Chapter: CHAPTER 107 - THE ENDIt was the middle of the night—too late, too dark—and she was behind the wheel of her car, the road stretching out before her like a never-ending ribbon. The hum of the engine was a steady presence, the rhythmic sound of tires against asphalt almost soothing. But something felt off, a sense of unease hanging in the air, heavy and pressing. She couldn’t place it, but the world around her seemed to blur at the edges, as though the clarity of reality was slipping away.Then, in the blink of an eye, it happened. A flash of headlights in her rearview mirror. The screeching of tires. A jolt—one sharp, gut-wrenching moment when everything spun out of control. The world tilted as her car veered off course, her heart pounding in her chest, her breath shallow. She could hear the crash, the shattering glass, the deafening thud of metal crumpling against metal.The sound of her own gasping breath echoed in her ears as she reached for the seatbelt, the world still spinning, the pressure on her che

Chapter: CHAPTER 106Scarlett frowned. It was an acutely familiar voice but she couldn't just pin point who it was."GO TO HELL! DIE!"It was on the second shout that Scarlett recognised who it was. It was Karla shouting and just when Scarlett was about to turn around to look back, Xander abruptly turned her towards his side, still hugging her when she abruptly looked up at him and saw his face contort into one of pain."Xander!" Her heart lurched inside her chest as she moved her head to the side and saw Karla with a huge knife in her hand, the sharp end buried in Xander's back. A gasp left her mouth as her eyes reared up.Supporting Xander, she quickly walked and gripped Karla's wrist, "Let. Go."There was so much anger in her voice, a kind of hatred erupted in her heart that made her want to kill this woman right at the moment. She hurt her Xander.Even Karla was shocked for a moment at the intense emotion in Scarlett's eyes. She staggered back a step and in that moment, Cole and others had alrea

Chapter: CHAPTER 105"You should definitely buy this one. I think it looks the best on you." Maria smiled at her before gesturing to the sale's assistant to pack it up for her.Scarlett smiled hesitatingly. She didn't know how to act around Maria right now. But she still, nonetheless, nodded at her words."I'll.... go look there." Scarlett pointed towards the left aisle where a lot of winter jackets were displayed.Maria nodded with a doting smile. "Sure. I'll look for some bags too."Scarlett nodded with a robotic smile and went away.As soon as she turned around, her smile faded. Maria called her today morning to go shopping with her. Plus, as November had already started, she suggested to somewhat decorate the house for the winters. It was a reasonable suggestion but Scarlett still hesitated. It was only when Maria said that Xander would like it and that she had already told Xander about it that any hesitation about going out in Scarlett's mind went away.But something still felt off.***It was an h

Chapter: CHAPTER 104It was the next day and Scarlett was back home in her room, collecting her books and suddenly, footsteps could be heard behind her.She turned her head to look behind and was startled to see Xander standing so close to her.She jumped up on his surprise as she saw his figure being much closer to hers right now.When did he come so close to me this fast? She patted her chest in a manner to calm her beating heart down. "What-Why are you so close?"Xander tilted his head. "Should I not be?""Huh?" She looked at his face dumbly at his question. "No, you should be." As if realising what she just blurted out, "No, wait-I meant you should not be...I mean-"Xander bit his tongue inside so as not to laugh out at her cute appearance. "Haa" he swept his hand through this hair and let out a short breath."You..." Scarlett covered her face. "Why am I always saying stupid things in front of you?" She mumbled through her hands covering her face and decided to not look at him for a moment. He

Chapter: CHAPTER 103Xander was silent for a moment.Explain.He fell silent on the other end. He knew he should not have disappeared but after that night, he just couldn't face her.He lied to her, the past still materrs because...she almost died because of him.There, he said it. He had been feeling so guilty which is why he had left that dark world after her accident and maybe gpd gave him another chance as she lost her memory of that period so he decided to never let her know of that and also not get close to her again but he failed to do that. When he met her gain, all he wanted was to be with her."Xander?" After not hearing a response for a long time, Scarlett called out once again."Yeah?""What yeah?!"A small, almost negligible smile formed on Xander's lips as he could almost imagine her saying, "What yeah?!" with an angry pout in her face. She was the only one who could calm his raging heart. why did you leave without telling me?""Did I need to tell you?""Of course. I'm your wife. Shouldn't

Chapter: CHAPTER 102The car suddenly came to a halt.He frowned a bit and looked at her, "What are you talking about, Triantafyllo?""I'm taking about you knowing me even before our marriage." There she said it finally.He eyes widened at her words. A stunned expression came upon his face as if he had never expected to hear this from her.Still, he managed to reply, "What....What do you mean?"She stared back at him, looking for any sign of lie in his eyes but there was none.Did I guess wrong? She wondered.But.....As she wondering about this, Xander had already started driving the car again and the time, she could feel that the speed of the car was significantly faster than usualHer words had affected him.She knew it,"Xander-" Before she could speak to him about it again, he was already out of the car, signaling for he kr to get down either.Soon, she cane down too and walked towards him."Xander, listen to me!"She called him behind his back when he suddenly turned around, startling her."What sho
