Lyvanne's POV… Kelvin stared at Rovan for a while as if he were trying to recall the person's name. Then, he suddenly opened his mouth to speak. “His name is Lucas,” he announced, holding no trace of a joke, “Lucas Morales.” “Lu… Lucas?” I asked to be sure of what I heard. Without any hesitation, Kelvin nodded as we stared at each other. My entire body stiffened after he confirmed my words. Who could have thought Lucas was still trying to hunt me down? Strange. “I've been Lucas Morales' fixer for years,” he explained with a straight face. “I have been working for him long before you ever went to prison.” The room fell deadly silent for a while. Then… Kelvin continued as though discussing the weather. “When you arrived in prison,” he chuckled. “I bribed several prison officers to make sure your life

Lyvanne's POV…As I stepped out of the elevator, the familiar scent of antiseptic lingered in the hospital corridor Well, no matter how luxurious hospitals looked, they all carried the same feeling. Always cold and heavy, haunted by hope and heartbreak.I tightened my grip on the bouquet of white lilies in my hand. I had come to visit one of Rovan's elderly employees, who had undergone heart surgery the previous night. Rovan had been called away for an urgent business meeting, so I volunteered to stop by on his behalf.After spending a few minutes with the grateful old man, I quietly excused myself so I could go home and rest.As soon as I stepped out of the room, the hallway outside was unusually silent, like a graveyard.I paused and scanned the environment for a while before taking a deep breath and proceeded to the elevator.My heels clicked softly against the polished floor as I headed toward the elevator

Lyvanne's POV…I noticed Rovan was behaving weirdly, and I couldn't comprehend what was wrong.Yeeh, he had been smiling since I stepped out of the bathroom, but I could tell that something was wrong and he needed an explanation. Perhaps it's what he saw at the hospital, which he didn't care to ask for an explanation about, that was bothering him.No matter how hard he smiles, I know which is genuine and which is not. That's how long I have known Rovan; for the past few months we have been together.And right now, he was faking the smile, and I was playing along.Wrapping the towel properly around my body, I placed my hands on both of his cheeks, leaned closer, and placed a light kiss on his lips.After letting go of his lips, I lifted my gaze to him, hoping to say something that might help comfort his mind, my hands caring for his chin.“Rovan,” I sighed in deep relief as I conversed. “The truth is that w

Isabelle's POV…There were moments when I still woke up in the middle of the night, drenched in cold sweat.Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Lyvanne's face. Not the helpless woman I had once manipulated. But the fearless woman who had looked me straight in the eye while deciding whether I deserved to live.I honestly thought she was going to kill me that day.After everything I had done and the lies I told Alexander about her. After sending her to prison and after trying to destroy her life over and over again.I wouldn't have blamed her if she had ended mine. Yet she didn't.She let me go. And even now, I couldn't understand why. Perhaps mercy really existed.Or perhaps she simply believed living with my guilt was a far worse punishment than death.I released a long sigh as I stepped out of the luxury shopping mall, several branded shopping bags hanging from both hands.“I should be grateful,” I

Lucas' POV…Patience…That was the difference between a professional and an amateur.Amateurs rushed, but professionals waited until their enemies believed they were safe, not knowing their enemy would be preparing for a more dangerous attack.Tonight wasn't the night. Tonight was merely the calm before the storm.Perhaps there might be a change of plans, though.Standing on the mezzanine level of the Grand Charity Gala, I overlooked the magnificent ballroom through a pair of tinted glasses.Crystal chandeliers illuminated the hall like countless stars, making the environment comfortable for all participants.A live orchestra filled the atmosphere with elegant music to entertain people of all kinds who were there.Business magnates, politicians, foreign investors, celebrities, and everyone who mattered were here exactly as I had expected.Who would want to miss such an event?No o
