•Juliet's POV•

The cool evening air brushed against my face, pushing strands of my hair into my eyes. I brushed them away and tucked them behind my ear. As I walked further, James took the lead, his hands shoved into his pockets, giving me a full view of his back.

I quickly looked away, scolding myself for staring at him that much. I was supposed to act like a boss lady, not some drooling teenager. I focused my gaze on the environment instead, gawking at James would only make me feel more ridiculous.

The place was calm almost like a garden, but it was a small, cozy spot with a pool by the side. Lounge chairs were arranged neatly beside the pool, and a table and chair were secluded in a corner not far from the pool across the tiled floor. Warm lights glowed softly between neatly trimmed rose bushes, giving the place a peaceful, almost magical vibe.

"What's this place?" I asked as James pulled out a chair for me to sit.

"It's a little spot I come to when I want to clear my head," he rep

    •Edward POV•“Thank goodness, that evil man will finally get what he deserves,” Mrs. Carl muttered, her eyes still fixed on the TV screen.The news ended, and Eric reached for the remote, switching off the TV before grabbing his tablet. His eyes scanned quickly as his fingers moved across the screen. “I didn’t expect this to work so fast,” he said, almost in disbelief. “Comments online are going crazy.”“That’s goodnews, Eric,” I murmured, leaning back into the couch. “We just have to wait for him to get arrested.” I drew in a slow breath, letting the relief wash over me.Eric lowered himself onto the couch beside me, still locked into whatever he was reading. Mrs. Carl stood, dusting her palms against her apron. “Let me go and prepare breakfast,” she said with a small smile before turning toward the kitchen.The house settled into a quiet hum, the faint clink of pots in the kitchen, the soft sound of Eric’s scrolling, and my thoughts still circling around the news we’d just watched.

    •Edward POV•I stayed with Juliet for some time before finally leaving her ward. Eric hadn’t returned, so I assumed he was with Vera. I ran a hand through my hair, letting out a long breath as I made my way to Vera's ward. Today had been a productive day, but sitting in silence beside Juliet made me realize something, none of it really mattered. The only thing that would truly make me happy was her waking up from this coma.“My love, take one more. The doctor said you need to eat well,” Eric’s voice floated toward me as I walked into Vera’s ward. He was sitting opposite her, holding a spoon close to her lips.Vera’s eyes softened at him, a small smile curling on her lips before she leaned forward and took the bite.I couldn’t help smiling as I leaned against the door frame. Eric noticed me and quickly set the plate on the table beside him, standing up almost too fast. “Mr. Miles, I didn’t know you were here.”“I just came in,” I said softly, stepping inside and settling on the small c

    •Edward POV•Eric pulled into the driveway of the hospital and let out a calm breath. It was almost as if he could read my mind, because not long after, I let mine out too. I pushed the car door open and stepped out. We walked toward the entrance of the hospital and stopped at the receptionist’s desk.A lady with red hair packed neatly into a bun was there now, instead of the blonde one who used to be there. “Good afternoon, I’m Mr. Miles, and I’m here to see my wife, Juliet,” I said calmly.She looked at me for a moment, then glanced at Eric standing beside me before turning to her monitor. “Let me check if visitors are allowed at this time.” She typed for a few seconds, then looked up. “You can go.”I gave her a brief smile and walked away toward the elevator. Silence settled between Eric and me as we stood inside. He seemed lost in thought, his eyes unfocused, and I wondered what was running through his mind.The elevator chimed, and we stepped out. I headed straight for Juliet’s w

    •Edward POV•Shannon’s voice came steady at first, exactly as Eric had written in the script.“Hey there, I know you all must be wondering why I decided to switch from content making to this. But I want you all to know that if something is worth talking about, it should be,” she said in a soft voice. “Everyone watched Juliet Ryder’s livestream before her incident, and many people thought she was lying to cover up everything. But I’m here to shed light on that.”I placed my hand on my chin as I watched Shannon speak. My heart filled with so much joy, and I could already imagine how this would end, with James being taken to prison.Shannon took a deep breath, her gaze fixed on the camera. “Everything Juliet Ryder said in her livestream… were the truth, and I believe her. Because I know what it’s like to start something small until it turns into something big. And I know how hurtful it can be when someone tries to ruin what kept me up at night.”“I know you all are angry that the fake pe

    •Edward POV•The bright light coming through the window pressed against my closed eyelids. I groaned softly, lifting my palm to shield my face from the sun. Rolling over to the other side of the bed, my eyes widened when I saw Jace lying there beside me, sleeping peacefully.A smile tugged at my lips. He must’ve left his room in the middle of the night and crawled into mine. I reached out, brushing my hand gently against his chubby cheek. He stirred a little, but didn’t wake."Are you awake, buddy?" I asked quietly.When he didn’t answer, I sat up and reached for my phone on the nightstand. The screen lit up, nine o’clock. I ruffled my hair and headed to the bathroom to splash some water on my face. The water was cool against my skin and I looked at my reflection in the mirror, it's been long I've stared at myself. My face was paled and I looked tired even though I had just woken up, I shoved my hand through my hair brushing it backward. As I walked back into the room, I heard Jace s

    •Edward POV•"I can't believe he had the guts to show up after everything he’s done," Eric muttered as he drove down the road, gripping the steering wheel a little tighter. "He seriously has no fear."I groaned softly, my hand still balled into a fist. Resisting the urge to punch James in the face had taken almost all of my willpower. The thought of him standing there, talking like that, made my blood boil. I just can’t wait for the day he’s behind bars.I turned my head to look at Jace, who was sleeping peacefully, his little head resting to the side, his seat belt holding him securely in place. His chest rose and fell in that slow, calm way children breathe when they’re deep in dreams.But James’s words kept replaying in my head, bringing a cold, sharp fear with them. What if he tried to harm Jace? What if he actually did something terrible? I couldn’t let that happen. I reached over, brushing my hand softly through Jace’s curls. He didn’t stir, just sighed quietly in his sleep, bli
