Chapter 111

Damian’s heart skipped a beat, a surge of undisguised panic coloring his tone. “What’s wrong with her?”

“She… it looks like she’s been taken!”

The abruptly ended call from earlier flashed in Damian’s mind.

His thoughts erupted into chaos as a wave of dreadful premonition washed over him.

From her hospital bed, Olivia watched his frantic departure, a strange, chilling smile touching her lips.

Damian’s Rolls–Royce tore through the city streets as if trying to take flight.

He ran multiple red lights, slashing the journey down to a mere twenty minutes.

By 2 AM, he arrived at the Platinum Palace security room.

Weston and Lucas were already waiting, faces grim.

Lucas tried her phone repeatedly, but it

Aaron had died so young, never even marrying.

Damian vividly remembered the violent scene years ago when Aaron shielded him with his own body, taking a bullet meant

It was the desperate last act of a business rival Daniel had driven to ruin.

The man, facing bankruptcy, had arranged the kidnapping of ten–year–old Damian, even hiring professional hitmen.

As their vehicles gave chase, gunfire erupting around them, young Damian was paralyzed with terror.

The shot tore through Aaron’s chest.

His feelings for Aaron were profoundly complex–not father and son, yet something deeper.
