Chapter 31 (The Breaking Point)

Days turned to weeks, and gradually, it had been a month since Clara started living in the mansion. Evelyn had wanted to ask when Clara’s place would finally be ready, but doing so would make it seem like she still cared — and she refused to give Clara that satisfaction.Adrian would come home most evenings for dinner, but Evelyn never joined them. She either cooked and ate early by herself or had the maid deliver her meal upstairs. Sometimes, Adrian would personally bring her food and ask,“Why didn’t you come down for dinner?”“I’m so hungry that I don’t want to lose my appetite,” she would reply lightly.Sometimes he smiled. Other times, he just walked away.Evelyn dedicated that month to her designs. The Global Fashion Competition was coming up soon, and she didn’t want to miss it. Her days were filled with sketches, fabric samples, and quiet determination — anything to remind herself she still had a life beyond heartbreak.One afternoon, as she walked toward the kitchen, she over

Chapter 32 (The Breaking Point)

“Sometimes I wonder if you really want to keep this child,” the doctor said, folding her arms.Evelyn bit her lip, unable to meet her eyes.“You promised to take care of yourself in exchange for my silence,” the doctor continued, sighing deeply. “But now I think that was a mistake.”“I’m sorry, Doc,” Evelyn whispered. “This baby means more to me than my life.”“Then why take such risks?” the doctor thundered. “You know how weak your womb already is. Do you understand how dangerous this is for both you and the baby? What do I tell your parents if something happens to you?”Evelyn’s voice trembled, but she held her ground. “You’re right. I’m angry at myself too. But I promise—it won’t happen again. I’ll tell my parents once I’m discharged.”The doctor studied her for a moment, then sighed. “That’s better. You and the baby are out of danger for now, but we’ll keep you under observation for a day.”“Thank you, Doctor,” Evelyn said softly, relief washing through her.“I’ll have the nurse c

Chapter 33 (letting go)

Even after spending the night at the hospital, Evelyn didn’t receive a single text from Adrian. She wasn’t expecting one, not really—but the fact that he could completely disregard her still stung a little.Meanwhile, upstairs, the doctor had wanted to discharge Clara since her injury was minor, but Clara insisted she still felt dizzy. The doctor allowed her to stay another night.In truth, Clara was perfectly fine. She only wanted to stay back because she feared Adrian might return home and see Evelyn—then realize how badly he had hurt her. She wanted Adrian to completely forget Evelyn, at least for the night.The next morning, Evelyn left the hospital as soon as she was discharged.“Good morning, madam,” the butler greeted the moment she walked in.“Hmm,” Evelyn replied faintly.“This document was delivered early this morning. It’s for you,” the butler said, handing it to her.“Thanks,” Evelyn said quietly and went upstairs with the document.Inside her room, she reviewed the papers

Chapter 34 (The Weight of Realization)

(💔 “Sometimes, you don’t realize what you’ve lost until the silence feels heavier than her presence ever did.”)Entering the room, Adrian paused, his brows furrowing. He wondered what Evelyn might be up to. For a fleeting moment, he thought of checking on her — maybe she’s still upset about yesterday, he reasoned.But almost instantly, he justified himself. If she hadn’t bullied the staff or tried to hurt Clara, none of this would’ve happened, he thought, exhaling sharply as he sat at the edge of the bed.Just then, his eyes caught sight of a file lying neatly on the table. He picked it up, curiosity tugging at him, and was about to open it when his phone rang.> “Sir, there’s an emergency at the office. One of the buildings we’re working on collapsed last night — one worker’s dead and several others are injured. Their families are here demanding compensation. It’s turning chaotic.”Adrian’s face tightened. He placed the file inside the drawer and stood abruptly.“Keep them under con

Chapter 35 – The One Who Came Too Late

Good evening lovely readers, I sincerely apologize for not posting as promised for the past few days, I got caught up and couldn't escape, please bear with me as I promise to do better. Thanks for your constant understanding. Enjoy the story.Chapter 35 – The One Who Came Too LateAdrian ended the call with the lawyer and immediately dialed Evelyn’s number. The phone rang for a while, but she didn’t answer. He tried again. And again. Still nothing.Frustration burned in his chest. He sent her a message instead.> What is this I’m hearing about a divorce? When did we ever talk about that? I’ll be home tomorrow — stay calm until I’m back. We’ll sort this out. Forget about divorce, because it’s not happening.But even after sending it, the silence on the other end only grew heavier.Throughout the meeting, Adrian found it impossible to concentrate. His mind kept wandering back to Evelyn — to her quiet eyes, to her fading presence in his life. By the time the meeting ended close to midnig

Chapter 36 — Six Years Later

Adrian let out a deep sigh at the sound of her calm voice — only then did he realize how much he had missed her.“Evie…” he breathed, but the word came out as a whisper, barely audible.“Hello?” Evelyn said again, louder this time, wondering if the person on the other end hadn’t heard her the first time.“Evie, what’s up?” Isa’s voice came from beside her.“Nothing much,” Evelyn replied, lowering the phone. “Got a call from an unknown number, but the person isn’t saying anything.” She dropped the call and walked toward her sister.On the other end, Adrian heard the line go dead. He slowly handed the phone back to the butler and sat down, exhaustion washing over him. Just then, his own phone rang. Without checking the caller ID, he picked up.“I have absolutely nothing to say to you,” he said sharply before the lawyer could speak. “Tell my wife that if she wants a divorce, she can come to me in person to discuss it. Other than that, I’m sorry, Mr.—whatever your name is—I can’t help you

Chapter 37 (The Return)

“Grandma!” the kids yelled the moment they stepped out of the car at the Montgomery manor.“Eliana! Ethan!” Mrs. Montgomery screamed in excitement, rushing to hug her grandchildren.Six years ago, no one had expected Evelyn to be pregnant with twins — even the scans hadn’t revealed it. It came as a surprise just two weeks before her due date that she was carrying two babies. Mrs. Montgomery had traveled immediately after hearing the news to support her daughter, and now, watching Eliana and Ethan grow into such beautiful children felt like a true blessing.Ethan slowly slipped out of her hug. He had never been one to show affection easily.“He’s just like his father,” Mrs. Montgomery whispered to Evelyn, who only gave a faint shrug.“Grandma, carry me,” Eliana said, pouting as she wrapped her arms around her grandmother’s neck.“No way, young lady. Grandma won’t be doing that,” Evelyn said gently, prying Eliana from her grandmother’s embrace.“Let’s go inside. Lunch is almost ready,”

Chapter 38

“Hey! Stop right there! Who are you?”The security guard’s voice echoed across the dimly lit parking lot of Nexus Corporation.A small figure in a black hoodie paused but didn’t turn immediately. Instead, he tilted his head slightly — as if amused by the question. His hands stayed tucked in his pockets, calm and composed, not the least bit threatened.“I said stop!” the guard barked again, taking a few cautious steps forward.The boy finally turned around. His hood slipped back just enough to reveal sharp, intelligent eyes that seemed far too mature for his age. A faint smirk tugged at his lips.“I’m just looking around,” he said coolly, his voice calm. “Or is that prohibited?” He added, his tone playful. “Nice place you’ve got here. Though your security…” His gaze lifted toward the surveillance cameras above. “…could use a little work.”Before the guard could respond, every light in the parking lot flickered — once, twice — then went completely dark.“What the—” the guard muttered, f

Chapter 39 (Crossed Paths)

Evelyn and Eliana decided to stop by for a late-night snack. Ethan wasn’t with them — he was never much of the outgoing type.After eating, Eliana’s attention was caught by a pink gown displayed in the boutique across the street. Its soft, flowery design stood out beautifully among the other clothes.“Is this your design, Mom?” she asked in awe.Evelyn smiled softly. “Yeah. I designed that before I left the country.”“I knew it! Only your designs could look this breathtaking,” Eliana said proudly, her eyes sparkling.“Thank you, baby. Want to take a closer look?” Evelyn asked.“I was thinking of buying it,” Eliana said excitedly.“Sure,” Evelyn replied, amused. “Let’s go get it.”Moments later, they walked out of the boutique. Eliana was jumping happily with the shopping bag in her hand.“Let me help you with that,” Evelyn said, taking the bag from her.They walked toward their car, completely unaware of the man standing a few meters away, trying to catch up to them.From a distance,

Chapter 40 (Ghosts in the System)

“I don’t know what happened, sir. The systems suddenly stopped working. It doesn’t look like a hack—and even the server room lights keep flickering,” John said the moment Adrian stepped into the office, his voice tight with panic.Adrian stood at the center of the main control room, hands tucked neatly into his pockets, expression unreadable. The overhead lights buzzed faintly, shadows shifting on the walls as if even the building itself felt uneasy.“Restore every terminal manually,” he ordered, his tone calm but commanding.The room temperature seemed to drop. Every technician stiffened as though they had been caught doing something wrong.“Yes, sir,” came the quick, nervous response from the team.He was about to leave when the screens flickered—once, twice—and then every monitor in the room burst into life with a single synchronized message.> “Phew, that was a close call. You’re lucky I’m still awake, Mr. CEO. You would have lost some vital data.Don’t worry—only I have the right
