Ex-Hockey Star Regret Chapter 205 — Sweet reunion.
Nicole's POVThree months later.The funeral had been painful. You know…a closed casket in a small service. Just family and a few close friends.Mr. and Mrs. Anders had mourned the girl they raised, even knowing the truth. Even knowing she wasn't biologically theirs.Because she was still the child they'd tucked into bed. The teenager they'd taught to drive and the young woman they'd hoped would change.I mourned too. For the sister I never got to know properly, for the tragic end.For what could have been if things had been different.‘But life goes on regardless.’ That was what Mrs. Anders kept telling me."We honor her by living. By being happy and by not letting tragedy define us."And so I tried.I am fully healed now. The physical scars had faded and the emotional ones were still there but getting better.My parents made sure to give me the finest thing of this life. "You're our daughter." Mrs. Anders had said. "We take care of our daughter."I cried, still wasn't used to having

Mr. Anders sat stone-faced and staring ahead.Sophia was halfway to the side door when she suddenly stopped walking.The officers looked at each other, looking all confused."Keep moving, Ms. Anders." One of them said.But Sophia didn't move, she just stood there and then she looked up slowly as if it took all her strength.She looked at Mr. and Mrs. Anders. Her eyes found them in the gallery.Both of them were watching her. Mrs. Anders' face was wet with tears and Mr. Anders' jaw was tight.Then Sophia's eyes moved to Nicole.Nicole felt her stomach drop,
Ex-Hockey Star Regret Chapter 203 — The trial.
Author's POVWeeks later and in no time, the trial date arrived.Nicole had been discharged from the hospital; her injuries had healed, the bruises were gone and the cuts had closed.But the scars remained. Although, not just physical but emotional too.She'd moved into a new apartment. Mr. and Mrs. Anders had insisted on paying for it. They wanted her to feel more comfortable as their daughter.Brad had been with her through everything. Helping her adjust and also helping her to heal.*****Now they were standing outside the courthouse.The building was massive in stone columns and steps leading up to heavy wooden doors.Nicole's hands were shaking."You okay?" Brad asked."No. But I have to do this."Mrs. Anders was beside her. She had driven them here. As for Mr. Anders, he had gone ahead earlier."You are very brave." Mrs. Anders said. "I'm proud of you."Nicole nodded but couldn't speak.They walked inside, through security…down long hallways.The courtroom was packed and people
Ex-Hockey Star Regret Chapter 202 — She will face the law.
Mr. Pius Anders' POVI was in the hospital cafeteria when the officers found me, where Elena was with me. We'd been trying to eat and trying to pretend everything was normal.Honestly, this wasn't working."Mr. Anders?" One of the officers approached. "Ms. Sophia is requesting to speak with you."Elena's hand found mine under the table and then she squeezed it."Does she have to?" Elena asked quietly.The officer looked uncomfortable. "She has the right to request a conversation. But you can decline."I looked at my eyes, Elena and saw the pain in her eyes.We'd raised Sophia for twenty-two years. We have loved her and provided for her.And now she was a stranger in handcuffs."I will talk to her." I said.Elena started to stand. "I'll come with you.""No. Stay here. I need to do this alone."She nodded, but I could see the fear in her face.The officers led me to a small consultation room. It was an empty room except for a table and three chairs.Sophia was already there, sitting wit
Ex-Hockey Star Regret Chapter 201 — Don't let them take me to court.
Nicole's POVDays passed and my body was visibly healing. The bruises faded from purple to yellow, then the cuts were increasingly closing. The pain became manageable.But emotionally, I was a mess.I had parents now, I mean real parents. After twenty-two years of being alone, I finally had a family.Mrs. Anders visited every day. She'd bring food; homemade soup and sandwiches. Things she said were my favorites even though she didn't know what my favorites were yet.We'd sit and talk. Although it all felt awkward at first as she'd ask about my childhood, about the orphanage and even about Brad.I'd ask about her about Mr. Anders and about their life generally.You know, it was all strange…getting to know your mother at twenty-two. But at the same time, it was also sweet.She'd hold my hand sometimes, brush my hair back from my face and make other small gestures that felt huge to me.Mr. Anders was more reserved. He'd come with Mrs. Anders but hangs back while he lets her do the talkin

She was just walking with her face blank.Detective Morrison led the way while two uniformed officers flanked Sophia on either side.They took her to a private conference room on the first floor. It was a small, windowless room with a table and four chairs.One of the officers uncuffed her and sat her down."Wait here. The detective will be with you shortly."The door closed, then locked from the outside.Sophia sat alone, staring at the wall.Back upstairs, Nicole was being wheeled to her original room. She was shaking and couldn't stop.Brad walked beside her with his hand on her shoulder.Mrs. Anders followed behind. Her face was wet with tears."I should go with her." Mrs. Anders said. "To the police. Sophia needs someone…"Mr. Anders stopped her gently. "Let the police do their job.""But she's scared and she needs her mother.""She
