Even after getting on the plane, everything felt so surreal and unsettling. I never thought I would have the chance to return after being sent away five years ago. After all, Benjamin Spencer made himself very clear I should never show myself to him.Then again, he was also the one who bought this ticket for me so I could return to the country to attend his and Melanie Chester's wedding anniversary.After two layovers, I finally reached my final destination.Shelly slept soundly on the plane, but she started to throw a tantrum when we left the plane."Mommy, my feet hurt," she complained, sobbing.I quickly carried her and walked toward the exit. As I reached, I reached for my phone to order a taxi.Just then, my phone rang. Looking at the caller's number, I hesitated and could not decide if I should accept the call. In the end, I did not.The phone rang again swiftly after. This time I accepted it after a heavy sigh.Benjamin's voice came through the speaker. After so many yea

The room immediately fell quiet; not a word was said.Benjamin glared at me as if assessing whether I was being truthful or otherwise.Melaine was about to say something when Benjamin approached me. "Where's your husband?" he asked.I pursed my lips and answered, "He's busy and couldn't make it."People in the room started to whisper and chuckle. However, they did not dare to do it too blatantly as they feared Benjamin's reaction.Benjamin frowned. Despite that, he said nothing else and went to sit with Melanie.The dinner was insufferable. While the others tried so hard to compliment how loving Benjamin and Melanie were, I only wanted to end the dinner quickly and bring Shelly back to rest.The rent was affordable in this city, which was a good thing. After all, I did not want to leave the country anymore.The dinner ended very quickly. When I wanted to leave, Benjamin stopped me and said he had something to say. Thus, everyone else left the room leaving me and Benjamin. Oh, a

In my second year of university, Benjamin loosened the control on me. That was when I got to know a lecturer, Jane Leighton.Jane was a psychiatrist who worked at the university, and I had reached out to her when I was badly depressed. After I told Jane I had developed romantic feelings for Benjamin, I had feared Jane would be disgusted. After all, that was how everyone thought of me.However, that was not the case.Jane encouraged me to let go of the past and invited me to join her in her experiment. She showed me many photos of Shelly, who she had just given birth to at the time. Her marriage with Shelly's father did not work, and they divorced. Despite it all, she still loved Shelly very much.I thought my depression would go with Jane around. Alas, good things never lasted.One night, the building of Jane's experiment room caught fire. I had put on my earphones and did not hear the alarm.Jane had run into the room to inform me of the fire. It was smoldering hot, so much so t

Shelly was intimidated by Benjamin, remembering how he had yelled at me before.Eventually, Benjamin walked toward us. "Yvonne, I know the truth."I tensed up at this. I wanted to leave, but Benjamin would not let me."She's your lecturer's daughter, isn't she? We can raise her together. I still keep your room…"Yvonne, there's always a future for us if you want to," Benjamin said.I kept silent as I held Shelly.'How nice to hear that. A future for us. What makes him change his mind?' I wondered.Maybe he still disliked me. Or was he just afraid of losing me, which was why he tried to keep me by his side—either as his niece or lover?Of course, I did not want to be his niece or lover anymore.I shook my head. "Let's not talk about that, Benjamin. It's already in the past."Everything was in the past, the good and the bad. There was nothing left for me to recall with nostalgia, and I would not do it either.Benjamin was shocked to hear that."You're right. I confused myself
