Chapter 90:A Shoulder to Lean On

Day 31/365

VICKY

I’ve never been more grateful for a public holiday in my entire life.

After last night’s eggy disaster, waking up felt like peeling off shame from my pores. I took a long bath, used all the expensive soaps Rue stacked in the guest bathroom, even that lavender one that smells like money and retirement plans. And still—still—I swore I could smell egg yolk on my skin.

Maybe it was in my head. Or maybe humiliation really does linger longer than perfume.

I wrapped myself in my robe and made my way downstairs. The house was quiet, almost suspiciously so. Rue was in the kitchen wearing his hoodie like he was trying to pretend he was a regular guy and not the man whose entire bloodline witnessed my public egging.

He turned when he saw me. “Morning,” he said, far too casual. Like nothing happened.

“Morning,” I replied, squinting at him. “You look… suspiciously calm.”

“ How was your night ? did you sleep well ?” He asked his face beaming with s

    Chapter 121: Not HereRUEBy the time I got in my car, my head was pounding. I just needed to get home to Vicky.The drive felt longer than usual, even though I kept telling myself to calm down. She’d said she was fine. But she had that tone earlier… the one where she tries to make it sound like nothing’s wrong, even when everything is.When I finally pulled into the driveway, I saw Bella’s car already there. Good. Maybe she’d kept her company.I stepped inside, dropped my keys on the table. “Vicky?”No answer.“Vicky!” I called again, walking toward the kitchen.Bella came out from the hallway, holding a glass of water. “Oh…hey. You’re back early.”“Where’s she?”Bella frowned. “She’s… not with you ?She is not here “I froze. “What do you mean she’s not here?”“I mean… she wasn’t here when I got here. I thought she was with you.”My chest tightened. “No. I left her here this morning.”Bella shook her head slowly. “Maybe she went out?”I was already pulling my phone from my pocket. “S

    Chapter 120: StressDay 40/365VICKY . I woke up feeling worse than I had in days. My body was heavy, every joint aching, and even turning my head felt like work. For a second, I just lay there, staring at the ceiling, wondering if I even had the energy to get up.The pills the doctor gave me sat on the bedside table. I reached for them, my hand trembling, and swallowed them with a little water. They didn’t help. If anything, the throbbing in my head felt sharper.I pushed myself out of bed and dragged my feet to the bathroom, hoping cold water on my face would help. But halfway through, a cough hit me so hard I had to grip the sink. One cough. Two. Three—until I tasted metal.When I looked down, there it was. Blood.I froze. My heartbeat sped up, and for a second, I just stared at it like maybe I was imagining it. Then I quickly turned on the tap, rinsing it away before I could think too much about it. I didn’t want to panic… but this wasn’t something I could ignore.I grabbed my k

    Chapter 119: Secret Cracks . Valerie’s Pov The truth was, every second I stayed here, it felt like Vicky was somewhere else… smiling. Winning. Living. That thought burned hotter than anything. I slipped my shoes back on and headed for the door.“Where are you going?” Williams’ voice cut through the hallway.I stopped just short of the door and glanced over my shoulder. He was leaning against the wall, looking like he hadn’t slept in days, but there was nothing in his face that said he cared about me — not even after what had just “happened.”“To put petrol on fire,” I said plainly, my hand still on the doorknob.He stared at me for a moment like he wanted to ask more, but as usual, he didn’t. Williams was far too wrapped up in whatever was going on in his own head to bother. Fine by me.The moment I was in the car, I pulled out my phone and dialed Sienna. She picked up almost immediately, her tone soft and dripping with sympathy.“Oh, Val… I heard. I’m so sorry. I can’t even imagine

    Chapter 118: The Vicky in marriage . Valerie’s POVI didn’t even know when my hand lifted.But the moment her words dropped like a hammer in the bathroom, I turned and slapped her.A sharp, loud slap that echoed against the tiles.Talia barely flinched. She just blinked and looked at me, her expression unreadable.And I—God—I broke.I burst into tears, right there in front of her.“I lost my child, Talia!” I shouted between sobs, gripping the edge of the sink for support. “I lost my baby and you’re blaming me like I wanted this to happen! You think this is a joke?”Talia’s face didn’t change. It was like she didn’t believe me. Like she saw right through me. But she didn’t say another word.The door creaked open and Melanie and Brielle rushed in, both looking startled.“What the hell is going on?” Melanie asked, grabbing my arm and guiding me toward the sink.“She slapped Talia,” Brielle whispered behind me, eyes darting between us.“She accused me,” I choked out. “She stood there and

    Chapter 117: TaliaValerie’s POVI knew they were coming.I had barely dropped the news in the group chat when Melanie sent a bunch of crying emojis and said they were on their way. I didn’t even bother to respond. I just muted the chat, dimmed the lights in the living room, and put The Vampire Diaries on. Damon’s sarcasm always did something for me. Maybe it was the distraction, maybe it was the fact that he looked like someone who wouldn’t care if you did something bad.The show had just started getting interesting when I heard the knock. I didn’t panic. I grabbed the remote, paused the episode, and tossed the throw blanket around me like I had been shivering under it all day. I even practiced my sad face in the black TV screen. Tilted my head. Blank eyes. Maybe a tear if they stayed long enough.The door creaked open and the familiar voices came flooding in. They were here . “Oh my God, Valerie,” Melanie said first. She rushed over and wrapped her arms around me like I was about t

    Chapter 116: What do Rich people like to do ? VICKYThe car ride was calm for a while. Just the soft hum of the engine and the city lights stretching endlessly ahead. Bella had just been dropped off. She’d spent the entire ride teasing Rue like she always did, joking about how love was glowing on his skin like expensive moisturizer.“Don’t forget sunscreen,” she’d said with a wink. “Your man-glow is blinding.”“ Please leave my car “ Rue chuckled. “ See you guys later …” “ Byeee Bells” i smiled waving her off . She was absolutely ridiculous — but in the best way. I was going to miss her voice in the back seat.Now, with just me and Rue in the car, it was quieter. Comfortable. I rested my head lightly against the window, watching the world blur by, until I turned to him.“I’ve been meaning to tell you something,” I said.Rue glanced at me, his hand resting on the steering wheel casually. “Something serious?”“Kinda.” I sat up straighter. “It’s about williams’s company?” “ Will i b
