“I will not say a word about this until I have proof,” I said, folding my hands over my chest. She glared at me for a while before speaking.

“I will show you proof.”

………..

“Here, look at that,” she said handing me her phone after she had been scrolling through for a couple of minutes. I wondered what it was she wanted to show me.

I gasped when I saw the picture before me. It was a picture of my swollen and beaten-up face. I swiped and I saw more pictures and videos of different parts of my body where I had been bruised. Soon, my memory drifted back to when I was in the bathroom earlier that day. I did see some marks that I never noticed on my body. Little did I know that it was my husband who gave me those marks.

I was stubborn, I still refused to believe because I loved him and needed him in my life. Or so I thought. “Trust me, Jane, you don’t want anything to do with that man,” my sister tried to convince but I obviously turned deaf ears. “I believe our marriage can still work,” I s

    “Alright so just lay down right here. Take in deep breaths, and calm your mind. The doctor will be here soon,” the nurse said to me. She was making me lay down back flat on my bed. I did need to take deep breaths because I was a nervous wreck already.Her voice was already soothing enough and I took refuge in it while I relaxed my back. My head still hurt a little from all that thinking and remembering. I was glad there was a remedy for all of that. I knew Rick was lying to me about how we ended up. I wanted to know things for myself. I didn’t want even my sister to tell me what had happened because even if I confided in her, I was still the one who felt the pain. Nobody else can interpret the pain I felt but me. It was a roller coaster in my head.“I know that so many thoughts would be going on in your head right now,” the nurse smiled warmly at me. How did she do it? She must have really loved her job to actually spend her time being nice to patients. From my memory, while growing

    “It’s your husband,” he whispered, frantically looking around to make sure no one was to hear us. “What about him?” I asked, confused at that point because it could mean anything.“Please ma’am, I wouldn’t want to lose my job here but then I don’t want to watch you suffer forever,” he pleaded and a thousand and one things started running through my mind. “Did my husband ask you to kill me?!” I snapped, raising my voice while he rushed to cover my mouth with his hands“Shhh,” he hushed me and I kept mute. “What’s going on?” I whispered back to him and he hesitated a moment before telling me what the problem was.“He paid me to do the opposite surgery. He wants me to take away your memory forever so you will have no knowledge of your past that you don’t already remember,” he said and I gasped. “How’s that possible? Rick would never do that,” I refused to believe that my husband would do that to me.Well, who was I kidding, from the information I gathered, our marriage was never rosy, to

    “In love?” I gasped in shock staring at the doctor. “Well, I wouldn’t be surprised, Doctor. You have quite the body and I’ve been crushing on you since I got here,” I smirked and winked at him while he smiled back at me. “I will give the anesthesia now, you will be asleep in no time,” he smiled and I nodded. “I’m ready,” I said.He pressed a bell on the corner of the room to summon the nurses. The nurses rushed in and took me into the theatre. “Are you ready? Count down from 10,” the doctor said holding my hand while they injected something into me.“10, 9, 8, 7…” I counted and the more I went on, the heavier my eyes got. When I got to seven, my eyes closed shut.……….Throwback………“Hi, welcome to the most prestigious school in France. What’s your department?” A pretty lady with a beautiful smile tapped me from behind and when I turned around she was a rare gem. I had actually lost my way as I just got to France a few days before and decided to visit my school to start with the regist

    ……. Throwback Ends…….I was slowly coming back to life as I heard the beeping sounds of the machines and I felt something on my nose because I wasn’t breathing pure air. I tried to open my eyes and I had a terrible headache instantly. The headache shot through my entire body.Where was I? I pondered for a minute then remembered I had just gone through surgery. A surgery that was going to determine my fate in the nearest future.I finally opened my eyes and was welcomed by the blurry sight of bright light. I squinted my eyes as much as possible trying to avoid the light from burning my eyes.I looked to my side and saw a notebook then memories came flashing into my brain. I remembered how the doctor had given me that notebook and how I had written something down on it. I sat up carefully on my bed and reached for the notebook. When I read the content, my heart rate shot up. What if it didn’t work? Am I not supposed to start remembering things now? Let me try.I took in a deep breath a

    “Hello, excuse me,” I saw Landry’s head poking out of the door. My husband and I were doing some catching up and flirting with each other just like in the good old days. “You’re excused,” Rich replied with a welcoming smile. I admired him all over again. For a second, the memories of everything he did to me washed away. Just for a second. I kept trying to hold on to that one string of hope that he actually loves me and is willing to change. Call it delusional if you want.“My days doctor. I feel like shit,” I remarked which caused them to cackle loudly. “It’s pretty normal and should resolve in 24 hours,” he smiled back at me and he looked as pretty as always.I could remember when I used to meet up with him anytime my husband was out cheating on me or even worse, inside cheating on me.How I met him? You may ask. …….Throwback……“You had no right Rick!” I thundered. I went to his bedroom that morning and saw two females walking out of his bathtub covered in their respective towels.

    …… Throwback Continues…….“ and what might be the matter with your marriage.” He asked, settling down into his chair. I started wondering if I should satisfy his curiosity or keep playing with him.As far as I was concerned, I wanted to have fun and forget the shortcomings of my marriage. “Poor thing,” I said, smiling sheepishly at him.“And what are you? An assistant? A student? How do you think you can help me?” I placed my jaw in my hand, staring at him. I could see that he was a bit uneasy about the way I was looking at him.At that point, I didn’t think of anything else but to take him to my bed. So I decided to play a damsel in distress. “No, ma’am. I’m actually a certified doctor and Maria happens to be my sweet aunt,” he smiled confidently as I looked at him in awe.“Brilliant. Then you must tell me why my husband chases after every single thing in skirts. Why!!” I said, raising my voice slightly. He quickly stood up and went to lock the doors.

    "Oh, come on, you and I know that's not what you want to hear, OK?" I said, gazing deep into his eyes, trying to use my charm to manipulate him. He looked apprehensive, visibly swallowing hard, which amused me, causing a slight giggle to escape my lips. I reached out and lightly touched his hands resting on the table, urging him to relax. "OK, calm down. I'm not going to do anything to you. Come on."He nervously chuckled and retorted, "And who says I don't know exactly what you want? Who says that what you have in mind is not exactly what I have in mind to do to you, baby?""That's a good boy. So, then I wasn't crazy when I saw you staring at my legs just a few minutes ago," I said playfully, and he chuckled lightly while glancing at his shoes and then back at me."What do you want, ma'am?" he asked."Oh, nothing much. I just want somebody to rub my feet, massage my back, make me feel good, you know?" I replied, tracing my fingers up his arm, making him visibly nervous. “Ma’am, you

    ………..Throwback Ends………“So when can she be discharged?” Rick asked the doctor who was busy exchanging cute glances with me. I could remember the look in his eyes when he had his way with me. Oh I missed those, I thought, biting my lips.I soon recollected myself before Rick could notice anything. “She just needs a few hours of rest then she can go home. But she can still go home with you and rest afterward,” he said, smiling with excitement.“Of course. Thank you doctor,” Rick smiled at him with a firm handshake. “Congratulations you two. She will be fine,” Landry smiled back at him and left the room.“It’s me and you now. I promise, I won’t let anything happen to you. I promise to love and cherish you my beautiful wife,” he said so affectionately as he rubbed my forehead and ran his fingers through my hair. If I didn’t know better, I would have thought he actually truly loved me. Poor shame.“Are you okay baby? Haven’t you always loved and cherished me? Like the trophy wife that I am

    “Well! Now, we’re going to have to make a new round of chicken,” I said, groaning angrily while he chuckled and pointed toward the store room.“At least we have a whole island of them,” he joked and I nodded, slightly feeling guilty about wasting food.I had grown up to know that wasting food was not an option and here I was, abusing the gift of abundance. I needed to retrace my steps.“Why don’t we just order takeout?” I suggested and he pondered a while over it before he shrugged and looked me in the eyes.“What?” I asked and he shrugged. “Well, why do you want takeout?” He asked and I rolled my eyes. He was literally impossible.“Don’t give me that look! I just want to know why. I can cook the food if that is what it’s about,” he pressured but I was already having a headache as he kept going on and on.“I didn't know men talk a lot,” I spat and he looked at me with a surprised expression.“Okay, I’m only talking this much because I want you to be comfortable with me. I don’t want

    “Oh, I see. Well, it is hard for a guy to pass by you and not stare at you with his eyes or even make a passing comment. But that’s not what we’re trying to talk about here,” he said, noticing my uncomfortable look. “I’m sorry, okay? I just want to keep letting you know how beautiful you are and how lucky I feel to have you over. How lucky I feel that both of us are sharing the same house at the moment. How lucky I feel that I’m helping you with whatever it is that you need, okay? I don’t want you to feel uncomfortable near me. I want you to feel very comfortable because it’s going to be a long ride in the long run. But I need to remind you once in a while how crazy you drive me,” he said and I blushed again.“Okay, I’ve heard you. I’ve heard everything you said. Now, I guess it’s time to go and have dinner. Maybe. I’m starving,” I said to him as he nodded in agreement. “Of course, yeah, dinner. I didn’t even realize how much time had passed since I stayed with you. You make time go

    “Alright then, we can drive there right now,” David said with a mischievous grin. I looked outside and saw that it was already getting dark. I just wanted to smile and relax and wait, because obviously he couldn’t penetrate that safe. And I made sure that it was a high-quality safe that I laid my hands on while I was at UNI. You know, that woman who first gave me those original documents? She also gave me that safe. Nobody could crack it open, not even the best programmer in the world. It couldn’t even be blown up by a bomb. It was just a safe, just the way it was. So I was less bothered about that, but what I was a little bit bothered about was the fact that he would go in there and probably start taking all the furniture and all his clothes and all that.“Don’t worry, there’s no rush. Revenge, especially the sweet ones, take time. We’re going to go tomorrow. It’s already getting late. We should make something to eat and go to bed,” I said to him with a smile. He smiled back

    “Jane, Jane, relax.” David said, as he rushed towards me. He tried to hold my shoulders, because I looked like I was going crazy. Like I was going mad. And he was probably very afraid at that point, because I was acting batshit crazy. That I was going to injure myself or him. So he held me firmly in his arms and made me look at his eyes. His caring eyes.I said to him, with tears in my eyes, “All the assets, everything I worked my ass off for, everything is gone. I have searched everywhere. I have checked everything. Maybe I misplaced it. But no. Henry has betrayed me.” I said in the most heartbreaking voice you could ever imagine.I was so heartbroken, because I never would have done the same to Henry. But why did he do this to me? He had stolen from me. And I would not stop until I had stolen back from him.“I always knew Henry was shady for that thing he did. Of course, it had nothing to do with getting married to you or you being a terrible person to get married to. There were alw

    “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” I said, with a very nervous chuckle, as I tucked my hair behind my ears and faced forward, avoiding his gaze. But deep down, I knew he was right about what he was saying. I was just very afraid to admit the truth. He asked again, “Jane, look at me. We need all the information we can get if we’re going to get to the bottom of this. You don’t have to be afraid to release any information. You don’t have to be reluctant to do that, OK? I’m here, standing by your side. I’m always by your side and I will forever be by your side. Right now, we need all the information we can get. You’re the only one who can give us that information. Do you understand, Jane?” He asked, looking at me intently. I shook my head, feeling overwhelmed by emotions. I didn’t know how to feel at that point, because he was right. I knew so many things that could have made Henry make this decision of his. Or whatever it was. I knew quite a few things about why he may have lef

    “OK, so I have some detective friends who could also help out in your case, but I need your consent with everything. I promise you it’s not an affiliation with anybody, not your ex-husband, not your fiancé. You know I just really want to help, just in case you need backup. Is that OK with you?” He asked, his voice gentle and reassuring.I looked at him, feeling a surge of gratitude and affection.His eyes met mine, and I saw a flicker of something else in them. Something warm and tender, something that made my heart skip a beat.I almost wanted to jump up and hug him, but I had to comport myself because I was a lady. Oh, fuck it, I thought, and jumped up and hugged him tightly. He wrapped his arms around me, holding me close.“What was that for?” He asked, sounding surprised but pleased.I smiled shyly and pulled away slightly. “Well, you care about me more than anyone else cared about me ever since I lost my child. So I think you deserve more than that.” I said softly.He took my ja

    “Why don’t you call them to know what’s up?” He asked, looking at me with concern. I shook my head.“No, no, no, no. We already spoke about this. We discussed it. It’s OK. They will have to be the one to call me after the mission is complete. I can’t call them now. It would be destroying something in the mission.” I said, biting my lip nervously. I was already tapping my feet fast on the ground and grinding my teeth anxiously. Just remembering everything already brought a knot to my stomach and a lump to my throat. And I guess he noticed, because he reached out to my hands and took them in his. He rubbed them gently and gave me a reassuring smile.“It’s OK. I’m sure you’re going to get the text soon. But I need to ask you some questions. I don’t know if it will be OK for you to answer them for me.” He said and I looked at him. I hesitated a little bit, because I didn’t say I was going to trust anyone with the information that I had. But I was willing to give him a small chance. May

    “Oh, not so fast, David,” I said, holding up my hand. “Not so fast. You have to take it easy with all this flattery. I’m very quick to fall in love, haven’t you noticed that?” I teased him and he looked at me with a twinkle in his eyes. His smile matched his eyes, bright and warm. It was one of the most brilliant features about him. Was I falling in love again? I had just promised myself that I wouldn’t fall in love so quickly, but I couldn’t help it. This man was amazing. So good looking… Even more good looking than Henry and Rick combined. And I had a very high affinity for very good looking men. And to be honest, at that point, I didn’t really care. I just felt that I should live life and just be who I wanted to be, when I wanted to be, and how I wanted to be.“Oh, I have noticed,” he said, leaning closer to me. “We did have quite the chemistry there when I first walked into the room. When I got coffee with you, you know… I felt it. It was kind of obvious. But I didn’t think anyth

    I felt dizzy for a while because I was so confused. I was usually the one who said I love you first in all my relationships. I was usually the one who made the first move, probably because of my desperation. I hoped so much that this man wouldn’t see through my desperation, that he wouldn’t see how desperate I was to find somebody to love. But obviously, I was wrong because he saw it. Why would a man be telling me that he loved me on the very first day we met? And given the circumstances surrounding it, it was a big lie, at least in my ears. What did he mean by love at first sight?“Jane, Jane, did you hear what I said?” David’s voice woke me up from my little mini trance right there. I didn’t even realize that I had drifted off from the normal conversation that we were having. But in truth, I didn’t know what to reply to that because obviously, I didn’t love him. But I did have a little bit of liking for him. And if there’s anything I’ve learned over the past few months, it’
