Finally, a chime from her phone shattered the oppressive silence of the room. Her heart leaped with anticipation as she read the text message from the hotel boy. William had placed an order for food, a development that sent a wicked thrill through her veins. A triumphant smirk curled her lips as she texted the hotel boy back, her message dripping with malice.

"Remember what to do. Put the sleeping pills in his drink, and make sure you leave me his room number," she instructed, her words concise, her intent clear.

A reply came swiftly, the hotel boy's compliance evident in his brief response. "I understand," he typed, his willingness to follow through on her instructions evident in his words.

    The small, run-down house stood amidst a cluster of similarly dilapidated buildings in the heart of the bustling downtown city. Its paint, once vibrant, had long faded, leaving behind a dull, weathered facade. The wooden door creaked in protest as Tessa pushed it open, revealing a narrow corridor that led to a series of tiny rooms.Inside, the air was heavy with the scent of dampness and neglect. The walls, stained with age, seemed to close in on them, creating an atmosphere of confinement. The room Tessa had rented was the epitome of simplicity, furnished with only the most basic necessities. A single bed with a worn-out mattress occupied one corner, and a small wooden table, scarred from years of use, stood by the window. There was a sink tucked away in a corner, and a curtain provided some semblance of privacy for a makeshift bathroom.Despite its shabbiness, Tessa felt a strange sense of liberation within these walls. It was a fresh start, a new chapter in their lives away from th

I'll explain everything to Tessa. She always understands me," he reassured himself, trying to quell the growing unease in his chest.Dressed in fresh clothes, he sat down at the hotel room's small table, glancing at the untouched brea

Alone in her hotel suite, she couldn't fucking understand why her meticulously orchestrated plan hadn't shattered William's world as intended.

Her voice was sharp, edged with impatience.The private investigator's voice crackled through the phone speaker. "I've been tailing him, but he's determined. He's asking questions, talking to neighbors, trying to find any trace of his wife and kids."Cindy's nails dug into her palm, her irritation growing. "I don't want excuses! I want results! How hard can it be to make him believe those pictures? I made sure those pictures looked real. He has to believe them! He has to hate her, so he can come to me."The investigator's tone remained steady, attempting to ease her frustration. "Maybe he's just in denial, ma'am. Sometimes, people refuse to accept the truth, especially when it concerns their loved ones. I understand your frustration, Ms. Cindy, but he's not an easy target. He loves his family, and he's not willing to accept anything without concrete proof."Cindy scoffed, h

    "I couldn't help but notice you from across the room. You look absolutely stunning in that emerald dress. I’m not gonna lie, when I tell you that,”Sarah smiled politely, but there was a hint of skepticism in her eyes. "Thank you," she replied.

    He can't help but chuckle bitterly. Now, he finally understood. His mother and Harper Davis have the same evil personality.They would do everything just for their gain. They're just both evil."You hate Harper, but you aren't aware that you're just the same as her, mom.”"How dare you compare me to that woman?!" she seethed, her voice sharp with indignation. "I would never stoop to her level!"His own frustration bubbling to the surface. "You're both willing to manipulate and use anyone, even your own family, to get what you want.

How can you accuse me of such things? Why can’t you understand me, huh? Are we going to fight forever, William?”"Because it's true, mom! You blackmailed me, you used my children as le

    Lucas Davis entered the room with a casual swagger, his eyes flickering with a hint of amusement. He was well aware of the tension in the air, but it didn't seem to faze him in the slightest."Ohh, we have guests today! Mr. Reign, my apologies for the delay. Business calls, you know how it is," Lucas said with a dismissive wave of his hand, as if being late was a minor inconvenience.William felt a surge of irritation. "I understand that, Mr. Davis.
