last update Last Updated: 2025-04-26 15:10:32

I spent the rest of my time with Grandma, catching up and making her feel better. A couple of times, the nurses had come in to check her vitals and make sure that she was responding well to the medicine that they were administering to her.

She seemed to be getting better and I was glad. After a while, I stood, getting ready to take my leave.

“Grandma, I’ll miss you.” I sighed, an apparent frown on my face as I held my bag to my body tightly. Every single nerve in my body just wanted me to sit back down, and stay with Grandma up until daybreak. But, I had work, and just being given this new position, I couldn’t slack off so early.

“I’ll miss you too, my sweet.” I leaned over and she gave me a kiss on the forehead, her warm hands cupping my face. “And do greet my darling, Blake, for me, would you? I still don’t understand why he had to leave in such a hurry.”

I chuckled nervously. “You know h

    AVAThe car's engine purred softly as Alexander started it up. I sat back silently, this scene feeling all too familiar.My blood was still rushing from the thrill and excitement, while my hand shook in anger. I really wished I hadn't helped Chloe out, and the feeling of regret settled in faster than I could even comprehend.These were the issues. I scoffed as I mentally facepalmed myself.I was too nice. And that was mostly taken for granted.“Who does that girl think she is?” I scoffed again in disbelief, pulling my setabelt and keying it in.“Nobody.” Alexander responded with a dead serious face. As he set the car in motion, reversing out of the car park, I couldn't help but look at him. He stared right back and we both burst into laughter.“I can't believe she still thinks I want him? Can you believe it?” I laughed, clutching onto my stomach.“She's crazy,” He murmured, drifti

    AVAThe more I looked at the screen the surer I was that it was nothing near a joke.The picture was from a while ago, and I had never even expected him to still have the image. But, here it was. Ogling me down.A flood of comments was already rolling in, as I scrolled through the post:‘OMG! Congratulations!’‘You guys are made for each other! Xoxo’‘Ava is so lucky to have a man like you!!!’Lucky? I bitterly laughed. I was far from lucky with this manipulative, cunning bastard!And I was so sure that I’d made my message clear enough for him back at the hospital. Unfortunately, all my words went through one ear and out the other. He didn’t listen, he never did. Was this man set to ruin my damn life?Without thinking, I called him.“WHAT THE HELL BLAKE?!”~An uneasy bubble of tension lingered above everyone’s heads as I walked into t

    BLAKEI reclined in my office seat, propping my legs up on the table. This wasn’t how I expected my day to go, but here I was. I scrolled through my phone with cautious eyes as I hummed a familiar tune—a song that Ava and I used to sing together.Over the past few days, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t get her out of my head. She was perfect for me—the one.And I knew that I fucked up. I knew that I made her hurt in so many ways, but that was the least of my intentions. All I ever wanted was for her to feel safe with me, but like I always did, I’d ruined it all in one go.My stomach grumbled in uneasiness as I navigated back to my profile to check the engagement post. Although Ava wanted it gone, I still decided to keep it up. I didn’t want to take it down. No, I wanted the world to know that she was mine, and I was hers.She could’ve requested anything else, but as far as I was concerned, the post wasn’t coming down. I scrolled up and searched for the post. It was supposed to b

    AVAI tossed around in my bed as I felt the morning rays hit my skin. It was only Saturday and I wasn’t planning on waking up early, but nature seemed to have other plans for me. The sparrow birds were busy chirping away their morning songs by the window sills.With a groan, I grabbed a pillow from the other side of my bed and used it to cover my ears. I kicked my feet fussily, hoping the birds to go away and give me some quiet so I could return to my sweet sleep, but they kept chirping annoyingly. In fact, it felt like more joined in.I got off the bed with a sigh and shooed them away from my window.By this time, I was well awake. I stretched my bones with a yawn and did a few more exercises before going to pull the curtains properly open.“Rise and shine baby. Today’s gonna be a beautiful day.” I hummed to myself.Just then, I heard my phone beep behind me. I rushed to pick it up and unlocked my it eagerly, hoping it was some shipping update because I placed an order for something

    AVA“Wow, it’s beautiful.” I breathed to myself as my hands dancing over the exquisite fabric.I about to take the dress off of the hanger when I watched another hand appear in the line of my vision only to snatch the dress away from my hands.“Okay, what the actual hell?” I said in surprise, turning to see the face of the one who nearly ripped out my manicure in the rudest way possible.“That dress is mine.” I immediately went on to add, staring at the lady in annoyance.“But I got to it first,” she sneered, dangling the dress right in front of my face.I was about to say something else when I began to notice how familiar the face was. I definitely saw this face at the wedding with Alexander.Wasn’t this Alexander’s niece? What was her name again? Lilian?Lilith!Now realizing it was indeed her. I let go of the dress, although not in the least satisfied with whatever was happening regardless of what the coincidence may be.“Lillith? What are you doing here?” I asked.“What are you do

    AVAI couldn't stay here another second. Not with my dress hanging in tatters, my dignity in shreds, and Alexander and Sara watching the whole humiliating scene unfold. With shaking hands, I snatched my purse from where it had fallen during the scuffle and tried to adjust what was left of my sleeve.“I asked what the hell is going on here,” Alexander repeated. There was a gruffness in his tone that made everywhere seem cold.Lilith's demeanor had completely changed, her earlier confidence evaporating under Alexander's steely gaze.“It was just a little misunderstan—“Before Lilith could finish that statement I slapped her hard across the face. My palm stung, but it was nothing compared to the burning rage inside me.How dare she try to call the harassment a misunderstanding?I guess some of the rage was coming from the fact that Alexander was here with Sara. Sara. Why was he still with her if he cared about me as much as he said?“Don't you ever try that shit with me again,” I hissed

    AVA“I had sex with Alexander.”The words hung in my mind, unspoken yet so vivid. I could almost hear myself say them out loud. What would Blake’s face look like if I actually said it aloud? Would his perfect composure finally crack? Would he feel a fraction of the gut-wrenching pain I experienced when I caught him with Chloe?I imagined him hardening his knuckles on the steering wheel, the muscle in his jaw twitching the way it did whenever he was truly furious. Maybe he'd slam on the brakes, yell at me and demand to know every detail just to torture himself with it. The thought gave me a twisted sense of satisfaction. That feeling of letting him know what it felt like to be the one left wondering. How it felt to be the one picturing someone else’s hands on the person they loved.But the words remained trapped behind my clenched teeth.Not because I cared about sparing his feelings, but because something inside me refused to turn Alexander into a weapon.Whatever had happened between

    AVAI slammed my apartment door shut behind me and collapsed against it, sliding down until I hit the floor. My clothes still clung to my skin, rain-soaked and heavy and my hand still tingled from the slap I'd delivered to Blake's face.“Don't tell me you two have been fucking behind my back.”His accusation echoed in my head, drilling into the very part of me that carried the guilt of what had happened with Alexander. Not that Blake deserved my loyalty after what he'd done, but the fact that he'd zeroed in on my secret with such precision made me feel transparent.I pushed myself up from the floor, my limbs leaden with exhaustion. Water dripped from my hair, creating dark splotches on the hardwood. I flung my purse on the kitchen counter and trudged towards my bedroom, peeling off my wet jacket along the way.I cranked the shower in the bathroom to the hottest setting and stripped off the rest of my clothes.The room was soon filled with steam as I stepped into the shower. Then I san

    “I don't want any relationship with you beyond necessary company communications. I hope you respect my wishes.”“Ava, please. I know I made mistakes, terrible mistakes that I can't take back. But I'm trying to be better.”I maintained my distance, arms crossed. “This isn't about your personal growth journey, Blake. It's about consequences.”“I recognize that. I threw away the one person I loved most. And I regret it every single day.For a moment, I could almost see the true cost of his actions reflected in his expression. But I was no longer the woman who would sacrifice herself on the altar of his redemption.“I can't help you feel better about what you did,” I said. “And I won't absolve you, either.”“That's not what I'm asking for.” He reached for my hand, stopping just short of touching me when I pulled back. “I just want another chance to show you who I

    I got a vacation, which made me happy, but not as happy as having Alexander beside me. He was out at a business conference.Three days into my supposed break, I finished reviewing all the board presentation materials twice and fielded endless calls from Annalise about last-minute details.I was now at Silverpine Beach, and the reason I was here was currently not answering her phone.I dialed Granny's number again as I drove up to her cottage. Still no answer and that was not unusual because sometimes she was just asleep.I parked outside, walked up to the house and took the spare key still inside the conch shell by the door.“Granny?” I called, dropping my bag in the entryway. “It's Ava.”On going in, I noticed it looked like no one was home“Granny? Are you here?”When I got no answer and she was nowhere around the house I began to feel uneasy. I even glanced into the garden through the back

After three months of practically living here, it still felt strange to call it ‘home,’ although Alexander’s been pushing for me to make it official.My phone buzzed with a text from Annalise, which was a follow-up to our strategy meeting that afternoon.****Board meeting confirmed for Thursday. Blake is requesting to address directors privately beforehand. Red flag?***I typed back quickly. ***Definitely. Can we get someone in that meeting?******Working on it. Dinner tomorrow to finalize?******Perfect. My place, 7pm.***I set the phone down, glancing at the clock.Alexander's flight from Tokyo would be landing soon. After a week away, I wanted to surprise him with dinner—something simple but thoughtful. The refrigerator yielded ingredients for his favorite pasta dish.I pulled my hair into

    AVAI slid my sunglasses from my face, hooking them into the neckline of my blouse as I approached the reception desk.The woman behind it smiled at me.“Good morning. How may I help you?”“I'm looking for Annalise Morris. Does she still work here?”The receptionist's smile tightened slightly. “Is there a particular issue I can help you with?”“No issue. I'm a friend of hers.” I returned her smile. “You can just let her know I'm around.”As the receptionist made a call, I turned to survey the lobby.Annalise and I used to be good friends and business partners before Blake's manipulation drove a wedge between us.We worked at the company together and until Blake stepped in and suggested I stepped back to focus on my health. He also kept planting seeds of doubt about Annalise's, which escalated over months until I was convinced my best friend was undercutting me.

    AVAI woke up slowly. Then there came the pleasant ache in my muscles.I opened my eyes to find Alexander watching me, his head propped on one hand, dark hair deliciously mussed from sleep and other activities.The morning stubble along his jaw gave him a rougher edge than his usual polished appearance.“Jesus,” I gasped, jerking slightly. “You scared me.”“Sorry.” He smiled but he didn't sound sorry at all.His touched my waist from under the sheets and his thumb traced idle circles on the bare skin above my hip bone.“How long have you been watching me sleep like some kind of gorgeous creep?” I asked, my voice still rough with sleep.“I don't know. Fifteen minutes, maybe.”His eyes traveled over my face with shameless appreciation. “You talk in your sleep.”“I do not,”I answered quickly.“You do. Something about dolp

    AVA“What!”Three steps brought him within arm's reach of me.“You heard me,” I replied, feeling strangely detached from the chaos swirling around us.His adam's apple bobbed under the collar of his shirt. “Have you been playing me this entire time?”I laughed. “Don't act like an innocent puppy, Blake. I was only playing your game. The one you taught me when you fucked another woman behind my back for months.”Charles made a strangled sound from somewhere behind Blake.Isabella didn’t really seem surprised because I already told her happened.“You want to know the secret Sara was threatening to expose? I'll tell you myself. I slept with Alexander the night of your father's wedding.”Blake's face went instantly pale.I turned to Isabella with a pang of genuine regret even though I was satisfied to have let that out.“I'm sorry you had to hear this. But that was the same night I caught Blake making out with a married woman on the terrace. I had to leave because I couldn't take it. I got

And I wouldn't let a woman I love suffer at the hands of someone like Blake when I have the power to stop it.”Love. He loved me…?The word landed like a stone in still water, and it sent ripples through everything I thought I understood about us.I stared at him and there was only raw sincerity in his eyes, which scared me more than any threat could have.The truth was…I did feel something for Alexander.But I never allowed myself to fully acknowledge it or name it or trust it. Even now, standing here soaked to the skin with the taste of him still on my lips, I was afraid to admit how deep it went.“We should…” I swallowed hard, “We should find somewhere to dry off.”Alexander still kept his eyes on me for a while longer before he nodded, although made no move to lead us back toward the vil

    AVAMy cheek throbbed the same rhythm with my heartbeat as I walked away from the hospital.How much more could I take? I walked into this situation willingly, eyes wide open, calculating the costs against the potential gains. I believed getting close to Blake again would help me reclaim what belonged to my family. But so much had happened so far that I didn’t even see it coming. Sara's vindictiveness and Blake's violence for example.Maybe there was another way to get my assets back that didn't require subjecting myself to Blake or Sara.The beach ahead of me was empty, save for one solitary figure standing at the edge of the water. I almost turned in another direction, but it wasn’t like Alexander owned the ocean after all.I headed towards the beach but stopped several yards away from him. The waves crashed over the water just as the cool breeze aided my stinging cheek.I didn’t look at Alexander and made sure my eyes were on the horizon where water met sky.I could see him studyin

    ALEXANDER“Tell me.”“The test results are out, sir. It's been confirmed that the child she was carrying is not yours,” Matthew said over the phone.I closed my eyes briefly in relief, which was immediately followed by cold anger. Sara nearly succeeded in her plan to hold me hostage with the welfare of an innocent child.“She thought I was a fool,” I said quietly, more to myself than to Matthews.The level of calculation required to orchestrate this deception was quite impressive, if I must admit.I needed to put that woman in her place for good. No child meant no obligation, and no obligation meant Sara would finally face the consequences of her actions.Matthews's voice pulled me back from my thoughts. “There’s a second update, about Ms. Winters.”My attention sharpened instantly. “Go on.”“She’s been digging into Blake finances and financial dealings as of late.
