Declan’s phone was still pressed to his ear when the line went dead.“Octavia?” he shouted. “Octavia! Talk to me!”Silence.His heart slammed against his ribs. “No… no, no, no!”He immediately called her back. It went straight to voicemail.“Fuck!” Declan paced his office, hands shaking. He called the Chief of police “Chief Benson. My wife Octavia has been kidnapped. Someone had a knife to her throat. She called me from the car. I heard everything. She’s in danger. You need to track her phone right now!”The chief’s voice was calm “Mr. Rothschild, slow down. Give me the details. When did this happen? What exactly did you hear?”Declan’s voice cracked with panic. “Five minutes ago! She was driving. She kept asking "why are you doing this to me?’ and ‘why do you have a knife to my throat?’ Then the line went dead. She’s in her black Mercedes. Track the phone Chief, my wife is in that car!”“We’re on it,” the chief replied. “I’m sending units now. Stay on the line. We’ll use the GPS fro

A week later, Declan was finally discharged from the hospital. Octavia drove him home in silence. The mansion felt different now, but Seraphina’s laughter echoed from the living room the moment they walked in.“Daddy! Mommy!” Seraphina ran to them and hugged Declan’s good side carefully. “The doctor said you’re okay now, right?”Declan smiled and ruffled her hair with his uninjured arm. “I’m okay, princess. Thanks to your mommy taking care of me.”Seraphina looked up at Octavia. “Mommy, are you still mad at Daddy?”Octavia forced a small smile. “We’re fine, baby. Let’s get Daddy settled so he can rest.”They helped Declan to the couch. Octavia made sure he was comfortable with pillows behind his back.“Do you need anything?” she asked, her voice neutral. “Water? Painkillers?”Declan shook his head. “I’m good for now. Thank you, Octavia.”Seraphina climbed onto the couch beside him. “Daddy, can we watch cartoons? You promised when you came home.”Declan chuckled. “Of course. Put on wha

The interrogation room at the police station was quiet. Elizabeth sat at the metal table, her hands cuffed in front of her. Her lawyer, a woman in a black suit named Mrs. Bennett, sat beside her.Chief Benson and two detectives sat across from them.Chief Benson leaned forward. “Dr. Voss, let’s start from the beginning. You were arrested for conspiracy to commit kidnapping and attempted murder of Dr. Octavia Lancaster. We have bank records showing large transfers to the suspect’s account. We have messages on the suspect’s phone mentioning your name. Care to explain?”Elizabeth sat up “I have nothing to explain. I had nothing to do with any kidnapping or any attempt on Dr. Lancaster’s life. Those transfers were for medical supplies I ordered for the hospital. The messages are completely out of context.”Mrs. Bennett raised her hand. “My client has already stated she had no involvement. Unless you have concrete evidence linking her directly to the crime, this interview is over.”Detecti

Octavia walked into the hospital that morning. She had barely taken a few steps toward her station when she saw Elizabeth standing at the nurses’ station. Elizabeth was laughing with two residents. The moment she noticed Octavia, her smile widened.“Dr. Lancaster,” she called out sweetly but loud enough for several people nearby to hear. “You're back so soon? I thought you’d take more time off after everything. The police made a terrible mistake arresting me. They thought I was involved, but of course I wasn’t. They realized it was all a misunderstanding and I was released. I knew you'll be surprised to see me..”Octavia stopped walking. The nurses around Elizabeth went quiet. A few residents paused in the hallway, everyone eager to see Octavia's reaction.Elizabeth continued “I mean, it’s funny how some people can hate someone so much that they try to get the police involved. But evil can’t triumph over good, right? The truth always comes out. I’m innocent, and now everyone knows it.

Declan sat in his quiet home office with the door closed. Seraphina was napping upstairs, and the house felt peaceful for the first time in days. He stared at the phone on his desk for a long moment, then picked it up. His mind was made up. He dialed the private number of his lead lawyer, Mr. Hayes.The phone rang twice before Mr. Hayes answered.“Mr. Rothschild. Good afternoon, Sir. How are you feeling after everything that happened?”Declan leaned back in his chair. “I’m recovering, thank you. Listen, I need to do something important, and I need it handled quickly and quietly. Can you make that happen?”“Of course. You know I can. What are we talking about?”“I want to set up a trust for my daughter, Seraphina. I need full voting power in the company and I want to transfer fifty percent of my personal shares directly into Octavia’s name right now.”There was a short pause on the line. Mr. Hayes cleared his throat. “Fifty percent? That’s a very significant portion of your holdings, S
