The breaking point of love의 모든 챕터: 챕터 11 - 챕터 20

​Mrs. Valle glared at him, taking a step back as she let out a cynical laugh, returning his mockery in kind:— "And frankly, I find no reason for your actions... except that they are the remnants of an abandoned man!"She rubbed her forehead in clear irritation at his provoking insolence, then continued in a sharp tone:— "You are causing me a headache as well, Adrian... Why do you meddle in everything that does not concern you? From the past until now, what is your business with my daughter to come between us? She is my daughter, and I have the right to do with her as I please!"A calm but dangerous smile played on Adrian’s lips. He took an extra step forward, closing the distance between them until he was staring directly into her eyes with a stark, severe warning, whispering in a terrifying undertone:— "Your daughter?"He fixed his dark gaze on her eyes and continued:— "Eileen, everything that concerns her, and all her paths... belong to me alone. Just because I left her for a li

The features of the sleeping girl contorted as the morning sunlight disturbed her. Dana got up in annoyance, shutting the curtains she had completely forgotten about as she briefly stared at the lights and the gardens outside. Before she could return to bed, her phone rang. The caller was Adrian. She stared at the screen with hesitation before slowly answering, remaining silent.​Then came his deep voice:— "Dana, I know my behavior with you yesterday was harsh while you were angry. But I wanted you to know... if you are anxious because you are the link between me and Zeus, between my world and his, I want you to rest assured. Trust me more."​She sighed deeply and looked away as she grew weak once again under the influence of her love for him—a love rooted so deeply in her heart that it only gripped her tighter and wounded her more.​— "It's fine, Adrian. I will trust you..." She paused for a moment before continuing, "Are you free tonight so we can spend the evening together?"​He s

​In an entirely different place, far away from the flashing lights of lavish companies and the bustle of city streets, where matters were managed in deep secrecy and the fates of men were decided with a single word... sat a man in his fifties. He was draped in an overwhelming prestige that filled every corner of his darkened office, his sharp, strict features betraying a long history of conflicts and bloodshed in the world of the mafia.​He slowly exhaled the smoke of his premium cigar, letting the gray fog swirl around his face, while his piercing eyes remained intensely fixed on the computer screen before him.​Displayed on the screen was a collection of recently captured photographs... photos of Eileen.​The images had been taken with high-precision lenses from hidden angles, exposing the interior of her apartment. They caught her in the early hours of the morning, standing in the kitchen in those short, tight clothes that accentuated her body, capturing the exact moments when Kai

A full week passed, with the days bleeding into one another in a monotonous rhythm charged with silence and apprehension.​Eileen opened her eyes very slowly with the first rays of the sun, but she didn’t feel the usual morning energy; instead, her body felt incredibly heavy, as if mountains had settled upon her chest. Her breaths came out hot, and her forehead was drenched in sweat despite the chill of the room. Her body had betrayed her once again under the weight of extreme exhaustion and the relentless, merciless thoughts of the past few days. Those thoughts had dragged up harsh, blurry memories from a fractured past, turning them against her in the form of a burning fever that drained what little strength she had left.​She tried to push herself up onto her forearms to get out of bed, but her balance gave way. Vertigo swamped her mind, and she would have collapsed if not for a powerful hand that shot out to catch her at the very last second.​It was Kai, watching her with anxious

Eileen lay on the cold floor for seconds that felt like an eternity, her eyes fixed on the empty void while Kai’s cruel words echoed inside her head like a sledgehammer.She forced her trembling body up, rising with immense difficulty as she leaned heavily against the walls to keep from collapsing again. She took weak, dragging steps toward the bathroom. There, beneath the stream of water, she stood in absolute silence; she did not scream, she did not sob. Instead, she simply let the warm water mix with her silent tears, washing away the traces of that long, degrading day, hoping it might quench the fires consuming her body from within.She emerged after a long time, her body still burning with the fever. Without looking around or uttering a single word, she threw herself onto the bed and pulled the blanket over her. She surrendered to sleep immediately, like someone escaping a reality that had become too heavy to bear, leaving behind a clouded mind and a broken soul.Outside, in the
