaw sent a throb through her skull. "I'm okay, Sarah. Really. They gave me something for the pain. I’m just... tired."Sarah wasn’t satisfied.

    Julian’s frown deepened until it was a jagged scar across his face. He stared at Evelyn, waiting for the familiar flinch, the tearful apology, the submission he had feasted on for five years.It never came.Instead, Evelyn looked at him with intense, localized disgust, as if she had just stepped in something foul on the sidewalk."What the hell is happening?" Julian hissed, his ego reeling. She was looking at him like he was... nothing. "Is your name even Evelyn?" he spat, voice trembling with mounting fury. "Are you really going to stand there and play this delusional game?"Evelyn didn't blink. She looked at him like he was a complete weirdo, a madman shouting at a stranger in a mall. "My name is none of your business," she snapped. "But your behavior certainly is.""Julian! The baby! Please... it hurts!" Claire’s voice rose to a piercing wail from the floor.Julian’s hero instinct kicked in.He rushed back to Claire, cradling her against his chest, his eyes darting between his

    Evelyn stared at the woman in the mirror. A jarring sense of familiarity flickered, a fragmented memory of this woman laughing, standing close to a man whose face remained a blurred smudge in Evelyn’s mind. But the connection was severed, lost in the heavy fog of her amnesia.The woman turned. The moment she saw Evelyn, her triumphant smile vanished, replaced by a cold, sharpened glare. Her eyes raked over the vibrant teal dress in Evelyn’s hands with pure venom."Evelyn?" Claire snapped, her voice dripping with hostility. "What are you doing here? Don't tell me you followed me."Evelyn blinked, baffled by the raw hatred radiating from this stranger. "I’m sorry? Do I know you?"Claire let out a harsh, mocking laugh. "Oh, stop the act. It’s pathetic. Did you come here to stage another accident? Are you trying to hurt my baby because you couldn't keep Julian?" She stepped forward, one hand protectively shielding her stomach. "You’ve already done enough damage to the Hart family.

Instead, he pushed off the pillar and walked toward her. Evelyn instinctively backed against the clothing rack as he drew near, the scent of his woodsy cologne wrapping around her. He didn't stop until he was inches away, leaning down until his face was level with hers."Eve," he said, his voice dropping to a low, velvety rumble. "What exactly do you think of me?"She blinked, trapped between the dresses and his broad chest. "I... I think you’re very kind, and—"He stepped even closer, invading her personal space until she could feel the heat radiating from him. A small, amused smirk played on his lips. "Do you think I’m broke? Or perhaps you think I’m too poor to afford a fe

    Liam’s eyes dropped to the screen. His entire aura shifted. The kind, protective brother vanished, replaced by a man who looked ready to kill. He recognized that name. He knew exactly who was on the other end of that signal."Is that him?" Liam asked, his voice dropping to a dangerously low pitch.

    A soft, rhythmic rapping at the door broke the morning silence. Evelyn didn’t startle this time. She remained by the window, a sketchbook propped against her knees, her charcoal pencil dancing across the paper in light, hesitant strokes. At the sound of the knock, she turned her head, her dark h

    Julian Hart’s office felt like a pressurised chamber, the air thick with the scent of expensive bourbon and his own suffocating ego. He paced the length of the room, chest heaving, fingers twitching with a murderous energy. The silence that followed Liam’s hang-up was more insulting than any shou
