Chapter 57As Evangeline sped away, she was unaware of Klein tailing her, frantically pressing down on his horn in a desperate attempt to catch her attention. Meanwhile, Klein was a picture of frustration inside his car, screaming at the top of his lungs, “Evangeline, stop!” His hands gripped the steering wheel tightly, his knuckles white as he cursed under his breath. Every missed chance to close the gap between them only heightened his fury.Evangeline eventually noticed Klein’s car in her rearview mirror, aggressively tailing her. Without hesitation, she took the first sharp turn she could, heading straight for her own company, SNCLR. The turn was so sudden and precise that Klein nearly missed it, his frustration boiling over as he tried to keep up. But Evangeline was driving like a seasoned pro, weaving through traffic with skill and ease, as if she had something to prove. She evaded other cars effortlessly, her focus sharp, her emotions fueling her every move.When she finally ar
Chapter 58Evangeline buried herself in work after her confrontation with Klein. She used it as a distraction from the emotional storm raging inside her. Her usually bright demeanor had faded and was replaced by a focused, almost mechanical professionalism. The day's tasks seemed endless, but Evangeline refused to let her personal issues seep into her work.And so as evening approached, she finally left her office with her company driver taking her back to Klein's estate. When she arrived, the first sight that greeted her was Lydia waiting on the patio with the triplets in a stroller. The babies were awake, contentedly sucking on their binkies. A smile tugged at Evangeline's lips at the sight of her children, but Lydia’s troubled expression quickly caught her eye.Evangeline approached Lydia with concern. "What’s wrong, Lydia?" she asked, her voice gentle but laced with worry.Lydia hesitated but then pointed towards the front door. "There are two people inside, a man and a woman. The
Chapter 59Run...Run, Evangeline!You do not deserve to be loved. You are a dirty, useless, defiled woman. Leave your children or they will suffer because of you. You do not deserve to have children as precious as them. Klein will leave you for another woman just like your husband did. No one is going to love you... Run!Evangeline's body trembled as she gasped for breath, her fingers gripping the sheets with a desperation that mirrored the terror in her mind. She was trapped in a nightmare so vivid that it felt disturbingly real. Jeremy's figure loomed over her, his weight pinning her down, suffocating her with the cruel repetition of a nightmare that refused to release its hold. Over and over, the same horrifying scenario played out, each cycle leaving her more drained, her breathing more shallow, until her mind could no longer distinguish between dream and reality.As the dream began to blur, her eyes fluttered open, heavy with exhaustion. Tears streamed down her face, unchecke
Chapter 60A few moments later, Lydia finally arrived and her presence immediately eased the tension that had settled thickly in the room. The sound of her footsteps, light yet purposeful, seemed to bring the usual atmosphere back into the space. She moved with ease that came from years of caring for children as her hands quickly and efficiently tended to the infants who had been fussing in Klein’s arms just moments before. The cries of the babies quieted almost instantly under her gentle touch, and the room, which had been filled with their distressed wails, grew peaceful.Klein watched her for a moment as he felt a wave of relief wash over him. With her taking over the care of the twins, Klein was able to step back with his shoulders dropping to is sides shifted off him. He immediately turned and headed straight to the bathroom.Once done with his morning routine, he then dressed in his usual attire. He wore his perfectly pressed slacks and a neat, expensive shirt, making him look l
Chapter 61Klein's mind was racing as he sped through the city streets, his eyes darting from the road to his phone, which lay on the passenger seat. He had been trying to reach Evangeline for what felt like hours but each call went straight to voicemail. The anxiety gnawed at him, each unanswered ring amplifying his fear. He needed to get to SNCLR quickly—Daphnie's threats had made it clear she wasn’t just planning to cause trouble; she might be looking to harm Evangeline, and he couldn't let that happen.The cars flashed past in a blur as Klein navigated the traffic with a frantic urgency. His grip tightened on the steering wheel, knuckles white as he pushed the car faster, weaving through the lanes with a reckless determination. The radio blared, but he barely noticed it, consumed entirely by thoughts of what could happen if he didn’t get there in time.As he approached the intersection leading to SNCLR, Klein’s eyes were fixed on the road ahead, searching for the quickest route. H
Chapter 62Evangeline watched with her heart in her throat, as they worked tirelessly to stabilize Klein. His face was ashen. There was a thin trail of blood that trickled from a cut on his forehead, and his chest rose and fell shallowly."Klein, it's me, Evangeline. I'm right here. Please hold on." She whispered, leaning closer.Suddenly, Klein's eyelids fluttered as a faint groan escaped his lips. Evangeline's breath caught, hope flaring in her chest."He's regaining consciousness," the female paramedic noted, shining a small flashlight into his eyes. "Pupils are reactive.""Klein?" Evangeline called softly, squeezing his hand. "Can you hear me?"His eyes opened slightly, glazed and unfocused, but they sought out her voice. His lips parted, attempting to form words, but only a hoarse whisper emerged."Don't try to speak," Mark advised, placing an oxygen mask over Klein's mouth and nose. "Just relax. We're taking you to the hospital."Klein's gaze settled on Evangeline with a flicker
Chapter 63Evangeline sat in the sterile hospital room as the bedside lamp cast a warm light that created subtle patterns of shadow on the walls. It had been days since the accident, and Klein still hadn’t woken up. The doctors had done all they could, and now, all that was left was the agonizing wait. But Evangeline refused to leave his side. Exhaustion pressed heavily on her. She had let Lydia and a few more nannies babysit the triplets as she focused all her strength in taking care of Klein. Dark circles under her eyes became a testament to the sleepless nights she had endured, but she didn’t care. All that mattered was Klein.She dipped a clean towel into a basin of warm water, wringing it out carefully before gently wiping Klein’s face. Her movements were slow and deliberate, as if she feared that even the slightest pressure could cause him more pain. The rhythmic motion of the cloth against his skin was almost soothing, giving her something to focus on other than the endless wor
Chapter 64Evangeline tore her gaze from Klein's indifferent expression, her heart pounding with a mixture of fear and confusion. She turned to Dr. Thompson, desperate for answers."What’s wrong with him, Dr. Thompson? Why is he looking at me like that?" Her voice trembled, barely holding back the tears that threatened to spill.Dr. Thompson's expression was compassionate but serious. He took a deep breath before speaking, knowing the weight of his words. "Ms. Evangeline, Klein has sustained significant trauma, particularly to his head. While his physical injuries are healing, the impact on his brain has been severe."Evangeline's heart sank further. "What does that mean? Will he recover? Will he remember me?"Dr. Thompson hesitated, choosing his words carefully. "Klein's injuries have led to a condition known as post-traumatic amnesia. It's common in cases where the brain has suffered a significant blow. His memories are fragmented, and he may have difficulty recalling certain events
