Three years ago, a once-mighty warlord married the heiress of a powerful family to honor his late grandfather’s will. What was meant to be a shield of protection soon turned into a personal hell. Weakened and stripped of his former glory, he became the target of scorn and cruelty from his wife’s family. When betrayal struck from those closest to her, tearing apart everything she had built, walking away seemed like the only option. But her husband refused to give up—on their marriage, on her, or on himself. With the brilliant mind and tactical genius that once made him a legend, he vowed to take back everything that had been stolen. Amid family intrigue, hidden conspiracies, and enemies lurking in the shadows, they uncover a truth: true strength isn’t found in the body, but in an unyielding heart. And as betrayal pulls them closer, could the love they’ve long ignored finally take root?

Chapter 1: Fragments Between Us
The soft squeak of wheels echoed as Damien Harlow rolled into the study. His wheelchair was simple, a stark contrast to the opulence that defined the Stratton family. Yet his presence cut through the silence like a knife.In the corner of the room, Celeste Stratton sat upright in an armchair. Her dark brown eyes stared blankly out the large window overlooking the bustling cityscape of Lunaris. A porcelain teacup rested in her hands, but her mind was clearly miles away.Damien paused at the doorway, observing his wife lost in her thoughts. The sharp lines of her face and the slight lift of her chin spoke of a woman accustomed to control. Yet there was a subtle weariness she couldn’t quite hide, even behind her cold and composed exterior.Before Damien could say a word, Celeste broke the silence. Her voice was sharp and cutting, like shards of broken glass.“You’re leaving again, aren’t you?” she asked without turning. Her tone was flat, but each word dripped with anger she’d been holdi

His steps were heavy, his face was tense, and his mind was filled with anger and disappointment.After failing to secure a partnership with Xoldex, he certainly didn’t dare to go home. His grandmother’s cold gaze terrified him. He didn’t want to show his failure to anyone at this moment.In the corner of the room, on a large sofa surrounded by beautiful women, sat Varel Luthan. He was both Adrian’s best friend and business partner—someone who always managed to find an opportunity in any situation. Varel turned and grinned widely as he saw Adrian approaching.“Adrian!” he called out before chuckling. “You look like someone who just lost everything. Did you lose a bet again?”Adrian scoffed and sat beside Varel without saying a word. With a sour expression, he poured himself a drink

Everyone immediately turned toward the source of the voice. A middle-aged man in an elegant suit walked closer. His face was calm, yet there was an undeniable aura of authority surrounding him."Mr. Lincoln!" the receptionist called out politely as she stood up.Adrian quickly turned around, trying to regain his composure. He knew the man before him—Lawrence Lincoln, the CEO of Xoldex, a powerful figure in the world of technology business."Mr. Lincoln," Adrian said in a lowered tone, attempting to sound polite despite the anger still burning within him. "I'm here to sign the partnership contract. I'm Adrian Stratton, the new director of Novatek."Lincoln observed Adrian for a moment before glancing at the receptionist, who swiftly explained the situation. After hearing the explanation, Lincoln returned his gaze to Adrian, his expression unreadable."Mr. Stratton, I'm not aware of your new position at Novatek. What I do know is that all offic

Damien frowned, staring sharply at Celeste. “Is Adrian tired of living? That quick, and he’s already out for revenge. Sure, he’s your brother, but I’m the one who hit him. This has nothing to do with you. Let me handle it.”Celeste shook her head immediately, her eyes red with deep worry. “No!” she snapped, her voice trembling.Damien paused, surprised by her reaction. Usually, Celeste was composed and kept her distance from him. But now, her worry was evident, raw.“Don’t make this worse,” Celeste said, her voice softening to the point of pleading. “He could do something even worse to you. I know my brother’s character.”Damien stood silently, watching her intently. Celeste looked genuinely distressed.“That spoiled jerk,” she continued, “isn’t just pampered; he’s cruel. With the money and power our grandmother gave him, he could take anyone out if he wanted to.”Damien looked at Celeste thoughtfully. Her face clearly showed fear—not just for herself but for him, too.“There’s more,”

Celeste grabbed Damien's arm firmly, stopping him from turning away.“Mom, let him in!” she said sharply, her voice laced with determination.Eleanor, who had been ready to shut the door in Damien’s face, looked at her daughter in shock.“Celeste, he’s—” Eleanor started to argue, but Celeste cut her off.Celeste knew if she let Damien leave now, Adrian would probably hire thugs to beat him up. Damien had hit Adrian for her sake. There was no way she could leave him to deal with the fallout on his own.“He’s my husband, Mom!” Celeste declared, her voice rising.Those words made Eleanor freeze. She couldn’t believe Celeste was speaking like this. For as long as Eleanor could remember, Celeste had shown nothing but disdain for Damien. She treated their marriage as the biggest mistake of her life. But now, here she was, standing up for him against her own mother.Feeling defeated, Eleanor sighed and turned to head upstairs. She didn’t say another word, but the heavy stomp of her footsteps

Adrian swung his fist in a fit of rage, but Damien moved with surprising speed. Even in a wheelchair, his movements were precise. With a quick motion, he caught Adrian's wrist before the punch could land on his face.The grip was so strong it sounded like something cracked. Adrian screamed in pain, his piercing cry echoing through the room and freezing everyone in the Stratton family. “Aaaah!” he yelled, clutching at Damien's hand, trying to break free.Damien stared at Adrian with cold, unwavering eyes. The tense atmosphere in the room shifted into a suffocating silence, broken only by Adrian’s ragged breaths and the faint creak of Damien’s wheelchair moving slightly forward. Still holding Adrian’s wrist, Damien spoke, his voice low but cutting through the air like a blade.“Celeste is my wife,” he said firmly, directing his gaze to everyone in the room, who looked on in shock. “From now on, no one is allowed to mess with her. Consider this your warning.”With that, Damien released A

The Stratton family meeting room had been tense from the very beginning. The atmosphere was heavy, palpable to anyone present. However, the tension shifted when Damien Harlow, with unwavering confidence, spoke as though he could foresee the future and the fate of the Stratton family.Adrian Stratton was the first to break the silence, his mocking laughter echoing throughout the room.“What did you say? I’ll bring ruin?” he sneered, his voice dripping with contempt. “Look at yourself! Besides your crippled legs, are you blind too? Can’t you see that I’m the one driving the company’s growth lately with all the new investments pouring in? Absolutely ridiculous.”Adrian’s laughter was met with light jeers from a few other family members, including Eleanor Stratton, Celeste’s mother, who stared at Damien with a cold, disdainful expression. Margaret Stratton, Celeste’s grandmother, even smirked from her corner of the room, as if reveling in the humiliation of the man she deemed unworthy of

Celeste’s brother had always been the family’s favorite—an ambitious man who would stop at nothing to get what he wanted.“Celeste,” Adrian said in a commanding tone, “hand over the family business. You know it should have been mine from the start. You’re only holding onto it because of grandma’s pity.”Celeste stood tall in front of her brother, her face flushed with anger. “Pity?” she snapped, her voice filled with emotion. “I worked hard to build that company from nothing! You have no idea what I’ve been through!”Margaret raised her hand, signaling them to stop. Her wrinkled face bore both wisdom and authority. “Enough,” she

Damien knew his time with Celeste was running out. If he wanted to prove himself, he had to act fast. But every step forward felt like smashing into a brick wall—an insurmountable challenge for a man still confined to a wheelchair.What nobody knew, not even Celeste, was that Damien had secretly joined a classified military rehab program. This program, designed for severely injured war veterans, offered a chance to recover using experimental methods.The program wasn’t cheap, though. Damien had to fund it himself after leaving the military and cutting all ties. He’d also abandoned his past as one of the most influential people in the country, effectively erasing his identity from everyone who once knew him.For the past year, Damien had been disappearing for a few days each month to attend rehab sessions. These weren’t just about physical recovery—they involved intense mental training and martial arts to regain control over his body. Although he wasn’t back to his Grandmaster peak yet

The room was eerily quiet, as if soaking up all the tension in the air. Damien tried to stand, reaching out to hug a distraught Celeste. For a fleeting moment, Celeste thought a miracle had entered their lives—but then Damien collapsed from his wheelchair onto the floor with a thud that was both painful and humiliating.Lying there, Damien didn’t move. Pain coursed through his body, but it was nothing compared to the ache in his heart. Celeste stood a few steps away, her expression unreadable—a mix of anger, despair, and emotional exhaustion.“Damien,” Celeste finally broke the silence, her voice cold and laced with bitterness. “What exactly are you trying to prove? You can’t even stand on your own, yet here you are, still trying. Do you seriously think I’ll keep waiting for you to fight a losing battle?”Damien looked up, meeting her sharp gaze. He opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out.Celeste sighed deeply, stepping closer with an envelope in hand. She’d just retrieved i
