CHAPTER FORTY-ONE: FROM THE BEGINNINGSERENA'S POVI sat down in the chair across from his desk.Caspian looked at me with a tired, serious face. The softness I had seen in him on some nights was gone. Only the cold, focused man remained. The same desk where he had once held me now felt like a barrier between us.“I’ve been receiving messages from the very beginning,” I said. “At first it was almost friendly. Small comments. Questions about how I was settling in. Things that felt strange but not dangerous. Then I told the person to leave me alone. After that, the tone changed. The messages became hostile. Warnings. Accusations. References to that night at the gala. After the crash last night, they sent a message that only said, I told you so.”Caspian’s eyes narrowed.“How long have you been receiving those messages?” he asked.I took a deep breath. My hands feeling cold in my lap.“It started not long after I moved into this house.’Caspian’s eyes narrowed. “What?”“From the beginnin

CHAPTER FORTY-THREE: HELENACASPIAN'S POVThe front door slammed open so hard the sound echoed through the entire mansion.I was in the living room when I heard it. Before I could fully stand, Helena’s voice filled the house.“Caspian!”She came down the hallway like a storm. Her face was tight with anger, her hair slightly messy from the rush, her eyes sharp and furious. She did not wait for anyone to greet her. She walked straight into the room and pointed a finger at me.“How could you let this happen?” she shouted. “Do you have any idea what the board is saying? What the investors are saying? The stock is collapsing and you are sitting in this house like a weak, distracted boy!”I kept my voice controlled. “Aunt Helena. Lower your voice.”“I will not lower my voice!” She stepped closer. Her heels clicked hard against the floor. “You have become irresponsible. You had one job. Protect the company your father left in your hands and instead you allow Damian Cross to steal a product f

CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE: HOSPITAL FOOD AND HARD QUESTIONSSERENA'S POVI woke up early and decided I needed to see Lucas.The house still felt heavy after Helena’s visit. I needed air. I needed my brother. I went to the kitchen and cooked for him myself. Soft rice, grilled chicken, a little soup, and the sweet bread he liked when he had enough energy to eat it. Mrs. Ellis offered to help, but I shook my head. I wanted to do it with my own hands.When the food was packed, I called the driver and went straight to the hospital.Lucas was awake when I entered his room. He looked better than he had a week ago. There was a bit more color in his face. The machines still beeped quietly beside him, but his eyes were clear.“Serena,” he said, smiling. “You brought real food.”I smiled back and set the containers on the small table. “Hospital food is terrible. I had to save you.”He laughed softly, then winced a little as he sat up higher against the pillows. I moved quickly to help him. Once he was

CHAPTER FORTY-SEVEN: STAY WITH MESERENA'S POVI came home from the hospital with a quiet heart.Talking to Lucas had left me softer and better than when I left. His questions about divorce and about how Caspian treated me stayed in my mind, but so did the way he held my hand and told me I did not have to carry everything alone. I felt tired, but I also felt better and I have clarity. The drive back had been quiet. I had watched the city pass outside the window and tried to hold on to the small peace my brother had given me.The mansion was silent when I stepped inside. I thanked the driver and walked up the stairs slowly. My body felt heavy from the long day. All I wanted was to change clothes, wash my face, and rest for a while. The hallway lights were on and the usual sounds of the house felt distant.I was passing the study when my feet stopped.I did not know why.Maybe it was the way Lucas had looked at me when he asked if I was truly okay. Maybe it was the memory of Caspian sta

CHAPTER FORTY-NINE: THE OFFICE TEMPTRESS CASPIAN'S POVI left the house early the next morning.I needed to work. I needed the cold focus of the office. After what Serena had seen the day before, I could not stay in the mansion and look her in the eye without feeling exposed. The memory of her kneeling in front of me, telling me to breathe, calling me baby, still left me unsettled. I hated how much it affected me. I hated that she had seen the weak part I kept locked away.The drive to Laurent International was quiet. I kept my mind on the company, the stock was finally stable but we still need to find the source of the leak. Those problems were solid. Those problems I could fight. Soft voices and gentle hands had no place in that fight.When I reached my office, Nathan was already waiting with new reports. We went through them for almost an hour.“The new trail is cleaner than we thought,” Nathan said. “It still doesn’t point anywhere near Mrs. Laurent. If anything, it pulls further
