CHAPTER 151: You belong to me

CHAPTER 151: You belong to meOnce again, I awoke to the weight of eyes on me. This time, when my lashes fluttered open, it was Vance that I saw. He sat in the same spot, the same chair that his mother had been sitting in a few feet from the bed. His dark eyes fixed on me with a very intense dark look that made my chest tighten. I pulled the sheet tighter to myself and tried to sit up.“Finally,” he murmured, his lips curling into a smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes. “I thought you’d sleep the whole day again. You've been out for a while. Since I returned actually.”My throat felt raw, my limbs heavy. I tried to push myself up, but my body betrayed me, weak and trembling. “W-what are you going to do to me?”He got up, and cocked his head to the side, dark amusement swirling in his eyes. “Aren't you going to ask how I am?”I frowned. I didn't understand what he was going on about. “What do you mean?”I followed his gaze curiously, as his eyes trailed down to his groin area and I

CHAPTER 152: Remove the problem from the root

CHAPTER 152: Remove the problem from the rootThe door clicked softly shut behind me, leaving Madelyn inside. I followed mother down the narrow hallway, irritation and curiosity already biting at me. She was acting strange when I returned earlier. Now, she only gave me that pointed look of hers that demanded I obey.When we reached the sitting room, she turned, and in her eyes gleamed that unnerving sharpness, and hint of anxiety that always told me that something was wrong. “Alright, mother. If you're going to worry about how things are going so far, then I'd allay your fears right now. I think we’re on the right track. Zachary got my point. Loud and clear.”She waved dismissively, shaking her head. “It’s not that.”“What is it then?” I asked flatly, folding my arms.She took her time, studying me. Finally, she spoke. “Your precious Madelyn is not as untouched as you’d like to believe.”My brows snapped together. “What the hell is that supposed to mean? Of course I know that she is

CHAPTER 153: Lights out

CHAPTER 153: Lights outThe door creaked open, and Vance stepped back inside.Something was different. I felt it before I even raised my eyes to him. His movements were sharper, clipped, his jaw tight as though he were holding something back. It was unsettling. Far more unsettling than his demeanor since he had been holding me here. But it was his eyes that made my breath falter. It was darker, hostile, swimming with a kind of restrained rage I had never seen him direct at me so openly before.And his gaze… it kept drifting, unbidden, and angrily down to my stomach. I could neither understand it nor make sense of it.Confusion clawed at me. I tugged the thin blanket tighter around myself. I finally gathered enough courage to ask him what it was.I gulped. “Why are you looking at me like that?” I whispered, my voice hoarse from sleep, weariness and fear.He didn’t answer me. He pressed his lips tightly shut. Almost like he was trying to hold himself back. Instead, he strode across the

CHAPTER 154: Seen a ghost

CHAPTER 154: Seen a ghost The first thing I became aware of was the smell. The strong, clean, sterile, and sharp tang that didn’t belong to the suffocating villa or the darkness of last night. It was the same smell I had perceived when I woke up sore and groggy in the hospital after my appendicitis had been removed, with an anxious Lenny squeezing my hand gently. My eyelids fluttered open, and I was momentarily blinded by white light. I was right. It was a hospital.I panicked and tried to sit up, but a firm hand pressed lightly against my shoulder. It was then that I noticed that I was not the only one in the room.“Please, Mrs. Blackwood, relax,” a male voice said calmly. I blinked up at a man in a white coat, his features lined with concern but professional composure. “You’re safe. You’re in a hospital. But you need to take it easy. You're in a delicate state.”Hospital. Delicate state. I could not make sense of what he was talking about. The words made my stomach tighten. I slo

CHAPTER 155: A moment of truths

CHAPTER 155: A moment of truthsThe moment I stepped into the room, both sets of eyes locked onto me, Madelyn’s wide with shock, Nicole’s steady and calm. The air was thick, heavy, as though all three of us were standing at the edge of something we couldn’t step back from. Yet, my eyes were on the woman who was lying on the bed. My wife. It had only been barely forty-eight hours, but it felt like an eternity. I didn't realise how much I missed and craved her until that moment. Madelyn’s lips trembled as she turned toward me. “Zachary,” she whispered, her voice breaking on my name. “You’re here.”I stepped fully into the room, and shut the door. “Yes.”Her eyes and her face said so much, but the only words that slipped past her lips were,“You knew. You knew Nicole. You knew that she was alive all this time. Why didn't you tell me?” She shook her head, “Is it true that you're working together—”I didn’t let her finish. I moved closer, slowly, measured, because the fear and disbelief i

CHAPTER 156: After all this time

CHAPTER 156: After all this timePregnant.My breath was totally stolen from my lungs. The word felt like thunder in my ears. It rolled through me, hollowing me out. I stared at Zachary as though he had spoken in a language I couldn’t understand. My lips moved, but no sound came. It was not possible. Maybe the doctor got the result mixed up. It couldn't be. When I finally found my voice, it was thin, broken.“No… no, that’s not possible,” I whispered, shaking my head fiercely. “It can’t be. I—I took the test. It was negative.”His gaze softened, steady. He was too calm, and for a split second, his reaction unnerved me, made something curl in the pit of my belly. “The doctor ran every test, Madelyn. You’re almost two months pregnant,” he said with unnerving certainty and calmness. “Which means…” He blinked once, his eyes never leaving mine. “…you conceived on the island.”Two months. The island. My heart stuttered in my chest. That one time, that night. Suddenly it all came together.

CHAPTER 157: Firestorm

CHAPTER 157: FirestormThe stink of mold clung to the walls of the hideout, and the air was thick with dust and the faint metallic tang of rusted pipes. I hated this place. It was a hellhole, a cage, a far cry from what I imagined my life was going to be. Everything had gone to shit in the blink of an eye. It was like having the rug pulled from under your feet without you even knowing it. The bandage around my head itched and throbbed, each pulse of pain reminding me of how close I’d come to having everything, but then losing it in the blink of an eye because of an unknown person. I almost had everything that mattered. Madelyn. Kade Corp. Those vaults. Now it all slipped through my fingers.I slammed my fist against the rickety table in front of me, the wood creaking under the weight of the blow. “She was right there, Mother. Right there. And somehow…” I gritted my teeth, the fury boiling over. “...somehow, she got away.”I kept wondering who it was that tampered with the lights and

CHAPTER 158: The death of Julia

CHAPTER 158: The death of Julia I never thought it would come to this. Me, Julia, standing in a filthy hideout that reeked of damp and decay, stripped of everything I’d built. Now I was fired. Humiliated. Wanted by the police. And all because of one little, infuriating, hateful little brat. I let myself trust men who never truly saw me, Zachary. Even the monster I was about to meet, Vance. I stalked deeper into the room, ignoring the ache in my chest and the cold air that gnawed at my skin. I had practically lost everything. I barely managed to escape from the office building after being humiliated by Zachary’s secretary. This was all Madelyn’s fault. When Vance took her hostage, I thought that was the end of her. But he was stupid enough to let her slip through his fingers. Now, all hell was let loose on us.Vance and Patricia didn't look pleased to see me. Vance's head was still wrapped in that ridiculous bandage, as a result of the blow he had suffered from God knows who. His ex

CHAPTER 159: The death of Vance

CHAPTER 159: The death of VanceThe metallic tang of Julia’s blood was still fresh and hung thickly in the air. The sound of my son’s boots had only just faded down the alley, carrying Julia’s corpse to whatever filthy ditch he meant to discard her in, and I was left alone with my thoughts. I sat rigid in the old wooden chair, my hands trembling, with the raw remnants of shock. I knew that Vance was capable of violence. But I had just watched my son kill a woman in cold blood. I realised that I had underestimated the level of his obsession and madness for Zachary Blackwood's pregnant bitch. I didn’t care about Julia. The woman had been a liability; a snake, yes, but she had also been an ally when we needed one. And now she was nothing but a cold, stiff body to be disposed of.Yet what disturbed me more was not just the gruesome act itself that I had just watched my son commit. It was the nagging curiosity that had been clawing at me for a while now. That cursed tape. The very one Jul
