Semua Bab THE BILLIONAIRE'S BROKEN HEIR: Bab 11 - Bab 20

Dominic POV Dominic Kingsley didn't sleep.He hadn't slept since the night in the courtyard.Not after seeing fear in Scarlett Hayes' eyes… and realizing he was the cause of it.The city lights stretched beyond his window, cold and distant, mirroring the emptiness he had learned to live with. But tonight, that emptiness felt different.Unsettled.Dangerous.Because for the first time in his life, Dominic wasn't thinking about power, control, or strategy.He was thinking about her.Scarlett Hayes."She's becoming a problem."Victor's voice broke through the silence as he stepped into the room without knocking.Dominic didn't turn. "She's not a problem."Victor let out a quiet breath. "You're wrong. She's changing things. You're changing because of her. That alone makes her dangerous."Dominic's jaw tightened. "Careful, Victor.""I'm serious," Victor continued, unfazed. "We were in control before she came. Now? There are leaks, interference, and someone is using her to get to you."Dom

Dominic: POV Dominic Kingsley had always known one thing.Trust was a weakness.And tonight… that weakness had a name.Alexander Hayes.The moment Dominic stepped into the abandoned library and saw him standing there calm, composed, and completely in control, he understood.This wasn't chaos.This wasn't a coincidence.This was the design."You shouldn't have come alone," Dominic said coldly, his eyes never leaving Alexander.But his words weren't for him.They were for Scarlett.She stood frozen between them, her world collapsing in real time. Her eyes moved from Dominic to Alexander, searching… begging… for something that made sense.She wouldn't find it.Not tonight."You knew," Scarlett whispered, her voice breaking as she looked at Dominic. "You knew about him…"Dominic didn't answer immediately.Because the truth?The truth would destroy what little trust she had left."I suspected," he said finally.Her breath caught."That's not the same thing," she said, shaking her head."

Dominic: POV Dominic Kingsley didn't believe in fear.He understood it. Used it. Controlled it.But he never felt it.Until now.Because the look on Scarlett Hayes' face as she held that photograph?That wasn't confusion.That wasn't doubt.That was the beginning of something far worse.Truth.And truth… was dangerous.Dominic took the photo from her slowly, his eyes scanning every detail again.Location: unknown.Timestamp: three years ago.Subject: Scarlett Hayes.Impossible."You've never been there?" he asked, his voice sharp.Scarlett shook her head immediately. "No. I would remember something like that."Dominic studied her face.Searching.Testing.She wasn't lying.That only made it worse."Then someone wants us to believe you were there," he said.Scarlett's voice was quiet. "Or I was… and I don't remember."Dominic's jaw tightened.No.That didn't fit.Unless His thoughts stopped."Say that again," he said.Scarlett hesitated. "I said… maybe I was there and I just don't re

Dominic:POV Dominic Kingsley had lost control.And he hated it.Not the kind of control he used on people.Not power.Not strategy.This was worse.Scarlett Hayes.The look in her eyes as she stepped away from him… as if he were the enemy.That stayed with him.Burned into him."I trusted you."Her voice echoed in his head like a wound that refused to close.Dominic stood alone in the surveillance room long after the screen had gone dark.The silence pressed in on him.Heavy.Relentless."She's slipping away."Victor's voice came from the doorway.Dominic didn't turn. "I know."Victor stepped inside, his expression calm as always, but his eyes sharp."You let this get personal," he said. "That was your first mistake."Dominic's jaw tightened. "She's not a mistake."Victor studied him for a moment.Then nodded slightly."Exactly."That one word said everything.Dominic turned slowly. "If you're here to lecture me, don't.""I'm here because things just changed," Victor replied. "Alexan

Scarlett: POV The Kingsley estate was nothing like Scarlett had imagined.It was worse.The black iron gates stood tall like prison bars, stretching endlessly across the misty morning. Beyond them, the mansion rose like a shadow against the pale sky,massive and cold, its stone walls carrying the kind of silence that only places filled with secrets could hold.Scarlett sat beside Dominic in the car, her hands clasped tightly in her lap.Her father.Victor.Camille.All of them in that video.And now this place.Every answer seemed to lead to a darker question.Dominic glanced at her briefly. "Once we go in, stay close to me."Scarlett turned to him. "Why?"His jaw tightened. "Because this house doesn't forgive mistakes."A chill ran through her.The gates opened slowly with a metallic groan.The car rolled forward.As they drove through the long path lined with ancient trees and stone statues, Scarlett felt something stir inside her.A strange sense of familiarity.Like she had seen t
