He froze in his tracks the moment the words left my lips.

My chest tightened as I waited for his reaction. I waited for him to say yes and put an end to the seven years I had spent building a sand castle.

A minute passed, then two, before he slowly turned to face me. The silence between us remained thick and suppressing, but I didn't dare back down.

I was done!

Done being used by him and my so-called family. I was done being pushed to the sideline and insulted.

Tears welled up in my eyes as I w

    My heart skipped a beat the moment the words filtered into my room.I gasped in disbelief and hesitated. My heart raced as his words echoed in my head.He wanted to apologize for everything.Does that mean he was going to send Ivy away? Does that mean he would accept me as the wife I'd been for seven years?“Violet? Open the door, please. I can't talk this way,” he muttered in a calm voice.I swallowed hard and stretched my hand towards the knob.I wrapped my hand around the cold knob, then twisted it open.My heart jumped to my throat as I pulled the door open and saw his face.My stomach churned when I saw the guilt etched across his face.“Hey,” he whispered in a voice that melted every trace of burning hatred in my heart.I pulled the door wider and gestured for him to come in. He hesitated for a second before strolling into my room.I closed the door and walked up to him, feeling my stomach twist with excitement.“I’m glad you’ve finally realized your mistake,” I muttered behind

    I staggered back, clutching Belle tightly as Jason began ascending the stairs, his eyes red with anger.Was he going to hit me now? Even though he never loved me and kept mistreating me, he had never raised his hand on me. My toes curled, and I felt my stomach twist as he got closer, his fists clenched. The anger in his eyes caused a chill down my spine, and my heart raced.Perhaps I should tell him the truth of what happened. But knowing Jason, he would definitely not believe a single word that came out of my mouth.If he finally crosses the line and hits me, I swear I'll leave without looking back. I will take anything from him but not a beating.Before I could react, he raised his hand in the air. I shuddered, my eyes slamming shut and my head turning my right cheek over.I waited for the pain, but seconds passed, and nothing happened. I slowly opened my eyes and tilted my head straight, looking up at him.My heart gave a wild skip when our eyes locked. He glared hatefully at me,

    The triumphant look on Jason's face when I took back my request made my chest burn with rage.If not for Belle, I would have stood my ground. But she mattered more than anything.I sighed and ran a comb through Belle's lustrous black hair again before stepping back.I put down the comb and turned to face her with a satisfied smile.“Everyone at school will envy you, as always,” I muttered, boosting her confidence.Her solemn face brightened, and a smile spread across her face.“Do you think so?” She jumped up, excited.I grinned and nodded.“Yes, you will captivate everyone with your beauty and your presentation,” I said, running my hand through her hair.The smile on her face faded slightly as she stared at me with a questioning gaze.“You will come, right? A lot of my classmates will bring their parents,” she whispered.My chest tightened, and the smile on my face dropped.Even though I stayed with Belle 24/7, Jason had gone around introducing Ivy to everyone as Belle's mom. I was

    “I don't know how it happened. Emilia went in to check on her as usual and found her convulsing. Should I call her father?” The butler rambled as we ran down the hallway towards Belle's room.I didn't respond to him even though his words wrecked my heart.The moment I pushed the door open, I felt my stomach drop. The maid was standing beside the bed, pulling a pillow under Belle's head.I let out a gasp and rushed towards the bed, my hands trembling in fear.I didn't scream or cry. I went beside the bed, took her trembling, pale hand, and rubbed it against mine, tears slipping out of my eyes.“Belle?” I whispered, my hand clutching hers tightly.I had been through so much pain and shock that seeing Belle suffer a seizure for the first time didn't throw me into a panic.“This has never happened before, madam,” the maid cried, her voice thick with fear.I closed my eyes, tears pouring down my face.If Belle were separated from me, then who would take care of her? Would it be Jason and I

    Violet's POVI spent the entire night calling the nurses or doctors whenever Belle needed them. She was restless all night and for a moment, I got worried. It was a huge scare after all, but as the sun finally peeked out, relief washed over me. The worst was finally over. And forget about showing up… not once had Jason or Ivy called. I picked up my phone and froze as a notification popped up. I opened it and my grip on the phone tightened. It was a photo of Ivy holding a bouquet, grinning like she’d won a pageant. There were bottles of alcohol and confetti littered across the table and floor. Jason and several other people were around her, smiling into the camera. To add insult to injury, she added a caption; ‘Thanks Jason, I’m so glad to always have you at my side’My breath hitched, my throat tightening as I realised…This entire time while I was taking care of their daughter…Jason and Ivy were busy partying at home. I set my phone down, my skin burning all over again as
