Chapter 32: Revelations and Consequences: The Impact of the News, 32.
To meet Adam's professional demands, Taylor established a rigorous routine, waking up every day at 5 a.m. Even on weekends, she maintained this disciplined habit.
After five years, her body and physical senses had adjusted to the heavy work routine.
Noticing her contact device on the table next to her bed, Taylor realized that it was vibrating insistently with the locked screen. She got up and picked up the phone, which was turned on but not functioning properly.
On the screen, there were over 200 missed calls and thousands of messages. A chill ran down Taylor's spine. Something serious had happened.
Therefore, she restarted her phone and immediately turned on her personal computer.
Upon waking up, Taylor felt anguish in her chest, sensing that something grave had occurred. She wondered what it could be: something related to the Kadman conglomerate, or something serious involving Adam?
As soon as her phone rebooted, a call appeared on the screen, coming from her brother Gunnar.
Taylor: "What happened, Gunnar?" she asked directly and concerned.
Gunnar: "Have you heard the news? It's everywhere. You and Adam, it's really the end, you don't stand a chance. How did this happen?"
Taylor squeezed the device tightly between her fingers and questioned: "What happened to Adam"?
Gunnar: "There are multiple reports. They are on thousands of pages online worldwide, spreading faster than lightning".
Taylor: Which website, which news source?
Taylor typed Adam's name and clicked on the first search result. The phone slipped from her hand. There was a highlighted image with the word "Love."

Gunnar shouted into the phone, "Taylor, are you there? Please answer, What happened?"
Taylor picked up the phone, hearing her brother shouting her name from the other side of the line.
"I don't exactly know what happened; something went wrong. But... I will fix it.
This omega is just an opportunist, a social climber who is using his relationship with Adam to achieve a higher social position.
He's just another one among many that I have encountered, and I will handle him like I handled the others. Don't worry, Gunnar; he's not the first, but he'll be the last.
Gunnar: Taylor, you need to marry this multibillionaire. You need to maintain your position and your achievements at all costs."
"I will take care of it; don't worry, Gunnar."
Taylor ended the call with a heavy heart and a sense of burden in her chest. She had hoped and counted on Adam's confirmation of his interest in the mysterious omega, but still...
She understood the dynamics between Adam and the Omega. It was an essential beginning - the two were complementary in every way, completing each other.
At first, it was understandable that Adam wanted to be with that Omega. The only immediate solution to end this situation would be to "eliminate" him. But she could wait, without resorting to drastic measures for now. Adam would eventually dismiss him, just like, he did with all the others. She repeated to herself,
Taylor carried a ticking time bomb over her head. Her thoughts were a metamorphosis based on her desperation, but it was the logical answer she found, her only way out.
However, these thoughts didn't bring happiness. Taylor felt trapped in a cruel twist of fate.
What to do now?
Her limiting belief made her stumble. She was the guardian of her vanity, but she also relied on the favor of Elizabeth Kadman. She had adapted to understand the preferences and demands of Adam's mother.
Elizabeth Kadman, a prominent figure in the global high society, was noble by birth and heir to a powerful family. She used her influence in society to promote and participate in personal causes, as well as engage in philanthropic organizations.
Her social circles consisted of individuals belonging to financially privileged families, as well as members of the nobility and global aristocracy.
After releasing her somber feelings, Taylor turned off her phone and computer and headed to the shower.
Reading the various articles about her son in the morning, Malcolm Kadman was surprised by the mention of a "mysterious Omega." Curious, he clicked on the first link that appeared and was directed to a gossip blog. There, in vibrant colors, was a photo of Adam and his Omega passionately kissing on the sidewalk in front of a nightclub.
The accompanying article was brief and to the point:
"Adam Kadman, the most sought-after bachelor in the world, was seen yesterday in a public display of affection. A source from the Grande Hotel Kadman reported that Adam and his mysterious omega, spent the night together. We hear... hearts breaking all over the country this morning."
Malcolm sighed as he read the news. Breakfast at the Kadman mansion was traditional and involved certain obligatory rules, such as affirming their noble status at each meal. Breakfast was being served in the mansion, and the room was filled with absolute silence.
Elizabeth Kadman, sensing that something didn't seem right, spoke gently to the butler, "Tell the driver to have the car ready. I will finish my coffee, touch up my lipstick, and leave."
Malcolm looked at Elizabeth and said, "This is not a good time."
Elizabeth questioned, "Why? What happened?"
Malcolm handed her a virtual screen with the article he had just read and replied, "You need to calm down. There are many news and reports about Adam this morning."
Elizabeth slightly opened her eyes as she read the news. Yes, it was the Omega who had deceived her son, or at least that's what it seemed. She had her doubts.
Remaining silent for a minute, holding the screen, Elizabeth looked at Malcolm, perplexed, and asked, "And aren't you outraged?"
Malcolm responded, "Why should I be? For the first time, they are writing the truth. Two months ago, you were complaining because he was a workaholic. Tonight, he announces to the whole world that he's committed, that he's in a loving relationship, and you're still unhappy."
Elizabeth was surprised by Malcolm's response and asked, "Do you think that's it? He's an Alpha Prime, a noble and well-bred man. How can he present his relationship to the world before a formal introduction to his family?"
Her son and his unknown daughter-in-law looked stunning in the photos, like true movie stars in a romantic film. Elizabeth couldn't help but feel a touch of vanity as she reviewed the news and the pictures during her relaxation in the bathtub. "Callum and Clarice, they never had such a romantic and beautiful photo published before!"
She smiled with satisfaction, enjoying the moment with a touch of humor. "This photo is simply magnificent! They are radiant, like superstars at their peak. I think we have a new potential celebrity couple!"
With still sleepy eyes, Damian slowly woke up and recognized the familiar scent of Adam's skin, while the city noises were muffled by the soundproof windows and the height of the building.
Adam murmured in his deep, magnetic voice, "Hello, my sweetness," pulling Damian closer to him. Damian felt Adam's strong arms encircling his waist, and that night he had no nightmares. It seemed like Adam's pheromones acted as an effective sedative.
Adam: "It's good to wake up with you. I still desire you, and I think we should get married!"
Damian let out a spontaneous laugh and replied, "What a ridiculous idea!"
Adam: "What do you mean? Do you find it funny?"
At that moment, Adam started nibbling on Damian's ear...
Adam: "The idea is excellent! You have rights as an Omega, there are laws and protections for Omegas."
Damian shrugged and responded, "I don't care, we can eat. I'm hungry."
Adam propped himself up on his elbows and made a confused expression. His Omega was very different, insubordinate. He didn't behave like a normal, gentle, and delicate Omega.
However, Damian was an orphan. His family had always helped philanthropic institutions with donations and project funding, but he himself had never read scientific studies about the life of an orphan.
Adam took Damian's hand and said, "You're so small, I'm afraid of breaking you."
Damian smiled and replied, "Don't worry, Adam."
