With a deep inhalation, Tina's gaze brimmed with a mix of revulsion and sympathy. "There are photographs and videos of Mr. Ethan with another woman. They were quite... intimate." She paused, as if pondering the weight of her next statements. "The woman happened to be Mrs.Maddox friend. It seems this was not his first act of infidelity, but what truly crushed her was that it was with her own best friend."Emma's shoulders slumped as she absorbed the revelation. She could almost envision the heartbreak etched on Mrs. Maddox face, feel the sting of uncovering such a deep betrayal. It seemed that father and son shared one similarity - their deceitful ways."Mr. Ethan cheats with his wife's best friend," Emma mused in a slow, contemplative tone. "In retaliation, his wife engages in an affair with his coworker and threatens to divorce him. In a desperate attempt to protect himself and his reputation, he manipulates their son into helping him murder his wife."Tina nodded, the gravity of the

"She did what?""Her husband, Ethan, informed me," Mrs. Kathy revealed, her voice barely above a whisper, "I was completely devastated. I was going to seek a divorce. But then Maria confronted me, confessed everything. She showed me the video. Your father was just... lying there, completely unaware. He was a victim."Emma's hands clenched into fists on her lap, her mind racing with disbelief. "Why didn't you tell me?" she demanded, her voice breaking.Mrs. Kathy's eyes filled with tears, reflecting her profound regret. "I wanted to protect you, and I believed I could handle it on my own.

The taxi arrived at her corporate building, and Emma handed the fare to the driver before alighting gracefully. Striding into the lobby, her heels resounded on the polished marble floor as she made her way to the elevator. With a deep inhale, she closed her eyes as the doors shut, attempting to collect herself.Upon reaching her designated floor, she strode purposefully to her office. Tina sat at her desk, consumed by a pile of files. When she noticed Emma's arrival, concern etched onto her features. "How did it go?" she inquired gently.Emma let out a heavy sigh, sinking into the plush sofa. "He wasn't being unfaithful. Technically, Mrs. Maria forced herself upon him," she stated, her tone devoid of emotion.

Retrieving the worn letters from her bag, she handed them to Tina.Taking the letters, Tina furrowed her brow as she read through them. Emma observed Tina's eyes wid

Chapter One Hundred & Twenty Five

Mr. Ethan's lips curled into a smirk, the expression a fusion of amusement and mockery. "Threats come naturally to you, but execution is not your personality," he taunted, slowly dragging his tongue over his teeth. Emma stepped forward, her gaze locked onto his with unwavering intensity. "If I were you, I wouldn't say that," she warned, her voice low and ominous. Mr. Ethan leaned in, his breath hot on her face. "I had big plans for you, Emma. You were exceptional, talented. I wanted you in my bed and I could have given you everything you wanted. But you messed up by coming after me. Now, you'll pay with your life, and your loved ones will suffer too." With a final sneer, he turned and sauntered away. Emma's hands balled into fists, her nails digging into her palms. "We'll just have to see about that," she called after him, but couldn't ignore what he had just said about coming after the people she loved. Ethan had always be open about his attack on her, but clearly letting her kn

Chapter One Hundred& Twenty Six

The kitchen resembled a destructive whirlwind's aftermath, its disorganized state causing Tina to recoil in fear and shock. Pots and pans littered the ground, cupboards flung open, their contents strewn about in a chaotic display of shattered dinnerware and scattered sustenance. Upon hearing the sound of breaking glass and Tina's gasps, Emma hurried over to investigate. Her breath caught in her throat as she entered the kitchen. The dining table lay on its side, chairs haphazardly overturned. The room was littered with shards of broken glass from shattered plates. Emma's voice came out barely above a whisper, "Why did they not ravage the living room?" Tina merely shrugged, her shoulders tense and her movements jolty as she backed away from the kitchen. Emma watched as Tina's eyes rapidly scanned the damage, before striding towards the bedroom. Emma followed, her heart hammering in her chest. Tina flung open the bedroom door, revealing a scene of complete chaos. Clothes were f

Shocking revelations have surfaced from an undisclosed source, implicating his role in his wife's death six years ago; what was previously deemed a murder has now been declared a suicide by the authorities," the reporter declared, her delivery calm yet laced with intrigue.

Chapter One Hundred& Twenty Eight

Turning away from the window, she took a moment to survey her office. She hadn't really taken the time to appreciate it before. The polished mahogany desk, the sleek black leather chair, meticulously organized shelves. However, there were subtle signs of rearranged items—a misplaced book, a slightly open drawer, and a wastebasket filled with shredded paper. It was clear that Mr. Ethan had visited late at night. He had evidently been busy, removing anything that could implicate him. Emma made a mental note to have the locks changed. She approached the shelf where she had retrieved a folder during her initial few days on the job. Most of the documents were now missing, leaving empty gaps and a thin layer of dust. She ran her fingers over the remaining files, her mind racing with inquiries. Returning to her seat, she glanced at her itinerary for the day. The board meeting was scheduled for later on, and she dreaded it. Letting out a sigh, she turned to her computer and began typing

Chapter One Hundred& Twenty Nine

Emma dusted her nose with a frantic movement, swiftly scanning the room for as though there could be more somewhere in her office. The contents of the nylon weighed heavily on her as she stared at it, the sleek office now feeling increasingly suffocating. The once neatly arranged papers on the desk, the chairs, the walls, the entire office now seemed to be mocking her, almost as if they knew her new found secret. Her footsteps echoed loudly as she hurried towards the door, hastily shutting it and securing the bolt. As her heart raced, she knelt down to conceal the container, her trembling fingers struggling to wrap it up as it was before. In a frenzy, she made her way to the bathroom. She vigorously scrubbed her nose, the icy water meeting her face as she splashed it in the sink. As she stood in front of the mirror, wide-eyed and overwhelmed, her thoughts raced. What was the purpose of hiding a package of cocaine in a microwavable container in the fridge? Who could have done this?

Time passed swiftly, each moment stretching into infinity as aching hunger tormented Emma's stomach and uncertainty tormented her thoughts. At long last, the sound of approaching footsteps shattered the deafening stillness, and Emma stood up with a rush of anticipation coursing through her veins. But as she gazed upon the solemn expressions of Lucas and the bald-headed man in the black suit—the attorney—she instinctively knew that the news would not be in her favor. "What am I being accused of?" Emma's voice was hoarse, her throat parched with fear. "Just tell me already! Stop stalling!" The attorney paused, his gaze shifting to Lucas before finally responding. "Possession of hard substances, involvement in the murders of Sheryl Jones and Damien, and orchestrating your own kidnapping." Emma stumbled backwards, shocked by the impact of these accusations that reverberated in her mind like a cold blast of icy water. "And there is no option for bail," the attorney added, his word
