"You have some nerve showing up here." Lila’s voice was razor-sharp, but her father only smirked, leaning back in his chair like he owned the world. "I did what I had to do, darling. It was just business." Business. That’s what he called selling her out to Maura Kane. That’s what he called helping them take Sophie away from her. Her fingers curled into fists. She shouldn’t have come here. If Elias found out— "Does he know you’re here?" Robert’s smile widened, voice dripping with amusement. "That husband of yours? The great Elias Kane? I imagine he wouldn’t be too pleased." Her stomach twisted. He couldn’t know. Elias could never know. But secrets had a way of slipping through the cracks. And in Elias’s world, betrayal was unforgivable. Would Lila finally outrun her past? Would Elias uncover the truth before it destroyed them both? Or would her father’s sins cost her everything? This is a gripping tale of power, deception, and love on the edge of destruction.
