CHAPTER 87
~Zara's POV~
I was furious as I processed the betrayal and deceit. And all for what? I swallowed hard, the name slipping through clenched teeth. "Ivan."
My brother's eyes narrowed, showing frustration and helplessness. "I thought so too. He's the only one who'd go this far."
My heart thudded wildly. Every word my brother said fuelled my inner fire.

I stood up suddenly, feeling the heaviness of the situation overwhelming me, making it hard to breathe. "This isn't about the company, is it? Ivan's after me, Elias. He's cornering Dad because he knows I'll be forced to act if he threatens you all."
