Chapter 210: The mother instinct

PRESENTIvy's eyes widened in shock and confusion. "Why did Jeremy follow you into your room like that?" she asked, but Irene just chuckled bitterly, her eyes glinting with a mix of sadness and amusement."You're intrigued, aren't you?" she asked, brushing off Ivy's question as she slumped back on the sofa. "You know it's your fault. If you hadn't storm off from the house, maybe, just maybe, mother would still be alive."Ivy's confusion deepened as she could sense the pain and resentment in Irene's voice. "How could you say that, Irene?" Ivy said, feeling a knot form in her stomach as she realized that Irene was once again blaming her for their mother's death. Yeah, she always does, ever since her death, and she couldn't quite grasp how it was her fault.Ivy was well aware that her words had hurt her mother, and she felt guilty for that, but Irene kept rubbing it in her face as if she wanted Ivy to feel responsible for their mother's passing. Ivy's mind flashed back to that fateful da

Chapter 211: Situation out of control

The sound of Jeremy's body crashing to the floor reverberated throughout the whole room, making Irene's eyes dilate in both relief and shock. Irene could hear her mother's heavy breathing behind her, and she turned around. Her eyes widened further when she met the gruesome sight. "M... Mother?" she stuttered, slowly climbing to her feet as her gaze wandered over the bloody Jeremy. There was a deep gash in Jeremy's side, her mind struggling to process what she was seeing. She felt a wave of nausea wash over her, and her knees buckled, but she managed to stay upright. The sound of her mother's labored breathing grew louder, and Irene's gaze snapped back to Margaret, her face etched with concern. "Mother... Mother, are you okay?" Irene asked quickly, rushing off to Margaret's side. Margaret enveloped Irene in a tight embrace, her breathing steadying as she looked away from Jeremy, whose hands were sliding to the side of his abdomen, squirming in pain. Irene held her mother tight

Chapter 212:The truth

"D-Dad, please calm down—" Irene stuttered, her voice trembling. She attempted to plead again, but Steve abruptly cut her off. "Calm down? YOU WANT ME TO CALM DOWN!" he hollered, his breath shuddering with rage. Irene and Margaret stepped back as Steve's fury seemed to fill the entire room. Irene's eyes welled up with tears as she tried to reason with him again. "D-Dad, please... Jeremy needs help." As much as she hated to be concerned for Jeremy after what he had done, she had to divert Steven's attention to the dire situation. "We need to take him to the hospital." Steve's face twisted in anguish, and for a moment, Irene thought she saw a glimmer of the father she knew. He looked down at Jeremy's limp body, and his expression faltered. With a Herculean effort, Steve seemed to rein in his temper. "Call... call an ambulance," he muttered, his voice barely above a whisper. Irene nodded hastily, grabbing her phone to dial 911. As she spoke to the operator, Steve gently lifted

Ivy's eyes welled up with tears as she struggled to process the horrific truth that Irene had just spilled. She felt as if her breath had been knocked out of her. She stumbled backward, as if trying to escape the reality of her father's actions. "So that's what happened. Is that the truth?" Ivy whispered, her voice cracking with emotion. She looked at Irene, her eyes pleading for reassurance that this was all just a terrible nightmare. But Irene's somber expression only confirmed the worst.

"That your precious father gripped your mother's throat and slammed her against the wall," Irene finished, her voice cracking with emotion. "He took the life of the one person who loved and cared for him the most, and then he had the audacity to pretend like nothing happen

Zack's eyes were fixed on the phone screen, his brow furrowed in concern. He had been trying to reach Ivy for hours, but she wasn't picking up his calls. The relentless tapping of the driver's hand on the steering wheel was starting to get on his nerves."Can you please stop that?" Zack spat, his voice tinged with frustration.The driver's eyes flicked to the rearview mirror. "Sorry, sir, just a habit," he muttered, his hand stilled on the wheel.Zack's gaze drifted back to the phone screen, his mind racing with worry. He tried calling Ivy again, his fingers drumming impatiently on the armrest as the call went straight to voicemail. A cold dread seeped into his veins. Why wasn't she answering? It had been over two hours since she left.

"Go closer to the d

Chapter 215: Request for solitude

"Where could she have gone?" Zack muttered under his breath, his voice laced with frustration and fear."Xavier!" he called, massaging his temples. To be honest, he was lost on where to find Ivy."Sir." Xavier raced down the stairs, his movements hurried as he could sense something was off with his master."Was Ivy here?" Zack asked, his eyes wide with hope, but Xavier's response shattered it to pieces.He massaged his temples again, thinking just maybe... maybe she's okay, maybe she's just ignoring me, maybe she's... no, no, no, think, Zack, think... where would she go? Who would she turn to? Irene? No, she was just with Irene, and Irene said she left... left where? Left to go where? His mind was a jumbled mess, thoughts racing in every direction, none of them making sense... Ivy, where are you?Suddenly, his eyes flashed with realization. Judy! Her aunt Judy! Ivy had always been close to her aunt, and it seemed Judy was one of the few people who truly understood her, even though he

Chapter 216: Nightmare

Fifteen-year-old Ivy's feet wobbled, drained from all the running, as she pushed through the door of her home. She panted heavily, catching her breath and meeting the stunned silence in the house.It was odd; she had expected to see her mother standing in the doorway, ready to scold her for running off like that, or perhaps to be welcomed by her sister's taunts, but there was nothing.She raised her head only to find the living room empty."Mum? Irene?" she called, scanning the room, but then someone else emerged—someone she didn't expect to see."Dad? Dad!" She kicked off her shoes and enveloped him in a tight embrace. "I've been looking for you, Dad. Where were you?"Steve pulled away, his expression somber. "I, um..." he began, his gaze on Ivy's face faltering. Ivy noticed the way his voice quaked; her eyes scanned his face, and she caught his hand trembling at his side."Dad, why the face?" Ivy asked, concern etched on her face.Steve looked away without responding; his eyes seeme

Chapter 217: Justice

Irene stepped into her house, closing the door behind her as if trying to shut out the world. She stood still for a moment, her eyes scanning the familiar surroundings as if seeing them for the first time.Everything around felt hollow. If she knew recollection of the past would cause her this emptiness, she wouldn't have done it. Now she felt like she had traveled back to the past experiences she wanted to shut out for so long."Hey, why are you back so late? It's midnight," Dave sprang up from the couch, but then he noticed the distant look in Irene's eyes. "Irene?"Irene didn't respond. She just walked past him, her feet carrying her on autopilot to the bedroom. Dave's eyes followed her, concern etched on his face."Irene, what's wrong?" he asked, getting up from the couch to follow her.Irene stopped in front of the bedroom door, her hand on the doorknob. She turned to face Dave, her eyes empty and haunted."Nothing," she said flatly, "just tired."With that, she slammed the door

Chapter 218: He should have died

Ivy tossed and turned relentlessly in her bed, her eyes fluttering open to a scene that felt all too real. She was standing in her living room, but it wasn't the warm and cozy space she knew. It was cold and tense, with police officers looming over her dad."Mr. Steve, I'm afraid with the evidence we found, we need to take you in for questioning," one of the officers said, his voice firm but polite.Steve's face was pale with shock, his eyes wide with fear. "What evidence?" he demanded, his voice trembling.The officer hesitated, his expression unreadable. "We can't disclose that right now. But we do have enough to arrest you on suspicion of murder."Steve repeated, his voice shaking, "Murder? No... I didn't kill anyone."The officer's expression remained stern. "Steve, please turn around and put your hands behind your back. You're under arrest."Ivy watched in horror as the officers handcuffed her dad and led him away. She tried to scream, but her voice was frozen in her throat.She

The truth behind her emotions seemed to be consuming her.Ivy's sobs slowly began to subside, and she pulled back from Zack, her eyes red and puffy from crying. She looked up at him, and for a moment, their eyes locked in a silent understanding."Ivy," Zack whispered, his voice barely audible. "I'm sorry about your mom. Irene told me everything."Ivy's eyes searched Zack's face for a moment before she wiped her tears. "She did?"Zack nodded and took her hands in his, his eyes locked on hers. "Whatever happened was devastating, and I'm extremely worried about you." He hesitated
