“ Carina…” Martins eyes widened in shock, Was this a look alike or was it a look alike, He didn’t care. Although their eyes didn’t meet, he knew that he saw Carina . “ Was that the car that was drove pass us ?” Martins asked pointing at a black car. “ Mister Martins , Several cars drove pass us , Which car are you talking about?” “ People sure know how to take risk ….. You made that statement after you saw a lady brought her head out of a car , Right ?” Martins said in a hurry trying to make his driver remember the car so they can follow it . “ That was few minutes ago ….” “ What was the car like ! Follow the car “ “ Mister Martins , I’m sorry but I don’t even know this car we are talking about “ “ So are you telling me that I lost her “ Martins sighed . “ Lost who ?” The driver asked.“ Never mind …” Martins sighed , His eyes fixed outside the window, What if he was hallucinating?Since the news of carina’s death was announced and after he watched her coffin being buried,
Martins opened his hotel room and took a deep breath , He sighed and threw himself in his bed , Was it just an hallucination or was it because he missed Carina too much , He didn’t understand what was going on with him and how he could possibly control himself, He was slowly loosing it since Carina died , He couldn’t control his anger anymore , his heart was cold and he felt rage whenever he saw luke and his mother , He had to leave the country to avoid doing something that he was going to regret later on . “ Martins … She’s dead , You have to move on with your life “ Martins whispered to himself after a while , He stood up and spoke again . “ How can u possibly forget about her when she lives rent free in my head , I can’t help it , Should I see my therapist this week , i am seeing things” Martins kept on repeating himself as he paced around the room . He picked up his phone to call madam Katie and tell her what had happened to him but he didn’t, it hasn’t been easy on the old lad
Madam Katie didn’t know how to react , She was too shocked to speak,Richard had just said it to her that Carina was alive and wanted her to know that she was alive , She took a moment and sat down to digest what Richard had just said to her , she immediately burst into tears. “ So my baby is alive … Carina is actually alive “ “ Yes she is alive and she is currently staying at my sister’s house in London for now , You can send someone to check if I am right or wrong, I can also give your new contact line , So you can see for yourself “ Richard added , Madam Katie was about to speak , she was too shock to even give him a reply . “ Yes … Yes please “ She stuttered. “ Also I would like to talk to you about carina’s health, She is currently suffering from temporary amnesia , She has started to recover her memories but she constantly has migraines, so I would advise that you take it slowly on her “ Richard explained and Katie nodded even though she was sad that Carina was suffering.
My heart skipped a beat immediately I heard her voice,I could feel it again,Her love and care,I struggled to reply but I couldn't find the right words to use and so I remained silent for a while trying to calm myself down." Carina… is that you? Is it you, my child?" She asked and I replied choking in my own tears." Yes … It's me , I'm alive,I am not dead, It's me " I was mumbling.When I saw photos of my proposed funeral online,I couldn't shake off the feeling of irritation.It felt good to say it out loud that I was alive. On the other end of the call, Madam Katie was bawling her eyes.She immediately switched the call to a facetime.She was seeing Carina on her screen.She looked pale but it was Carina for sure." My strong girl ! I knew it ….I knew something was fishy when they refused to open that coffin…"" They wanted to put me six feet for sure,My sister and My husband…" The memory came back to her ,All of it when she saw the photo at Emily's house and she hoped she didn't reme
Emily decided to let me and Martins discuss the garden for some time. “ I’m going to leave the two of you, Martins looks like he is still in shock “ Emily smiled. “ You too know each other ?” I was shocked that she spoke about him so casually. “ Let’s say we have done business together plus Martin is a celebrity businessman, The question is who doesn’t know him ?” Emily said and she left us. Martins grabbed my hands so tight that his hands were enveloped in my palms, I smiled because I could genuinely see that he suffered a lot because of the fake news of my death. “ So … Did you hear about Luke and Nelly getting married ?” I asked and Martin's mood immediately went down. “ How did you hear about that ?” Martins asked. Martins was shocked, She mentioned it so casually like she was announcing the wedding ceremony of some random people. “ Madam Katie and I had a conversation, didn't she tell you about it ?” “ She did …I’m shocked your reaction is so neutral, Unbothered… I can’
Two days until I make my epic comeback, I wss standing in front of a mirror looking at a completely different woman, Emily helped with elevating my style and my looks and it even made my confidence even better, Martins and I was going to be picking Madam Katie up from the airport and tomorrow we will be traveling to lenevile and I will arrive back in Seattle before the wedding. " Martins is outside waiting for you" Emily walked in. " Ohhhh is he " " Yeah,I see your luggages is all ready, This is goodbye then" Emily smiled and I moved closer to her and gave her a hug." Thank you, Thank you very much for everything that you did for me …" " it's nothing Carina, What I want you to do for is to make sure you get your revenge and in the best way possible,I am rooting for you" " I will" " Let's go ,We don't want to keep martins waiting for too long" She said, helping with my luggage." Are you coming with us to lenevile,I actually want to say a proper goodbye to your mother and brothe
We wrapped up everything we had to do in London and we headed for lenevile, Emily was there to see her off and she had few advice for me .“ Thank you for taking care of her while she was here,” Madam Katie said to Emily. “ It's fine,Who knew we will meet like this after our last business transaction” After few discussions,We headed for Martins hotel so he could pack up and Madam Katie had to rest too,We decided to leave by train to lenevile because we couldn't get any ticket, Our ride to lenevile was interactive,Madam Katie was catching me up with everything that happened while I was away. “ Does Martins know you have temporary amnesia?” Madam Katie asked,Martin's eyes widened in shock,He turned to look at me and I shrugged my shoulders.“ Ahhhh… I forgot to mention,When I hit my head,I lost my memory but with time it came back” I briefed martins.“ I mean you have been acting a little bit weird,Does Amnesia have an effect on character?” “ Are you teasing me again!” I scoffed.“
“ I guess you are too blind to see how much he likes you “ “ What do you mean he likes me ? It’s nothing of that nature , We have been friends for years “ Richard and I took a walk around the pack and while he spoke about the town , I was more engaged with what he spoke about few minutes ago , I received a text from martins urging me to return back because we will be leaving for the airport soon . “ What’s that look on your face ?” Richard asked with a soft smirk. “ I wonder how it will feel like ?” I sighed . “ What’s that ?” He replied . “ Being face to face with the people that ruined my life and separated me from my daughter, The look on their faces when they finally found out that I am not dead , I cannot wait to see if ““ You’ve got this Carina, Do not break down in their front , Be strong , Be outspoken…That’s what will make them even more scared of your growth” Richard advised . “ Thank you …” My phone beeped and it was martins calling “ He is calling you, We should
Dear Diary It’s been three years since everything changed. Sometimes I still marvel at how quickly life can transform from chaos to calm, from pain to peace. I’m sitting in my room now, surrounded by the comforting hum of everyday life, and I feel compelled to capture this moment, to reflect on how far we’ve come, Everyday I wonder if it's a dream but I don't think I want to ever wake up from this dream,I am finally happy, Over the years things have changed but let me take you on the ride. Martins and I are happily married,Ohh and our wedding was the talk of the town, Every day with him feels like a blessing. We have twins now, A beautiful girl and a boy, Their laughter fills our home, and watching them grow has been one of the greatest joys of my life, Leah won't stop thanking us for giving her siblings, She has settled into junior high school remarkably well. She’s blossomed into a bright, confident young woman, and I couldn’t be prouder, The stigma that her father was a murder
I felt a surge of excitement that I couldn’t contain. I wanted to share the incredible news about our engagement with the people who had supported me throughout this journey. Without hesitation, I reached for my phone and dialed Madam Katie’s number.“Hello?” Madam Katie’s warm voice greeted me.“Madam Katie! It’s Carina,” I said, barely able to keep the excitement out of my voice. “I have some wonderful news to share with you!”“Oh, Carina! What’s going on?” she asked, her tone immediately brightening.“I’m engaged!” I blurted out. “Martins proposed to me tonight here in Jeju, and I said yes!”There was a brief pause before Madam Katie’s delighted gasp came through the line. “Oh, Carina, that’s wonderful! Congratulations! I’m so happy for you both.”“Thank you! I wish you could have been here to celebrate with us,” I said, my voice filled with happiness. “We had a perfect evening. The setting was beautiful, and the proposal was just as magical as I’d hoped it would be.”“I’m sure it
Martins and I had spent a perfect week exploring the island, soaking in its natural beauty, and trying out new experiences. Today was our last day, and I couldn’t believe how quickly the time had flown by. I’d been recording every moment for a special video, capturing the highlights of our trip.After finishing up my latest video segment about our visit to a stunning waterfall, I was excited to see what Martins had planned for our final evening. He had hinted at a surprise, and the anticipation made my heart race.As we walked back to our accommodation, Martins was unusually quiet, his gaze occasionally shifting to me with a secretive smile. I couldn’t help but wonder what he had in store. When we reached our place, he helped me get ready, making sure I looked my best for whatever the evening had in store.A private car soon arrived to take us to a special restaurant Martins had booked. The ride through the picturesque streets of Jeju felt almost surreal, with the soft evening light c
Carina and Martins prepared for their much-anticipated trip to Jeju Island, the air was filled with a mix of excitement and relief. They had dropped Leah off with Mandy, who was more than happy to look after her. Carina had managed to give Leah a quick hug and a few reassuring words before they left. The bittersweet feeling of leaving Leah behind was softened by the knowledge that she was in good hands. Mandy and Leah stood at the airport, waving goodbye as Carina and Martins made their way to the boarding gate.The airport was bustling with activity, but Carina felt a sense of calm wash over her as they approached the gate. She and Martins had been looking forward to this trip for weeks. It was their chance to unwind and escape the chaos that had dominated their lives recently.As they boarded the plane, Carina felt a flutter of anticipation. She and Martins settled into their seats, and Carina glanced around the cabin, noting the comforting familiarity of their private space. The pl
yMartins had sent a message about a special trip we were taking together to Jeju Island. I couldn’t wait to escape, even if just for a little while. As I approached the front door, I could already feel the excitement bubbling up inside me.Martins greeted me with a warm hug as soon as I walked in. His eyes sparkled with genuine happiness, something I hadn’t seen in a long time. “You made it! I was starting to think you might change your mind.”“Never,” I said, smiling up at him. “I wouldn’t miss this for the world.”We shared a soft kiss, and it was like the world outside ceased to exist. All the trials and tribulations seemed to vanish for that moment, and it was just the two of us. Martins took my hand and led me to the living room where soft music played in the background. He had set up a cozy space for us to unwind. There was a bottle of wine chilling in a bucket, and he poured us each a glass as we settled into a slow dance.The music was soft, almost ethereal, and as we swayed
The gala party incident had become the talk of the town. Social media buzzed with clips of the shocking revelations and the dramatic arrests of Luke, Claire, and Nelly. News outlets dissected every detail, and the public eagerly awaited the legal proceedings. Carina's bravery in exposing her tormentors was widely praised, but now, the focus shifted to the consequences for those who had wronged her.Claire was the first to be investigated. She sat in the interrogation room, her face a mask of defiance. Despite the overwhelming evidence against her, she maintained her silence."Mrs. Grant, we have substantial evidence against you," the lead detective said, his tone firm but not unkind. "Your best option is to cooperate."Claire’s lawyer, a sharp-eyed man in a tailored suit, leaned forward. "Claire, listen to me. The evidence is irrefutable. If you plead guilty and cooperate, we might be able to negotiate a lighter sentence."Claire’s eyes flashed with anger and fear. She looked at her l
I woke up on the morning of the gala with a mix of excitement and nervous anticipation. Today was the day we would finally expose Luke, Nelly, and Claire for their crimes. But first, I had to make sure Leah was safe. Mandy and I drove to her niece’s house, where Leah would stay for the night. Mandy’s niece was a sweet, responsible young woman who adored Leah, and I felt confident she was in good hands. “Thank you so much for taking care of her,” I said to Mandy’s niece as I hugged Leah goodbye. “Of course, Carina. She’ll be safe with me,” she assured me with a warm smile. Leaving Leah behind, I drove to the event hall where the gala would be held. The place was a hive of activity, with people bustling around, setting up decorations, arranging seating, and checking sound equipment. Everything had to be perfect for tonight. I walked around, ensuring that all the preparations were on track. Satisfied with the progress, I headed back home where my fashion designer was waiting for me.
I sat in Madam Katie’s cozy living room, the weight of anticipation heavy in the air. Mandy, Martins, and Madam Katie were with me, all of us gathered to watch the video that Miguel had sent. The room was dimly lit, the only light coming from the screen in front of us. My heart pounded in my chest as I pressed play, and the recording started.Miguel's face appeared on the screen, his eyes filled with a mix of regret and determination. He began to speak, detailing his involvement in Luke’s dirty dealings, Nelly’s scheming, and Claire’s cold-blooded actions. As the video played, the room grew eerily silent, each of us hanging on every word.When the video ended, I looked around at the others. Mandy’s face was pale, her eyes wide with shock. Martins sat with his head in his hands, and Madam Katie had a look of grim determination.Martins was the first to break the silence. “I can’t believe it. My own sister... she killed her husband.” He looked up, his eyes meeting mine. “She acted so de
Carlos felt a strange mix of satisfaction as he walked into the headquarters of the Mexico police. After days of meticulous planning and gathering evidence, he was finally ready to bring Miguel down. The evidence he had collected was damning, enough to put Miguel away for life and bring justice for all his victims. Carlos handed over a thick file to the lead investigator, a stern-faced woman named Inspector Rodriguez."We've been looking for Miguel for a long time," Inspector Rodriguez said, flipping through the documents. "This is exactly what we needed."Carlos nodded. "I'm ready to play my part. I have been undercover as Miguel's right-hand man for some time now. I can lead him right into your trap."Inspector Rodriguez looked at Carlos with a mix of admiration and concern. "You know the risks, Carlos. If Miguel suspects anything, you're a dead man."Carlos's jaw tightened. "I know. But this is the only way to bring him down."The next day, Carlos slipped back into his undercover
