The Wellman estate was a tomb of silent marble and shifting shadows. Ethan moved through the grand foyer, his boots thudding against the stone with a rhythmic, angry pulse. He had slammed the car door so hard back in the driveway that the glass had groaned, and that same violent vibration was still thrumming in his bones.

The house was cast in a haunting, dim light. In certain corridors, the darkness was absolute, but the architectural skylights and mirrored ceilings allowed the silver moonligh

  • Timothy; My Forbidden Temptation   Chapter 58 By The Rim

    Tim watched the screen of his phone go dark, the rejection of the call echoing the hollow silence of his office. He tapped a restless, frantic rhythm against the mahogany desk.This was bad. Things were spiralling out of control faster than he could comprehend. The carefully constructed layers of his life were peeling back, exposing the raw nerves of a past he had spent twenty years burying.His mind flashed back to the previous night—to the suffocating tension in the hospital corridor. He could still see the look on Chloe’s face, that sharp, inquisitive tilt of her head when the name Timothy had hung in the air like a smoking gun."Is it you?" she had asked, her voice small but piercing.Tim had been taken aback, his heart hammering against his ribs. Paul, that dimwit, he thought bitterly. Paul’s pettiness had nearly cost them the entire game. Tim had forced his muscles to relax, stepping toward Chloe while sharpening his voice into a tone of gentle, wounded surprise."Chloe?" he had

  • Timothy; My Forbidden Temptation   Chapter 57 Impeding Doom

    The morning sun filtered through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Wellman Corporate Tower, but for Ethan, the light felt abrasive, exposing the dark circles beneath his eyes that no amount of expensive grooming could hide. It was 10:15 AM. The coffee on his desk had gone cold, untouched, as he stared at a laptop screen filled with architectural blueprints."Yes, come in," Ethan murmured, not looking up.The heavy oak door creaked open. Carl, Ethan’s long-time assistant, stepped in with a measured, hushed tread. He held a thick brown leather file against his chest like a shield."Mr Wellman, here are the documents for your review," Carl said, placing the file on the edge of the mahogany desk.Ethan finally pulled his gaze from the screen, his neck stiff. He glanced at the file. "Thank you, Carl. Are these from my mother?""Yes, sir. From Ms Madison. She requested that you sign them before leaving the office today. She mentioned they were time-sensitive."Ethan nodded, the weight of

    The mirrors in the hall seemed to ripple with the sheer weight of Ethan’s surrender. For Madison, the air suddenly felt lighter, though for Ethan, it felt like lead."Okay. I will consider the marriage proposal," Ethan said, his voice quiet, resigned to the gravity of the Wellman name.Madison was visibly stunned. She pulled back slightly, her hands dropping from his face. She had expected a war of weeks, a siege of his will, but here he was, offering a truce. "You will?" she whispered, her eyes searching his for a trick, a lie, or a catch.Ethan nodded, but his eyes remained hard. "On one condition.""What’s that?" Madison asked, her business instincts instantly sharpening even through her tears."I have to do something first," Ethan said, his posture straightening as he reclaimed a shred of his own agency. "I have to at least try on my own. You have to give me a chance to sort this out before I sign my life over to Emilio."Madison’s brow furrowed, her mind racing. "What do you mean

    The Wellman estate was a tomb of silent marble and shifting shadows. Ethan moved through the grand foyer, his boots thudding against the stone with a rhythmic, angry pulse. He had slammed the car door so hard back in the driveway that the glass had groaned, and that same violent vibration was still thrumming in his bones.The house was cast in a haunting, dim light. In certain corridors, the darkness was absolute, but the architectural skylights and mirrored ceilings allowed the silver moonlight to spill down, illuminating the space like a stage. It was past midnight; the staff had retired to their quarters, and the silence should have been a sanctuary.Good, Ethan thought, his jaw tight as he reached the staircase. He couldn't stand the thought of an audience. He especially couldn't stand the thought of facing the woman at the centre of this web.But just as he rounded the corner toward the sanctuary of his bedroom, a voice—sharp as a razor and just as cold sliced through the stillne

  • Timothy; My Forbidden Temptation   Chapter 54 The Line

    The elevator doors hissed shut, but the image of Ethan’s dead, hollow stare remained burned into Tim’s retinas. His mind was discombobulated, a chaotic storm of guilt and confusion, but one thing was crystal clear: Ethan didn't break like that on his own.As the elevator climbed back to the VIP ward, Tim’s eyes were fixed on the floor numbers, his jaw set so tight it ached. The moment the doors slid open, he saw him.Paul was leaning against the clinical white wall of the lobby, his fingers gingerly massaging the side of his jaw where Ethan’s fist had connected. He looked unbothered, almost smug, as if the physical pain were a trophy he was proud to wear.Tim didn't just walk toward him; he hunted him. Every step echoed with a lethal purpose that made a passing nurse quicken her pace."What the hell was that, Paul?" Tim seethed, his voice a low, vibrating growl. He was glaring daggers, his pupils blown wide with a rage that was rapidly slipping from his control.Paul stopped rubbing h
