Chapter 52 Sienna's POV“He didn’t deserve to die like that, not so easily,” I muttered under my breath, my mind replaying the scene of Lucas lying on the floor, blood soaking through his shirt. I could still hear Daphne’s cries, the terror in her small voice as she clung to me. It had all happened so fast, too fast. One moment we were arguing, and the next… chaos.I remembered every second of that night. The image of Lucas crumpled on the floor, his face pale, barely breathing, was seared into my mind. I’d watched the blood pool around him, thick and dark, a grim reminder of how close he was to death. For a moment, I’d felt a pang of something, a faint, fleeting sense of guilt, maybe. But I pushed it away.I’d called the ambulance, my hands shaking as I held the phone to my ear. I couldn’t let him die. Lucas wasn’t mine to lose, not like that. If anyone was going to end him, it would be me, and only when he had truly felt the full weight of everything he’d taken from me.As the

Chapter 54Lucas's POV“Nightwalker. That’s the term you’re looking for, isn’t it?” Ken asked, leaning back in his chair with a knowing smirk. I glanced up from the paperwork on my desk, caught off guard. "Nightwalker?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.Ken nodded, chuckling as he crossed his arms. "Someone who sneaks around after dark, working tirelessly to keep their life intact, even when everything’s falling apart around them. Fits you perfectly these days."I let out a dry laugh, pushing a few more documents his way. "You might be right, Ken. Maybe I am a ‘nightwalker,’ always chasing shadows just to keep this company alive.”And it was true. Ever since the $100 million payment from our recent project had finally hit our account, I’d been running on fumes, working around the clock to salvage what was left of the company. Sienna’s interference had set us back, nearly destroying us. But now, finally, there was a glimmer of hope, a foothold in the mountain of debt and loss.With the mo

Chapter 56 Sienna’s Pov"Stay out of this, Lisa," I snapped, narrowing my eyes as I held Daphne’s hand tightly. I could feel the tension building, like a wire pulled too tight, ready to snap. But Lisa didn’t back down."You don’t get to just walk away with her!" Lisa’s voice rose, drawing the attention of nearly everyone in the hotel lobby. She looked furious, her fists clenched at her sides as she glared at me, clearly unbothered by the growing scene.Daphne clung to my side, her small hand gripping mine tightly as she looked up at me, confused and afraid. My heart pounded in my chest, anger simmering just below the surface, but I kept my voice steady. "Lisa, step back. This isn’t your concern."Lisa scoffed, taking a step closer, her gaze challenging. "Of course, it’s my concern. Lucas and I are together, and I won’t stand by while you manipulate him using your child."“*M child?” I said, a bitter laugh escaping me as I looked her square in the eye. “Stay out of it, Lisa. You’re on

Chapter 58 Lucas’s Pov The way Sienna had stood her ground, unwavering and unflinching, even as Lisa tried to block her from leaving. Fierce, bold, and completely unafraid. Part of me almost admired her nerve. There was something remarkable about the way she didn’t back down, her eyes blazing with that familiar defiance. It reminded me of why I’d once fallen for her, of the fire that had drawn me in so long ago. But I knew better than to let those old feelings resurface. That chapter had closed. I couldn’t afford to open it again, not when my life was already complicated enough. Sienna was relentless, ruthless in her desire to knock me down, and yesterday had been yet another example of how far she was willing to go. Letting any residual feelings get in the way would only make her think she’d won, and I couldn’t allow that. When I got to the office the next morning, my secretary, Sarah, was waiting with a stack of reports. Her expression was tense, her eyes filled with concern

Chapter 60Sienna’s Pov“Do you think you can just walk away from this, Sienna?” Lisa's voice dripped with venom as she cornered me in the aisle of the supermarket, surrounded by stacks of cereal boxes and the faint smell of bread. “You think you can just take Lucas and expect me to stand aside?”I took a deep breath, trying to keep my temper in check. “I’m not taking anything from you, Lisa. You had your chance.” I attempted to brush past her, but she shoved me back against the shelves, causing a few boxes to topple over.“Don’t you dare walk away from me!” She was practically spitting with rage, her eyes wild. The tension crackled in the air, and I felt my own temper flaring. “You have no right to confront me like this. This is ridiculous!”She pushed me again, harder this time, and I stumbled. My hands flew out to steady myself against the shelves, but I could feel the heat rising in my cheeks. This wasn’t just a conversation; it was a full-blown confrontation, and I knew I had to
