A Mother's Bond Chapter 12
I hired a lawyer to draft a divorce agreement and sent it to Jasper, but he refused to sign. He kept sending letters, apologizing and begging me to visit. I went. His eyes lit up when he saw me, just as they had when we first met. He reached through the bars, trying to take my hand. I pulled away. "Honey, I just wasn't in the right mind. I swear. Please don't divorce me. Wait five years for me. When I get out, I'll spend the rest of my life making it up to you..." I stared at him and gave a cold laugh. "Jasper, after you went to prison, the police gave me your phone. Do I need to remind you what you and Amanda talked about? What you said about me? "You knew exactly what you were doing. You planned this all along. You even planned how to hurt me, didn't you?" He and Amanda had planned to secretly give me a psychiatric drug after killing Ethan. Taken during extreme emotional distress, it would gradually make a person to eventually lose their mind. They had even already pick

It was Amanda who had charged at me as I fixed my eyes on her, and she was even holding a sharp knife in her hand. Before I could even react, Jacqueline shoved me aside and stepped in front of me. Amanda plunged the knife into her abdomen. Passersby's faces instantly went pale, screaming and backing away with their hands over their heads. Realizing she had stabbed the wrong person, Amanda pulled the knife out and tried to charge at me again. I stepped forward and punched her elbow, hitting a nerve and numbing her hand. The knife clattered to the ground. I held her tightly and shouted to the people around us. "Call the police! Call an ambulance! Please!" The security guards from our apartment complex ran over and restrained Amanda. She was still laughing maniacally. "You deserve all of this, you old hag! Oliver was your grandson too! He would've lived if it weren't for you! You killed your own grandson! You deserve to go to hell!" Jacqueline lay on the ground, clutching he

Ethan climbed out of bed, rubbing his eyes. "Mommy, why are you and Grandma crying? Where did Daddy go?" I pulled him into my arms, thrilled to hear him speaking so clearly again. "I'm so sorry, Ethan. I almost hurt you… I almost lost you." He patted my back. "I'll always be with you, Mommy. You'll never lose me." Jacqueline wiped away her tears. "Take him to the hospital for a checkup. We need to make sure this doesn't leave him with any lasting problems." I drove her and Ethan to the hospital. While he was being examined, something occurred to me. "Jacqueline, is one of your cousins a patient here?" She looked startled. "How did you know?" "Jasper told me. He said you and your cousin used to be involved, and you were stealing Ethan's soul to save him." I watched her face as I spoke. After everything that had happened over the past few days, I couldn't trust anyone completely. I knew Jasper and the others had tried to hurt Ethan. But what about his mother? What if they
A Mother's Bond Chapter 9
Seeing how exhausted Amanda looked softened Jasper's heart. He figured that since he had already married me, I would still have a family even if Ethan died. Amanda had nothing but Oliver. He believed I owed Amanda and should be the one to pay her back. So, he made Ethan drink the water with the talisman dissolved in it. When Jacqueline came to visit, she sensed the problem at once. She secretly cast a protective circle in our home to keep his soul in his body. While she searched for a solution, she patted Ethan's back to call back the fragments of his soul as they began to leave his body. Her patting kept and protected the very last fragment inside him. But Oliver couldn't wait any longer. That was why they had Celia pose as a kind stranger to stop me and give me those seven candles. It was called Mother's Bond Candle, and it would only work if I lit it myself. Once all seven candles burned out, the last fragment of Ethan's soul would leave his body for good. He had onl

When the police came in, I handed over the footage from the bedroom security camera. "They just admitted they tried to kill my son." Jasper came to his senses and grabbed my arm. "Lynn... No, Honey, I just wasn't thinking straight! Don't do this. Ethan's fine, isn't he? Tell them that! Please!" It was quite ironic to hear him call me honey, there was a mockery inside of me. When I first agreed to date him, he would call me honey all day, every day. After we got married, he stopped. He even refused to let me call him honey. "It's too cheesy. Why not just use our names? We both have nice names," he said. Only when Amanda called him "honey" on the phone did I understand. He had never thought it was too cheesy. He had simply saved the endearment for someone else. I pulled my hand free, my face blank. I did not want to say a word. He and Amanda's mother, Celia, cried and shouted as the police took them away. Jacqueline's eyes reddened as she fell to her knees in front of me. "
A Mother's Bond Chapter 7
Amanda's name flashed on the screen of Jasper's phone. Jasper scowled and tried to push me out of his way from entering the door. "Lynn, are you done? Just because I married you, I can't even take a call from another woman anymore?" I tilted my head. "Of course you can. So why won't you answer it in front of me? What are you afraid of?" "What would I be afraid of..." Before he could finish, Jacqueline rushed over and snatched his phone. She picked it up and put it on speaker. Amanda's desperate sobs came through. "Honey, Oliver suddenly passed out, and the doctor said... Said he's dead! "Why weren't you answering my calls? What are you and my mom doing? Didn't you say our son would be saved once the last stick of candle burned out? "Couldn't you bring yourself to sacrifice that witch Lynn's son? Did you change your mind? Say something!" Jasper snapped out of it and snatched the phone back, hanging up. He grabbed Jacqueline by the arms and shook her violently, like a cra
