CHAPTER 63 As the men were about to pounce on Adrian, they suddenly heard a gruffy voice from upstairs. "Who the hell is he?" Everyone stopped and looked in the direction of the voice. There were twenty more huge and fierce-looking men approaching, with their footsteps echoing ominously down the
Ignoring Bill's growling and threats, Adrian barked out orders to his men. "Release Lucy and Tara. Now!" The soldiers, without hesitation, set to work freeing Lt. Thompson's widow and her daughter without leaving out the other women and children around them who were also shackled and imprisoned
Marcus stood over Jenny with his eyes gleaming with predatory intent. The room was dimly lit with shadows dancing eerily on the walls as the muffled sounds of the club seeped in from outside. Marcus's mind was a haze of anticipation and lust, but as he unbuttoned the last button of Jenny's gown,
Jenny opened the door to find Marcus standing with a concerned look on his face. Excited, she welcomed him in. However, Marcus stepped inside with a grave look on his face. "Jenny, I came as soon as I heard you were out of the hospital. I need to talk to you about what happened." Jenny motioned
Jenny's fury was palpable, and Marcus continued to feed her anger with his lies. Just as their conversation reached a crescendo, Jenny's phone rang. She glanced at the screen and saw Doris's name. "It's Doris," Jenny said, looking at Marcus. "I'll put her on speaker." Marcus nodded, and Jenny answ
Kathryn's voice trailed off as the threat hung ominously in the air. Linda chimed in. "Yes, she needs to understand the consequences. If she stays with Adrian, she's sealing her fate and that of her parents." Kathryn nodded and continued, "I'll make sure Adrian's crime makes the headlines. Everyon
Adrian looked at him and nodded. "Yes, it is." Owen’s jaw dropped. He could hardly believe it! Adrian—the man he and the Greene family had belittled for years—owned this sprawling mansion. He felt his legs weaken, and he almost staggered back in disbelief. *Since when had Adrian become so wealth
Upon hearing Neil's words, the atmosphere thickened with shock. The Greene family members exchanged glances with their faces a mixture of disbelief and anger. They had never imagined that the lavish estate and properties they had been boasting about for years belonged to Adrian’s family! It was a r
The next day, the air was thick with shock and disbelief in Jolley City. News had erupted like a wildfire, and Frank's name was plastered all over the headlines. “Frank Greene Kills His Mother, Kathryn Greene, and Brother!” screamed the news anchor as the camera panned to footage of a chaotic scen
Adrian smiled warmly. “It means that you’re not only my wife but my partner. And if you’re ready, I’d love to have you by my side as we navigate this world together.” Doris looked at him, a renewed sense of pride and admiration filling her eyes. Just as they shared that moment, they heard a faint
Adrian took a deep breath, watching Doris’s questioning expression. She had been his wife through everything, and she deserved to know the truth. It was time. “Doris, I've waited until now to tell you who I really am because... well, I thought it wasn’t the right time. But you’ve proven, time and a
The following day marked Doris's birthday, and like previous years, she hadn’t planned any big celebration. During her mother's birthday, Adrian had taken them to a nice restaurant, and gifted Milda an expensive wristwatch, which he said a rich friend had given him. For Doris's birthday celebrat

Adrian raised an eyebrow and smirked, clearly amused. "Do you actually think you can threaten me?" Jenny didn’t flinch. Her gaze was steady as she replied, “This isn’t a threat, Adrian. It’s reality.” Adrian chuckled, folding his arms as he leaned back. He wondered how far she thought she could ta
After rescuing Doris and Milda, Adrian led them to a new mansion in Jolley City. This wasn’t just any mansion—it was grander than anything they could have imagined. The Greene family's men had burned down Adrian’s previous home, but that, in fact, was the smallest mansion he owned. The loss ba
