Three years ago, Angela was saved by Lyle in an accident, and the two quickly developed a relationship and moved in together. However, Lyle's adopted sister, Fiona, frequently interferes in their lives, and Lyle always prioritizes Fiona's needs, causing Angela to feel neglected and suspect that they are more than just siblings. On her birthday, Angela plans to propose to Lyle, but Fiona interrupts again, causing Angela to lose control of her emotions and suffer an accidental miscarriage. Devastated, Angela decides to break up with him. After the breakup, Angela reunites with her old classmate, Michael, who takes great care of her. Just then, however, she discovers that Lyle knows about her miscarriage.

Chapter 1- Absent

Angela's POVThe moment Lyle’s phone rang, I knew he’d leave.Lying on the disheveled bed, still catching my breath, I watched him glance at the screen and tense up. It didn’t take long—he was already sitting on the edge of the bed, pulling his clothes back on, like nothing had just happened between us.“Who is it?” I ask, though the answer is obvious.“Fiona,” he says, voice clipped. “She’s threatening to kill herself again. I need to go.”Fiona. His adopted sister… but I have to wonder if maybe she’s something more.I sit up, pulling the sheet tighter around me, trying to keep my voice steady. “Lyle, it’s my birthday.” The words feel small, like they hold no weight with him.He doesn’t even turn around, just keeps dressing, his movements sharp and efficient, as if he’s already left in his mind. “I’ll make it up to you later.”I swallow hard. I don’t know why I expect him to stay. “Call her, please, and then let’s go back to bed.”He finally looks at me, but his eyes are cold, distan...

Chapter 2- Loss
Angela's POVThe doctor’s words keep replaying in my head, like a haunting echo. Miscarried. My heart clenches painfully every time I think about it, the weight of the loss crushing me. I didn’t even know I was pregnant. How could I have lost something I didn’t even know I had?Jodelle stays by my side, her presence the only comfort in the sterile hospital room. She’s quiet, but I can see the pain in her eyes, reflecting my own. I want to speak, to ask how this happened, why this happened, but the words refuse to come. I just lie there, staring at the ceiling, feeling the unbearable emptiness inside me.“I’m so sorry, Ange,” Jodelle says softly, breaking the silence. Her voice is thick with emotion. “I can’t believe Lyle wasn’t here. That scumbag.”Her words cut through my grief like a sharp knife. Lyle. He wasn’t here. He didn’t even know. The man who was supposed to care for me, who said he would always be there—he was with another woman instead.“He’s a cheating scum,” Jodelle con

Chapter 3- Leaving
Angela's POV“Think it over, Angela. Don’t do anything rash.” Lyle’s voice is calm, too calm, like he thinks I’m overreacting, throwing some childish tantrum. “Come back when you’re thinking clearly.”I’m done thinking. I feel like I’ve been seeing everything clearly for the first time. Without another word, I turn and leave, my footsteps echoing through the quiet house that’s no longer mine. I head straight to Jodelle’s, needing the support only she can give, and by the time I get there, I’m ready to move on.The next morning, I go to work early, my stomach already tight with anxiety. Years ago, I went to law school; graduated and everything, only to give it up for Lyle. Now I’m his damn secretary. I can’t keep holding on to everything that ties me to him. So, I walk straight to his office, my resignation letter in hand.Lyle glances up, his expression immediately annoyed. “Angela, stop with the tantrums. This is getting out of hand.”I keep my voice steady. “This isn’t a tantrum,

Chapter 4- Reflection
Angela's POVToday is my last day at work. Fiona is still at the hospital, and everything has become crystal clear in the following hours.After today, I’ll be free of Lyle, Fiona, and the endless mess they’ve left me tangled in. The office is quiet, my tasks completed, and a strange sense of peace settles over me as I tidy up my desk for the last time. Maybe Lyle and I won’t see each other again after this. Part of me hopes it’s true.I take one last look around the office, the place that had become my prison. Memories flash through my mind: late nights spent waiting for Lyle to finish his calls, the countless hours I sacrificed for a man who never truly valued me. Just as I’m ready to walk out, my bag slung over my shoulder, I feel a rough grip on my arm. I turn, only to see Lyle, his face set in determination. Before I can even react, he pulls me toward his car, his hand firm and unyielding as he drags me outside.My heart pounds, and I dig my heels into the ground, trying to r

Chapter 5- Accusation
Angela's POVThe sterile scent of antiseptic is the first thing I notice as I slowly blink awake. My head feels heavy, and my arms ache faintly, a dull reminder of what brought me here. The ceiling tiles blur in and out of focus as I piece together my surroundings.A hospital room.It comes back to me in fragments: Lyle bringing me here, the urgent conversation about a blood donation, the uncomfortable tug in my veins as I lay still, and finally, darkness.I sit up slowly, glancing around. The room is quiet, empty except for the machines humming softly beside me. There’s no sign of Lyle, which isn’t surprising. My stomach twists involuntarily at the thought, my heart sinking as I imagine where he might be.With Fiona, no doubt.A muffled voice outside the door breaks the silence. I tilt my head, the tone vaguely familiar, though I can’t quite place it. The voice grows clearer, punctuated by a polite chuckle, and I frown as the door creaks open.“Angela?”I blink in disbelief as the

Chapter 6- Bound
Angela's POVLyle strides across the room, his expression darkening as his eyes lock onto Michael’s hand on my back. Without hesitation, he slips his arm around my shoulder, his grip firm and unmistakably possessive.“Lyle Grayson,” he says coolly, extending his hand to Michael, though his other arm stays anchored around me.Michael retracts his hand from my back, straightens slightly, his polite smile unfaltering. “Michael Sterling,” he replies, shaking Lyle’s hand firmly.Their words are civil, but the air between them feels charged, a silent competition brewing.“I’ve heard about you,” Michael says, his tone light but deliberate. “CEO of Grayson Enterprises, right? Impressive work in the real estate sector.”Lyle’s smile doesn’t reach his eyes. “And you’re the Sinclair who’s made a name for himself in corporate law. Your reputation precedes you.”The words are polite, but the undertone isn’t lost on me. They’re sizing each other up, as if titles and accolades equate to moral superi

Chapter 7- Hidden Truth
Lyle's POVI still remember the day I met Angela. It’s burned into my memory like an imprint I can’t shake. She wasn’t like the women who usually surrounded me—calculating, polished, and self-serving. No, she was different. Or so I thought.That night, I had just finished an exhausting meeting, my mind still buzzing with business. The collaboration with Hartman had drained a lot of my energy, especially dealing with their boss's brother, Jay—an irresponsible, troublemaking playboy who had completely drained my patience.I rubbed my temples and sighed deeply. Maybe I should take a break, catch my breath, and unwind for once.Perhaps Jay wasn’t entirely useless; at least he knew all the places around here where one could have some fun. He had even recommended a bar to me once, a place not far from my university.After leaving the office, I made my way toward the bar. As I passed through a narrow alley near the university, I suddenly saw a woman backed into a corner by a group of thugs.

Chapter 8- Truth
Angela's POVLyle’s words echo in the cold, sterile room, sharp and biting. “You were pregnant, then you had an abortion. You killed my child, didn’t you? You killed my child to get rid of me, didn’t you? That was the plan all along—leave me, so you could be with another man.”The accusation slams into me, making it hard to breathe. A crushing weight presses against my chest, every word twisting deeper, each one heavier than the last. I step back, my hand flying to my chest as if I can physically hold my heart together. “How… how could you even say that?” My voice cracks, the disbelief cutting through my anger. “Do you really think I’d do something like that on purpose, just to hurt you?”Lyle’s jaw tightens, and he takes a step closer, his eyes narrowing. “Then explain it to me, Angela,” he snaps. “Explain why my child is gone. Make me understand.”I clench my fists, the grief boiling into rage. “You think I wanted this?” My voice rises, and I feel the tension in my muscles, the w

Chapter 9- Crossroads
Lyle's POVI sit in my car, flicking ash out the window, the faint glow of my cigarette illuminating the darkened interior. The engine’s off; I haven’t even bothered to start it. My mind keeps circling back to Angela’s face in the consulting room, the mix of anger and sadness in her eyes that I can’t shake. It’s been a while since she looked at me like that, with that quiet accusation, like I’m somehow the one who’s wronged her.I can’t shake the image of her eyes, the way they seemed to search for some answer, some proof that I’m more than the person I’ve become. What does she expect from me? An apology? A confession? I’m doing the best I can, juggling responsibilities she doesn’t even know the half of.I take another long drag, exhaling slowly, trying to let it go. Why is she like this? It used to be different—she used to be different. Three years ago, she was calm, capable, even gentle. There was none of this jealousy, none of the pointless arguments she seems so eager to start

Chapter 10-Control
Lyle's POVI rub my temples, feeling the exhaustion settling deep into my bones. I just don’t have it in me to console Fiona right now. Not after everything that happened with Angela. My patience is shot, my mind a tangled mess. Without much thought, I type out a reply: I’m dealing with something urgent. We’ll talk later.I toss my phone onto the passenger seat, let out a tired sigh, and start the car. The engine roars to life, but it doesn’t fill the emptiness pressing against my chest. Angela’s face still haunts me, that look of quiet devastation, the bitterness that came with it. Even now, I can’t shake it.Ever since Angela moved out, our house has become a place I’ve avoided at all costs. The idea of going back there, to the space that now feels cold and abandoned, makes me feel more alone than I care to admit. So, instead of driving home, I steer toward my parents’ house. It’s not a comforting choice, but it’s better than the alternative.The memory of coming home the night
