Chapter 91; Suffocating Tension

The tension in the car was suffocating. Adrian sat in the backseat with Bella beside him, her fingers gripping her phone so tightly her knuckles were white. Oliver drove like a man possessed, his jaw locked as he weaved through traffic, pushing the limits of his sleek black Aston Martin. Lucas was in another vehicle, leading a security team straight to Monica’s suspected location. Adrian’s phone buzzed. A message from Lucas. **Warehouse near Harbor District. Confirmed. Security is light.** Adrian immediately forwarded it to Oliver, who cursed under his breath. “She’s getting sloppy,” Oliver muttered. “She *wants* you to come to her.” Adrian’s voice was razor-sharp. “Then let’s not disappoint her.” Bella hadn’t said a word since they left the office. She just kept dialing her mother’s number over and over again, only to be met with silence. “Bella.” She flinched slightly but didn’t look at him. Adrian reached out, placing a steadying hand over hers. “We’re going to get

Chapter 92; Who are YOU? !!

Monica Langston was a sinking ship, and the world was watching her drown.The headlines were relentless. Every major news outlet covered her downfall with ruthless precision, exposing her illegal dealings, corruption, and the empire of deceit she had carefully constructed. Social media erupted in a frenzy, with former allies turning their backs on her, distancing themselves before they, too, were dragged into the abyss. Her influence was evaporating, her reputation in ruins.And yet, she wasn’t done.Adrian sat in his office, watching the news cycle like a hawk. Bella stood near the window, arms crossed tightly over her chest. Though they had taken down Monica’s operation, something about her silence in the last twenty-four hours unsettled him. She had always been one to play her last card when people least expected it.Then, his phone buzzed.A message from an unknown number.**Check the live press conference. This is just the beginning.**Adrian’s stomach clenched. He immediately swi

Chapter 93;This isn’t just about YOU

I spent the entire night tossing and turning, Monica’s words looping in my head like a broken record.“She gave up everything for him. And how did he repay her? He destroyed her.”I wanted to believe it was all manipulation, just another one of her desperate tactics to divide Adrian and me. But the way Adrian reacted… the way his entire body went rigid, his grip on control slipping for just a moment before he stormed out—That wasn’t the reaction of a man who was innocent.And that terrified me.The morning sun streamed through my window, painting golden streaks across my room, but my world still felt clouded in doubt. I forced myself up, shaking away the exhaustion clinging to my limbs. I needed answers.I got dressed quickly, throwing on a fitted navy blazer over a silk blouse and my favorite pair of tailored pants. Something about dressing sharply gave me the illusion of control, even when my thoughts were spiraling. My hair was swept into a sleek ponytail, and as I looked at myself

Chapter 94;Her real name is

The streets of Meridian City blurred past as Bella walked aimlessly, her heels clicking against the pavement. The crisp autumn air wrapped around her, but she barely noticed. Her mind was too full—too tangled with everything Adrian had just told her.Vivienne Carter.The name lingered in her mind like a ghostly whisper, sending shivers down her spine. The pieces were starting to fit together, but the picture they painted was one she wasn’t sure she wanted to see.Adrian had never been a saint. She knew that. She had accepted his ruthless business persona, had even admired his ability to dominate the corporate world with unrelenting precision. But this? This was different.It wasn’t just business—it was personal. And worse, it wasn’t just his past—it was the weight of a woman’s ruined future, and now, that burden sat between them like an unmovable wall.Her phone buzzed in her coat pocket, breaking through her thoughts. She pulled it out, staring at the screen.**Oliver Langston**For a

Chapter 95; Love is never enough

The city lights stretched endlessly beyond the floor-to-ceiling windows of Adrian’s penthouse, casting long shadows across the sleek marble floors. Bella stood near the glass, arms wrapped around herself, watching the world move beneath her. From this high up, everything looked so small, so distant—like the problems she wished she could run from. But there was no running. Adrian sat on the edge of the couch, elbows resting on his knees, his gaze never leaving her. The tension between them was thick, palpable, as if the air itself carried the weight of unsaid words. He had been silent since she walked through the door, letting her take her time, but she knew he was barely holding himself together. Finally, he broke the silence. "You’re still thinking about leaving, aren’t you?" Bella turned slightly, her fingers tightening around the fabric of her sweater. "I don’t know what I’m thinking anymore." He exhaled, running a hand through his dark hair. "I can’t change the past, B

Chapter 96: Don’t Push me Away

Bella’s heels echoed against the polished marble floors of her apartment lobby as she made her way inside. The night air outside had done little to cool the storm raging in her mind, and even as she stepped into the quiet of her home, she couldn’t shake the weight of Adrian’s words. *"I love you, Bella."* She had wanted to hear it for so long, but not like that—not as a desperate attempt to keep her from leaving. She didn’t doubt that he meant it. That wasn’t the problem. The problem was everything else. Sighing, she kicked off her shoes and walked into the living room, dropping her bag on the couch. The city lights spilled through the windows, casting a dim glow over the space. It felt too big, too empty. She had spent the past few days convincing herself that space was what she needed. Distance. Time to think. But all it had done was make her feel lonelier. A knock at the door startled her. Her stomach twisted. For half a second, she thought—hoped—it was Adrian. But she

Chapter 97; We’ll figure it out

Oliver paced outside Diana’s apartment, hands in his pockets, his heart hammering like he’d just run a marathon. This was ridiculous. He wasn’t some nervous teenager. He was Oliver Langston—confident, charming, with a natural ability to make people laugh. He had faced down press scandals, multimillion-dollar business deals, and Monica’s entire network of corruption. And yet, here he was, hesitating to knock on the door of the woman he had been in love with for years. Diana. He had always known she was different. Sharp, unrelenting, impossibly beautiful—but also infuriating, stubborn, and absolutely convinced he was nothing but a playboy. And sure, maybe he had leaned into that image a little too much over the years. Maybe it was easier for her to see him as a joke rather than someone who could actually be serious. But that needed to change. Tonight. Taking a deep breath, Oliver finally knocked. A moment later, the door swung open, revealing Diana in a loose sweater and l

Chapter 98; it felt terrifying

Diana sat on her couch long after Oliver had left, staring at the door as if it would somehow give her the answers she was looking for.Her heart was still racing.Oliver had just confessed to *liking* her. Oliver—Langston, the man who flirted with waitresses, joked his way out of trouble, and never took anything seriously. The man she had spent years rolling her eyes at, dismissing as nothing more than a charming disaster.But tonight?Tonight, he hadn’t been a joke.Tonight, Oliver had looked at her with a quiet kind of certainty, the kind that left no room for doubt.And that terrified her.Diana exhaled sharply and leaned back against the couch, rubbing her temples.She wasn’t some wide-eyed girl looking for romance. She had seen what love could do to people—how it made them vulnerable, how it *ruined* them when it fell apart. Her mother had fallen apart when her father left, and Diana had sworn she would never let herself be in that position.But Oliver wasn’t just *anyone.* He w

Chapter 99; calm before the storm

**Bella’s POV**The warmth of the morning sun streamed across the kitchen table, golden rays spilling through the tall windows of Adrian’s penthouse. I watched as steam rose from my tea, curling in the air like whispers of the thoughts I couldn't quite silence.Even though Monica was behind bars, even though her networks were unraveling piece by piece, it still felt like we were holding our breath.The calm after a storm wasn’t always peaceful. Sometimes, it was eerily quiet—like the world was waiting for something else to go wrong.Adrian stood by the stove, sleeves rolled to his elbows, flipping pancakes like a seasoned pro. It was such a domestic sight that I almost laughed. The man who once ran international meetings from helicopters now took pride in making breakfast from scratch.He glanced over his shoulder, catching my gaze. “You’re staring again.”I shrugged, sipping my tea. “It’s not every day I see you act like a responsible adult.”He smirked, placing a stack of fluffy pan

Chapter 100; the world moved on

The courthouse was buzzing, reporters clustered outside the heavy wooden doors like moths to flame. Cameras flashed, microphones extended toward anyone who even looked like they had something to say. But inside the Langston Enterprise boardroom-turned-war room, silence reigned.Adrian stood by the window, his arms crossed over his chest as he watched the chaos on the news screen. The live broadcast showed Monica being escorted into the courthouse, her expression unreadable behind large sunglasses and an expensive blazer that screamed defiance.Bella sat on the couch, her laptop open in front of her, though she hadn't typed anything for the past ten minutes. She was watching Adrian instead—studying the sharp cut of his jaw, the way tension rolled through his body like waves. He’d barely spoken that morning, save for the briefest exchange over coffee.The past few weeks had been war.But they’d finally won.The evidence Bella had uncovered—along with Oliver’s unexpected yet brilliant tec
