CHAPTER 81 : AN UNEXPECTED INTERVENTION

Ariana Pov As I stared at my reflection in the restroom mirror, Adrian's words lingered in my mind. My fingers curled into my palms as I pressed my lips together. I hated that his threat had gotten to me. After everything he had done to me, did he really think he could intimidate me? I turned on the tap and splashed some water onto my face. I reached for a paper towel and gently dabbed my cheeks dry before brushing my hair back. Taking a deep breath, I forced Adrian's words aside. I wasn't going to let him ruin the rest of my evening. By the time I stepped out of the restroom, I had composed myself. I shut the door behind me and smoothed down my dress as I walked back to the dining room, a smile on my face as though nothing had happened a few minutes ago. Adrian was already seated beside Tessa, his posture relaxed, his face carefully calm. I pulled back my chair and sat down. "Ariana?" Victoria's brow drew together with concern. "What happened? We heard a noise from that d

CHAPTER 82: THE GAME HAS JUST BEGUN.

Ariana PovThe soft scrape of chairs being pulled back drew me out of my thoughts.Dinner was over. The maids were already clearing the table, stacking plates and gathering dishes, and Grandpa had risen from his seat. I was still beside Damian, still trying to make sense of what had happened earlier.It could have meant nothing at all. Maybe he had simply remembered something he needed to discuss with his mother, and the timing was nothing more than coincidence.I pressed my lips together. Then why can't I stop thinking about it?Before I could dwell on the question, Grandpa stepped forward, drawing everyone's attention."I'm glad we could all spend this evening together," he said, looking around at the family gathered in the room. "It isn't often that we get everyone in one place, and I'm grateful that you all made the time to come." His expression softened as his gaze moved from one face to the next. "It's getting late now, and everyone needs their rest. Thank you all for coming. Go

CHAPTER 83: THE DISTANCE BETWEEN US

Damian Pov I pushed the bedroom door open and stepped inside. Even after all these years, the room felt familiar, as though my memory had kept every detail in its place. Some things stayed with you, whether you wanted them to or not. Ariana walked in first, and I followed. The moment the door closed behind us, she stopped. I stood with my hands in my pockets and waited, my face unreadable. I didn't hurry people. They hurried themselves. Her eyes moved around the room, settling first on the bed, then on the couch by the window. Her brow drew together slightly. Her lips pressed into a line, and her gaze moved between the two as though she were weighing a negotiation she didn't want to lose. "This is insane," she murmured. Then, almost immediately, she pointed at the couch. "I'll take the couch." "You don't have to," I said, my voice low and even. "I want to." I lifted one hand, dismissive, without a flicker of expression. "Whatever you want." Ariana didn't answer. She walked st

CHAPTER 84: THE NIGHT I LEFT

Ariana Pov The faint sound of running water drifted from the bathroom. Damian was still in the shower, and I stood in the middle of the bedroom, my pulse unsteady. I needed Serena to sort the gems and arrange them according to my plan. The family gathering was finally over, and my presentation was all that mattered now. I couldn't afford to waste time. Damian was still in the shower. This was my chance. I didn't want to explain myself to him, not even a little. I had this evening and tomorrow, nothing more. I glanced at the bathroom door once, then made myself move. I dressed quickly, fastening the buttons of my outfit as I moved around the room. The water continued running behind the bathroom door while I pulled out my luggage and began packing my notebooks, sketches, selected gemstones, and revised designs. I checked each item against my list before placing it inside. A casual dress for Wednesday went in next, followed by my outfit for Thursday’s presentation. I packed my sh

Chapter 85 : A New Lead

Ariana Pov I turned toward the voice and spotted a young woman across the road. Her face seemed familiar, though I couldn't place where I had seen her. The moment our eyes met, her face broke into an excited smile. She lifted a hand above her head and waved enthusiastically, then waited for a gap in the traffic and crossed carefully between the cars toward me. I watched her approach, studying her face. I tilted my head, searching my memory, until it suddenly clicked. Emma, Serena's friend, the girl who had invited Serena to her birthday party. I remembered how Serena had practically dragged me along. "Emma!" I called. Her face lit up when she heard her name. She hurried the remaining distance, and the moment we stood face to face, we pulled each other into a warm hug. After everything that had gone wrong tonight, it was the first friendly face I had seen, and I held on a second longer than I meant to. "Ariana, long time no see!" she exclaimed, pulling back to look at me pr

Chapter 86 : A Day That Took A Turn

Ariana Pov Emma slid the butter across the table and tore a slice of bread in half. "I made the phone calls last night. He told me he'd get back to me this morning." I stopped with my fork halfway to my mouth. "I also asked about a private workshop," she went on. "That would be best. With privacy, we could get things done faster, and it would have all the equipment you need. I'm just waiting for his call. I'm sure he'll call back." I couldn't hide my smile. After so much time spent worrying about the delay, it felt good to know there might be a way forward. "Thank you, Emma. Honestly, I don't know what I would have done without you and Serena." "Don't thank us," Serena said, setting a piece of bread on her plate. "You still have a collection to finish." She chuckled, and I laughed with her. I turned back to Emma. "Has he called you yet?" Right then, Emma's phone rang. She glanced at the screen. "Speak of the devil," she muttered, and put it to her ear. "Yes, I'm l

CHAPTER 87: The Call That Changed Everything

Damian Pov I was reviewing the quarterly financial reports, checking the figures against the previous month's records. I never overlooked a discrepancy, no matter how insignificant it seemed. Then my phone rang. I hated interruptions, and my hand was already reaching to dismiss the call. Then I saw the screen. An unfamiliar number. Strange. Very few people had this number, and every one of them was saved on my phone. So who the hell was calling me from an unknown number? There was only one way to find out. I set my pen down and picked up the call. "Am I speaking to Mr. Damian?" The voice came through the line, rushed and unsteady. In the background, I could hear car horns and the wail of a siren. What the hell was going on? "Yes, this is Damian." “Sir, this is the highway patrol. A young woman in her twenties was involved in an accident on the main road out of the city, just past the Eastgate toll bridge. Several people were involved in the accident, and they've alread

CHAPTER 88 : We Did It

Ariana Pov "Gosh, that was close," Serena said from the back seat, her voice still unsteady. "We passed just before it happened." The sound of the horn was still lingering in my ears, and I could still picture how quickly the vehicle had sped past us. My hand pressed flat against my chest, and my heart was still beating fast from the shock. "I just hope the victims are okay and their loved ones get to them in time." "I'm sure they will," Emma and Serena said at the same time. "Jinx!" Serena exclaimed, tapping the back of Emma's seat. "We said it together!" Emma glanced at her through the rearview mirror, smiling. I chuckled at their antics, and Serena threw her hands up. "Okay, no more negative energy, girls." She grinned. "Not today." Today is for Ariana, and we're going to make it special. Bringing her sketches to real pieces and making every moment count. A warm feeling spread through my chest, and I looked from Emma to Serena, grinning. "I'm really lucky to have you bot

CHAPTER 89 : A MOMENT WORTH SHARING

Ariana Pov By the time we stepped onto the rooftop lounge, I understood why Emma had picked it. Golden light ran along the glass railing, and beyond it, New York spread out in glittering layers. Music drifted between the tables, soft beneath the hum of conversation. We made our way to an empty table near the railing. I placed my purse on my lap while Emma and Serena set theirs on the empty chairs beside them. The waiter took our orders: red wine and grilled salmon for Emma, a cocktail and pasta primavera for Serena, and white wine and creamy Alfredo for me. Emma leaned back and exhaled. "Guess this wasn't a bad idea." "You have good eyes," Serena said, lifting her cocktail toward Emma. Emma smiled proudly. "I know." Serena laughed before raising her glass. "To Ariana, and to her finally completing her signature collection!" "Cheers!" Emma said, lifting her glass. I clinked my glass against theirs, smiling. "I couldn't have done it without a little help from you two." By the t

CHAPTER 90 : An Unwelcome Feeling

Damian PovThe family doctor was examining Vanessa when I stepped into her bedroom.She sat propped against the headboard, a small bandage covering the scratch on her head. Her face looked pale beneath the bedside lamp."Nothing appears to be seriously wrong," the doctor said as he finished. "She needs proper rest tonight. If she experiences any dizziness or severe headaches, contact me immediately."My mother stood beside the bed, her brows drawn together. Victoria sat close to Vanessa, holding her hands.The moment the doctor finished, my mother leaned forward and pressed a kiss to Vanessa's forehead."My sweet girl, you gave us such a scare," she murmured, smoothing Vanessa's hair back. "You shouldn't have been out late alone.""I'm fine, Mom," Vanessa said with a weak smile. "Really, you don't have to worry so much.""How can I not worry?" My mother adjusted the blanket over Vanessa's leg. "Look at what happened to you. You're home now, and that's all I care about. You just need t
