Chapter: Chapter 68: You're Safe NowEverywhere went dead silent immediately after his voice echoed through the hall.It was as if everyone in the hall was compelled to do so.“Bryce.…” Kimberly’s voice trembled. It was barely a whisper, fragile with disbelief. For a moment, she thought she was hallucinating.Maybe her mind that was desperate for escape, had conjured him out of thin air. But then she saw him.... the fire in his gray eyes, the fury in the lines of his jaw, and her vision blurred with hot tears.Her lips quivered into a trembling smile.He really was here. Bryce came for her.Thanks to Landon’s tracking, and Cindy, who’d suspected Anderson’s involvement after spotting him somewhere some days ago, and realized he was back in town, and would definitely do something if he found out Kimberly was back too.Anderson’s lips curled into a mocking smile that didn’t quite hide the flicker of fear in his eyes. “And I'm guessing that is your.... husband. Your knight in shining amor, huh?”He knew exactly who Bryce H

Chapter: Chapter 67: Step Away From HerThe words barely left her mouth before the maids silently rushed forward towards her.“Don’t touch me!” she yelled, jerking back. Her wrists screamed in pain as the ropes dug deeper, but she didn’t care at all. “Let me go! You can’t do this—!”Anderson’s lips curved up again, but not in amusement this time. It was one that came with a cold satisfaction. “You’ll learn soon enough, Kimberly. Resistance only makes it harder. Fun even.”“Harder for who?!” Kimberly spat. “You? You’re pathetic, Anderson! You were pathetic then, and you still are now! You're still the same pathetic loser from six years ago.”There was a flicker of anger flashing across Anderson's eyes, but he didn’t take the bait. He only turned to the maids, and ordered, “Take her. Now.”Two of the maids moved forward, gripping Kimberly's arms. She thrashed, kicking and twisting, but they were stronger than they looked. Her bare feet scraped against the cold floor as they dragged her out of the dim cell and into a long co

Chapter: Chapter 66: Finally Be My Wife“Bryce....” That was the first word that slipped past Kimberly's mouth when consciousness clawed its way back.A sharp, throbbing pain pulsed behind her temples, dragging her out of the darkness.Her lashes fluttered open slowly, only to be met by dim light filtering through a small, high window. The air in the room was stale and heavy with damp. Her mouth felt dry, her throat raw.“Where… am I?She pushed herself up slowly, wincing as her head pounded harder. Her limbs were stiff, and she felt utterly week and tired.The last thing she remembered was stumbling out of the bar, with her phone pressed to her ear. Bryce’s voice faint and urgent from the other end of the call, and then… nothing. The rest was a complete blur. She could also remember a hand that was wrapped around her. The scent of something chemical before everything went black.Her stomach twisted at the thought of it. Who could have done that, and why? What was going on?She looked around, a deep frown forming across

Chapter: Chapter 65: If Something Happens To My WifeAn hour earlier….After putting little Keira to bed and making sure Ellie had retired for the night too, Kimberly found herself restless. The silence of the house pressed down on her heavily. Every corner whispered of Bryce, frustrating her more than she already was.And the fact her mind knew that somewhere out there, he was with Sienna. Smiling at her, and maybe even touching her, was driving her insane.Why? She had no answer to that. Kimberly shook her head hard again and again, but Sienna’s mocking words wouldn’t stop replaying. They crawled under her skin, burrowing deep until she couldn’t breathe.So she left.She hadn’t planned to end up at a bar a few blocks away, but there she was, sitting on a high stool with a half-empty glass in her hand, trying to drown out the ache in her chest with the burn of alcohol.By the time the bartender leaned toward her, his voice gentle but firm, she was already swaying slightly.“I’m sorry, ma’am. I think you’ve had enough. I can’t serve y

Chapter: Chapter 64: Go Have Fun With Your FianceeSienna blinked, caught off guard. Her fork hovered halfway to her lips before she set it down slowly. “What do you mean?” she asked. It wasn’t exactly what she wanted to say, but it was the only thing that came to her head.Bryce narrowed his eyes, suspicion clouding them as his intense gaze was fixed on her now, steady and unyielding. “I asked how you knew Kimberly had an accident.”Sienna let out a soft laugh, feigning confusion. “Oh, Bryce, please. Everyone knows. It was all over the gossip columns, wasn’t it?”“No.” Bryce's tone was sharp and cold. “It wasn’t.”The smile on Sienna's face faded for the briefed seconds.The air between them shifted instantly, the elegant hum of the restaurant fading into the background.Bryce leaned forward, his eyes narrowing as if peeling back the layers of her carefully composed mask. “No one knew about Kimberly's accident except my family.” Bryce continued, and Sienna swallowed, her heart thumping wildly in her chest.Oh no, what had she done?

Chapter: Chapter 63: Why Am I Even Angry“I can’t believe he left with her.” Kimberly’s sigh slipped out, heavy and exasperated, as she tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear.Yes. He left. Bryce actually left the house with Sienna.She had wondered what Sienna was doing here in the first place, especially this late in the evening. But never, not even for a second, had she thought it was because the two of them had plans together.Wait. Could that be the reason Bryce came home so early today?Had he left his office hours ahead of schedule just so he could prepare for their… outing? Their date, or whatever it was?Her chest tightened. She had thought foolishly that he came home early because of her. Because she wasn’t well.Her heart had swelled at the thought, warmed at the idea that Bryce cared enough to put her above his endless work. But now? Now the truth mocked her. He hadn’t come home for her. He’d come home for Sienna.Kimberly pressed her palms against the cool balcony railing, the evening air brushing against
