Betrayed on her wedding day, Khloe is framed, imprisoned, and broken by those she trusted most. Even after her release, her sister’s cruelty continues until a ruthless mobster, Henrik, steps in. Beneath his coldness lies fierce protection. As he helps her seek revenge, Khloe must decide: can love rise from so much pain?
Khloe paused briefly before accepting the pistol from him. “Why do you want me to learn shooting all of a sudden?” “Once people know you’re my fiancee, you’ll be in more danger. You’ll need to be able to protect yourself,” Henrik explained. “Plus, your role in the film requires shooting practice.” Khloe shot him a…
Henrik had kissed her with the intention of reprimanding her, but the sight of her left him with a sudden, overwhelming desire to claim her entirely. It was a feeling he had never experienced before. Henrik struggled to steady his breath, fighting to suppress the raw urge within him. His eyes fixed on Khloe as…
Uneasy and frustrated, he stared at Khloe with a serious look. “So, you plan to spend your life with that old man, huh? He’s got a family. And with your criminal history, you honestly think he’ll marry you? He’s just playing with you. Wake up, Khloe. If you keep lowering yourself like this, it won’t…
Khloe froze for a moment, then leaned in without thinking, her eyes fixed on her mother. “Mom, please continue. I’m listening.” Laura inhaled deeply, her gaze clouded with pain and a sense of helplessness. “Your grandfather always believed your father was unremarkable, incapable of upholding the Evans family’s legacy. When he recognized your extraordinary talent…
“Mom, you always know just what to do,” Sloane beamed, a glimmer of admiration in her voice. However, their conversation was interrupted by the sudden chime of the doorbell, and a moment later, the servant entered to announce that Eric was here. Straightening her posture, Sloane quickly masked any hint of tension, instructing the servant…
“Two hundred million.” The bid dropped like a bombshell, sending shockwaves through the room. A tense silence hung over the hall, every eye turning to Henrik’s private box in disbelief. Sloane’s face flushed crimson with rage as her glare burned a hole in the box. Eric’s expression hardened, a dark scowl forming as his brow…
Next to him, Sloane’s expression was just as serious, the confident smile she had earlier replaced by a look of quiet defeat. The auctioneer’s voice trembled with excitement as he announced, “One billion! The guest in Box 1 has placed a bid of one billion! Is there anyone brave enough to bid higher?” The entire…
Tess quickly snapped out of her daze and led the pair upstairs, filling them in on the details as they made their way up. “Elwood has invited other actresses to audition too. There are twenty more competing for the role.” “No problem. I know he must have doubts about me. Today, I’ll prove I’m the…
When the groupings were announced, Khloe found herself placed with Judith and Ensley-the two fiercest competitors. Both were popular, well-backed, and undeniably talented. As soon as they saw who their third group member was, Judith and Ensley ignored Khloe, their attention laser-focused on each other. To them, Khloe had already lost. “Please prepare for the…
“Her every move, her entire aura-it’s as if Roselyn just stepped out of the novel.” As Khloe executed the final step and stood tall with a self-assured smile, the room broke into thunderous applause. The other actresses sat frozen, rendered speechless. Even Ensley and Judith were too stunned to continue. Khloe’s eyes locked onto Elwood,…
