The Scarlet Paladin - Chapter 102: Healing

Sophisticated and abstinent domineering CEO + world-class beauty + pure love + flash marriage + secret crush + marriage first, love later + sweet pamperingIn the third year of being with Isaac Sutton, Clara Sterling finally realized he had been pretending to be poor to manipulate her feelings.She thought he was such a poor student that he couldn't afford to eat.Yet he spent 300,000 casually on a bag for another woman.She heard Isaac Sutton say, “She's from a single-parent family and has been missing a father's love since childhood. I'm just doing it to amuse her. Could I really marry her home?”When her mother was diagnosed with stomach cancer, Clara Sterling asked Isaac Sutton for money, but he was still crying poor.She turned around and married the aloof and abstinent Crown Prince.Later, Isaac Sutton drank so much he got gastric bleeding, and called begging to reunite.Silas Sheffield’s voice was cold, “She's asleep. Whatever you have to say, say it to me.”Clara Sterling initially thought she and Silas Sheffield were just in a mutually beneficial agreement.Later, she discovered that Silas Sheffield had secretly loved her for many years.

"Your bed is cold," spoke a voice in the room that had her eyes go wide in fear. Nervously, she turned around, gulping softly to see a shadow on her bed as if someone laid down there. The man who had been lying down sat up emerging out from the shadows where he had been waiting for her.

She thought heartbreak was the hardest battle she'd ever fight. Ending a five-year relationship in 2024 nearly broke her, but she rose anyway. By 2028, she’s everything she once dreamed of becoming. A bestselling author, an admired high school teacher, and a successful businesswoman. But behind her perfect image lies a dangerous secret. She’s also one of the most feared underground hackers in the cyber realm.Then one night in City X changes everything. A book signing. Too many drinks. A stranger with a voice like sin and eyes full of danger. The next morning, no memories, a blurred signature, a hotel room, and a man’s touch she can’t forget. Back in City C, she tells herself to move on. Until someone knocks on her door. And the man from her forgotten night says the words that turn her world upside down.“I’m your husband.”He’s younger, commanding, and far from ordinary. A soldier from a secret military unit hidden in the shadows, where forbidden experiments and enhanced beings redefine humanity itself. Now bound by a contract marriage, they’re forced into a world of covert missions, coded lies, and a war between love and survival.She’s a hacker who steals secrets.He’s a soldier sworn to protect them.And when their worlds collide, love becomes both a weapon and a weakness, the only thing powerful enough to save them... or destroy everything they stand for.

In the end, war couldn’t be extinguished. But, there was a transformation. Even in the heart of a worthless accomplice in murder who was indifferently continuing his task, there was a transformation. The massive weapon “Object”.

This was a weapon that changed the whole definition of war. An exchange student named Quenser, who was dispatched to the battlefield, met at the base a girl with a strange aura. The girl, dubbed “Elite”, is the pilot of “Object”. The near future. This diminutive boy had come to take on the role of standing up against the strongest weapon “Object” for the sake of the girl. This was the motive for their first meeting.
