“Mr. Harper, you're improving greatly,” the doctor said with a pleased smile, his hands resting on the table. “I am certain that if you keep up with your therapy sessions and maintain a positive mindset, you will be standing and walking on your two feet again very soon.”

Jeremy Harper gave a casual nod, his expression neutral. “Thank you, doctor.”

The doctor shifted his attention to Leah, his smile widening. “Oh, and Mrs. Harper, I must commend you for the unwavering support you've shown your husband. I must also confess something.” He chuckled lightly before continuing, “His progress significantly improved after getting married to you.”

Leah smiled graciously, her hands clasped in front of her. “Thank you, doctor. It’s my earnest desire to see my darling husband walk again.”

Jeremy, who had been listening quietly, chuckled and cleared his throat. He noticed both the doctor and Leah staring at him, seemingly amused by his reaction. “Excuse me, please,” he said, feigning a cough.

    "Hello, Noah. Please, I need to see you urgently," Leah said into the phone, her voice trembling with panic.Noah sighed audibly on the other end. "Of course, Noah only gets remembered when trouble brews," he said, rolling his eyes."Don't be like this, Noah. It's a serious matter," Leah pleaded, her tone filled with urgency."I know. If it wasn't serious, you wouldn't call me," Noah replied curtly. His voice was laced with irritation. The call had been on speaker, but he quickly switched to handset mode and moved to a quieter environment."When was the last time you called me, Leah? We have unresolved issues, but you never cared enough to reach out and iron them out. You've changed so much," he said, his anger seeping through."I'm sorry, Noah. Please, let's meet up and talk," Leah implored.Noah wasn't ready to let go of his frustration. "Well, I'm busy with work. I don't have time," he said sharply."Come on, Noah. Don't be like this," Leah begged.But Noah was firm in his resolve.

    Devastation weighed heavily on Leah as she found herself in a dimly lit bar. The clinking of glasses, muffled laughter, and faint music filled the room, but her mind was too clouded to enjoy the atmosphere. She wasn’t here to mingle or celebrate; she just wanted to clear her head. Her shaky hands gripped the glass in front of her as she took a long sip of her drink, trying to drown the chaos within her.And then she saw someone. It was as if luck had shined on her. Big Margaret was at the bar with some acquaintances. Her driver was seated alone somewhere behind sipping from his glass.A nasty thought ran through Leah's mind. Her phone buzzed. It was Jeremy. She declined the call and turned off her phone. “Excuse me,” Leah called out to the waiter. The waiter moved close to her and she whispered something into the ears of the waiter and discreetly squeezed some money into her hands. The waiter smiled and nodded before leaving.Leah then moved to the seat where Big Margaret's driver w

    Leah woke up the next morning, too embarrassed to step out of her room. Her head aches badly from hangover. She needed some lemon juice to help with the hangover but was too embarrassed to leave her room. She couldn't face Jeremy or Maggie, especially Jeremy. Not after last night. She decided she would just pretend she didn't remember anything. But she recalled everything and she wasn't proud.She let her emotions emote and had endangered the life of a young innocent man, and even cost him his job. “Perhaps he wasn't so innocent. Maybe he was somehow involved in Big Margaret's shady deeds,” she thought, to somehow feel better.But still, she wasn't a bringer of justice or of death. She wasn't such a person. What had come over her. She hadn't even linked Big Margaret to her father's disappearance and yet, she went that extreme.She reprimanded herself for acting foolishly last night; with Noah, with Big Margaret and her driver and with Jeremy.She clenched her fists, frustration mingl

    “Noah, I'm so sorry,” Leah pleaded over the phone. Her voice was a blend of desperation and guilt as she tried to bridge the gap that had grown between them.Noah remained silent. The pause on the other end of the line stretched uncomfortably, but Leah could hear his breathing; a quiet reminder that he was still there, still listening, even if he didn't utter a single word.“Please say something. I miss you. I miss us,” Leah said, her voice calm and soft, insistent. “What has come over you, Noah?”“Me? I'm the problem, huh? You toss me about like I mean nothing. Like I'm just indispensable,” Noah said, his voice sounding frustrated.“You mean everything to me, Noah. You're my best friend. I couldn't afford to lose you,” Leah said sincerely.Noah was pleased to hear that. However, he longed for more. But he wouldn't push it. It had to flow naturally. He and Leah should be together, he believed. “I'm sorry I left the way I did knowing you had just discovered something as important as t

    Jeremy glared at Sarah, his expression a mixture of disdain and suppressed anger. The woman standing before him was once the center of his world, someone he had loved deeply and trusted completely. Now, she was nothing but a painful reminder of betrayal. “You stopped being a friend the moment you betrayed me. Now, unless you have something useful to say, I suggest you leave,” Jeremy said,his voice firm and authoritative.Her smile faltered, but she quickly recovered. “I came to talk about Conrad.”“Conrad?” Jeremy repeated, his interest piqued despite himself. “What about him?”Sarah hesitated, glancing at the door to ensure it was closed. “He’s planning something, Jeremy. Something big. And it involves your company.”Jeremy narrowed his eyes, his mind racing. He knew that though. “Why are you telling me this? What’s your angle?”Sarah sighed, a flicker of vulnerability crossing her face. “Let’s just say… I’ve realized I made some mistakes. Big ones. And I want to make things right.”

    Noah tracked and found Sarah. He pretended to accidentally bump into her. Her bag fell off, the contents scattered on the ground. Noah helped her pack her things from the floor, scanning through every item, his fingers moving swiftly, yet deliberately.“I'm so sorry,” he apologized.“Get lost, you loser,” Sarah yelled, her voice sharp as she quickly grabbed her bag and got up.She walked into a car and kissed the man who was in the driver's seat, before the car zoomed off. Noah figured the man must be Conrad. Noah quickly hopped on his scooter and drove away too, but he didn't follow the car.He stopped by a flower shop and bought a bouquet of flowers. Then he called Leah on the phone.“Hey. Can you come out?” Noah asked when Leah answered the phone.“Sure. You found something? Leah inquired.“Yeah. Let's meet at the usual spot,” Noah said.“See you shortly,” Leah replied and hung up.She quickly slipped into a fine simple silk gown, parked her hair up and zoomed off.Maggie caught he

    “Ugh!” Jeremy screamed from pain and frustration and anger. But what was he even angry about? He couldn't understand where his anger had stemmed from. He had been anxious, excited to come home, to Leah, but now… what was even wrong with him?Leah was startled by the outburst and rushed to help him. “Are you okay?”Jeremy shrugged his hands off her shoulders. “I'm fine, I'm fine. I can manage on my own,” he said, his tone a bit harsh.Leah took a step back, confused and slightly hurt. Still, she was impressively shocked by what she'd earlier seen. “I saw you…. standing? Jeremy, you did it!” Leah said excitedly.But Jeremy's expression was anything but. He struggled to adjust himself and when Leah attempted to help him, he turned away. “Don't worry, I can manage on my own.”“Our contract has been on for a little over two months now, huh?” Jeremy asked.The question sprung from nowhere and Leah couldn't fathom. “Have I done something wrong?” she asked him.“No, you haven't.

    Big Margaret had been discharged from the hospital and was at home resting now. However, her driver had lost his job. He had been too reckless with her car and her life, so she settled him and fired him.Then she made a few calls, requesting that she needed a replacement as quickly as possible. The salary was very attractive.“Hello, Sarah. I have been trying to reach Conrad. Is he with you?” Big Margaret asked when Sarah picked her phone call. Sarah sighed, clearly annoyed by something.“Yeah, just a minute,” Sarah said and went to hand over the phone to Conrad. “There's a call for you.”Conrad looked surprised. “Who's it?” He asked.“Here, please,” Sarah handed him the phone almost aggressively, hissing.Big Margaret rolled her eyes. She didn't have time for any lovebird fights, and there was work that needed to be done.Conrad hesitantly spoke. “Hello?”“Conrad. You two are fighting again? About what this time?” Big Margaret asked just out of courtesy and curiosity.“Please ignore

    Leah's hands trembled as she stared at the contents of the safe. Her breath hitched, and she felt Noah’s gaze on her, watching, waiting for her reaction.Besides the neatly arranged documents, a small velvet box, and most shockingly, a sealed envelope with her name written in bold, elegant handwriting.Her father’s handwriting.Leah swallowed hard, her pulse pounding in her ears. She reached for the envelope first, her fingers shaking as she tore it open. A letter slid out, the paper slightly aged but still crisp.She hesitated, glancing up at Noah who gave her an encouraging nod.A part of her didn’t want to read it. A part of her feared what she would find. But she had come too far to turn back now. Taking a deep breath, she unfolded the letter and began to read.My Dearest Leah,If you’re reading this, it means you’ve found the safe, and I can only hope you have done so before Margaret did.There is so much I wish I could tell you in person, so much that I have kept from you, not o

    Leah and Sarah were a couple now. And Jeremy was stuck with Sarah. Jeremy had called Leah to explain that he was family oriented and wanted his child to grow in a serene environment, and that even though he didn't love Sarah, he was stuck with her for the sake of the baby.“Go to hell,” Leah said harshly.“I'm sorry, Leah. I never meant for any of this to happen. I never meant to hurt you. I'll always love you,” he said sincerely.“Screw you,” Leah said and hung up abruptly.He had the guts to spew those words to her.“I'm family-oriented, Leah. I want my child to grow up in a stable home. I don't love Sarah, but I have to be with her for the sake of the baby.”His words had rung in her ears long after she hung up, after she spat out the harsh words, “screw you.”She blinked repeatedly to stop the tears that were forming in her eyes. Thankfully, it worked. She inhaled and exhaled sharply.She would not cry over Jeremy any longer. Leah had always believed that nothing happened by cha

    Leah walked out of Jeremy’s house, her breath ragged, her heart hammering violently against her chest. The night air hit her face, cool but unable to calm the storm inside her. She wrapped her arms around herself, trying to hold in the emotions threatening to spill over. Pregnant. Sarah was pregnant. Jeremy’s child. The words replayed in her mind like a broken record, each repetition digging deeper into her chest. How could this be happening? And now? Tears stung her eyes as she walked aimlessly down the street, her vision blurred. She had no idea where she was going, only that she couldn’t stay there. She couldn’t stand in the same room as Sarah, couldn’t watch Jeremy wrestle with the consequences of his mistakes. Her feet carried her without thought, her emotions too raw to care where she ended up. Then, as if by fate, she found herself in front of Noah’s apartment. She hesitated. Noah. The one who had always been there. The one who had seen her at her lowest, who had h

    Conrad was stressed and needed to relax. Not sleep ‘relax’, or any other kind of rest. He needed his woman.He attempted to touch Sarah but she kept resisting him.He was burning with desire. Sarah had been denying him of sex for some time now, but Conrad didn't make a fuss about it because he thought it could be the pregnancy hormones.But tonight, he needed her badly.“Stop it, please,” Sarah said softly, pushing his hand away and slightly adjusting herself on the bed.“Come on, baby. You know it's been a while. I'm starving,” Conrad said, his voice sounding desperate, like someone in need.He moved closer to her again, and Sarah could feel the unmistakable pressure of his arousal pressing against her. He rubbed her shoulders with his hands and kissed her neck and shoulders.It irritated Sarah.“Stop it, I said,” she yelled now, sitting up on the bed.“Please, just give me some tonight. I miss you so much. Don't you miss me?” Conrad asked, his body on fire.“Conrad, I'm so tired and

    “You think she’s really still there?” Leah asked.Moah exhaled sharply. “I don’t know. But if she is, then someone else is doing her dirty job.”Leah hesitated before nodding. “Most likely.” They had no choice but to confirm.Leah’s mind raced with possibilities. Big Margaret was so powerful. She had so many people working for her. What if one of her goons was out doing Big Margaret's dirty jobs? What if her grandfather had been killed? Or what if he was locked up somewhere else? Noah squeezed her hand. “We’ll figure this out.”Leah nodded, though her pulse refused to calm.Meanwhile, inside New York Women's House of Detention….Conrad adjusted his blazer as he walked down the narrow prison hallway, his footsteps echoing in the dimly lit corridor. The prison smelled of disinfectant and something stale. Something rotten.The guard escorting him stopped in front of a thick iron-barred door. “She’s waiting for you.”Conrad nodded, his jaw tightening.The door clanked open, and Big Marga

    Leah let out a breath she hadn't realized she was holding as she knelt before her mother, taking her hands in hers. “Ma, thank God you're fine. I was worried to death when I didn't find you in the ward,” she said, searching her mother’s face for any sign of discomfort. A gentle smile touched Mama’s lips. “We tried to call you, but your number wasn’t connecting. So we called Noah instead,” she explained. “He hired a taxi and brought us home.” Leah’s brows lifted. “Noah?” “Yes. He just left,” Mama replied. Noah had left Leah in the hospital when he saw Jeremy, claiming he had to attend to something important, but still he rushed back to help her mom knowing she was with Jeremy. That was just his nature. Noah was so pure hearted. But why didn't he stay back. Was he trying to cut himself from her? The thought of that hurt Leah. She wouldn't let it. “Where were you?” Mama asked, curious. “Ma, I had to attend to something very important. I'm sorry I wasn't there when you were discha

    Leah laid in Jeremy's arms, her body still tingling from their intense love making. Her heart pounded in her chest, but for the first time in what felt like forever, it wasn't out of fear or grief. It was from something else entirely. Something warm. Something safe.Jeremy's fingers traced soft circles on her back as he held her close, his breath steady and calm against her forehead.Neither of them spoke for a while. They just listened to each other's heartbeats, to the silence that wrapped around them like a protective cocoon.It was Leah who finally broke the silence. “I can't believe I'm here,” she murmured, her voice barely above a whisper.Jeremy shifted, looking down at her. “Here?” he asked, brushing a strand of hair from her face.Leah nodded. “With you. After swearing that I wanted nothing to do with you.”Jeremy sighed, his grip on her tightening a little. “I know. Thank you for being here. Honestly, I don't think I'd remain the same if you walked away.”Leah didn't respon

    Leah was shaken by what they had just heard.She feared that her grandfather had died.“I think Big Margaret has killed him,” she said, trembling.“We're not sure,” Jeremy said, holding her so that she didn't fall.Leah was shaking, her body rigid with shock, but no tears streamed down her face. It was as if the weight of her emotions had paralyzed her. Jeremy guided her towards the car, opening the door and helping her inside. Without hesitation, he entered the car through the other door and sat beside her, his presence unwavering.Her hands were cold, her breath shallow.Jeremy placed her head on his chest.“Back to the hospital?” Jackson asked politely.Jeremy looked at Leah. She was staring blankly at the seat before her, lost in a daze. He sighed. “No. Take us to the mansion,” he instructed, his tone steady, decisive. Leah wasn't in a good state. He couldn't let her go to the hospital like that just yet. Her mother would become even more worried. Leah heard Jeremy instruct Jack

    Leah and Jeremy walked side by side, as they exited the hospital. Leah's mind wandered. She couldn't shake off the guilt she was feeling, considering how Noah left. He was supposed to be the one accompanying her to the pharmacy.She glanced at Jeremy, who was staring straight ahead, his jaw tight as though he was deep in thought. “Thank you for coming,” she said softly.Jeremy turned to face her and smiled. “Of course. You know I’d always show up for you.”Leah nodded, appreciating his presence. But as they stepped outside, her mind drifted again to Noah. She couldn’t ignore the way he had looked at Jeremy, the way he had walked away without a second glance.She sighed.Jeremy noticed. “What’s wrong?”Leah hesitated, debating whether to tell him. She had always been honest with him, but this felt complicated. Finally, she said, “Noah… he saw us the other night.”Jeremy frowned. “And?”Leah looked away. “I think it hurt him. I don’t know, I just… I don’t want to lose him as a friend.”
