Chapter 201

Xavier's POVI looked back at the burning building after the ambulance carrying Scarlett sped away, then slowly scanned the surroundings, hoping to catch even the slightest glimpse of Romano. I refused to believe he had simply disappeared after causing so much chaos. But if he hadn't left... where could he be hiding? My gaze swept across the area until it landed on the building opposite the manufacturing plant. From there, anyone could get a perfect aerial view of everything happening below. My eyes narrowed. "Could someone be up there?” I muttered to myself just as a few of my men approached. “Boss,” they greeted in unison, bowing their heads. “Find out how this fire started, and—” I began, only to be interrupted by Gerald rushing towards me. His clothes were dishevelled, soot covered his face, and he looked as though he had just crawled out of the inferno himself. For a brief second, I wondered if he had gotten into a fight. “You...” I started, but he spoke first. “I stayed behi

Chapter 202

Scarlett's POVI slowly opened my eyes, expecting to see another nurse checking on me, but the figure standing quietly by the door made my heart skip a beat. It wasn't a nurse. It was Xavier. Xavier was standing there, silently watching me. This is a dream... It had to be. This was just another one of the countless dreams where Xavier came back to me, only for me to wake up and realise he was gone all over again. But... what if he was real? For a long moment, I simply stared at him, unable to breathe, too afraid to blink because I feared he would disappear the moment I did. My eyes slowly traced every familiar feature I had memorised years ago, and tears welled up before I could stop them. It really was him. Xavier. The man I had mourned for weeks, believing he had died, was standing only a few steps away from me. My lips parted, but no words came out. I slowly reached towards him with trembling fingers, and the instant his warm hand enclosed mine, every lingering doubt inside me s

Chapter 203

Scarlett's POVI watched Xavier's face darken, as though he had suddenly been reminded of just how irredeemable Romano truly was. But then I realized something. I had just told Xavier that we had a child together, and that his father had murdered our baby... yet his reaction felt oddly off. It wasn't the reaction of a man hearing such devastating news for the first time. It was as though he had already known. As if he had been carrying that pain long before this conversation. Then his earlier words finally made sense. He really had been around all this time. Maybe he had watched from afar, believing I was happily living with his father and no longer needed him, which was why he had kept his distance. The thought stung, but strangely, it also comforted me. Xavier had never truly abandoned me. Even when I couldn't see him, he had somehow still been watching over me.“I... I'm sorry,” he whispered, his voice cracking under the weight of his guilt. “I really failed you... and I failed o

Chapter 204

Scarlett's POVThey all looked at me, probably wondering what I had up my sleeves, but the truth was, I had nothing except the things all of us already knew. “Do you have anything, Scarlett?” Seraphina asked, and I slowly shook my head. “No,” I admitted. “I don't have anything that the rest of us aren't already aware of... but maybe that's everything we need.” The room fell quiet as they tried to process my words. “So you mean we attack him with everything we've got?” Xavier asked, and I nodded, relieved that he immediately understood where I was going with it. “What's with this synchronization?” Cindy huffed, narrowing her eyes at Xavier before turning back to me. "Why does he always understand what you mean before the rest of us do?” She folded her arms dramatically. “What exactly do you mean by everything?” I leaned back against the bed and took a slow breath. “That's where you come in. Don't you have every piece of dirt on Romano's illegal dealings? Then let's leak everything

Chapter 205

Romano's POVMy eyes darkened with murderous intent as I stared at the television broadcasting the news about me, and when I could no longer contain the rage boiling inside me, I completely lost control. “Everything is ruined! Ruined!” I roared, snatching the expensive vase beside the table and hurling it at the television. The screen shattered with a loud crack, glass scattering across the room, but the destruction did nothing to ease the fury burning inside me. I couldn't believe that everything I had spent years building was collapsing because of a single news report. I had been certain I had covered my tracks by setting the manufacturing plant on fire. Who would've thought so many people would survive? Now every news station was reporting that Spring Green, the company I had recently acquired, was nothing more than a front for transporting my drugs. To make matters worse, reporters had already begun interviewing eyewitnesses. Everything had happened too perfectly, too systemat
