Savannah pulled up the number she never thought she’d have to dial in desperation—Charles Sterling. Her uncle. Her last lifeline.She took a deep breath and pressed the call button, holding the phone to her ear. The line rang once, twice, then clicked."Charles Sterling speaking," came the deep, measured voice of the man who had once indulged her every whim."Uncle Charles," Savannah drawled, her tone a mix of false sweetness and simmering resentment. "So, you’ve abandoned me?"There was a pause on the other end, and she could picture him pinching the bridge of his nose. His reply was calm but laced with unmistakable disdain. "Savannah. I knew it was you the moment you opened your mouth." His voice was sharp, carrying the weight of suppressed frustration. "Why don’t you make things easy for everyone—for yourself—by surrendering to the police?"Savannah scoffed, leaning back against the headboard. "So that’s it? You’re telling me you won’t help me? After everything I’ve done for this f

Bentley leaned back in his seat, his arm draped lazily over Nova’s shoulder. She was still breaking into soft, breathless laughs, her hand constantly brushing against the diamond ring now on her finger as if to confirm it was real. The helicopter soared above the landscape, the cityscape below twinkling like stars against the setting sun.Bentley’s phone buzzed. He glanced at the screen and smirked. “Austin,” he said, holding it up for Nova to see before answering the video call.“Here he is!” Austin’s voice boomed the moment the call connected, his face filling the screen. His expression was a mix of genuine joy and pride, his grin stretching wide. “The man of the hour! The legend! Did you actually just pull that off, Bentley?”Bentley chuckled, angling the phone to show Nova beside him, still glowing with joy. “We did,” he said smoothly.“Nova!” Austin called out with exaggerated excitement. “Look at you, queen of the moment. That rock is blinding me through the screen!”Nova laughe

The engagement party of Bentley Sterling and Nova Sinclair was set within the hallowed walls of the Sterling Grand Hall, a masterpiece of architecture owned by the Sterling family and revered for hosting only the most exclusive events. Towering ceilings adorned with gilded frescoes painted by renowned artists created an air of timeless sophistication. Massive chandeliers crafted from the finest Swarovski crystals hung like glittering constellations, casting a warm glow across the expansive hall.Guests dressed in haute couture mingled in clusters, their conversations blending with the soft strains of a live orchestra playing from an elevated stage. The hall itself was a spectacle: walls lined with towering mirrors and intricate gold moldings, while rows of bespoke floral arrangements featuring white roses, blush peonies, and exotic orchids added touches of softness and elegance.Servers in crisp black and white uniforms glided across the place, balancing trays of champagne and exquisi

Savannah kept her steps light as she followed the woman in uniform. She stayed just far enough behind to avoid drawing attention, but close enough to make sure she didn’t lose track. The lady’s destination was clear: the parking lot, where she headed straight for a van parked a little further from the crowd. Savannah’s eyes narrowed as she silently cursed the distance between them but stayed focused. She could hear the faint sound of the woman’s footsteps echoing against the pavement.When the lady reached the van, Savannah halted, staying hidden behind a tall shrub. The woman opened the back of the van, pulling out a box filled with supplies, clearly unaware of her stalker. This was it. Savannah’s heart beat faster, but she suppressed the rush of adrenaline, waiting for the perfect moment.As the woman turned her back, Savannah moved swiftly. She reached out, grabbing the lady’s arm and pulling her forcefully back into the shadows behind the van. The woman’s startled gasp was barely

The gun trembled slightly in Savannah's hands, the weight of her words hanging in the air like a heavy fog.But in the split second that followed, something moved between them. Bentley’s body slammed into the space between Nova and the threatening barrel. He pushed her back, shielding her with his own form, his broad chest now facing the gun, standing in harm’s way without hesitation. The crowd collectively gasped, a chorus of shock and fear washing over them.Olivia's breath caught in her throat. Her eyes widened in panic as she took in the sight of her son stepping into the line of fire for Nova. "Bentley!" she cried, her voice breaking, her hands trembling as she held her husband for balance.Victoria Sinclair’s face paled. Her hand went to her mouth, her body frozen in shock as her gaze darted between her daughter and Bentley. The fact that he was willing to put himself in harm’s way for her was a blend of fear, admiration, and guilt. Charles Sterling looked equally shaken. His u
