Carl did not open his mouth.He did not move.His body stiffened under Delphine’s touch, like a man fighting a war inside himself. The warmth of her lips was still fresh on his mouth, but his mind refused to respond.Delphine felt it immediately.She pulled away slowly and stared at him, shock written clearly on her face. This was not the Carl she knew. The Carl she had always controlled, the Carl who would do anything just to look into her eyes, just to touch her skin, that Carl will be jumping for joy now. But he looked different.She knew she had been using him, and she also knew he had known.Yet, no matter how badly she treated him in the past, he never resisted her like this.

For the first time in many years, the Winthrope family had a reason to truly celebrate. The large dining hall was filled with warmth, soft music, and carefully arranged dishes. The long dining table sparkled under the golden chandelier above it. Laughter floated in the large room, something rare in the Winthrope household. Everything seemed perfect for them. Rebecca Winthrope sat at the head of the table, her face glowing with happiness. Her smile was wide and proud. Across from her sat her husband, Brian Winthrope. His posture was relaxed and his expression pleased as he watched his daughter and the man seated beside her. Delphine Winthrope was glowing too. Joy filled her from the inside out. Everything she had worked for—schemed for—had finally fallen into place. Bringing a Wyndham into her family had been her dream for years. She had chased Gabriel relentlessly, but she had failed. And yet, here she was. Life had given her a second chance. Who would have thought that Carl’

A bodyguard opened the back door of Carl’s black car and stepped aside. Carl came out first. He adjusted his suit calmly before turning back and stretching out his hand. Delphine placed her hand in his, and he helped her down carefully, his grip firm and reassuring. The moment her feet touched the ground, her heart began to race. “I’m so scared, Carl,” she whispered, clutching his arm tightly. “Are you sure about this?” Her eyes were wide with fear and uncertainty. Delphine still could not believe that the Wyndham family was truly ready to welcome her into their home. She knew her past in this family was ugly. She knew her name carried a bad record, judgment, and resentment. But becoming a Wyndham was an ambition she could never let go. Never. Carl turned to her and smiled softly. His voice was gentle and full of assurance. “I told you before,” he said calmly. “My parents are expecting us. They already approved of you. So relax and just be yourself.” His words were sweet, b

“Enough!” John’s voice cut sharply through the room. His voice was firm and commanding. The anger in his tone made everyone freeze. Sia stopped mid-sentence, her chest rising heavily as she turned to face him. “Father—” she tried to protest, her voice shaking with rage and pain. “Leave the room,” John said coldly. His eyes hardened. “And I mean now.” The authority in his voice left no room for argument. Sia’s jaw tightened. She turned slowly, but before leaving, she shot Delphine one last burning glare—one filled with hatred and accusation. Then she walked out, slamming the door shut behind her. The silence that followed was heavy and uncomfortable. John exhaled slowly and turned his attention back to Delphine. His voice softened, though the tiredness in it was clear. “Delphine, I am sorry for what Sia said to you,” he said calmly. “She is hurting. We all are hurting.” Delphine lowered her head slightly, playing the role of the wounded woman perfectly. “I unders

Isla sat comfortably on the couch, her back resting against soft pillows. One of Gabriel’s hands rested gently on her baby bump, while the other picked berries from a small bowl on the table. “Open your mouth,” Gabriel said softly, smiling as he lifted a berry toward her lips. Isla laughed lightly and obeyed. “You’re enjoying this too much.” “I’m feeding my wife and my child. That’s a full-time job,” he replied proudly. Her phone was pressed firmly against her ear. John’s calm but warm voice filled her ears. Isla could hear the sound of the sea wave. “How are you feeling today, Isla?” John asked gently. “And how is my grandchild doing?” Isla’s smile softened. “I’m fine, Father. The baby is fine too, very active,” she said, glancing at Gabriel. “The baby has started kicking a lot.” John let out a relieved laugh on the other end. “That’s good news. Very good news.” Gabriel leaned closer, lowering his voice. “Tell him the baby kicked me earlier.” Isla smiled, shaking her head. “

At first, Diana was calm. She sat quietly, her hands folded in her lap, her eyes lowered to the floor as she tried to understand the meaning behind Stone’s words. Of course, she had prayed every single day that her daughter was safe. Every morning, every night, that was her prayer. She believed in hope. She believed that wishing and praying were the only things keeping her alive up until now. But the real question was not if Isla was safe. The real question was where she was. Stone’s words sounded like faith. Like hope. Like a man telling her to keep believing. And so, she nodded slowly, even though she did not truly understand him. Her eyes remained downcast. Stone watched her closely. He could feel her grief sitting heavy in the room. It was thick and suffocating. He knew she didn’t understand what he was trying to say. And honestly, he couldn’t blame her. Who would understand anything clearly when their child had gone missing? He felt something tighten in his chest. Diana

Diana jumped up from her seat, her heart racing with joy. Her hands shook as she pressed them together, unable to contain herself. Charles’ eyes widened in shock, and for a moment, he could not breathe properly. He turned slowly to look at his wife, and they shared a long, silent look filled with disbelief and hope. “Honey… is that really you?” Charles asked, his voice trembling as he leaned closer to the phone, afraid the moment might disappear if he spoke too loudly. “Yes, Father, it’s me,” Isla replied through the phone speaker, her voice calm but emotional. “And I am fine. Truly fine.” She paused briefly, then continued softly, “I am so sorry for everything you have gone through. I never wanted to cause you this pain. But it was necessary.” Diana broke down again, covering her mouth as tears streamed freely down her face. This time, however, her tears were no longer filled with fear or grief. These were tears of pure joy and relief. The weight that had crushed her heart for so

“Are you sure you have him with you?” Stone’s voice broke out through the phone speaker. It was louder than usual, it sounded sharp and more demanding, and filled with tension. “Yes, boss. He is here with us as we speak,” the man replied from the other end of the line. Stone frowned deeply. His brows pulled together as confusion clouded his face. He still could not understand what was happening. His eyes stayed fixed on the road ahead as he drove, his grip on the steering wheel so tight that his knuckles were turning white. And his heart was racing. He cursed under his breath as he drove, then spoke again through the Bluetooth in his ear. “Keep a close eye on him. Make sure you take his phone away immediately. I don’t want him contacting anyone. I will join you very soon.” “Yes, boss,” the voice answered. Stone disconnected the call and released a sharp breath. “What is going on?” he muttered to himself, his voice low and strained. Less than five minutes ago, he had bar

“What is going on?” Stone asked sharply as he turned to his men. His voice was calm, but the tension in his eyes said otherwise. One of the guards stepped forward immediately. “Sir, during the search, we found a phone on each of these women. The phones are now in our custody. But when we searched their rooms,” he paused and pointed at the two boxes in the hands of the women, “we found these boxes hidden in their bedrooms. You need to see what is inside them yourself.” Stone raised one brow slowly. His instincts were already screaming. “Open them,” he ordered. The two women understood immediately. With shaking hands, they stepped forward and dropped the boxes on the floor in front of Stone. As they bent slightly to open them, something strange happened. They locked eyes. It was quick. Too quick. Before anyone could react, both women moved at the same time. Their hands flew to their mouths. They pushed something inside instantly. “Stop—!” one of the guards shouted. But it was t

Officer Mathew stepped forward slowly. He bent down and picked up the two sophisticated guns with his gloved hands. The weapons were heavy, polished, and clearly not ordinary. He turned them slightly, checking the make, the trigger, and the small details on the metal body. A small smile curved on his lips. “Interesting,” he said quietly, more to himself than anyone else. He straightened up and turned to face Magdalene. His eyes were sharp, cold and experienced. “Woman,” he said firmly, “how did you get these guns? Who gave them to you?” Magdalene stood there, her hands shaking slightly, her face looked pale. But she refused to speak. Her lips remained tightly sealed. She stared straight ahead, refusing to meet anyone’s eyes. Officer Mathew chuckled softly. He had seen this kind of silence many times before. He knew her type very well. People like Magdalene believed silence would protect them. They believed that if they said nothing, they could not be blamed. The type th
