I made the most reckless decision to leave him– I faked my death to leave the man who refused to leave me even after shattering my heart into tiny unfixable pieces. ….. Nicholas Hart: She was the best thing that ever happened to me and I realized when it was too late. In the end, she became all of my 'I wish' and 'what ifs'. ….

Will Anne Rose give another chance to her husband? Or will she move on with her new life? Are they still bound by the thread of fate? Or would they cause immeasurable pain to each other's heart again?
View MoreFrom that moment, things didn't improve but instead worsened. Nicholas and Nathaniel had a big rift between them. Sabrina stopped talking to Nathaniel because he would not answer her, and she got tired of playing the good guy. In the last year of high highschool, so many things were changing. Nicholas was spending more and more time with his father, learning the ropes of business. Ryan had a girlfriend, and she didn't disturb him much as for Nathaniel, even though he used to sit in the same place where he sat all three years, next to her, he wouldn't bother looking at her face. She was getting frustrated with things. She had a boyfriend who was never around, and her friends were involved in their own life. She fell all alone. However, she thought that things would get better once the school passed. She and Nicholas would apply somewhere together and would live a happy life together, and it was just the bad phase of their life going on. Once they finish school, Nathaniel won't be t
Sabrina was attending the class, and suddenly, a boy came and took a seat next to him. She turned to her left and saw Nathaniel, a smile blooming on her lips. What a beautiful surprise it was! She whispered his name, but he didn't reply throughout class. Thinking that the teacher was strict, he didn't want to put anyone in trouble. So, she waited for the class to be over before talking to him. When the teacher left, she asked him, “Nate! How are you?”Nathaniel gave her a look that she did not know he was capable of showing. She gulped. “Are you okay?”He answered, “Do I look dead?”His voice was coarse, and the look that he was giving her was saying that he did not like to be around her. She shook her head. She did not know why he was talking like that to her. Nathanial told her, “Focus on your work. Please don't disturb me. If you get bored, find your boyfriend. Dont disturb me.”She wanted to say more, but he cut her off, “But—”“But what?”He looked very impatient. Sabrina's e
Nicholas and Sabrina had become a couple as they were in the first year of their high school. Today, Sabrina had accompanied Nicholas to his home for dinner, and everyone liked his pretty girlfriend. She had a crush on him, and he could see it from the very beginning. Slowly, they started hanging out together, and one day he realised that he liked her too. Then, he asked her out, and ever since then, they were inseparable. Nathaniel was calmly eating while Sabrina asked, “Nate, will you attend the party?”Although she had gotten very close to Nicholas, she didn't know his family much. Now that she was his girlfriend, she wanted to be close to them, too. Emery chirped with a broad smile, “My brother has a track record of not attending any parties.” Sabrina looked at Nathanael with puppy eyes, “Please, come! It's my birthday! I want you to be there for my sixteenth birthday. Do you not know how special a sixteenth birthday is for a girl? Please! Please!”She was beautiful, and when s
Sabrina said to him, “And you are giving me a headache.”“What?” he asked as if he didn't understand what she was saying. She innocently shook her head. How could she offend him? She was at his house. Even if he was weird, she couldn't say it on his face, right? “How will you call him?” He asked her. He was pretty sure that Nicholas wouldn't have brought her to this side. If she came here, she might have wandered here on her own. Nicholas knew that this place was absolutely off-limits to everyone that was not approved by him. Sabrina answered, “He asked me to holler if I wanted to find him.”Only Nicholas could treat a guest like this at their house. Not just guests but anyone! The man was always absorbed in himself. The young boy muttered, “Asshole!”He added after a while, “He is probably out putting himself in trouble.” He knew Nicholas too well to know that Then, they heard glass breaking, both of them ran to that direction to find Nicholas geting into a brawl. When Nic
“Where is Nate?” Ellora asked. Nicolas answered, “I do not know.”Ellora began muttering something about the boy named Nate. She looked at Sabrina and said with a smile, “Go take Sabrina out. Show her around.”When Ellora was talking about Nate, she had a troubled look on her face as she knew that the boy was upto no good but when she turned to look at Sabrina, she appeared fine. Sabrina wondered if she had the magic to make people forget their worries or Mrs Hart was just proficient at it. In her case, the latter appeared to be the case. Nicholas just agreed and began showing her around while they entered another part of the house. Suddenly, someone came and Nicholas began talking to the man. He told her, “Why don't you roman around? I will be here. If you need me, just holler loudly.”Truth be told, she was not interested in touring his house. She just wanted to be with him. The feeling of Nicholas Hart showing his home to her was overwhelming and a girl who had been crushing afte
Flashback to pastVance said to his daughters before entering the threshold of the Hart family, “Girls, I want you to be on your best behavior.”He was establishing his image as a politician, and he wanted his family man image to be spot on. In this event, people from diverse fields were bound to come. He could not take any chances. He had not achieved the heights he did after becoming the president of the country. Right now, he was just a struggling politician. Beatrice pouted. ‘But daddy…”Vance softened his voice and said to his youngest daughter, “Bea, there will be a girl your age at the party. I will introduce you to her. Her name is Emery. You can be friends with her.”Usually, the kids stay home while he attends such parties with his wife, but for some reason, she was out of state, and he decided to bring his daughters as his companions. “Okay, Daddy!” Bea was young and sweet. Thus, she didn't make things difficult for her father. He turned to his oldest daughter and said,
"Sir, the reports are here," Johnson said as he reached Nicholas’ office. His face was trying to uphold a mask of professionalism despite the urgency in his voice."What does it say?" Nicholas asked, barely able to conceal his anxiety. This moment consumed his mind, making it impossible to focus on anything else. The weight of the unknown had kept him restless, and the anticipation of the truth had been agonising him since yesterday. He had yearned to wait in the lab to know the results immediately, but other duties had forced him not to do so. "Please open it," Johnson urged, handing over the envelope with a gravity that matched the situation. He didn’t know whose DNA Nicholas had instructed him to match, but it was clear that the result was of utmost importance to his boss. Seeing his boss in urgency made him stressed too. Nicholas tore open the envelope with a sense of foreboding looming around him. As his eyes scanned the report's contents, his expression shifted dramatically. H
Leon’s words had shattered Roseanne. As the kids left, leaving her the only one left in the room, tears began streaming down her cheeks. It was fueled by a deep frustration she could barely articulate. In this moment, she was utterly lost and was unsure of what she wanted or needed. There has been many moments in her life when she didn't know what she wanted but this particular moment made her helpless to the point that she never encountered before. “I don’t want to go back either,” she whispered, the words meant to be a scream but coming out as a barely audible plea. “What do I do?”Her eyes darted around the room, desperately searching for a trace of him. Even a shadow that might suggest he was still there. She wondered if his presence could have changed this, if he were here, would she still be crying alone?He had never been able to bear the sight of her tears. Each time a tear slipped down her cheek, he would gently kiss it away. That’s how he had been caring for her, with a ten
"Why is this pretty lady with my Nicholas?" Coco inquired, pointing at the photo."That's his wife," Roseanne replied softly."Oh?" Coco's face fell, confusion clouding her features.“Nothing, mommy,”Coco said. “What's her name?”“Her name is Anne Rose Swift,” Roseanne answered. It felt weird for her to talk about herself to her daughter like she was a stranger. Anne Rose was not just anyone but her. A part of her that she killed a long time ago. “Like you mommy?” Coco asked after thinking. “She has a similar name like you.”“Yes, we do have a similar name, ”Roseanne whispered.Coco patted her mother's shoulder and said, “You are also pretty mommy.”Rosanne laughed. “What do you mean by ‘also’?Did her daughter think that she was feeling bad? It was not like that. It was just that she couldn't believe that an innocent child like Coco would find her old self pretty. She hated Anne Rose. Anne Rose was not beautiful and confident. She could be easily intimidated by people. She had a bad
