Trey stood before her, his face beaming with a wide smile. "Trey? Are you okay?" she inquired, puzzled by his expression. Her eyes adjusted to her surroundings, and she realized she was in the hospital. Just then memories of her tripping at the police station came flooding back. She looked up at Tre
Three days later, after Trey lovingly assisted Lisa with her breakfast and ensured she took her medication, he lay next to her and tenderly held her in his arms until she drifted off to sleep.

I want you to be legally mine," Trey confessed, his voice filled with emotion. Lisa looked at him, a quizzical expression on her face. "But you said you didn't sign the divorce papers," she said, her brow furrowed with confusion. "I didn't, but I found out I married someone who does not exist," Trey explained.

"Susan, oh, I'm very sorry, you had to give birth to your son prematurely because of me, I'm sorry.β Lisa said as she sat in a wheelchair in front of Susan's hospital bed."Hey, hey, as you can see I'm fine. Thankfully, my son was not at risk, so he will be in the incubator for just a day. It wasn't your fault; you are also a victim like me," Susan explained with a smile."Thank you. Is the pain bearable?" Lisa asked,"Yes, it almost feels like my old self," Susan replied,"I'm glad. I was hoping to attend your baby shower, though."

"Trey, please, I was forced into doing this," she pleaded, but Trey's expression remained cold and unyielding as he replied, "Don't worry, no one will be able to force you into doing anything anymore." With those words, he pointed the muzzle of the gun at Valerie's forehead. As he was about to pull the trigger, Valerie interrupted frantically, "No! Trey, please, I'm pregnant with his child. He will come after you if you kill me! He is listening to us as we speak." Trey's fierce resolve was unshaken as he smirked and he replied, "I won't fall for your fucking tricks again, t
