Sienna’s POVThe morning had started too quietly for what the day was about to bring. I was seated behind my desk, making notes and trying to organize a few pending files when my phone buzzed. I picked it up absentmindedly, still scribbling, until I heard the trembling voice of my assistant on the other end.“Ma’am, one of our branches just got sealed by the law enforcement agency.”I paused for a second, my pen stopping mid-stroke. “What? Sealed? For what reason?”Her answer was just as shaky as her tone. “We’re still trying to find out. They refused to speak to anyone and just placed the order.”Before I could demand more details, another call came through, then another. Within minutes, every news outlet was already broadcasting it. The words “Knight Enterprises” flashed across multiple headlines on my screen. I could barely process the first crisis when a new one struck. A report that our suburban branch was being protested against by its own employees for underpayment and harsh wo

Michael’s POVThe city lights stretched across the skyline, blurring into the restless noise of traffic and voices. Everything seemed alive except me. I leaned back in the car seat, watching the streaks of light slip past the window as we drove home. My mind kept circling back to Riley. It had been weeks, yet the emptiness she left behind hasn’t eased one bit. Each time I remember that the one person I trusted was behind all this, it twists something deep in my chest. Betrayal hits differently when it’s familiar.When the car pulled into the Gray compound, I noticed two extra vehicles parked near the main entrance. Their license plates weren’t from our household. I sighed. A visitor. Hopefully someone looking for Grandma, because I honestly had no energy left to fake small talk or polite smiles tonight.I stepped out and loosened my tie as I walked through the front door. The warm scent of lavender diffuser filled the hallway. I was halfway to the stairs when the butler appeared from

Riley’s POVI stepped out of the hospital once all the paperwork was done. It barely took twenty minutes, which felt like a small miracle considering how hospitals usually run on their own mysterious timeline. I checked the time and realized I still had a few minutes before my break would end. My stomach growled in agreement, so I decided to find an eatery along the way. I had seen enough of Michael Gray today to last me for the rest of the year, and I did not want to risk bumping into him again in the cafeteria. Avoidance felt like self care at this point.A waiter approached as soon as I settled into a corner booth, and I placed my order quickly. The moment he walked away, my mind drifted back to the same thought that had been circling all day. I wanted to start my own firm. It had been my dream for as long as I could remember. Every time I tried to take the first step, doubt would creep in and push me back, but something felt different today. I was finally tired of holding mys

Michael’s POVThe station felt colder the moment I stepped inside, or maybe that was just my nerves trying to prepare me for whatever I was about to hear. The detective opened his office door and motioned for me to come in.“Good morning, Mr Gray. Please have a seat,” he said.I sat down, and he did not waste a single second pretending to warm up the conversation, which I appreciated more because I was not in the mood to circle around anything today. He reached into his drawer and brought out a mobile phone wrapped in a clear evidence bag.“There is something I found regarding Lisa’s case,” he said.“Mr. Gray, there is something I found regarding Lisa’s case,” he said, then placed a mobile phone on the table between us.“A citizen brought this to the station. He said he found it near an intersection.”I frowned. “Her phone? I thought it was never recovered.”“It was not,” he said. “At least not until this one showed up.” He scratched his brow lightly. “It came during one of our office

Michael's POVI felt that familiar pinch in my chest when Riley crossed my mind, and I pushed the thought aside before it showed on my face.My thumb hovered over the final command on the screen of my phone. Once I pressed it, there would be no turning back. I typed the word start.And the giant screens around the hall all went black at the same time. Cutting off the slideshow of our smiling faces. The sudden darkness pulled everyone’s attention up. A few people murmured. Someone in front actually ducked, as if a technical fault might fall on them.Then the screens brightened again, and a single image appeared across all three walls.A hospital DNA report.My name. Official signatures. The hospital logo. The clear statement of the results. And one other important detail blurred out, the name of the man who should never be dragged into this circus.Ethan.I heard a wave of confused whispers roll through the hall. Some sat forward and squinted. The rest held up their phones and zoomed
