Susan's POV

I got to the noddle soup a few minutes past noon.Much hadn't really changed here. It was just like yesterday when Patrick and I often spent our date nights in this noddle shop five years ago.Whenever we had a little money to spare, we often came here and enjoyed the bustling active dramas that often took place here. There wasn't anything peculiar about the shop but with the number of people that often came here to eat, there were often disagreements, quarrels or trivial fights happening.We would laugh and joke about them and enjoy each other's company for the night. We were just perfect.This wasn't really the time to think about the past. I strode into the noodle shop and spotted Patrick at

There were some small expenses that I felt ashamed to burden you with after my business failed, so I turned to Daniel for help."I continued, "It began with minor repairs around the house. I remembered how you had already split your transport money to work for the month, and I couldn't bring myself to add more to your responsibilities.""But Patrick, I wish you had told me.

I teased."Can someone explain what's happening here, and why do you have my child?" Susan demanded, her voice rising."Shut up! Don't talk to my Mistress like that!" George snapped, defending me. His loyalty pleased me; he finally saw his wife for what she was, a trash."Wait, are you two lovers? Is that why George calls you Mistress? Have you been cheating on me with her?"

    Susan's POV How could George do this to me? How could he mess up my life?I felt really mad and angry. George would have to face the consequences. He planned everything so well that I never suspected anything.He must have found out about my divorce with Patrick five years ago and followed me to the small town where I went to heal. He acted like he was meeting me for the first time and slowly became a part of my life.He must be probably feeling pleased with himself wherever he was, thinking he did a great job. But he would surely pay for all the pain he caused me.I wiped away my tears and asked Patrick, “Did you tell the police about this?”“Yes, they're still investigating. But for your safety and Isabella's, it's best if you stay away from him.”I agreed and quickly called the school.“I have to go pick up my daughter from school.
