"Actually... I’m in..." Martha started to say, but her words were cut off by the screech of tires as a car suddenly pulled up beside hers.

"Martha, where are you?" Layla’s voice was filled with concern on the other end of the line.

The window of the car beside Martha rolled down with eerie slowness. In a split second, a gun emerged, the cold steel glinting in the late evening moon.

"Martha, are you there? What’s going on?"

The sharp crack of gunfire shattered the air. The bullet tore through the window of Martha’s car, the glass splintering in a thousand directions before the round slammed into her skull. The phone slipped from her hand as she slumped over the passenger seat, her life extinguished in an instant.

"Martha? Martha!" Layla’s voice rang with panic, but there was no answer. Only silence, punctuated by the distant sound of city life and the faint hum of the line.

The two men in the car moved with chilling efficiency. They jumped out, yanked open the door of Martha’s ca

    ★★★★★ Layla’s sobs grew quieter, but the anguish in her eyes was unmistakable. “I just can’t take it anymore, Mom,” she said, her voice cracking under the weight of everything she’d endured. “It’s like every time we turn around, there’s another lie, another betrayal. How are we supposed to keep going when everyone we trusted is turning against us?” Kesha’s eyes flashed with a fierce resolve, her jaw setting with determination. “We keep going because we have no choice,” she replied, her voice low but powerful. “If Paul is willing to stoop this low, then we’ll go lower. We’ll fight back with everything we’ve got. I never thought he would betray us like this, but if this is the game he wants to play, then so be it. We’ll make sure he regrets ever crossing us.” "What are we going to do?" Layla asked. “First, we need to find him,” Kesha said, her voice tight with determination. “And then we’ll find out who this woman is that he’s married. It’s strange, isn’t it? How come his family hasn

    ★★★★★Later in the afternoon, Jasmine got out of her room, a little careful. It was the time when the caretaker left for home. She went to the kitchen and packed all the food into plastic as she was going to throw it. Jasmine hurried to her room, her mind racing. She needed to get to that party—something about the woman’s words in the café had lodged itself deep in her gut, a feeling she couldn’t shake. There was more going on than Paul was letting on, and she wasn’t about to sit around waiting for answers.But as she flung open her closet, frustration hit her like a wave. No cocktail dresses, nothing remotely fancy—just her usual casual clothes. She bit her lip, scanning her options. Then it hit her: she didn’t need to stand out. In fact, it was better if she didn’t.Grabbing a pair of jeans and a plain top, she reached for the mask she’d tucked away, the one that would keep her identity hidden. Fancy dress or not, she’d blend into the shadows and see what Paul was up to. Her finger

    ★★★★★ The woman dressed Jasmine with an expert's touch, the gown slipping onto her like it had been tailored just for her. As she gathered Jasmine's hair into an elegant bun and secured it with sparkling clips, she smiled warmly. “You look stunning. All that’s missing is a smile.” Jasmine hesitated, looking at herself in the mirror. “What if I... tear the dress by accident or something happens? Do I have to pay for it?” The woman chuckled softly, her amusement clear. “No, dear. You don’t need to pay a thing. In fact, you can keep the dress if you want. It suits you perfectly.” Standing up, Jasmine gave a small, appreciative smile. “Thank you.” Before Jasmine could grab her mask, the woman handed her another one—a sleek, elegant piece that complemented the dress perfectly. “Here. This one will match better.” Jasmine took it, slipping the mask over her face. It covered everything from her eyes to her nose, leaving her lips bare. Exhaling deeply, she made her way toward the main p

    ★★★★★"You are not Madeline, and Paul is not your husband. You did not get married to anyone," Damon said, leaving Jasmine stunned. Her mind clouded instantly, and she replied, "You’re lying. You’re an unknown person. Tell me what your motive is!" Jasmine became alarmed toward Damon."Here, take this phone. You can call 911!" Damon said. "I know you’ve lost your memory, which is why you’re unable to recall anything or understand why I know so much about you. Sit in the car, and I’ll tell you everything," Damon assured Jasmine, opening the door for her.Jasmine grabbed Damon’s phone from his hand and held it close before getting into the car, eager to learn about herself."Don't think I’m a weak woman?" Jasmine warned Damon as soon as he started the car."I don’t dare!" Damon replied with a relaxed smile."Now speak. Who are you, and how do you know me?" Jasmine asked suspiciously."Wait, there’s a call about to come. Pick it up!" Damon said, and instantly a call came through on the ph

    ★★★★"I’m not going anywhere," Jasmine whispered, a deep heartache gripping her as she held the kids close. At that moment, she felt at home, with no reason to believe this was all a lie.She gently rubbed the backs of both children before standing up and looking down at their faces. It dawned on her that, indeed, both of them resembled Damon more than herself."Jasmine!" Nadia called out as she rushed toward her, embracing her tightly, tears slipping from her eyes. She had spent days praying, and it wasn't until this morning that Damon told her he would be bringing Jasmine home tonight.Jasmine returned the hug, though she couldn't quite place Nadia in her memory."Don’t worry, you’ll remember us soon! I always told you Paul wasn’t a good guy, and this time he’s gone beyond imagination," Nadia said angrily."You know him too?" Jasmine asked."Yes, we were all in college together. Then one day, you kicked him out of your life. You hated him," Nadia answered."We’re so happy... so happ

    ★★★★ As soon as the morning arrived, Paul returned to the house after spending the night at the hotel with that unknown woman. He had no idea how he ended up in that room with her since the last thing he remembered was sitting at the counter having drinks. Suddenly, a certain smell hit his nose, and everything after that was a blur. "Madeline!" Paul shouted frantically when he saw the front door open and didn’t see Jasmine in the house. "Sir," the caretaker rushed out of Jasmine’s room and said, "I think madam has run away through the window. There are clothes on the bed, and the window is open." Hearing that, Paul rushed to the room and saw the clothes she had worn the previous day, with the window wide open. His blood boiled as he stormed out, slamming his fist on the small wooden table. He shouted at the caretaker, "Where were you? I told you not to leave the house until she was asleep!" "Sir... Sir, I was sure she wouldn't wake up," the caretaker replied, her voice trembl

    ★★★★★"Call an ambulance!" Kesha shouted as her daughter fell to the ground, unconscious.Meanwhile, Damon crouched beside Jasmine, grabbing her head and seeing the blood. He quickly placed his handkerchief on the wound. "Why didn’t you use the knife I gave you? I told you I would take care of everything!""I'm fine, Damon. It just feels like my head is spinning," Jasmine said, placing her hand on Damon’s chest."I'm taking you to the hospital," Damon insisted, helping her stand up. But before he could, Paul attacked Damon from behind, kicking him away from Jasmine."You're mine. You will come with me. Just a couple of days, and you'll forget everything. I can't let him ruin this opportunity," Paul said, leaning forward to grab Jasmine, thinking of running away with her. But Damon swiftly put his gun back in his waistband, grabbed Paul by the collar, and slammed his head against the shelf."Do you want to know why I didn’t take your life? Because Jasmine is fine. However, I’m plannin

    ★★★★★ After what felt like an eternity, Jasmine slowly unfurled her eyes, the soft hum of hospital machines filling the room. The sterile white ceiling above her was unfamiliar, and for a fleeting moment, panic surged through her—hadn't they been on the ship? Her heart raced as she pushed herself upright, her hands trembling against the sheets. Before she could process her surroundings, a nurse hurried to her side. "Please, don’t move so quickly! You need to take it easy," the nurse said gently, her tone both firm and reassuring. Jasmine blinked, still groggy, her voice barely above a whisper as she asked, "Where’s my family?" Her words carried the weight of her desperation, her mind racing to find Damon’s face, to know that he was safe. The nurse offered a soft smile, the kind that made Jasmine feel like she was in safe hands. "I’ll get them for you," she said kindly, already turning toward the door. "They’ve been waiting since early this morning." As the nurse left, Jasmine allo

    ★★★★ "Ellie!" Gary tried to approach Harley's mother, but he stopped him, saying, "Don't come close to mom. I didn't lay my hands on you just because of her even though I was on the verge of ripping your neck off your body. So, Again count yourself lucky!" Harley growled at his father. Just then, one of Harley’s men interrupted. "Boss, this woman is fainting!" Harley’s gaze shifted briefly to Amanda before he gave his orders in a cold, merciless tone. "Take her to the hospital. Make sure she doesn’t die, and ensure she gets proper treatment at our camp." Amanda tried to protest, but her words failed her as she collapsed. Without hesitation, Harley’s men carried her away, leaving the scene in tense silence. By that time, Harley's mom mustered up some strength and looked at her husband with pain and tears. Earlier, when Amanda said those things about Gary, she denied them without a second thought, even though somewhere in her heart, a bad feeling was swirling. But, in the end, she wa

    ★★★★"Are you hurt?" Harley asked, concern lacing his voice."Yeah, my foot," Nadia winced, her grip tightening around his neck. "I think something’s stuck in it."Without hesitation, Harley scooped her up in his arms, cradling her gently as he made his way inside, his jaw set with determination."It's Amanda, and she has more people inside," Nadia cautioned him so that he could have his gun ready."Humph!" Harley hummed only, then took her to a place where there was little light and a small place to sit. He carefully laid her down, turned on the phone's flashlight, and said, "Hold it up on your feet and let me see what it is?"Nadia's face was tired and sweaty, but her eyes were calm seeing Harley in front of her eyes. She got the phone and held it up, only then did they both notice a nail embedded in her left foot.As soon as Harley touched the nail, Nadia cried out, clutching his hair in her palm as her agonizing voice erupted, "Oh, it’s hurt!"Harley looked up at Nadia’s painful f

    ★★★★★ "I don't know how...." Harley's mother's hands were shaking as she held the gun in her hand. "There's no time for a lesson! Just put the muzzle on my handcuffs and shoot!" Nadia shouted, her impatience growing as Amanda's people could show up at any second. "Alright," Harley's mother muttered, exhaling sharply. She pressed the muzzle against the lock and fired without hesitation. The handcuffs snapped open instantly. Nadia forthwith ran to Amanda and pulled her back by her hair before Amanda could able to run out of the room. "Let me go, bitch!" Amanda protested, trying to scream. But Nadia held her back with her arm around her neck. Suddenly Amanda's men arrived with guns drawn. Seeing them, Amanda screamed, "Don't just stand there and help me!" She gritted her teeth and spat at the people who should have been running to her aid. "Don't come close to her if you want her alive and well?" Nadia yelled, holding Amanda tightly as she tried to strike a deal for them to escape.

    ★★★★★Meanwhile, Harley returned home and learned from the servant that his father had been awake for a while but had ordered no visitors until he permitted it. Ignoring the warning, Harley marched straight to his father’s room. Rather than knock, he pounded on the door.His father’s irritated voice boomed from within. "I warned you—I don’t want any interference! If you all want to keep your jobs, stay out of my business!"At that moment, Harley responded by firing on the door lock and then kicking it open. Gary ran to the corner in fear, his back hitting the wall. When Gary saw that it was Harley who had shot at the door, he blurted out, "What's going on in your head? You could have called me!" "Where are they?" Harley yelled with murderous eyes."Who are you talking about?" Gary replied, trying to sound calm, but miserably failed under his son's intense gaze. Harley clenched his teeth and rushed to his father, who tried to escape, but Harley grabbed him by his throat and howled, "

    ★★★★★ Jasmine was exhausted, thirsty and going through the ripping pain in her shoulder, but she made sure she reached out for her husband, who was looking for her crazily. "Hello... it's me!" Jasmine said in a tired voice and crawled away from the dead man. Since it was almost dark, she took refuge behind a tree and decided to stay there until Damon came. "Where are you?" Damon's harsh voice broke out, full of impatience and tension. "Come and get me. I am tired and I...I killed a man who wanted to kill me," Jasmine said, "Also a group of people took Nadia with them. She is in danger too. Bring men," Jasmine said, closing her eyes. "Hang in there!" Damon said. There was a sense of reassurance in his voice that calmed Jasmine and she replied, "Okay!" And she touched her shoulder where she felt pain. Meanwhile, Harley reached the mansion where Amanda's father was busy in the swimming pool with some young lady. As soon as they entered, they all started screaming in fear becau

    ★★★★★"I don’t know anything!" Harley’s mother stammered, her voice trembling as she scrambled towards Nadia, who sat handcuffed in the corner. "In my sleep, I felt someone’s hand on my face, and I jolted awake. I tried to fight, and Harley’s father did the same, but they injured him before dragging me out of the villa. It was dark outside.""I think it’s the same people who brought you here. They pretended to be the police and tricked me," Nadia said calmly as she looked at Harley's worried mother."How is his father?"Nadia felt bad hearing Harley's mother's worried voice."When I left the villa, a doctor monitored him and the doctor said he is fine and has no injuries," Nadia said."You are not lying to me, are you?" Harley's mother asked again just to believe Nadia was not saying the positive just to keep her calm."Why would I lie to you to keep you satisfied when both of our lives are at stake? I was thinking about your son. I'm afraid he won't deal with this situation patiently

  • Hidden Twins of a Billionaire Daddy   Jasmine came in the picture

    ★★★★Nadia didn't go to her house. Instead, she went to Jasmine's house. All the way she kept wondering if Amanda was really that stupid. Knowing Harley's nature, how could she dare to attack his mother, and why did she think that kidnapping Harley's mother would make it easier for her to get back into his life?When she was about to enter Jasmine's house, a police car blocked her way, which shocked Nadia, and she quickly got out of the car in confusion and asked, "What happened, Sir?!" At the same time, Jasmine saw Nadia and the police from the balcony, where she was walking with a coffee mug in her hand. So, she decided to go and see what the matter was."Are you Nadia Hazelwood?" a policeman asked.Nadia replied, a little nervously, "Yes, sir, I am Nadia Hazelwood. Is something wrong?""We found illegal substances in your house. You have to come with us to the police station," the cop said, showing off the handcuff to Nadia who could no longer stop herself from panicking as she mut

    ★★★★ As the morning dawned Nadia found herself pinned down by a strong arm around her waist and unable to breathe. But what scared her the most was the thought that Harley was naked. She moved quickly and looked under the sheets, but he wasn't naked; he was wearing his boxers, and she sighed with relief. Then she tried to push his hand out of her to get up, but he grumbled, "Let me hold you a little longer." "I have a lot of work to do; hugging won't buy me time," Nadia grumbled. "You work in my office, and as your boss, I am ordering you to remain on the bed with me; if you're so free, you can show me your care by kissing me," Harley said. "Stop your nonsense, Harley. Your mother will come anytime and I will feel ashamed," Nadia put her hand on his face and tried to push him away, but she couldn't. Though his sleeping face looked innocent and peaceful, which urged her to stare at him for a long time, she refused to do that since she was embarrassed to show her affection. Suddenl

    ★★★★★"Uh..huh! What did you hear him talking about?" Harley replied calmly."He was talking to someone in the garden who I couldn't see so I was standing near the wall and listening to their conversation, then I heard your father say that if that person can't achieve what he has been given to do then he should kill himself or your father will kill him," Nadia said with shock and fear in her eyes as she thought that Harley’s father was going to harm someone."Hmmmm... Dad is consumed by the greed to get the power. That is why he abruptly came here with Mom," Harley said, making his way to the bed, his hand unbuttoning his shirt, while he added, "Let him do what he wants. I'm glad you found something entertaining in this house!""How come you are so relaxed even after knowing all this? What if he is plotting something dangerous against you because I felt he has no sympathy for you or no care that you are his son," Nadia said impatiently putting both her hands on her waist as she did no
