“You came back?”
The maid nearly dropped the breakfast tray.
At 5:07 a.m., Dominic Mercer—the man half of New England feared—was standing inside his own mansion with one finger pressed to his lips.
He was supposed to be in London until Monday.
His fiancée, Brooke, had no idea he was home.
And Dominic wanted to keep it that way.
“My nephew called me crying last night,” he whispered. “He said Brooke told him his mother wouldn’t be allowed to live here after the wedding.”
Then came another question.
Why did Brooke say Grandma Catherine’s cottage belonged to her now?
That cottage didn’t belong to Brooke.
It had been left in trust for Dominic’s widowed sister, Natalie, and her nine-year-old son.
Before Dominic could say more, high heels clicked down the hallway.
Brooke.
Dominic slipped behind an old service door.
Seconds later, Brooke entered carrying a leather folder.
She ordered the maid to wake Natalie.
Then, when Natalie appeared, Brooke pushed the papers toward her.
“Sign.”
Natalie read the first page and went pale.
“This says Noah and I give up every claim to Mom’s cottage.”
Brooke smiled.
“After Saturday, I’ll be running this household.”
“I’m not signing.”
Brooke stepped closer.
“Then by breakfast tomorrow, you and your son can be off this property.”
Behind the hidden door, Dominic heard every word.
His sister.
His dead mother’s trust.
His nine-year-old nephew.
And the woman he was supposed to marry in two days.
But Brooke still didn’t know he was listening.
She walked upstairs, pulled out her phone, and sent two words to her brother:
HE SUSPECTS.
The reply came less than a minute later.

And when Dominic eventually saw it…
he realized the cottage was only the beginning.
