Back in Rowan’s office, the atmosphere had shifted into something strangely calm after their conversation in the hallway.

At least for Shannon, because she felt like she had finally managed to reach him a little. Enough to make hope bloom quietly inside her chest again.

She stood near his desk now with her phone in hand, excitement softening every part of her face as she scrolled through restaurant reservations.

“I got us a table,” she said happily.

Rowan looked up briefly from the documents in

    Kennedy took the tablet. The dates were years apart, but the connection remained.Eastborough handled the transport in which Silas supposedly died. Later, one of its former managers moved into hospital work and became the coordinator involved in Amelia’s crash.Caldridge also made payments to people connected to both events, Meridian preserved the records, and Darius had entered the archive and deleted them.Mr. Voss looked towards Kennedy. “This began before Edward betrayed you.”Kennedy’s face changed.Edward remained guilty. Nothing could erase the contracts he stole, the officials he bribed or the fortune he built from Kennedy’s destruction. But the machinery surrounding Shannon’s disappearance belonged to something older, something connected to Kennedy’s family before Edward ever entered it.“Darius is removing evidence of Silas’s death,” Sean said. “He also followed Evelyn after someone ordered her to harm Shannon’s child.”Shannon felt the room grow colder.Kennedy shook his he

    Shannon was seated in the downstairs sitting room when Sean arrived. She had changed after returning from the clinic and now wore a soft dress that made the curve of her stomach impossible to miss.Amelia sat beside her, reading through the doctor’s instructions, while two security guards remained outside the room.The front doors opened.Shannon knew it was Sean before she saw him. Her body reacted first.Her fingers tightened against the edge of the sofa, and her breath caught somewhere between her chest and throat.Sean entered with one of Kennedy’s guards behind him. He had changed from the clothes he wore outside the clinic. His dark suit fit him perfectly, but exhaustion had left its mark across his face. He looked thinner than he had when Kennedy ordered him out.For one suspended moment, neither of them moved.Sean’s gaze found Shannon immediately. It travelled across her face, then dropped to her stomach. The control he carried into the house nearly broke.Shannon wanted to s

    Sean leaned closer. “Who is that?”“I don’t know.”The directory contained dozens of files, but only fragments became visible before the deletion began.A criminal conviction, a prison photograph, a death certificate, transport records, and payments from Caldridge to employees connected to Eastborough Secure Transport.Ethan copied everything the mirror could reach. Within thirty seconds, the entire directory disappeared from the original archive and the external session ended immediately afterwards.Ethan sat back. “They’re gone.”“What did we save?”“Most of the file names. Some documents. I need time to reconstruct the corrupted sections.”“Start with Silas Miles.”Ethan searched the name through public records.The first result came from an old newspaper archive. A grainy photograph showed a younger man being led towards a courthouse with officers on either side of him. His expression was calm despite the crowd surrounding him.The headline identified him. MILES HEIR CONVICTED OF

    “Set up a secure line with Sean’s team,” Kennedy ordered.Shannon looked at him.The investigator hesitated. “You want us to cooperate with him?”“Only on Darius Kane and threats involving Shannon. Nothing else.”“I’ll arrange it.”The call ended.Kennedy remained facing the screen.Amelia watched him. “Call Sean yourself.”“There is no reason.”“He protected your daughter today.”“He placed unauthorized men around her.”“And because he did, Shannon was moved before Darius could reach the sixth floor.”Kennedy turned towards her. “We do not know that he intended to approach her.”“We know Evelyn was ordered to hurt the baby. We know Darius followed her. How much more would you like to discover through experience?”Kennedy had no answer.Shannon’s phone remained in her lap. “Dad,” she said softly. “Please.”The request defeated what anger could not.Kennedy picked up his phone and called Sean.Sean answered after the second ring.Neither man greeted the other.“I verified your document

    Shannon’s breath caught when the message arrived.Amelia looked towards her but said nothing.The night Kennedy ordered Sean out returned with painful clarity. Sean had looked at her while Aria stood beside him crying. He had waited for Shannon to say something, anything, that would separate him from Edward’s crimes. She had remained silent.Even after Amelia followed them outside, Shannon had stayed behind.Now Sean had stood somewhere close enough to see her enter the clinic, and he had chosen not to disturb the life that appeared to have closed without him.Her eyes burned. She typed several responses and deleted each one. 'I was afraid.' Too late. 'I wanted you there.' Then why had she never called? 'I’m sorry.' The words felt too small.Before she decided, another message appeared. Evelyn was sent there to make her lose her baby.Shannon went cold.Sean continued. The man controlling her is connected to the consultants advising my father and the company holding the transferred V

    Mrs. Vale watched him move towards the window. She knew her husband well enough to recognize when fear had disguised itself as anger. Before she could question him again, Edward’s phone chimed.A message from Darius appeared. Open the original Meridian archive. Transfer full administrative access to the enclosed credentials. Do not allow Vale personnel to monitor the session.A set of encrypted access details followed.Mrs. Vale read his expression. “What does he want?”“The old Meridian records.”“Why?”“To find something Kennedy missed.”“Can he use them to stop the petition?”“That is what he claims.”“And you believe him?”Edward remembered Silas’s hand closing around his. Without questions?He had already agreed.“The records cannot hurt us more than they already have.”“That isn’t true.”Edward looked at her.“Some of those files were never found,” she continued. “Payments, letters, the people you used. What if he releases them too?”“He already had enough to release the video.

    The hospital discharged them the next day.Shannon didn’t know whether that was fate or cruelty.She stood just outside the building, her fingers gripping the thin discharge papers in her hand as the sunlight hit her face. Too bright. Like the world hadn’t just ended for her.A few steps ahead Rowa

    Shannon’s knees weakened beneath her. Three months of silence. Three months of absence. Three months where she wasn’t there. Her breathing grew uneven. Three months where someone else was. Her gaze slowly shifted back to Rowan. And this time she understood. Rowan watched her, something sharp

    Rowan sat on the bed, his arm wrapped loosely around Evelyn.Evelyn stood close, too close, and Rowan leaned in, pressing a soft kiss to her cheek like it was the most natural thing in the world.Like he had done it a hundred times.Like it belonged there.“Stop!”The word tore out of Shannon befor

    The first thing Shannon felt was the weight, like her entire body had been dragged beneath something heavy and invisible, pressing her down into a darkness that refused to let her rise.Then came the sound, a slow, steady beep... beep... beep...It echoed from far away at first, distant and unreal,
