Semua Bab FALLING IN LOVE AGAIN: Bab 171 - Bab 180

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED FORTY-SIX (04):—Under the glaring sun, two men trailed towards the depths of a certain mountain. The thick leaves of the tall trees were serving as their shelter against the scorching heat. A very typical day. A day where the two ventures in the wood to alleviate their boredom. “How much longer do we need to walk?” The man that was falling behind can’t help complaining. “We have been walking for half an hour, my feet are dying!”“Relax.” The man ahead laughed. “We would be there soon—”“You have been telling me that for ages.” The man stopped and tugged the collar of his shirt back and forth to somehow give himself comfort from the heat. He didn’t notice that the other stopped walking and was frowning. “Just tell me that we are lost, I won’t get mad—”“Shh!” His companion raised a finger to his lips. “Can you smell that?”You hushed me because you smelled something?! He could hardly believe his ears, he wanted to tease the other, but seeing his rare serious expr

EPILOGUE (02):—The ride towards the mansion where the other family members ended in a flash. Althea stepped out, carrying Titus on her right arm and holding Kai’s hand with her left. “Don’t be nervous,” Tyler whispered in her ears. He was carrying Zach on his arm.“I’m not.” She lied. Her husband laughed, earning her a frustrated groan. “Don’t worry, I’m here.”“Hmm.” Althea nodded, his words worked like magic, suddenly, her heart was like a galloping horse slowly calmed down. She took in the sight of the mansion. It was… Big, ridiculously big. She thought that their house is already big enough, but this is two times bigger. Althea stood there in awe, admiring how it stood on the ground like a massive tree. Persistent against any winds or storms. It was truly admirable.It was already dark, the sun was down the horizon and the lights of the streets were on. Half of the world is slowly entering the night. On the other side of the mansion, the garden perhaps was well lit. She can

EPILOGUE (04):—“That’s enough…” Althea breathlessly said, pushing the beast on top of her. “Goodness, insatiable!”“Sorry,” the man groaned and pulled out. “It was you who initiated.”They paused, trying to catch their breaths. The heat has yet to subside. Moments later, Tyler stood to get something.“Here.” Tyler offered her a glass of water.“Thanks.” Althea immediately drank it, watering her dried throat. When the steam already calmed down, something entered her mind. “Ah, yes. You mentioned that your mother and father got back together?”“Yes.” Tyler was in the middle of wiping her sweat. “What about it?”“Why is it that she didn’t go to the gathering…?”“Ah.” Tyler paused and tried to recall something. “That might be because she’s still guilty about the past.”“I see.” Althea nodded. “She must be lonely alone then.”Tyler suddenly laughed. Althea asked what he was laughing about. “About that, I actually sent her a gift.”“?” —The night when Tyler and Althea had dinner with th

SPECIAL CHAPTER ONE: A Victim Of Jealousy “Please, stop!” Althea sobbed loudly. She struggled and struggled so much but she can’t get away from the chair to which she was tied. “Don’t hurt her anymore!”“AAAHHH!!” Alannah let out a piercing scream as the pliers pulled the last nail she had on her feet. “AAAHHH!!! Stop!!!”Althea was having a hard time breathing watching the bloody scene in front of her. She can’t help but sob again and she twisted to try and break free from the rope. But being starved for a day made her hopelessly weak. She sat there, helplessly as they do inhumane things to her mother.Her mother’s scream echoed in the four corners of the room. It was a numbing scream like a pig getting butchered. Althea’s ears feel like they are bleeding from her cries, she struggled again and wounds started to emerge on her flesh. “Please, let it be me!” Althea begged. Her tears were obstructing her visions. “Let my mother go! I’m the only one you want, right?! She hasn’t even me

Special Chapter One: A Victim of Jealousy (04)“Let me go!” Althea struggled to get her hair away from the painful grasp of the man who discovered her. It was their boss, and she can’t help but panic and ask herself;Isn’t he suppose to be away for days?! “I know what you want to ask,” the man dragged her from hall to hall with her hair. The men who were tardy suddenly stood up straight at the sight of him. Their leader growled at them angrily. “If I haven’t felt that something is wrong, this little mouse could have escaped! Incompetent! Do you want me to send your head flying?!”The others flinched, and they mumbled sorry to him. Their boss ignored them and kicked the door of their room open. Althea struggled once more when her eyes caught a bloody sight. Inside the room, the man who ‘helped’ her was lying on the ground, unconscious with blood gushing out of his head.He’s dead!Althea yelled in her mind. She wasn’t particularly concerned for the man, rather, she was delighted seein
