last update Petsa ng paglalathala: 2026-03-23 00:50:48

Shen POV

I tried to stay away from him. God, I tried. All day, I kept my distance. Not far enough to lose sight of him, never that, but far enough that I didn’t have to feel the pull every time he moved, every time he breathed, every time he said my name like it meant something more than just sound. It didn’t work. Nothing about this worked. Because every time he stepped out of my line of sight, something in me tightened, sharp and restless, that refused to settle until I found him again.

  • The Forgotten Vow (MM Romance)   Chapter 140 — Conrad Makes His Move

    Conrad POVLosing is a slow process that becomes sudden.I watched the slow decline unfold over weeks, board resignations, legal filings, and Gerald Fitch feeding my secrets to Leander’s team. My mistake was trusting a man who knew exactly how deep my reach went. I spent hours in my hotel suite, watching my carefully built empire dismantle on screens broadcast to shareholders and the world.His husband. His son. Three years old.Leander had stood at that podium, delivering his ultimatum with the calm of a man who no longer feared the world. Shareholders listened, confused by this new, incomprehensible reality. I watched the legal machinery grind forward, systematic and cold. It was Leander’s now.Then, suddenly, everything changed on a Thursday. My lawyer called: Elena had agreed to testify. Her deposition would be comprehensive, the timeline she provided sealing every remaining gap in the case.Elena. My wife. The woman who wept in my arms for three years while I arranged her brother

  • The Forgotten Vow (MM Romance)   Chapter 139 — Elena Before She Testifies Part 2

    Avelin POVMorning sunlight filtered through the blinds, thin and unforgiving. I sat at the table again, though the tea was long gone. My phone lay on the wood, silent. No messages from Leander, no updates from the legal team, just the ticking of the clock.Shen stirred, his head lolling against my shoulder. I moved him to the couch, draping a blanket over him. He did not wake.I stood in the quiet kitchen's quiet. Yesterday’s visit had felt like a catalyst; now, it felt like the calm before a storm that would tear everything apart.The bond felt tighter today, a low hum of tension from Leander’s side. He was preparing, I knew. He had the evidence, the witnesses, the wreckage of three years to present to the judge. But the human cost, the core of it, rested on Elena.I looked out the window. The street was busy, people heading to work, oblivious to the family’s history about to be rewritten.A knock at the door startled me.I checked the time. Seven. Too early for anyone unless the sc

  • The Forgotten Vow (MM Romance)   Chapter 138 — Elena Before She Testifies Part 1

    Avelin POVNine in the evening. A knock echoed through the apartment.Leander had warned me the night before, his voice quiet and careful. Elena requested to see me, not him, before the testimony. He understood if I refused. I spent the day turning the thought over in my mind, making Shen’s lunch, answering emails, acting as if the week hadn’t been the most complicated of the past three years. In the end, I told Leander to give her the address.She did not resemble the woman I expected. I had imagined the polished, distant Voss sister, but instead, she looked like someone who had carried a heavy burden for years and finally accepted the toll. No jewelry, simple clothes, hair pulled back. She looked human. After months of Leander’s descriptions and formal family gatherings, her presence at my door felt jarring."Avelin," Elena said."Elena. Come in."She hesitated before entering. Her eyes swept the room, the small space, the drawings on the walls, stray shoes, a dinosaur toy left on t

  • The Forgotten Vow (MM Romance)   Chapter 137 — The Press Conference

    Avelin POV I almost stayed in the apartment.When Leander called last night to break the news about the public declaration, my chest went tight. He offered me a choice to sit this one out. He did not want to push. But the bond hummed with a quiet, raw need that told me the opposite. He needed me in that room. I needed to see him stand ground against the world after three years of dark silence.So I chose to go.Renlo stood at our door at 7:00 AM sharp in a pressed charcoal suit. He took one look at my pale face, then at Shen, who wore a blue shirt with a faint yellow shadow on the collar from a Tuesday crayon accident. Renlo did not ask questions. He simply took the heavy diaper bag from my shoulder and gave my arm a firm squeeze."You look ready," Renlo said as we hit the pavement."I feel sick," I muttered."Both can be true," he replied.Shen marched between us, his small shoes clicking on the concrete. "Are we meeting Papa?""Yes, baby," I said.Shen nodded, his doubts gone. If

  • The Forgotten Vow (MM Romance)   Chapter 136- Board Confrontation

    Leander POVThe boardroom clock ticked to 8:40 AM.I sat at the head of the long polished table, my hands flat on the wood. The glass walls showed the city below, washed in gray morning light. I chose this seat early for a reason. When the rest arrived, they must walk in and find the space already claimed.Three manila folders rested in front of me. They did not contain stacks of paper, just clear, unyielding data. Bank transfers. Timestamps. Metadata.The door clicked. Elias walked in, his face a smooth mask. He took a seat two chairs to my left and set down his coffee mug. He did not speak. He had read the files last night. He knew the parameters of the morning.At 9:00 AM sharp, the brass handle turned.Marcus Webb, Diane Cho, and Gerald Fitch entered in a tight cluster. They walked shoulder to shoulder, a unified front cooked up during some late-night panic call.They saw me. Marcus caught his heel on the carpet. Diane stiffened, her chin jerking up."Sit," I said.They took their

  • The Forgotten Vow (MM Romance)   Chapter 135-Baby Shen's Fear

    Avelin POVChildren notice everything. I learned this by raising Shen alone for three years. He always caught the exact moment my smile turned fake, bringing me his stuffed bear like medicine. His dark blue eyes simply saw too much for a child who stood at hip height. He tracked the subtle shifts in a room, reading the emotional weather long before any words were spoken.But the week after the note arrived under our door, his awareness became a heavy weight.It started with his sleep. Shen had been a reliable sleeper since he was a toddler, down at eight, out until morning. He loved his routine: his stuffed wolf, his blanket setup, and the blue nightlight glow on the ceiling. He used to drift off with total peace, trusting the walls around him completely.That week, the routine broke.At eleven o'clock the first night, small feet padded down the hallway. The doorknob clicked. Shen stood in my doorway, holding his wolf, eyes wide and asking. I lifted the blanket without a word. He clim
