Abraham's fingers were tightly entwined with Cassandra's warm hand. In his other arm, he carried their three-year-old son, Isaac, who rested happily against his shoulder as they walked through the crowded mall corridor. Their footsteps blended with the noise around them, yet with every step they took, they felt a rare and precious sense of peace.

Cassandra carried several oversized eco-bags filled with new clothes and toys for Isaac, simple reminders that they were finally building the family t

    “Mommy! Daddy!”Isaac’s voice cracked as he screamed and cried. Bound tightly to a wooden chair, his tiny hands trembled uncontrollably with fear. The innocent child knew nothing of the dark and cruel world that had suddenly unfolded before him, a nightmare he had never wished to wake into.A stranger emerged from the shadows, her face hidden behind a cold, merciless mask. She moved closer with slow, deliberate steps before crouching down in front of the terrified boy.“Mommy! Daddy!”Isaac’s cries came one after another, his entire body shaking.Behind the mask, a pair of sharp, restless eyes stared at him. Without a trace of pity, the stranger gripped the child’s tiny jaw and squeezed hard.Isaac screamed in pain. Tears spilled down his young cheeks.“Shut up!”The masked man barked before delivering a vicious slap across the boy’s face.Isaac froze.Every fiber of his being trembled in shock. Despite the burning sting on his cheek, he forced himself to stay quiet. Only broken, muff

    Abraham's fingers were tightly entwined with Cassandra's warm hand. In his other arm, he carried their three-year-old son, Isaac, who rested happily against his shoulder as they walked through the crowded mall corridor. Their footsteps blended with the noise around them, yet with every step they took, they felt a rare and precious sense of peace.Cassandra carried several oversized eco-bags filled with new clothes and toys for Isaac, simple reminders that they were finally building the family they had dreamed of for so long.Abraham slowed his pace and glanced at his wife, puzzled by the way she was staring at him.“Why are you looking at me?” he asked softly.A bright smile spread across Cassandra's face. Her eyes shimmered with unshed tears.“I never thought this could happen.”Abraham tightened his hold on her hand, feeling the slight tremble in her fingers.“I always hoped it would.”“It really happened,” Cassandra whispered, her gaze drifting to Isaac in his father's arms. A tear

  • EIGHT HOURS AND TEN MINUTES   CHAPTER 26- Breakfast in Bed.

    Abraham's hands trembled slightly as he carefully balanced the breakfast tray.Not because of its weight, but because of the overwhelming emotions pressing against his chest a kind of happiness he had denied himself for far too long.For the first time after years of sorrow, he felt whole again.Cassandra had given him another chance.She had welcomed him back into the home that his own mistakes had once shattered.And most of all, he had once again been blessed with the priceless gift of having a family waiting for him at the end of the day.His gaze lingered on the closed bedroom door, and a quiet sigh of gratitude escaped his lips.How many sleepless nights had he spent wondering if the morning would ever come when he would wake up beside the two people he loved most?Cassandra.And their son, Isaac.How many nights had he cried himself to sleep, consumed by regret and crushed beneath the weight of longing with no certainty of ever being forgiven?Yet here he was.This was real.Th

    “Mommy, do you love Daddy?” asked their son, Isaac Mathew, as they lay together in bed. He had just finished eating lunch and needed to take his afternoon nap. Cassandra didn't have work today, so she was resting beside her son.She stroked her son's hair and smiled. “Why did you ask, baby?”“Daddy told me you were angry with him.”Cassandra froze for a moment at her son's words. She assumed Abraham must have coached him, which was why he suddenly brought this up.“No, baby, I'm not mad at your Daddy.”Her son turned over on his side. “You're a liar, Mommy,” he said.Cassandra took a deep breath. “Don't believe your Daddy; I'm not mad at him.”“If you're not mad at him, why isn't Daddy sleeping with us?”Cassandra didn't know how to explain the truth to her son. At his young age, he wouldn't fully understand what was happening between her and Abraham.“Baby, go to sleep, because tonight Daddy will be sleeping right beside you.”Isaac suddenly turned his body back to face Cassandra. He

    “Is it true that they’re happy together?”Joanna’s voice was cold as she sat in an expensive armchair inside her mansion. But beneath her calm exterior burned a rage she had carried for far too long.The man sitting across from her nodded.“Why? Is there something wrong with that?” he asked, leaning back in his chair. “Dr. Abraham Chen deserves to be happy.”Joanna’s expression darkened instantly.“No!” she snapped. “I won’t allow him to be happy. He doesn’t deserve happiness!”Her entire body trembled. Her eyes reddened with the fury and pain that had once again engulfed her heart.“I’ll do everything… everything to ruin his life.”The man shook his head and let out a quiet laugh.“You’re insane.”He slowly swirled the wine in his glass before taking a sip.“Why not just let go? Be happy for them and forget the past.”Something inside Joanna snapped.She immediately hurled her wineglass onto the marble floor. Shards of glass scattered across the room.“No way!” she screamed.“Relax,

    Cassandra looked up, reading the name of the club where she had just stepped out over and over again. She still couldn’t believe she had managed to land a gig here. She had assumed it was just some cheap, low-end bar looking for a singer. No wonder she had been so surprised by the unusually high talent fee they paid her for tonight—it turned out to be a high-end disco bar.She walked over to the security guard and introduced herself as the bar's featured singer. The guard let her in right away and led her to the dressing room, where she would meet the band she was going to duet with and practice their setlist."Good thing you made it, Ms. Cassandra. We couldn't reach our vocalist," said the male guitarist, Ted.She offered a polite smile. "They're paying me too well to just not show up," she replied."I see... so let's go! Let's practice the songs we'll be performing later."She nodded and followed them. Their repertoire consisted entirely of new hits, and on top of that, they had to
