It’s been three years and I still miss her so much.“Not much has changed since your death, you know Tessy” I murmured, as I plucked out the weeds around her grave.I blew out the few dust I could. “I’m sorry i haven’t come by in a while” i chuckled “it’s been stressful taking care of Liam, who has a wild energy for his age”A hand grazed my shoulders and I looked up, smiling as Ethan gave me a gentle rub. “Ethan’s here too. We’ve all come here to spend time with you”I looked to my right and stretched my hands. “Liam? Come over here, come say hi to your Aunty” i called Liam to come over. He rushed to me, and jumped into my arms. His brows furrowed after I pointed at Theresa’s grave. “Mama? Where is she? I can’t see her, I can only see a huge stone” he said, and I couldn't help the chuckle that escaped my lips.“Oh boy!” I exclaimed as I looked at Ethan for help.Ethan understood immediately and crouched down to talk to

The day I finally get to call Ethan Greene, my husband.It was a day I had been patiently waiting for for three weeks, or months even. But I didn't have to wait anymore. It was finally here.I tugged on my white wedding gown, that laid beautifully on my body. It was a armless white wedding gown that showed off my glowy shoulders. I stared down at my neck that was embodied with a gold necklace that Ethan had gotten for me five days ago. It was beautiful.I looked at my hands, it had gold bracelets that went so well with my skin tone.My big belly protruded in the dress, but that didn’t matter one bit. It was my big day, a day special to me.Mrs. Thompson, my manager, walked over to me.“You ready?” She whispered as she took my hand under her elbow.She was the one to walk me down the aisle. Oh, how I wished it was her. How I wis

Chapter: 130: FINAL VERDICTADRIANNAONE WEEK LATERI let my hair slide down my shoulders, gently combing through, taking my precious time.Today, I had to look good. Because it was an important day to me. The day I could see Jasmine and Raymond being thrown in jail. I put on a smile, nothing was going to spoil my mood. Just the thought of seeing Jasmine and Raymond in jail, brought a tremendous smile to my face. I combed through my hair a few more times and when I was done, I placed the comb on the table, and lightly pressed on my hair.I stood up from the stool and walked to the mirror. I turned left and I turned right, staring and admiring myself.“Today you have to look beautiful. Because today? You watch your enemies being put behind bars for all they have done” I muttered to myself, and smiled.I walked over to my wardrobe, pulling it open. They were a lot of beautiful clothes, but I wanted something extraordinary. I skimmed through, my eyes roaming from clothes to clothes till I eventually found one. It

Right now all I could see in front of me was a ticket to an already solved case.I pulled her in and hugged her tightly, my cheeks blaring red with excitement. “Thank you Anna, thank you so so much” I muttered.“You don’t know how happy I am right now. I’m so sorry I doubted you” I apologized, releasing her from the hug.“Listen” I took her hands in mine. “I would make sure your family is safe” I said to her, smiling with assurance.She finally let out a smile and her chest seemed to fall in relief.I bid her farewell immediately, and promised to get to the root of this faster, so as to process her release immediately. I got to the car, and waited for Darka to come open the door for me. Immediately he did, I hopped in, and waited till he turned to the driver’s seat.“Guess what?” I said excitedly.Darka looked at me, and smiled. “What?” He asked and I scoffed.“I’m pretty sure I said ‘guess’” I rol

Tears began to stream down her eyes, like she had been desperately practicing for this moment, where she would be at my feet to beg for mercy.I scoffed and adjusted my seat backwards. “Save your tears Anna, I have no need to listen to your apologies” I said.“Like I said, I'm here to ask about something,” I added.“Jasmine in particular” her eyes widened.I stood up from the chair and placed my phone on the table, beside my purse.I began to slowly pace around the room, taking a look at Anna as she knelt down on the floor. AllI could think about was if and how I was going to make her speak up. This was my only chance. My only way to set things right.I sucked in a deep breath and proceeded.“Anna,” I began, staring right at her.“I need you to tell me everything Jasmine has been up to. Anything you know at all.”She immediately shook her head and tried to speak but her voic

Chapter: 127: THE SNITCH 1ADRIANNA “Jasmine got to him before us” the words rolled out of both our mouths as our eyes widened in realization. Damn it! “So that was the reason she came to see him” I blurted as I stared out the window. Two police officers greeted me as they walked by, and I slightly nodded, then smiled. “Well i’m not surprised” Ethan said, making me turn my head. “Seatbelt” he pointed to me, and I quickly buckled up. He continued, this time his hands firm on the steering wheel. “I’m pretty sure she would do anything to cover her tracks and hide all evidence. Right now we just need to figure out a way to get evidence or at least make her or Raymond speak up” I nodded almost immediately, totally agreeing to what he said. He started the ride, and drove out of the station seconds after. My phone dinged, and I took it off my lap. It was a message from Darka. Back home, the information I asked Roland to check was already waiting for us. I couldn’t even wait to get home, I just hoped there w

Chapter: Chapter 4: TorontoDANTEPRESENT DAYI was sitting in my office, going through numerous paperworks when Massimo barged in with a horrid look on his face.My head snapped towards his direction and a frown formed on my face.“Massimo? What is it?” I asked calmly.He began to walk closer to the table and that was when I noticed the envelope in one of his hands and a ziplock in the other hand.“Don Vescari, there seems to be a big problem” he said immediately and dropped the contents right in front of me. Pushing the paperwork to the side I picked up the envelope and took a look at it. Inside were pictures. Pictures of a dead body lying in the woods.I looked at Massimo then back at the pictures, flipping through them one by one.Even with his face unrecognizable, I knew exactly who that was. It was Don Richie Caruso, the man I killed two days ago.Flipping through more of the pictures, my eyes landed on one that made me pause. I singled it out and threw the rest of the picture on the table.Taking a closer

Chapter: Chapter 62: PhoneboothLUCIA Midnight eventually came and I was ready to move. The moment the clock hit twelve, I stood up from my bed and walked quietly to the window in the room. I checked outside to see if there were still guards lurking around the retreat. Thankfully, there wasn’t. It seemed they had all gone to sleep. Perfect timing. Tiptoeing back to the center of the room, I took one last look around the room. I desperately hoped that this would be my last time here. For real this time. I no longer wanted to follow the decision of my heart. That was so stupid of me. I was getting out of here today. Walking over to my bed, I picked up my phone as that was the only thing I would be needing. A few hours ago, the lapel pin guard who I now learnt his name was Roberto after I asked had brought a bag filled with little clothes and essentials to me. He said that Alejandro had instructed that I spend a few days here and he had asked Miguel to pack a little bag for me so I would be comfortable. I

Chapter: Chapter 61: MidnightLUCIAAs much as I wanted to stay right in this position for as long as I could, even going against the thoughts in my head that screamed this was so wrong, there was something I had to discuss with Alejandro. This marriage thing with Carlos. I just couldn’t understand why Alejandro was taking this so seriously and I also couldn’t sit down and not do anything. I wanted to help Carlos out as much as I could. It was Carlos' life and he had every right to dictate what he wanted, when he wanted it and even Alejandro as his father shouldn’t have the right to go against that. We needed to have a real talk about this, so ignoring my heart that so desperately wanted to lean into his touch further, I slowly pulled away from him. “Alejandro…we need to talk” I uttered, slipping further away from him. I raised my head to look at him before releasing a faint smile. “We need to talk, Alejandro. This is important” I repeated again, then moved to walk to the bed. I sat on the edge of the bed, w

Chapter: Chapter 60: Blushing messLUCIARight after the driver parked the car, I jumped out and practically ran towards the entrance of the building. I didn’t even care about the guards that panic-ran behind me with a flush of surprise drawn all over their faces. I smirked. They looked so cute in their confused state. “Signora!” The man with the lapel pin rushed to stand in front of me, stopping me in my tracks. He released a breath, then straightened his posture. “What?” I asked, like I almost didn't just give him a heart attack, but served him right for trying to ignore me when I asked about where we were going. I could guess that the reason why they were being so uptight was because Alejandro might have given them clear instructions to never let me out of their sights. And oh boy, I couldn’t wait to see their faces when my escape became a success. “Not…nothing. This way Signora Lucia” he stammered as he pointed to the entrance of the building and ushered me to go in first. Turning to take a look around, I t

Chapter: Chapter 59: Escort 2LUCIAImmediately after Miguel said those words, the men noticed my presence and instantly bowed. “Signora!” Their voices rang through the entire room, startling me out of place. I jolted and moved backwards a bit, taking my hands to my chest. What is happening right now?“Miguel?” I called, scared out of my wits. “What is happening?”Just then, Miguel chuckled and began to walk towards the stairs. He walked up the stairs until he was just inches away from me. Gripping the railings, he leaned towards it. “Nothing is happening Signora” he muttered with a smile as if trying to ease my fear. “Don Alejandro has asked for you to be escorted out of the mansion for air” he added and I froze. There was no way…there was no way that was true.“Ar…are you for real?”Miguel’s swift nod quickly told me it was actually true.I was actually stepping out of the mansion’s gate.But why?

Chapter: Chapter 58: Escort 1LUCIATHE NEXT MORNING My sleep was interrupted by the loud ringing of the landline. Believe me when I say it took everything in me not to pick it up and smash it against the wall. Why the fuck was Miguel calling me this early? Was it even time for breakfast? Still subconsciously in my sleep, my hands roamed my bed for my phone. I picked it up by the edge of the bed to check the time.It was still seven in the morning. Breakfast wasn’t until an hour later. So, why was Miguel calling me on the landline like it was time for breakfast? I hesitated picking up at first, thinking it was better to just ignore it and go back to sleep like I never heard it in the first place, but the phone kept ringing and I had no choice but to drag myself groggily out of my bed to pick up the phone.The instant I placed the phone to my ear, the first word I muttered was “Miguel, breakfast isn’t until an hour later, why are you calling me?!” The other side of the phone was silent for a few seconds as if
