Cassia stood outside Liam’s door, hesitating. She had spent the entire night tossing and turning, thinking about him… about his confession. And now, standing here, she was nervous. Taking a deep breath, she knocked. Seconds later, the door opened, revealing Liam in a loose shirt and sweatpants. Hi
Stacy’s fingers trembled as she reached for the documents, her heart pounding. Just as her fingertips grazed the paper, Mrs. Sinclair smoothly pulled them away before she could pick it up. Stacy blinked, her gaze slowly lifting to Mrs. Sinclair, who wore a small, knowing smile. "I’ll give these t
"You've got to be kidding me," Darvan muttered, his brows furrowing as he glanced at his mother, who was now staring at Martinez. Martinez, seated to the side and barely paying attention to anything happening, was lost in thought. His mind was consumed with worries about Cassia. Her mood hadn’t bee
Stacy. Pregnant. With his child. He had his doubts, but now… it was real. Darvan's grip on the phone tightened. "Are you sure about this, Dr. Watson?" "Yes, sir. We ran multiple tests. The results are accurate. You’re welcome to drop by the hospital and review them yourself," the doctor replied. "
Darvan’s grip on the steering wheel tightened as he drove to Justin’s company. His mind was a mess. No matter how much he tried to process everything, it still felt unreal. Stacy was the last person he would ever trust now. For days, he had convinced himself it was a lie. That she had manipulated t
Cassia looked down at the pavement, her lips pressing into a pout as she spotted her phone lying there, slightly tilted with the screen facing up. "Oh no..." she mumbled, crouching down to pick it up. A sharp gasp escaped her lips as she saw the screen completely shattered. "Shit..." she muttered,
As they slowly pulled away from the hug, Stacy's mind was a mess. She had been prepared for his cold attitude, his usual mean words...but not this. Mrs. Sinclair, who had been silently watching, smiled gently. "She was just about to head home," she said softly, her gaze moving between them. "You
"Didn’t expect to see you here, Cassia," Henry muttered, making Cassia chuckle. Liam turned to her with a curious look. "You know each other?" Cassia shook her head. "Not really. We met in Paris, and earlier today, he saved me." "Right," Henry added. "I'm Henry," he said, extending his hand. Lia
Marc inhaled deeply as he sat beside Stacy’s unconscious body. Machines beeped steadily, reminding him that despite the silence, she was alive. If not because of Fredrick who texted him about the incident, until now, he'd have been clueless. He watched her face, pale and still, her breath barely m
Adams didn’t waste another second. The moment Henry walked out of the store, blood still fresh on his lips and that mocking grin still etched on his face, Adams went after him. He didn’t care about the things he wanted to buy. Didn’t care about the people staring or the mess they left behind. He ne
Cassia blinked, trying to take in what he said. “If your mom really had something to do with this... then maybe Martinez was innocent?” she mumbled, but Darvan caught it. He looked at her. “You think he didn’t do it? Did he say anything?” Cassia sighed and sat down on the couch. “I don’t even know
“So she erased my memory?” Darvan murmured to himself, lowering his gaze, as if the explanation had confirmed something he wasn’t ready to accept. “Why do you ask? Are you considering undergoing the procedure?” the doctor asked, pushing his glasses down the bridge of his nose as he tapped the back
The phone rang once, twice… and just as Cassia was beginning to lose her patience, Martinez picked up. “Cassia?” His voice was low, almost hesitant, as if afraid to say her name. She swallowed. “Good morning.” She greeted him, but he didn’t reply. “Have you thought about it? I—” “How did you
Mrs. Sinclair froze. Her breath caught in her throat as Darvan’s words echoed in the room. She couldn’t speak. Her hands trembled slightly, but she quickly hid them behind her back. Her eyes locked with his, and for the first time, there was something raw in her expression… something she hadn’t sh
By the time the car stopped in front of Justin's house, the sky was starting to turn from dark to light blue. Everything was quiet, the streets were empty, and the morning air felt a little cold. Frederick opened the car door, letting out a sigh as he stepped out. "Thanks for the ride." he murmured
The night felt like it would never end. Cassia sat quietly in the cold hospital corridor, leaning against the wall. Her eyes were tired, but she couldn’t sleep. The only sounds were the quiet footsteps of nurses passing by. Liam sat a few seats away, staring at his phone without really looking, whi
The night felt like it was moving in slow motion. Darvan lay on his bed, staring up at the ceiling while the room stayed completely dark. The ticking clock on the wall seemed to sound louder than usual, each second dragging on forever. He felt sleep creeping in, his eyelids getting heavy. But he di
