Lena stared at the photograph in Adrian’s hand.

For several seconds, neither of them moved.

The rain outside the abandoned house had grown heavier, drumming against the broken windows and making the silence inside feel even more suffocating. Victor’s men were still somewhere outside. Every now and then, Lena could hear footsteps moving through the muddy ground.

But all she could think about was what Adrian had just said.

“That baby…” Her voice came out barely above a whisper. “That was you?”

  • The Boss Who Hated Me Back   Chapter 50 — The Boss Who Loved Me Back

    Lena stared at the envelope on the table.For the first time in weeks, the house was quiet. No threatening phone calls. No strangers watching from across the street. No secrets waiting to destroy whatever little happiness she had left.Yet the envelope bearing Victor Hale’s name made her uneasy.Adrian stood behind her, resting his hands gently on her shoulders.Are you going to open it?Lena nodded.I need to know what else he wanted to tell us.She carefully opened the envelope and pulled out a folded letter. Inside was a photograph of Victor, her father, Adrian’s father, and two little children standing in front of the old warehouse.Lena smiled faintly.We really did know each other before everything happened.Adrian leaned closer.Apparently, I was following you around even back then.She turned to him, raising an eyebrow.You were?According to this picture, yes.He pointed at the photograph. Little Adrian stood beside Lena, holding her hand while she appeared to be reaching for

  • The Boss Who Hated Me Back   Chapter 49 — The Final Account

    Charles stared at Lena.The confidence in his expression was gone.Where is the key?Lena slowly stepped backward.Adrian moved with her.You're not getting it.Charles raised his weapon.You don't understand what you're holding.Lena touched the pendant around her neck.Then explain it.Her father stepped forward.The account was created years ago. Your mother and I used it to protect the money Charles stole from innocent families.Charles laughed bitterly.You think that money belongs to you?No.Her father looked directly at him.It belongs to the people you robbed.Marcus suddenly entered the room.And we have enough evidence to prove it.Charles turned toward him.You.Marcus raised his weapon.It's over.Charles fired.Marcus ducked.The bullet struck the wall.Adrian pulled Lena toward the hidden exit.Go!Lena hesitated.What about my parents?Adrian looked at her father.We'll meet you outside.Her father nodded.Take her.Lena and Adrian ran through the narrow passage.Behin

  • The Boss Who Hated Me Back   Chapter 48 — The Father Behind the Mask

    Lena couldn't move.Her father stood in the doorway.The man she had spent years believing was dead was standing in front of her.Alive.Dad?His eyes softened.Lena.She took a shaky step toward him.You were alive.He nodded.I was.Her voice broke.Then why did you leave me?He looked at Rebecca.Because staying with you would have gotten you killed.Lena shook her head.You don't get to decide that for me.Her father lowered his eyes.You're right.For years, I told myself I was protecting you. But the truth is, I was afraid.Afraid of Charles?Afraid of what would happen if Charles discovered you were still alive.Adrian stepped beside Lena.You made everyone believe you were dead.I had to.You manipulated Daniel.I did.Adrian's expression hardened.You used him.Her father looked at him.I gave him orders because Charles had people everywhere. I needed someone inside his organization who could move information without being detected.Daniel wasn't a traitor.He was protecting

    The gunshot echoed through the burning warehouse.Lena froze.Victor!Victor stumbled backward, one hand pressed against his chest.Charles lowered his gun.For a second, nobody moved.Then Victor looked toward Lena.Run!Charles turned toward the exit.Adrian grabbed Lena's hand.Move!They rushed forward, but Marcus fired at Charles.Charles ducked behind a steel beam.Rebecca pulled Lena toward the door.Go!Lena looked back.Victor was still standing.Barely.She couldn't leave him.Mom, go!Lena ran toward Victor.Adrian followed.Victor collapsed against the wall.Lena dropped beside him.You're hurt.Victor gave a weak smile.I've been hurt before.She pressed her hands against the wound.Stay with me.Victor looked at her.You were always stubborn.Lena's eyes filled with tears.You saved me once.I'm not letting you die now.Victor looked at Adrian.Protect her.Adrian nodded.I will.Victor reached into his jacket and pulled out a small key.He placed it in Adrian's hand.Yo

  • The Boss Who Hated Me Back   Chapter 46 — Back to the Fire

    The old warehouse stood exactly as Lena remembered it.Broken windows.Rusting metal doors.Blackened walls that still carried the scars of the fire.For a moment, Lena couldn't move.Adrian stood beside her.You don't have to do this.Lena looked at him.Yes, I do.He took her hand.Then we do it together.Marcus stayed several meters behind them, watching the surrounding area.No movement.No cars.Nothing.That's what worries me, he said.Lena looked at the warehouse.Charles wants us to think he's waiting inside.Adrian nodded.But he's already planned everything.They entered through the same side door Victor had once used.The smell of smoke seemed to linger despite the years.Lena's chest tightened.I remember this place.Adrian looked at her.What do you remember?A voice.A man's voice.She closed her eyes.He was arguing with my father.What did he say?Lena opened her eyes.He said he couldn't let them take the money.Adrian frowned.Who couldn't?I don't know.Suddenly, Ma

  • The Boss Who Hated Me Back   Chapter 45 — The Choice

    Lena stared at the black screen.For a moment, she couldn't hear anything except her own heartbeat.Adrian stepped closer.You're not going alone.Lena looked at him.He threatened to kill my mother.And he'll kill you if you go alone.She shook her head.I can't risk her life.Adrian took both of her hands.You're not risking anything. We're going together.Lena stared into his eyes.What if he kills her the moment he sees you?He won't.How do you know?Because he needs something from us.Adrian glanced at the letter still lying on the desk.The inheritance.Lena frowned.What inheritance?The truth about what our fathers left behind.He picked up another document from the desk.There were several accounts listed under different names.Adrian scanned the pages.These aren't bank accounts.What are they?Companies.Dozens of them.Lena moved closer.All connected to one holding company.Adrian's expression changed.Blackwood International.Charles didn't just steal money.He built an
