“Where are you going?” Isabella asked.

“I need to head out for a bit, Mom. If Zayne wakes up, please let me know,” Elmy said as she grabbed her car keys from the nightstand. Isabella let out a long sigh and simply let her go.

Behind the wheel, Elmy’s emotions churned violently. Truthfully, she wasn’t sure yet whether Vincent was behind all of this. But considering everything that had happened between them, wasn’t he the most likely to do something this cruel?

  • Winning Me Back, Mr. Billionaire   185. When Silence Isn’t Enough

    “Where did you go?” Zayne immediately grabbed Elmy’s hand and kissed the back of it. His lips lingered there for a while before moving to kiss her palm. “I was looking for you, but Isabella said you left.”Elmy watched his affectionate behavior. It was so different from how he was when he was with Mr. Tiano, who had just left the room.Zayne rubbed his cheek against her palm. His eyes sparkled, and a smile never left his lips.“Zayne…”“Hmm?”“You…” Elmy paused. The storm in her chest roared so loudly she wasn’t even sure she could say this. “…have they found who did it yet?”Zayne shook his head. “Not yet. The staff who gave the details couldn’t describe the person. Said they were wearing a mask.”So they still didn’t know? For some reason, Elmy felt relieved. But at the same time, she felt guilty toward Zayne for what had happened to him.“Who do you think did this, Zayne?”He went quiet for a split second. His gaze locked onto her face—so serious that Elmy felt like he was analyzin

Isabella let out a long sigh and simply let her go.Behind the wheel, Elmy’s emotions churned violently. Truthfully, she wasn’t sure yet whether Vincent was behind all of this. But considering everything that had happened between them, wasn’t he the most likely to do something this cruel?Her grip tightened around the steering wheel. With firm resolve, she started the engine and drove through the quiet streets toward the Jordyn residence. When she arrived, the staff greeted her, including Dean.“Where’s my dad?”“In his study,” Dean replied with a grim expression. “But you shouldn’t go in right now. They’re… in the middle of something. I don’t want you to be shocked.”“I’ve already seen what goes on between them, Dean,” Elmy replied, brushing past him. Dean didn’t stop her, nor did he try.Step by step, she climbe

  • Winning Me Back, Mr. Billionaire   183. Betrayal Runs in Blood

    “Zayne’s been taken to the hospital,” Mr. Tiano said over the phone.Elmy didn’t react right away. For a split second, her brain refused to process the words—until the glass slipped from her hand.It shattered on the floor.Her world seemed to stop. Even her heartbeat.The sound of breaking glass made Gianna and Isabella, who had been cooking together in the kitchen, turn around. Elmy stood frozen.So her gut feeling had been right. Something had happened to Zayne.The shards scattered across the floor. Some cut into her feet, but she didn’t care. She quickly got up from her chair. Her head was filled with alarms. The image of Zayne being stabbed by Ray flashed back into her mind.A loud ringing echoed in her ears, like a warning.Without saying a word, Elmy rushed out. But—“Where are you going? Oh my God, Elmy, your foot is bleeding,” Isabella scolded. She grabbed Elmy’s arm, forcing her to stop for a moment. “What’s wrong with you, huh? You’re hurt—why aren’t you taking care of you

  • Winning Me Back, Mr. Billionaire   182. When Rivals Don’t Play Fair

    “How do I look?” Zayne asked, standing in front of Mr. Tiano.If it were Gion, with his big mouth, he would’ve already made a blunt comment about Zayne’s appearance. But Mr. Tiano was different. The middle-aged man simply nodded and gave a thumbs-up.No sarcastic remarks like: your tie doesn’t match, why is your suit wrinkled, didn’t you comb your hair?—none of that.Maybe Zayne’s ears would be safe now, but honestly… he kind of missed Gion. That guy was probably off enjoying himself with some sexy women in Hawaii.Maybe.Or maybe not.Forget about Gion.Zayne grabbed his briefcase and walked out of the lobby with Mr. Tiano. His important meeting with top executives was being held at a five-star hotel. He kept adjusting his suit over and over again before getting into the car with Mr. Tiano.He exhaled repeatedly, but it did nothing to ease the weight sitting in his chest. This kind of situation was nothing new to him, yet for some reason, he didn’t feel as calm as usual today.“What

  • Winning Me Back, Mr. Billionaire   181. Shattered Ties

    Elmy rushed down from the second floor and wrapped her arms around Isabella, who was trembling in fear. Beneath her composed exterior, Elmy knew her mother was just as terrified of Vincent’s uncontrollable rage.“Dad, that’s enough!” Elmy said firmly. The fear inside her vanished, replaced by a single thought—get these two out, now. For a brief moment, she glanced at Michella, who was looking away, clearly unwilling to get involved.“What are you even doing here? Isn’t it enough that you already have that stepdaughter with you?” Elmy emphasized each word.Vincent clenched his fists across the room. His teeth ground together, his face flushed red, and the faint smell of alcohol lingered in the air. He was drunk—completely consumed by his emotions.“What the hell is your husband doing? He stole Mr. Huang from me.” Vincent took a step forward, and Elmy instinctively stepped back, shielding Isabella. “Do you even know? I was supposed to be the one wor

  • Winning Me Back, Mr. Billionaire   180. A Night That Won’t End

    “Zayne…” Elmy’s voice sounded calm—for someone who had just seen her husband holding another woman’s child.Zayne turned around, still carrying the baby in his arms. “You’re here already?”“Yeah. I came because I saw you playing with the baby,” she said.Her husband smiled brightly. There was a clear sparkle in his eyes as he gently waved the baby’s hand toward Elmy. “Say hi to Auntie Elmy…” Zayne said softly, moving the baby’s tiny hand as if the child was greeting her.The smile on Elmy’s lips was forced. She knew that if she didn’t, her feelings would be far too obvious to Zayne. Besides, she didn’t want to ruin his mood.“What’s his name?”Zayne stepped closer. “His name’s Theo, and over there is his mother—”“Jane,” Elmy cut in quickly. “Dennis said she’s your new manager.”Her gaze shifted toward Jane, who was still standing a short distance away. The woman gave a gentle nod, her movements graceful and soft. There was something feminine and maternal about her. And what struck El

    “Tea, Zayne?” Sunny offered, lifting the teapot toward the empty mug.Zayne shook his head. There was something he was waiting for this morning—a habit that had slowly faded. His gaze shifted to Gianna, who had just finished placing toast onto a plate.“Where’s my wife, Gianna?” he asked, puzzled.

  • Winning Me Back, Mr. Billionaire   13. Can We End This?

    “Then let’s head home,” Zayne said decisively.Sunny, with what looked like a clingy gesture—or maybe that was just how Elmy saw it—touched Zayne’s arm to stop him. She tilted her chin toward her plate, then at the untouched dessert.A perfectly reasonable excuse to keep him there.“Go ahead, finis

  • Winning Me Back, Mr. Billionaire   12. A Bitter Heart

    “Zayne!” Elmy shouted as she grabbed whatever was within reach—a towel. Without mercy, she threw it at Zayne’s face and ran out of the bedroom.Her chest rose and fell rapidly as she collapsed onto the sofa, restless and shaken. When she heard the soft clicking of low heels approaching, Elmy looked

    “Terrible.”Sebastian looked up with a tired groan, pushing the papers on his desk aside in clear dissatisfaction. Slowly, he turned to Elmy, who had been watching his reaction with a blank stare.Sebastian’s comment about the designs she had chosen passed by like the wind. For some reason, all she
