Chapter 51

AVA The only sound I could focus on was the loud stomping of my feet and my erratic heartbeat that filled my ears accompanied by my heaving breathing.Anger would be a terrible understatement of what I was going through.I was exasperated, filled with fury, disgusted and frustrated at how low my own father would go to just to extort money and sympathy from me.How could he lie so confidently to my face, playing a facade card of regret so as to elicit money from me? What sort of father is that?Now, for the first time, I had actually appeared to be deceitful and cunning with funds left in my care. The satisfied look on Clara's face the moment I got trapped in my father's web of lies and tricks made my stomach churn.Tears glistened in my ears as I approached the front door of my parent's home but I blinked them back, a stern resolve washing across my face.I was going through so much already, I didn't want to add or to complicate things further for me.Without knocking on the door, I

Chapter 52

LIAMI didn’t belong here. That was the thought that looped in my mind every time I opened my eyes to the sterile white walls, the muffled cries from the other patients, and the smell of antiseptic that clung to everything. This was not my life. I wasn’t supposed to be here. But here I was, locked away in that hellhole, treated like I was some kind of monster. How did it come to this? When would this nightmare end?I am not a mad man. Nobody wants to believe me.The memories were blurry, like a bad dream I couldn’t shake off. I remembered getting angry—so angry that I couldn’t think straight. But the details were hazy. It was like I was watching myself from the outside, unable to stop what was happening. It scared me because it reminded me of how I used to be, back when my parents were still alive.The rage, the fits—it all started back then. But I thought I had it under control. I thought I was past that. So why did it come back now? And why in the dining, of all places?It was ha

Chapter 53

AVAThe hospital was colder than I remembered, sterile and unwelcoming. As I walked through the long, winding corridors, I tried to steady my breathing, focusing on the steady click of my heels on the polished floor. I was here to fight for Liam, to prove that he wasn’t the man they were making him out to be. He wasn’t violent. He wasn’t crazy. But as I neared the nurse’s station, a knot of fear twisted in my stomach. What if they didn’t believe me?I approached a young nurse who was busy typing away at her computer. “Excuse me,” I said, trying to keep my voice calm. “I need to speak with the senior doctor. It’s about my husband, Liam.”She looked up, her eyes filled with a mix of curiosity and sympathy. “Dr. Reynolds is in his office. It’s down the hall, third door on the left.”“Thank you,” I said, forcing a smile before I turned away.As I walked down the hall, I could feel my pulse quickening. The walls seemed to close in on me, the fluorescent lights overhead casting harsh shadow

Chapter 54

Davies stormed into his father's study, his footsteps echoing down the hallway as he pushed the heavy wooden door open with a force that rattled the books on the shelves. His face was flushed with anger, and he clenched his fists at his sides as he approached the massive desk where his father, John, sat reviewing some paperwork.John looked up, his expression calm but his eyes sharp. He knew his son well enough to recognize when something was wrong, and Davies's demeanor screamed trouble. “What’s got you in such a state, Davies?” he asked, his voice steady and controlled.Davies didn’t waste any time. “I just got off the phone with the doctor,” he said, his voice tight with frustration. “He informed me that Ava was at the hospital the other day, demanding Liam’s medical report from the night he was sent to the asylum.”John's face darkened, his calm facade quickly fading. “What?” he barked, slamming a fist down on the desk. Papers fluttered to the floor, but neither of them paid any a

Chapter 55

AVAIt had been two days since Uncle John barged into my room, furious, accusing me of God knows what. The confrontation left me shaken, but more than that, it fueled my resolve. Time was running out—every moment Liam spent in that asylum felt like a lifetime, and I couldn’t bear the thought of him being there any longer. I had to find a way to get him out. But how? The walls around him, both literal and metaphorical, were thick with deception and lies. And I was running out of time.I was pacing my room, phone in hand, when I finally decided to call Mark. He was more than just an employee—he was Liam’s personal health care giver, someone who knew Liam well and had been close to him before everything fell apart. If anyone could help me, it was him.“Mark, it’s Ava,” I said as soon as he picked up. “Ava," he greeted, his voice sounding both cautious and concerned. "Any news about Liam? I have been hearing the news concerning his residence at the mental assylum, how is he? When will he

Chapter 56

AVAAs I walked through the mansion, my heart pounded in my chest, the weight of what I was about to do pressing down on me.The mansion was eerily quiet, with only the faint hum of the refrigerator. I tiptoed through the dimly lit hallways, my heart pounding in my chest. I knew I had to be careful—one wrong move and I could blow my cover. I had waited for this moment for days, pretending to go along with the daily routine while secretly planning my search for answers.I headed towards the storage room, where Liam kept some of his older things. It was a place we rarely went, which made it the perfect spot to start my search. My hands trembled slightly as I reached for the door handle, but before I could open it, I heard footsteps approaching. I quickly turned, only to see Davies striding down the hallway toward me.“Ava,” he called out, a sly smile curling his lips. “What brings you to this part of the house? You never come here.”His tone was casual, but there was something unsettlin

Chapter 57

AVA The kitchen was quiet, save for the soft sizzle of eggs in the pan. I was making breakfast for myself, trying to maintain some semblance of normalcy amidst the chaos that had consumed my life since Liam was taken away. The aroma of the eggs was comforting, a small reminder of simpler times when making breakfast with Liam was just part of our morning routine. I was lost in my thoughts when Clara entered the kitchen, her footsteps soft but purposeful. I sensed her presence before she spoke, a subtle shift in the air that made the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end. Clara had a way of doing that—making everything feel colder, sharper, more dangerous. "Still trying to save your mad husband, Ava?" she asked, her voice dripping with mockery. I didn't bother turning around. I kept my eyes on the pan, trying to keep my hands from trembling. Clara thrived on fear, and I wasn’t about to give her the satisfaction of seeing mine. “I don’t know what you’re talking about,” I replie

Chapter 58

AVAI sat on the edge of my bed, my heart filled with worry. I had been this way ever since I discovered those notes locked away in the storage earlier today.Who could I trust to help me interpret these documents? The family doctor was out of the question, given how closely they were tied to Liam’s commitment. I needed someone outside the family’s circle of influence, someone who would be willing to look at the evidence objectively.With my phone in hand, I began scrolling through my contacts, my eyes feeding through every phone number as I tried to find a doctor on my list. Fortunately, I came across Dr. Patel, an old friend of my stepmother's who had retired a few years ago but still kept up with medical research. I remembered my step mother speaking highly of Dr. Patel’s integrity and discretion. If anyone could help me with medical advice, it would be him.I pulled out my phone and quickly sent a message, hoping against hope that Dr. Patel would be willing to meet with me. As

Chapter 59

AVAThe mansion was quiet, with only the faint murmur of conversation coming from down the hall. I moved carefully, staying close to the wall, my ears straining to pick up what was being said. I knew it was wrong to eavesdrop, but I had no choice. John’s voice carried through the partially open door of his study, sharp and insistent, and I could hear the urgency in his tone. My heart pounded in my chest as I pressed myself closer, trying to catch every word.“...can’t risk it any longer. She’s getting too close,” John was saying. “Yes, a more secure facility. Somewhere isolated, where no one will ask questions and she can’t reach him. I want it done by the end of the week.”My breath caught in my throat. They were moving Liam. Somewhere even more secure and isolated? Panic surged through me. If they moved him to another facility, one more locked down and hidden away, I might never see him again. I wouldn’t be able to get any more information, wouldn’t be able to prove he wasn’t violen

Chapter 60

AVAWith each passing day, the weight of my mission grew heavier. The deadline for Liam’s transfer from the asylum was fast approaching, and I felt like I was racing against time, fighting a battle that no one else seemed to understand. I was making a light lunch in the kitchen, trying to distract myself from the anxiety gnawing at my insides. The smell of grilled vegetables and the rhythmic chopping of the knife were the only things keeping me grounded at that moment.As I was lost in my thoughts, Tamy walked into the kitchen. Her presence startled me, and I nearly dropped the knife. She approached me cautiously, her eyes downcast as if she were afraid of intruding on my solitude. "Ava dear," she said softly, "Uncle John is calling for you in his study room."My heart sank. Uncle John rarely summoned me these days unless he had something unpleasant to say or a new way to undermine my efforts. I nodded to Tamy, giving her a weak smile, and wiped my hands on a dish towel. "Thank you, T
