Seeing his son’s face suddenly turn pale, Roland smirked. Even though both of his arms were still being restrained, he didn’t look pressured or burdened in the slightest.

"I won’t let you off that easily!" William growled at his father before striding quickly in the direction his men had pointed out.

His heartbeat was completely out of control now. The piece of Caelric’s clothing stained with red only made his thoughts more chaotic.

He felt like he had failed. The image of Serena’s sorrow flash

    "Let me go! I’ll make you regret what you’ve done to me!"Elsewhere, Roland had been taken by several of Martin’s men to a secluded place. Instead of handing him over to the police right away, Martin ultimately ordered his men to lock Roland up first.Yes, he did all of this because he didn’t want his time divided while his child was still missing and not yet found. An old warehouse he owned was finally put to use to imprison his archenemy. His other men stood guard tightly around the place, so no one could enter without his permission."You’re all just wasting your time!" Roland protested again. "Once I get out of here, I can pay you and make you do whatever I want!""Too bad you’re still in here right now," one of Martin’s men replied with a mocking chuckle. "So save your words until you can actually walk out of this place."Snorting, Roland glanced at an old clock hanging nearby. His lips curled into a smirk as he remembered what would happen in three hours. He finally stopped stru

    "Will..."Serena felt as though she were standing on the edge of darkness. Cold wind lashed against her face. The scent of damp earth filled her lungs. Every inch of her body throbbed, as if she had been shattered into pieces and stitched back together again."William..."Her lips moved weakly as she tried to sense her surroundings. The strong arms wrapped around her, protective and warm. Slowly, she forced her eyes open. Her breath catching when she realized just how steep and high the ravine was where she had fallen."William!" she cried, her voice trembling as she noticed the man beside her still had his eyes tightly shut.Serena struggled to sit up despite the pain coursing through her body. She gently patted the man’s cheek, trying to wake him. Her heart pounded as worry tightened around her chest. Tears spilled freely down her face when he failed to respond to her touch or her voice."Will... please, wake up!" she sobbed softly, her body shaking.Serena clutched the fabric of hi

  • The Hidden Heiress: A Sweet Taste of Revenge   Falling with You

    "Mommy!"Caelric’s hysterical scream tore through the air. Tears streamed down his small face as he saw his mother standing at the very edge of the cliff. His tiny legs kicked frantically, begging his father to put him down. But William only tightened his hold around him."Please, don’t be insane," William hissed at his father.Roland responded with a soft, amused chuckle. He ignored William completely and forced Serena another step backward."She has absolutely nothing to do with our feud!" Martin shouted. "Let my daughter go, or I swear I’ll destroy every part of your life!"Roland laughed louder, his grip on Serena’s wrist tightening."If she has nothing to do with it, then Evelyn didn’t either," he sneered. "Bring her back to life first. Then maybe I won’t push this one over the edge.""You..." Martin dragged a hand down his face in frustration. He glanced between his daughter and grandson. "This is exactly what I meant. Negotiating with a devil like him is pointless!""So you’re

    "You..."Roland’s fist tightened after hearing William’s words. His eyes sharpened, his breath quickening, before he finally signaled his men to move in.Chaos erupted.Martin immediately ordered his men to retaliate against Roland’s forces. Not only that, he commanded them to protect Serena and Caelric and bring them to him. He refused to let them fall into his enemy’s hands. To him, that would mean defeat."Hiyaakk!"Serena and William fought side by side, doing everything they could to hold their ground. They protected each other even while facing overwhelming numbers. As much as possible, they outmaneuvered and took down their opponents one by one until sweat dripped down their faces."Want to switch and carry Caelric?" Serena asked, slightly out of breath after blocking a punch from one of Roland’s men."It’s daddy’s time to protect his son, darling. Just enjoy your turn first."Serena couldn’t hold back her smile when William winked at her. And that word "darling" made her heart

    "What?"William followed Serena’s line of sight. The moment he saw who was sitting in the front seat of the approaching car, his breath caught. His eyes widened. His heart slammed violently against his ribs.Without thinking, William pulled Serena closer, his arm wrapping around her waist. But when he looked down at her, his gaze softened."At least he can keep you safe.""Keep me safe?" Serena let out a quiet, almost hollow laugh and faced forward again. "Unfortunately, I never really knew the true meaning of safety.""What do you mean, Mommy?" Caelric’s small voice broke through the tension.Serena crouched slightly and stroked his chubby cheek. "It means you’ll always be safe as long as you stay with Mommy. That’s all you need to know, sweetheart."Seeing Serena’s smile, William fell silent. Guilt once again crept into his chest. If he could turn back time, he would never have made her feel this way. But the circumstances were different now. Everything had already happened, and the

    Martin’s body stiffened when he heard his granddaughter’s words. He quickly put on his reading glasses and looked at the nanny’s phone in her hand. Then he briefly glanced at one of his men, as if silently issuing a short command."Graddy," Caelia called again. "What does that message mean? I accidentally read it when my nanny went to get me some milk. I don’t want Mommy to be in danger!"Gently stroking his granddaughter’s head, Martin lowered his gaze for a moment before lifting her up and sitting her on his lap. He took a slow breath, trying to find the right words, something simple enough for her to understand."Your mommy was just telling your nanny to take better care of you," he finally explained, making Caelia’s round eyes blink rapidly."But why do I feel like there’s something else behind that message? Mommy didn’t send it because Graddy didn’t bring her home earlier, right?"Shaking his head briefly, Martin stole another glance at his subordinate. "Your mommy will be home s
