She fidgeted with her fingers as she waited for him to come back from the kitchen with their drinks. "Here you go," Tiger said, handing her a glass of wine before sitting down next to her. Helen took a sip and tried to calm her nerves. She had been rehearsing what she was going to say to Mark for weeks, and now that the moment had arrived, she felt tongue-tied. "Is everything okay?" Tiger asked, noticing her discomfort. She took a deep breath and decided to dive in. "Tiger, I need to talk to you about something. Something that's been on my mind for a while now." Tiger leaned forward, giving her his full attention. "Okay, go ahead." She took another sip of wine, gathering her thoughts. "Tiger, I love you. I have for a long time now.

She tried to shake off the feeling of jealousy that was creeping up inside her, but it was hard.She had always known that her ex-husband had a lot of female friends, but this one was different.

Christiana nursed her whiskey, feeling its warmth spread through her body as she replayed the events of the night in her mind. She knew she had overstepped a line, and pushed things too far, and the burden of her actions was weighing heavy on her conscience. Her eyes drifted to the corner of the room, where Joseph sat nursing his own drink. Joseph, a casual acquaintance at best, had become an unwitting pawn in her reckless game. She had invited him out tonight, knowing that Tiger would be at the same pub. Christiana had hoped that by cosying up to Joseph, she could ignite a spark of jealousy in her ex-hu

"Let's talk."Christiana followed him into the living room, taking a seat on the couch. Tom sat down beside her; his eyes fixed on hers. "Why did you do it, Christiana?" he asked, his voice gentle.Tea

"I want to be with you, to love you and cherish you, for as long as we both shall live."Christiana's eyes widened in surprise. She had never expected Simon to confess his love to her, especially not after their past history. But as she looked into his eyes, she saw something different, something genuine."Simon, I don't know what to say," she said, her voice trembling. "Our history is complicated, and I don't want to hurt Tiger."Simon squeezed her hand. "I understand that, Christiana, but we can't keep living in the past.
