Marcus went quiet.

"Be careful with him, Monique."

"Of course. Always"

Marcus’s voice hardened slightly. “Okay, but remember our plan. You have to make sure the police remember this moment and that they remember you, so that when anything happens in the future, there’s a public record.”

“I know. I’m not stupid. I’m not going to read Ryan's report from start to finish. I’m going to improvise on it a little.”

“Yes, that’s good. That’s right, precious,” he said, his voice softening.

I let out a quiet breath, feeling a small spark of reassurance. At least here, with Marcus, I had someone I could trust, someone who would see through Ryan’s control and manipulation.

“Thank you,” I said softly. “And… I miss you so much.”

“Don’t worry,” he replied without hesitation, his voice warm and steady. “I’m going to be with you every step of the way. I’ll be there with you, even if you don't see me, you'll feel my presence.”

I nodded instinctively, even though he couldn’t see me. “Thank you. It means

    MONIQUEI guess we were doing this, I had to tell her the truth“I know I’m not giving him power of attorney like I did Ryan, but it feels the same. Different language, same control.”She frowned. “Your father let him handle all his legal matters too, Monique.”“I know. But I don’t want that. I want him to handle my inheritance and the divorce. If I need him for something else, I’ll call him. I’ll pay him monthly to be my backup lawyer. I just don’t want someone having every part of my life at the tip of their fingers.”That was my problem with the document.My aunt went quiet for a moment after that. She leaned back in her chair, the paper resting in her hand, and studied me for a second before she asked,“Does this have to do with Marcus?”“What?” I asked with a frown. How did she get to Marcus? I wondered.“What do you mean?” I asked again.“Is Marcus the one who told you not to give Mr Smith all these powers? Is that it? Did he tell you this was too much? Did he put it in your hea

    MONIQUEThe moment they were gone, my aunt turned fully toward me.“What’s going on, Monique? What have you done now?”I swallowed. “Can you sit down?” I asked quietly.“No, I’m not going to sit down,” she snapped. “You make another decision without telling me anything, and I thought we were making all the decisions together.""We are, Aunty. We are, okay? Don’t make this such a big deal. He is only here for security.” She paused, then frowned. “Personal security, isn’t that like a bodyguard? What the hell?”“Yes,” I said softly. “A bodyguard.”“Why do you even need a bodyguard, Monique?” she demanded.“Look, Aunt Jane.” I started, my voice already shaking. “I know we both went through hell together, but I’m just.....”I closed my eyes for a second before opening them again. “I’m scared, Auntie. Okay?”Her face changed instantly. The sharpness melted away as she came toward me and pulled out the chair beside mine, sitting close.“What are you afraid of, darling?” she asked gently.“R

    MONIQUEThe maids quickly left, and Nadia immediately started preparing breakfast for me.“Are you going to have your breakfast in the dining room?” she asked. “I can bring it in for you.”“No, it’s okay,” I said. “I’ll just have it here.”She nodded and quickly set everything up.I ate while Nadia and my aunt talked, sharing little stories, trying to include me in the conversation. And it was good to be included. It felt… nice.I realised I hated being alone now.Most of the time when I was married to Ryan, he liked us being apart. He told me he was working, sending me off to different places, leaving me alone to make friends I would never meet again.This felt different.This felt peaceful.Once I was done eating, my aunt turned toward me.“So,” she said, “what are we doing today?”“Well, you already know I’m getting a divorce,” I said. “And I already told you what happened with Mr Smith. He sent Marcus the retainer agreement. I left it in the dining room. I’m going to read it over,

    MONIQUENico then left the room, leaving me with a big smile on my face.... This must be love, playing on my head.I quickly went into the closet. I didn't want him to come back and find me in the towel. I was going to put on his shirt before I went downstairs to my bedroom and changed. And guess what surprise I found in Marcus's closet? There were a few dresses on one side of his closet. Five dresses, two pairs of shoes, some night wear, even pants and bras.Okay, I know this doesn't scream move into my room, but it screams she's going to be sleeping here, and I like it.So I quickly get changed when I hear Marcus come back into the bedroom.“Precious,” he calls to me.I smile to myself as I walk back into the room. “Yes, darling,” I answer back with a smile.He smiles back. “Here is the retainer agreement from Mr Smith.”“Have you read it?” I asked him.“Yes, I went over it yesterday.”“And what do you think?”He looks at me for a few seconds before he smiles.“What?” I ask unsure w

    MONIQUEMarcus's expression changed instantly. His face turned into something sharper, protective.“That's not going to happen,” he said firmly. He caught my face in his hands, forcing me to look at him. “Listen to me, Monique. You're not going anywhere alone, okay? From now on, you're not going anywhere alone. The driver will take you straight to Mrs Smith's office and wait for you there. He will not leave. If Ryan so much as breathes in your direction, you call me immediately, okay?”I swallowed. “But what if.... the driver will be down there, you don't know Ryan. The last time, I thought I was getting rid of him. And then what happened? I don't think that if he takes me this time, I'll be able to survive it.”“There is no what if,” Marcus cut in. “Ryan will not get access to you anymore. Not physically, not emotionally, and not legally. That ended the moment you walked into my house.”“You know what,” he said, taking his phone from his pocket. “I'm going to assign a bodyguard for

    MONIQUEHe laughed this time. “I can’t imagine your aunt walking into your bedroom and finding me in there. She will lose it.”I couldn’t help myself, I laughed too.Without waiting for him to answer, I turned and started walking toward his bedroom, holding his hand. Of course, he had to follow.When we reached his bedroom, I went to use the bathroom first and took a shower. I came back wrapped in a towel while he excused himself and went in after me. I went to his closet, chose a T-shirt, and put it on. It reached my thighs, almost like a dress. I walked back into the bedroom and pulled the blankets over me, intending to wait for Marcus to come back from the bathroom.But I guess I was too tired. Because when I woke up in the morning, I was by myself. For a second, I thought Marcus hadn’t slept in the bed at all. But then I noticed his side, rumpled sheets, disturbed pillows. And then I heard the water running in the bathroom.I sighed and took a deep breath. Because if he had left a
