“No, father!" Darien stood up on his feet.” I don't think Jeri would sit and come up with such a lie. I believe that what she's saying is true, but there might be some mistakes somewhere. So, we need to give her the chance to prove herself, please."

“Do you know my issue with you Darien? My issue with you is that you are blinded by her stupid fake love, causing you to keep defending her even if she's wrong. Is this what we call love is blind?" Mrs. Lucinda grimaced at her son.

“Ma’am, if true be told, your son and I no longer communicate, let alone mingling with each other. I'm not here to accuse Aysel because I feel she snatched the man who was supposed to be mine, but I'm here to tell you the truth. What if I reveal to you that Clara, your best friend, is working effortlessly to snatch your husband away from you?” Jeri responded, showing no sign of fear in her.

    Darien stood speechless, his hands in his pocket as the both of them locked eyes like wrestlers at the verge of fighting.“Is silence your response? Why are you finding it challenging to respond, huh?” Jeri asked, drawing her brows together.“It's obvious that you're up to something, Jeri. But believe me, I have no idea what you're talking about, and I have nothing to do with what you're saying,” his guilty conscience couldn't permit him to stand still."Oh really? Well, we would see to that, Darien.”That was all Jeri said, turned around and left Darien standing there, his hands still in his pockets.Darien remained in one place, his gaze fixed on Jeri's back until she was out of sight. Immediately she took a corner and disappeared, Darien sighed deeply, his mind racing. “Freya!" Darien muttered through gritted teeth and tightened his hand into a fist.” You're slowly getting on my bad side, but I promise you will regret ever kn

    “What do you mean?" Jeri was lost. “These papers you just signed are our agreement papers that you agreed to be my wife. Not only that, I will also pay for anything the Saga company demanded for the loss you caused them." Francis announced, causing Jeri to jump to her feet.“What rubbish are you talking about!" She raged, clenching her fist.” How could you do such a thing to me, claiming that you want to help me?”"Well, the papers have been signed, and there is nothing you can do about it. Moreover, you willingly signed them without being forced. And you know what, we recorded a video as evidence that you weren't forced to sign them. So, you better accept me as your husband and stop ranting.”Jeri shut her eyes, shaking her head, trying not to do anything stupid that would lead to regret. She wished she could snatch one of the guards’ guns and pierced a bullet through Francis's head, even though she doesn't know how to handle a gun.

    Jeri arrived home, tears streaming down her cheeks. She banged on the door several times until Sophia opened it.Immediately the door was opened, Jeri pushed Sophia aside and dashed into the house. She threw her purse to the ground and collapsed on the couch, palms clasped against her face.“What happened, Jeri? I was expecting good news, not this," Sophia said as she sat beside Jeri, her hands around her shoulder, attempting to pull her into her embrace.Jeri did not respond, instead continuing to wail. Sophia was convinced that something bad had happened rather than what they anticipated. What exactly is it, though? That was what she couldn't tell."Do you check to see if someone is after her?" A familiar voice rang in Jeri's ears, prompting her to quickly remove her palms from her face and scan the room to ensure that her ears were not playing tricks on her.Jeri flinched in fear when she saw the lady sitting opposite her, but she was also overcome with anger, causing her hand to t

    “What?" Jeri was astounded by what she heard."I obviously heard their phone conversation. She persuaded Adrian to compel you to pay for the damage you caused his company. She claimed she had spoken with a young man who would approach you and offer to help you settle the money if you agreed to marry him. "She was convinced that you would not turn down the offer because you could not afford it yourself, nor would you be able to work for a year without being paid. So, I have been wondering why the woman wants to destroy your life. If Sophia had not informed me that you had found the person responsible for the allegations made against you, I would have assumed that the woman was to blame for everything.” "This is strange,” Jeri muttered."Does that mean the young man she is referring to was the one who enticed me into signing a contract to become his wife?""What are you talking about, Jeri?” Sophia jumped into the conversation, expecting more explanation.Jeri went ahead and narrated h

    It was dawn and Francis with his guards made their way to Sophia's house to take his wife home.Just when they arrived at the house, Henry came out of the house, ready to leave for work. As soon as the cars came to a halt before him, Henry froze in place, anticipating who the people were.Well, he was told since the day Jeri came to their house that she had a husband. Perhaps it was him who had come to take his wife home.Francis's guards opened the car for him, and he stepped out, his face flushed with joy.“Who are you and how may I help you?" Henry quickly inquired, anticipating their response."Where is my wife?” Francis asked his expression seriously.Since Henry assumed that the young man standing in front of him was indeed Jeri's husband, he proceeded and responded. “ She's inside. Should I inform her of your presence?" “Of course," Francis nodded, causing Henry to quickly turn around and go into the house.A few minutes later, Jeri arrived with her child clutched against her

    “What are you talking about, Jeri?" Sophia, who sat on the edge of the bed, staring at Jeri who sat on a wooden polished chair before her dressing mirror.“Read this," Jeri handed her phone over to Sophia, and she took it.” That's a message from a stranger, telling me that my mom is dead, and she was murdered by Darien.”"What!” Sophia mouthed as she read the message that was sent to Jeri a few minutes ago." How possible is this? And where is the evidence that Darien did such a thing?”"I'm confused as well, but I feel the person is saying the truth even without evidence.” Jeri chuckled, her arms resting on her thighs. "What exactly are you talking about? Don't be stupid to believe such rumors, Jeri. I don't know Darien that much, but I'm certain that he can't do such a thing. Come on, can't you see that the person was only trying to cause more trouble between you and Darien?" Sophia furrowed her brows.“You don't get it, Sophia. I

    After leaving Jeri's residence, Darien went to Freya who was responsible for some unresolved problems on the ground. The two friends could be seen standing before each other, glaring at themselves, clenching their fist at the same time. “You think you're smart, huh?" Darien raged, his brows drawn together, and his gaze lowered to Freya. “You have made my life a never-ending nightmare, and you think I would let you go? Never! Not when I'm still alive, Darien. You claimed Jeri's mother's life, yet you want to have her as your wife? I'm paying the price of your mistakes, Darien, and you can't escape it.” Freya snapped, her anger burned like a wildfire. “I bought this house and one of those cars for you, Freya. As though that weren't enough, I helped you get a job at the Saga company. What did you lack that I didn't provide for you before you became an independent woman, huh?” He raged, inching his face closer to her

    "Well,” Maya said, " if you think that's the best thing to do, then go ahead and do so since the whole thing centered on her.”With newfound determination, Darien left for Jeri's mansion after a long discussion with Maya.Perhaps the truth would change everything. Who knows?Darien arrived at Jeri's mansion a few minutes later, his heart pounding. One of the gatekeepers led Darien to the garden where Jeri was having fun with her son. "Jeri," Darien said, his voice barely above a whisper.Upon hearing her name, Jeri swiftly turned, her eyes narrowing. She was taken aback when her eyes fell on Darien."What is it, Darien?" Jeri asked, her brows furrowed.Darien stood dumbfounded as though he didn't hear her. Unfortunately, his attention was carried away by the little child who was busy playing with a ball.When Jeri noticed that, she became uncomfortable so she decided to ask her child to go into the house and he did.Dawson ran past Darien without greeting him. Probably because he did

    Ever since Darien got the text, he became restless to the point of refusing to eat his dinner.He was eager to meet this unknown person to know who the person is and what the person wants.When it was almost midnight, Darien took with him three guards and exited the mansion without telling his father or grandfather.Within a few minutes of driving in the almost empty road, he arrived at the old warehouse, his heart racing with anticipation and fear. The text had been cryptic, but the threat to Jeri's life was clear.Since he was asked to come alone, he asked his guards to wait for him from a far distance from the old warehouse.As Darien stepped out of the shadows, a figure emerged, causing him to flinch in fear."Who are you?" Darien demanded out of fear.The figure revealed a woman with piercing green eyes and raven-black hair."I'm Maya," she said. "I've been tracking Adrian's operations for months.""Huh?” Darien's eyes narrowed."What do you want?"Instead of responding to his que

    Darien began to pace around in the garden, wondering what to do. It was as if his head were going to explode for trying so hard to figure out what to do next.“I need to act fast. I can't sit back and watch them hurt Jeri. Not now," Darien said to himself with determination.At last, he retreated to the living room after giving it much thought.As he re-entered the mansion, he heard his grandfather speaking."Jeri, dear," Dr. Williams said, his voice soft, "I know my family has wronged you. But Darien has changed. He's trying to make amends. And as his grandfather, I will beg you on his behalf to please forgive him even though he deserves to face the consequences of his actions. He was still a kid that time when it happened and probably his father was afraid to lose his son that was why they kept it hidden. Please have mercy on them, Jeri."As Dr. Williams' words pierced into her ears Jeri's gaze wavered. Her plan was to get Darien and his father arrested, and not to forgive them. Now

"It's time to start healing.""And seeking justice.” Freya chuckled.Just then, Darien approached Jeri, his eyes sincere, as he was eager to seek her forgiveness."Jeri," he began,“ I know I can never undo the harm I've caused. If only you could forgive me, I would be the happiest man on earth presently. Not only that, I would be able to help you as well.""Help me?” Jeri's gaze hardened, her voice icy. “ You're the reason I've suffered. In fact, I'm still suffering because without my mother, I'm just like an orphan.""I know,” said Darien as he took a step closer, his gaze full of regret. “But I'm willing to make amends. Let me help you fight those who've wronged you.""You think you can just waltz in and fix everything?” Jeri scoffed. " My mother's dead because of you."Darien's face contorted in ang

    "Huh?” Jeri gasped, her eyes narrowed as she tried to digest the whole thing."So you were the one who ruined my life from day one?" Jeri's eyes blazed as she spoke to Darien. Jeri glared at Darien as if she should strangle him to death. He killed her mother. As if that weren't enough he ruined her life by impregnating her."Jeri, I…" Darien continued, but Jeri cut him off."Shut up! You have no right to speak," Jeri spat, her voice venomous.The tears she had been suppressing for a long time finally escaped her eyes, and streamed down her cheeks.She came to seek justice for her dead mother and also to expose Mrs. Lucinda's sinister plans and now this. Jeri's world crumbled right before her as she was still finding it challenging to believe Freya's words.Upon seeing how heartbroken Jeri was, Sophia stepped forward, placing a gentle hand on Jeri's shoulder as she attempted to comfort her."Jeri, let's think this through," said Sophia as she gently rubbed Jeri's shoulder with her thu

    Darien's face paled, his eyes filling with a mix of shock and guilt. At last, Freya exposed the secret they have been hiding for decades.Mr. Ethan's eyes widened in astonishment, wondering what Jeri was talking about. He wasn't aware that the woman his son stabbed to death in his office was Jeri's mother.“What…what are you talking about, Jeri?” Mr. Ethan inquired, his gaze shifting from his son to Jeri. "Oh please, don't pretend as if you can't recall how your son murdered my mother in your office many years ago,” she growled in response, her fist tightened.Just after Jeri said that, it dawned on him that the woman was indeed Jeri's mother who had no one to look for her after her death.Mr. Ethan averted his gaze away from Jeri to Darien. He couldn't believe his ears. Never has he for once thought that this thing will come up in the future.

    “What?" Darien gasped, his eyes shifting from the old man to his father. “ What did I just hear you call him, father?" “You heard him well, Darien," Dr. Williams cut in, causing Darien to avert his gaze away from his father to Dr. Williams.“Dr. Williams,” Darien called, still trying to comprehend what was happening. " I have been searching for you. You were nowhere to be found a few months after Jeri had left this city. I thought she came back and took you away demanding that you saved her life. I was astonished when she came to my office asking me about you. Where have you been all this while? And why is my father addressing you like that?”"How many times do you need to be told that Dr. Williams is your grandfather?” Jeri snapped."Zip your mouth, Jeri. I wasn't talking to you,” Darien countered, his brows drawn together.“What Jeri said is nothing but the truth, Darien," Dr. Williams responded, walking past Darien, his hands tucked behind him.“Huh?” Darien gasped.

Their faces were holding no traces of smile, causing Darien and his parents to ask themselves what exactly the ladies were there to seek.Jeri's eyes blazed as she stepped forward. "We know what you're planning, Mrs. Lucinda. And we won't let you get away with it.""I have no idea what you're talking about," Mrs. Lucinda snapped,

    “What's wrong, son?" Mrs. Lucinda asked as she sat beside her son on the couch.Darien, whose face was clouded with anger, hastily stood up, avoiding his mother's touch.“Tell me, is it true?" Darien asked, his arms folded above his chest, and his back against his mother's gaze.Mrs. Lucinda was confused as she couldn't comprehend what her son was talking about.“What exactly are you talking about, son?" Mrs. Lucinda stood up and asked with skepticism.Darien turned around and faced his mother.
