The air was chilled and cold as the night reached and the clouds were covered with dark clouds. I walked boldly to the restaurant that Miriam had picked for our dinner date, it was classy just like she had always wanted her dates to be.

I knew that Miriam liked Spencer a lot, which was not my problem. I have already made up my mind to make her mine once Spencer was out of the way.

But to get the deed done, I needed someone who would be a good informant to me. Miriam was the best person to play this role, however, she must remain in the dark about the role that she was about to play.

“You have a fine taste, Miriam, like always,” I complimented her.

My mission tonight was simple… convince Miriam to feed me with a few important information about Spencer and in exchange for her hard work, I will get rid of Sydney Talker who posed as a great threat to her.

“Thank you, Collins,” she replied as she blushed slightly.

Knowing too well that Miriam was not the kind of lady who was swayed easil

    ** Sydney **“Lydia, I know that you're busy at work but I can't help but miss you,” I said.I was feeling bored at home. Lydia was on her night shift which meant that I was going to be alone till tomorrow night. Since I couldn't sleep at all, I decided to call her and talk with her for some time.“I know how much you're missing me and I hope you know that I'm done for if my boss catches me stuffed up in the toilet on a call,” she said in a whisper.Her voice was so low that I barely heard what she said. “I know how you're feeling but just spare me five minutes of your time, please.”“Fine! You know that I can't resist you,” she said with gritted teeth.“So tell me how your work is going?” I asked.“Today was awful. Someone died and the doctors kept yelling at us because they wanted to save that patient's life,” she replied.I sighed, feeling bad for the patient who had died.“Sorry to hear that. I can't wait to see you tomorrow,” I said.“Same here. How did your work go?” “Aiden an

    I felt the cold water being splashed on me several times, I gasped and snapped my eyes open immediately. I was in an unknown room and my hands were tied to the back of the chair behind me. Tessa and Collins stood in front of me with a concerned look on their faces, but when they saw that I was okay, their smiles were replaced by a smirk.“I'm deeply sorry for the way Tessa mishandled you. For a second, I thought you were never going to wake up,” Collins mocked.“Get me out of here. How can you be Spencer's cousin brother and still have the mind to do this to me?” I asked him as tears spilled down my eyes.I don't understand why this is happening to me. This isn't the way I mapped out my life to be. Leaving my marriage was never my intention but being kidnapped by Spencer's cousin's brother is way out of the league. It's not even making any sense to me at all.“Unfortunately, I believe that you have not asked Spencer about his past. Let me give you some highlights of what happened to S

    ** Spencer **I was uncomfortable on my bed… I can't tell why but I had a bad feeling about something, I can't even comprehend what the thing is. I rolled on my bed several times until I could not bear it anymore.I picked up my phone and left for the kitchen to grab a bottle of water. While on it, I call my mother. Whenever I feel down, she has always been the person who comforts me and assures me that everything will be fine.“Hello, son. How are you doing?” Elizabeth's soothing voice rang in my ear.“Mother, I'm not sure how I'm doing. I mean, physically, I'm okay but emotionally, I'm uncertain about it,” I replied honestly.“Why are you feeling like that?”I sighed. “I don't even know.”“Spencer, is there any woman in your life?” The question threw me off my guard. I was not expecting her to ask me such a thing. Not like I don't share stuff with my mother, but I keep her in the dark about my sex life.I scratched my forehead softly, contemplating whether I should come clean with

    Her eyes opened slowly after being administered some medications by the doctor. I held her hand tight as she stirred on the bed.“Sydney, you are finally awake,” I said to her.She turned to look at my face then she pulled her hand from mine. “ Why did you come to save me?” She asked.That was a weird question. I was expecting her to be happy and grateful that I rescued her but instead, she was angry at me.“What do you mean by that?” I asked her.She was silent for a while then she shook her head. “Forget about it,” she replied.“Sydney, you know that you can talk to me about anything,” I said.“All I want is a glass of water,” she said instead.I nodded and poured out a glass of water for her to drink. The door opened and Lydia walked in with worry written all over her face.“Syd, are you okay now?” Lydia asked.“Yes, I am fine now,” Sydney replied.“Let me call the doctor, I'm coming back,” Lydia said and left.“What happened to you last night? Do you have any idea about who was the

    ** Sydney **I stood in awe in front of the mirror. It was still like a fairytale story to me… I was officially in a relationship with Spencer Martins. I thought I could prevent this from happening but it was as if fate had the upper hand, all we had to do was succumb to what it had in store for us. Lydia came into the room, her eyes on me like a hawk.“Come on, Lydia. Nothing is going to happen to me,” I said to her.“How can I tell? The last time I let you off my sight, you got kidnapped,” she said.She sounded really worried about what had happened. I could tell from the way her face twisted in worry whenever she looked at me. I don't want Lydia to carry the responsibility of having to look after me. After all, it wasn't her fault that Collins and Tessa wanted to use me to get rid of Spencer so badly.And about that…I haven't told Spencer the truth yet. I know that I should probably tell him about his crazy cousin's brother and his ally who wants him out. But I am also scared of l

    “What do you want now?” I asked her.I was already boiling in anger as I remembered that Miriam was the reason why Collins had kidnapped me in the first place. I'm supposed to be the one to bombard her with loads of questions about what she was doing with Collins and why she had told him about me.“I heard from Spencer that you were also kidnapped. Who was the mastermind behind your kidnap?” Miriam asked.I sighed. Of course, this was all she wanted to know about. If I tell Miriam about Collins, this will boost their alliance and make them partners in crime. Miriam would do whatever she could to get rid of me so she could have Spencer to herself.“I don't know who was behind the kidnap. Just as you were kept in the dark, so was I. I also want to know who the mastermind is but there is no way I can figure that out because all the traces have been cleaned up,” I replied smartly, keeping a straight face so that Miriam would not suspect me.“It's so frustrating as I continue to think abou

    The night of the baby shower came quickly, I didn't even expect the days to go by so fast. Spencer came to pick Lydia and I up, he was also coming with Max so that I will not feel utterly alone.“Thank you for doing this,” I said to Spencer immediately Lydia and I entered the car.“You don't have to thank me for this. It's my responsibility to do this for you,”Spencer replied.“Hey, Lydia. It's been awhile,” Max waved to her.She scoffed, “Don't pretend like this is your first time seeing me and please, stop coming to my workplace frequently.” I and Spencer giggled. The both of them were like a cat and a rat, they never got along with each other although I'm aware that Max likes Lydia a lot.“Your workplace is a hospital, Lydia. I'll always come there whenever I'm not feeling fine,” Max replied.“You are always feeling fine and totally stressing me out there. If I ever see you again, I'll quit my job because of you,” she snapped.Max sighed. “It's alright, you don't have to quit your

    I sighed as I turned around to see Jessica, standing behind me with her hand on her waist. She wasn't alone, her mother , Andrea was standing beside her. Both women had a smug expression on their faces as they glared at me. I was ready for anything they were about to say to me.I have always known that my conversation with my husband's family never ended well, so now that I wasn't a part of their family, the conversation was not going to be any different.“Hi, good evening, Jessica and Andrea. It's been a very long time since I saw you two last,” I said, trying hard to sound as nice as possible.Jessica guffawed. “You really have the guts to show your face here after all the drama you acted back then. I thought that you will never show your face to us ever since you walked out of this family. But here you are, acting like you're the nicest person in this fucking world!”“I know that you never liked me, Jessica. But can we put that aside and keep our characters together at least for Ai

    ** Sydney ** The day had finally arrived. The warm sunlight streamed through the tall windows of the bridal suite, casting a soft glow over everything it touched. I stood in front of the mirror, staring at my reflection in awe. The white dress I wore was a dream, elegant and simple, yet breathtaking in its detail. The lace sleeves hugged my arms, and the fabric flowed down like a waterfall, pooling gently at my feet. I could hardly believe it was me. I couldn’t help but smile, my heart fluttering with excitement. Today was the day I would marry Spencer—the man who had walked into my life at a time when I needed him the most, and the man I had grown to love more than I ever thought possible. The past few months had been a whirlwind, but in that moment, nothing else mattered. It was just us. There was a knock at the door, and Lydia, my best friend and now my maid of honor, peeked her head in. “You ready?” she asked with a grin. “As ready as I’ll ever be,” I said, my voice shaking sli

    Elizabeth was sitting calmly in the living room, her legs were crossed and I could feel the elegance as it emanated from her calmness. My heartbeat was louder than the sound that came from the movie that she was watching in the television."Mom, you're here," Spencer said to get her attention.She turned around and smiled at him, when she looked at me, she maintained a mild expression before looking back at her son. "Yes, Spencer. I was bored at my place so I decided to come over and see you and Sydney," she replied to him.Spencer ordered a tray of fruits for his mom while we settled down to keep her company."You are looking healthy, Sydney," she complimented me."Thank you," I said with nervousness. I felt like my nervous system was going to break down any minute from now."Spencer, can you spare me twenty minutes of a private moment with Sydney?" Elizabeth asked her son.Spencer nodded and stood up, "Okay."As soon as he left, my heart sank further because I thought that Elizabeth

    ** Sydney**I felt his touch on my hair and earlobe and neck, his hands were all over my face but his touch was gentle, sweet and arousing. I stirred my eyes open slowly, I didn't want to wake up in the first place because the last few events have been exhausting for me.Learning the truth in the most painful manner was exhausting enough for me, I was glad that I was done with the Talker's family although it was not yet official. Aiden had really used my heart and broken it into a million pieces but in the darkest of hearts, I have found Spencer and he was willing to be my ride or die for life and nothing was going to change that forever."Good morning, sleepy head," Spencer murmured in my eyes and I giggled, that sweet feeling of being a loved woman has returned to me again."Spencer, why are you disturbing I and the baby so early in the morning?" I asked, pretending to be angry at him.He kissed my forehead and then my baby bump that was more visible now, we were almost at sixteen w

    ** Sydney ** I had thought about it for days before deciding to make the trip to see Joyceline. Part of me had wanted to avoid her altogether, to leave everything she had done in the past where it belonged—behind me. But there was another part, the part that needed closure, that needed to confront her, not out of anger or vengeance, but to finally put everything to rest. The drive to the jail was long, giving me too much time to think. As I parked the car and walked inside, my heart beat steadily in my chest, though I wasn’t sure if it was from nerves or resolve. It felt surreal, walking into this place, knowing that the woman who had once been my friend had turned against me in such a cruel way. They led me through the dimly lit hallways to a small room, separated by a pane of glass. Joyceline would be brought in soon, and I would finally face her. I sat down on the cold metal chair, my fingers tapping lightly on the surface of the table as I waited. When she entered, escorted by

    ** Sydney ** The pen trembled slightly in my hand as I hovered over the final line of the divorce papers. It was surreal to think that after everything, it was finally coming to an end. My marriage to Aiden—the lies, the manipulation, the deceit—was all about to be over with one stroke of a pen. I let out a deep breath and pressed the ink down, signing my name for the last time as his wife. It was done. I was free. I sat back in my chair, feeling both a weight lift off my chest and a strange emptiness settle in its place. It wasn’t like I was sad to see Aiden go. In fact, I was relieved. But the reality of it all—how much I had endured, how much I had fought for, only to end up here—left me feeling raw, exposed. “You alright?” Spencer’s voice cut through my thoughts, gentle but concerned. He was sitting across from me, his eyes soft as he watched me. I nodded, giving him a small smile. “Yeah. It’s just… surreal.” He reached across the table and took my hand, giving it a comfortin

    ** Spencer ** “Sydney, we need to talk about this now,” I said. She nodded, biting her lip as she tried to hold back more tears. “I just… I don’t know what to do or say now.” I gently took her hand, giving it a reassuring squeeze. “You’ll figure it out, Sydney. You’re strong. And whatever you decide, I’ll be here for you. Always.” She looked up at me, her eyes filled with gratitude, and for a moment, the tension in the room lifted. We sat there in silence, just the two of us, and for the first time in a long time, I felt like maybe—just maybe—things would be okay again. I stayed close to Sydney, watching as the emotions played across her face. Her eyes, once filled with hurt and confusion, softened slightly as the reality of everything settled in. I could see the exhaustion in her, both from the ordeal with Aiden and the emotional rollercoaster she’d been on ever since he came back into her life. For a moment, I didn’t know what else to say. I just held her hand, letting the sil

    Spencer’s POV I lost track of time after they took Sydney in. The sterile hospital walls felt like they were closing in, and the ticking of the clock in the waiting room was deafening. I kept pacing, back and forth, my mind racing with worst-case scenarios. What if the drug Joyceline gave her had lasting effects? What if the baby was harmed? Every minute felt like a lifetime. Max had come by earlier, sitting with me for a bit before he had to head out. His presence had been grounding, but now I was alone, back to circling the room. The nurses occasionally gave me sympathetic looks, but none of them had any answers. I ran my hands through my hair for what felt like the hundredth time. I couldn’t lose her. Not now. Not after everything. Finally, after what seemed like hours, the door to the waiting room swung open. I spun around, my heart pounding as the doctor walked in, clipboard in hand. I rushed up to him before he could even say a word. “How is she? Is Sydney okay? And the bab

    **Spencer** The tension in the police van was palpable, the hum of the engine the only sound breaking the silence as we raced toward the location Collins had texted me. My hands were clenched tight, knuckles white from the grip I had on my phone. The moment the message had come through, I knew this was it—this was where Joyceline was holding Sydney. A sense of dread had been eating at me ever since I found out what Joyceline had planned. I should have seen it coming. After all, she was never one to back down, especially not when it came to getting what she wanted. But this… this was insane, even for her. I glanced at the police officers sitting beside me, their faces grim and focused. They had been briefed, and they knew how delicate this situation was. Sydney was pregnant, and any wrong move could not only endanger her but also the baby. The head of the task force, Officer Richards, looked over at me. “We’re almost there. Stay calm, Martin. We’ll handle this.” I nodded, swallowin

    ** Sydney ** I sat at the café, stirring the spoon in my coffee absentmindedly. The tension in my stomach hadn’t eased since Joyceline had called. I glanced at the door every few seconds, scanning each new arrival. My nerves were on high alert, and it didn’t help that Joyceline had always been good at getting under my skin. I tried to recall the last time we had spoken before everything exploded. She was the person I trusted with everything, my best friend—or at least, she had been before the betrayal. And now, here I was, waiting for her as if things hadn’t completely fallen apart. The door chimed, and in walked Joyceline. She wore her signature smirk, her eyes scanning the café until they landed on me. Her outfit was immaculate as always—a designer coat draped over her shoulders, her heels clicking as she walked confidently toward my table. Nothing about her seemed different on the surface, yet there was something in her eyes… something I couldn’t quite place. “Sydney,” she gree
