Chapter 10
On the seventh night of Alexander’s confinement at the Hayes residence, he had an endless dream.
In it, his scheme with Shakti succeeded–just as he pinned Sophia down, Emily rushed in to stop him.
The foolish woman’s eyes brimmed with love and concern for him, completely unaware this was all premeditated.
What a pity, he never got to sleep with the beauty Sophia.
He’d deliberately studied the Hayes mansion layout beforehand, choosing a room where no one would normally come.
Unexpectedly, Sophia took the initiative to find him.
She even took off her coat right in front of him, clearly trying to seduce him.
A beauty throwing herself at him was rare–sleeping with Benjamin’s wife proved Alexander had skills.
Too bad Emily barged in and ruined everything.
So, he took all his anger out on Emily. She cried herself hoarse- hilarious.
In his dreams, Emily remained that hopelessly foolish woman, so stupidly in love with him.
After that public humiliation, she still agreed to marry him.

And when he merely gave her the cold shoulder a few times, that old fool William proposed handing over all the Reynolds family shares.
Without lifting a finger, he secured every asset of the Reynolds family.

He and Shakti didn’t need any more schemes to get rid of Emily.
But… Emily, who cried so easily and feared pain so much,
Didn’t shed a single tear before dying.
She kept staring wide–eyed at him, as if burning his image into her soul- even as a ghost she wouldn’t let him go.
Emily died with those eyes still open. Only when Shakti nudged him did Alexander realize she was gone.
And he died with eyes wide open.
He succeeded. Not just Emily, but William and that old woman–all dead.
The Reynolds family was extinct. All their wealth was his now.
He should have reached the peak of his life, destined for nothing but triumph ahead.
Yet why, on his wedding day with Shakti, would clear skies suddenly turn into thunderous storms?

Why would that little iron tower Shakti had begged to build become the lethal weapon crushing them both?
Alexander jolted awake in terror, finding himself still in the Hayes family basement.
Before him, Benjamin advanced step by step, fury burning in his eyes…
