Todos los capítulos de My heart surrendered to the Boss: Capítulo 121 - Capítulo 130

 During dinner, Mr. Nathaniel was very kind, answering my questions and telling me what my mother was like as a child, but when the topic turned to my parents' escape, his demeanor fell, and his blue eyes darkened."You're not a naive girl. You've already understood that our family has deep ties in London's underworld." I nodded in agreement, setting my fork down on the table."Besides the letters, I also found a photograph of my father with Thomas Moore." Mr. Nathaniel narrowed his eyes. That subject clearly bothered him a lot."James Carter was Thomas Moore's Lieutenant, a loyal soldier to Thomas. We met a few times—Thomas Moore and I never had a friendly relationship, so our Lieutenants were always present. In one of those meetings, we chose a public place, very popular among young people, and

Sunlight streamed through the window, the shadows from the bars stretching across the floor, highlighting the bloodstains. I watched from a corner, hugging my body, knees pressed to my chest. My body trembled, still sore from Daniel's latest beating. The untouched plate of food on the table, along with the gift box and bouquet of roses.Since I was kidnapped, Daniel came to that room to see me every day at varying times. Once, I was sleeping, and he lay behind me, pulling me to him. Of course, I rejected him, which he didn't like at all. Since then, I didn't stay in bed or sleep for long; I became sensitive to any sound and ate only the minimum to stay alive in that hell.I lifted my eyes, watching the small dust particles float in the faint sunlight, trying to remember how long I'd been there. Every day, I thought of Cassian and my grandfather, filled with regret for never telling Cassian how I felt, for not standing up sooner and finding Nathaniel earlier."Will I die here?" I whisp

I lowered my face, covering it with my arms, and began forcing the tears to come. The men entered, and I heard their gasps of shock. I raised my face, already washed in forced tears, shrinking further into the corner. They looked at Liam and then at me several times, their faces completely pale."What the hell!" one of them said, running his hands through his hair. "If the boss finds out about this shit, we're dead.""He won't find out anything." The other grabbed his companion by the shirt collar, his face tense.That was my chance—I needed them to get me out of that place, and the fact that they had to hide what had happened was perfect. I knelt, making my state even more visible while continuing to cry."Please... Please, if Daniel finds out that Liam tried to touch me, he'll kill me," I said in a tearful voice.The men grew even paler. Of course—if I, who was there because of Daniel's obsession, was at risk of dying, then two replaceable soldiers would surely be executed for facil

I was still in Cassian's arms when I awoke. I lay there watching him sleep, as if it were a beautiful dream from which I would soon awaken. His eyes slowly opened, the faint sunlight turning Cassian's beautiful gray eyes into silver jewels. I smiled crookedly, unable to contain my happiness at being with him. My heart pounded so hard my chest ached."Good morning," he said in a slurred, sleepy voice, his arms pulling me closer to him."Good morning," I replied. My face grew hot as I felt Cassian's lips distributing kisses over every inch of skin he could reach.The phone on the nightstand vibrated. Cassian ignored it at first, but the caller's insistence made him give in. As soon as he looked at the screen, his smile vanished. My heart tightened, but he simply returned the device to its place and hugged me again."Wasn't it important?" I asked worriedly."Nothing is more important than you, Lilian." His response caught me off guard and also brought unpleasant memories to mind.I pushe

Even reluctantly, I accepted my role and stayed home, watching from afar, praying that none of Cassian's men or those working for the Hayes family would get seriously injured. I was so confident with everything I'd been watching on the news and seeing on social media that I became extremely confident—so when the news of an assassination attempt against Cassian went viral, I fell to my knees.My fingers trembled as I tried to see through tears and call Jack or Harry, since I was forbidden from communicating directly with Cassian for safety reasons. No one answered; they didn't reply to my messages."Lilian!" My grandfather appeared in the room, his face pale, moving with difficulty.I bit my lip, quickly turning my face away. I wiped the tears and took a deep breath, calming my heartbeat with each new inhale. I couldn't panic; I couldn't lose control. If something had happened, they would have called to inform me, but one thing became clear: I couldn't stay hidden anymore, like a damse
