161. Outplayed

“Tell me, where is your father right now?” the detective—Dani Watson—asked as he interrogated Jackson, who sat in the interrogation room. He had asked the same question nearly three times already, but Jackson’s mouth seemed locked shut.His bright blue eyes cut toward the one-way mirror, as if observing the people behind it—including Zayne, who was clenching his hands tightly. For some reason, that gaze felt like it was aimed straight at him, chipping away at Zayne’s courage.Jackson’s stare was cold. Unshaken. Fearless. Just like the man who had once stabbed without hesitation. He didn’t care if it was a hospital or if he was facing the police—he had boldly pointed a switchblade at Amelia back then, reminding Zayne of what had been done to Elmy by his father.Damn it. Zayne pinched his own arm, trying to distract himself from the pain in his chest.“Jackson, if you still refuse to talk, I might have to use physical force to make you speak,” Dani said harshly.Jackson only responded w

162. Not Ready to Lose You

The glass in Elmy’s hand suddenly slipped and shattered on the floor. She stared down at her foot, now nicked by the broken shards. A thin line of blood seeped from the small cut. Dean quickly crouched down, clearing the pieces away.“Your foot is bleeding, miss.”“It’s fine, just a small cut, Dean.”A small cut—but why was her heart suddenly pounding like this? The uneasy rhythm made her chest tighten. Elmy pressed a hand against it, taking a deep breath, trying to ease the strange suffocation settling in.“What’s wrong, miss?” Dean asked, confused.“I feel like something’s wrong… Dean. Like something already happened.” Elmy turned to him. “Did Zayne send you any messages?”Dean took out his phone and checked for a moment, then shook his head. “No, miss. Do you want me to call him for you?”Elmy shook her head. Her breathing grew more uneven. She got off the chair and walked toward the bedroom. Sitting on the bed, she grabbed her phone from the nightstand and checked her calls and me

163. A Proposal Before the Storm

“Welcome back to your office, Mr. Zayne Kensley. I hope you still remember your position,” Gion sneered as he pulled out Zayne’s chair and gestured for him to sit.Hearing that, Zayne just chuckled. He sat down and spun his chair toward Gion, who stood there with his hands on his hips. Zayne put on his glasses and smiled.“You look grumpy.”“Thanks for the insult, Mr. Zayne.” Gion handed him a file and pointed at it. “This is the agreement with Hiro Company. They’ll be taking over full production of the machine. As for the profit split—”Zayne raised his hand, cutting him off. “No need. I’ll read it myself.”“Oh, good. So you’ve finally realized you have eyes. Usually, you make me read everything for you,” Gion shot back sarcastically, making Zayne glance at him over his glasses with a faint smirk.“After my wedding with Elmy, I’ll give you a long vacation,” Zayne said casually.Gion leaned forward, resting one hand on the desk. “Are you serious? What kind of ‘vacation’ are we talking

164. Betrayal in Plain Sight

“What do you mean, Mom? What second wife?” Elmy asked softly, her voice shaky, barely above a whisper.Her stomach churned, like something was forcing its way up her throat. She gripped Zayne’s arm tighter as she glanced at Isabella, who returned her gaze with a faint smile, patiently waiting.Just as Isabella was about to speak, Vincent’s calm, composed voice cut in.“I’m sorry, dear. All this time… I got married again overseas. And… this girl is my stepdaughter. She’ll be your sister from now on.”Elmy blinked in disbelief. Married again? So all this time, while he was abroad, her father had been with another woman? And her mother never said a word about it?Her legs trembled, and she would’ve collapsed if Zayne hadn’t held her tightly. He guided her to a chair and sat her down as she stared blankly, clutching her dress.“Why didn’t Mom tell me you got married again?”“Ask your father why he told me to keep it a secret,” Isabella replied firmly.She walked back to the table and sat

165. No Way Out

“Why would you give me a choice like this, Dad?” Elmy asked sharply. Her hands were clenched tight, trembling as her nails dug painfully into her palms.“I just want to get this over with as soon as possible. Michella needs a place. She has no one else but me now,” Vincent explained, his voice softening as if that alone would make Elmy give in. But it didn’t. Elmy shook her head, unable to accept either his words or the situation she was in.Quietly, she pinched her thigh, trying to convince herself this was just a dream—something she could wake up from. But no matter how hard she pinched, she was still there, standing in front of Vincent and Michella.Amid the confusion, she felt Zayne gently rubbing her shoulder, trying to calm her down.“Don’t panic. Think this through.”How could she think? How was she supposed to choose between two things that meant so much to her?Her lips trembled as she lowered her gaze to her expensive heels. When she looked up again, Vincent stepped closer,

166. The Same Feeling Again

“You need to keep your distance from Michella.” Sitting in front of the vanity mirror, Elmy began taking off her jewelry. Her eyes slowly flicked toward their reflection—herself, and Zayne standing behind her, unbuttoning his shirt.“Why? You think she’s going to steal me from you?” Zayne scoffed.Elmy clicked her tongue in annoyance and turned slightly. “Stop joking. I’m serious, Zayne.” For a moment, she looked down at the dress she was wearing. “What happened before was enough to teach me a lesson,” she muttered.Zayne finished taking off his shirt and tossed it into the laundry basket. In a few long strides, he closed the distance and wrapped his arms around her from behind.“What are you even worried about? I’m not going to look at Michella,” he said confidently. But Elmy still felt uneasy. She lowered her gaze, holding onto the back of his hand. “Besides, she’s nothing special, El.”“She’s pretty.”“But you’re prettier.”“Such a flirt.”Zayne rested his chin on her shoulder, sta

167. Second Chances

Zayne realized Elmy was staring at him. Her hand reached up, brushing the hair off his forehead. When her slender fingers traced along his cheek, Zayne caught her wrist and pulled her into his chest.“You smell different, babe,” Zayne murmured, slowly opening his sleepy eyes.The moment he realized it wasn’t Elmy, he shoved her away without hesitation—hard enough that she hit the floor with a loud thud.Zayne shot up and glared at Michella. “What the hell are you doing?” His gaze hardened. “Get out. Now.”“Michella, your room’s next door.”Elmy’s voice came from the doorway. She stood there in her nightwear, staring sharply at her stepsister who was groaning on the floor. Her steps were slow, but once she reached her, she grabbed Michella’s arm without mercy.“Ow! That hurts! Can’t you be a little gentler?” Michella snapped, pulling her arm away. The annoyance on her face was a far cry from the innocent look Zayne had seen the night before.“What the hell is wrong with you? Walking in

168. Wrong Kind

Elmy had never felt this filthy—her emotions festering and rotting inside her chest. Watching Michella cling to her father made her feel like her place as his biological daughter was being pushed aside. She had never even been that affectionate with Vincent. Her mother had always set boundaries, knowing Vincent was always busy—untouchable, even… sometimes Elmy was too afraid just to ask him to go out for a walk.Seeing Michella wrap her arms around her father’s while chatting so casually made Elmy grip her clothes tightly. It felt like her chest was being sliced open. And instead of feeling uncomfortable, her father responded just the same.How was that even possible?“Mom…” Elmy called when they were sitting on the balcony. Zayne was downstairs, talking with Mr. Joo. Her father and Michella were in the living room, chatting casually over drinks. Meanwhile, she and her mother sat in silence.“You need to get used to that,” Isabella said, as if she already knew where this was going. El

169. Something Still Feels Wrong

“I don’t want to be in the same car as Michella,” Elmy said firmly. Without thinking, she placed her bag on the empty seat, then glanced at Michella, who clicked her tongue in annoyance. The girl turned toward Vincent, who rubbed his face tiredly.Without waiting for Vincent’s response, Elmy immediately called out, “Drive.”“Yes, ma’am.”“Hey!” Michella snapped.Elmy smiled in satisfaction, leaving Michella behind. Slowly, she turned to Zayne, who was now clapping at her behavior.“You really are Elmy Jordyn, aren’t you?” he asked.“No. I’m Mrs. Kensley,” she said, flipping her hair back, making Zayne grin. “What? Surprised by my attitude? This is just the beginning. From now on, I won’t give that woman any chance to get close to you,” she added, pointing at his chest.“You’re possessive too,” Zayne teased. Elmy froze when he looked away, his ears turning red. “But I like it. I didn’t know you had this side.”“Did you enjoy your punishment today?” Elmy suddenly asked. The question mad

170. Unmasked

“Where are you going today?” Zayne asked.“Me?” Elmy turned slightly from her vanity. “Just going out for a bit.” She looked up at Zayne as he walked up behind her, then suddenly wrapped her arms around his neck.“Going out alone? Not taking me with you?” Zayne asked, sounding a little hurt. “I’m your husband, you know.”“You’re probably still tired from last night,” Elmy said with a faint smirk as she caught his flushed reflection in the mirror.“Isn’t it the other way around?” Zayne teased. “You were the one who almost passed out, sweetheart,” he added with a playful grin.Elmy didn’t bother responding. She let go of him and stood up. “Anyway, I’m going out alone. You…” she pointed a finger at his chest, “should help Sebastian pack today. He’s leaving.”“And why aren’t you coming?”“I’ve got something to take care of. It won’t take long. I’ll join you after,” Elmy said, quickly grabbing her bag from the vanity. She leaned in to plant a quick kiss on Zayne’s lips before waving at him
