Chapter 50

Author’s POV

Aria sat on the edge of her bed in the Clastu mansion, phone in hand, her eyes glinting with satisfaction. She dialed a number, clearing her throat before speaking in a calm, measured voice, perfectly imitating Camila.

“Hello… it’s me Camila." She said. The voice on the other hand replied triled to her from her. "Wow Camila. It's been a while. How're you doing." She asked. "I'm really sorry for not reaching out lately but We need to meet, it's really urgent” Aria said softly, glancing at her reflection in the mirror. “Somewhere private. I’ll text you the address.”

"Well ok. If it's really that important, I'll be there ok. I'll be expecting the address but I have to go now. See you later Camila." She hung up. A small smile curling on Aria's lips. One step closer.

Few minutes later, she walked into the sitting room where the Clastu family except Adrian was gathered. She scanned the environment and saw how everyone was glued with either their phone or documents.

  • Torn between two brothers: One last wish    Unexpected Death

    Chapter 54Author’s POVThe night after Sisi caught the shadow of a man lurking in her house, she couldn’t sleep. She sat upright, staring at the faint outline of Ryan curled up peacefully on the couch. Her heart was heavy, tangled between suspicion and fear. But as the morning sun crept through the curtains, the man was gone leaving behind nothing but the cold reminder that she wasn’t safe.Determined to distract herself, Sisi decided to take Ryan shopping the next day. Maybe, she thought, the mall would drown her mind in noise and colour.Ryan was the first to brighten the moment. Holding Sisi’s hand, he tilted his head and smiled softly.“Don’t worry, mum,” he said in his innocent voice. “Even if bad people come, I’ll always protect you. You and aunt Camila… you’re my family.”Her heart ached. She pulled him close and kissed his forehead.“You’re just a child my little boy,” she whispered. “You shouldn’t have to protect anyone. It’s me who should protect you.”Ryan shook his head w

  • Torn between two brothers: One last wish    Tough Decisions

    Chapter 53Camila’s POVThe numbers circled in my head like vultures around dying prey. Eight million. It wasn’t small—not the kind of sum I could ever pull together without questions being asked, without sacrifices that would shine a blinding spotlight on me.I sat at the corner of my room, knees pulled to my chest, the moonlight slashing across my face. The demand replayed in my mind again and again. Whoever those people were faceless, terrifying they were serious. And if I didn’t act, someone else would pay.My first thought had been Roderick. His name always split me in two—anger on one side, longing on the other. He had the money, the power, the means. But what would I tell him? That strangers were threatening me? That I needed millions overnight? He’d never give it quietly. He’d question, investigate, drag the whole house into the storm.No. I couldn’t risk it.My mind shifted. Adrian.Adrian wasn’t perfect—he could be cold, distant, a man who carried his emotions like armor. Bu

  • Torn between two brothers: One last wish    The plan

    Chapter 52 Author’s POV The Clastu mansion had grown unusually quiet since the parents left two days ago. But in the silence, darkness brewed. Precillia and Aria had been meeting old friend and dangerous connection in hushed tones, their faces pale with malice, their whispers laced with venom. Ryan’s existence had become the center of their twisted plan. “We’ll end it,” precillia muttered one night, her eyes cold. “We’ll end him… and she will take the blame.” Aria leaned closer, her voice low and steady. “Yes. Camila will suffer, not just lose her name, but her soul. No one will believe her again after this, and Roderick, Roderick will be all mine. The fact am willing to do anything for that handsome man and his wealth shows how much am in love with him.” Aria said with a self prasing tone and a smile on her face. Their plan was precise, heartless. Before striking Ryan, they needed bait—someone who could drag Camila right into their trap. For a while, that have been keeping a ver

    Chapter 51Author’s POVThe Clastu family’s convoy of black cars pulled up to the quiet street, their polished exteriors reflecting the late afternoon sun. It was supposed to be a visit of comfort, of unity or at least that was how Aria had painted it when she suggested the idea. But beneath her sweet expression, a darker satisfaction bloomed.From the backseat of one of the cars, Aria’s sharp eyes caught sight of a figure storming out of Roderick’s house.It was Sisi.Her face was pale but streaked with redness from tears, her expression twisted in pain and fury. She clutched Ryan’s small hand tightly, the boy trailing beside her, his little face confused and tear-stained. Sisi walked fast, her shoulders stiff, her free hand gripping her car keys as if they were the only thing tethering her to the present moment.Aria tilted her head slightly, lips curving into a sly smile. Precillia, sitting beside her, also noticed.“That’s her,” Aria whispered under her breath. “The one Camila cal

    Chapter 49Camila’s POVRoderick’s voice was low, but it cut straight through me. “The last time I saw her like this,” he said, his gaze fixed on the door as though Sisi might appear any second, “was when she was about to jump. That same look… like she’s holding the weight of the world in one hand and a blade in the other.”A chill slid down my spine. I folded my arms across my chest, bracing against the thought.“You mean… she’s dangerous?”He turned, eyes sharp. “Yes. And when Sisi’s in this state, she’s dangerous to herself—and to everyone she thinks has betrayed her.”That last word hung between us like smoke—thick, suffocating, impossible to ignore.The next morning, I found her in the sunroom, the one place in the house too bright for shadows. She sat in the corner chair, staring out the tall windows, a coffee mug in her hand, untouched.I moved toward her slowly, each step feeling like it might set off a mine.“Sisi,” I began, voice softer than I meant it to be, “I just… I want
