Chapter 80 " Sadie , it's me , your uncle . You've already suffered too much . I swear , I'll make them pay for what they did to you . " } His voice was deep and steady , filled with both rage and warmth . Behind him , his bodyguards moved with military precision . In a matter of seconds , they had Denton's men pinned to the ground . " My uncle gently scooped me into his arms like I was made of glass . For the first time in what felt like forever , I felt safe , and that long - lost sense of warmth and protection hit me all at once . As such , I couldn't hold back the tears anymore , and everything blurred . I looked past his shoulder and saw Denton . His once cold and unreadable face was now frozen in shock and disbelief . " He stepped forward instinctively , but one of my uncle's guards raised a hand and blocked him without a word . My uncle also turned slightly and gave Denton a sharp look , and that single glance made him freeze in place . For the first time in his life , Denton stood helpless . The man who always controlled everything was now being watched , dismissed , and ignored . And the woman he once held power over was being carried away right in front of him like something precious , something he could no longer touch . " " Sadie ! " he shouted , voice trembling with rage . " Don't think just because you've got someone backing you now , you can run forever ! " Even so , my uncle didn't even look back and just ordered his men , " Take her away . " " I was then placed into a bulletproof luxury car . Through the tinted windows , I saw Denton losing his mind , trying to chase after us , but the convoy was already gone . He disappeared from view as we sped down the road . A leaned my head against the cool glass , exhausted beyond words . There was no victory in me , no satisfaction . Just emptiness . In seven years of our marriage , two lives were already lost , and I was also left broken . I had given everything to that man , and all I got in return was the complete destruction of my world . Third Person's POV The next day , Denton smashed every piece of glass in his office . " She ran ? She actually ran ?! " } His voice roared through the building like a wounded beast . " " Find out who that man was ! Who the hell are these Middletons and what's their background ? I don't believe she can just disappear ! " \ But after a while , his assistant stepped forward , nervous and pale . " Sir , we couldn't find anything . " " " What do you mean , nothing ? " he shouted and kicked the coffee table . Glass shattered across the floor . " " We traced the man who took her , " the assistant stammered , " He's the CEO of the Northern Star Trading Group , one of the largest commercial empires in Northern Europe , and he's her uncle . " Denton froze . " " Northern Star Trading Group … just how powerful are they ? " " The assistant swallowed hard before explaining , " They operate globally . Military tech , finance , shipping , intelligence … you name it , they're in it . Your family's entire fortune is just a drop in their ocean in comparison . Their assets are also incredibly well - protected . We don't even know where their main estate is located . " { Denton's face went pale with fury . Everything he prided himself on was nothing in their eyes . He wasn't even in the same league . When he got home , Melanie was lounging on the sofa with a cup of coffee in hand . She looked relaxed , even pleased . As soon as he walked in , she put down her cup and wrapped herself around his arm , her voice soft and sweet . " Denton , let it go . That crazy woman left with another man . Clearly , she never loved you . " @ She pouted delicately , as if her words were full of concern . " She's always been selfish . Look at her , risking her life to save that bastard child . Did she even stop to think about how you felt ? " Denton's eyes narrowed . Her words stabbed at the sorest part of his heart.N " She didn't love me ? " & " Of course not . If she did , would she have just left like that without a single word ? And think about it , her grandmother is clearly someone powerful . Why didn't she ever tell you ? She was hiding it from you on purpose , just to humiliate you . " Every word Melanie spoke was like a knife , not only against Sadie , but against Denton's pride as well . The more he thought about it , the more it stung . Every moment from the past twisted into something dark . " Yeah .. why didn't she tell me ? " He muttered to himself . & D P
