The drive back to the hotel was exceptionally quiet. The heavy security guards escorted Julian up the VIP elevator, leaving him at the double doors of his room. The moment he stepped inside the spacious luxury suite, the absolute silence felt like a heavy blanket pressing down on his chest.

Julian didn't turn on the lights. He liked the dim afternoon shadows that filled the room. He walked over to the grand floor to ceiling glass window, staring out at the sprawling city. The thousands of car

    Valeria stared up at him, her chest heaving as the weight of five years of secrets pressed heavily against her throat. The silence inside the luxurious penthouse was thick, broken only by the sound of her shaky breathing. "When I went back to your house that last time," Valeria finally began, her voice dropping to a soft, trembling whisper as she finally spilled the tea on everything that had happened, "I just wanted to know if you were okay. But your mum… she sat me down in the living room. She looked at me with this stern expression, and that’s what made it hurt so much. She told me that you were completely done with our relationship. She said you had moved on to a completely different world in England, that the pressure of your new career was immense, and that you explicitly told her you didn't want anything to do with me anymore. She said you didn't know how to tell me yourself, so she was doing it herself." Valeria paused, wiping a fresh tear from her cheek, her tone remarkab

    The silence that followed inside the luxurious penthouse was so heavy it felt suffocating. Julian stood completely paralyzed, his heart hammering against his ribs as he stared down at the girl he had spent five years hating. The very next words that came out from Valeria's mouth made Julian's broad shoulders drop in absolute surprise and shock. "I never received anything, Julian," Valeria said, her voice shaking but full of a fierce, desperate certainty. She raised her hand to her chest, her fingers clutching the fabric of her hoodie. "I swear to you, on everything I hold holy, I never received a single letter from you, from your mother, or from any person. Not one." Julian felt the ground beneath his feet tilt. His mind was spinning, trying to process the sheer weight of what she was saying. "That can't be," he whispered, though his voice lacked conviction now. "She never gave them to me!" Valeria cried out, the dam finally breaking as tears began to stream down her pale cheeks.

    Julian walked over to her, his footsteps echoing softly on the pristine marble floor. He stopped just a few inches away, his shadow completely enveloping her. The time for hiding was over. The penthouse was dead quiet, the world was locked outside, and the truth was finally ready to be told. He reached out, gently capturing her hands again. "Valeria," Julian urged, his voice heavy with a desperate need for answers. "Continue with what you were saying earlier on in the locker room. My mother... what did she do? What did she say to you?" Valeria looked up at him, her heart twisting painfully. After pondering for a while in silence, staring at his intense grey eyes, she slowly shook her head and disagreed. She pulled her hands back slightly. "No. You go first, Julian. Explain to me why you abandoned me in the first place. Tell me why you left without a word five years ago, before we talk about your mother." Julian was incredibly quick to cut her off, his jaw clenching as a wave of

  • MY HOCKEY HEARTHROB    CHAPTER 95: ALL OVER AGAIN

    The hum of the engine was the only sound inside the luxurious sports car as it sliced through the city streets. The scene had shifted completely away from the chaotic stadium to Julian and Valeria. Outside, the night was alive with the roaring celebrations of fans honking their horns, but inside the vehicle, it felt like an entirely different world.Julian was driving with intense concentration, his sharp grey eyes focused on the road ahead. Yet, even with the high speed of the car, his right hand was completely occupied, he was holding on tightly to Valeria's hand with his free hand, his grip firm and possessive. Indeed, they had a whole lot to talk about, and he couldn't wait another second to get to the bottom of it. The truth about their five missing years was unraveling, and his hunger for answers was the exact reason why he had escaped the arena even before taking the grand prize, leaving his teammates and the trophyAs he drove through the bright streetlights, Julian slowly adj

    The announcement hung in the air, echoing over the stadium loudspeakers. The tournament director stood with the massive, glittering gold trophy lifted high, his eyes scanning the ice expectantly. But the captain's spot remained completely empty. A wave of confusion washed over the entire arena. The thunderous cheers of the fans gradually slowed down, turning into a low, puzzled murmur. The Hawks players looked at each other, their bright smiles fading into blank stares. Michael and the rest of the boys turned around completely, looking toward the dugout, the benches, and the entrance of the dark tunnel. "Where is Julian?" Michael whispered, blinking in confusion. Everyone in the stadium began to scan the area frantically, looking around for Vane. The thousands of spectators in the stands leaned over the railings, and the media cameras began to pan wildly across the arena floor, trying to locate the star player. No one had any idea how he could simply vanish into thin air right a

    The chaos on the ice was absolute. The stadium security guards were straining with all their might, their boots slipping on the slick surface as they held Julian back. Julian didn't struggle against their grip. He stood tall, his expression completely calm but incredibly cold, staring down at the giant man who was still on his knees on the bloody ice. Seeing his player on the ground, the Canadian head coach immediately sprinted onto the ice. Fearing that his own involvement in the plot might be uncovered, he pointed a shaking finger at the officials and roared, "This is an absolute outrage! Julian Vane just brutally assaulted my player for no reason! I demand that you suspend him immediately! Disqualify the Hawks! He should be thrown out of professional hockey!" The stadium security chief looked toward Julian, waiting for an explanation. But Julian didn't shout, nor did he explain. Instead, he pulled off his heavy hockey gloves and tossed them onto the ice. He looked directly at the
