Chapter 64: Out of ReachChaos erupted outside Raeburn Police Department building.A crowd of screaming fans had gathered. Their voices were blending into a chaotic storm of outrage, disbelief, and desperation. The sidewalks were packed, stretching down the street, signs waving in the air with bold, defiant letters."FREE ADRIAN BLACKWOOD!""THIS IS A SETUP!""AMN'S GOLDEN BOY WOULDN'T HURT A FLY!"Some were crying, others were chanting his name. Many held up their phones, live-streaming the scene, demanding answers.A young woman clutched a photo of Adrian from one of his past films, her mascara streaking as she sobbed into the camera. "This is so wrong! He's an actor! Not a criminal! There's no proof he was in the mafia! Where's the evidence?!"A reporter tried to push through the crowd, shoving a microphone toward the police officers guarding the entrance. "Sergeant! The public demands answers!

Chapter 66: GlimmerValerian pushed open the heavy front doors and stepped inside his mansion. This was once a place that had long been nothing more than a house to him. But tonight, for the first time in years, he was coming home with excitement.After Noelle had fully recovered, he had brought her here to stay, ensuring she would have everything she needed. His estate which was a cold and empty fortress before, now housed her. And with her presence, something about it felt warm.He expected to hear laughter the moment he arrived, or perhaps the soft murmur of Noelle's voice drifting through the corridors as she humored Alexei's endless curiosity.But instead, the first thing he saw was Alexei.The little boy was making his way down the grand staircase with a thick blanket dragging behind him. His small hands gripped the fabric tightly while his silver-grey eyes blinked sleepily under the dim chandelier light. He had clearly just woken up. His hair was a tousled mess and his little f

Chapter 68: Their CauseThe morning sun filtered through the grand windows of the private hall where Valerian Vasiliev's men had gathered. They were dressed in sharp suits, standing in perfect formation, they exuded discipline and power. At the front, Ivan Balthazar stood with his arms crossed, his keen emerald eyes scanning the room. Everything was in order.Then, the heavy doors suddenly swung open and Valerian entered.But something was different this time.There was neither cold intensity in his eyes nor any unspoken threat hanging in the air. Instead, he walked with a calm, composed ease with his expression almost... gentle.The shift in his demeanor did not go unnoticed. His men who were trained to recognize every nuance of their leader's presence, exchanged brief, subtle glances. Even Ivan raised a brow, intrigued.But despite the change, their respect did not falter.Valerian stopped at the center of the room as his gaze swept over the men before him. Then, with the same autho

Chapter 70: RebuiltShe bit her lip, willing herself not to cry.She didn't mean it. Not really.But at the same time, she did.She wanted to run before this place felt too much like home. Before Valerian felt too much like hers. "Noelle..." He uttered in a more careful tone. "Did I do something wrong?"She shook her head quickly, but she still couldn't bring herself to look at him.Valerian exhaled, running a hand through his hair. His voice was steady, but there was a quiet urgency behind it. "You can stay here for as long as you want," he assured her. "Treat this place as your home. If I'm making you uncomfortable, just tell me, and I'll make sure I—""No!" Noelle blurted out, cutting him off before he could even finish.Valerian froze."You're not doing anything wrong, and you're not making me uncomfortable," she continued, her voice softer now but still insistent. "...At least, not in that way."Her hands clenched in her lap as she took a deep breath, summoning the courage to fi
