★★★ Joshua was being closely followed by Artin and Gary in the back, but suddenly, they were being yanked back by ropes around their throats. As they battled to breathe, the rifles in their hands fell to the ground. Joshua, on the other hand, forced himself up off the ground and jerked his head. Although there was little light, he could feel a stinging pain in his browbone. He had a steady gaze, focused on that person. In contrast, a gaslight turned on and a familiar face emerged. The man said, “Remember me, boss.” “Snake!” Joshua exclaimed. “Nice to meet you. So, you are working for a woman now. Suits you,” Joshua mocked and launched forward with his tight fist that landed on that man’s nose. Prior to being kicked out of the organization for defrauding Joshua of his business, Snake had previously been working with them. “I’ve been itching to kill you for a while. The day finally came. Oh, yes, I need to tell you,” the man smirk with his bloody nose and continued, “I vented all
★★★As soon as they arrived at the hospital, Julia was rushed straight to the surgery room. Julius had moved onto the specialty ward as well. Gary and Artin had been holding Joshua back, but they soon felt Joshua collapse to the seat.They experienced a day that let them understand what it was like to lose someone. The pain of compulsion was so hazardous!But God could not be cruel to them.★★★One Week LaterJulia was transported to a garden with a pleasant floral aroma. Her eyes were mesmerized by the beauty of the newly blooming flowers, and although she was unable to say their names, this did not detract from her enjoyment. She crossed her legs as she sat on a lovely cushion.With a deep inhale, Julia murmured,“ It's magnificent."The warm sun penetrated her flesh as it cut the cold from her soul, making Julia feel alive and refreshed.Suddenly a gentle voice flowed into her ears, “Mum.”"Mum!"Julia was compelled to listen for the gentle voice. She was familiar with th
★★★Julia smiled as she waited for the door to close, then turned to face Joshua. “How can you deliberately hurt a child?” she questioned, her eyes shooting anger at Joshua, who sliced her words with an uncaring attitude.He leaned forward and placed a kiss on her lips.“ I suddenly feel like we haven’t enjoyed much time together,” Joshua whispered, then went up to her forehead and placed a loving kiss there.“I love you, Julia.”With an unexpected wind spin sensation entering her gut, Julia stiffened. On the surface of her heart, a tiny deer was prancing. Before today, she had no idea how enthralled by his revelation she would become; she was not only delighted but also over the moon.Joshua’s warm breath fell on Julia’s face as they both fixed their gaze on one other, their hearts were thumping in the protracted quiet.The powerful impulses in Julia’s heart caused her to blink more often than usual.

★★★Julia's eyes grew brighter as she exited the car and as the lights on the villa came on as if the festival were at the door.“Wow! What is this?” Asked Julia, turning her attention to Joshua who pushed her skirt's wrinkly corner downward.To ensure she wouldn't accidentally move it, her left hand was bound to her shoulder.“Humph! They decided to do something to make you feel welcome."Joshua told her, his gaze drawn to her stunned expression. He didn't imagine she would enjoy this juvenile nonsense. Otherwise, he would light up the building for the rest of their lives.“It is too much,” Julia mumbled and stepped up toward the vast entrance of the hall room. She heard no sound of her people, but she could definitely tell they were hiding to surprise her.As soon as she entered, she could hear shouting in all directions.“Welcome, Julia!!” Sussan shouted, followed by Julius, “Welcome, Mum!”Julia smiled brightly while revealing her teeth. After scanning everyone, she stopp
Six months later ★★★ Like a royal palace, the villa had been garlanded with blooms. An uproar could be heard everywhere. One after another, upscale cars could be seen pulling up. A wedding took place in the garden. People were seated in two rows that had been partitioned, and the bride and groom would stand on a stunningly garish stage. Gary and Artin accompanied Joshua to the stage while waiting for the bride. Joshua was anxious despite his best efforts to appear confident. Julia had stated that she would consider getting married after having their second kid, but after putting up with so much of his intransigence, she finally gave in. It didn't take long for Julia to show up at the location with her father, hooking her hand around his arm. She looked ethereal in a white gown, and her baby bulge could be seen peeking out. Not to be forgotten, Julius was chosen to carry the rings. The admiration in people's eyes for Julius was unavoidable. They were all cheering an
Timothy, my beloved, and I are about to get married. We have shared many dreams over the course of our long relationship, and we have now started the process of turning those dreams become reality. My step-sister, who appeared to be thrilled for me, and my entire family were happy. ★★★ Julia complained as she proceeded to her mother, "I forgot my veil in Stacy's room. Mother, could you please go get that for me?” Julia asked her stepmother, who furrowed her brows and scowled. “Use your feet, my love," her stepmother politely declined a minor request, but it didn't matter to her. Julia was never one to hold grudges, so she didn't bother nagging any further. Julia was dragging her bridal gown to the door when her mother cried out, "Wait, Julia, how could I forget to give you this?" “What exactly is this?" Julia inquired, her gaze fixed on the glass of water in her mother's palm. “This is holy water. I hoped for the best for your future,” her stepmother replied, caressing her head.
★★★ The next morning, Julia was in severe pain throughout her body. Rubbing her raw eyes, she moaned. She suddenly sensed that someone else was napping next to her, and when she turned her head to the other side, she indeed saw a man who had his back on her side. Julia jumped in fright, covering her mouth with the back of her hand. She was conscious of her nakedness beneath the sheet. Knowing what she had done to her, she began to cry. She was scared of the outside world and of facing Timothy, the guy she loved. She shook her head, "No, no, I can't." And made up her mind to never return to this city again. She got down, wiped her eyes, and picked up the gown off the ground. She stepped out of the room after putting it on. ** In the late afternoon, someone pushed in the door, disturbing the man's sleep. He said, "Stay out," since he believed the girl was still lying next to him, but this was all his imagination because the girl had already left. But on his shouting; the individua
★★ “How could you do such a thing to me? What have I done to you?" Julia sobbed as she realized it was her family who had mercilessly murdered her soul. "Because you've been loved by everyone, and that's exactly what I deserve." But our father is indifferent to me. Timothy never glanced at me, even if I wear the crown in his honor,” Stacy spit viciously in Julia's face, exacerbating Julia’s misery. As she wiped the tears from her cheeks, Julia whispered, "God will not spare you. “There is no God. If there were, you would not have experienced this and you would not be sobbing in front of me right now. So… my dear sister! You only have two choices: listen to us or allow us to post your video online,” Stacy remarked as she sat down in front of Julia. “After ruining me so much, what else do you want?” Julia yelled with red eyes. What miserable people they were, she could not believe. She had recently realized how her father and she had become victims of their trap. "Well, not much, r

★★★Joshua entered the house through the door that was already open, but even if it hadn't been, it wouldn't have made much of a difference because he wouldn't have bothered if he had to smash it. But as he entered and bumped into the bleeding body, his feet shook. There was blood all over the floor; it was impossible to tell if it was this man’s or if something had occurred to Julia and his son.“Boss, this, Miss Julia’s jewelry, and her handbag were discovered outdoors. Someone might,” Artin said and entered, but he was not required to finish the rest. He could see that his presumption was accurate. They were clearly taken by someone.Gary proclaimed, “I told it, we ought to assassinate Benjamin.”For the first time, Gary spoke about a subject on his own initiative rather than following instructions because he was aware of the significance Miss Julia and her son had for Joshua.“No, the perpetrator of this action cannot be Benjamin. He wants the boss to be at his disposal, but
★★★ Joshua exhibited childlike excitement as though he was about to receive his preferred surprise. His eyes were fixating on the image of the mother and son in his hand. In the picture, their smiles were beaming like the brightest sunshine of his life. He was simply angry with Julia for not telling him once, and that was it. Because Joshua was longing to have a child with her, but in reality, they already had one and Julia hid it. “Oh, Julia!! I will kill you. You deserve the harshest punishment!” Joshua thought but could not able to remove the smile from his lips. He held the picture close to his chest and ordered, “Drive faster!” Gary and Artin both nodded in tandem before accelerating the car. ★★ After absorbing such news, people in the mansion had already left. But they could not able to digest the entire occurrence, which hadn't made it to their stomachs; instead, it had stuck to their throats. Joshua's grandfather could not help but yearn to see his great-grandson's face.
★★★ In his black outfit, Joshua resembled a magnificent angel. He could still kill thousands of women's hearts while maintaining a straight face, but within he was unhappy since the message came from her. It made him shatter. His heart felt as heavy as a stone that had been purposefully placed, and both hands clasped their fists in his pockets. He held onto the hope that Julia wouldn't buy all this, or at the very least, would wait for him to explain it to her. But when he read her icy text, he was speechless. Rosetta, dressed in a lovely pink gown, appeared at Joshua's side. Her friends and relatives were with her. There were a few people present, but no media. However, everybody who attended the party could sense that the atmosphere was somber rather than cheerful. It did not feel like a celebration. While pretending to be having fun and smiling at one other, sipping on their drink, some people were actually forcing their feet to stay put since they couldn't get away. Howev
★★★Julia and Julius went to an ice cream shop to have some ice cream. Sussan refused to accompany them, claiming she had urgent business to attend to. Sussan was upset, and it was due to Julia's statements.But Julia merely desired tranquility.As someone who had experienced grief and failed relationships, she was used to them, but at least Joshua did not express his love for her; this was sufficient for her to believe that Joshua had no feelings for her. She couldn't possibly cry over it, so she didn't.“My ice cream is delicious; let me try yours, Mum!" Julius chimed as they boarded a cab heading for the home Julia had chosen for her father and Old May. They could live there comfortably."Hand me yours as well," Julia remarked gently as they exchanged ice cream."Mum, I want to tell you something I've been keeping from you," Julius informed his mother, avoiding eye contact.“Hmm! Spill the beans,” Julia said, sticking out her tongue to lick the ice cream. She did not observe
