Chapter: chapter 219AlexI stared at the grey wall of my cell, empty and cold. I couldn’t sleep, I couldn’t think. My mind was heavy and my chest felt like it carried a mountain.I knew I was not going to come out of this mess. Whether it was a death sentence or life imprisonment, it didn’t matter anymore. My fate is already sealed but there is one thing I needed to do before that judgment came... I have to bury my father.Yes, He may not have been the best man but he is my father, my blood, the only person I have in this world. After thinking all through the night, in the morning, I asked to see Fred.When I walked into his office, he looked up at me, his eyes tired, filled with the kind of pity I never thought I’d see from him. For a second, we were just two old friends again but then the handcuffs reminded me of who I had become.“I want to bury my father,” I said quietly. “Please. I want to bury my father before I am sentenced. It’s the only thing I can do for him now. I know what Is waiting for me

Chapter: chapter 218Ethan I stared at Alex as sweat poured from his forehead, his lips trembled and his entire body looked like it would give out any second. "Good." I smiled inwardly. Let the weight of what he has done crush him.Alex looked from me to the DPO with panic all over his face like a scared child caught red-handed.“Do you still need me to tell you that you are a murderer?” I asked, my voice steady but cold.“It was a mistake,” he muttered, looking at the DPO now. “Please… Fred, it was a mistake. I didn’t mean to…”The DPO just shook his head and let out a deep sigh. He looked torn but I didn’t care about his feelings right now.I stepped forward. “If you still want to keep your badge and your job,” I said to the DPO, my tone sharp, “then do your duty. I want him charged to court first thing tomorrow morning.”The DPO nodded slowly. “Understood.”Alex looked at me with pleading eyes. “Ethan, please… I’m sorry. I lost control. It was a mistake... my father just died... I wasn’t thinking st

Chapter: chapter 217EthanI couldn’t believe it.First, I got a call that Mr. Johnson was dead. That alone knocked the air out of my lungs but before I could even process that shocking news, another message came in that Alex had shot Tina.For a moment, I just stood there, frozen as my phone nearly slipped from my hand.Tina?I couldn't believe it.Yeah, I knew Tina betrayed me. Yes, she turned against me but no matter how much I hated what she did, she is still my sister, my blood. I couldn’t just sit and do nothing.“Get the car ready. Now!” I barked at my driver as I grabbed my jacket and stormed out of the house.The ride to the hospital was a blur. My fists were clenched the whole time. My thoughts were wild. God, What the hell is Alex thinking? How could he do something like that to her?As soon as we arrived, I didn’t waste a second. I marched straight in and spotted a doctor speaking with a nurse.“I need to see Tina Adamson,” I said, barely able to keep the panic out of my voice.The doctor tur

Chapter: chapter 216AlexAfter I deposited my father's body in the morgue, I drove home like a ghost behind the wheel, my bloodied shirt sticking to my skin as my mind replayed everything that happened like a cursed film I couldn’t stop. The silence in the house was unbearable. I changed into fresh clothes, but no matter how many times I scrubbed my hands, I still felt the blood there. My father's blood and Tina’s blood.When I returned to the hospital, I went straight to Tina’s room. When I got there, I met three nurses by her side, checking her vitals and adjusting her drip. They turned when I walked in and gave me a small bow.“Good evening, Mr. Johnson.”“How is she?” I asked quietly. “Has she woken up?”One of them shook her head. “No, sir. But she’s responding to treatment. Her pulse is stable.”I nodded and sighed heavily, pressing my fingers against my temple. That was good news. It had to be but I couldn’t ignore the tightness in my chest.What if she doesn’t make it… ?“God, please don’t let

Chapter: chapter 215Alex's My hands wouldn’t stop shaking as I stared at Tina lying in a pool of her own blood. Her chest rose and fell in shallow gasps, and blood stained the floor like something out of a nightmare. "What have I done?" I murmured, my body drenched with sweat.I quickly shoved the gun back into my waistband, my heart pounding louder than the echo of the gunshot still ringing in my ears. My breath came in short, panicked bursts. This isn't supposed to happen. I didn’t mean to shoot her. I didn’t... I swear I didn’t.The door flung open and a group of doctors and nurses rushed in, their eyes wide in horror.“What happened, Mr. Johnson? We heard a gunshot!” one of the doctors asked, his voice sharp and alert.“I... I don’t have time to explain,” I choked, my throat tightening. “Please. Save her. I can’t lose her too. Please…”The look the doctor gave me said he didn’t fully believe me but he didn’t question further. Two nurses hurried over and gently lifted Tina from the floor. She didn’

Chapter: chapter 214Tina My whole body trembled as Alex pointed a gun at my head. I froze, completely shocked as I looked at Alex whose eyes were burning with rage. Goodness, it isn't the man I knew... the man I loved, trusted, and betrayed everything for. “Alex… please,” I whispered, my voice shaking as much as my knees. How did we get here? Just moments ago, we were mourning his father together. And now... he wanted to kill me? How could he even think of that? I never said anything wrong, I only told him the truth. I wasn’t defending Ethan, I hated him but we couldn’t jump to conclusions without proof. His father’s accident could have been anyone’s doing. We haven't even spoken to the one surviving guard who was in the emergency room. We haven't checked the CCTV. But I know Alex didn’t want to hear that right now. His pain has turned him into someone else. “Don’t do this,” I begged again, slowly stepping backward. “Why not?” he growled, his eyes dark and wild. “You’re an Adamson. You are o

"Is everything alright?" I asked, My heart filled with worries as I gazed at my husband who walked in with his eyes contorted with rage.
He looked at me with disgust. Without a word, he threw something at me. It wasn’t until the papers scattered on the cold floor that I realized they were pictures.
My eyes widened in horror as I stared at the images.
They were pictures of me. But not just me, it was me and another man. A man I didn’t even know.
The photos were intimate, showing us in compromising positions as if we were lovers.
God, How did he get this?

Chapter: chapter 5Emily*Six years later*"Miss Emily, you look absolutely beautiful!" My secretary, Rose, complimented me with a smile, her eyes shining with admiration.I smiled softly, smoothing out my white gown that was adorned with stones and flowers. Today wasn’t just an ordinary day. Today is the day I will reveal the face behind the king's Empire. After six years of hard work, sacrifices, and pain, I'm finally ready.“Thank you, Rose,” I replied, my voice steady despite the emotions swirling inside me. “It’s going to be a big day.”Rose nodded with excitement. “They’ll be so surprised when they find out it’s you. No one will see this coming.”I laughed lightly, remembering how far I had come. Six years. That’s how long I have been preparing for this moment. I have worked in the background with the support of my childhood friend, Nathaniel and my grandmother, Mrs Helen Kings, A famous billionaire business tycoon who guided me all through while I took on a two-year business course to strengt

Chapter: chapter 4Alex My chest tightened with a mix of anger and disbelief As I stormed out of the house. I still can't believe Emily could cheat on me after everything we've been through. My mother has always warned me about her, telling me she's not what she portrays to be but I was blinded by the love I had for her. She's my first love. I mean, the first woman I ever had a crush on right from high school. I could remember how I was planning on confessing my love to her before my mother sent me to Canada. I searched for her when I came back to New York after six years but couldn't find her and I was so happy when I found out that she was the one who saved me from the terrible accident that almost claimed my life. She made me believe that she loves me, that I can trust her. I could still remember how I defied my mother's order and married her, thinking she genuinely loved me. “Ahh!!” I groaned in frustration, kicking the wheel of my car. The images of her with another man flashed in my head,

Chapter: chapter 3EmilyI stared at the woman whom I had only seen on magazine covers and billboards. Vanessa Hartman, the famous model. She was breathtaking, with long legs, flawless skin, and hair that shimmered under the lights. Her presence alone was enough to make the air feel heavier, but what shocked me even more was how my mother-in-law’s face lit up with joy immediately after she saw her. "Do they know each other?" I mumbled to myself. “Oh, Vanessa!” My mother-in-law exclaimed, rushing over to her with open arms. “My dear, it's so good to see you!”Vanessa smiled sweetly, walking up to her as though they had been close for years. “Mother!” she said, embracing her like they were family. “I have missed you so much.”I blinked, Mother? I had never heard anyone else call my mother-in-law that. It was a title she had never allowed me to use. “Mrs. Thompson” was as close as I got.They spoke like old friends, like they had known each other forever.

Please don’t leave!” I begged, my voice weak and broken as he turned to walk away.He left without answering, Not even a glance back, shattering what little remained of my heart.I collapsed onto the floor, clutching my stomach as pathetic tears of heartbreak fell down my cheeks. How did things get this bad? How did the love we shared turned into something so broken, so cruel? Today, which was supposed to be my happy day, has now turned into my worst nightmare. Why is this happening to me? Who have I offended that can't forgive me but choose to ruin my happiness and marriage? My heart clenched with pain as I cried like a child, the kind of crying that comes from the deepest, most vulnerable part of you. The part that believes in love, in second chances, in hope. I didn’t even get the chance to tell him the news that I was pregnant, the news that I thought would change everything. I squeezed my chest to suppress the pain in my heart as it was ind

I glanced at the folded paper on the table and I felt my heart swelling with joy as I picked it up again, reading it for what felt like the hundredth time. Tonight is going to be perfect. I still can't believe this. I'm pregnant and the thought of it made my stomach swell with excitement. After four years of trying, four years of disappointment and heartbreak, the day has finally come. I pressed a hand to my stomach and tears of happiness fell down my eyes. When we lost our first baby, it felt like the world had collapsed around me. Alex has been distant ever since and his mother… Well, she never missed a chance to remind me that I had failed her son.
