Chapter 51 - Damian's Arrival

The café was starting to get crowded. In the corner, Elena sat across from an elegant young woman named Shera, her new partner in an exclusive jewelry design project for the summer launch."If we play on the classic concept but give it a touch of local motifs, I think it will appeal to the European market," Elena said, pointing to a sketch on her laptop.Shera nods. "I like the design lines. Clean, but still has character. And we can play with the color of the natural stone according to the season."They looked serious, immersed in a professional conversation. Until suddenly, the sound of heavy, quick steps could be heard approaching."Elena!"Elena turned her head slowly, and her body immediately stiffened when she saw Damian standing not far from their table. The man looked tired, his face not as neat as usual, but the look in his eyes was full of determination.Shera, who didn't know anything, just stared in confusion.Damian stepped in front of the table, then took a deep breath.

Chapter 52 - Meeting an Old Friend

After the meeting with Miss Shera, which went smoothly despite Damian's chaos, Elena chose to sit for a while in a small restaurant not far from the previous cafe. The place was quiet, the music soft, and the aroma of coffee mixed with vanilla soothed her foggy mind.She sat in the corner, staring blankly out the window. Her hand stirred the jasmine tea without really intending to drink it. Her mind still returns to Damian's pleading face-the face she once fell in love with, now inviting only disgust and anger."Even if he kneels in front of the whole world," Elena thought sharply, "I won't forgive that bastard. Everything he destroyed... can't be rebuilt with a ring and a sweet promise."She took a deep breath, trying to get rid of the tightness in her chest. One thing was for sure, her life was much better without Damian. And today was just a small reminder of how far he had come."Excuse me... Elena Whitmore?"A warm baritone voice jolted her thoughts. Elena turned quickly, and her

Chapter 53 - Nathan is jealous.

The rain was still falling when a man in a dark gray suit got out of his black car. Nathan walked into the restaurant where he had promised to pick up his mother, Mrs. Sonia, who was meeting an old acquaintance. He'd just finished a board meeting at his company, but his mind wasn't entirely there-for some reason, lately his thoughts had been lingering on one name: Elena Whitmore. As soon as the restaurant door opened, Nathan caught sight of a familiar figure sitting by the window. Not his mother. It was Selena. With a man, the woman was laughing softly, their shoulders almost touching. Her hand clutched the cup, but her eyes were fixed on the man in front of her.Nathan's brow furrowed. His heart raced-not out of blind jealousy, but because something inside him refused to take the sight for granted."She said Selena said she had a project this morning," Nathan murmured quietly."Nathan?"A soft, graceful voice interrupted his reverie. Mrs. Sonia approached him with a tired but gracef

Chapter 54 - Couldn't resist.

"Elena, I-" Nathan's voice was almost drowned out by the noisy conversation inside the restaurant, but his eyes radiated something Elena couldn't ignore.Elena frowned, confused by the man's expression. "What is it, Mr. Nathan?"Without answering, Nathan grabbed Elena's wrist and pulled her gently but firmly out of the restaurant. Elena was slightly taken aback by the sudden action."Nathan, what do you want? I still have to-""Just for a minute," Nathan cut in. "I can't stand to see you sitting with that guy."They stepped out onto the wet sidewalk. Nathan opened his car door and looked at Elena with an unusual look in his eyes. "Get in, please."Elena hesitated for a moment. But finally she got in, letting Nathan close the door and sit on the driver's side. They were silent for a few seconds. The rain pounded on the windshield in a quiet rhythm."Elena," Nathan finally spoke up, still staring straight ahead. "Who is he?""Who?" Elena asked back, knowing who he meant."That guy at th

Chapter 55 - Wanting It, But Embarrassed

Elena was still silent. Her face was flushed, not just from the kiss, but from the follow-up kiss Nathan had just planted on her neck-hot, deep, and surprising."Aahh..." the sigh escaped her lips, making Nathan smile a little. The smile of a man who knew he had touched something that could no longer be denied."Elena," Nathan's voice was husky, almost a whisper. "I've put a love token around your neck. You are mine, Elena."Elena turned her head quickly, her eyes widening slightly. "Nathan...""You don't have to answer now," Nathan said softly. "But don't tell me you don't feel it."Elena's body began to overheat. Her heart was beating so fast, her mind was in turmoil. Half of her wanted to kiss back, to touch Nathan's face, to let her lips trace his neck.But Elena just bit her lip, trying to hold back.She raised her right hand to touch the lapel of Nathan's suit, then lowered it again. She turned quickly toward the window. "I have to go inside. Bara is still waiting for me.""Elen

Chapter 56 - Romantic Dinner

The sky was darkening as the clock struck seven in the evening. The city lights came on slowly, and the cool night air crept in through the window gaps. Elena had just finished feeding Alva, while Delya was busy with a toy on the floor. The bell rang. Elena frowned, not expecting visitors at this time of night. She walked quickly to the door and opened it. The figure of Nathan stood there, neat, dashing in a dark suit that framed his body perfectly."Hi," Nathan greeted, with that signature smile that somehow always managed to make Elena's heart beat faster."Nathan?" Elena was a little startled. "What's wrong, you didn't say you were coming?"Nathan lifted a small box from behind his body-a bunch of lilies and white roses. "I wanted to take you to dinner," he said, hopefully. "I've already booked the place. Would you like to?"Elena reflexively turned her head inside the house, towards the children playing. "I can't. I can't just leave the kids.""You go, Elena, let me take care of

Chapter 57 - Almost...

"Nathan, didn't you come home earlier?" Elena asked softly, still in the man's arms. Her voice was barely audible, tucked between the beating of a heart that was beating too fast.Nathan sighed, slowly released his embrace and looked at Elena softly. "Yeah. But you left your phone in my car," he said, indicating the cell phone Elena had left on the passenger seat. "And somehow I don't feel right."Elena gave a small nod, then reached for her phone with trembling hands. "Thank you."They looked at each other. An instant felt like a long time. Time froze.Nathan sat beside her, still keeping his distance. But there was something in the air that was getting thicker-tension, unbearable emotion, and feelings they had been keeping quiet."Elena..." Nathan called in a low voice, almost a whisper. "You know what? I can't stop thinking about you."Elena turned her head slowly. That look - sharp yet gentle, longing yet restrained. In that instant, all the defenses she had built up crumbled bit

Chapter 58 - Isabella's Cunning Plan

Isabella threw her sunglasses onto the floor of the room, causing the glass to shatter. Her breathing was ragged, her face red with anger that had yet to subside."How dare Damian slap me! In front of that bitch too!" she muttered through clenched teeth.She walked back and forth in the room, ruffling her half-done hair. Shame, anger, and hurt all mixed together in her chest. Damian's voice came back to her, defending her... but not for her. For Elena."He prefers that woman... just because Elena gave birth to the Lancaster heir?"Isabella held back the tears that were about to fall, then suddenly her eyes caught the screen of her cell phone on the table. She picked it up quickly, opened the contacts, then pressed a name she hadn't called in a long time.The call connected."Yes?" the heavy voice on the other end answers."I have a job for you," Isabella said quickly, coldly."How much?" the man asked, matter-of-factly."I want you to kidnap a little boy. His name is Alva. He's about

Chapter 59 - Alva's disappearance

Elena's car slowly made its way through the evening traffic. A classical song played softly from the car speakers, calming her mind as she imagined Alva's face. Today, Elena had promised to pick up her son herself, something she rarely did lately due to her busy schedule at the boutique. "Alva will be so happy to be picked up by me," Elena whispered with a smile. Elena glanced at the clock on the dashboard. There were still ten minutes before the school bell rang. Elena accelerated the car slightly, trying not to be late. Suddenly, from the sidewalk, an old woman with plastic shopping bags crossed the street without looking left or right. Elena reflexively slammed on the brakes. Ciiiittt! The car stopped just a few inches from the old woman's body. "Oh my God!" Elena opened the door and got out. "Grandma! Are you okay?" The old woman looked startled, standing stiffly in the middle of the road, then suddenly burst into tears. "Ouch... ouch, my leg! It hurts! You almost hit me!"

Chapter 60 - Finding Alva's Whereabouts

"Why did the CCTV suddenly break down?!" Elena's voice echoed in the quiet teachers' room.An IT staff member at the school looked down nervously. "I don't know either, Miss Elena. Everything was working normally this morning. But this afternoon, the gate footage suddenly became unreadable. It seems to be a system error.""System error?" Elena sighed in frustration. "So the only clue about who took my child is gone?"Alva's teacher tried to calm Elena down, "We're truly sorry, Ms. Elena. But we think that man was sent by Ms. Elena to pick up Alva.""Forget it!" Elena snapped, her eyes beginning to redden. "Don't do that again! I'm sure this is a kidnapping! A KIDNAPPING!"With a pale face, Elena ran out of the teachers' room. Her hands trembled as she pulled her phone out of her bag. Elena immediately called Tamara's number."Tamara! Listen to me carefully. Alva... Alva is missing. Alva has been kidnapped," Elena's voice trembled, almost out of breath."What did you say? Oh my God, Ele
