LOGIN“Are you sure you want to come?”
Svanna didn’t know why Nightroe had to ask the same thing over and over. Perhaps the man was unsure of how he would handle his feelings once Hendri’s punishment began.She wouldn’t miss this opportunity. At least for Svanna, it was important. She wanted to know what kind of punishment Hendri deserved after the crimes he’d committed in secret.“I’m absolutely sure,” she added, smiling at Nightroe. Hoping he wouldn’t keep her at home.However, foThe entire Sullivan family had gathered at the same event. However, there was one person who caught Svanna’s attention the most. Nightroe had seemed restless ever since they arrived, as if he were mulling over something but also waiting for the perfect moment to address it.“What’s wrong with you?” she finally asked.Nightroe glanced at her briefly. He made no attempt to say anything. Only a faint smile. Svanna looked at the man seriously, though she couldn’t deny that the children’s well-being was the most important thing she had to keep in mind.When she spoke with Nightroe that day—indeed—she hadn’t planned on bringing the quadruplets just to make Lightroe feel more desperate. However, something inside her truly objected to leaving the children for too long.After all, Svanna already had a hunch there would be a long series of activities, considering how much Russol Sullivan valued tradition.“Finally, someone’s here.”Nightroe’s deep voice filled the sudd
“Are you sure you want to come?”Svanna didn’t know why Nightroe had to ask the same thing over and over.

She wanted to know what kind of punishment Hendri deserved after the crimes he’d committed in secret.“I’m absolutely sure,” she added, smiling at Nightroe. Hoping he wouldn’t keep her at home.However, for a moment, those sapphire eyes stared as if weighing something.Svanna didn’t want to hear it if Nightroe suddenly objected, so she immediately clung tightly to her husband’s arm. They were about to embark on a journey to where Hendri was currently being held.Thankfully, Nightroe didn’t say a word. Just as they happened to arrive at the front yard of the house, the man opened the car door. There were still many things they needed to discuss together, and Svanna was truly waiting for Ni
It felt like something was different. Svanna was still staring at Nightroe, while the man looked down as if trying to hide his guilt at having to make such a sudden decision here.“Looks like you’re out of luck, Sweetheart. Your husband chose his sister-in-law,” Hendri’s voice echoed as his men untied the ropes binding Cochette—who immediately ran toward Nightroe.Her husband had given her a signal, and it seemed Cochette understood she had to leave this old warehouse immediately.It was just the some of them now. Svanna felt a wave of fear wash over her as the gun remained pointed right at her.“Where’s my money?”Hendri began demanding payment. Svanna had no idea what kind of game Nightroe was playing. Coincidentally, the man glanced at one of the men behind him, then said, “I need my phone to transfer the money.”Perhaps he needed Hendri’s permission, and when the mastermind behind this kidnapping gave his consent, the phone was immediately handed back to
“Your husband agreed to come here right away. He must really love you, doesn’t he?”Svanna unconsciously closed her eyes after hearing the man’s words. She and Cochette were tied to wooden chairs. They were in an old warehouse. It all seemed to be happening so fast.Nightroe....Truly, Svanna didn’t want that man to come alone and put his own life in danger. For God’s sake; Nightroe had just woken up from a coma, but now he had to face a huge problem.This man—Hendri... from what she’d gathered from overheard conversations here, he was clearly targeting Nightroe in any way possible. Svanna didn’t know what the main motivation was that ultimately led Hendri to orchestrate a kidnapping like this, but truly; she still hoped Nightroe wouldn’t be reckless enough to come alone.Indeed, there weren’t as many of them as she’d imagined. Still, they were armed, and the threat felt all the more real.The mere thought of gunfire made every nerve in Svanna’s body suddenly
“Are you sure Nightroe won’t get mad that you left without his permission?” Cochette kept asking the same thing over and over. Sometimes it made Svanna feel uneasy having to think about Nightroe’s reaction, but on the other hand, she was also pretty sure he wouldn’t overreact. They were only going out for a short while; to do some shopping; then they’d come home. “You don’t need to worry. Nightroe isn’t home. He’s already back to being busy with his activities outside.” Truth be told, Svanna wanted Nightroe to rest until he was fully recovered, but what could she say? He was too stubborn and always insisted that everything would be fine, so she gave in. At least Nightroe had promised it wouldn’t be long. Likewise, Svanna would be home before he returned. So everything would be fine. She immediately gave Cochette instructions so they could refocus on their original goal. Everything they needed was right here: ingredients and kitchen equipment. Coch
It felt like something new to return to this luxurious mansion with her husband. They had finished getting ready in the bathroom, and now it was time to see the children.Svanna didn’t know what made Nightroe freeze the moment they opened the door to the children’s room. Perhaps it was because the quadruplets turned their heads quickly when they heard the sound.Their faces were absolutely adorable.“What’s wrong with you, Nightroe?” Svanna asked after feeling that Nightroe had been silent for too long.There was no answer. Instead, the man looked at her skeptically.“Nightroe?” Svanna called out slowly. She had intended to wave her hand in front of Nightroe, but the man suddenly hugged her tightly.Well, this was strange. She hadn’t realized that meeting the children would bring out a different side of Nightroe.“What’s wrong with you?” she asked again. This time, she felt the moment when Nightroe leaned in to rest his face in the crook of her neck.
"We're here, Ms."Probably lost in her own thoughts, Svanna was almost oblivious to the situation around her. She blinked quickly, then made preparations to get off before Alex suddenly said, "I'll wait in the parking lot, Ms." There was no protest. Svanna just gave a small nod. It was t
"What makes you think I'm telling lies?" Svanna asked back. She's pretty sure something was wrong. Something was robbing the truth between them, and it seemed that the information at the top of Nightroe's head was clouded by an odd lie."What did you expect? You think there's something wrong
"What I heard is that he's a donor to this big hospital. So, I think it's his duty to be here." Her father was still filled with positive thoughts about the man. If only Svanna had never known about Yohanna's presence in the same hospital, perhaps she too would have been bombarded with simil
The Mediterranean Sea was often an object of anticipation in Svanna's mind. The calm, the surface glistening in the sunlight, and the most impressive part, the sweep of the wind—the feeling of slapping her face was the most precious image—made her feel more at home, even though she could not igno
