ログイン"Wh.. who?" Before Jane could even repeat her words a dark silhouette started taking slow steps towards her, like a predator to its prey. The light from the night lamp fell on his sharp features making them clearer gradually. " Ad...Adrian...you!" Gulping hard she started taking steps backward unknowingly. " Why don't you love me, Jane?" His slurry voice gave a clear indication of his drunken state. " Adrian please, we can talk things out. Please listen to me...pl... please." Jane was terrified to her core when she realised he wasn't in his senses. Looking directly into her eyes Adrian smirked. Not his normal one. His face was showing disappointment, anger, rage, and one more thing. Amorous lust. His desire to claim her was so strong that anyone could see it through his eyes. .........

もっと見るCamilla flinched slightly and shifted her eyes to somewhere in the distance. “Yeah… he told me,” she muttered, tucking her hair behind her ear like it could hide the guilt on her face.Jane let out a sigh and held her hands, “Cam,” she said in a light tone, “how many times do I have to say it? You don’t need to feel guilty for dating Samuel.”But Camilla still couldn't look at her. She just kept walking in slow steps.Eight years. It had been that long, and still… still, she couldn’t fully meet Jane’s eyes whenever Samuel’s name came up. Everyone talked about how the families coped in their own ways after the incident. But no one ever talked about the guilt and helplessness that bled into the lives of two best friends – the best friend of the victim, who couldn’t protect her, and the best friend of the abuser, who couldn’t stop him.Samuel had been the first to reach out to her and Camilla was stunned by his audacity.Adrian’s best friend. The same Adrian who had abused Jane. That ta
As she stepped out, a wave of relief washed over her. At least Aaliya would be there too.“Did you talk to Dr. NV?” Jane turned back, startled to find Aaliya standing right behind her, already reading her expression.Jane nodded. “Yeah.”Aaliya gave her a knowing look, a half-smile tugging at her lips. “Well, it’s not all bad. Kind of feels like med school again. Fieldwork, patients asking weird questions…” She paused, noticing Jane was absent minded. She stepped closer and gave Jane an assuring smile. “Jane, no matter what, I’m with you. Always.”Listening to her, Jane let out a genuine smile..................................NEXT DAY“Are you sure this one?” Jane asked one of the team members, her eyes fixed on the big iron gate that read “Happy Home.”“Yes, ma’am. This one,” the man confirmed.Jane paused for a moment. She had been here three years ago with Camilla. She knew this shelter belonged to Samuel. And that meant… Her fingers tightened slightly around the bag she was hol
“What?” Jane asked over the phone, clearly shocked from what she heard. “Are you sure?” she asked again, frowning deeper as she listened to the voice on the other end.Her feet slowed in the middle of the cafe, not really bothering about the eyes on her. Whatever she just heard was clearly unsettling.A moment later, her eyes landed on Ryan, who was now frowning slightly, watching her from the corner table.“Okay. I’ll contact you later. Just… don’t call me again unless I say so,” Jane said softly, trying to keep her tone neutral. She ended the call and tucked her phone into her bag, taking a deep breath before forcing a smile onto her face and walking toward him.“Hey! I know I’m really late. I hope you don’t mind. It’s been such a hectic day,” she said, her voice returning to its usual cheerful tone.“It’s fine. Take your seat,” Ryan replied with a smile, gesturing to the chair across from him.“Where’s your girl?” Jane asked with a teasing grin, raising an eyebrow at him.Ryan loo
As Jane walked, she glanced at the ring on her finger. Adrian had been so lost in thought, he probably didn’t even notice she wasn’t wearing it on her ring finger.Samuel had told him about her engagement with Ryan… but maybe even he didn’t know it had been called off.When Adrian congratulated her, Jane hadn’t corrected him. The pain in his face gave her a strange satisfaction. Call her twisted, but seeing him broken like that gave her a sick pleasure she couldn’t deny.She knew it wasn’t right. As a doctor, she shouldn’t have spoken to him that way…especially not after his brain surgery, just a month ago.But Adrian wasn’t just her patient. He was her tormentor. Her abuser.In her twenty-nine years of life, Jane had seen enough. She knew Adrian truly felt guilty and ashamed. And that confession, that vulnerability, gave her a peace that no punishment ever could.How could she forget those nights she felt broken, vulnerable and helpless?Even after building a career on her own, her c
