"You won't be happy. Keep this in your mind. I won't return to you even if you kneel at my feet." Camari's life was perfect. That was what she thought before her husband presented her divorce papers. She initially refused and insisted on keeping the marriage. However, her husband showed his true colors and did everything he could to force her to sign. The misfortunes in her life did not stop post-divorce. An offer came in at a time of need, so Camari teamed up with a stranger to strike back. Unfortunately, many secrets about her and her partner tested their trust in each other.

[Camari]Marrying Otis was my best impulsive decision. He treated me like a queen with his sweet gesture and gave me everything I needed. I noticed my surroundings. The nursery he set up was cozy. Our son would feel right at home here.I rubbed my big belly. The child came at an unexpected time. I knew Otis was healthy, but I didn't expect my program to succeed this quickly. However, I'm happy with his arrival. I'd been looking forward to becoming a mother for a long time.Even though I had to feel the pain of morning sickness until the beginning of the second trimester, my whole body was sore and achy, and mood swings, I loved my son. I couldn't wait to meet and hug him."I knew you'd be here," Otis uttered.I lifted my head and saw him standing in the doorway. "Have you finished work?" I stood up and walked over to him."Sorry, I promised I wouldn't bring work home," he regretted."I understand. It's Haworth Inc.'s birthday soon. I'm glad everyone is enthusiastic about sharing their
The apartment lights didn't turn on automatically as they usually do when someone enters the room. But in the darkness, candles lit up the room. The candles lining the floor leading to the bedroom caught my attention.I turned to Otis. He smiled. I followed the candles' guidance to the room with the door open. The candles stopped not far from the bed. I saw a bouquet of red roses and some jewelry boxes on it."Otis, what is all this about?" I asked in confusion."I can't repay what you did yesterday with any money. So, I thought of a suitable gift for you. I know you got a lot of jewelry from Farrell, but you sold it when you divorced," he explained."I don't know what you like. But the shop assistant said this jewelry is favored by high society women. You'll be proud to wear it." He smiled.I smiled back. "You don't need to do this. I have plenty of jewelry from Father and enough to attend different events. Besides, I'm your wife. I'm obligated to help you in times of trouble."I took
[Camari]Today was full of surprises! I'd never felt so happy and so scared at the same time. After successfully clearing Otis' name, I had to deal with the crazy woman who had her bodyguards’ pointing guns at us.Didn't she listen to Otis' report at the shareholders' meeting? The company was almost bankrupt. What did she want with the Haworth heirloom? As owners, the Haworth would have to pay for many losses with their assets. Homes, vehicles, and jewelry might have to be sold to cover the losses.Then what did she want to do with maintaining her son's position in Father's company? I couldn't understand. Haworth lost everything because of her foolish son!I thought I was going to die, so I apologized to everyone in my head. Fortunately, help came unexpectedly. I didn't care when Father met and talked with Dante. All I could think about was that our lives were intact."Thank goodness, we're all safe," I muttered in the elevator."Why do we have to go back to the office, ma'am? Mr. Hawo
My duty was done, so I left the room. Camari and Nicole were not in the corridor. Only Jasper stood waiting for me. What a strange woman. Her boss was here. Why was she rushing back to work? I wouldn't fire her for taking care of my father.Father's bodyguard came. I waited until he was near me. I asked for an explanation for his negligence at work. It turned out that Farrell had told him not to look after Father—like mother like son. They wanted to ruin my life.Fortunately, Father named the culprit. I waited for the police to make an official statement about Steven before suing them for their unfair treatment toward me. Isaac would love to keep busy with the two additional cases.He was still handling Bruce and my office security for intrusion and theft. He certainly wouldn't mind taking care of Steven's attempted murder and Eleanor's murder cases. I let out a long sigh. The media would frequently mention my family's name."Otis," someone called out. I looked behind me. "D-do you hav
[Otis]I was uneasy about being away from Camari. But I had to do it. Eleanor and Dorothy tried hard to keep us apart, so we went along with it. We didn't know how Father was doing. So, we had to be careful and not provoke them.Camari's fake bodyguards were an advantage. They must have reported everything to Farrell. The man stalking my wife must have reported everything to Eleanor and Dorothy. They might have thought their plan had succeeded.My guess was confirmed when I saw the number of people standing guard in front of Father's hospital room. There were two large men standing there, but only one today. Jasper and I were thinking of ways to infiltrate when the man left his post.Seeing that, we quickly moved. I didn't expect Camari and Nicole to do the same. I thought she was having lunch with Jasmine. It turned out Camari was in this place, too. The amazing thing was that she recorded all of Father's statements.How could I not fall deeper in love with her? She thought of and fou
"Fa-farrell... What are you doing here?" Eleanor nervously muttered."Is what Camari said true, Mom?" Farrell asked in disbelief. "You killed Dad? And what does that mean about his illegitimate son?""Camari is a liar. Don't believe anything she says." Eleanor approached Farrell and looked at him gently."That's not the answer to my question, Mom." Farrell took a step back.I turned to Nicole. She looked at me for a moment before looking at the mother and son. I didn't know what to do, so I waited until they finished talking. After all, it would be a strange atmosphere if I entered my unit while they were here."I didn't kill your father. I loved him very much. How could I hurt him?" Eleanor explained. "And there's no illegitimate son. You're Arnold Haworth's only child.""You lied," Farrell accused. "You avoid my eyes when you speak. You'll look at me without hesitation when you tell the truth.""Farrell, I'm your mother. I won't lie to you," Eleanor cooed.The man avoided when his mo
Jennifer explained in simple sentences so that I could understand her. She mentioned my condition and the treatment she suggested. I might take some time to think about what she said first if I wasn't ready to decide.I didn't think twice and accepted all her suggestions. Otis had said he would support all my decisions for my recovery, so I took my psychologist's advice. I chose her for help. So, I learned to trust her observations."We can do this in two ways. We set a counseling time once a week or you can come whenever you can," Jennifer suggested."I prefer to set a schedule. So, I can fill the other days with work. Do you have an appointment every Monday night?" I asked."I can make time between six and seven in the evening. How about that?" she offered."Perfect!" I said happily. "I'll come straight here after work."After discussing other details, Jennifer ended our meeting. She made a few suggestions to help my recovery. Thankfully, I did most of them. I was around positive inf
“Miss Camari Gastrell,” called the nurse on duty. I stood up to answer her call. “Miss Cavanaugh is waiting for you in her office.”“Thank you,” I replied.I followed her into the office and smiled at the cozy room. I felt like I was in a living room with an ivory sofa and an oak table. The sideboard and bookcase were also made of oak.I overheard Otis and Jasper's conversation in his office that day. They reminded me of Deborah's advice. Therefore, I researched psychologists that people liked and were affordable. I was happy to find a psychologist who accepted patients with health insurance.The psychologist stood up and extended her hand to me. “Hi, Miss Gastrell.”“Camari,” I corrected as I shook her hand.“Call me Jen, then.” She smiled warmly and invited me to sit down. “Thank you for trusting me. Well, how can I help you?”"Well ...." My tongue suddenly felt numb. My head was blank, and I forgot what to say."Can I be straightforward?" Jennifer kindly offered. She glanced at the
