RISE OF THE BILLIONAIRE SON-IN-LAW 140
As Jessica led Lisa to the parking lot, guiding her away from the prying eyes and murmurs inside the mansion, Lisa's tears began to slow, though her breaths still came in ragged gasps. She clung to her friend's arm, her mind spinning with confusion and hurt. She needed to get away, to escape the chaos that had turned her world upside down. Jessie, sensing her friend's desperation, kept her close, whispering gentle reassurances as they moved further from the noise and the whispers.They reached the edge of the parking lot, where the night moon cast long shadows across the rows of parked cars. Just as they were about to head toward Jessie’s car, a sleek black SUV pulled up in front of them, moving slowly and deliberately as it found a spot to park. The engine hummed softly, its dark windows hiding whoever was inside.Lisa and Jessica stopped, staring at the SUV, a sense of unease creeping in. "Who could that be?" Jessie muttered, her voice tinged with suspicion. Lisa’s heart began to po

Ray continued, his voice dripping with malice. “For months, I’ve been trying to get to Mello. And tonight, when I saw you two together, it all became clear. I knew exactly what to do.” He laughed, a harsh, cruel sound.“I watched him announce you as his bride and saw you smiling like a fool. It all made sense. You’re so cheap! When I first saw you, all I had to do was take you out on some nice dates and as stupid as you are, you fell for me. You still have a choice—me or Mello. But now, it dawned on me that I’ve gotten Mello’s most prized possession.”Hot tears dropped from her eyes as the truth hit her. Everything had been a lie. The beautiful dates, the attention—it had all meant nothing to him. She felt sick to her stomach, realizing she’d been played and deceived.She couldn't hold herself from bursting out.“Stop this! It’s not true. You liked me. You said you loved me!” she screamed through her tears.Ray’s expression hardened. “Like you? Never! I was just using you to get reve

Ray was about to assault Lisa when suddenly his phone rang. He paused, withdrawing from her, and answered the call. Lisa lay there sobbing, too terrified to move.“Okay, I’ll be there soon,” Ray said into the phone. “Thanks,” he added, then ended the call.He shot Lisa one last cold look and walked out of the room. Lisa heard the door lock behind him. A few minutes later, she heard the sound of a car driving away.Desperately, Lisa got up and rushed to the door, pounding on it with all her strength, but it didn’t even budge. Her tears flowed freely as she sank to the floor, feeling overwhelmed with guilt and self-blame for trusting so easilyAs she sat on the floor, her mind raced with thoughts of Jessica. She wondered if her friend was okay. The image of Jessica lying unconscious in the parking lot haunted her. Guilt and worry gripped her heart. She wished she had been able to stay with Jessica, to make sure she was safe. Now, all Lisa could do was hope that Jessica had received help

Anna wrapped her arms around Mello and held him tightly. "She's going to be fine, Mello. It wasn't your fault," she said, her voice soothing as she shared in his pain.Mello sniffled, his voice filled with regret. "It’s always been my fault. She was happy without me all these months. Now, all I’m bringing her is pain. I don’t know...""Shhh, stop being so harsh on yourself," Anna said gently.Anna looked at Mello with determination. “She’ll be seen before dawn. She’ll be here dancing in your arms,” she assured him.Just then, Kelan rushed in with security personnel. Anna quickly disengaged from Mello and turned to them.Before Mello could say anything, Anna spoke urgently, “Have you seen her? Is she safe? Is she outside? Please, bring her here.”Kelan breathed hard before responding. “We haven’t found her yet, but we did manage to capture one of the men who came with Ray. He’s in our custody.”At the mention of this, Mello jumped up. “Take me to him.”Anna tried to follow, but Mello s

soon Morning came, but Mello hadn’t slept. Every time he tried, he’d wake up from a different nightmare about Lisa. His mind replayed dark scenes of her in danger, helpless and scared, and he couldn't shake them off.The room was cool, but he felt unbearably hot, his skin clammy with sweat. His thoughts raced, and his chest felt tight. All he wanted was for Lisa to be safe, and the thought of not knowing where she was or what was happening to her was driving him to the edge.Mello rubbed his head gently, trying to ease the pounding ache. The bright light in the room made him squint as he looked around. The morning sun streamed in through the slightly open window, casting warm rays across the floor. He realized he had fallen asleep in the living room. Slowly getting up, he glanced around, disoriented. The weight of everything that had happened yesterday hung heavy on him. The room felt empty and too quiet, the silence only amplifying his worry for Lisa.Mello got up and rubbed his tir

" Where the hell did you keep her! "Mello angered with a blow to Ray's cheek.Ray's head snapped to the side from the force of the blow. He spat out more blood, grinning through the pain. "You think beating me will get you what you want?" he taunted, his voice hoarse but mocking. "I’ve been through worse."Mello's patience was wearing thin. His fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white. "Tell me where she is!" he shouted, his voice cracking with a mix of anger and desperation.Ray laughed again, low and sinister. "You’ll have to do better than that," he said, his eyes gleaming with malice. "I’m the only one who knows where she is, and you’ll have to play by my rules if you want to see her alive."Mello's fury boiled over. He grabbed Ray by the collar, lifting him from the chair. "I will break you," Mello snarled through gritted teeth, "and I’ll find her, with or without your help"**Sir Ren sat in his office that early morning, his usually bright eyes clouded with a di

A knock echoed through Sir Ren's office door before it creaked open, and Sean strode in with a casual confidence. His broad frame filled the doorway for a moment before he stepped in fully, stretching his arms and popping his knuckles as he moved. The sound was sharp and deliberate, like someone readying themselves for a fight.He let out a long sigh, a smirk playing on his lips as he approached Sir Ren’s desk. Without waiting for an invitation, he dropped into the chair opposite Ren, his expression amused. He chuckled softly, a short, devilish laugh that hinted at mischief or perhaps something darker."Well, well, seems like there's some chaos in the air," Sean said, his eyes gleaming with anticipation. "What’s the game today, Boss? I’m guessing it’s not a social call. I've been on break for far too long."Sir Ren's smile widened, his eyes narrowing with a cold, calculating gleam. "I see you're already thinking ahead, Sean," he said, leaning back in his chair. "That’s exactly why I k

Sean picked up his phone and began dialing numbers with swift, practiced movements. Each call was brief but urgent, as he reached out to his network of informants scattered across the city. The minutes ticked by, each call yielding little useful information until finally, one of his contacts answered with a shaky voice. “Sean, I’ve got something,” the informant said, a note of excitement in his tone. “I saw Ray last night, right after he took Lisa. I’ve been tracking him since.” Sean’s attention sharpened. “Where did he go? Give me the details.” The informant quickly relayed the information. “He headed towards the woods on the edge of town. It’s a rundown area, easy to miss. The exact spot is a place not known to all . It’s secluded, not a place many people go. I'll make the area on the map and send it to you” Sean’s mind raced as he took down the location. “Thanks for the tip. I’ll handle it from here.” He hung up and immediately ignited the engine. The car came to life wi
