Jasmine's POV

I've been told many heart-shattering things over the past few days. I've been held captive and immobile by my husband. Received slave-like treatment from his mistress and her friends. But none of that hurt the way Kyle's words hurt.

Tears carved glistening trails down my face as I clutched my mouth to contain my sobs. Kyle's pull was hard and strong. It sent a painful current through my midriff but I didn't scream back then.

I was afraid that he might take my crying as fake, and hurt me. Although I know his actions were led by anger and his protectiveness towards Lila, I swear on my dead child that I didn't do anything on purpose.

I didn't add anything extra... Or to cause any kind of pain to anyone. I didn’t know Lila had a cinnamon allergy, let alone how so much of it made its way into the soup. The last time I tasted it, it was delicious and fine. Every spice was in balance.

Aah, spasms ran through my belly. I felt like a thousand knives were stabbed in my stomach.

    119Kyle's POV“Forget about the questions, sir. I'll tell you a story that has answers to all your questions. Okay? Let's take a walk as I tell you the story.” I walked beside Titus on the street as he told me Jessica's story.How she met her husband, and then how they got married four years ago and were happy for three years.“Then a few months back, things completely changed for her. Jessica's husband started ignoring her to such an extent that he wouldn't come home from office for days. He wouldn't even take her calls. She thought it's because of not being able to have a baby. They've been trying for a while and Jessica wouldn't just get pregnant. But then, the truth was something else. Jessica learned it on the day she did get pregnant— It's the day you both met each other, sir. The day of the accident.”We stoppe

But Birdie was willing to sacrifice herself to save Jessica. I owe her for this. If it wasn't for her, I wouldn't have found Jessica back. We wouldn't have met again.Keeping her favors in mind, I did what was the right thing.“Mari, prepare the guest room. Miss Birdie will move in with us for a while.” At my words, Birdie's eyes widened.“S-sir, I… I can't—”“Fiona, it's your duty to make sure she takes good care and medical help— Wait, I think you should stay here too.” She looked dumbstruck.“But Lila… She will seriously kill me.&

She calmed down and I felt relieved.I tried to speak in my softest voice but I knew I didn't manage it because my voice was gruff from anger, and also because my throat was thick from all the emotions. But I was glad she was calm.Not for a long time, though, because she was back at wriggling again.I held her right as I whispered near her ear, "Jessica, it's okay. It's okay. I'm here. It's not one of them. It's me, Kyle. You're safe."Hearing my name, her body became still."K-kyle? Y-you came?"Flashback end...I will never forget how her voice had sounde

Birdie said in a low voice from beside me..There was no doubt about how the guard Titus was talking to seemed scared."Sir, look inside the cabin at the other guard. He's making a call while he's also looking at you just like this guard!" Jennifer almost yelled on my other side.It alerted the other guy that was trying to make a call. I heard something like: She's here to save her. Sir, that girl brought people to save her.I quickly sprinted towards him and grasped him in a choke hold."Where is Jessica?" I saw his face turning pink as I squeezed his neck in the crook of my elbow."Sir, Jasm

Tell sir about the main issue." Mari said."Yeah, err, sir, Jasmine.... She's been framed by her husband...." Birdie went on and on in her meek and innocent voice.But I wasn't listening. I was chanting Jasmine's name. It brought a smile to my lips. Titus stared at me like I was losing my sanity. But I didn't care.Jessica wasn't lost. She hadn't gone far away. We could still meet.Jasmine, not Jessica, Kyle!I breathed deeply, the phone still clutched by my ear. Even though I wasn't focused, I caught on every detail Birdie gave over the phone."Give me the address, Birdie." I said, stopping her from elongating her explanation any further.I didn't need her to give me details to prove anything. My heart knew Jessica was in danger. I could feel it in my chest.... And I was going to rescue her."I-it is... It is—""For

    114Kyle's POVMy heart is thudding ruthlessly in my chest. I still can't believe it. I still can't come to accept that it's happened. That Jessica is back in my house. That we met again.Exhaling a sigh, I went over the closed door of my room. I raised a hand to open the door but Fiona caught my wrist."Don't be restless, Kyle. Let the doctor examine her." I stared at her in response.But a simple stare can't describe how grateful I'm towards her. I want to hug her and tell her how much I respect her for being the bridge between me and Jessica.As if she understood my feelings, she passed me a soft smile of acknowledgement.I couldn't smile back given my heart and mind are focused on what is happening inside.
