THE SCATTERED VOW
Six years ago Vivian Carter believed she had the perfect husband and a perfect best friend, until she discovered that her perfect husband had been sleeping with her best friend Vanessa.
The betrayal is devastating but what destroys Vivian completely is Vanessa's announcement that she is pregnant.
Adrian was secretly involved in a dangerous incident that ended with someone getting seriously hurt. Adrian believed the matter was buried until he began receiving anonymous messages from someone who possessed a video proving his involvement.
The blackmailer never revealed his identity, he only communicated through encrypted messages, always appearing to know Adrian’s movements and private conversations.
His demand was simple: Adrian had to protect Vanessa, accept responsibility for her unborn child, and make Vivian believe he had willingly betrayed her.
Every time Adrian considered exposing the truth, the blackmailer threatened to release the video and destroy his life.
But the biggest mystery is this
How did the anonymous person get the video, and why are they so determined to keep Vivian and Adrian apart?
As Vivian begins investigating her past, she unknowingly gets closer to discovering the blackmailer’s identity and the truth is connected to her signing for a divorce and falling in love with Lorenzo.

Chapter: Midnight StaticChapter 7Midnight StaticAdrian POVI remain motionless,listening as the last squeal of my tire disappears into a suffocating silence of the deserted road. The air inside the car suddenly felt thin, tasting faintly of iron and the cold river fog that pressed against the glass.

For the last twenty minutes, a soft chime rang through the sparsely decorated room.The silence between us hadn't been filled with the rush of our shared secret, but with a freezing, crushing sense of doom."Who is it this time, Adrian?"

She dropped her hand, letting the phone rest on the marble-topped coffee table between us, its surface blinking playfully with a steady, pulsing notification light. "Look at the logs. Is it another clip? Are they watching the driveway again?"I didn't answer right away. I dragged a heavy hand down my face, my skin cold and damn, feeling the rough facial hair I hadn't
