(Bella)

"Oh, shoot!" I exclaim as I realize I've been too caught up with the moment to check my phone, it's been on silence all evening.

I fumble for it in my purse, sitting in the backseat of the ride Ivy had ordered. When I pull it out, I'm hit by the multiple missed calls from Calvin.

He had asked that I text him as soon as I get there, it skipped my mind completely.

God, he must've been so worried.

There, he left a message, actually tons of messages. I opened them.

Calvin: Bella, are you okay? Are you still out with her? You aren't picking your calls, I'm worried, please reply to my messages as soon as you see them.

I take a deep breath, choosing to call him instead of texting back, I dialed his number pressing the phone to my ear.

"My God, are you alright Bella? I've been trying to call you but you didn't answer," Calvin says, his words coming out in a rush.

I dragged in a sharp breath. "Sorry, Calvin. My phone was on silent, I didn't hear it ring and I totally forgot to text you

    (Bella)I couldn't sleep, I tossed and turned all night, yesterday was….well a lot.Alot happened in one day.If Ivy hadn't showed up the time she did, I could — I could've been drugged. And then Dean showed up suddenly realizing I was innocent after five years.I was angry, hurt, a little sad and perhaps irritated all at once. But now I don't even know what I feel anymore.The rising sun streamed harshly into my room, cruelly informing me that my time for rest has come to an end.I toss one last time and dragged myself out of bed, maybe a long shower is what I need to get me out of this foul mood. But it doesn't.It took me several deep breaths and summoning every ounce of my strength to step out of my room.But unlike me, my kids happily buzzed beside Anne in the kitchen, welcoming the day with a beaming smile.Ignoring the lingering restlessness and my lack of sleep, I managed to paste a smile on my face before entering the kitchen."Mommy!" They both chorused, running up for a hug.

    (Bella)Derrick stared at me like I've just told one hell of a bad joke. "She found you?" He asked again, his eyes pinned on me as he straightens up.I nod, mirroring his expression. "Yep, Ivy did." I take a sip from my glass. "In the most terrific way ever," I say with a cheeky grin and studied Derrick's reaction.A smile appears, one that stretches into a big grin. "That's —almost unbelievable," he wowed. "I never even for a second thought she'd know, judging from the untraceable background," I give him a wry smile. "Well, technically she only just found out and she also mentioned that we wouldn't have found her no matter how hard we tried, hence the reason she came to me as soon as she had a detailed information,""Hmm, that explains all the hamper then, a bunch of detectives couldn't even find her," Derrick breathed out and then his gray eyes began to shimmer as it perks up. "How's she though? Does she look like Aunt Sarah , or you, perhaps the father? Or is she…,""Slow down Derr

    (Bella)"You were a whore Bella and you're still a whore. Jezz, what was I thinking?" Dean lashes out angrily as he threw pictures of me around the room.I haven't seen Dean this angry, it scares me to the pit of my stomach."I swear, Dean. This is all a lie, a mistake, a conspiracy," I wail, on my knees as I beg him to listen to me just this once."Shut the fuckk up, Bella. I'm done listening to you," he seethes. "My mom was right all along, a pig will always remain a pig," he spits the words out, like venom, unfiltered.My heart aches hearing those harsh words from him.Tears stream down my cheeks as I sobbed, but those tears doesn't move Dean, not anymore.My once loving husband, who stood his ground that I was his soulmate, who he wanted to spend the rest of his life with, against his family.He didn't care about their opinion of me.A stripper, an exotic dancer but none of that mattered to Dean. He loved me and married me against all odds."You still crave that life. Don't you?" H

    (Bella)The doorbell rings and jars me awake. I fling my eyes open, pulling myself up from the couch.My back hurts..Just then I realize it's the next day and I had slept off on the couch waiting for Dean.This only means one thing, Dean didn't come home last night.The very first day he's sleeping out.My eyes hurts as fresh tears stride down my cheeks but the doorbell rings again, this time continuously.I spring up.

And then when she shifts, I spot Ashley standing right behind.Before I could process what's going on, Judy pushes me aside, striding in like the queen of England.

    (Bella)I shove the papers on the table and Judy picks it up, her hand running through the papers in excitement.A smile crosses her face as he mutters. "Finally," she turns to Ashley and Elena, giving them a knowing smile and then back to me."Alright. Let's wrap it up real quick. Go in there and pack your things. The buyers are waiting, hurry up Bella," she spat, crossing her legs and relaxing into the couch.I stare at her, all of them, sobbing my eyes out.Where do I go from here?My life has been centered around Dean.

My heart torn apart as I packed my clothes, glancing around the house I'd started to set up as my forever home.The one I'd build a family with Dean and live happily ever after.

    (Dean)"That's enough Dean!" Ethan says as he drags the glass away from me, eyebrows raised."You're only hurting yourself. Drinking won't solve anything," he retorts. "You need to go home and at least hear Bella out,"I chuckle bitterly. "And listen to more lies?" I blurted out. "Those pictures are all the proof I needed. She's a slut, Ethan."Ethan shakes his head. "This is quite confusing. Bella loves you, I'm sure.""Pretense, all pretense, man. She deceived me into believing that. But truth is, she still craves her old life, she wants to be out there fucking them dudes. She's on birth control, didn't want to ruin her perfect shape," I snap."My mother, Aunt Elena, they were right after all. Bella is a filthy slut, no redemption.""You're drunk, Dean. We need to get you home," Ethan says, skipping right past my tantrums.I scoff. "Home?" I laugh. "That's no home.

    (Dean)Fury scratched it's way through my skin, seeping through every pore as I tried to digest what Arthur had just revealed over the ended phone call.His words still echoed in my head as I gripped my phone tighter. Ashley alongside my mother connived to set Bella up, how despicable."Three out of the men in the photos has confessed, turns out your girlfriend and your— mother paid them to have those pictures taken," Arthur strained through the phone and I could feel my blood run cold. "And the pills were very much planted by Ashley, isn't it?" I had asked."I'm afraid so," Arthur quipped back. "And Bella's ring, I'd have you know that your mother paid for it to be couriered to you, not Bella,"I gasp, finding it hard to breathe."Goddamn it!" Ethan cursed under his breath.Fury coiled within me, quickly turning into molten lava and threatening to erupt.God. How could my mother do this?I knew she was capable of many things but this?How could she intentionally ruin my life?And A

    (Ashley)I grip my phone tighter as I step down from my car, while Kendra hurriedly tried to catch up.I paced across the driveway, dialing Judy's number, it rings and yet no response.I clench my fist against my phone, feeling my blood boiling within me.She's been ignoring my calls since last night. Dean had surprisingly outed Raymond and I and the little indiscretion.Frankly, I never saw it coming. So you could imagine my shock when he revealed he had known all along.It was, well….But Judy is being ridiculous about it all, not like I did half of what I've done on my own. So, she should deal with it and stop acting like a goddamn saint!I don't care what she thinks, she can pretend she hates me but I know as well as she does that she's in this with me.If I go down, I'm definitely dragging her along with me.I paced, as much as I had convinced myself that Judy needs me no matter what, I could still feel the ounce of restlessness within me."Pick your goddamn phone!"

    (Bella)I can't seem to ignore the way Ivy looks at me, like she's found a lost treasure!I'm seated at the spacious balcony, adjoining her hotel room, taking in the stunning view of the city, the lights twinkle like stars and the distant hum of traffic creates a soothing ambience.Just like she had suggested, we left the club and took a cab here. And for some reason, my overly cautious self felt safe."Here," Ivy hands me a glass of wine with a smile, settling just across from me.I take a short sip and then I studied her. "You look— so much like mom," a soft smile appears."I do?" She raises her eyebrows, eagerly looking at me.I nod. "Absolutely, I'd show you her pictures later," I say and I see her eyes perk up.She looked at me with such warmth and intensity, it felt like a balm, soothing my mind. "I'd really love that," she replies, a bittersweet smile creeping up her face, I see relief and something else flash through her eyes, —- maybe pain.But then my thoughts spirals and I f

    (Dean)I opened the door to Rihanna's wide smile. "Hey bro," she says before stepping in.Her company is a welcomed distraction to my disheveled mind.I offered her a glass of wine before settling into the couch just across from her.She crosses her legs, taking a decent sip and then she watched me without saying a word."So what now?" she blurted out, bringing her glass down.I sighed, not sure how to put my emotions into words.When she didn't get a response, she straightens up, furrowing her eyebrows at me. "Look, you need to deal with this guilt. Otherwise, it's going to eat you alive—- and the tiniest chance you have of getting Bella back along with it,"I dragged in a sharp breath. "What if I lose her?" I find myself asking, unable to stop myself.Rihanna stares at me for a tad bit long before she drags in a shaky breath. "Trust me, you wouldn't want to know the pain of losing someone you love the most," she says, but there's an edge there.I hold her gaze, and I'm forced to ask

    (Bella)"You should be more careful," the black haired beauty winks at the bartender who looked like he never saw that coming.And then those gorgeous eyes landed on me and for a second I stilled, her mischievous grin is gone, replaced by a warm smile.And for some reason I couldn't stop a smile from creeping to my face as I hold her gaze and then she begins to walk up to me, her every step exudes confidence, drawing the attention of the people around.There's no denying it, she's elegant, so stunning, a badass in every word and the way she carries herself? Epic!There's something magnetic about her, something oddly familiar, I just can't wrap my head around why I feel drawn to a total stranger.And sure enough she appears before me, staring deep into my eyes and before I could will myself to say anything, she leans forward, pulling me into a big hug.Stunned, I blink. Not sure why I didn't feel the need to pull myself out of a stranger's embrace. Her hug brought silent comfort, warmt
