Chapter 55Adrian stopped in his tracks, his hand on the doorknob, and turned back to his father with a feigned look of confusion. "No, I have no idea why Karen left so suddenly," he lied, trying to maintain a innocent tone.His father raised an eyebrow, his eyes narrowing slightly. "Are you sure? You two were quite close, weren't you?"Adrian shrugged, trying to appear nonchalant. "Yeah, we were friends, but I had no idea she was planning on leaving. Maybe she just needed a change of scenery or something."His father nodded, seeming to accept Adrian's explanation, but Adrian could tell he was still suspicious. Adrian smiled to himself as he left the study, feeling proud of himself for pulling off the lie so easily.But little did his father know, Adrian had been secretly manipulating Karen, using his charm and deceit to turn her against Evan and Bella, fueling her anger and resentment towards them. He had been playing a long game, waiting for the perfect moment to strike and destroy

"Jason, what are you doing here?" she asked, trying to hide her surprise.Jason smiled and held up the bag. "I brought some snacks. I know you've been having some late-night cravings lately, and I wanted to make sure you had some stuff on hand."Bella's eyes softened as she looked at the bag. "Oh, Jason. That's so sweet of you. How did you know?"Jason shrugged. "I remember you mentioning it a while back, and I figured it was only getting worse with the pregnancy. So, I picked up some stuff I thought you might like."Bella's face lit up with a smile. "You're a lifesaver, Jason. I was just about to go raid the fridge."Jason chuckled. "I figured as much. That's why I brought some of your favorites."Bella's eyes welled up with tears as she looked at the bag. "Thank you, Jason. This means so much to me."Jason's face softened as he saw the tears in h

Evan's eyes narrowed. "Logically? You call threatening the mother of my child logical? I thought you would fix things between us; when you said you were with me, I felt relief, and now I am disgusted by your action, father." His father stood up in surprise and said, "Why is that woman so important to you?"Evan's voice was laced with venom. "How dare you ask that? You're the one who's been trying to control my life and manipulate me into doing what you want. And now you're questioning why Bella is important to me?"His father took a step back, his eyes widening in surprise. "Evan, calm down. I just want to understand why you're so invested in this woman."Evan's anger boiled over. "Invested? You think I'm invested in her? I love her, father. I love her and my child, and I won't let you or anyone else hurt them."His father's face turned red with anger. "You're just like your mother," he spat. "Always so emotional and weak."Evan's eyes flashed with anger. "Don't you dare mention my mot

Evan's eyes widened in shock as he stared at Adrian, his mind struggling to process what he was seeing. "Adrian? But...but you're supposed to be dead!"Adrian's smile was like a knife twisting in Evan's heart. "Ah, yes. Well, I guess I'm a bit of a miracle worker, aren't I?"Evan's gaze snapped back to his father, his eyes blazing with accusation. "What's going on, Father? What's going on?"Timothy's eyes darted nervously between Evan and Adrian. "Evan, I can explain."But Evan wasn't having it. He took a step back, his eyes flashing with anger. "Explain? You're going to explain why my so called evil younger brother is standing in front of me, alive and well, after you told me he was dead?"Adrian's chuckle was like a spark to gasoline, igniting Evan's fury. "Oh, this is going to be good," Adrian said, his eyes glinting with malice. "Do tell, father, explain why you lied to your own son."Evan's fists clenched, his body trembling with rage."Father, why did you lie to me that he is de

As Adrian pulled the trigger, Timothy saw the horror unfold before his eyes. He knew he had to act fast to save his son. Without hesitation, he pushed Evan out of the way and stepped in front of him, taking the bullet himself."Evan, get down!" Timothy yelled, his voice echoing through the room.Evan's eyes widened in shock as he watched his father take the bullet meant for him. He felt a surge of fear and adrenaline as he realized what his father had just done."Father, no!" Evan screamed, rushing to his father's side as he fell to the ground.Timothy's eyes locked onto Evan's, and he smiled weakly. "I had to save you, son," he whispered. "I couldn't let you die."Evan's tears fell onto his father's face as he held him close. "Why did you do that, Father?" he asked, his voice shaking with emotion.Timothy's voice was weak, but his words were filled with conviction. "Because I love you, Evan. I couldn't let anything happen to you."As the reality of the situation set in, Evan's grief
