Lily Doo nodded, her expression shifting from playful to concerned. “Yes, I am. What about you?” she asked, studying Sylvia closely. Sylvia Luke shrugged, pouring a drink into the empty glass on the table. “I am okay,” she replied, attempting to mask the turmoil beneath her surface. Lily smiled knowingly. “You don’t look like you are alright,” she said, her tone laced with familiarity. “Is it written all over my face?” Sylvia countered, trying to keep her voice light, but the weight of her emotions was hard to hide. “If you want to deceive everyone, you can’t deceive me,” Lily said, her voice firm yet gentle. “I can tell when you’re not really okay. What’s wrong? Are we still best friends? You’ve started keeping things away from me.” Her expression turned sad, and Sylvia felt a pang of guilt. Sylvia sighed, feeling the walls close in on her. “It’s Stephan Damon!” she blurted out. “And I’m sure you’re keeping things from him too. What are you hiding from me?” Lily chuckled, a hin

Sylvia Luke nodded thoughtfully, absorbing Lily’s words. It felt like a moment of clarity had settled over her, one that brought a sense of understanding she had been searching for. “Okay, I understand now,” she said, finishing the last drop of her drink. It was refreshing, like a cool breeze on a sweltering day, and she felt a little lighter. Lily, however, had different plans. She poured a generous measure of alcohol into her glass and downed it in one swift motion. The burn felt familiar, a reminder that sometimes the easiest way to dull the ache of longing was to simply forget. She forced a smile, one tinged with bitterness, knowing Sylvia Luke couldn’t see the true emotion behind it. Deep down, she longed for someone like Stephan Damon—someone who would love her unconditionally. “You are a lucky girl,” she muttered under her breath, her voice barely audible over the hum of the bar. It was a statement directed not at Sylvia but at her own unfulfilled desires. “Did you say

“Do you vow to stand by Sylvia to support and protect her and to be your partner in good health and bad?” The pastor’s voice echoed in the silent hall.There was a pause in the hall. Sylvia's eyes shone with happiness as she gazed at Nicole, her expectant look palpable. But Nicole's expression turned cold, his eyes narrowing as he clenched his hand and drummed his fingers with an anxious intensity.Sylvia's heart raced with anticipation, every second feeling like an eternity.Just as he was about to respond, his phone rang. He hesitated for a few seconds, then pulled it out of his pocket. “Hello?”The hall fell silent; all eyes were fixed on Nicole.He spoke up again after a few seconds. “I’m on my way now.” He spoke the words quickly, his hand dipping back into his pocket with a soft jingle of keys. As Nicole turned to leave, his eyes flashed , and Sylvia felt a shiver run down her spine. She hoped it is not her dreams coming to pass.Sylvia's hand shot out, grasping his arm. “Whe

Sylvia stepped into the familiar lobby of her father’s house. She entered and saw her stepmother and stepsister in the living room. Sylvia looked around, wondering where her father was.Victoria and Emily gazed up from the couch, their eyebrows furrowed in exaggerated worry. ''Oh, Sylvia, dear, what happened?' Victoria asked, her voice sugary sweet, her eyes gleaming with a calculating intensity. Emily nodded in agreement, her eyes sparkling with malice.Sylvia already knew that they didn’t like her and were just pretending whenever her father was around, and they acted and treated her very well whenever her father was around too. “Oh, my bad. I forgot that you were left by your supposed husband on the altar inside the hall.” Victoria's voice was a masterclass in insincere empathy, her words dripping with honeyed concern as she cooed, 'Sylvia, darling, you must be heartbroken!' But Sylvia heard the faintest hint of a smirk beneath the surface, a telltale sign that Victoria was secre

Sylvia gasped for breath as she hurried towards the forest, her mind racing with uncertainty about Nicole's cryptic message and the possibility of him postponing the wedding.. The thought sent a thrill of hope through her—she'd be overjoyed if the wedding was truly rescheduled.She got to the oak tree and sat down beneath it as she looked around. Nicole hadn't arrived yet, and Sylvia was not in a hurry and was ready to wait for him.Sylvia had sneaked out of the house without her father's knowledge, forgetting to grab warm clothes. Now, she shivered in the chill, her thin garments offering little protection against the biting cold. She wrapped her hands around herself as she shivered. The cold made her eyes red, and she thought about the picture Tendy sent her, of Nicole in the hospital.She wondered if Tendy had sent the message using Nicole's phone.As the hours ticked by, Sylvia's anxiety grew. She checked her phone for what felt like the hundredth time, her eyes scanning the scr

Sylvia raised an eyebrow when she saw the familiar features. “It is you,” She said softly.The man raised an eyebrow when he heard this. “Yes you were probably fascinated by my looks that you fainted out of shock. Now I have no choice but to carry you back to my place” He said with a deep voice.Sylvia's eyes narrowed, her eyebrows furrowed, and she gazed at him with an intensity that made her eyes flash. “What do you mean?” She asked glaring at him. ‘Why is he so flirty?’ She pitied his girlfriend, if he had one, and wondered why he was so flirtatious.“The food is ready, master,” the maid said.The man looked at Sylvia with a smile on his face. “Let’s go and eat instead of you looking at me” He said with a winkSylvia shook her head and followed him into the dining room.Sylvia entered the dining room, her dress rustling softly on the polished wood floor. The aroma of roasted vegetables and fresh bread wafted from the table, tantalizing her taste buds. Her stomach growled in antici

Sylvia turned around, her eyes narrowing as she took in Emily's curious expression. Sylvia calmed down when she saw that it was Emily, she rolled her eyes when she heard this “Who is who? She asked. “The owner of that car? Did you find another replacement so quickly?” She asked, raising her eyebrow enviously, she wondered how Sylvia was always able to get so many rich men. “I don’t know him,” Sylvia said calmly as she walked away. Emily's long strides devoured the distance between them, her deliberate movements a stark contrast to Sylvia'- calm demeanor, as she blocked Sylvia path. ''You got out of his car, didn't you?' Emily accused, her voice trembling with a mix of jealousy and envy. “Get out of the way” Sylvia said growling, she was already tired and did not have time for Emily dramas. Emily frowned unwillingly too. “Who is he?” She was adamant. Sylvia already had enough of her dramas and questions so she pushed her away gently, Emily suddenly fell down on the floor

A week after Sylvia has regained her confidence back but the words of the man that Sylvia had met and had saved her continued to ring in her ears, as she made her way back home after she ran out of his house. When he asked her to marry him out of the blue. ‘Is marriage a joke to him?’ She wondered as she walked out of the mall. Sylvia hailed a taxi so she could go home. She sat down and turned her head, she looked out of the window. She noticed that the car was not going towards her direction she frowned. “This is not my house address” Sylvia said thinking maybe the driver made a mistake but the car started speeding. Sylvia suddenly turned her attention to the driver she noticed that his face was not showing properly. Her heart started beating fast because she knew that he was definitely not a taxi driver. “Who are you? What do you want?” She asked in a low and steady tone, she tried to hide her nervousness. The driver did not reply. The car suddenly stopped as the driver

Sylvia Luke closed her room door with a soft thud and sank onto the bed, her mind racing. Just then, her phone rang, slicing through her thoughts. Startled, she fished it out of her bag and glanced at the screen. It was Lily, her closest friend. She answered the call, placing the phone to her ear. “Hello?” she said, trying to keep her voice steady. “What’s up?” Lily’s voice came through, bright and cheerful. “I’m good. What about you?” Sylvia replied, attempting to mirror her friend’s upbeat tone. “Okay. Are you around?” Lily asked, a hint of excitement in her voice. “Yes, I am,” Sylvia confirmed, feeling a spark of enthusiasm flicker within her. “Let’s meet at Shell Bar then,” Lily suggested. “Okay, I’ll meet you there in a jiffy,” Sylvia said, glad for the distraction. “Sure, waiting for you,” Lily chirped before hanging up. Sylvia placed her phone down and took a deep breath. She needed this—some time with her friend to clear her head. She got up from the bed and walked o

Stephan Damon’s expression darkened at the mention of her name. “She’s with the police. Why do you ask?” His tone was guarded; he didn’t want to believe that Sylvia Luke might feel sympathy for the woman who had wronged her. Sylvia Luke shrugged, her heart heavy with conflicting emotions. “I just want to see her, to understand. I feel like she might have been deceived or something,” she said, her voice quieter now. The idea of confronting the woman was daunting, yet she felt a strange pull to learn more, to empathize with someone who seemed to be acting out of pain. Stephan Damon regarded her thoughtfully, his gaze searching her face. He could see the turmoil within her, the struggle between her desire for justice and her instinct to show compassion. “You don’t have to carry her burden too,” he finally said, his voice low but firm. “Focus on your healing first.” Stephan Damon nodded, the weight of the situation hanging between them. “She will tell the police all that.

Minutes turned into hours, and Stephan Damon remained by her side, his resolve hardening. He would do everything in his power to ensure that she felt safe and loved. The darkness that had encroached on their lives would be pushed away, and he would fight for their future together, no matter what it took. He leaned closer, brushing a strand of hair from her forehead. “Please, come back to me,” he murmured, his voice laced with emotion. “I need you.” Stephan Damon walked out of the ward, needing a moment to collect himself and avoid disturbing Sylvia Luke’s fragile peace. He stepped into the dimly lit corridor and pulled out his phone, his fingers trembling slightly as he dialed a number. “Hello?” came a cautious voice on the other end. “Boss, the woman is still adamant that Madam seduced her husband. She claims she received some images on her phone,” the bodyguard reported, his voice shaky. Stephan Damon clenched his fist tightly, his knuckles turning white. Anger surged th

Stephan Damon dropped to his knees beside Sylvia Luke, his heart aching at the sight of her. She lay still, her chest barely rising and falling, and for a moment He walked closer to her and carried her in his arms not caring about how dirty and haggard she looked. The smell of urine assaulted his nose, but he didn't care about that, he was a clean freak but he didn't even bother about getting dirty. “Sylvia?” he whispered, his voice barely above a breath. Sylvia Luke heard the familiar tone, like a lifeline pulling her back from the abyss. She struggled to open her heavy eyelids, each flutter feeling like a monumental effort. Finally, she managed to focus on the face that meant everything to her. “Hubby, you’re finally here,” she said in a low, raspy tone, forcing a smile that felt more like a grimace. The effort it took to appear cheerful only deepened the ache in Stephan Damon’s heart. His chest tightened painfully as he took in her disheveled appearance. She looked so fra

Just when she thought it couldn’t get worse, the phone in her pocket began to ring, cutting through the chaos like a beacon. The woman, still holding her down, felt the vibrations and yanked the phone out. She glanced at the screen, her expression shifting to one of disdain as she read the name: “Baby.” “You’re really shameless. Is it one of the men you seduced calling you? Let’s see who else you’ve seduced after my husband,” the woman sneered, holding the phone like a trophy, her expression a mix of triumph and derision. Sylvia Luke’s mind felt blank, a swirling fog taking over as she processed everything. The ringing felt distant, and she could barely comprehend the woman’s words. The humiliation, the anger, the pain—it all melded into a haze. Her consciousness flickered in and out, making it hard to focus on anything but the overwhelming embarrassment. “Answer it! Let’s see who you really are!” the woman demanded, pressing the phone to Sylvia Luke’s ear. Through the haze, S

“Hello?” a man’s voice cut into the conversation. Sylvia Luke’s brow knitted in confusion. “Who are you?” she asked, sensing the shift in tone. “I’m the officer handling Miss Emily Anthony’s case. Are you her workplace friend?” he asked, his voice professional yet firm. “Yes,” she replied, anxiety bubbling in her chest. “Okay, your friend borrowed a sum of one million dollars from a lady over the past two months and has refused to pay. Can you come to our station?” the officer explained. Sylvia Luke’s mind raced. A million dollars? What had Emily Anthony gotten herself into? “Where is your office located?” she asked, struggling to keep her voice steady. “Downhills Local Area,” the officer replied. Sylvia Luke muttered an acknowledgment before hanging up. She took a deep breath, steeling herself for whatever awaited her at the station. She grabbed her jacket and hurried out of the house, her pulse quickening with every step. She didn’t see David, her personal driver, in

She scrolled down to the comment section, her heart sinking further as she read the barrage of supportive messages directed at Ruth Slice. The comments flowed in like a tidal wave: “Ruth Slice’s hubby: I know it was that bitch who seduced Mr. Tony. You’re really nice and kind hearted; you even forgive her and call her sister-in-law! That bitch seduces married men!” “Bitchy: Tsk tsk, you are really nice. You gave up easily! I love your courage—thumbs up! You are my role model from now on.” “Ruth Slice’s daddy: she even seduced other people’s men. Watch out for this whore!” “Anonymous: You are so kindhearted; you should not be like that black-hearted bitch. Keep being kind hearted!” Sylvia Luke laughed, amusement mixed with anger as she read the comments. Kind Hearted? she thought bitterly. Although she had no concrete evidence linking Ruth Slice to her earlier troubles, a nagging feeling told her that Ruth Slice had orchestrated much of the chaos in her life. Her instincts h
