***Vivienne's POV***

I stood rooted to the spot, my thoughts still tangled with the news report I had watched only moments ago.

"Didn't you go to the hospital?" I finally asked. "Why didn't you have your injuries treated while you were there?"

Alexander looked at me quietly before replying, "Who told you I went to the hospital?"

"The news said both victims were taken there for treatment."

"I wasn't one of them."

Seeing that I remained motionless, he repeated in a calm voice, "Vivienne, come ove

    ***Writer's POV***Delilah returned home and casually tossed her handbag onto the living room sofa.Miles Blackwood was nowhere to be seen. She did not need to guess where he was. He was probably entertaining another woman instead of coming home.A few moments later, Miles' secretary walked into the house carrying a thick file."Good evening, ma'am," he greeted politely."Miles isn't home," Delilah replied without much interest."I know. Mr. Blackwood asked me to leave this file in his study.""Oh."Delilah gave a distracted nod.The secretary headed upstairs.As he reached the staircase, Delilah suddenly called after him."What's in the file?"The question caught him off guard.Knowing Miles rarely involved himself in company affairs, she found it strange that an important document had been delivered to the house instead of the office.The secretary hesitated before discreetly moving the file behind his back."It's nothing important, ma'am. Just a routine document."Delilah narrowed

    ***Writer's POV***Eliza remained in Isabella's hospital room for a while before finally deciding to leave.When she reached the ground floor, she noticed Jane standing beside a black sedan in the parking area, as though she had been waiting for someone.The moment Jane saw her, she raised a hand with a polite smile and walked over."Miss Eliza, I'd like to speak with you for a moment. Do you have some time?" Jane asked.A few minutes later, they were seated in a quiet corner of a nearby café. A cup of coffee rested in front of each of them, but neither woman touched it.Eliza folded her arms across her chest and looked at Jane cautiously."Go ahead. What do you want to talk about?"Jane smiled calmly before speaking."CEO Ashford asked me to pass a message on to you."She paused briefly before continuing."There's nothing wrong with being ambitious. However, ambition without the strength to support it will only bring disaster upon yourself."Eliza's expression froze."I don't underst

"Why didn't you have your injuries treated while you were there?"Alexander looked at me quietly before replying, "Who told you I went to the hospital?""The news said both victims were taken there for treatment.""I wasn't one of them."Seeing that I remained motionless, he repeated in a calm voice, "Vivienne, come over here and help me."My eyes drifted over the wounds on his shoulder and arm. Besides the knife cuts, there were bruises scattered across his body, evidence of a violent struggle.For a brief moment, my heart wavered.No matter how much I wanted to stay indifferent, I could not completely suppress the concern rising inside me.After a long silence, I finally spoke."You should still go to the hospital. Those wounds need proper treatment."He lowered his eyes."There are too many people there."A

    ***Alexander's POV***Late that night, the black Porsche Cayenne rolled silently into the underground parking garage beneath the hotel where the Empire of Shadows production team was staying.James pulled the car to a smooth stop before turning slightly in his seat."Sir, we've arrived."I had been resting with my eyes closed throughout the drive. At his voice, I gave a quiet hum in response but remained where I was.A couple of minutes later, I slowly opened my eyes and reached into the inner pocket of my suit jacket for my phone. After unlocking the screen, I dialed a familiar number.The call was answered after only a few rings."Alexander?"Her sleepy voice carried a trace of surprise."I'm downstairs at your hotel," I said calmly.Ever since I had arranged for bodyguards to watch over Isabella, she had understood that pretending to have another episode would no longer bring me to her side. Realizing she could no longer manipulate the situation, she had behaved as though her condi

    ***Alexander's POV***When Maximus pushed open the door to the private room, his eyes swept across the room before settling on me. Seeing that I was alone, he quietly closed the door behind him and walked over to the table.His gaze landed on the empty liquor bottle."Did you and Vivienne fight?" he asked.I didn't answer.Instead, I lazily reached for the bottle, poured another glass, and emptied it in one swallow.Before I could pour another, Maximus grabbed the bottle and pulled it out of my reach.I slowly turned to look at him and stretched out my hand."Give it back," I muttered.He looked at me without moving."Did you call me here just to watch you drink yourself unconscious? I'm not interested. If that's all you want, I'll leave."My hand slowly fell back onto my knee.The strength seemed to drain from my entire body as I slumped against the sofa. I leaned my head back and closed my eyes, trying to hide the exhaustion that had settled deep inside me. The dark circles beneath
