The breaking point of love Ch48: Your Eyes Once Again
Eileen smiled with a rare, crystalline peace she had never known before. She felt not a single shred of regret or hesitation; instead, a newfound energy and inner fortitude surged through her veins.Before her mind could even process the tender ache radiating through her body, she whispered softly:— "Adrian... I didn't expect you to be so intense."A low, quiet laugh escaped Adrian’s chest:— "I was actually exercising restraint last night."She blushed deeply, averting her eyes in flustered sweet embarrassment.Rising swiftly from the bed, she began preparing for the court session. She dressed in an exquisite gown that subtly highlighted her grace and feminine silhouette, letting her dark hair cascade freely down her shoulders. She was no longer forced to tie it back tightly for cramped, stifling public transit—the cheap transport she used to endure just to pinch every penny. Today, she was riding in a luxurious, climate-controlled car. She applied delicate touches of makeup, illumi
The breaking point of love Ch 47: Our First Night
The room was filled with her delicate fragrance. Eileen stood before the mirror, tracing her lips with lipstick as a final touch—accentuating a femininity that had long been buried under the debris of fear and the harshness of life. She tightened the belt of her navy silk robe around her waist, defining her silhouette with a soft, enchanting grace.There were no longer any shadows of hesitation in her eyes; the inner battle deep within her had ended with a decisive choice. She finally knew which man her soul needed, and which sanctuary she truly deserved to rest her heavy days upon.She stepped outside with steady composure, stopping right before the door of Adrian’s room.(Adrian's POV)I was sorting through some papers for tomorrow’s court session, my mind divided between protecting her and closing that damned file once and for all. I heard a faint rustle of movement outside the door. At first, I thought it was just a midnight delusion, but my intense awareness of her presence drew
The breaking point of love Ch46: A Firm Choice
The hands of the clock crept past midnight, and a heavy silence spread across the warm living room. Eileen sat on the comfortable sofa, pulling the edges of her soft blanket tightly around her body. Her new phone lay on the nearby table like a ticking time bomb, as she lived in terror of receiving another message from the unknown sender. Every faint sound outside forced her heart to a sudden halt, her eyes darting apprechanively around the dark corners of the room. Suddenly, the front door opened quietly, and Adrian walked in with his usual commanding presence. He had just returned from his office after personally verifying that Jasper had completed the task in full—ensuring that not a single trace of Fali’s advertisement billboards or digital screens remained anywhere within the vicinity of Eileen's building. Adrian immediately sensed the tense atmosphere in the apartment upon stepping inside. Removing his heavy overcoat, he hung it up unhurriedly and approached her with measured
The breaking point of love Ch 45: The Ugliness of Art
A heavy silence enveloped the bedroom—a suffocating void that settled after those intimate moments shared between them had passed. There were no warm whispers, nor gentle embraces to crown the end as any woman would expect with her man. Zeus remained laid out for a few fleeting seconds beside her before standing up with rigid coldness, tossing the sheet aside without turning to offer her so much as a passing glance. He walked with unhurried, measured steps toward the bathroom to wash away all trace of their encounter.Fali remained lying in place, staring at the empty space he had left beside her, her eyes constricted with tension. Doubt had begun to blossom deep inside her; Zeus—the man who was once overflowing with obsessive desire for her, drowning her in unyielding, possessive gazes—seemed to be changing gradually. That former flame was vanishing behind a barrier of profound coldness and distance. It was a coldness to which she was entirely unaccustomed, and the fragile wounds of
The breaking point of love Ch 44: The Illusion of Love
Two days passed quickly before the flight from Rome landed at Berlin's capital airport. Dana walked along the inner corridor alongside Marco, who had not stopped for a single moment during the entire journey from seizing every opportunity to press his proximity upon her. He courted her with frequent touches, tucking strands of hair behind her ear and boldly placing a hand around her waist as he matched her stride—looking as if he were returning with his woman from a honeymoon rather than traveling with a mere business partner.Suddenly... Dana’s footsteps froze.Adrian stood right there in the middle of the hall with an unshakeable posture. His sharp eyes and steady gaze were fixed directly on Marco's hand resting against her waist.Her eyes widened in noticeable astonishment, and she struggled to pull herself together to speak in a composed tone:— "Adrian?! Why did you come? I clearly told Jasper not to have anyone wait for me!"Adrian’s sharp features did not change as he replied:
The breaking point of love Ch 43: Even Him
Eileen fell asleep peacefully in Adrian's arms, surrendering to a deep, tranquil slumber. Adrian turned off the hairdryer slowly so as not to disturb her peaceful rest, gazing at her with a look filled with awe at her beauty and intense possessiveness. He gently ran his thumb over her warm cheek with extreme tenderness, studying her soft features—devoid of confusion and fatigue for the very first time. He then leaned in lightly and pressed a tender, loving kiss to her lips, brimming with deep affection and desire:— "In the past, the present, and the future, I am ready to give everything I own just to protect you, Eileen."Meanwhile...Jasper sat in his office, tapping his handgun against the wooden desk as a heavy sense of unease washed over him. Ever since yesterday, he had been trying to contact Dana to find out her exact arrival time from Rome, but her phone had been ringing without an answer, driving his mind to draw the worst-case scenarios.In the evening, just as he was nearly
