Chapter 26 Elara took some time to realize what the man said, and when she understood, her brows furrowed, and she was about to step forward when she froze. Why? Because she saw one man she didn’t expect to see here. Logan Frost. Her father p> As soon as her
Chapter 25 Andrew tried to look for Elara again near the Stewarts’ demo section, but couldn’t find her, no matter how hard he looked around. Even the bodyguard who always stayed with her was nowhere to be found, and his brows furrowed. Did she really leave just like that? That
Chapter 24 Elara closed her eyes for a brief moment before opening them and putting on the goggles, noise-blocking headphones, and gloves to protect her eyes and hands. She pulled the trigger, ensuring the gun’s rearward momentum was correct. The loud, blazing sound of the gun firing and its bullet
Chapter 23 Candice held Elara’s hand to pacify her. “Elara, I know you want to help me because you are my friend, and I don’t doubt your ability to know about these weapons, but there’s a difference between knowing about them and operating them. I don’t want you to risk
Chapter 22 The exhibition hall shimmered with light, weapons displayed on the counter, some shielded from human hands behind glass that reflected their shadows on the ground. Elara’s eyes sparkled with astonishment—a rare gleam in her gaze—as she looked at the different kinds of pistols and guns displayed over the
Chapter 21 Elara was greeted by the low hum of conversation and the click of silverware as she entered the restaurant to meet the person she had an appointment with. Her elegant and poised appearance turned heads. She was dressed modestly in a pair of grey pants and a black
Chapter 20 Elara kept looking at the man, waiting for him to speak as she put her dagger back on her waist strap, a habit she had developed since she turned eleven and was attacked by a molester near her school. She noticed multiple emotions pass through the man’s eyes
Chapter 19 Andrew narrowed his eyes, unsure how to deal with it. He thought about a thousand reasons to delay this call or stop it from happening altogether. Not only because he was blocked but also because if Elara said anything about divorce, his grandfather would entirely put it in
Chapter 18 Beatrice looked at the grandeur of the Lloyd mansion as soon as Andrew cut off the engine before the manor. Her glinting eyes looked at the familiar place where she had been quite a few times. No matter how many times she arrived here, it seemed to amaze
Chapter 17 Andrew sat on the couch lazily. Though he was with his friends, his mind was elsewhere, occupied by the woman who had never taken over his thoughts like that before. “Andrew, are you seriously going to let your wife get away with humiliating you in public?” Sean asked.
Chapter 16 Elara gazed at the passing streetlights, her mind going on and on over the way Daniel held her hand, pulled her close, and looked at her so intensely as if he knew something that she didn’t. What was this feeling in her heart? She knew he was a
Chapter 15 Elara’s eyes went wide, and she looked to her friends to help her, but Xylon, who already knew who this person was and his influence in the black market ruled by the dark world, didn’t dare to step forward recklessly without knowing what he wanted. “You forgot your
Chapter 14 Something was different. Was it in the way Elara looked down at him without a hint of emotion in her eyes, or in the way the eyes that used to hold so much adoration, care, and affection were empty? Andrew couldn’t pinpoint it. “Do you know them?” Alex
Chapter 13 “You guys, why have you brought me here?” Elara asked, her gaze flickering between the three men, Antonio, Xylon, and Alex. Xylon nodded at the bartender, who immediately pulled out a clean soda can with no alcohol from the cabinet and offered it to Elara. “Well, I heard
Chapter 12 Elara’s shoulders slumped immediately after she left that restaurant. The cool air hit her, offering no relief as she sank into the back seat of the car Antonio had brought, as instructed by George, her monotone gaze falling on the things around her. “Where are we headed, Miss
Chapter 11 “Oh my gosh, he is here,” Candice’s excited voice snapped Elara out of her thoughts, and she looked up with a neutral expression. When her cold eyes met her brother’s, his eyes immediately softened at the sight of her. She quirked her brow, and that little action was
Chapter 10 Elara was already in a bad mood because, once again, she was misunderstood by someone, and when Andrew’s number flashed on her screen, her mood turned even more sour. She picked up the call and put the phone to her ear. “Where are you? Didn’t you see my
Chapter 9 It was beautiful. The ambience, the vibe—everything screamed luxury, not the kind that would make you cringe, but the type that would make you appreciate the taste and style of the person. Elara briefly looked around as she walked further into the club, which was private to the
Chapter 8 George walked out of the resting area after learning that Elara intended to keep Antonio as her personal bodyguard and that she was finally understanding the importance of having security around her. When he looked at the commotion and saw no one was riding anymore, all looking towards
Chapter 7 The horse neighed loudly as the helpers holding its ropes tried to pull it towards where Elara stood, waiting for her horse. The loud neighing caught everyone’s attention, and they looked at the back of the lady standing at the corner of the arena. George Frost, who had
