The Slumdog Billionaire 160. The Billionaire’s Wife Doesn’t Know His Idnetuty
Chapter One Hundred and Sixty The explosion rattled the compound, shaking the walls and sending debris flying into the air. Alarms blared, and lights flickered as Henry stood unmoved, his gaze fixed on the gates. Jasmine clung to his arm, her heart pounding.“They’re here,” she whispered, her voice trembling.Henry glanced at her, his face unreadable. “Stay close to me. No matter what happens, don’t leave my side.”The air was thick with tension as the tactical team inside the compound scrambled into defensive positions. Guns were loaded, commands shouted, and the gates creaked ominously under the pressure of the advancing assault.Another explosion rocked the gates, blowing them off their hinges. Smoke billowed into the compound as masked figures poured in, their weapons drawn and their movements precise. The room fell into chaos as Henry’s team opened fire, engaging the intruders in a fierce battle.“Henry, we can’t stay here!” Jasmine shouted over the deafening noise. “They’ll ove

Chapter One Hundred and SixtyThe command center buzzed with static and the low hum of screens resetting after the ominous transmission. Jasmine stood frozen, her heart pounding as Stella’s terrified face replayed in her mind. The masked figure’s voice echoed in her ears: “Now, the real game begins.”“Henry…” she whispered, her voice trembling as she turned to the monitors. “They have her.”Henry’s footsteps echoed as he strode back into the room, his face calm but his eyes burning with quiet fury. His tactical suit was dusted with dirt, his knuckles bloodied from the fight above.“They’re trying to bait me,” he said, his voice low and measured. “It’s a trap.”Jasmine stepped toward him, desperation in her voice. “But it’s Stella! They’ll kill her if you don’t do something.”Henry’s jaw tightened. He walked to the central console, his fingers flying across the keyboard. “They won’t kill her yet. Not until they think I’ve made my move. She’s leverage.”Jasmine grabbed his arm, forcing

Chapter One Hundred and Sixty TwoThe armored convoy sped through the empty streets, its tires screeching with urgency. Inside, Stella sat in silence, her hands trembling as she clutched the blanket one of Henry’s operatives had handed her. She kept glancing at Henry, his face stoic, his eyes cold with a dangerous resolve. Beside him, Jasmine sat rigid, her own panic barely contained.“Henry,” Jasmine whispered, her voice breaking. “What’s happening? Is the safe house compromised?”Henry didn’t look at her, his hands gripping the wheel tightly as they weaved through the city. “It’s worse than that. They’ve breached our secondary defenses.”Stella’s voice cracked, her fear bubbling over. “What does that mean? Are they coming for me again?”“No,” Henry said sharply, his eyes flickering to Stella for a moment. “You were just a pawn to lure me out. Now they’re after the real prize—Jasmine.”Jasmine’s heart skipped a beat. “Me? Why me?”“Because you’re my weakness,” Henry said, his voice h

Chapter One Hundred and Forty-NineThe underground compound buzzed with tension as the words “The real betrayal lies within” echoed through the darkened room. Henry’s eyes locked onto the blank screen, his jaw clenched tightly. Jasmine, frozen in place, stared at him with growing fear and confusion.“What does that mean?” she whispered, her voice cracking. “What betrayal?”Henry didn’t respond immediately. Instead, he turned to the lead operative at the console, his voice cold and controlled. “Trace the signal. I want to know exactly where that feed came from.”“Already working on it, sir,” the operative replied, his fingers flying over the keyboard.Henry exhaled sharply, his mind racing. He knew the message wasn’t just a taunt. It was deliberate, calculated—a move designed to pull at his weakest point. Jasmine.“Henry,” Jasmine pressed, stepping closer to him. “Tell me what’s going on. Why would they say my family… Stella… betrayed us?”Henry turned to face her, his expression unrea
The Slumdog Billionaire 164. The Slumdog’s Private Jet
The jet hummed quietly as it cut through the night sky. Henry sat near the cockpit, his jaw tight, his gaze fixed on the horizon. Across from him, Jasmine sat stiffly, her hands clasped in her lap. The events of the night replayed in her mind, each revelation cutting deeper.She leaned forward, breaking the silence. “Henry, what happens now? That message… it means they’re not finished.”Henry’s eyes didn’t leave the window. “They think they still have a chance. But by the time they regroup, there won’t be anything left for them to salvage.”Jasmine frowned, her voice trembling. “What do you mean?”“They underestimated me once. I’ve already set the wheels in motion to dismantle what’s left of their network.”Jasmine’s breath hitched. “But this isn’t just about taking them down, is it? There’s something more.”Henry exhaled slowly. “The De Luca family wasn’t acting alone. They’re part of a much larger web—a web I’ve spent years unraveling.”Her chest tightened. “You’ve known this whole
The Slumdog Billionaire 165.The SUV CONVOY
The convoy of sleek black vehicles sped toward the Caine estate, cutting through the night like shadows on the move. Jasmine sat silently beside Henry, her hands clenched in her lap. The earlier revelations about her mother funding the De Luca family played over and over in her mind, each detail gnawing at her resolve. She stole a glance at Henry, his face a mask of cold determination, his mind undoubtedly calculating the next move.The tension in the car was palpable. Finally, she broke the silence. “Henry… what if she denies it? What if she had no idea what was happening?”Henry didn’t turn to her, his eyes locked on the road ahead. “If she’s innocent, the evidence will prove it. But if she’s guilty…” He paused, his voice hardening. “She’ll face the consequences.”Jasmine’s breath hitched. “You’d go that far? Even if she’s my mother?”Henry finally turned to her, his gaze softer but firm. “Jasmine, this isn’t just about us anymore. If your mother is involved, she’s not just a threat
The Slumdog Billionaire 166. Evil Mother Inlaw
The room was frozen in a thick tension, every breath coming slow and heavy. Jasmine looked between Henry and her mother, her face pale and her mind racing. She was about to speak when the sound of hurried footsteps echoed through the grand hall.The doors burst open, revealing a woman in her mid-sixties, dressed in an oversized floral gown and sturdy slippers that made her presence feel more dominating than any weapon could. Her face was set in a fierce scowl, her sharp features pulled tight as her gaze immediately zeroed in on Henry.“Henry Caine!” she bellowed, storming into the room without a care for the grandeur around her. “You think you can embarrass my daughter and her fiancé in front of the entire congregation and get away with it?”Jasmine flinched, recognizing the fiery presence of her Aunt Patricia, her mother’s older sister, who was infamous for speaking her mind without restraint. Evelyn’s calm façade broke as she stood up quickly, her sharp tone cutting through.“Patric
The Slumdog Billionaire 167.The Grand Commander General
The sun was just beginning to set when Henry stood outside the estate, leaning against the sleek black car. The orange glow of twilight brushed his sharp features as he thought about Evelyn’s words, the lies she had spun, and the deeper trap he might have walked into. The air was heavy, filled with the faint scent of jasmine from the estate’s sprawling gardens, but Henry wasn’t in the mood to appreciate the beauty. His mind was a storm. Suddenly, a rickety old cart clattered down the gravel driveway. A man, hunched over with a woven hat shadowing his face, pushed the cart. It was piled high with potatoes, their earthy smell wafting in the air as the wheels squeaked with every turn. Henry frowned. “Who let him in here?” he muttered to himself. The man approached, his movements deliberate but unassuming. As he neared, Henry noticed his ragged clothes and dirt-stained hands. But there was something oddly off. His stride, though hidden under a limping shuffle, was too calculated. T

175. The Bastardized Heir
The penthouse was dimly lit, the warm glow of candles casting flickering shadows across the room. Jasmine walked in cautiously, her breath catching at the sight before her. The space had been completely transformed. A trail of red rose petals led from the entrance, winding through the living room and up the stairs, each step illuminated by soft tea lights. The faint scent of jasmine and vanilla filled the air, mingling with the sound of a slow, sultry jazz melody playing in the background.Her heart raced as she followed the trail, her bare feet brushing against the soft petals. At the top of the stairs, the double doors to their bedroom were ajar, and golden light spilled through the crack. She pushed them open slowly, her eyes widening as she stepped inside.The room was bathed in a soft, golden glow. More candles lined every surface, their light dancing against the silk-draped canopy of the bed. A bottle of champagne sat chilling on a nearby table, two crystal flutes waiting beside

174. Passion
Jasmine stood in front of the large window of their penthouse, gazing out at the glittering city lights. The night was quiet, but her heart wasn’t. It raced with an unexplainable tension that had built over the evening. Her fingers traced the edge of the silk robe she wore, the fabric light against her skin, yet somehow carrying the weight of her anticipation.Behind her, she felt the faintest shift in the air—a presence. She didn’t need to turn to know it was Henry. She could feel him, his energy wrapping around her like an invisible tether. “I couldn’t find you in bed,” he said, his voice low and husky, sending a ripple down her spine. “Were you thinking about me?”Jasmine smiled, her reflection meeting his in the glass. “Always.”The sound of his bare feet on the hardwood floors was soft, yet every step he took made her pulse quicken. In moments, his arms wrapped around her waist, his chest pressing against her back. She let out a small gasp as his lips brushed against her shoulde

173. The Passionate Son-in-law
Jasmine sat by the window, her legs curled beneath her as the late afternoon sun bathed her in its golden light. She gazed out at the city below, her heart still racing from the memories of the morning. Her fingers absently traced the edge of the glass, the coolness grounding her as her mind swirled with thoughts of Henry.She hadn’t known it could feel like this—so overwhelming, so consuming. Every touch, every kiss, had unraveled her, leaving her bare and vulnerable, but never more alive. Her chest rose and fell with a deep, steadying breath, but the longing that lingered in her heart was undeniable.The soft creak of the bedroom door pulled her from her thoughts. She turned, her eyes meeting Henry’s as he leaned against the frame, his shirt unbuttoned and hanging loosely, revealing the taut muscles of his chest. His dark eyes held a familiar intensity, one that sent a shiver racing through her body.“Penny for your thoughts?” he asked, his voice low and smooth, the kind of voice th

172. Love Under the moonlight
Henry leaned against the kitchen counter, a glass of water in his hand as the cool liquid soothed his parched throat. The morning sunlight streamed through the windows, casting golden rays across the marble surfaces. The house was silent, save for the faint hum of the city below, but his mind was far from calm. Thoughts of Jasmine—her soft laughter, the way her skin had glowed in the morning light—lingered like a heady fog.Jasmine appeared in the doorway, her silhouette framed by the soft light. She wore nothing but one of his oversized shirts, the fabric brushing just above her knees. Her hair was tousled, her cheeks still flushed from their earlier intimacy. The sight of her sent a wave of desire rushing through Henry’s veins, his breath catching as their eyes met.“You left me alone,” she said softly, her voice teasing but with an edge of vulnerability.Henry set the glass down, his gaze darkening as he took a step toward her. “I thought you were resting.”Her lips curved into a s

His body was warm, wrapped in the comfort of the plush sheets and the softness of Jasmine nestled beside him.He turned his head slightly, his eyes landing on her serene face. Her dark lashes rested against her cheeks, her lips slightly parted as she slept peacefully. Her hair cascaded over the pillow like silk, and the gentle rise and fall of her chest made his heart clench with a warmth he hadn’t felt in years.Henry couldn’t resist reaching out. His fingers brushed against her cheek, featherlight, and she stirred at the touch, her eyelids fluttering open. Her sleepy gaze met his, and a soft smile spread across her lips.“Good morning,” she murmured, her voice husky from sleep.“Good morning,” Henry replied, his voice low, filled with affection. His hand moved to tuck a stray strand of hair

The soft glow of the candles followed them as Henry scooped Jasmine into his arms. Her skin was still damp from the bath, warm and soft against his chest. She let out a quiet gasp, wrapping her arms around his neck, her lips brushing lightly against his jaw."Henry," she whispered, her voice a mix of nervousness and anticipation.He paused, his dark eyes meeting hers. "Are you sure, Jasmine?" His voice was low, filled with both tenderness and restraint. "I don’t want to rush this if you’re not ready."Her cheeks flushed, and she gave him a small, reassuring smile. "I’ve never been more ready for anything."The sincerity in her eyes made his chest tighten. With a soft nod, he carried her into the bedroom, the faint scent of lavender still lingering in the air. The golden light from the bedside lamp cast a warm glow over the room, the shadows of the night dancing along the walls.Henry set her down gently on the edge of the bed, his movements careful, reverent. He knelt before her, his

170. Sexy Shower Time
Henry staggered through the door of his penthouse, his body weighed down by exhaustion. The soft glow of the evening lights spilled through the windows, casting long shadows across the polished floors. He loosened his tie, his every muscle aching from the relentless grind of the last few weeks. His mind was fogged with exhaustion, but he couldn’t help the flicker of pride at what he’d accomplished.“Henry?” Jasmine’s soft voice floated from the bedroom. The sound was like a balm to his frayed nerves.“I’m here,” he called back, his voice rough. He dropped his briefcase by the door and ran a hand through his disheveled hair.Jasmine appeared in the doorway, her figure bathed in the warm light of the room. She wore a silk robe that clung to her curves, her eyes filled with concern as she crossed the room toward him.“You look like you’ve been through a war,” she said, brushing her fingers over his jaw. Her touch was featherlight, but it sent a spark of warmth through him.“It feels like

169. The prodigal son
Henry stormed out of the estate, his steps heavy and purposeful as the night air hit him like a slap to the face. The faint hum of the helicopters above was drowned out by the pounding of his heart. He clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white. His grandfather’s words echoed in his head, their sharp edges cutting deep.“You’re not family,” Henry muttered to himself, his voice trembling with barely contained rage. “I’m just another asset to him. Another chess piece.”The guards standing outside the gates straightened as Henry approached, their gazes wary. He shot them a glare so fierce that one of them visibly flinched.“Open the damn gate,” Henry snapped, his tone sharp enough to cut glass.The guard hesitated for a fraction of a second before obeying. The gates creaked open, and Henry strode out without sparing them another glance. The crunch of gravel beneath his feet was a harsh reminder of the cold reality he was leaving behind.Anderson caught up to him, his pa

168. The Grand Commander Of War
The room seemed to shrink as Henry’s grandfather stood. His every movement was deliberate, exuding a power so commanding it felt like the very air was holding its breath. The sharp lines of his tailored black suit amplified his imposing frame, and the insignia of the Grand Commander gleamed on his chest like a badge of omnipotence. His presence filled the room, an aura so intense it was almost tangible, crackling like an electrical storm.The two guards by the door immediately bowed, their heads lowered so deeply that they nearly touched the floor. Outside the study, Henry could hear the shuffle of footsteps and murmurs as more people fell to their knees, as if in reverence to a god descending from the heavens.Henry stood frozen, his jaw clenched, refusing to bow. His fists tightened at his sides as he watched the scene unfold. The man before him wasn’t just his grandfather—he was a living legend, a shadow that loomed over every story whispered in corridors of power.“Grand Commander
