It was time to rethink everything. Even with full control of Langford Group, he\u2019d still have to tear it down and build it back up from the inside.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In a narrow alley not far from Langford Group\u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n
The guy who had faked the hit on Curtis slipped into the shadows and glanced around. When he saw Kenneth, he gave a smug grin. \u201cNot bad, huh? I really sold it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Kenneth handed him the envelope of cash. \u201cTake the money. Go dark.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The guy took it fast and rubbed his wrist. \u201cThat woman hits like a truck. Her kick nearly snapped my arm.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Kenneth looked tired. \u201cSave the whining. If Rex\u2019s men find you, you\u2019re dead. Get moving.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The man nodded, clutched the envelope, and vanished down the alley.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Kenneth turned back and walked to Curtis. \u201cMr. Lincoln, Rex really did hire someone to take you out. We caught it in time. We took over the job.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
That setup alone was enough to make Raymond cave.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Once Matthew had full control, he\u2019d finally be able to protect Adriana.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That was always Curtis\u2018 goal.\u00a0<\/p>\n
And now, everything was unfolding exactly as he\u2019d planned.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cStick to the original plan,\u201d Curtis said, his voice low.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Kenneth hesitated before he spoke again. \u201cYou should stay close to your wife for a while. She\u2019s pregnant. She can\u2019t afford this kind of stress.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis gave a small nod. His eyes carried a quiet ache, something heavy that words couldn\u2019t touch.\u00a0<\/p>\n
From the day he was born, he never knew what real family felt like. No warmth. No love. Just cold distance. He had fought alone his entire life. And now, when he finally had something good\u2013a home, a wife he loved, a child on the way\u2013he couldn\u2019t even give them peace.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople always talk about how lucky the Lincolns are. Richest family in Harborton. Top of the food chain.\u201d On the ride back, Curtis stared out the window and let out a bitter laugh.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If he had a choice, he\u2019d trade it all. He\u2019d rather grow up in a regular home. No money, no pressure. Just real happiness.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But being born a Lincoln meant one thing\u2013he\u2019d been used from day one.\u00a0<\/p>\n
And honestly, if he really let himself think about it, he figured the game had started long before he was even born.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Lincolns. The Bartons. The Harrisons. The Gills. Every one of them had bled for this power play. No one ever walked away clean.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Now that Harold was gone, the old plans were crawling out from the past like poison. Whoever was behind it wanted Curtis dead. They wanted Denton turned into a puppet. They wanted every last dime the Lincolns owned.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Bartons were hanging by a thread. Jeremy was still trying to hold it together. Adriana was the rightful heir, but she couldn\u2019t go public. Wouldn\u2019t dare. That left everything crashing down on Justin\u2019s back.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis had kept Adriana too safe. Even after Jeremy passed and her name was revealed, Justin still didn\u2019t think she could carry the weight.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Harrisons started breaking the moment their daughter married into the Lincolns. When Gary stepped in, he kept things steady, but just barely. Their business survived, but the fire was gone. Like they\u2019d run out of future.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Gills looked fine from the outside. Untouched. But no one was safe. Not really.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Who was the one pulling the strings?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Who had that kind of reach? Enough to twist four powerful families around their finger and keep the entire corporate world dancing?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis\u2019s house.\u00a0<\/p>\n
By the time he walked through the door, the smell of dinner filled the air.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana seemed gentle on the surface, but inside she was tough. Stubborn. She only felt safe when Curtis was near. That\u2019s why she always tried so hard to build something real with him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her whole world had been shaped by the lack of love. So when she finally cared about someone, she gave them everything. But love like that came with fear. The more she cared, the\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cBaby!\u201d As soon as she saw him, Adriana dropped the utensils and ran over to hug him tight.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis hugged her back, but his eyes held something uneasy. Maybe Justin had been right. Maybe protecting her so much had only slowed her down.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If she was going to take back the Bartons, then she had to step up. She had to learn how to fight.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAdriana\u2026\u201d Curtis opened his mouth, then stopped.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana looked up at him. Her chest felt tight.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She\u2019d been sensing something for days. But she was too scared to face it. Denial had become her only shield.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIs something going on?\u201d Her voice came out small, but she forced the words out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou know someone\u2019s been gunning for the Lincolns,\u201d Curtis said. \u201cBack when Harold lost it and handed the Lincoln Group shares to Denton, he basically handed him a loaded gun with his name on it.\u201d He took her hand and walked her to the dining table.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana paused. Lily popped into her mind. Someone had targeted Denton.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m no different,\u201d Curtis said. \u201cEverything Harold built fell into my lap. But I\u2019ve got no power behind it. That kind of money, sitting in my hands? It\u2019s like holding a live grenade. They don\u2019t want me to build something of my own. They just want to wait me out. And if I don\u2019t use that money \u2026 if something happens to me\u2026 that fortune becomes a death sentence for you and the baby.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
