His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 217: At the Gate of Death
The hospital corridor was quiet in the uneasy way hospitals often are at night, too quiet, yet filled with distant sounds that never truly stopped.Sarah had been pacing the hallway outside the Intensive Care Unit for what felt like hours.Her movements had become almost mechanical.She would walk a few steps, then stop suddenly in front of one of the glass windows that looked into the ICU. Her hands trembled each time she leaned slightly forward to peer through the glass, hoping to catch a glimpse of Aisha among the machines and the doctors moving around her.But every time she looked inside, the sight only made her chest tighten even more.Aisha lay on the hospital bed, surrounded by monitors and tubes, her body almost swallowed by the crisp white sheets.Sarah would watch for a few seconds, sometimes longer, before the fear became too much for her to bear. Then she would turn away quickly and resume pacing the corridor again, as though movement alone could somehow ease the tension
His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 216: Between Life and Death
Aisha leaned weakly against the side of the car, her back pressing against the cold metal as her body struggled to remain upright. Her breathing came in uneven gasps, each one shallower than the last.The adrenaline that had carried her through the fight was fading quickly, and now the pain was spreading through her body like fire.Blood continued to seep from the wound on her shoulder, staining her clothes and dripping slowly onto the pavement below.Her vision was beginning to blur.The lights of the parking lot flickered strangely in her eyes, stretching and blending together in ways that made it difficult for her to focus. She blinked repeatedly, trying to steady her sight, but the weakness creeping through her body made everything feel distant.Sarah knelt beside her, her hands trembling as she pressed tightly against Aisha’s wounded shoulder in a desperate attempt to slow the bleeding.“Stay with me,” Sarah murmured urgently, her voice shaking despite her effort to remain compos
His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 215: Instincts of Survival
The two men rushed forward together, their movements reckless and desperate, as though they had already accepted that the situation had slipped beyond their control.Their earlier confidence had vanished, replaced by the frantic determination of men who knew failure would cost them dearly.But before either of them could reach Aisha or Sarah, a gunshot echoed sharply through the parking lot.Aisha had already moved.Her grip on the weapon she had seized earlier was steady despite the tension running through her body. The shot rang out with terrifying precision, the sound bouncing against the concrete structures around them.The bullet struck one of the men directly in the knee.He didn’t even have time to scream before the impact sent him crashing violently to the ground. His body twisted awkwardly as he landed, his hands instantly clutching his shattered knee while a guttural groan escaped his throat.The pain was immediate and overwhelming.He rolled on the pavement, writhing helple
His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 214: A Sense of Danger
Sarah remained standing in the middle of her bedroom long after the call had ended, the phone still pressed lightly against her chest. The room was quiet, yet her heart was racing in a way that confused her.She stared blankly at the wall opposite her, trying to steady her breathing.Magnus’ voice still lingered faintly in her mind.She had expected it, yes. But the moment still caught her off guard. It had been years since anyone spoke to her like that: without calculation, without an agenda attached to business or power.Her fingers tightened slightly around the phone.Why am I reacting like this?The question echoed inside her head.Her heart continued beating fast, and the awareness of it made her cheeks warm suddenly.Then she realized it.She was blushing.The realization made her blink, almost in disbelief at herself.A short breath escaped her lips, and she shook her head quickly, as if physically trying to clear away the thoughts creeping into her mind.“Get your ass together
His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 213: Unexpected Returns
The late afternoon sun cast long shadows across the quiet driveway of Sarah’s mansion. The house itself had returned to its usual stillness after days of subtle adjustments.Inside, Sarah had just settled into the living room, reviewing a few documents on the tablet resting on her lap. Though her posture appeared calm, her mind was still balancing several concerns at once surrounding Melissa’s disappearance, the ongoing police investigation, and the slow but delicate process of helping Aisha rebuild her life.She had just placed the tablet aside when the faint sound of a car pulling into the driveway caught her attention.At first, she assumed it was one of the staff returning from errands, but something about the sound made her pause. It wasn’t the usual vehicle she recognized.She stood up slowly and moved toward the large front window.A black car had stopped near the entrance.Before she could fully process who it might be, the driver’s door opened and someone stepped out.Her bro
His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 212: Emotional Drift
Sarah began to notice the subtle changes in Aisha’s behaviors.Aisha no longer moved around the house like someone trying to remain invisible. The first morning she stepped into the kitchen without waiting to be called, greeting the house staff with a hesitant but respectful “good morning,”Sarah had paused at the doorway, watching silently. It wasn’t just the greeting that caught her attention, it was the effort behind it.Aisha had clearly rehearsed it in her head before saying it out loud.Over the next few days, those little changes became more frequent.She began asking questions. Not too many, and never in a way that drew attention to herself, but enough to show curiosity.She asked the cook how certain meals were prepared, watching closely as ingredients were measured and combined. She stood by the window longer than necessary, observing the movement of cars outside as though trying to understand the order behind the chaos of the city.She even asked one of the housekeepers how
His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 70: A Fresh Evidence
“Yes!”Ella’s voice shot through the quiet office floor so sharply that two interns nearly jumped. She didn’t even notice. Her eyes were glued to her tablet screen, mouth slightly open, a mix of disbelief and excitement rushing through her.She grabbed the device as if it might disappear from her h

Security at Daniel’s new school had already been instructed never to let Tiana come close, but that afternoon she still tried.She showed up without warning, hair messy, eyes wild, insisting she only wanted to “see her stepson.”The guard on duty, Mr. Collins, stepped directly in her path. “Ma’am,
