Both Damien and Bradley spun around, their movements almost synchronized, driven by shock. Standing behind them in the warehouse was a figure Damien never expected to see. His breath caught in his throat as his eyes locked onto the man’s face. The recognition was instant, almost as if time had slowed down. It was his uncle, Derek. The man his father had warned him about, his father showed him his picture on his phone. The man who had haunted his nightmares for years. The number one suspect in everything that had gone wrong.“You!”Damien’s voice trembled with a mixture of disbelief and fury. His hands balled into fists at his sides, every muscle in his body tensing as if preparing for a fight.Derek’s face twisted into a cruel smile as he nodded his head slowly, enjoying the shock and anger on Damien’s face. “Don’t act surprised, Damien,” Derek said, his voice cold and filled venomous. “I’ve known for a long time that you and your father were planning something. I could see it in hi
Both of them know they need to get him to the hospital immediately if he's going to save his son.Benjamin wasted no time as he hoisted the young master onto his back; that was the only thing he could think of at that moment.With Lord Barron clutching tightly to his son's hands, and he walked alongside Benjamin. With swift, determined strides, they ran out of the warehouse, leaving Derek's body behind. The boss was still in shock because of what he just witnessed.Lord Barron killed his brother right in front of him, and the manner in which he did it.He's a beast.He couldn't move a muscle at that moment; his entire body was paralyzed by the shock. He knew he couldn't escape, not in the position he was in. Even if he managed to escape, they would find him. Even if he managed to escape and travel somewhere far away, they would catch him, no matter what.They came outside the warehouse, and Benjamin and Lord Barron quickly got into the car. Immediately, the car engine roared to lif
The room was filled with a thick tension as Lord Barron, tall and imposing, stood at the entrance, his piercing eyes locked on the trembling doctor before him.At that moment, the doctor found himself struggling to form words.His hands, usually steady, were now clenched tightly together, and a cold sweat began to form on his brow. He had never been this intimidated by anyone before, but the presence of Lord Barron was something entirely different.Lord Barron, his voice deep and commanding, broke the silence again. “How is my son?” He demanded, his tone leaving no room for hesitation.At that moment, the doctor swallowed hard, feeling the weight of the moment pressing down on him. He knew he had no choice but to answer, even though the words seemed to stick in his throat. “Lord Barron” He began, his voice shaky but growing stronger with each word, “Your son… he lost a lot of blood. It was a close call, but we managed to stabilize him and did the surgery successfully.”At that mo
Two weeks had passed since the accident, and Damien was finally being discharged from the hospital. The ordeal had taken its toll, but as he stepped out of the hospital doors and breathed in the fresh air, a wave of relief washed over him. He was back at his father’s house on Blueberry Island, a serene place with its gentle waves lapping against the shore, where the scent of the sea always lingered in the air. His mother was there, standing by the door, her eyes brimming with tears of joy. Everyone wants to visit here, and she is seeing and experiencing it herself. Megan had been by his side throughout his recovery, but she wasn’t there today. She had to leave earlier because of an urgent message from her mother. Still, the comfort of having his family around him was enough for now. He was glad his parents had finally talked, and his mother had accepted his father’s offer. For the first time in a long while, Damien felt like everything was going to be alright; he doesn't have anythi
At that moment, the room fell into a heavy silence. Megan’s heart, pounding so hard she thought it might burst out of her chest. She couldn’t believe what just happened without being told she could tell Sean is doing all of this just to get to her and make her jealous, but it's not going to work instead she smiled.This wasn’t just about a marriage proposal; it was a calculated move, a way to assert control and power. Sean’s eyes never left Megan’s as he waited for Olivia’s response, a twisted smirk playing on his lips.He was expecting Megan to react or something, but instead she was smiling. What the hell has gotten into her?Olivia’s eyes flew open, her breath caught in her throat. Her heart pounded in her chest as beads of sweat formed on her brow. She wasn't expecting this, Without wasting any time, she said immediately.“Yes, yes, I will marry you.”The word barely escaped her lips when she realized the gravity of what she had just agreed to—she would marry Sean. Lady Helen, s
At that moment terry and Doris looked at her in shock, their eyes widening as they processed her words. But as they opened the box and saw the beautifully crafted invitation inside, their expressions softened. This was Megan’s way of moving forward, of creating her own path despite the chaos that surrounded them. And at that moment, they knew they would stand by her, no matter what.However, they could feel the quality of the invitation card. It doesn't look ordinary without being told they could tell it was something so expensive.Megan’s smile, genuine this time, lingered as she looked at her parents. She felt a sense of peace and shock in their faces she hadn’t felt in a long time. She had made her choice, and she was ready to face whatever comes next. With Damien by her side, they didn't do a proper wedding the first time, and Lord Barron said they were going to do one, and he's going to use the opportunity to announce Damien to the world.Terry and Doris stood in their positi
The day was finally here—the day of the Bernard x Hernandez wedding. They decided to use the Sky High Hotel, one of the most prestigious venues in the city, buzzing with excitement.

Doris and Terry stood frozen in their position, their eyes wide with shock as they looked at Lord Barron standing before them. The air around them seemed to thicken, making it hard to breathe, as the realization slowly dawned on them. Damien, who was standing close to Lord Barron, had a look of both pride and excitement on his face. He was really happy, and he and Lord Barron were chatting as if they were friends. However, there was also a slight tension in Doris' eyes, as if she were trying hard not to acknowledge something to herself; she was struggling to believe where her mind was taking her. The resemblance between Damien and Lord Barron was unmistakable, and it struck Doris like a bolt of lightning. Could Damien be Lord Barron’s son? The thought was too wild, too shocking to even entertain. She quickly dismissed it, trying to keep her composure, but the idea lingered, gnawing at the edges of her mind.Damien saw Megan's parents standing there without being told; he could t
