Hello guys, I'm so sorry that updates have been so slow. I know that I said that I would complete this book at the end of last month, but so much has been going on in my personal life since then. Writing has become so difficult for me because of everything going on. That's why updates have been so irregular. But please be rest assured that this story is going towards the end, and I'm trying my best to end it soon despite my problems. Thank you so much for understanding.

I'm sure you know the kind of man he is, but do you know that he's the one who hired someone to run over you with a car? Is that the man you're trying to protect?
Winter nodded earnestly, her eyes hopeful. “Then tell me right now. Where is that bastard hiding? Where is he keeping Doreen?” Winter's hope sank. “I don't know. Please believe me. He doesn't give a damn about me. He doesn't even pick up when I try to call him nowadays, and his phone was unreachab
The past two days have been the most agonizing of Desiree's life. Aside from the day Liam called to tell her he was going to make her mother pay for her betrayal, she hadn't heard anything else from him. Not even a single call. And to Desiree, not knowing anything about how her mother was doing for
Desiree felt like she was suffocating as she sat in the backseat of the moving car, sandwiched between two burly men, on the way to where Liam and her mother were. They'd put a black, opaque bag over her head as soon as they'd shoved her into the backseat so that she wouldn't see the trails they we
“How the hell is it that there are so many of you yet nobody saw those bastards taking her?!" Gerald screamed like a raging bull, directing his wrath at all the security men in front of him, including Jonas, who looked disturbed but not very pleased at the reprimand. “Gerald, like they've already t
