A few days after her full recovery from depression and hallucinations, Yvonne was finally ready to return to school. As she stepped onto the school premises, the hurt in Lily and Jack's eyes surfaced in her mind, making her heart sink.

Her thoughts drifted to her sessions with Amy. Amy had helped her realize that the children were essentially strangers. While she had the free will to love them, she shouldn't let them be a source of pain and torment. Amy also pointed out that the twins wouldn't be happy to know they had hurt their beloved teacher.

Yvonne gulped, bracing herself to face the children, but to her relief, they weren't in class. At first, it was a comfort. The children chanted her name in excitement, pleased to see her return. However, as soon as they started discussing how the twins wouldn't be a reason for their sweet teacher to scold them anymore, Yvonne grew confused. She checked the children's records, only to realize that Lily and Jack had been absent since the day af

    Before the situation escalated to the point of the authority's arrival, The sound of Sammy’s scream carried into the neighbourhood like a distress flare, drawing curious eyes from across the street. Curtains parted one by one. Before long, figures gathered at the edges of the yard, whispering, craning their necks to get a better look.David’s gut clenched. This was the last thing he wanted—an audience.Sammy, though, fed on it. She had almost forgotten how easy it was to get what she wanted. She couldn’t recall the last time she was forced to use a forceful method to get what she wanted: that doesn't mean she had lost the skill though.Since David isn't planning to take her in peace, she will make sure he had no choice but to forgive her and see that all she did was for his sake, their sake.So they could be together. Sensing the eyes on her, she doubled down, her body collapsing against the doorway as though she were the victim of some unspeakable cruelty. She clawed at the wood aga

    Sammy’s laugh rose, bubbling from her chest like something feral, grotesque. It was a sound David had never heard from her before—low, throaty, jagged, as though scraped raw from the pit of her lungs. The kind of laugh that didn’t belong to someone in pain, but to someone who had already crossed the line between reason and madness.David froze, every nerve in his body bristling with unease. He felt the air around them thicken, as though the house itself held its breath.“Sammy…” his voice was sharp, warning. “Stop this nonsense.”But she didn’t.She tilted her head back, a few stands of her hair clinging to her now perspiring cheeks, tears mixing with saliva as the laughter tore out of her. It wasn’t joy, wasn’t amusement—it was desperation in its purest, ugliest form.Finally, she rose from the floor and lifted her gaze to him, her eyes wild, gleaming with something unhinged. “You think you can throw me away?” she whispered, though her lips curved into a smile too wide, too broken.D

    The dim hush of the living room was steeped in silence—broken only by the soft creak of the old wooden ceiling fan above David’s head. At some point, he had changed position. He now sat curled on the edge of the couch, arms wrapped around his knees, staring at nothing yet seeing everything. Yvonne’s laugh still echoed faintly in his head. They way she tried so hard. Poured all her attention on him as if afraid to do anything but that. The scent of her lavender lotion still lingered in the folds of the throw pillows. Memories clung to every corner like shadows that refused to fade. And guilt—it smothered him. He had come, driven by a message from her number—perhaps foolishly hoping for a second chance, a proper goodbye, anything that resembled closure. But the house had been empty. No Yvonne. Only the ghosts of what could have been. His heart ached with a pain he had no right to feel. He didn’t know how long he’d been there, time had blurred. He had considered leavi

    The weekend had arrived, and while Yvonne spent hers basking in warmth with Amy and the children—cradled in laughter and the scent of baby powder—Micheal was a man at war.Not with guns or fists, but with intellect and vengeance sharper than steel.Sammy was the target.David and Sammy’s relationship had crumbled like sandcastles against a cruel tide. The day David walked out, he had every intention of returning home to unleash the full force of his fury. But the deeper he thought about her deceit, the more corrosive his rage became. And so, instead of a confrontation, he packed a few clothes and left.What Sammy didn’t know was that Micheal had planned every step of her downfall.He had studied her like a case file—every trauma, every scar, every twisted corner of her mind.Samantha Johnson.The only child.The adored.The manipulator.The ticking time bomb.She had been coddled since birth, taught that the world bent to her whims. And when it didn’t, she had learned to force it. Scr

    The soft lull of baby coos and distant giggles filtered through the walls of Amy’s apartment like a comforting hum. Sunlight spilled across the terrace where Yvonne sat beside her best friend, the light brushing her skin like a balm she didn’t know she needed.The twins were inside, nestled beside Mark on the carpet as they marvelled over baby Joel, who lay swaddled like a blessing between them. The child was a miracle. Amy’s miracle. And somehow, seeing them all together — Mark’s hand steady on Jack’s shoulder, Lily whispering to the baby as if he understood — made something in Yvonne settle.But beneath that peace, there was a tightness in her chest she hadn’t yet unpacked.Amy reached for her glass of tea and tilted her head, watching her friend closely. “You’ve been quiet,” she said softly.Yvonne blinked as if surfacing from deep within her thoughts. Her hand moved almost absently to her lap, where something shimmered beneath the sleeve of her cardigan. She pushed it back, reveal

  • Billionaire Daddy for sale    Her wish and His.

    For a long, precious moment, they stayed like that—wrapped in each other’s warmth, the world and its troubles falling away as they clung together in the quiet of the garden. The soft breeze stirred the petals of nearby flowers, and the gentle rustle of leaves became the only witness to their embrace.Micheal, who had felt the cold grip of hopelessness for so long, finally found a flicker of strength. Slowly, hesitantly, he pulled back just enough to see her face. His hands rose to cup her cheeks, his thumbs brushing along her soft skin as he gazed deep into her eyes—eyes that held so much pain, so much love, so much resilience. His own eyes shimmered with raw emotion, his voice unsteady.“Can you allow me… to make amends for everything that’s happened?” he asked, his voice barely more than a breath. “I want to spend the rest of my life replacing all your hurt with happiness. I can’t lose you, baby.” His voice broke as his nose twitched with the effort to hold back his tears.Yvonne’s
