But he was unaware that the man he had defeated wasn’t the real Phantom. That hot and exhausting afternoon, Victor stood by the large window in his office, the city’s skyline shimmering in the twilight. The room was unusually quiet, a stark contrast to the chaos that had consumed their lives in recent weeks. Emma sat across from him, flipping through a stack of documents with furrowed brows. She was focused, yet a lingering tension hung in the air between them, unspoken but undeniable. A knock on the door broke the silence, making them both look up.

The Wrath of Grandpa BenGrandpa Ben's clock chimed as the minutes passed. He sat in his chair, fingers drumming on the armrest. The room was tense with anticipation, waiting for Emma’s return. But as the hours went by and she didn’t come, a storm of anger began to build inside him.“Where is she?” Grandpa Ben growled, his voice rumbling like distant thunder. “She should’ve been back by now.”Maria, standing by the window with her arms crossed, sneered. “I told you, Grandpa, she’s not coming. That girl thinks she can defy us like she’s untouchable. She’s too blinded by Victor to see the hell she’s about to bring down on herself.”Grandpa Ben’s eyes narrowed, a dangerous gleam in them as he considered Maria’s words. “She’ll learn soon enough. No one crosses me and gets away with it.” I have not forgotten how Emma and Victor humiliated me and the entire household.The door creaked open, and the leader of Grandpa Ben’s men entered, his face ashen.

The Betrayal UncoveredThe drive back from the hospital was tense, the silence between them heavy. Victor's grip on the steering wheel was tight, his eyes locked on the road, while Emma sat beside him, her mind racing with everything that had just happened. When they finally arrived at the house, the tension was nearly unbearable.Victor parked the car and let out a slow breath. He turned to Emma, his expression hard to read. “We need to act quickly,” he said, his voice low and controlled. “There’s something happening at the rival's base. If the Phantom is involved, we can’t let this opportunity slip.”Emma nodded, still shaken by the events at the hospital but trying to focus. “What’s the plan?”Victor’s gaze met hers, dark and serious. “We go in. Just the two of us.

Throughout the evening, Grandfather didn’t stop his subtle attacks, using every opportunity to chip away at Victor and Emma’s credibility. His voice was always low, just loud enough for those around him to hear his cruel whispers, but never loud enough to cause a scene. His words were like venom, dripping with malice.“Victor used to be such a promising man,” Grandpa Ben said, his voice barely above a whisper, but loud enough for a nearby group to hear. “But ever since *she* came into the picture…” He let his words trail off, the implication clear.Emma caught the murmurs, her heart sinking with each passing comment. She forced a smile, pretending not to hear, but her grip on Victor’s arm tightened. Victor noticed immediately, leaning down to murmur in her ear, “Ignore them, Emma. You’re with me.”But it was easier said than done. The elite guests circled them like vultures, their eyes full of judgment.“Do you think she belongs here?” someone whispered from behind them.“She’s out of
