DESPERATE LOVE

Hazel closed her suitcase firmly and pulled the zipper at both ends without hesitation. This decision was unanimous. She will leave here forever and lead a new— more pleasant life. There's no more Rick in her life. From now on they will each live their lives as two different individuals.Hazel took one more look at her room before pulling her suitcase off the bed. For the last time she would look at the interior of the room she had occupied for the past two years. Now the room looked like the first time she had occupied it, so empty, so quiet. It had only one large bed in the middle of the room, and two large windows with white curtains facing the highway that ran below Rick's apartment. Then at the far right there is a wooden door that directly connects it to the bathroom. Now this room doesn't belong to her anymore. A woman would soon replace her to become the owner of this room. Just like Rick's heart. The man was no longer hers."Hazel...""I'm here, R

Many greeted Hazel as she strode down aisle after aisle of the bustling prosecutor's office. The news of the murder of the billionaire family practically made all the prosecutors busy gathering evidence. This morning Hazel also had the chance to see the news about the mayor shouting to the media that he wanted the killer of the billionaire family to be caught immediately. The public is now anxiously awaiting the judgment for the defendant which will be carried out tomorrow morning. Several colleagues who knew about tomorrow's trial specifically contacted her and asked her to give Calvin McAdam a proper sentence. Some even directly ordered him to be sentenced to death. The door at the far end of the room was pulled violently from the inside. A tall man with a body that is not too bulky, came out of the room in a condition that could not be said to be fine. His slender body and sunken eyeballs gave off a terrifying gloom, like he was one of the unhappy male characters in a hor

"Mommy..." Hazel still remained where she was, glancing warily at little Emily who was standing near the open door of her bedroom hugging Mr. Bunny. Calvin's piercing eyes in the darkness gleamed like the eyes of a hungry cat. No! Hazel screamed inwardly, screaming Emily's name for the little girl to run away for help. From her standing position, the little girl certainly couldn't see the threat from the presence of a foreign man who was now ensnaring her mother's body. “This gun can crush that kid's head if you don't act wise, Judge Hayes. Now stay here, and let me get rid of that nuisance rat.” Hazel tried to hold Calvin's hand still hanging over her head. Through her face, Hazel made a deep plea for Calvin not to hurt her little Emily. She tried to grab the man's hand. The sting that tickled her stomach made her gasp for a moment. But she assumed she wasn't the only one who felt a shock like an electric shock. She could see the man's pupils dilate

"What?" asked Hazel in surprise. She was still busy in her thoughts when the man suddenly said something nearby."Stand up. What time is it now?"“Four,” Hazel said angrily. She had lost her precious rest time because of that man. And don't know what will happen when the sun starts to appear. What is clear is that she cannot continue like this and become the man's puppet. She had to run away."Don't touch my hand!"Calvin ignored her screams. The man kept pulling her, half dragging her to her feet. And she was quite exhausted when she walked after the man because her bare feet stepped on a lot of papers. After this she had to spend hours of her time cleaning up all the mess Calvin had made. Really damn-troublesome guy."We still have time.""What time?" Hazel asked cluelessly."You'll find out later."Calvin forcibly grabbed Hazel's biceps and pushed her out of her study. The lights in the living room were not turne

"Tell me exactly what is going on right now." Hazel urged impatiently. But she kept glancing back to make sure Emily was busy in her imaginary world. Fortunately, the child watched too much of the Dora the Explorer series, so when she bragged about this escape and said that they were looking for treasures such as Dora and Boots, the girl immediately believed, even more enthusiastic than herself who had been hit by a severe panic. . "Jane texted me." Calvin suddenly pulled out one of the drawers on the dashboard of the car and pulled out a black cell phone. “This is the message Jane sent minutes before her death. She seems to have had a bad feeling about it, so she asked me to take Zinny as far away from the house as possible." "You have a cell phone?" Hazel looked amazed before she read the hastily typed words by Jane Duffal. “I kept this phone on purpose just in case you still doubt me.” “I do doubt you,” Hazel said quickly. Just as she was about to
