Sabrina's POV

Today is the day I've been waiting for. The doctor finally allowed me to go home after undergoing chemotherapy and treatment for the past few days. Although my body is still weak, I feel relieved to be able to return home. It feels like being given a little freedom after being locked up for so long.

Nicholas was busy taking care of the paperwork for my return outside the room. The sound of his footsteps approaching made me turn towards the door. He entered with a small smile that I had rarely seen lately, carrying a plastic bag filled with medicines and documents.

The warmth of his smile gave me encouragement. In my heart, I was grateful for his support so far. As he placed the bag on the table, I felt new hope. Today was the beginning of my recovery journey, and although there were challenges ahead, I was ready to face them.

"Everything is ready. We can go home right away," he said, his tone soft but firm.

I smiled slightly

    Sabrina’s POV “Andrian wants to destroy Nicholas,” she said quietly. “He doesn’t care who he has to crush. Including me. He just wants revenge.”Nicholas’s words from earlier echoed in my head. “It seems there’s something Hazel herself doesn’t know.”I looked at Hazel silently. There was no anger in my chest. Only weariness, pity, and fear for what might happen if this all continued.“Will you speak in court?” I asked.Hazel nodded. “Yes. And I… I’ll tell the truth. Even if it means I lose everything.”I set my cup down. “I hope those aren’t just words, Hazel.”“They’re not. I can’t pretend anymore.”Hazel bowed her head, her eyes fixed on her hands clenched tightly in her lap. For a moment, she looked like someone who had given up. But I could sense something different—she was gathering courage, little by little, from the rubble of her despair.“I’m not perfect,” she said softly. “And maybe I’ll alway

    Sabrina’s POV That sentence kept echoing in my mind, like a distant whisper slowly unraveling my calm. I tried focusing on the ticking clock on the wall, the scent of jasmine tea in the air, the faint gurgle from the dispenser that had just shut off. But none of it could drown out the thoughts converging to one single point—Hazel.I didn’t want to think about her more than I had to. Didn’t want to reopen old wounds or reignite buried anger. But Nicholas’s words from earlier… couldn’t just be ignored.I knew who Andrian was. Everyone did. He wasn’t the type of man who gave without expecting something in return. If he was in Hazel’s life, it wasn’t out of kindness—it was strategy. And if Hazel really didn’t realize she was being used, then maybe her actions weren’t only driven by guilt or ambition. Maybe she was fighting her own battles in a game far more complex than it appeared.I stared into my cup, watching the lamp’s reflection shimmer on the cooli

    Sabrina's POV The midday air was still warm as I picked Charlie up from school. His bright smile, the quick little run toward me, and the hug that wrapped around my waist felt like a balm for the quiet unease I had been carrying. Today, Charlie was so happy. And seeing him that way gave me the strength to try harder, even though my heart was still filled with questions.In the car, he didn’t stop talking. About a drawing competition, about his funny friend, about how his teacher wore shoes that “didn’t match her clothes,” he said. I laughed quietly, responding to each story while keeping my eyes on the road. But my mind wasn’t fully there.The past few days had been filled with uncertainty. Hazel’s return—her sudden appearance—and all the emotions that surged back like old wounds ripped open again. I tried to remain neutral, to be the adult, objective and calm—but who can truly be neutral when the past shows up at your door, knocking while carrying the na

    Hazel’s POV From the top.That could only mean one person.Andrian.Without saying another word, I turned and strode quickly toward the elevator. My steps led me to the highest floor of the building—Andrian’s office.I pushed the door open without knocking and found him sitting casually behind his massive desk, as always, with a cup of coffee in one hand and a document in the other.He looked up, unsurprised by my presence.“Oh, Hazel. I thought you’d come sooner than this.”“What is the meaning of all this?” I snapped, my voice full of rage. “You fired me?”“Fired?” He smiled. “Such a harsh word. I simply ended our professional contract. Besides, isn’t it obvious? You betrayed me.”“Because I don’t want to be your pawn anymore? Because I want to save my son?” My voice rose. “You have no right to punish me just because I decided to stop playing your dirty game!”Andrian leaned ba

    Hazel’s POV “I asked for help to get back to my son,” I hissed. “Not to destroy his father. I wanted my rights, not a war.”He chuckled low, dismissive. “Unfortunately, in this world, nothing is gained without giving something up. If you want Charlie, then Nicholas has to lose something too. Balance, Hazel. It’s the most basic principle of power.”“You know nothing about being a parent,” I said coldly. “Charlie is not a trophy. He’s not leverage.”Andrian’s face tensed for a moment, but he quickly masked it. “So what now? Are you going to crawl back into Nicholas’ arms after everything? You think he’ll take you back as if you never walked out on that child? Or... maybe you’re just afraid of being alone again?” I wanted to get angry. To flip the table and scream in his face. But my body didn’t move. My tongue was frozen. All I could do was look at him—the man I thought had saved me—when in reality, he had slowly dragged me into

    Hazel’s POV “You didn’t need to,” he snapped. “Just by opening up all your wounds to me. Just by showing how fragile you were without Nicholas. That was enough to tell me you’d depend on me.”His words were poison. Slow but sure, they corroded everything I had once believed. I looked at him sharply, trying to find even the faintest trace of regret on his face. There was none. All I saw was a manipulative man who thrived on others’ pain.“I’m not dependent on you,” I said coldly at last. “I just misjudged who you really are.”Andrian gave a mocking smile. “And now you think you can just walk away?”“I will walk away,” I said firmly. “And there’s nothing you can do to stop me.”He shook his head slowly, that same twisted smile still lingering. “I don’t have to stop you. The world will do that for me. Do you think Sabrina and Nicholas will play fair? They have everything—money, influence, legal power. And you? You only have pain and foo
