Tangled In Secret

Chaptee Thirty One "Okay! I'll be there soon" Nolan says, as he hang up his call. Hearing the conversation, I knew it's a call from the company they needs him urgently. I breathe In and out deeply, because I need him by my side. "I am sorry, Marie. I'll be back as soon as I can," he says, his eyes lingering on me, awaiting something that I do not want to give him at this particular moment. Understanding, perhaps. Forgiveness. I nod, my throat tight, and watch him go. The door clicks softly shut behind him and the quiet presses in-too heavy, too still. I turn back to Simeon lying in the hospital bed, his small chest rising and falling with every labored breath. The steady beeping of the machines is the only sound in the room, the constant reminder of how fragile everything feels right now. I look at him again, he looks so small from the bed. “Or is there something bothering Simeon? He doesn't even want to go to school before the incident occurs, is it within school or outsi

Simeon's Release and Leo's Absence

-Chapter Thirty-Two: Simeon's Release and Leo's AbsenceI look at the clock on the wall of the hospital, each passing tick pulling me deeper into a void I do not want to face. The doctors clear Simeon for discharge, and the papers are signed. I should feel relieved, but the gnawing emptiness of Leo's absence presses against my chest.I texted Leo that his son would be released this morning, so he should be here by now. My phone vibrates softly in my hand, but it's not Leo. Not a word all day from him.I make myself look at Simeon, his small face lighting up as he gathers his things, his legs swinging excitedly over the side of the bed. I can't let him see my disappointment-he needs today to be perfect. After everything he's been through, he deserves that much.“Mommy, can we get ice cream on the way home?"-his voice is sweet and eager, that kind of innocence that makes my heart ache even more.Before I can answer, Nolan's voice cuts through the thick silence around me. "Of course, bu

A week to enjoy ourselves from the stress we have passed through “Mum, are we not there yet?” Nolan asks, his eagerness is palpable.“Don't worry darling, we are almost there. Just a few minutes, Okay?” I say, keeping my voice cheerful, almost like his mood As we get there, my heart races for joy. His house proudly stands out, with a very neat and modern structure.

A Day At The Beach

Chapte Thirty Five: A Day at the BeachThe sun is high in the sky, its warmth dancing across our skin as the salted breath of the ocean whisks by with a gush. It is so long since I felt this free, with the weight of the world finally lifted off my shoulders. En route to the beach, I glanced over at Simeon, beaming, his small hands pressed against the window as the ocean came into view.Mum! Look at the water! Can we swim as soon as we get there? Please?" Simeon begs, his voice bubbly with eagerness.I smile, “Yes darling, that's the reason we are going there. We will swim, build sandcastles and enjoy ourselves there, I am sure you will like it. How does that sound?”“That sounds really good, I am going to enjoy myself today” he says, bouncing in his seat I feel a chuckle from Nolan-who sits next to me in the driver's seat. "Seems like someone's ready for an adventure.".I turn to him, my heart full of gratitude. Nolan's company has been a constant, composed, a silent strength that I

Revelation

Chapter Thirty SixNext morning, I woke up with that gnawing feeling of unease, like some buzzing fly whizzing around inside me. The serenity of yesterday at the beach now seemed a distant dream as reality came lashing back. Today, we were to meet the doctor-the one who would hold the key to whatever the future held for me and my son.I look sideways at Simeon; he is still sleeping, his slim body twisted in the sheets. A pang of guilt tightens my chest. How will I keep all this from him? How will I keep him from all of this that's going to come crashing down? I sit up softly, my mind suddenly racing.I make my way to the kitchen, where Nolan is already brewing coffee. He's always up before me, always steady. Today, though, there's a tightness around his eyes, an unspoken tension he's not concealing very well. He hands me a mug, and for a second, I feel his eyes on me, as if he's waiting for me to break the silence first.You haven't slept much," he says softly, more said than asked.I

The Dilemma

Chaptee Thirty Seven I have been thinking of the discussion we had with the doctor yesterday. The doctor's words stick into my brain, and I can't seem to get it out of my head, it sits there, heavy like boulders weighing on my chest. Trying to know I have lived with someone who blackmails, extorts and does a lot of bad things and I even have a child with him.I stand at the window, watching Simeon play in the yard. His laughter filters through the glass, pure and full of joy, completely unaware of the storm brewing around him. For a moment, I consider what it would be like to let things stay just that way-to keep him from the truth. But how much longer can I keep pretending it's okay out here, when Leo's shadow keeps encroaching?Nolan busies himself in the kitchen even though he has a lot of chefs, yet he's making us tea in silence. He has become an anchor for me, something steady I can lean upon. But even he can't mask the concern that dances in his eyes now. Dr. Gray's offer still

Strategic Alliance

Chapter Thirty EightNola and I decide to go to the Doctor's place.We step into the car, and we didn't even utter a word. We are both thinking of what's going on As we get there, we are told to enter. The doctor is sitting opposite his desk, and we sit across from her. She adjusts her glasses, an expression of thought upon her face , her face is unreadable.“We have agreed to align with us, with the hope of not losing” Nolan says " What do we do? We need to start planning, “I know it's not only us he has done bad things to, but he promised not to stop, we can't watch him keep doing bad things to everyone”Dr. Gray leaned back in her chair, tapping a pen against her notebook. "Leo is smart. He's always been one step ahead. If you want to bring him down, you'll need his private documents—the ones he uses to blackmail people. Those are the key to his power."My stomach churns just to hear Leo's name. He has always been so calculated, merciless. I shut my eyes as the images of him rush

Nolan Is Disturbed

Chapter Thirty Nine The sun shines soft through the window, casting a warm glow across the living room as I sit on the floor with Simeon. He's focused, his tiny fingers carefully stacking one colorful block atop another. I watch him, my heart swelling with affection. These moments are so dear to me, when everything seems so typical, so serene. For a few minutes, I can forget the chaos looming over us.Look, Mommy!" Simeon beams up at me, his tower proud-though a little wobbly-standing.I smile and reach to steady the blocks. "You're getting to be such a good builder, my little builder.At my praise, his face lights up, and before I know it, I lean down and press a soft kiss to his forehead. I think I am fulfilling my promise already, that I won't let him know of this storm, I won't let what's weighing me down affect him, I can see his face light up and I am happy for that. I smile watching him play happily, my joy. But it doesn't last.Nolan steps into the room; his footsteps heavy,
