The night wind cut through Asher’s coat the moment he stepped out of the car, but he barely felt it. The flashing red and blue lights painted the entire highway in chaotic, trembling color. The metallic scent of spilled gasoline and wet asphalt filled the air, mixing with the roar of the river below.

He pushed past the yellow tape, jaw tight, breath shallow.

An officer hurried toward him.

“Sir…sir, you shouldn’t-...”

“Where is she?” Asher’s voice cracked like splintering glass.

The officer swallowed and pointed toward the mangled police car a few meters away. Its front was crushed, the side door bent open…her side. The railing near the edge of the bridge was broken clean through, metal twisted outward as if ripped by a monstrous force.

The river below was a raging black mouth.

The officer took a careful breath, voice low.

“It… happened too fast, sir. A truck lost control and slammed into the car from the left side. The force broke the door open. Miss Ivy… she fell out.”

  • Until The Baby Is Born: CEO's Temporary Fiancee    Rings

    The room did not erupt immediately.For half a second, everything froze, as if the air itself was holding its breath.Christopher was the first to move.“What?” His chair scraped loudly against the floor as he stood up, fury flashing across his face as he looked from the officers to Ivy. “This is a mistake. You cannot just walk in here and arrest her in the middle of a corporate negotiation.”One of the officers remained calm, his posture practiced and firm. “Sir, we are following a court order. Miss Eva Stone, also known as Ivy Marlowe, needs to come with us for questioning.”Christopher stepped forward instinctively, placing himself slightly in front of her, his hand lifting as if he could physically block the situation from unfolding. “She is my fiancée,” he said sharply. “Anything you need to say to her, you say in front of legal counsel.”The second officer glanced down at his file, then back up. “Sir, we are not here to debate personal relationships.”Ivy had not moved.She was

  • Until The Baby Is Born: CEO's Temporary Fiancee    Arrest

    The meeting room was wrapped in a heavy, anticipatory silence, the kind that pressed against the ears and made every breath sound louder than it should have been. The long glass table reflected the faces seated around it, executives from both sides sitting stiffly, papers neatly aligned, coffee long forgotten. Ivy sat beside Christopher, her hands folded in her lap, her posture composed even though her pulse refused to settle. Across the table, Asher leaned back in his chair, one arm resting casually against the armrest, his expression unreadable, his presence dominating the space without effort.The client cleared his throat, glancing down at the tablet in his hands before lifting his gaze to the room.“We have carefully reviewed both presentations,” he began, his tone measured and professional. “And we must say, this has not been an easy decision.”Ivy’s fingers curled slightly into her palm. Christopher shifted beside her, his knee brushing hers as if grounding himself.“The Cole

  • Until The Baby Is Born: CEO's Temporary Fiancee    Bumping into him

    The conference room slowly emptied as the final slide faded from the screen, leaving behind a low hum of murmured conversations and shuffling papers. The clients exchanged polite smiles, nodding thoughtfully as they gathered their notes, while assistants quietly reset the room for the break. The air felt heavy, charged with anticipation and unspoken rivalry.Ivy sat beside Christopher at the long table, her back straight but tense, fingers clenched tightly in her lap. Her legs would not stop moving, a restless wobble that betrayed the calm expression she was trying so hard to maintain. Every second stretched longer than the last, her mind replaying every word she had spoken during the presentation, every reaction she thought she might have misread.Christopher noticed immediately.He reached out and placed his hand gently on her knee, grounding, steady. “Hey,” he said quietly, leaning closer so only she could hear him. “Stop that. You are going to wear a hole through the floor.”She l

    “Are you ready for the presentation?” Asher looked at Riley while walking. The corridor outside the executive meeting rooms buzzed with controlled urgency, voices echoing softly off polished glass walls and marble floors. Assistants moved quickly with tablets and folders in hand, while security stood at their posts, expressionless and alert. It was the kind of morning where every step felt calculated, every breath measured.Asher walked beside Riley, his pace steady, unhurried, yet purposeful. The tailored black suit he wore made him look carved out of shadow, his presence commanding without effort. Riley matched his stride, clutching her tablet to her chest, her mind clearly running through slides and figures.“The third segment needs a smoother transition,” Riley said, glancing down at her screen. “The clients will question scalability if it sounds too theoretical.”Asher nodded once, his eyes forward. “Keep it grounded. Numbers first. Vision after.”She took a breath, absorbing hi

    THE NEXT MORNINGIvy stood near the window, arms crossed tightly over her chest, watching Aurelia pace back and forth with restless steps. The little girl’s shoulders were hunched, guilt written plainly in the way she kept twisting her fingers together.“You cannot do that again,” Ivy said gently but firmly, her voice carrying the weight of fear she was trying hard to hide. “You cannot just walk away like that. Not without telling anyone. Do you understand how scared I was?”Aurelia stopped pacing and looked up at her mother, eyes glossy. “I am sorry,” she whispered. “I did not think. I just…didn't like it here and no one was listening to me. .”Ivy’s expression softened instantly. She crossed the room in two quick steps and knelt, pulling Aurelia into her arms. Aurelia buried her face into Ivy’s shoulder, clinging tightly as if afraid she might disappear if she let go.“I know,” Ivy murmured, pressing a kiss into her hair. “But you have to tell me next time. Always tell me.”Aurelia

    The silence did not last.Jason’s restraint snapped like a wire pulled too tight.“Who are you talking about?” he demanded, his voice rising sharply as he took a step forward, eyes blazing as they darted from Riley to Velvet to Asher. “I asked you all a question. What is going on?” No one answered him fast enough.That was enough.Jason turned on his heel, already moving toward the door as if sheer momentum could carry him straight to the truth. His hand was on the edge of the table, pushing himself forward, when another hand closed around his arm.“Slow down, brother.”Hayden stood there, calm but firm, his grip steady as he blocked Jason’s path. His expression was controlled, but his eyes held warning. He has just entered the house and felt the tense vibe of the house. “This is not how you handle things,” Hayden added quietly. “Running blind has never worked for you.”Jason yanked his arm back. “Do not lecture me right now,” he snapped, chest rising sharply. “If she is really back
