All Chapters of THE HEIRESS HE ALMOST LOST: Chapter 11 - Chapter 17

The moment I arrived at the hotel, almost all the heads turned immediately. People openly stared at the Bentley as I drove in slowly, Some even pulling out their phones to get a reel. The entire venue looked breathtaking, nothing like the regular company events I was used to. Luxury cars filled the parking lot, ushers running around in black uniforms, and a long red carpet stretched proudly toward the grand entrance.The old me would have hidden somewhere far away from everyone, probably parked in the darkest corner just to avoid attention.But the new me liked the attention my car was getting, and tonight, I was going to channel every bit of it to myself.Slowly, I brought my Bentley to a stop right in front of the red carpet where most of my colleagues were taking pictures. I knew that was the perfect spot to snatch all the attention.

Stephen’s POV“You just killed my son…”The voice lingered in my ear even after the call went silent. For a moment, nobody spoke.

By morning, I was certain he would have traced every possible lead connected to the call.But honestly, the threat didn’t bother me.

The veins along his neck stood out sharply while sweat gathered around his forehead. He looked like he was fighting hard not to collapse completely.Fear engulfed me instantly.I tightened my grip around him while screaming for help, but the only thing that answered me was my own echo bouncing around the empty mansion.No guards.No workers.Nobody.Just us.My heart pounded violently as I looked down at him again. That was when I noticed his lips moving slightly, he was muttering something.Barely audi
