Chapter 6 - THE CRY THAT CHANGED EVERYTHINGHours later, a newborn's cry filled the delivery room.
Julian froze.
The sound was small.
Fragile.
Perfect.
The doctor placed the baby in Elena's arms.
A son.
Julian stared at him as though looking at the future itself.
Elena smiled through exhaustion.
“Meet your father.”
Julian touched the baby's tiny hand.
The infant wrapped his fingers around Julian's thumb.
Something inside the billionaire finally broke.
He cried.
Not from weakness.
From relief.
After eight months of fear, suspicion, anger, and loneliness, he finally had his family back.
But happiness lasted only minutes.
Captain Miller appeared at the hospital doorway.
“Julian.”
Julian looked up.
“We have a problem.”

“What?”
“Victor wasn't acting alone.”
