All Chapters of Miracle In Prison: 100 Days to Destroy her Ex-Husband: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Silas's POV"Repeat what you just said right now, Ivan!" I roared, grabbing him by the collar of his shirt."Veronica went missing at the hotel, sir," Ivan repeated, his voice shaking. "She disappeared when I was trying to get you into the car."I could not believe my own ears. A white-hot rage washed over my entire body, making my blood boil instantly. I felt like destroying everything around me. I wanted to smash a car window or tear down a building with my bare hands."What did I tell you about Veronica?" I hissed, pulling him closer until our faces were inches apart. "Did I not explicitly order you and the rest of the team to treat her with absolute respect? Did I not instruct you to make her feel completely safe and at peace around us?""Sir, I was only trying to protect you from Ashley," Ivan stammered, trying to defend himself. "I thought getting you away safely was the main priority at that exact moment..."Before he could finish his sentence, my fist flew across the air.My k

Veronica's POV"Veronica, run! Get out of here right now!" Julian screamed, clutching his bleeding shoulder as he lay flat on the pavement.I was completely horrified. The sight of red blood spreading across his shirt paralyzed me. Julian kept urging me to flee, but I could not move a single muscle. Panic locked my legs to the cold ground while chaos erupted all around us.Before I could process the loud shouts and screeching tires, two strong arms grabbed me from behind. A group of masked men wearing tactical gear pulled me up off the ground. Thinking they were Julian's private security team based on their uniforms, I immediately started shouting orders at them."Save Julian right now!" I yelled, struggling against their hold as they dragged me away. "He is shot! Help him this instant or there will be dire consequences for all of you!"The men completely ignored my demands. They hoisted me into the back of a black, unmarked car and slammed the heavy door shut. The engine roared to li

Julian's POV"Where is she?" I demanded, my throat completely dry as I forced my heavy eyelids open."Who are you talking about, boss?" Marco asked, stepping closer to the side of my medical bed."Veronica!" I yelled, trying to sit up but failing instantly as a sharp pain ripped through my shoulder. "Where is Veronica right now?""We do not know, sir," Marco answered, looking completely confused. "She has not been by your side since we brought you into this medical facility.""What do you mean you do not know?" I roared, grabbing the white hospital bedsheet tightly with my good hand. "Were you not the ones who took her to safety while I was bleeding out on the pavement?""No, sir," Marco said, his eyes widening in complete shock. "We focused entirely on securing your bleeding shoulder and getting you into the emergency vehicle. We did not take the girl.""Are you completely stupid?" I screamed at him, ignoring the burning pain in my chest. "I saw men in tactical gear grab her! I thoug

Veronica's POV"Are they already here to kill us?" I gasped out, my chest heaving violently as I struggled to pull air into my lungs. The massive walls of the study felt like they were closing in on me. I grabbed the edge of the heavy oak desk to steady myself, but my legs felt like jelly."Calm down," Silas ordered, his grip tightening on my arm as he pulled me toward a hidden side door behind the tall bookshelf. "Nobody is dying tonight. Just keep moving your feet and do exactly as I say.""I cannot breathe!" I cried out, stumbling over my own shoes as he dragged me forward. "You just said Julian is sending heavily armed men to your home! We are trapped in here! They are going to find us and shoot us!""We are not trapped," Silas stated calmly, pushing the hidden door open and dragging me down a long, dark concrete corridor. "I built this entire estate for situations exactly like this. Just follow my lead and stay completely quiet.""How can I stay quiet?" I yelled, trying to yank m

Veronica's POV"Please stay still, you are perfectly safe here," a soft voice instructed right next to my ear.I opened my eyes and gasped loudly. A woman I did not know sat on the edge of the mattress. She wore a crisp white medical uniform. She held my right hand tightly in hers. I yanked my fingers away instantly and pushed myself backward against the large wooden headboard. The sudden movement sent a sharp, intense pain directly into my skull. I grabbed the sides of my head with both hands and groaned out loud. The room spun rapidly around me."Who are you?" I demanded, my voice coming out harsh and dry. "Where am I? Do not touch me again!""I am Clara," the woman said in a calm, steady tone, raising her hands to show she meant no harm. "I am a private medical nurse. Silas sent me here to watch over you. You are completely safe in this room. Nobody else is coming inside.""Safe?" I yelled, looking around the large bedroom to make sure we were truly alone. The curtains were drawn t
