CHAPTER 111

Audrey’s povI sat in the quiet hospital room, the only sound coming from the soft beeping of the machines monitoring my father’s condition. Crawford, my father’s lawyer, sat next to me, his face serious but calm. He had been by our side through everything, and I trusted him.“Audrey,” he began, breaking the silence, “there’s something you need to know about your father.”I turned to him, my heart heavy with worry. “What is it?” I asked.He looked at me, his eyes kind but firm. “Your father knew Stephanie was not to be trusted. He had started suspecting her months ago.”My eyes widened. “What do you mean? If he knew, why didn’t he say anything to me?”Crawford sighed. “He didn’t want to worry you. He thought he could handle it himself. But he did take steps to protect himself.”I leaned forward, confused but eager to hear more. “What kind of steps?”“For one,” Crawford said, “he stopped eating any food Stephanie prepared for him.”My jaw dropped. “He stopped eating her food? How?”“Hi

CHAPTER 112

Audrey’s povThe week rushed by pretty fast as I made my statements at the station.When I was done, the commissioner leaned over. “I’m sorry for all you had to go through in the hands of your stepmother. I’ll make sure that never happens again.”“Can I see them?” I asked as the woman nodded.“Of course,” she said.I walked through the halls with a guard leading me there as we walked into a cold, dark prison. The air was heavy, and the sounds of distant murmurs echoed around me. I wasn’t nervous. I was determined. Today, I needed to face Stephanie and Amelia.The guard led me to Stephanie’s cell first. She was sitting on the small bed, looking completely relaxed. When she saw me, she smirked, like this was all some game to her.“So, Audrey,” she said, her voice mocking. “You came to see me? How sweet.”I stepped closer, gripping the cold metal bars. “Stephanie, you are about to regret ever coming into my life,” I said firmly. My voice didn’t shake. I wanted her to feel my anger and st

CHAPTER 113

Audrey’s povHe nodded. “I’ve never been more sure. Stephanie and Amelia betrayed this family. They tried to hurt me, to hurt us. You stood by me, protected me, and fought for the truth. You are the only one I trust to handle everything.”I looked at Mr. Crawford, who was smiling softly. He nodded as if to confirm my father’s words.“But Dad,” I said, “what about Amelia? She’s still your stepdaughter.”My father’s face hardened. “Amelia made her choices. She sided with Stephanie and Zach. She helped them try to harm me, Audrey. She doesn’t deserve anything from me.”I felt a lump in my throat. “And Stephanie?”He laughed bitterly. “Stephanie? She doesn’t deserve even a thought. That woman tried to poison me, to kill me. I regret ever letting her into my life. No, Audrey. Everything will go to you. You’re my daughter, and you’re the only one I trust.”Tears welled up in my eyes as I nodded. “I don’t know what to say, Dad.”“Just promise me,” he said, reaching for my hand, “that you’ll

CHAPTER 114

Xander povI wanted to surprise Audrey when she got home from court, so I decided to make her favorite meal. Cooking wasn’t something I did often, but for her, it was worth it. I set the table, lit a candle, and waited for her.When she walked in, I could tell she was tired but happy. I met her at the door with a smile.“Welcome sweetie,” I said. “You’re back home and you need to rest.“Thank you. You won’t believe the day I’ve had,” she said as we walked into the living room and she smiled when she saw the setup. “Xander, did you do all this?”I nodded and kissed her cheek. “You deserve it. Come, sit down. Let’s eat.”As we ate, she started telling me about what had happened in court.“Xander,” she said, “it’s all over now. The judge gave the verdict, and Stephanie, Zach, and Amelia are all going to prison. Justice has been served.”I could see the relief on her face. She looked lighter, freer.“That’s amazing news,” I said, smiling at her. “You’ve been through so much, Audrey. I’m

CHAPTER 115

Xander’s povI followed Daniel to his room as he whistled while I heard my name being called by Audrey and my mother alike.The minute he entered his room, he tried closing his door as my foot hit the door and it bounced open.He turned with a shock on his face as he had not expected me to follow him.“What are you doing?” He asked as I gritted my teeth. “You had no right to talk to my mother that way.”He laughed, reering his head back in heavy laughter before looking at me.“I don’t know what you think this is but you have about three seconds to get the hell out of my room.”“Why are you here?” I asked with a calm voice as he scoffed.“One,” he started a countdown, but I wasn’t scared of him. I was not in the mood for his theatrics.“We aren’t children anymore Daniel,” I said as I walked to the window to look out of it. “Two.” He continued as I scoffed.“You know, there were times when I actually thought we could be real brothers.”He scoffed. “Yeah, like you and Zach. Sorry, wher

CHAPTER 116

Lola’s povI sat in my big apartment, on the couch, I had my high school yearbook opened. I don’t know why I kept it all these years. Maybe part of me wanted to remember, relive those bittersweet memories. Or maybe remind myself how much everything changed over the years. Flipping through the pages, there were faces of people I hadn’t thought about in a long time; teachers, students; friends who just drifted apart.And then there she was - Audrey Redfield.Her smiling face stared back at me from the yearbook photo. The girl who had it all. Beautiful, confident, popular. She wasn’t just liked; she was adored. Every guy wanted her, and every girl wanted to be her—or hated her for it. I fell into the second category. I couldn’t stand her back then. She got all the attention while people like me were ignored, invisible.I sat there staring at her picture for a long time. “Audrey Redfield,” I muttered under my breath. “I hated you so much growing up.”A wave of curiosity hit me. I wonder

CHAPTER 117

Daniel’s povWhen Xander and Audrey got home, I was there. Right by the front door, back against the wall with arms folded across my chest. The minute they stepped inside, I locked eyes with Xander, frown already in place. Time to execute phase two of Lola’s plan.“Xander,” I said in a voice that was both casual and weighted just enough to make him turn his head.He looked at me, his gaze wary. Audrey glanced my way, then nodded slightly before continuing on her path into the living room. She didn’t trust me and I couldn’t blame her.“What’s up, Daniel?” Xander said as he came to a halt in front of me.I hesitated for a moment, then forced a smile. “Can we talk?”Xander arched an eyebrow, his suspicion over my change in demeanor obvious. “About what?”I shrugged, making sure my grin didn’t waver. “I don’t know… I just figured it might be a good idea to bury the hatchet. We’re family.”Xander’s scorn was evident in his expression. “Bury the hatchet? You’ve despised me since we were kid

CHAPTER 118

Xander’s povI shook my head firmly. “No, Audrey. Whatever feelings I might have had were gone the moment she walked away. Lola didn’t want me, and I wasn’t going to chase after someone who didn’t care.”Audrey seemed satisfied with my answer, but she still had a small smile on her lips. “Well, I’m glad she left,” she said teasingly. “Because if she hadn’t, I might not be here with you now.”I laughed, pulling her into my arms. “And I wouldn’t trade you for anything, Audrey. You’re the only one I want.”She smiled, resting her head on my chest. “I believe you, Xander. But I have to admit, Daniel bringing Lola like that… it feels like he’s trying to stir something up. Do you think he knows something?”I frowned, mulling over her words. “Possibly. Or maybe he’s looking for reactions, trying to see if he can rattle me.”She bobbed her head up and down against my chest. “Well, don’t let him. Because I’m not going to let him come between us.”We stayed like that for a while, wrapped in eac

CHAPTER 119

Audrey’s povAs I lay in bed, the soft glow from my bedside lamp washing over the room, I heard the door open. I looked toward it and found Xander entering with an annoyed look on his face. He glanced at me then dropped his gaze to the ground as if he was still deep in thought. I sat up and smiled at him.“How was your swim,” I spoke playfully, hoping to break his apparent sullen mood.Xander sighed and shook his head. “Daniel,” he huffed. “He was there, strutting around like a peacock, said something about Lola then started spouting off all this other crap about my life.”My smile fell. “What crap?”Xander waved it off. “Nothing worth repeating. Just Daniel being his usual self—trying to stir up trouble and make me question everything. I don’t know why he can’t just mind his own business.”I nodded in agreement, feeling exactly the same way. Daniel had an uncanny talent for showing up at the most inconvenient times and saying things that got under Xander’s skin like nothing else coul

CHAPTER 120

Audrey’s povHe grinned, clearly pleased. “That’s the spirit. You won’t regret it, I promise.”I wasn’t so sure about that.Later that evening, I found myself getting ready for the party. I chose a simple yet elegant dress, nothing too flashy but enough to make an impression. As I looked at myself in the mirror, I couldn’t shake the feeling that this was a bad idea.When I stepped out of the room, Daniel was waiting downstairs, dressed in a sleek black suit. He looked polished, but there was still that mischievous glint in his eyes that made me wary.“You clean up well,” he said with a smirk.“Don’t push it,” I replied, grabbing my clutch.We headed out in one of the family cars, Daniel driving. The atmosphere in the car was tense, though he tried to make small talk. I responded with short answers, keeping my guard up.When we arrived at the party, the place was buzzing with energy. It was a grand event, held in a sprawling mansion with lights twinkling in the gardens and music floati
