Chapter 31: I don’t like this feeling

Steven’s Point of ViewAs I went past Harvey, I made my way into the room he had just been in and didn’t spare any glance toward him again. He might have assumed I was on my way to see Summer, since her room was just a few steps away from Amby's.The moment I set foot in the room, the deafening sound of silence filled the air. The only noises that could be heard in the room were the hum of the air conditioning and the ticking of the clock.As soon as I stride, it was apparent that she had a strong sense of security when she struggled to open her eyes and did her best to look in my direction.Moving closer to her, I towered over her, taking in her delicate and unblemished face.Her beauty is so cunning and sly that it has the power to deceive any individual. Who can resist the temptation of a woman who is pretending to be a goddess yet is truly a wicked individual underneath?With a flutter of her eyelashes, she finally opened her eyes. The paleness of her skin did not detract from her

Chapter 32: I'm married

Summer’s Point of ViewI was pressing my fingers into my chest, feeling the ache, when the door opened. Had I thought it was Steven, I would have pretended to be asleep, but I heard Harvey’s and the Doctor’s voices.I set my phone back on the sidetable and paid attention to the two individuals. Harvey nod at me as the doctor started asking question. “Good morning, Missus Carter. How is your feeling now?”“I’m a little better now. Although my body is still in quite dire,” I answered hoarsely.As he did another checkup, he scribbled notes on the paper in his hand. After a few minutes of examination, he concluded, “Missus Carter, you were pushed to your limits this time. Your body is still feeling weak, so you need to recuperate with some rest. You must be more cautious with your health this time after you recently underwent a car accident and then almost drowned.”I sighed and laid my head on the pillow. To be honest, I couldn’t recall the last time I closed my eyes without feeling the

Chapter 33: Get out

Summer’s Point of ViewShe grinned at me; her nails pricking my skin as her hand rose to deliver a slap to my cheek. Despite being in a weakened condition, I could read her movements and was able to force her back, successfully blocking her attempt to hit me.As a result, she fell to the floor, eyes wide in surprise, while I felt the world around me become a blur. Fortunately, the solid metal of the hospital bed's railing provided support for my arm. I had assumed Hailey had finished her assault on me. However, I was mistaken when I saw her stand up again.“See? Is that the action of the person who is not feeling well? Where do you get your strength from?!” she shouted.Before I knew it, she had stepped in front of me, wanting to hit me again, but before she could, I prevented her wrist.The moment my hand grasped hers, I could feel the warmth of my fever radiating from my body. Shit! Could the villains in my life pause their destruction and let me regain my footing? Why are they so e

Chapter 34: Will that make you all happy?

Summer's Point of ViewA wave of anger was surging through me, and I could feel my muscles quaking with it. I was so exhausted that the fever was taking over my body, radiating a dull, painful ache. In contrast to what I had ordered, none of them budged, and Hailey directed her attention to me with a triumphant grin. Since neither Steven nor Amby had witnessed that cunning smile, they were not suspicious of her — oh; it was not they would believe me either.“Did your tongue's logic wither away? Without a single reasonable argument, you are forcing us to leave now?” She took two steps towards me and because she was wearing heels, she already towered over me. She seemed to judge me as she raised her eyebrow and crossed her arms across her chest. “You were so daring earlier, weren't you? Where did your courage go? Where is the eloquent Summer Ramey, whose words flow so gracefully?”I took a deep breath and closed my eyes, feeling the air rush past my lips as I exhaled. My knuckles turne

Chapter 35: Hypocrites

Amby’s Point of ViewMistress, you say? You were wrong, Summer. How could I be this man’s mistress when I couldn’t even read him? I don’t know what’s going on in his mind. I do not know who he really is underneath the surface.I peered into his stoic face, attempting to decipher what emotions were stirring within him. Whilst I remained transfixed upon him, I formed one assessment of the situation that had happened. Even though Summer's action was too violent, he remained calm and did not get angry. There was no sign of blame on his face, despite her wife causing why he was rushing me to the emergency room and why Hailey had fallen unconscious now.How unfair…******Summer’s Point of ViewAs my eyes were closed tight, I heard the door creak open and the sound of glass clink. All it implied was the room being tidied up and cleaned. When will this drama end? All I hoped was Celine to be out of jail, so why did it come down into this?A frown tugged at my face as I heard the cleaner clo

Chapter 36: Mistake

Summer's Point of View“Summer, not defending yourself leads me to believe that all your actions were done on purpose.” I could hear the strain in Steven's voice, his patience with me starting to wear thin."Whatever you say," I replied.The sound of his frustrated sighs filled the air as I looked around the room, taking in the sterile smell of the hospital and the bright fluorescent lights overhead. And when I glanced down, he met my eyes. Our gazes locked onto each that it felt like the world around us had faded into the background, leaving only the two of us in this moment, ready to pounce on each other. It sounded so romantic but it was not. Both of us had grown weary of dealing with each other’s frustrating behavior. I was fed up with having to repeat myself to him, only for him to never believe a word I said, and leave me with a bitterness of disappointment in my mouth.The room was quiet except for the sound of our breathing and t

Chapter 37: Changing of statement

Summer's Point of ViewThe atmosphere was becoming more and more difficult to handle and it was causing me to lose my breath. With neither side willing to back down, I was uncertain how to alleviate the mounting tension. “Mister Turner, there’s no need for us to reach that point. Let me assure you we had no intentions of hurting Summer. Moreover, we don’t even hold her responsible for the incident. According to Hailey, she didn’t push her; Summer jumped into the pool on her own—”Harvey interrupted Amby, “And what person in their right mind would jump into a pool in freezing water in this weather?” I sensed Harvey’s sincerity in wanting to help me out.“I understand your concern for Summer, but it’s important to consider that you may not have all the facts,” Amby said in a gentle tone. She let out a sigh, running out of patience. “Prior to her accident, I had my accident. Steven planned to help me, but when she realized he was going to leave, she jumped into the pool in a desperate at

Chapter 38: Help her

Summer’s Point of View“Tell them the truth, Summer! Don’t blame me for your irrationality! You should be grateful that I didn’t contact the police sooner after you nearly murdered me." Her voice was so loud that my eardrums nearly ruptured. "Just wait, and I’ll see to it that you go to jail just like your secretary!”I raised my feet again, adjusted my pillow, and rested my back completely. “Whether or not you acknowledge it, you don't have any power to decide the truth. Like what my husband said when Celine was accused of, the court doesn’t accept mere assumptions.”Just before I shut my eyes, I remembered to suggest, “It would be useful for you to get a copy of the surveillance camera video from the backyard. Handing over the footage to the police is the only way to determine whether Hailey will have to face jail time or not.”The silence was so profound it felt like a physical presence, wrapping the room in its embrace. However, I was not done yet. I jogged my memory of something

Chapter 39: I knew it

Summer’s Point of ViewThe dimly lit room was filled with a light, flowery scent that tickled my nose. I could hear the faint sound of a distant clock ticking away the seconds. My body felt stiff and sore, as if I had been laying here for hours.Feeling an uncomfortable sensation, I let out a small grunt and kept shifting on my bed in discomfort. The battle between the heat and the cold in my body was making it difficult for me to breathe. This month had been incredibly stressful for my body. I fear that if another accident were to occur, it could be fatal.As the door let out a soft creak, I gradually pried open my heavy eyelids. As soon as I fully opened it, my eyes were immediately drawn to a towering figure.It was Steven.As he approached, his footsteps echoed in the muted room. Leaning in closer, he asked, “How are you feeling?”The overpowering scent of his cologne filled my senses, a strong yet sweet mix that made me feel lightheaded. As he raised his hand to touch me, I insti

Chapter 40: A Trade and Deal

Summer's Point of View “I’m curious what you plan to do with Hailey—”“What do you expect me to do to her?!” I exclaimed and pointed to the door, as if Hailey was standing there. “You can’t expect me to treat her like I’m some kind of saint. That damn girl almost killed me!”“Are you saying you will not let her off?”“Once all the evidence is revealed, I will ensure that she will be held accountable and cannot escape justice. I can’t just let her go. She made a mess of my life and Celine’s. It’s not fair.” I couldn’t help but feel a deep loathing towards everything that had been involved. “Maybe it’s time for her to face the consequences of her actions and see what it’s like to taste her own medicine.”He nodded, his eyes locking onto mine with a piercing intensity that made me feel like he was peering into my soul. As he held my gaze, I couldn’t help but feel a shiver run down my spine, as if he had touched me with an icy finger. After a brief pause, he spoke again. “If I were to as
