Andrew stood in the middle of his apartment, the silence ringing in his ears. He glanced around the living room, his brow furrowing with confusion. Where was Isabella? She had promised she would stay with him, that they would get through this together. But now, the apartment felt hollow, like a shell of its former self.

“Isabella?” he called out, his voice echoing off the walls. “Are you here?”

He hurried through the rooms, checking the kitchen, the bedroom, even the bathroom. But there was no sign of her. A sinking feeling began to settle in his stomach as he pulled out his phone. He scrolled through his contacts, finding her name, and pressed call.

The phone rang and rang, but it went straight to voicemail. He tried again, then again. After several attempts, he let out a frustrated sigh, running a hand through his hair.

“Where the hell are you?” he muttered to himself, pacing the room. His mind raced with possibilities.

    The atmosphere in the police station buzzed with urgency as David, Isabella, Alonzo, Liam, and Sebastian’s friends Alex and Lennon gathered in a conference room. David stood at the front, his heart racing with anticipation. Today would be the day they revealed the truth about Sebastian. “Alright, everyone,” David began, looking at the group with determination. “We need to head to the hospital where my father in law is being taken care of. He is alive. I saved him. I’ve hidden him away until we could figure out who was behind the attacks. Now that Andrew is arrested, it’s time to reveal everything.” Everyone was shocked at the revelation. Isabella felt a mix of emotions swirl inside her. She was grateful that Andrew was behind bars, but she also felt a wave of anxiety wash over her. “Do you think he’ll try to escape or something? He’s cunning.” “I doubt he’ll get a chance,” Alonzo replied, confidence in his tone. “But we need to be vigilant. Let’s make sure Dad is safe.” D

    The sun dipped low in the sky as the group made their way back to the family home The familiar facade brought back memories for Isabella, but it was also laced with a sense of anticipation. Her father, Sebastian, was alive, a thought that had once seemed impossible. As they arrived at the house, David turned to Isabella and Alonzo. “Are you both ready for this?” he asked, concern etched on his face. “Yes,” Isabella said, her heart racing. “She need to see him.” With that, they stepped through the grand entrance. The scent of home cooking wafted through the air, and Isabella felt a flood of memories wash over her. The familiar decor—family photos lining the walls, the scent of lavender candles that her mother loved—brought warmth to her heart. “Let’s go find Mom,” Alonzo suggested, his voice filled with excitement. “Good idea,” David replied, leading the way. As they moved through the house, the anticipation built with each step. “Should we call her?” Isabella hesitated

    The drive back to their villa was quiet, but not the uncomfortable kind of silence that had once hung between them. This time, it was a calm, peaceful quiet, filled with the hum of the engine and the occasional soft sighs from Isabella. David's hand rested on the wheel, but every few moments, his eyes flickered over to her, taking in her soft profile, the way her hair caught the dim light as the sun set behind them.Isabella leaned back in her seat, her fingers playing absentmindedly with the hem of her dress. Her mind was full, swirling with the events of the past few days, but amidst all of it, one thing stood out clearly, David had never betrayed her. She had been wrong to doubt him. The weight of her guilt pressed on her chest, but underneath that, there was a warmth, a feeling she had long ignored. LoveAs they pulled up to the villa, David turned off the car but didn’t make any move to get out just yet. He turned to Isabella, his voice soft. “Isabella… I’m so glad this nightmar

But tonight was about celebrating, not dwelling on the darkness of the past. “Are you okay?” David asked, his voice soft and filled with concern. She turned to him, offering a smile. “I am. It’s just… overwhelming, you know? Seeing everyone so happy after everything we’ve been through.” David squeezed her ha

    The night of the celebration had started to wind down. The guests had thinned, leaving only close family and friends lingering in small groups around the garden and living room. The soft glow of the lanterns illuminated the space, casting a gentle warmth over the otherwise quiet evening. Alonzo stood by one of the outdoor balconies, gazing out at the horizon, lost in thought.From behind, he heard a familiar laugh, a sound that had been embedded in his heart since childhood. Abigail.He turned, watching her from a distance as she chatted with some family members. The way her eyes sparkled when she smiled, the way she moved with grace, and the warmth of her presence, all of it tugged at something deep inside him.

Bella and Sebastian had taken on the roles of doting grandparents, their hearts swelling with pride and joy. Bella cooed softly at Gabriel , who was seated in his bright blue playpen filled with colorful toys. “Oh, look at him! Just look at those cheeks!” Bella exclaimed, her voice high with excitement. She leaned down, her hands resting on the edge of the playpen. “You are going to be spoiled rotten, my little prince!” Sebastian chuckled beside her, a warm smile on his face. “And it’s entirely our fault. Can you believe he’s already six months old? It feels like just yesterday when he was born.” “Time really flies,” Bella agreed, her eyes sparkling with nostalgia. “And he’s already got us wrapped around his little finger. Look at the way he’s holding that toy. He’s going to be quite the little charmer.” As if on cue, Gabriel glanced up at his grandmother, his bright blue eyes gleaming. He gr

    Isabella stood on the terrace of their villa, gazing out at the ocean. The rhythmic sound of the waves crashing against the shore had always calmed her, but tonight, she felt a twinge of anticipation. David had been secretive all day, dropping hints about a surprise, yet offering no real clues. He had asked her to dress up, telling her only to meet him outside at sunset. The air was warm, with just the slightest breeze tousling her hair. She smoothed down the flowing red dress she had chosen, wondering what David had in store. As she stepped down from the terrace toward the garden, soft music began to play in the distance, the melody familiar and comforting. Following the sound, Isabella rounded the corner of the garden, and what she saw took her breath away. There, in the center of the garden, was a beautifully set table, draped in white linen with glowing candles and a bouquet of her favorite flowers—white lilies and lavender. Tiny twinkling fairy lights hung from the trees above

"You’re going to be fine."Alonzo let out a small, nervous laugh, running a hand through his hair. "I know, I know. It’s just… It’s all hitting me now. I’m about to marry Abigai
