The house was quiet when Alex finished in the kitchen. He wiped his hands on a towel, glancing at the neatly arranged plates on the counter before turning off the lights and heading upstairs.

“Lucas,” he called softly as he pushed the bedroom door open, but there was no response.

Alex stepped inside the room and paused on seeing Lucas.

He was already asleep. He curled up slightly on the bed, one arm tucked under the pillow. His breathing was slow and even. The faint light from the part

  • UNCHARTED PATH    Chapter 222. I hear you

    Fine!" Her scream echoed through the mansion. Lucas stopped near the doorway.Very slowly, he turned. Derby stood trembling. Tears running down her face. Her chest rising and falling. And then she shouted, "You're not getting any divorce!" The words echoed through the hall."We are tied together!" Lucas stared at her. Her eyes burned with desperation. "Do you fucking hear me?" For several seconds neither moved. Then Lucas looked at her with a sadness she wasn't expecting. "I hear you, but when the papers are ready, you will sign it." Then he opened the door.And walked away. Leaving Derby standing alone in the middle of the mansion with the question, “Is this the same Lucas?” Lucas walked out of the mansion without looking back. The cool evening air hit his face, but it did little to calm the frustration still boiling inside him. Derby's words echoed in his mind.You're not getting any divorce!We are tied together! He exhaled sharply. His ca

    Alex turned the phone back toward himself. "His name is Zenith." Lucas repeated it quietly. "Zenith..." "So he didn't even tell you his name?" "No." Alex looked offended on Lucas's behalf. "He cornered you." Lucas opened his mouth. "He hugged you." Lucas sighed. "He touched you. How dare he" "Alex…" "And then he tried to convince an amnesia patient that they had some epic romance together." Lucas nearly laughed, because as Alex put it that way, it sounded ridiculous. Alex shook his head. "I think it's time somebody addresses his nonsense." Lucas immediately frowned. "What are you planning?" "Nothing illegal." "That answer makes me nervous." Alex grinned. "Good." Lucas groaned. "Alex…" Alex leaned closer. "I'm serious, baby. He is a bitch." His expression became more thoughtful. "If you genuinely don't remember him, then nobody should be pressuring you into accepting a relationship you can't recall. A relationship that

    Lucas immediately tensed. "Please..." Zenith smiled sadly. "We cared about each other, Luc." Lucas tried gently removing Zenith’s arm from him. "I'm sorry." His voice was sincere. "I can't remember." "Then remember." Lucas shook his head. "It doesn't work like that." The atmosphere grew tense.Neither noticed the restroom door opening again. Until a voice came through. "Everything okay, boss?" Both men turned. Marvis stood in the doorway. His eyes immediately landed on Zenith's arm. Then on Lucas's expression. His face hardened. Lucas felt immediate relief."Yeah." He stepped away from Zenith."We're leaving." Marvis didn't move. His gaze remained fixed on Zenith. He wassuspicious, protective, and watching. Zenith slowly removed his arm.Holding both hands up. "No problem." But his eyes remained on Lucas. "Luc." Lucas paused. Zenith smiled. A little sadly. "A memory loss doesn't mean you get rid of me that easily."

    It wasn't fear of Derby or fear of the divorce failing, but fear that while Lucas had been moving closer to him… Vince had also found a place in Lucas's heart. He didn't want him loving Vince, not minding that he was Vince. Alex pushed the thought away immediately, because it was ridiculous. Lucas liked him. Lucas waited for his calls. Lucas asked to see him.So why was he feeling like this? On the other end of the line, Lucas sighed. "Then why do you sound sad?" The question caught Alex off guard. He smiled despite himself.Trust Lucas to notice. Trust Lucas to always hear the things nobody else did. "I'm not sad." "You are bothered about something." "I'm not." "I can feel it. You are." Alex laughed. "You are impossible, Lucas." "And you're avoiding my question."Alex rubbed his forehead. For a moment he considered telling him that hearing about Vince bothered him. And that he was jealous of himself in Vince’s personality. And that the thought of Lu

  • UNCHARTED PATH    Chapter 218. Being ridiculous

    The words escaped in a whisper.He stared ahead. His thoughts began crashing into each other. The kiss. The way he'd felt relieved seeing Vince last night. The way his heart reacted whenever Vince looked at him. The fact that he'd smiled three separate times while reading a simple note. His face slowly paled. "No." He immediately stood. Then sat back down. Then stood again and started pacing. "What is wrong with me?" He ran both hands through his hair.His thoughts spiraled. "What about Alex?" The question struck him hard. The person he'd been thinking about every night. The person whose goodnight calls he waited for. The person who made him feel safe. The person he'd kissed. The person that had expressed his true feelings to him in many ways. Lucas groaned and covered his face. "Oh my gosh, am I falling for Vince too? Why does his kiss make me feel the same way as Alex’s?” His voice echoed through the empty room. "What the fuck is wrong with my head?

  • UNCHARTED PATH    Chapter 217. Falling for Vince

    Meanwhile, last night when Derby was getting drunk, the cottage had grown quiet. Outside, the night insects sang softly, while inside only the warm glow of a bulb illuminated the small living room. Vince glanced at the clock as Lucas checked his phone for the third time. “Is everything alright?” Lucas nodded absentmindedly.But instead of walking to the bed, he checked his phone again. Vince noticed, for the fourth time in ten minutes. A small smile tugged at his lips. "Waiting for someone’s call?" Lucas looked up. "Hmm?" "Your phone." Vince nodded toward it. "You keep checking it." Lucas immediately looked down at the screen again, still no message. A faint look of disappointment crossed his face before he hid it. Vince pretended not to know why."Why don't you call her instead of waiting for her to call?" Vince said as he walked over and climbed onto the bed. Lucas's head snapped up instantly. "No!" The answer came so fast that Vince

    Alex could barely contain his excitement as he contacted his HR almost immediately. He instructed her to prepare an employment letter for an assistant chef and promptly forwarded Lucas’s details. He didn’t want any delays, not this time. In less than an hour, everything was ready. But Alex wasn’

    His father’s expression hardened, the warmth draining from his eyes as he shot to his feet. “Derby is the future of this family. That marriage secures alliances you don’t even understand.” “I don’t care about your alliances, Dad,” Lucas shot back. “I want my own life.” His father laughed soft

    By dawn, Lucas woke before his alarm. His heart was already racing, the weight of excitement pressing against his ribs. For a moment he lay still, staring at the ceiling, then it hit him again—he had a job. Not just any job, but as an assistant chef at Benson’s. His lips curved into a smile bef

    The note slipped from Derby’s trembling hand and fluttered to the floor as a dagger dropped in defeat. Emily darted forward, scooped it up, and without hesitation, read it aloud in a clear, ringing voice: “Enjoy the spotlight, but there won’t be a wedding. —Lucas.” A gasp rippled through the
