“No!”“Please!”“Stop!”“I am sorry!”“This is painful!”Anna heard voices climbing the stairs. She halted and frowned her forehead, trying to pay attention to the noise.“Who is that?” She wondered and listened to the noises attentively.“Forgive me, please. This is so painful.”She continued to hear the noise till the voice sounded familiar, and figuring who it was, her eyes widened in shock. “Is that-” she let out, but couldn't complete her statement before she picked up her speed and ascended the stairs faster.She opened the door abruptly and barged into the room to see Cohen rapidly shaking his head with tears streaming out of his closed eyes.She stood at a spot for a minute, eyeing her from a little this. “Wh… what’s going on?” She raised a question in a low voice. Her voice shaking in fear mixed with confusion.“Please, save me. You're my only savior. I need your help. Please don't leave me. Don't hate me.” Cohen spoke again, but in a lower voice.Anna swallowed her saliva de

She was pressing her phone before they entered, so she quickly optimized it and closed the recently used apps.She put the phone down and stood on her feet. “Let’s go.” She ordered, walking out of her seat.“Ma, you haven't eaten anything yet. You didn't have breakfast and it’s already time for lunch,” Ailee expressed, worried. “Should I get you something to eat first?”Patricia nodded, grinning. “No, I am fine,” she rejected. “I will eat later.”Ailee wasn't convinced by Patricia's sour smile, so she insisted. “No, you aren't fine. Wait for me to get you something. Maybe a snack or even biscuits and juice.” She gave an alternative.Patricia nodded. “I am-” she

“The president is here.” Ailee announced and the audience turned their neck to set their eyes on her.Patricia let her left foot into the hall first and glanced back at Anna, pretending she was talking to her, but was showcasing her leg chain which was a product of her latest jewelry investment company, so she wanted the cameras to catch it well and clearly.She took her right foot in and stood straight with her shoulder back and her head held high before she began to take long purposeful strides with a confident gait, making eye contact with the audience to show poise with a subtle smile on her face as she walked towards the stage.“She is brave!”“This is authority!”Few online keyboard warriors instantly changed their minds and admired her immediately as the media companies went live.“Is that a smile on a cheater’s face?”“Wow!”“How dare her still smile!”“How can a whore be happy?”“She is a bad woman!” “What a shameless, unfaithful woman!”Higher viewers left hateful comments,

Bastian left his office reading comments. He wanted to log out, but just whenever he wanted to, his eyes would catch glimpses of other comments, which he would eagerly scroll to read until he couldn't stop himself again.He entered Patricia's office, fixing his eyes on his phone screen as he kept scrolling through comments which didn't ease to bring an excited smile to his face.He didn't raise his head to look at his front, and not knowing he had gotten close to the stairs, he hit his feet on the first stairs, causing his phone to slip out of his hand.His eyes widened, shocked, but he quickly grabbed the phone before it could touch the ground.“Oh, my!” He breathed heavily for a few seconds and couldn't close his eyes back to normal yet.“Are you okay?” Patricia’s voice arrived in his ears and he shook his head. He closed his eyes and turned to her, smiling.“I am fine.”She beamed. “Seems you are lost in thought. What are you reading that got you so carried away?”“Haven't you check

“What are you talking about?” Anna raised a question after a long argument over the phone call. Her mind was already boiling in anger, but she cooled it to maintain a calm voice.“Anna, how is this my fault? Hun!” Chairman Hewitt questioned in a high tone, making Anna move the phone away from her ear a bit.She looked at the phone screen and withered her mouth in irritation.After allowing chairman Hewitt shouted for a moment, she found herself a space to pour out her mind. “What do you think you are doing, chairman Hewitt?”“I am not sure, but it seems they will soon find out the culprit, and I am happy to tell you I will go out of the country for a while,” chairman Hewitt proclaimed. “I can't be dragged down with this small issue. Never.”Patricia snickered. His words triggered her rage, and she couldn't hold herself back from yelling. “Does this make sense to you?”“I told you her secrets. I told you everything you need to destroy her and you fail!” Immediately, as she completed he

“Oh, my…” Elsie let out in awe, coating her mouth with her hands to keep her voice low. Her eyebrows lifted in awe after eavesdropping Anna’s conversation with an unknown person.She moved her ear from the door and shook her head. ‘How can she do this?’ She thought to herself.She took a step backwards and rounded her hands around her waist, biting the left side of her lower lip. “What should I do?” She thought for a second, and her mind boiled in rage. She stormed to the door, wanting to barge in and challenge Anna, but she cautioned herself and stepped back.“I should inform Cohen.” She decided and quickly veered around to the stairs.She hurriedly descended the stairs. She was wearing slippery sandals, and her legs slipped, causing her left ankle to sprain.“Ouch!” She moaned. She bent a bit, wanting to touch her ankle, but she ignored the pain and rushed to the living room.She picked up her phone from the sofa and hurriedly dialed Cohen’s number, but he didn't pick his call.She

“Cohen, I am not sure if I heard her right, but she mentioned a chairman and my friend working at Maximo company told me Anna visited their company.” Elsie split out.“Are you saying it may be Chairman Hewitt of Maximo investment?”Elsie nodded. “Yes. I think it's him.” She pulled out, and without waiting to hear another word from her, Cohen rushed out. He stormed out of the elevator, and without minding staff members or others looking at him, he picked up his speed to the park lot.He pressed the car remote control and unlocked it before he arrived beside it. He opened the car in anger and aggressively inserted the key.The engine started, and he zoomed out of the company.“I need to find out the truth! I must help Patricia in any way I can.” He ground his teeth and pressed down on the accelerator pedal, and the car speed increased.He drove to the main road and cut off other drivers, honking the horn excessively and unnecessarily.He arrived at the traffic signal spot and ran red li

-THREE MONTHS LATER-“What are you doing, Cohen?” Patricia challenged as Cohen slowly reversed the car. “Aren’t we going to pick the kid at the school anymore?”“We will.” Cohen answered as he drove into the other lane and headed toward their street.“Then why are you reversing? Why are you heading back home?” She questioned.“I forgot something at home.” Cohen informed.“What did you forget? Hun?” she asked, looking at him with a side of her eyes.“My phone.” Cohen responded.“Why must we go back to pick up your phone? It will take less than an hour to get back home. Can’t you just let’s go?” She queried.“I can’t because I am a business owner. I mustn’t stay away from my phone.” Cohen gave an excuse with his eyes fixed on the road ahead.“It’s the weekend, Cohen. No one will call you today. Stop giving excuses and let’s pick the kids. We shouldn’t keep them waiting for a long time.” Patricia said.“I’m not going because of business, but I need to pay fees before we can take the kids

Cohen discharged a deep breath as he walked out of the bathroom. He paused for a second and rounded his hands over his waist, forgetting what he wanted to do next at that moment.A thought passed through his mind and he wiped his right hand over his face with the left still on the waist.Patricia’s phone rang, and he walked to the cabinet on the bedside and picked it up. “Who could be?” He wondered with his eyes furrowed, confused, and before he could turn to the door, the call ended and a message came into her eyes.Since Patricia’s phone was always unlocked, Cohen saw the message’s content and his eyes enlarged as a surprised tone escaped his mouth. “Hun!”He bit his lower lip and after a few second thought, he reached a conclusion and instantly swiped the message to the left to delete it. He returned the phone to the bed cabinet and rushed out of the room.He arrived in the sitting room and saw his mother watching the TV while Elsie was packing their breakfast out of the kitchen an

“Who is here for me?” Anna threw a question at the security officer escorting her out of the room, showing no interest in meeting the person. The security officer opened the door for her and immediately as she sighted Patricia, she veered around.Patricia quickly stood on her feet. “Is that how to treat a guest?” She threw a question. “Shouldn’t you at least stay to hear why I am here? Your daughter, Rachel, don’t you have any message you want to pass to her?”Patricia’s words made Anna’s feet froze, and she halted for a minute before she slowly veered around and walked to the chair and sat down. “I have no message for Rachel. She doesn’t deserve a mother like me. I don’t worth to be called a mother,” she poured out. “Tell me why you are here. I don’t want to talk with you.”Patricia discharged a deep breath and sighed. She stared at Anna with a pity and despite having a lot of things in her mind, she couldn’t open her mouth to talk at the moment.Anna sighed. “Take your eyes away fro

Anna abruptly opened the door and banged in, panting. “Ma! Ma! Ma!” She shouted, running towards Patricia’s desk.Patricia was shocked, and she couldn’t utter a word. Instead, she widened her eyes and watched Anna arrived in front of her desk before she could pull a word out. “What happened?” She asked, the worried in her voice cooperating with the concern in her voice.Anna breathed heavily as she bent her back and placed her hands on her knees.“What happened?!” Patricia raised her voice. She was getting more scared by Anna’s reaction.Anna panted for another second before she raised her hand and stood straight on her feet. “It’s him…” she uttered, but couldn’t complete her statement.She pointed her thumb at her back, crossing it over her shoulder without looking backward. “It’s him…” she continued, struggling to complete her statement but couldn’t.“It’s who?” Patricia asked, with her lips already quivering. “Calm yourself and talk, Anna.

Ailee walked into the office and stood in front of Bastian’s head. She bowed her head, holding a file in her hand. “Good morning, sir,” she greeted, but Bastian, whose head was placed on the desk, didn’t respond to her.“Good morning, sir,” she greeted again, but still no response.She furrowed her face. “What’s wrong with him?” She asked herself in a low voice. She observed him for a second and bent a bit to check if he was sleeping, but his eyes were wide open, making her guess he was just lost in thought.She elevated her shoulder a bit with her mouth shaped to the left a little. “What’s wrong with him?” She asked herself put the file on the desk and let out. “The president said I should give this to you.”She eyed her for another few minutes and turned around to leave, but as she took three steps forward, she halted because she was worried and couldn’t leave Bastian in that situation.“Gosh…” she uttered and discharged a soft breath and, without giving her decision a second thought

Patricia heard a knock on the floor, and she stopped pressing her laptop. She glanced at her wristwatch. “8:05 Am? Who could it be?” She wondered.She stared at the door and raised her voice so it could reach the person. “Come in.” She permitted and immediately continued pressing her laptop.“Good morning, ma.”She heard a familiar voice and instantly raised her gaze. “Cohen?!” she exclaimed with her eyes widened in disbelief, and she couldn’t say another word. Instead, she fixed her eyes on him and watched him stride closer.Cohen arrived in front of his desk and bowed his head. “Good morning, ma,” he greeted. He raised his head and crossed his hand behind him as he stared downward and slightly bent his neck to apologize. “I’m sorry I arrived late,”“I have to drop my mother at the hospital.” He exclaimed.“What are-” Patricia opened her mouth to talk, but Cohen interrupted her.“I’m sorry.

“Be careful…” Patricia cautioned Williams, who was already a few steps ahead of her out of the hospital and had been jumping around since the doctor said he was perfectly healthy now. There was no injection for him anymore.“Mom, please call Dad. This call for celebration. I am happy,” Williams let out. He stopped jumping, but couldn’t help pacing fast because he was so excited. He halted and glanced backward at his mother. “And don’t forget to invite Mr. Cohen as well. He needs to be there. I hope he is fine now and will have the strength to come.”“Sure, I will,” she agreed. She took a few steps closer to her and bent in his front. She passed the medicine nylon in her right hand to the left and placed it on Williams’s shoulder. “Williams, I know this won’t sound well with you or you won’t like it, but now that the truth is out and you know who Cohen is, you should change how you address him.”Williams furrowed his face as he raised his shoulder, stretching his hands beside him. “What

-Many weeks later-“Ma, it’s Mrs. Charlotte. She has been waiting for over two hours.” Anna proclaimed immediately as she entered the office. Patricia was working on a file, and Anna’s announcement made her halted. She raised her gaze and looked at Anna’s face. “Why did you keep her waiting?” She questioned. “You should have told her I was in a meeting.”“I did, but she insisted on staying, and Ailee told me to allow her. I even invited her to come into the office to wait for you, but she declined saying she doesn’t worth it.” Anna explained.Patricia sighed and closed the file on her desk. She stood and walked out of her seat, asking, “where is she now?”“At the third floor. She is waiting with others question,” Anna responded. Patricia had already walked to her side, and before she could add another word, Patricia increased her speed and already walked past her.Anna turned around and paced to Patricia with three steps between them. “You can stay. I will go call her.” She offered.
