My Possessive Husband

Chapter 10: The Hunt Intensifies

Chapter 10: The Hunt Intensifies

Leo sat in his sleek office, the soft glow of his computer screen illuminating his focused expression. He had been working tirelessly, calling in favors and utilizing every resource at his disposal to track down Ren across Europe. Each city, each lead, seemed to hit a dead end, leaving him frustrated but determined. Fil desperation weighed heavily on him-he knew how much his friend cared, but Ren had clearly gone to great lengths to disappear.

Leo POV

She's not just hiding-she's starting a new life, he thought, sifting through emails from his network. But Fil won't stop until he finds her.

Leo picked up his phone and dialed another contact, a private investigator based in Germany. "Still no trace of her," the investigator informed him, and Leon sighed, leaning back in his chair.

Meanwhile, Fil was in the throes of a rage that only grew with every passing hour without a trace of Ren. He sat in his office at Business Enterprises, staring at the wall, unable to focus on anything else. The usual calm and control he prided himself on had long evaporated. His obsession with finding Ren consumed his every thought.

Fil POV

How could she just vanish like this? Fil mind raced as he clenched his fists. She's mine. She belongs with me.

The frustration burned inside him, a fire fueled by the silence. He had called Leo almost every hour, pushing for updates, but so far, nothing. Every failed lead only stoked the madness growing within him. He slammed his fist on the desk, sending papers scattering.

"I'll find you, Ren" he muttered under his breath. "And when I do, you won't escape again. I won't let you go. Ever."

Across the English Channel, Ren was blissfully unaware of Fil mounting obsession. In her small apartment in London, she hummed softly to herself as she unpacked a box filled with decorations. Her new home was starting to feel like a real sanctuary, a place where she could be free from the pressures of her old life.

She placed a beautiful potted plant on her windowsill, smiling at how it added life to the room. Next, she hung a string of twinkling fairy lights across her wall, the warm glow reflecting the happiness she felt inside.

Ren POV

This is perfect, she thought, stepping back to admire her work. A new start, in a new city. No one controlling me, no one holding me back.

She had never felt so independent, so in control of her life. The decision to escape to England had been exactly what she needed. Here, she could focus on herself, her goals, and the freedom she craved. Her mind wandered to the future-the places she wanted to visit, the people she would meet, the job she would find to support herself.

As she arranged a few more decorations on her bookshelf, her phone buzzed with a message from Friend.

Friend's Message:
How's the decorating going? Need any help?

Ren smiled as she typed her reply.

Ren Message:
Going great! Almost done. Thanks again for helping me settle in. You've been a lifesaver.

With her apartment taking shape, Ren felt more at home than ever. She hadn't realized how much she'd needed this fresh start. No more possessive billionaire looming over her, no more pressure to be someone she wasn't. Here, in this cozy space, she was free to be herself.

Back in Paris, Fil phone buzzed. It was Leo.

"No updates yet, but we're expanding the search across more cities," Leo reported, trying to sound hopeful. "We'll find her."

Fil jaw tightened. "Keep looking, Leo. I don't care what it takes. I won't rest until she's back. And once I have her... she'll never leave my side again."

Leo sighed, understanding the depth of Fil emotions. But he couldn't help but wonder, Is this what Ren truly wants?

As the days passed, the tension between freedom and possession grew ever stronger, with Fil search becoming more relentless and Ren life blossoming in her new world. Two lives, moving in opposite directions-until fate would inevitably force them to collide once again.
