"I'm sorry, Sophia. But her daughter's hurt even worse." Among the rubble, Sophia watched in disbelief as Jared pushed her aside, choosing to go to his first love. But who would save her daughter, who lay unconscious, a steel rod piercing her small body? At Molly's funeral, Sophia silently vowed she was done with Jared. She wanted a divorce. But just as she made up her mind, Jared stumbled back to her, grabbing her hand and telling her she was the one he loved. Sophia looked at a handsome man beside her, her arm linked with his. She smiled slightly and said, "Alright. If Molly agrees, I'll consider it."

Chapter 2 He's Here
Sophia's POV"Jared, how could you do this?" I collapsed, dropping to my knees.There were no other firefighters in sight. With no other choice, I began to dig through the rubble with my bare hands. My nails tore, and blood streaked my hands, but I couldn't stop. Molly needed me.My hands throbbed, and my head spun with dizziness. Just when I felt I might pass out, a metal pipe suddenly appeared in front of me."Ma'am, do you need help? Wait, Sophia?" A familiar voice sounded from behind me."Alexander?" I looked up, stunned to see him there."I'm back in town on business. Forget about this," he said, quickly wedging the pipe under a massive stone beside Molly. "Maybe this will work."I stood beside him and steadied the pipe with all my strength. Finally, with a heavy, gut-wrenching sound, we managed to pry the huge rock off together."Mommy..." Molly's soft voice whispered as she smiled up at me from under the rubble, her hand going limp.Even so, she still clutched that plus

Chapter 3 His Love
Sophia's POV'Jared, don't you dare try to brush me off again! You owe me a reasonable explanation,' I thought, gritting my teeth.I had always loved him. But ever since Charlotte returned, he felt like a stranger to me. My love for him was slowly crumbling.I supported his kindness and respected his career, but I couldn't accept how he was neglecting Molly. In a life-or-death situation, he didn't even spare a glance at her.I quickly ran in the direction he had disappeared. He walked to a luxurious hospital room and swiftly pushed open the door.I peeked through the window to observe the situation inside.An elegant figure sat with her back to me, sobbing quietly. Her golden hair cascaded down, brushing against Jared's arm, making them look even more intimate."Jared, the doctor said she's badly injured, and I'm afraid..." she trailed off, crying even louder."Don't be upset, Charlotte," Jared said, patting her back gently. "She'll be fine, I promise. This is the best children

Chapter 4 Face Reality
Sophia's POVMy mind was on the verge of collapse. Molly lay pale and lifeless on a hospital bed, and even after I told him everything, Jared still chose to stay with someone else.'Ten minutes? He has been with them long enough. Does he really need to stay?' I thought bitterly, trying to calm down.Molly needed me, and I couldn't let her see my anger. She was eagerly waiting for Jared.After pulling myself together, I stepped back into her room."Sweetheart, I'm back. Oh my God!" I nearly collapsed right there.Molly's face was ghastly pale. Her body was twitching, and blood trickled from her mouth.Clueless, I fumbled for the emergency call button."Molly? Oh my God, doctor, help!" I cried out.Doctors rushed in, and I was pushed outside before I knew it, the door slamming in my face.I peered inside through the tiny window, but all I could see were doctors blocking my view. I sank to the floor, clasping my hands together in desperate prayer."Please, God, save my little g

Chapter 5 Losing Molly
Sophia's POVI slowly sat down on the edge of the bed."Mom, I feel much better. Can we go find Daddy now?" Molly asked, coughing lightly and flashing me a weak smile.I nodded numbly, but my mind was still reeling from the doctor's words. He had told me that due to multiple organ failures, Molly's life was now on a countdown.All medical measures were just to ease her pain. I couldn't face this reality."Mom, don't cry. I'm getting better," she said, lifting her hand to wipe away the tears on my face."I know, my angel is the best," I whispered, gently holding Molly's hand and nuzzling her knuckles with my cheek."Mom, I want to go home," Molly whispered to me.My heart ached again. I wanted so badly to take her home, but the doctor had given her the final notice.I choked back a sob. "When you get better, I will take you home. We'll go to the amusement park, buy your favorite strawberry cake, and get you the newest dolls."I sniffed, trying to maintain a smile. "Is there an

Chapter 6 A Good Girl
Jared's POVAfter leaving the fire scene, I immediately called Sophia back. Her voice sounded off, sending a chill down my spine.Her cold laughter rang in my ears. "You'll regret this for the rest of your life.""Don't say that, Sophia. I know Molly is hurting right now, and I swear I'll go see her as soon as possible. But Mia..." I turned to look at Charlotte, who was sitting behind me.Charlotte was a single mom. Life was hard on her, and I couldn't abandon them like that.I wanted to say more, but Sophia abruptly ended the call. My heart ached, a sense of unease washing over me. I couldn't grasp what she meant. There must be some misunderstanding.Molly was my daughter too, and I was worried about her.I just thought we had plenty of time, so I decided to help those who needed me more."Is everything okay? Is Sophia upset? You should go comfort her," Charlotte said, walking up to me with concern. "She must be jealous. It's all my fault. If I could handle this on my own, I w

Chapter 7 The Last Chance
Sophia's POVI stared at Molly, her small form so still that she seemed merely asleep."Don't worry, my little angel. Daddy is on his way. He'll be here soon," I whispered, clutching her hand.I rubbed it between my own, trying to coax some warmth back into it, as if by doing so, she might open her eyes and smile at me again."No, don't leave me, please." I pulled the dust-covered Teddy Bear into my arms, and hot tears slipped down my cheeks.A sudden knock on the door jolted me from my daze. I sprang up, wondering if it was Jared.I hadn't given up all hope, not yet. 'Maybe all of this is some awful misunderstanding. Maybe Charlotte lied. She is capable of it, so easily able to deceive Jared. Why not me?'I clutched the Teddy Bear close to my chest. I would give Jared the gift Molly had picked out for him. I wanted him to see what he'd done.I took a deep breath and threw open the door.But when I saw who was outside, the doll fell from my hands. "It's you guys.""Ma'am, we'

Chapter 8 Molly's Gone
Sophia's POVI slowly placed Molly's clothes into a cardboard box. Each item I folded took me minutes, as I had to pause and wipe away tears.She was lying in that cold morgue now. Before the funeral, I had to get her things sorted out.I reached for the photo on the nightstand. It was one of her favorites. She held Jared's hand in one of hers and mine in the other, smiling with such pure joy.I clutched the photo close to my heart, whispering, "Don't worry, my love. Mom and Dad will always be with you."I managed a faint smile, holding the photo up to look at her face. "We're going to the amusement park, sweetheart, just like we promised."My fingers traced the outline of her face in the photo.Jared had to come back. I'd messaged him so many times. My heart insisted he would finally show up.Wiping my eyes again, I lay down on Molly's bed. This was my last chance to feel her close.When dawn broke, I forced myself up and did my makeup. I needed it to be perfect. Then, holdin

Chapter 9 You Still Have Me
Sophia's POVJared had to know the truth."Molly is already..."But my words were interrupted by the ringtone of his phone."Sorry, just a moment," he said, anxiously picking up his phone.I had to swallow back the words I was about to say."What? Okay, I understand. I'll be right there." He hung up the phone, looking at me with urgency. "I'm sorry. Something urgent came up. I have to go.""You told me you had everything sorted out. How can there be another damn emergency now?" I broke down."I'm sorry, but I really have to go." His expression was as sincere as ever.He stepped closer, wrapping his arms around my shoulders and pulling me into his embrace.I leaned against him, but it only made me feel worse."You always say so." I trembled, pointing at him. "You can't keep doing this to me.""Thank you for understanding. Tell Molly I’ll be back soon, okay?" he said, stuffing the doll back into my arms.As he hurried out of the house, he said, "I'll bring gifts for both of

Chapter 10 The Truth
Sophia's POVThis couldn't be happening again. I must have been mistaken.He'd said he was sorry and that he wouldn't repeat the same mistake. There had to be something I didn't know.With that thought in mind, I tucked the bear back into my bag and hurried forward to catch up."Mom, I wanna ride that!" Mia pointed excitedly to a roller coaster in the distance."You're still recovering. I don't think that's a good idea." Jared quickly stopped her.Mia tugged at his sleeve, pleading like only daughters could with their fathers.The three of them looked so happy. Jared was doting on Charlotte and Mia like they were his whole world, while Molly was lying lonely and forgotten in a hospital bed.Swallowing the painful lump in my throat, I strode forward and planted myself in front of them."Jared!" I called out, reaching out my hand. "Care to explain what's going on here?""Uncle Jared." Mia was scared and threw herself into Jared's arms.He pulled her close and patted her back,
