“You little bitch! If you ever pull a stunt like this again, I swear I will kill you!” Adeline sobbed, clinging tightly to her best friend-slash-her sister. “And how dare you leave without seeing me first? Now your husband is more important than me?”Anna let out a soft laugh. “Well, he is not.”“He better not be,” Adeline huffed, hugging her even tighter. “How are you? Are you okay?”Anna nodded. “I’m absolutely fine.” Her voice softened. “Thank you for everything, Addy. Without you, I don’t know what I would have done.”Adeline scoffed. “What are you talking about? We’re a team!”Anna smiled, her eyes glistening with emotion. “We are.”After catching up for a while, Anna asked, “Where’s my favourite godson?”“He’s sleeping,” Adeline said. “Once he wakes up, I will bring him to you. He will be so happy to see you. Every time he goes to your house, he keeps asking to see you. But when he doesn’t find you there, he gets so confused.” She sighed. “He is getting so mischievous hanging ou

That evening, when Damien returned, he greeted her with a warm smile. He spoke to her, but she barely responded. If he noticed her silence, he didn’t comment on it.At one point, he reached into his pocket, pulling out his wallet to hand a card to Jack. Just then, his phone rang. The second he saw the caller ID, his entire face lit up with excitement.Without a second thought, he abandoned his wallet on the table and rushed upstairs to take the call.Regina frowned.Every day, at this exact time, he would get on a call that sometimes lasted more than an hour. She had noticed it before, but today, it unsettled her.Her eyes flickered to the wallet he had left behind. She had no intention of snooping, only wanting to set it aside safely.But as she reached for it, something slipped out and landed on the floor.A picture.A Polaroid.Her hands trembled as she picked it up.The moment her gaze fell on the image, her breath caught in her throat.A girl with warm brown eyes stared back at

Claire stepped outside, her expression calm yet firm. “Lisa, I need you to make a visit for me today.”Lisa gave a polite nod. “Of course, madam. Where am I going?”Claire’s lips curled into a small smile. “Prison.”Anastasia, who had been listening quietly, blinked in surprise. “Wait, what?”Claire remained unfazed. “I have made all the necessary arrangements. You will meet the chief warden and hand him a bag, it is already placed in the car outside. Do it discreetly. It is classified. No questions unless they are related to completing the task correctly.”Lisa straightened. “Understood, madam.”Just then, Claire’s phone chimed. She glanced at the screen, and a satisfied smile crossed her face. “Damien Callahan signed the new deal.”Anastasia’s eyes widened. “He did? But he was completely against it as he said Harold promised him something different. How did you convince him to agree?”Claire smirked, amusement flickering in her eyes. “You were right. He does have feelings for me. Ot

"Hey, Anna. The DNA results are out," Adeline said over the phone. She had gone to great lengths to get this done, pulling every string she could. She believed that if she completed this task, she might finally get some answers. She might finally get somewhere.Anastasia gripped her phone tightly, her heartbeat quickening. "What do they say?" she asked. "Is Eleanor Claire’s daughter?"There was a pause before Adeline spoke again. Her voice was laced with regret. "I'm sorry, Anna. I gave you so much hope."Anastasia felt a lump form in her throat. "So… she’s not?""No," Adeline confirmed. "The results show no biological connection between Claire and Eleanor. They are not related."Anastasia took a slow breath, forcing herself to stay composed. "Hey, it's not your fault," she said, her tone gentle. "You did everything you could. It's just... none of us could change the truth." She exhaled. "Anyway, let's focus on something else."Without waiting for a response, she ended the call. A quie

Adeline had just returned to the table when she heard Regina’s soft and pensive voice.“Hey, Adeline… Have you ever been in love?”Adeline raised an eyebrow, surprised by the sudden question. Regina had been oddly quiet since she sat back down, her eyes distant, lost in thoughts Adeline couldn’t quite decipher. Something had shifted in her.“Yes,” Adeline answered with a small smile.Regina looked at her intently. “Was your love successful?”A nostalgic warmth flickered across Adeline’s face. “I struggled for almost a decade,” she admitted, “but it succeeded in the end.”Regina blinked, intrigued. “Really? Would you like to share it with me?”Adeline chuckled. “As you know, I’m a model, right?”Regina nodded. “I have heard your name.”Adeline rolled her eyes dramatically. “Girl, I have over fifty million followers, and you have just heard about me? You humble me real quick.”Regina let out a small laugh, and Adeline smirked before continuing.“Anyway, I was still in college and moving
