Chapter 12

Chase had been making Camila’s life a living hell these days.

One day, while the guards were distracted, Camila snuck out and threw herself into his arms the second she

saw him. She grabbed his hand and pressed it against her stomach, crying and laughing at the same time.

“Chase, look–he kicked! Our baby, he really–he’s moving…”

She was desperately hoping he’d show some mercy–for the sake of their child, for the past they once

shared.

But Chase turned his head in disgust and spat out one cold word.

“Get out.”

Camila snapped.

“You don’t even want your own child?! What is it about Nora that makes you treat her like this?! What does

she have that I don’t?!”

The next second, Chase’s hand was locked tight around her throat.

“She’s a thousand times better than you will ever be, Camila. And you’ll never understand why.”

“This baby is not staying.”

He sneered.

“You think someone like you deserve to carry my child?”

Camila went cold all over, like she’d fallen into an icy lake.

But Chase’s face didn’t soften one bit. He turned to the bodyguards and ordered flatly,

“Take her. I don’t care how–just get rid of it.”

Camila kicked and screamed, but was still dragged away.

Chase watched it all, not a flicker of emotion in his eyes–only the cold satisfaction of revenge.

To him, it was all Camila’s fault.

She had driven Nora away.

She had made Nora angry.

So the more he punished Camila, the more he believed it would show Nora how serious he was.

And eventually, she’d come back to him.

–

That night, Chase stayed up late reading the proposal.

The bidding was scheduled for tomorrow.

And rumor had it Dominic would be there.

But no matter how he tried to focus on the bid, his mind kept drifting–to her. All he could think about was

whether he might see Nora there.

This project had been in the works since last year.

Back then, it was Nora who’d gathered all the background materials for him.

The memory made his chest ache.

God, he wished it was all just a bad dream.

Maybe he’d wake up;

And she’d be curled beside him, like none of it ever happened.

The next day.

No matter how Chase adjusted his bid, Dominic’s price always beat him by ten dollars.

Every single time.

Not more, not less.

Exactly ten.

Like he was doing it on purpose.

After a few rounds, Chase couldn’t take it anymore.

“Dominic Faulkner, have you lost your damn mind?! This project has nothing to do with Faulkner Group! Even if it’s business rivalry, this is just plain malicious!”

Across the room, Dominic sat with his legs crossed, calm as ever.

“You’re right–this project has no overlap with Faulkner’s existing portfolio. But my fiancée happens to like this spot. So I’m buying it–for her.”

Fiancée?

Chase stiffened.

He immediately remembered what his assistant had reported and clenched his fists.

“When did you get a fiancée? Since when?!”

Dominic didn’t even blink.

“Didn’t realize I had to report my private life to you.‘

There was a flicker of something in his smile–mocking, maybe.

And it put Chase on edge.

He suddenly had a sinking feeling in his chest.

Who was this mysterious fiancée of Dominic’s?

Could it really be… Nora?

Halfway through the bidding, during the break, Chase found Dominic in the stairwell–wanting to talk terms, maybe get him to back off.

But just as he walked up, he heard a sweet, familiar voice:

“Wait–seriously? You bought this entire amusement park project just so I could get the best view of the

fireworks?”

“You’re too good to me, Dominic! I love you~!”

And then he heard it–her voice. Soft. Bright. Happy. His feet stopped cold. It hit him like lightning.
