Alone in his house, surrounded by the echoes of his own thoughts, William couldn't shake the persistent questions that lingered in his mind. The events of the past days had left him in a state of emotional loneliness, and now, a new uncertainty crept into his consciousness – Cindy's sudden involvement in his life.

"Why is Cindy so eager to make me believe Tessa cheated on me?" William wondered aloud, his voice a low murmur in the empty room. His mind, still reeling from the shock of the pictures and the subsequent revelations, sought clarity amidst the chaos.

He paced back and forth, his steps echoing the restlessness within. Cindy's motives seemed dubious, and he couldn't fathom why she appeared out of nowhere, injecting herself into the midst of his crumbling world. Questions swirled in his mind like a tempest, demanding answers he struggled to find.

"She claimed to have seen Tessa with another man, but why? What does she gain from all this?" William mused, running his fingers throu

    "He's still in town, living in his house. Hasn't left the province."William's eyes widened in shock. If Jay was with Tessa, as he suspected, then why was Jay still here? Why hadn't he followed Tessa?"What?! Why the hell would Jay stay here?" William questioned, frustration evident in his tone. "If he's really with Tessa, he should be wherever she is. What's going on?"The private investigator leaned back, studying William's distressed expression. "It's not uncommon for people to act in unexpected ways. Perhaps there's more to the story than you know. Maybe he has his reasons for staying."William ran a hand through his hair, feeling a surge of frustration and confusion. "I need to know the truth. Does Jay really know about Tessa? Why hasn't he gone after her?"The investigator nodded understandingly. "You need to hear it from Jay himself. Confront him, get the answers you're looking for. It's the only way to find out the truth."Eager, William decided to face Jay head-on. He needed

    After talking with Jay, the man who was last seen with his wife, William decided to go home. He feels freaking tired. He just wanted to lay himself on bed, thinking about his wife and the kids. But then, he was very surprised to see his mother in their house!What the hell!The atmosphere in the house shifted as his mother, the source of much pain and discord, sat on the terrace, seemingly unperturbed by the tension she had ignited. His eyes bore the weight of unspoken anger as he entered, a silent tempest brewing within him. The way his mother sat, filled with air of entitlement, sat on the terrace as if she owned the place."Wow. I can't believe your audacity, mother," he spat out, his tone laced with a cold fury that mirrored the frosty atmosphere. "Where do you get the courage to come here? I didn't want to see you, to be honest."His mother, seemingly unfazed, chuckled condescendingly. "Oh, William, you can't shut me out! I'm still your mother, and I can visit my son whenever I p

His mother's sudden appearance, her knowledge of Tessa's supposed betrayal, and the persuasive tactics she employed left him questioning the motives behind her actions.He paced through the house, his thoughts a chaotic whirlwind. "How did Mother know about Tessa and this... affair? It's as if she had a front-row seat to the drama. But why? And why reveal it now?" he mumbled to himself, his frustration growing.His mind darted to the private investigator. "Could she have hired someone to follow me? Someone who feeds her information about my life?" The very idea left a sour taste in his mouth. The realization that his own mother might be involved in such a scheme disturbed him deeply.The threads of suspicion didn't end with his mother. His thoughts shifted to Cindy, another player in this twisted drama. "Cindy, why would she be so invested in convincing me that Tessa cheated? It doesn't add up. She's never bee

The atmosphere was tense as they discussed the intricate details of their mission."I'm sure William is going outside today. As usual, he will find a lead about his wife! So we should use that opportunity to get inside his house and rob it, and use any information to get all of his wealth in bank accounts. Those thing and such!" the leader declared, his tone calculated and cold.The members of the group exchanged glances, nodding in agreement with the plan. Each man was eager to execute the task at hand, fueled by the promise of a hefty reward."But how can we make it like Tessa did it?

They showed me CCTV footage, and, damn it, the woman looks like Tessa! But I can't believe she'd do such a thing. What do you have on my mother and Cindy? Are they behind this?"The private investigator took a moment to absorb the information. "I've been looking into your mother and Cindy, but so far, there's no concrete evidence of their involvement in any recent suspicious activity. As for Tessa... I'm sorry to hear that, William. I can't imagine what you're going through."William continued, "I need you to find

    "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.

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

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.
