Chapter 10 - The Family Reunited
One year later, the Seattle penthouse was filled with the warm sound of children laughing.
Griffin and Sloan had been married in a beautiful, private ceremony on the coast.

Hazel and Iris were thriving in their new life, finally enjoying the safety and love of a real family.
Victor Sterling was currently serving a life sentence in a maximum-security federal prison with no chance of parole.
Griffin had stepped back from his grueling corporate hours to focus entirely on being a devoted father.
He taught the girls how to ride bikes, helped them with their homework, and never missed a single bedtime story.
The massive wealth he possessed finally felt meaningful because he had people to share it with.
They were currently preparing for a massive family vacation to a private island in the Caribbean.
Sloan walked into the grand living room, smiling as Griffin chased the giggling twins around the expensive furniture.
She wrapped her arms around her husband's waist, feeling a profound, unbreakable sense of peace.
The core conflicts of their past were entirely resolved, leaving nothing but a bright and happy future.
They had built a beautiful, impenetrable life together out of the ashes of their darkest night.
