The Slumdog Billionaire 131. Plane Crash
The plane shuddered again, a deafening explosion rocking the cabin. Henry tightened his grip on the edge of the doorframe, his voice cutting through the chaos.“Simon, status!” he barked.Simon’s voice crackled over the intercom, strained but clear. “We’re losing altitude! They’ve taken out one of the engines. We’ve got minutes, maybe less.”Henry turned to Léa, his gaze fierce. “You still think this is suicide?”Léa loaded her gun with a sharp click, her expression hardening. “If it is, I’m taking a few of them with me.”“Good,” Henry said. “Because there’s no turning back now.”The sound of bullets ripping through the plane’s exterior filled the cabin, the metallic screeches clawing at their ears. Henry kicked open the side hatch, the icy wind howling as it rushed in, whipping against their faces and stinging their skin.“Stay low!” he shouted over the roaring wind. “We need to hold them off until Simon gets us closer to the ground.”Léa pressed her back against the wall, her finger
The Slumdog Billionaire 133. Billionaire’s Side Job
The boardroom buzzed with tension, a low hum of murmurs rippling through the crowd of executives seated at the sleek glass table. At the head of it all, Henry leaned back in his chair, his sharp, tailored suit immaculate despite the war brewing in the room. He exuded a quiet, dangerous confidence, his gaze cutting across the room like a blade.“Mr. Knight,” began Richard, one of the senior board members. His tone was a calculated mix of arrogance and politeness. “This… proposal of yours—buying out LuxCorp at a premium—feels reckless. Their stock is plummeting. They’re dead weight.”Henry smirked, his fingers drumming rhythmically on the table. The sound was subtle yet commanding, silencing the murmurs.“You think LuxCorp is dead weight, Richard?” he asked, his voice cool and deliberate. “That’s because you lack vision. It’s not their present value that matters. It’s what they can become.”A snide laugh came from another corner of the table. Victoria, the CFO, leaned forward, her manic
The Slumdog Billionaire 124. The Gamble
Henry stood by the towering windows of his penthouse office, the city sprawled below like a glittering jewel. The faint hum of the espresso machine on the side table mingled with the faint tick of the clock. His phone vibrated on the desk behind him, but he ignored it. Tonight was too important for distractions. He had spent years building this empire, clawing his way up from the trenches, and now, every decision he made had the power to reshape industries.“Mr. Knight,” Callie’s voice interrupted his thoughts as she entered the office briskly. Her heels clicked against the marble floor, her expression sharp. “The deal is on the line. You need to be at the gala. They won’t wait forever.”Henry turned, his gaze cool but unwavering. “Let them sweat. They need this partnership more than I do.”Callie arched an eyebrow. “You’re confident as ever. But LuxCorp isn’t out of the woods yet. If this merger falls through—”“It won’t,” Henry interrupted, his voice calm but with a dangerous edge

Chapter One Hundred And Twenty Four Jasmine burst into the living room, her face glowing with excitement. “Henry! You won’t believe it!” she exclaimed, holding her tablet tightly. Her voice was high-pitched with joy, and her steps were quick and bouncy as she moved closer to him. Henry looked up from the newspaper he was pretending to read, setting it down on the coffee table. “What’s got you so excited?” he asked, already smiling because her enthusiasm was contagious. “I have a meeting with the HEXAGON CONSORTIUM!” she practically screamed, flinging her arms into the air. Henry blinked. “The trillion-dollar HEXAGON CONSORTIUM? The one everyone talks about on the news?” “Yes, that one!” Jasmine nodded eagerly. “They’re considering partnering with me on my project, and I need to make the best impression.” She paused, catching her breath. “But Henry, I don’t want to be distracted on the way. Can you drive me there? Please?” He hesitated for only a fraction of a second. He had

Chapter One Hundred And Twenty Five Anastasia’s eyes wandered over the man standing with his back to her. There was something about his presence—strong, commanding. His broad shoulders seemed carved from stone, his hair neat and thick, radiating a kind of effortless authority. His aura was magnetic, almost intimidating, even though his outfit was plain and unremarkable. “Could it be him?” she whispered under her breath. Her heart raced at the thought. “The president of the HEXAGON CONSORTIUM?” She had heard the rumors—he was young, elusive, and incredibly powerful. Few people had ever seen him up close. Anastasia’s lips curled into a sly smile as her mind raced. This was her chance, her opportunity. If it was him, she wasn’t going to let it slip through her fingers. “I have to try my luck,” she muttered, adjusting her blouse and letting her neckline plunge just enough to reveal the fullness of her chest. Her breasts looked round and inviting, almost spilling out, perfectly set

Chapter One Hundred And Twenty Six Anastasia was called into the HR office late in the afternoon. She walked in, her head still held high despite the morning’s humiliation. The HR manager, a calm and professional woman named Mrs. Lawson, greeted her with a polite smile.“Miss Anastasia, please have a seat,” Mrs. Lawson began, gesturing to the chair across her desk. Anastasia sat down, crossing her legs and waiting for whatever this meeting was about. “We’ve reviewed your performance and discussed your contributions to the company,” Mrs. Lawson said, her voice measured. “The management has decided to assign you a new role.” “A new role?” Anastasia raised an eyebrow. “Yes,” Mrs. Lawson confirmed, sliding a paper across the desk. “You will now be the supervisor of the engineering fieldwork team. This means you’ll be responsible for overseeing multiple on-site projects. It’s a challenging role but comes with a significant allowance increase.” Anastasia’s eyes scanned the paper.

Chapter One Hundred And Twenty Seven Jasper led Anastasia into a small coffee shop on the corner of a bustling street. The place was far from glamorous—plastic chairs, wobbly tables, and a lingering smell of burnt toast filled the air. Anastasia raised an eyebrow but didn’t say anything. She followed him to a table in the corner, silently lamenting her decision to come. “This is nice, right?” Jasper said, grinning as he pulled out her chair like a gentleman. Anastasia forced a smile. “It’s... cozy,” she replied, glancing around. Jasper didn’t seem to notice her sarcasm. He waved over the waitress and ordered two coffees and a small plate of pastries. “Coffee and snacks, just to start,” he said confidently. “Then we’ll have some wine. It’ll be a great evening.” Anastasia nodded, though her hopes for the evening were dwindling fast. She sipped her coffee in silence, watching Jasper fidget nervously. He talked endlessly, bragging about the imaginary wealth he didn’t have. “

Chapter One Hundred And Twenty Eight Anastasia stormed out of the restaurant, her heels striking the pavement like tiny hammers. She spun around, her chest heaving with anger, and faced Jasper, who strolled after her with that infuriating smug grin on his face. “You’re completely insane, Jasper!” she shouted, jabbing a finger at him. “You smashed a bottle on that man’s head! What were you thinking?” Jasper shrugged, wiping at the dried blood near his lips with the back of his hand. “Relax, Ana. Did you see how fast he ran off? He was terrified of me. That’s what happens when you mess with a guy like me.” “Terrified? No! You assaulted him, you idiot!” she snapped, her voice trembling with rage. “Do you have any idea what you’ve done? He disappeared, Jasper. There was blood everywhere!” “Good. That’s what he gets for disrespecting me,” Jasper said with a wave of his hand, as though that justified his actions. “Nobody interrupts my date and walks away without learning a lesson.”

This wasn’t just about survival anymore—this was about vengeance, reclaiming control, and making Marcus pay for everything he’d done.“Stand down, Marcus,” Henry growled, his voice resonating with a depth that wasn’t entirely human. The light from the ring spread faintly up his arm, sending tendrils of energy into the air.Marcus, flanked by his soldiers, seemed unfazed. If anything, his smirk deepened, his eyes gleaming with amusement. “You think that little trinket makes you untouchable?” he mocked, gesturing to the glowing ring. “Power like that comes with strings, Henry. And you’re not the one holding them.”Henry took a step forward, his jaw clenched. “You made a m

The rumble of approaching helicopters shook the air, their lights cutting through the smoke-filled chaos of the battlefield. But Henry's mind was somewhere else, focused on the mysterious words Marcus had left behind and the burning heat radiating from the silver ring on his finger.**It had always been there—a family heirloom passed down through generations of the Caine line. Henry had worn it without thought, but now it felt alive, pulsing with an unnatural warmth. His grip tightened around Jasmine, who clung to him as they crouched behind the wreckage, Eva scanning the surroundings with her rifle."Henry," Jasmine whispered, her voice trembling. "Your hand... it's glowing."He looked down and saw it: faint, silvery-blue lines snaking from the ring, curling up his hand like living veins of light. The heat intensified, but it didn’t burn. Instead, it filled him with a sense of power, a kind of clarity that cut through the chaos around him."What the hell is this?" he muttered under h

Every second was a test of survival.Henry’s jaw was clenched tight, his eyes razor-sharp as he assessed their impossible situation.

She reloaded her rifle with practiced efficiency, her fingers moving quickly despite the blood dripping from her temple.“Agreed,” Henry said, his voice low but full of command. “Jasmine, stay down and don’t move until I tell you.”Jasmine’s heart pounded as she nodded, her hand resting prot

The compound's alarm blared through the night, a piercing sound that shattered the fragile silence. Jasmine bolted upright in bed, her heart hammering against her ribs. Across the room, Henry was already on his feet, his instincts sharp and honed.“What’s happening?” Jasmine whispered, her voice trembling as she clutched the blanket.Henry grabbed his gun from the nightstand, his expression grim. “We’re under attack.”Before Jasmine could respond, the door burst open, and Eva stormed in, her rifle slung over her shoulder. Her face was hard, her eyes scanning the room like a predator assessing its surroundings.“They’re coming in hot,” Eva said, her voice cutting through the blaring alarm. “East wall’s been breached. Armed convoy—military grade.”Jasmine’s stomach twisted in fear. “Who is it? How did they find us?”Henry exchanged a dark look with Eva. “There’s a mole,” he muttered. “And they’ve brought an army.”Eva nodded curtly. “We have minutes, maybe seconds. We need to move.”---

The cabin’s serene isolation was shattered by a thunderous explosion that rocked the very foundation. The force threw Jasmine from the bed, her body colliding with the hard floor as shards of glass from the window rained down around her.

Jasmine lay in Henry's arms, her skin still tingling from the intensity of their connection. The fire crackled softly in the background, casting warm shadows that danced across the walls. Henry’s hand rested on her hip, his thumb brushing lazy circles against her skin, sending small shivers coursing through her body.She shifted slightly, turning to face him. His dark eyes met hers, filled with a blend of tenderness and desire that made her heart skip a beat. She reached up, tracing her fingers along his jawline, marveling at how someone so strong, so protective, could also make her feel so cherished.“You’re quiet,” she whispered, her voice soft but teasing. “What are you thinking about?”Henry’s lips curved into a small smile as his hand slid up to rest on her waist. “You,” he replied simply. “And how impossible it feels to stop touching you.”Her cheeks flushed, and she let out a soft laugh, her fingers trailing down to his chest. “Good,” she murmured, leaning closer until their fa
