ANDREA’S POV "It hurts a lot," I kept repeating as he carried me towards the house."This won't do," he said suddenly, setting me down gently on a rock that was the right size for me to rest my leg on."What are you doing?" I asked, startled, as he took hold of my leg."I'm trying to reset the dislocated bone," he explained. "It's out of place, which is why it hurts so much.""Don't do it! It's going to hurt me a lot!" I yelled as he began to manipulate my dislocated bone.But then, in an instant, the excruciating pain vanished."All I'm left with is a sprain," I realized."How's that?" he asked. "Does it still hurt?""Not that much, but it still hurts a bit," I replied. "How did you do that?"He smiled. "Just a few techniques I know.""Come on, let me carry you to the mansion," he said, not waiting for my response. He lifted me into his arms once again."Thanks," I whispered softly."I said thank you," I said, recalling his earlier words about Cade as he rushed to my side. "You help

As I leaned in, my lips brushed against Emily's softly. She stirred, murmuring, "Leave me alone, you buzzing bee." I pulled back, a smile spreading across my face. Little did she know, she talked in her sleep. I gently adjusted the covers around her, ensuring she was comfortable.Standing by the window, I couldn't shake off the thought: Why did I just kiss Emily? She was only a friend, and more importantly, the woman I'd hired to help convince my parents that I'd be better off without... him. My motivations were clear, but my actions had just blurred the lines.As I stood there, lost in thought, the cool night air filled my lungs, but it did little to ease the ache in my chest. Memories of David and his father, once welcome and cherished, now felt tainted. I recalled the day I met David, how he had effortlessly slipped into my life, becoming the brother I never had. We shared laughter, adventures, and secrets.But it all changed when I discovered his true intentions. The pain of his b

I watched, perplexed, as Emily limped towards David, who still looked surprised by our presence in the kitchen. "It's you!" she exclaimed, beaming at him. "I didn't get a chance to thank you properly for yesterday." David's gaze drifted to me, his expression unreadable. "Oh, no need to thank me, I just did what anyone would do." Emily's smile never wavered. "I doubt that," she said, her voice laced with amusement. "You don't exactly look like the good Samaritan type." David's eyes narrowed slightly, his attention still split between Emily and me. The air was thick with tension. "Ahhhhhhh... so what do I look like?" David asked, his lips curling into a smile. "You look more like someone who helps others to alleviate their own guilt," Emily replied, her words dripping with playful sarcasm. David's smile broadened. "But I'm glad you decided to help me, twice at that. Let me repay you somehow. I'm making breakfast, would you like some?" Emily offered. David's eyes flicked to me, h

“Entered the room, still pondering why Cade had given me his robe while he walked half-naked. His chiseled physique distracted me, stirring unfamiliar feelings. I hastily removed the robe and tossed it back at him. "You're the one who shouldn't be walking around half-dressed," I said, trying to sound calm. Cade raised an eyebrow. "You shouldn't wear that nightgown. It will attract unwanted attention." I frowned, defensive. "This has been my nightwear for years." Cade's gaze lingered on me, his expression softening. "Have you been walking around in that thin nightgown?" Cade asked, his brow furrowed with concern. "Of course, it's all I have," I replied, feeling a flush rise to my cheeks. "I've been focused on saving money, not spending it on myself or clothes. Every penny counted." Cade's gaze swept over my wardrobe, his expression disapproving. "No wonder your clothes look worn out. You deserve better than hand-me-downs and second-hand finds." I bristled, defensive, protectiv

I went out of the room and saw Cade picking out some beautiful clothes."This will definitely suit her." he said as he picked more "I must say that this is the first time I'm seeing a man pleased to buy his wife clothes." Veronica said to Cade."Of course a man should be pleased that he is getting some new clothes for his wife" He retorted with a smirk on his face."Not everyone sir, you are different and I hope you will keep on treating your wife like with this great care" Veronica said Cade continued selecting garments, his eyes shining with excitement."Is this being caring?" he asked, holding up a delicate blouse."Of course, it is," Veronica replied, smiling.Watching them, I reconsidered my decision.We'd promised to start anew. Confronting Cade now would only stir up trouble."And, Veronica, do you know a small gift I could get her?" Cade asked."For your wife?" Veronica inquired."Yes, I haven't really gotten her a gift since we married," Cade admitted.His words touched my

EMILY’S POV "And what solution might you have conjured up?" Cade's mother asked, her tone laced with sarcasm."Don't say it, Emily!" Cade warned, his eyes flashing with concern."Let her talk, Cade," his father intervened, his voice calm and encouraging.I took a deep breath. "The only way I can think of is by bringing back the resort."Cade's mother burst into laughter, her eyes mocking. "This must be a joke, right? The resort has been shut down for years. Do you know how much it will cost us to revive it?"Her ridicule stung, but I stood firm. "I understand the costs, but consider the benefits. Reviving the resort can create jobs, stimulate the economy, and generate revenue to rescue the company."Cade's mother's laughter faded, replaced by a scathing gaze. "You have no idea what you're talking about. It's not just about money; it's about logistics, permits, and—""I've researched the feasibility," I interrupted, my confidence growing. "With careful planning and in

EMILY’S POV A WEEK LATERAs I settled into the patio, the warm sunlight danced across my face, a gentle reminder of the new beginnings unfolding before me. The resort, once a distant dream, was now a vibrant reality, its transformation underway. Just one week into the renovation, the mansion was abuzz with activity – contractors, designers, and workers flowing in and out, each contributing to the rebirth.Among the chaos, I've met a handful of remarkable individuals, their kindness and expertise a balm to my frazzled nerves. From Emma, the designer with an artist's eye, to Jack, the contractor with a heart of gold, each person has brought a unique energy to the project.As I sat amidst the whirlwind of progress, I felt pride and accomplishment swell within me.

I stood frozen, witnessing the intimate moment between Cade and Stephanie. The longer I watched, the deeper the ache within me grew. Tears threatened to spill as I acknowledged the truth: I couldn't feel this hurt if I didn't harbor feelings for Cade.The possibility unsettled me. Could I truly be in love with him? The thought sent my mind reeling.But reason intervened, tempering my emotions. I couldn't be in love with a man who saw me as a convenience, a temporary arrangement. His arms, now wrapped around Stephanie, drove home the reality.I turned to leave, eager to escape the painful scene before they spotted me. The quiet tears I'd held back began to fall as I walked away."How can I love someone who doesn't truly want me?" I whispered to myself, the words echoing through my hollow heart.As I strolled through the garden, my mind wandered to the impending end of our arrangement. Soon, I'd return to the city, and our deal would dissolve. Cade would likely forget me, surrounded by

I stood at the balcony, lost in thought, as the memories of Emily's reaction flooded my mind. She had always looked at me with love and adoration, but when she remembered the truth, her expression transformed into one of hatred and disgust.That was why I had kept the secret hidden for so long. I had been terrified that if she found out, she would hate me, and I couldn't bear the thought of losing her. But now that she knew, I was consumed by the fear that she would never forgive me.If she wakes up, she'll hate me, I thought, my mind racing with dread. She might even ask for a divorce. The thought sent a chill down my spine.Just then, David's voice cut through my thoughts, his tone dripping with malice. "Thinking about Emily, or are you thinking about what you did to her?" he taunted, his eyes glinting with amusement as he walked towards me."Don't start with me, I'm not in the mood for your nonsense," I warned, my patience wearing thin.But David just smirked, his eyes glinting wit

EMILY’S POV (TEN YEARS AGO)I walked back into the kitchen, my heart still racing from what I had just overheard. My mom was finishing her food, a forced smile on her face as she caught my eye. I returned the smile, trying to reassure her, but I knew she was scared. We both were.My uncle and his family owned the island, and everyone here seemed to be under their control. It was as if they were above the law. I knew that no one would dare to cross them, especially not the police.My mom's voice broke the silence. "Should we just go back to the States?" she asked, her eyes searching mine for answers.I hesitated, knowing that we had nowhere to go. My mom had always said that we couldn't go back, that we had to make a new life for ourselves here.But now, she was willing to risk everything to get us out of this place. "But we have nowhere to go, you always said that to me," I reminded her.My mom's expression turned determined. "I'll figure something out, let's just

EMILY’S POV (TEN YEARS AGO) ( The night of the festival)I lay on the bed, feeling defiled and dirty. The night that was supposed to be special had turned into a nightmare. I couldn't believe what had just happened.Cade's voice cut through my thoughts, making me feel even more wretched. "I hope you're using protection, cause I never used one," he said, his tone casual as he got dressed.I felt a wave of shame wash over me. How could he be so nonchalant about what we had just done? "Hey, it's not something you should get worked up over," he said, his eyes glinting with a mixture of amusement and malice. "You wanted it just as much as I did."His words were like a slap in the face, making me hate myself even more. I felt like I was drowning in a sea of shame and regret.But then Cade's expression turned ugly, his eyes flashing with anger. "Fine, then, since you've decided to act immature about it, I'll also do the same," he spat. "Don't get it wrong, this is for get

I stood frozen, my eyes fixed on Emily as she crouched on the floor, her body shaking with sobs. "You rapist, stay away from me!" she yelled, her voice hoarse from crying.I felt like I'd been punched in the gut. How did she find out? How did she know what happened? I thought, my mind reeling with questions.I took a step forward, my hands outstretched. "Emily, I can explain," I said, desperate to justify myself somehow.But Emily's words cut through my defenses like a knife. "I had begged you to stop, I had asked you to stop, but you didn't listen," she said, her voice cracking with emotion.I felt a wave of shame wash over me. I had never meant to hurt her, but I had. And now, I had to face the consequences."Emily, please listen to me, I beg you," I said, my voice shaking with regret.But Emily just shook her head, her eyes streaming with tears. "Don't come near me, please," she begged, her voice barely above a whisper.I knew that she needed time to cool off, to process her emotio

EMILY’S POV I tried to pull out of David's arms, but he held me back, his grip tight. "I thought you had left for good," he said, his voice filled with emotion as he held me tight.I tried to explain, but David cut me off. "Why did you leave without saying a thing?" he asked, his eyes searching mine as he let go of me to stare at me.I hesitated, unsure of how to respond. "I had to be..." I started to say, but David didn't let me finish."Oh my!" I exclaimed, startled, as he pulled me into his arms again."I don't want to know your reason," David said, his voice filled with relief. "I'm just glad that you're back."I pushed him away, feeling a sense of unease. Why was David so glad that I was back? What did he know that I didn't?"I'll head to my room now?" I said, trying to sound casual.But David's response was unexpected. "Can't you see it?" he said suddenly, his eyes wide with excitement.I felt a surge of confusion. "See what?" I asked, my heart pounding with anticipation.David

EMILY’S POV I sat in stunned silence, my mind reeling with the weight of my discovery. I had always sensed that something was off, a nagging feeling that had haunted me for as long as I could remember. And now, I had finally uncovered the truth.But as I gazed blankly into space, I couldn't help but wonder if I had made a terrible mistake. Would it have been better to remain in the dark, to never have sought out the truth? I thought about how blissfully ignorant I had been just days before, and a pang of regret shot through me."If only I could go back," I whispered to myself, my voice barely audible. "If only I could erase the memories of the past three days." But it was too late now. The truth was out, and I was left to grapple with the devastating consequences. (FLASH BACK ) THREE DAYS AGOAs I sipped the welcome champagne, its sweet, fizzy taste danced on my tongue. But it wasn't long before the exhaustion of the previous day's events caught up wi

CADE’S POV "This is my picture from when I was graduating college," Emily said, a nostalgic smile on her face as she flipped through the pages of the family album.As we continued to browse through the album, a particular photo caught my eye. "And what about this?" I asked, pointing to a picture of Emily surrounded by a group of guys at the beach.Emily's eyes sparkled with amusement. "Oh, this was my first project after finishing my advertising course," she explained.My curiosity was piqued. "What? Your first project? What sort of project would a girl be doing amongst all these guys?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.Emily chuckled. "I had to help them advertise their beach. This is a photo taken when we were making the advert," she said, her eyes shining with memories of the experience."I don't like this at all," I said, my eyes narrowing as I gazed at the photo. "They're all male. Which one of them hit on you?" I asked, feeling a pang of jealousy.Emily burst out laughing, her eyes

"Please, I don't want her finding out like this," I begged softly, my voice cracking with desperation. "I want her to know the truth from me. Please, don't tell her the truth yet."Mrs. Wilburn's expression was incredulous, her eyes blazing with anger. "Isn't this being more shameless?" she spat. "You don't want her to know the sort of bastard you are? You want her to keep on loving the bastard who raped her?"Her husband placed a calming hand on her arm. "Honey, take it easy," he said, his voice soothing.But Mrs. Wilburn shook him off, her anger and pain boiling over. "For years, I had to see that struggle to be back to normal," she said, her voice trembling. "The nightmares, the flashbacks, the fear... and now you're asking me to keep the truth from her again?""Racheal was just a happy girl, remember?" Mrs. Wilburn's voice trembled with emotion, her eyes welling up with tears. "She and her mom would light up any room they entered, their smiles infectious and bright. But after she

CADE’S POV As the air hostess's voice came over the speakers, I felt a mix of relief and anxiety. "Okay, sir, enjoy your flight," she said, her tone cheerful and upbeat. But I couldn't shake off the feeling of unease that had been building up inside me since we left the mansion.The routine checks and procedures before boarding the plane had been exhausting, but it was Emily's silence that was really worrying me. She hadn't spoken to me since we left the mansion, and every time I tried to talk to her, she would only respond with a monosyllabic "yes" or "no".I couldn't help but think that something was wrong. Ever since her parents' call, Emily had been acting strange. She seemed distant, preoccupied, and I couldn't help but wonder what was going on in her mind.As I pondered the reason behind Emily's silence, I couldn't shake off the feeling that it was my fault. Had I been too abrupt in asking her to leave the resort and come with me to the city? The resort held a special place in
