LOGINDaniel Hampton and I were married for ten years. For half of that time, we lived apart. When my mother fell ill, I took our son back home to care for her, while Daniel remained in Miston for work. He would fly back every week, and eventually, he collected hundreds of round trip tickets, and every single ticket had a romantic message on it. So before the holidays, I bought two tickets and decided to surprise him. Our son came with me. Then, I saw him engaged in a waltz with another woman under a street lamp. The woman tripped on his foot. They fell into the snow. And instead of pulling away, they kissed. I was going to cover my son's eyes, but he broke free, opened the car door, and charged right at them. "Daddy! Mommy Jessica! I want to have a snowball fight too!" Daniel caught our son in his arms. Then, he looked up. The moment his eyes met mine, all the colour drained from his face.
View MoreThree years had gone by, and one day, I met Daniel and Edward again. It was on a resort island overseas. They were shocked. I could only think that God had a cruel sense of humor. This was the kind of coincidence I did not want."Mom? Mom!" Edward bolted toward me, and he hugged my leg as he cried his heart out. "You're alive! Why didn't you come home?"Daniel froze. He did not even move a muscle. A moment later, he finally found the strength to breathe. "Yvonne…"I pulled Edward's arm away. "You got the wrong person. I don't know who you are."Harold Yliaster, my cousin, came out of the shop with my daughter. "Here, Mommy. You can have the first sip of the coconut."Daniel stared at Harold and the girl, shocked. "That's our daughter, isn't she?"He pushed him away. "Who are you? Don't harass my family, you pervert!"Edward screamed, "She's my mother! Mom, I'm sorry! Don't leave me!"I looked at them coldly. "I have no idea who you are."Daniel suddenly charged forward and gra
I was in the yard, sunbathing, and I fell asleep halfway through. My uncle covered me with a blanket and picked my phone up from the ground.I smiled."Were you pretending to be asleep, or were you already awake?" He smiled.I opened my eyes and stretched my arms. "You woke me up."My uncle sat down and talked to me. He asked if the baby was kicking around. I caressed my baby bump. It was seven months along now, and I smiled. "She's been an angel."Edward would not stop kicking me during the pregnancy. Daniel would scold him and tell him to let me have a good night's sleep. It felt like an eternity ago. My identification now bore the name Jane Yliaster, and officially, I was registered as my uncle's daughter.The day my mother died, an old man called out to me after I came out of the hospital. "Melissa? Why didn't you write back to me?"The old man got the wrong person. Dementia, probably. I was slow in my reaction, so I tried to look for his family. His son came running to hi
Daniel's eyes were bloodshot, and the dark look in his eyes scared Edward. Jessica came out of the bathroom and froze when she saw Daniel's expression. "What's wrong, Daniel? What happened?"Daniel's gaze moved slowly between her and Edward. When he spoke, it was quiet, but his voice was scarily cold. "Who sent the video and photos? Was it something you two cooked up? Did you send her those to force her into a divorce? Edward, you told me your mother had a surprise for me. Did you know what it was?"Edward shook his head in panic. Jessica pulled the boy behind her. Her eyes were filled with hurt and resolve. "That was my idea. I lied to Edward and sent those with his account. Yes, I'm greedy. I didn't mean anything I said to you. I want the title of your wife. I don't want my child to be illegitimate forever."Daniel let out a cold laugh. It stopped almost as soon as it began. "Abort it, then. It won't be illegitimate if it doesn't exist. Date a man who only loves you. You won't h
His mind buzzed. The sounds of crashing waves echoed in his ears. He saw an unsent message on my phone. "Would my life be enough to repay the money you spent on me and my mother?"'What? That's impossible!' Daniel thought. 'She can't have killed herself. Even if she hates me, she still has Edward. She can't just die.'"Your mother…"He was reminded of Selina's message. He did not hear it clearly, but something told him something happened to Veronica, so he called the hospital.The doctor was bemused. "Your mother-in-law died a week ago. Didn't your wife tell you?"His mind buzzed again. He remembered the sorrowful look in my eyes and thought it was just the impact from me seeing him making out with Jessica. And he threatened me again and again with the hospital bill.Daniel slapped himself. …When he sought out Selina, she slapped him again. "You bastard!"He could not feel the pain. "She must've told you something! She's not dead, is she? She's hiding somewhere so I can't fi
