June 11, 2024..."Adina, stop!" Vanessa’s voice cracked through the silence as she rushed into the ward, the harsh white lights of the facility making everything feel too exposed, too sterile.The faint bite of antiseptic clung to the air, barely masked by the artificial lavender mist puffing from a nearby diffuser.Adina was standing next to her bed, barefoot on the cold floor. Her hospital gown hung off one shoulder, her arms streaked red.She didn’t stop. Her nails dragged across torn skin like she was trying to peel something off—or out—of herself."Baby, no—no, stop that." Vanessa reached her, grabbing her wrists gently but firmly.Adina didn’t look at her. Her eyes were wide and glossy, as she stared at the walls of her ward room."It won’t stop," she whispered. "It’s under my skin. I can feel it... I have to get it out..."Vanessa’s heart ached. This wasn’t her granddaughter. Not the fearless, wild girl she raised after her son died. This was someone who had been broken."You’re

June 15, 2024.Laughter and the soft clinking of champagne glasses filled the grand ballroom of the Bandillon Expression Event Center.It was an exclusive high-society event. Chandeliers sparkled above, casting golden hues on the elites of the business world.Dressed in an elegant, midnight-blue gown, Vanessa King moved through the crowd with practiced grace, her every step exuding power. Yet, beneath her poised exterior, her mind was set on something far more pressing. In four days from now, she would be presiding over the King Group board meeting she had requested a few days ago-one that would change everything.Eric had to be removed as Chairman. His betrayal ran too deep. First, the revelation that Adina's son wasn't biologically his-from the flash drive left behind by Benjamin Anderson, the late lab technician from Pacific Grand Hospital whom she had met by chance after he was attacked. She had tried to save him, but he died on the way to the hospital.Knowing that he got to

April 26, 2016Pacific Grand Hospital. 10:15 AM For six years, Adina King-Harrington had dreamed of this moment. Prayed. Begged. Cried. Clawed at hope even when it felt impossible.And now—finally—it was here.She was pregnant.Her hands trembled as she clutched the test results, her breath unsteady.A lump formed in her throat, thick and overwhelming, as tears burned the back of her eyes.A shaky laugh bubbled from her lips as she turned to her husband, Eric Harrington, “I told you,” she whispered, her voice breathless, her eyes gleaming.For the first time since the IVF procedure, Eric smiled—a real smile, wide and unguarded.It had taken his mother’s relentless insistence to push him into this process, but now, seeing the proof before him, a wave of relief crashed over him.“You did,” he murmured. His usually stiff posture eased as his hand lifted hesitantly, hovering just above her stomach. Then, slowly, he let himself touch it.It was tentative at first, as if he didn’t quite b

That evening…The silence in the Crown mansion was thick. Too thick.Then—BANG!Eric’s fist crashed against the polished mahogany table, the sharp sound cutting through the stillness like a gunshot.“That fucking bastard!” His voice thundered through the suite, ricocheting off the high ceilings. “He actually thinks he can demand that my wife bear his child—or he’ll sue?!”His breath came in sharp, uneven bursts, his entire body vibrating with restrained fury. “Who the hell does he think he is? Just because Forbes slapped his name on one of the young billionaire lists, he thinks that erases the fact that he used to be a lowlife?”Across the table, Dominic Harrington barely flinched. The older man simply leaned back in his chair, fingers tapping against the cushions in a slow, deliberate rhythm. His gaze flicked to his wife, Mabel.She looked just as furious. But unlike Eric, she wasn’t pacing—she was calculating. And her silence was just as dangerous as his rage.Finally, Dominic let ou

“Over my dead body will you do such a thing, Adina!”The voice rang through the room, firm, unwavering, absolute.All heads turned as Vanessa King, Adina’s grandmother, strode in like she owned the place. Which, in a way, she did—considering the Crown mansion had been her wedding gift to Eric and Adina.Despite her seventy years of life, there was no hesitation in her stride. She moved with the poise of a queen, her very presence commanding the air.By her side stood Jeremy Woods, her personal assistant of nearly fifteen years—loyal as ever. And beside him, Caleb West, friend to Dominic and her late son and also the King Group’s legal director.The air in the room shifted instantly.Adina and Eric sprang to their feet, their expressions frozen in shock. They had all agreed to keep the news from her—so how had she found out?Tension crackled in the silence.Dominic, however, remained seated, his face unreadable.Mabel, ever the strategist, was the first to recover. Clearing her throat,

In his penthouse office at Duggle Global Tech, the city skyline along Randolph Avenue stretched beyond the floor-to-ceiling windows, bathed in golden hues as dusk settled in.The view reeked of success—his success.Ryan Knight leaned back in his leather chair, tossing a stress ball from hand to hand. He was in a good mood.A victorious mood.Across from him, Sebastian Storm—his best friend since junior high and now his lawyer—sat with an amused smirk, one leg lazily crossed over the other.“So let me get this straight…” Sebastian said, rubbing his jaw. “Adina—the same girl who dumped you six years ago—just so happened to get accidentally inseminated with your sperm, and instead of walking away, you actually want her to keep the baby?”Ryan flicked the stress ball in the air, catching it with ease. “You make it sound ridiculous when you say it like that.”Sebastian leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees. His eyes gleamed—part disbelief, part wicked amusement. “Oh, it’s ridicul

The hum of the luxury car’s engine softened as the driver pulled up in front of the Lumière Grand Hotel, one of the most exclusive dining destinations in the city.The sleek glass building towered in the night, its polished surface exuding quiet elegance and secrecy—the perfect setting for a private meeting.At the backseat of the car, Eric turned to Adina, his fingers instinctively reaching for hers.“Are you sure you don’t want me to come with you?” His tone was gentle, but reluctance flickered in his eyes. “We don't have to do it all through as Grandma dictates…I mean…”Adina squeezed his hand reassuringly, cutting him off his words “I’ve got this, Eric. You trust me, don’t you?” He sighed, brushing his thumb over the back of her hand. “Of course, I do. I just don’t like the idea of you there alone with him.” Although Eric had accepted Adina’s grandmother’s wish and reassured her of his support throughout the pregnancy, he still felt unease about Adina meeting Ryan alone.He
