The next morning, as Chloe made her way to the office, she relayed the strange call from the night before to Marcus. Though her voice was calm, a shadow of concern lingered.“Marcus,” she began quietly, “I got a call last night. Someone… someone warned me that my movements are being watched.” She felt the weight of the words as they left her lips, the memory of the stranger’s chilling voice still fresh in her mind.Marcus’s brow furrowed instantly, and he glanced over at her. “Do you want me to inform the police? Or should we increase security?”She shook her head, taking a deep breath. “Not yet. I’ll discuss it with my brothers first and see what they think.” She didn’t want to jump to conclusions. But the unease in her chest hadn’t gone away.As they arrived at the office, Chloe gathered herself, intent on focusing her energy on the day ahead. “Marcus,” she said as they exited the car and walked toward the entrance, “could you swing by the research department? I need you to find som

The sun was already dipping below the city skyline as Sofia pulled up to the familiar building, her mind wandering back to the last time she’d been here. It had been over four years, shortly before her accident and the subsequent coma that had taken years from her life. This visit felt overdue and bittersweet.She stepped out of the car, smoothing her dress and heading toward the door. The thought of catching up with her closest friend brought a glimmer of comfort to her otherwise troubled thoughts. No matter what, Sofia had always felt she could confide in her friend without fear of judgment.When the door opened, Jenna, her friend of over a decade, greeted her with a wide smile and a tight hug. “Sofia! It’s been way too long!” Jenna exclaimed excitedly. “I can’t believe I’m finally seeing you again, in the flesh. How are you? Really?”Sofia hugged her back. “I’m here,” she said, managing a small smile. “It feels like I’m piecing everything back together, bit by bit.”They moved i

Chloe and Leo shared a moment of silence, the noise of the gala around them fading into the background as their gazes held. Finally, Chloe found her voice again. “So tell me, where have you been all night? Or have you been waiting for trouble so you can come in like a knight to save me?”Leo chuckled, and his gaze softened as he looked at her. “If I’m your knight, then I’d say you’re one of the most beautiful and strongest queens I’ve ever met,” he replied in a low and warm voice. “Not that you need any saving, of course.”Chloe’s cheeks warmed, a rare smile pulling at her lips. “A queen, am I?” she quipped, raising an eyebrow. “Then I suppose I’ll have to make sure you stay in line.”Leo’s eyes sparkled with amusement, though something unreadable lingered just beneath the surface. “I have a feeling I’d listen to you better than most, Chloe.”There was a flicker of intensity in his gaze, a depth that made her heart skip, and she felt herself pulled in, unable to get away. They stood

“Chloe.”Chloe stood in her father’s ICU room, her pulse racing as her father’s voice hung in the air. She felt a myriad of emotions swirl within her as she moved closer, feeling her brothers at her side. Adam and Francis were quiet, each as caught in the weight of the moment as she was. And then, for the first time, her father’s eyes turned fully to her, his gaze heavy with enexpressed feelings.“Chloe,” he repeated, softer this time, as if her name were something sacred, a memory he was trying to bring back to life. His voice carried a feeling she could not fully identify—somewhere between awe and sadness.She took another step closer, gripping her cane tightly. “Father,” she whispered, the word strange on her tongue. She’d never thought of what she was going to call him, and yet now, it was the only word that fit.The seconds felt stretched as he looked at her, his gaze lingering on her face, taking in every detail as if seeing her for the first time. Chloe felt a flicker of unea

The next morning, Chloe was ready and waiting when Marcus arrived to pick her up. She greeted him with a nod, though her thoughts were still tangled with the unsettling encounter in the study the night before.She had lain awake, the stranger’s cryptic warning echoing in her mind, but she hadn’t mentioned it to anyone—not even Marcus.Once settled in the car, she turned to him with a thoughtful expression. “How’s everything progressing with the finance meeting?” she asked.“Smoothly so far,” Marcus replied, his focus on the road as they drove toward Westbrook Industries. “The finance manager has been collecting files, and we’ll meet with her at noon. I think we’re finally close to figuring out just how deep this goes.”Chloe nodded, feeling both relieved and apprehensive. The encounter with her father had left her reeling, and now, with this new information about Henry, she felt like her entire foundation was unstable.Yet the drive to uncover the truth and secure her family’s legacy
