​Crash!

​The tunnel shook violently. Concrete cracked overhead as thick clouds of dust exploded into the air.

​Benjamin was hurled hard against the collapsing wall. "Dizer!"

​Arthur rushed toward her, but before he could reach her—

​Boom!

​A massive slab of reinforced concrete crashed down between them, sealing the passage completely.

​"Dizer!" Benjamin shouted, pounding frantically against the rubble. "Dizer, answer me!"

​For a long moment, there was only silence. Then, a faint cough echoed fr

    ​"They've found... a living relative."​The words hit Dizer harder than anything she had heard that day. Silence settled over the tunnel as Ryan lowered his gaze to the report in his hand, his expression unreadable.​Dizer slowly stepped forward, her voice trembling. "My... my family?"​Ryan nodded. "The forensic laboratory matched the DNA recovered from the rescue records with a recent national database."​Liam instinctively moved closer to her. Benjamin held his breath, while Arthur and Adrian exchanged uneasy glances as everyone waited.​Dizer swallowed hard before asking in a barely audible voice, "Who is it?"​"I'm afraid the report doesn't include a name," Ryan admitted, glancing at the paper once more. "It only confirms a biological match."​A frown creased Dizer's forehead. "What does that mean?"​Ryan met her eyes. "It means... someone related to you is still alive."​Nathaniel was escorted out of the tunnel in handcuffs. As he walked past Dizer, he suddenly stopped. "You sh

    "...Kendall Shank... isn't your biological father."​The words echoed through the underground tunnel, followed by a heavy, suffocating silence.​Dizer stared at Adrian, convinced she had misheard him. "W-What... did you just say?"​Adrian lowered his gaze, guilt written all over his face. "I've kept this secret for twenty-eight years."​Benjamin frowned in confusion. "Sir... what are you talking about?"​Liam, despite the pain in his injured shoulder, slowly turned to look at Adrian. Even Nathaniel, now in handcuffs, stopped walking. Every pair of eyes in the tunnel was fixed on Adrian, waiting for him to explain.​Ryan tightened his grip on the old adoption file. "Mr. Adrian... you'd better explain everything."​Adrian let out a long, weary sigh. "I made a promise to Eleanor that I would never reveal the truth. But before she died, she also told me that if the truth ever came to light, I should let you decide your own future."​Dizer swallowed hard, her voice trembling. "Then start f

  • The Surgeon Forgotten Wife   Chapter 42 The Price of the Truth

    ​Nathaniel slowly turned around as the massive reinforced steel doors swung open. Benjamin marched into the tunnel leading more than thirty Blackridge security officers, with Arthur at his side with his pistol raised. Sophia followed right behind them, a tablet clutched in her hands and a confident smile spreading across her lips.​"I told you," Sophia said. "You hacked the building... but you never truly understood it."​Nathaniel's jaw tightened. "You..."​Sophia calmly lifted the tablet. "I've restored every security system you shut down. The exits are sealed, the lifts are disabled, and the police have surrounded every entrance." She looked him straight in the eyes. "You're out of options."​Nathaniel glanced at his mercenaries, several of whom instinctively took a step back as fear appeared on their faces for the first time.​Benjamin raised his gun and aimed directly at Nathaniel. "Nathaniel Hawthorne, drop your weapon."​Nathaniel let out a low chuckle. "You think you've won?"

    ​“If you want to touch my wife... you’ll have to kill me first,” Liam said, his voice cold and unwavering.​A suffocating silence fell over the underground tunnel, surprising even Nathaniel’s mercenaries. Dizer’s heart skipped a beat. For seven long months, she had waited to hear those words—not because she wanted to return to him, but because a part of her had always hoped he would one day acknowledge her as his wife. And now, he finally had.​A slow smile spread across Nathaniel’s face. “So... the famous Dr. Liam Oscar has finally arrived.”​Without a hint of fear, Liam walked forward until he stood right beside Dizer, his eyes never leaving Nathaniel. “Let her go.”​Nathaniel let out a mocking laugh. “You’re making demands... to me?”​“I don’t negotiate with criminals,” Liam replied calmly.​Nathaniel tilted his head with amusement. “And yet... you married into one. I mean the Shank family. They sold their own daughter. Doesn’t that make them criminals too?”​Liam’s jaw tightened.

"Dizer!"​Arthur rushed toward her, but before he could reach her—​Boom!​A massive slab of reinforced concrete crashed down between them, sealing the passage completely.​"Dizer!" Benjamin shouted, pounding frantically against the rubble. "Dizer, answer me!"​For a long moment, there was only silence. Then, a faint cough echoed from the other side.​"I'm... here."​Benjamin shut his eyes in immense relief. "Don't move!" he yelled. "We'll get to you!"​Nathaniel let out a quiet laugh. "I'm afraid," he said calmly, dusting concrete from his expensive suit, "...you won't." He glanced at the collapsed wall. "This barrier is reinforced. It'll take hours to break through. And by then, our conversation will be over."​The Other Side of the Collapse​As the dust slowly settled, Dizer found herself standing alone.​In front of h

    ​The tunnel fell into a complete, heavy silence.​Nathaniel Hawthorne stood just ten metres away, his hands casually tucked into his pockets. Behind him, twelve armed men slowly spread out, sealing off every possible escape route.​Benjamin instinctively stepped in front of Dizer, shielding her with his body. Arthur raised his pistol, while Sophia quietly moved to protect Ethan’s side. Adrian, however, remained perfectly calm.​Nathaniel smiled. "I've imagined this meeting for a long time."​Dizer met his gaze without flinching. "So have I."​Nathaniel let out a soft chuckle. "I doubt that."​She folded her arms across her chest. "I imagined meeting the man who hides behind other people."​For a brief moment, his smile faded. "You have quite the tongue."​"I learned from surviving cowards."​Several of Nathaniel's men tightened their grip on their rifles, but Nathaniel raised a single finger. "Easy. No one fires... unless I say so."​Benjamin's voice turned icy. "You've committed enou
