Chapter Sixty One

Justin’s POVI was in a hurry. I’d just spoken to Jace on the phone and he’d just told me the worst news I could ever imagine. I was such a selfish bastard. The whole day I’d been mad, thinking she’d stood me up. I was mad that she’d kept me waiting at the coffee shop for hours, not knowing that she was in the hospital, fighting for her life. “What did Jace say?” Bella asked when I picked up my car keys and headed out of the house. I didn’t reply, I wasn’t in the mood to start that conversation with her.“Are you going somewhere? Did something happen?” She continued, following me outside the house to the garage. “I’ll be right back,” I told her just as I hopped into my car. “Justin—” she was about to say something, her worry etched on her face. But I never waited to hear it because I zoomed off, leaving her behind.I’d just be preparing for bed when I received that call from Jace. “Ayva’s at the hospital, she got into an accident. Can you come now? She’d refused to talk to anyone

Chapter Sixty Two

Ayva’s POV“Ayva, please don’t do anything stupid,” Olivia said with her eyes glistened with tears. My brows furrowed in confusion as I tried to make sense of her words. What the hell was she talking about?“It’s not the end of the world Ayva, you shouldn’t do this. We can help you, I can help you, please Ayva, come down from that place.”Help? I scoffed internally. Deep down, I believed that no one could truly help me. No amount of assistance could bring back my daughter or alleviate the pain I felt. They couldn't possibly understand what it's like to lose years of your life, waking up one day to discover that almost a decade had vanished along with everything you owned.“Give me your hands, please.” Justin pleaded and my gaze shifted from Liv’s to his. The look he had in his eyes was a bit… I don’t know but he looked as if I was deranged and…“No,” I said, gazing up at the dark sky again. The twinkly stars made me feel so at ease, it was so peaceful, so perfect that, I could feel

Chapter Sixty Three

Ayva’s POVI wasn't crazy, maybe just a little depressed with a touch of anxiety, but definitely not mad. However, Olivia seemed to think otherwise. She believed I had gone off the deep end just because I had a habit of checking the locks on the doors multiple times to ensure that we were safe and no one could break in. According to her, it wasn’t normal to do that about twelve times in a minute. She’d also caught me talking to the stars a few times. The first time she witnessed it, she cried, and since then, she'd been trying to stop me from going out at night because she thought it wasn’t "normal" to have conversations with the skies. If only she knew how much better the stars are at holding conversations than humans, she wouldn't judge me like that.And now, I found myself on my way to the psychiatrist's office with Olivia. At first, I was like, "No, there’s no way I’m going there with you." I even got pretty mad at her for thinking that I had started to lose it. She even went as f

Chapter Sixty Four

Justin’s POV"Justin, this isn’t..." I never got to hear what Ayva was trying to say before my fist connected with his jaw. The impact sent him staggering back, almost losing his balance."Stop!" Ayva shrieked. "Justin, stop." Ayva grabbed my arm, trying to hold me back, but I brushed her away and landed another blow to his jaw.I never would've thought that the bastard was still alive. After he'd tried to ruin my life.I clenched the front of his shirt with one hand before deliverin' g another punch to his jaw. Behind me, Olivia and Ayva were screaming, trying to intervene, but I was too consumed by rage to pay them any mind. He made the whole world believe he was dead, and I was ready to send him straight back to hell where he truly belonged.I tackled him to the ground, bones crunching, flesh tearing, and blood dripping. He didn't even try to fight back, which only fueled my anger even more. But as soon as my eyes locked onto his left arm, I froze. There was something strange about

Chapter Sixty Five

Ayva’s POVJustin glanced at Aiden, then turned his skeptical gaze towards me. It was as if he half expected me to burst out laughing, saying it was all a joke and that Zion was actually the one standing before us.I wish I could say that, I really do. I wish it were Zion standing there, so he could pay for all the suffering I went through. But unfortunately, that wasn't the case.I had known that Zion had a twin since we started dating, but I had never actually met him until that day when I accidentally bumped into him on the road. Zion used to talk about how Aiden was the "evil" version of him, but now that I had gotten to know Aiden, I could confidently say that Zion had lied. Aiden was everything I had thought Zion was, and Zion had been the one pretending to be someone he wasn't.Justin started to speak, still visibly confused about the whole situation with Aiden and Zion. "I... I don't know what to say," he stammered. "I mean, I'm sorry for... hitting you. I had no idea about,

Chapter Sixty Six

Ayva’s POV“Best friend?” Amanda asked again, her gaze shifting between me and Olivia. "When did you two meet?" She chuckled lightly. "I mean, I've never seen her before." I could sense a hint of disdain in her voice. "But I missed you so much. I missed my best friend. You have no idea how hurt I was when I heard that you left the city without even telling me." She pouted, and inwardly, I couldn't help but scoff at her expression. It was funny how she never thought of me when I was kidnapped and accused of murder, but suddenly she missed me just because I left the city without informing her. Or rather, because Olivia was standing there, and the mere thought of me having someone else by my side annoyed her."I don't know how long you've known Ayva, but she and I go way back," Amanda said, and in that instant, Olivia locked eyes with me, silently questioning, 'Is this the Amanda you mentioned?'Almost immediately, I felt Olivia attempting to move from behind me. Knowing what Olivia was

Chapter Sixty Seven

Justin’s POVIt was a happy day for me, it was supposed to be because not only did I succeed in securing a huge contract with the Russians that I’d been chasing five years ago, but I also had Frederick, my dad, finally say those words I'd always longed to hear from him, "I'm proud of you, son." But strangely, instead of feeling elated, I just felt this weird numbness. Like, his words didn't have the impact I thought they would. Maybe it was because I'd grown up and was no longer that young guy who desperately craved his dad's approval. Or maybe it was because I was still mad at him for having the audacity to divorce my mom after cheating on her all 32 years of their marriage. Yeah, it's definitely because of that."Or maybe it's because you can't stand seeing Ayva with Aiden." A little voice at the back of my head said. Normally, I'd argue with that voice, but at that moment, I couldn't. How could I, when Aiden looked exactly like the man I wanted to see behind bars? If it weren't

Chapter Sixty Eight

Justin’s POVAfter I finished feeding Bri, I felt too upset to go anywhere. I called Jace to cancel our plans and told him I didn't want to go to the nightclub to celebrate my win anymore. But then he mentioned that he had invited some friends over, especially Ayva, and suddenly I changed my mind about staying in.I hadn't seen Ayva since the incident at the psychiatric hospital, not because I didn't want to, but because I had been busy with work and she had been focused on rebuilding her life.As soon as I walked into the private clubhouse, Jace exclaimed, "Let's get him something strong so the party can get started!" This earned a few oohs from the other people he had invited. He handed me a glass, and just by sniffing it, I knew it was strong. Jace didn't drink, so it seemed like he was trying to live vicariously through me, enjoying the drink he wished he could have but couldn’t because he quit alcohol.I took a large swig of my drink, and the alcohol burned the back of my throat,

Chapter Sixty Nine

Ayva's POVI suddenly woke up from sleep, gasping for breath and sweating profusely. My hand immediately reached for my bedside lamp and switched it on to illuminate the dark room. 3:07 am, I noticed the time displayed on the digital alarm clock. My breath was still heavy as I kept replaying my terrifying nightmare in my mind over and over again. What made it even scarier was the fact that the nightmare was about something that had happened before. It was the day I had that accident, the day my water broke. But unlike the events of that day, I wasn't the one driving my car but rather the masked man who'd taunted me for years. In my nightmare, he'd refused to drive me to the hospital because 'he'd never let me have another man's child' and instead had purposely driven us off a cliff. I died with my unborn baby on the spot which was what jolted me awake. I glanced down at my stomach and traced the long fading scar on it with tears in my eyes. For two years, I thought the scar was a r

Chapter Seventy

Justin’s POV“Who is he? Please tell me.” Ayva repeated. I glanced down at my drink, swirling my cup before meeting her gaze again. How did she remember that? Even I had almost forgotten that I’d said something like that. “I… don’t know who he is.” As much as I felt ashamed to say my next words, I did, admitting that I didn’t know who he was. “That time, I got the wrong person.” The way her face fell made me feel guilty. She looked so disappointed and I felt as if I was to blame. Of course, I was. I should have never said those words then without doing appropriate findings. I should have made sure that I was right about who the masked man was before telling her anything about it. “Oh.” She said, leaning back in her seat and abandoning her drink. “I thought you did. For a second I thought I could finally get rid of my fears.” I wasn’t sure I was supposed to hear the last part of her statement but I did anyway and that only made me feel more guilty. She’d hoped she’d be able to put th
