A Warning from Seven Years Ahead Chapter 9
After that day, Caleb stopped showing up in person.However, that didn't mean he left me alone.Before long, Wheeler Enterprise approached my studio with a massive collaboration offer. The terms were so generous that it barely felt like a business deal and more like a gift.The compensation was five times the industry's highest rate, and there were no restrictions on the creative direction.In front of my assistant, I wrote "Declined" across the proposal and sent it back.Eventually, Caleb couldn't help himself. He called my private number.I answered, but I couldn't even be bothered to hold the phone to my ear. I put it on speaker and left it on the desk.His tentative voice came through the speaker, with wind and rain roaring in the background as though he were standing in the rain."Delilah, it's just a business deal. Wheeler Enterprise needs a talented designer, and you could use the resources. Please don't turn it down.""No. I already told you to stay out of my life."A

Caleb stood frozen, unable to say a single word in his defense. He could only stare at me as tears streamed down his face.The regret in his eyes made me sick.I said calmly, "In the first life, you cheated on me after we got married. You shut me out, drove me into postpartum depression, and pushed me to swallow an entire bottle of sleeping pills. "In the second life, you kept taking Savannah's side and allowed her to torment me. When it mattered most, you chose to save her again."You made every one of those choices, so don't stand here pretending you're the victim."With every word, his face grew paler, and his body began to sway."You've already ruined my life twice. So I'm begging you, Caleb. Just leave me alone. I really hate you."Caleb said nothing. He only walked toward me in a daze.His trembling hand reached for mine.Before he could touch me, I pulled away, walked out, and slammed the door behind me.Ten years had passed. I would never go back to a man like him.

"This fabric won't work. I asked for material number 32."And this sample is supposed to be coral, not this dull, muddy red. Send it back and have the manufacturer redo it. If they still can't get it right, find another supplier."One more thing. Inspect every garment again. Nothing can go wrong at this fashion show."My assistant stood beside me, hardly daring to breathe as she wrote down every instruction.The moment I finished, someone knocked lightly on the office door. The receptionist poked her head inside, looking uneasy."Ms. Hanson, I'm sorry to interrupt. The CEO of Wheeler Enterprise flew in from overseas without an appointment. He says he wants to see you, and that... The two of you knew each other years ago."My fingers tightened around the proposal in my hands, and I took a slow breath.I knew this day would come."Got it," I said calmly. "Have him wait in Conference Room Three. I'll see him in an hour. Let's continue."By the time the meeting ended, 45 minutes

The revelation struck Caleb like a blow to the head.Seven years ago? Delilah got into a truck accident and disappeared?Fragments of conflicting memories surged through his mind, twisting together until he could no longer tell what was real."Argh!"Caleb clutched his head and let out a tortured cry before collapsing backward. He lost consciousness again and sank into a long, terrible dream.In it, he saw two different versions of himself.In the first, he was naked in bed with Savannah. He watched himself climb out of bed and look coldly at Delilah, eight months pregnant and crumpled in the doorway with blood pooling beneath her.He saw himself scowling in irritation and accusing her of being dramatic.He saw Andy call Savannah "Mom."Then, he saw Delilah swallow an entire bottle of sleeping pills and die alone on the floor.The dream dragged on, cold and merciless, each scene cutting into him until the pain became unbearable.Then everything shifted, and he saw the second

Caleb's legs gave out. All the dread he had been holding back crashed over him at once.He collapsed to the floor and crawled toward my body. With trembling hands, he pulled back the white sheet.My face was completely colorless. When he touched me, my skin was ice-cold.Behind him, one of the paramedics let out a quiet sigh."Mrs. Wheeler had a history of severe depression and had struggled with suicidal thoughts. Someone in that condition shouldn't be left alone for long. Even a brief moment can be enough for them to..."Caleb could no longer hear him. He stared at my closed eyes, unable to breathe, as though an invisible hand had torn his heart apart.A moment later, he collapsed and lost consciousness.When he woke, the sharp smell of antiseptic filled his nose. The instant he regained consciousness, he threw off the covers and stumbled out of bed.Without looking, he ripped the IV from the back of his hand. Blood welled from the puncture.He grabbed the young nurse who ha
A Warning from Seven Years Ahead Chapter 4
Seven years in the future, Caleb stared at the dozen unanswered calls he had made to me, unease tightening in his chest.I had never acted like this before.Usually, I would fall apart. I bombarded him with calls and messages, demanding to know how much longer he planned to torture me, why he had cheated, and why he was treating me this way. Then I cried and begged him to come home.Today, however, there was nothing.An entire day had passed, and I hadn't sent a single text, much less called him.Caleb could no longer sit still. He got up, put on his coat, and walked past Savannah, who was holding Andy as they watched cartoons."I'm going home for a while. You stay here and spend time with Andy."Savannah immediately stood and blocked his path."What's wrong? Is Delilah having another breakdown?"We finally got to take a trip together. Just ignore her. She does this every time, making threats and acting like she's going to hurt herself. "If you give in now, she'll only do
