All Chapters of Marrying My Ex’s Billionaire Uncle.: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

For three days, Amelia tried to ignore the compass.She placed it in Daniel’s study.Locked it inside a drawer.Focused on the Carter Center for Historical Truth, where historians, students, and volunteers worked side by side to preserve documents that had once been hidden from the world.Yet every morning, when she unlocked the drawer, the brass needle pointed unwaveringly north.Always north.⸻Marcus leaned against the office doorway, watching her study the compass.“Still hoping it’ll change its mind?”Amelia smiled.“I was hoping I’d change mine.”Marcus folded his arms.“Have you?”She looked down at the spinning needle.“No.”⸻That afternoon, Helena Voss, Professor Lucien Moreau, Adrian Novak, Claire, Henry, Ethan, Samuel, Olivia, Eleanor, Gabriel, and Captain Nora gathered in the conference room.The twelve Guardians sat around a large cedar table.For the first time since Black Haven, there were no emergencies.No enemies.Only a decision.Amelia placed the compass in the ce

The courtyard fell silent.Hundreds of ravens circled overhead, their cries fading into the night as the stranger stepped through the open gates of the Carter Center.He walked without urgency.Without fear.His long white coat moved gently in the evening breeze.The silver circle embroidered over his heart caught the moonlight.Marcus instinctively moved in front of Amelia.“Stop right there.”The stranger did.His expression remained calm.“I didn’t come here to fight.”Captain Nora quietly signaled Samuel and Gabriel to move to either side of the courtyard.Within seconds, the stranger was surrounded.Yet he didn’t seem concerned.⸻“My name is Elias Arden,” he said.“I represent the Circle.”Henry’s brow furrowed.“The Circle?”Professor Moreau slowly shook his head.“I’ve never heard of them.”Julian had.The color drained from his face.“No…”Amelia noticed immediately.“You know who he is.”Julian never took his eyes off the man in white.“I know what he represents.”⸻Elias fo

The first light of dawn spilled across the Carter Center.Inside the conference room, maps, satellite images, and old journals covered every available surface.No one had slept.The revelation of the Seven Hidden Sanctuaries had changed everything.Amelia stood at the head of the table, studying a map of West Africa.Her finger rested on southern Nigeria.“If the Sanctuary of Hope is really here,” she said, “we don’t have much time.”Elias nodded.“We don’t.”⸻Professor Moreau placed a faded parchment beside the modern map.“The old records don’t mention cities.”“They mention rivers.”He traced a winding blue line across the page.“According to this, the Sanctuary lies where three ancient paths once met.”Captain Nora compared the parchment with satellite images.“The rivers have shifted over the centuries.”“But…”She zoomed in on a dense patch of rainforest.“This area has barely changed.”Samuel leaned over her shoulder.“How remote is it?”“Very.”“There are no roads leading int

Golden pillars pierced the sky.One.Then three.Then five.From the heart of forests, beneath forgotten mountains, across distant deserts, and beyond frozen seas, brilliant columns of light rose into the heavens.The Hidden Sanctuaries were awakening.Amelia stood beneath the ancient cedar tree, unable to look away.The Seed of Hope rested in her palm, warm and alive.She could feel it pulsing like a heartbeat.⸻Elias Arden stared upward, his face pale.“This has never happened.”Julian turned sharply.“You’ve seen the Sanctuaries awaken before?”“Not like this.”Elias shook his head.“They always awakened one at a time.”“Never together.”Seraphine whispered,“Someone has connected them.”⸻A powerful gust of wind swept through the clearing.The towering cedar tree glowed brighter.Its leaves shimmered like molten gold before returning to their natural green.The split in its trunk widened.Hidden inside was a narrow passage descending into the earth.Unlike the entrance they had d

The helicopter touched down just after sunset.Amelia jumped out before the rotors had fully slowed.Marcus, Claire, Julian, Captain Nora, Samuel, Gabriel, Elias, and Seraphine followed close behind.The Carter Center was eerily quiet.Police vehicles surrounded the building.Emergency lights painted the walls in flashes of blue and red.Henry met them outside.A bandage wrapped around his forehead.Relief washed over his face when he saw Amelia.“You’re here.”She hurried to him.“What happened?”Henry looked toward the entrance.“They didn’t come to kill us.”“They came looking for something.”⸻Inside, the archive was in disarray.Books covered the floor.Display cases had been opened.Documents were scattered everywhere.Yet strangely…Very little had actually been stolen.Professor Moreau sat in a chair, exhausted but unharmed.“They searched every room.”“For nearly twenty minutes.”Marcus looked around.“What were they after?”Henry answered with one word.“Daniel.”⸻Amelia fr
