Lahat ng Kabanata ng Stolen by My Sister... CLAIMED by the BILLIONAIRE : Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

The Lord WatchesAVA'S POV The car ride back to the mansion was silent.Ava sat in the back seat of Victor’s car, staring out the window as the city lights blurred past.Her mind replayed the scene over and over.Vanessa.The black car.The mysterious man.And the way his eyes had turned exactly toward where she had been hiding.Her stomach tightened again.If Victor hadn’t pulled her away when he did…She didn’t want to think about what might have happened.Victor glanced at her through the rearview mirror.“You’re thinking too loudly.”Ava scoffed slightly.“That’s not even a real thing.”Victor smirked faintly.“It is when someone looks like they’re planning their next reckless move.”Ava crossed her arms.“I wasn’t reckless.”Victor raised an eyebrow.“You followed a suspected informant into a private meeting with an unknown man.”Ava turned to look out the window again.“When you say it like that…”Victor chuckled softly.“That's exactly how it happened.”Ava sighed.“Did Domini

The MasqueradeAVA'S POV The mansion was unusually quiet the next morning.Not peaceful.Controlled.Ava could feel it in the air.More guards had been stationed around the estate overnight. Black vehicles lined the driveway, and men in dark suits moved through the halls with quiet precision.Dominic had turned the mansion into a fortress.And somehow, that made Ava even more uneasy.She stood in front of the large mirror in her room, staring at the dress laid carefully across the bed.Black silk.Elegant.Beautiful.And completely inappropriate for something that felt like walking into a trap.Behind her, the door opened softly.Ava didn’t turn around.“I’m guessing that’s for tonight.”Dominic’s voice came from behind her.“Yes.”Ava folded her arms.“You’re actually serious about this.”Dominic stepped further into the room.“The invitation wasn’t optional.”Ava finally turned to face him.“He threatened to take me if we didn’t come.”Dominic’s expression didn’t change.“He was te

CollateralAVA'S POV The word echoed in Ava’s mind like a gunshot.Collateral.For a moment, the entire ballroom disappeared.The music.The guests.The glittering lights.All of it faded behind the single sentence that had just shattered her world.Her father signed the contract willingly.Ava stared at the man in front of her.“You’re lying.”Her voice was quiet.But it shook slightly.The Lord tilted his head.“Am I?”Dominic stepped forward immediately, placing himself between them.“That’s enough.”The tension in his voice was unmistakable.Dangerous.But the Lord didn’t move.Instead, he studied Ava carefully.“You really didn’t know,” he said almost thoughtfully.Victor muttered behind them,“Dominic…”But Dominic didn’t take his eyes off the Lord.“You’re done talking.”The Lord chuckled softly.“You can’t bury the truth forever.”Dominic’s voice dropped lower.“Watch me.”Ava’s heart pounded in her chest.Her thoughts were spinning wildly.Her parents had been bankrupt.Yes

Blood Isn’t Always LoyaltyAVA'S POV For a long moment, no one in the room spoke.The contract still lay open on the desk.Vanessa’s signature stared back at them like a wound that refused to close.Ava felt like the air had been sucked out of the room.“My sister…”Her voice barely came out.Dominic didn’t look at her.His eyes were still scanning the document like he expected it to suddenly change.Victor stepped closer.“Let me see that.”Dominic handed him the contract.Victor studied it carefully.His expression slowly darkened.“Well,” he muttered.“That’s not good.”Ava laughed weakly.“Not good?”Her voice cracked.“My sister helped sell me.”Victor didn’t respond.Because there was nothing to say.Ava slowly backed away from the desk.Her thoughts were spinning too fast.Vanessa.Her big sister.The one who used to braid her hair when they were younger.The one who used to sneak her snacks when their parents weren’t looking.The one who had hugged her the day of the wedding

The Trap ClosesAVA'S POV The highway roared beneath the tires.Dominic kept the accelerator down.The van ahead swerved violently across the road, trying to shake them, but it was obvious now—They weren’t trying very hard to escape.Victor noticed it too.“They’re not panicking.”Dominic’s eyes narrowed.“No.”Another sharp turn from the van.Victor leaned halfway out of the window again, gripping the door frame.“Most kidnappers would be terrified right now.”Dominic said nothing.But the thought had already formed in his mind.Too easy.The van slowed suddenly.Victor frowned.“That’s new.”Dominic’s instincts screamed.“Something’s wrong.”Before Victor could respond-Two black SUVs burst onto the highway from a side road.They slammed into a position beside Dominic’s car.Victor blinked.“Oh.”Another SUV appeared behind them.“…that’s bad.”The trap snapped shut instantly.Dominic’s car was now boxed in.Front.Sides.Rear.Victor whistled quietly.“Well played.”Dominic’s exp
