Love in Shadows Chapter 10
"The backers are bailing, scared off by the risk, pulling their money out left and right."And with the stock tanking, you're about to hit rock bottom..."Then, Shane just crumpled, unable to believe what he was hearing."No way, I can't be going under..."The cops were running out of patience, ready to haul Shane off in cuffs.A squad of towering armed officers moved in to take him.Shane, desperate, turned to me."Lily, I've messed up big time. Please help me out? Jail's not for me!"I approached him, silent.I simply pulled a lab report from my pocket and handed it to him.Shane opened it reluctantly.In a blink, his eyes welled up.It was the lab report from three years back, when I first found out I was pregnant.My eyes brimmed with tears."Shane, if I let you off the hook, what about our kid?"How can you face him?"When he heard that, Shane broke down.He clutched my hands with tears streaming down his face."Lily, I'm so sorry, so very sorry..."I've let you
Love in Shadows Chapter 9
"Lily, you're clever, setting this whole thing up."However, you're still too naive. Despite all these witnesses, it won't make a difference."We're all part of the same world here, with shared interests. No one's going to report me and risk their own skin."This time, the crowd fell silent, as if in agreement with Shane's words.Shane softly touched my hair, a gesture meant to be comforting."Let's calm down, okay? The engagement party will go on as planned.""You've got it wrong.""What?"I smiled, repeating myself as I said, "You've got it wrong."I then pulled the hidden camera from my collar."Shane, now everyone around the globe knows what you've done."……That was when Shane lost his composure.Just then, the assistant who had been locked out came charging in."Mr. Jackson, everything was streamed live, and now our stock is tanking!"The two secretaries who came in after him added to the chaos."Mr. Jackson, this morning's partners are backing out! The staff memb

Upon hearing that, the man broke down in tears. "We were together for five years! I would've given you my heart, but you fell for someone else."Alright, if you're in love with him, why didn't you break up with me? Why string me along?"Joanna, on the verge of a breakdown, faced Shane's contorted expression and screamed at the man, "You're insane! If you don't want me to end your child's life, then shut your mouth!"……The moment the words tumbled from her lips, Joanna's heart sank, and tears streamed down her face. Her voice quivered with desperation as she said, "Mr. Jackson, I love you. I really do. If I didn't, why would I ever risk everything to do that to Lily?"Please, you have to believe me. This baby is yours. Let me have this child, will you?"Shane's gaze was icy as he looked at her, his hand falling away as he turned to his assistant with a chilling command."Take her for the procedure."And skip the anesthesia. She needs to be awake for this."Joanna's eyes were w

I set the remote aside and lifted the mic once more."Three years ago, that fall put me in a coma, and I despised Joanna to the core."However, my so-called loving fiancé didn't put her behind bars. Instead, he used 'punishment' as an excuse to satisfy his lust for her, all while playing the faithful partner by my hospital bed."When I came to, he had the nerve to say Joanna was just my caretaker. And he had the audacity to let her carry his child, with plans to dump the baby on me."As my words hung in the air, the crowd had reached a boiling point. Someone yanked Joanna onto the stage and, in a fury, flung their shoes at her and Shane."I've hated home-wreckers all my life! And you have the nerve to challenge his wife? I'll knock some sense into you!""And this lowlife can't get off easy either! He's the lowest of the low, pretending to spoil his wife just to line his pockets, and then he cheats with the very person who hurt her!"Amidst the uproar, security guards charged in

"Shane, that was a heart-wrenching tale."Too bad it's just that: a tale."……I turned to the gathered crowd, my voice rising as I said, "Remember the one who pushed me down the stairs three years ago?"A voice called out. "Sure do! Wasn't it one of Mr. Jackson's secretaries? Hard to keep track of his many secretaries, but didn't they end up in jail? Mr. Jackson himself saw to it, right?"I offered a wry smile and replied, "She never saw the inside of a cell."At that, Shane could no longer keep his composure.He had that look, the one that told me he knew I had uncovered the truth about what happened three years ago.His face was a picture of panic, and I could not help but revel in it.I hit the button on the remote before he could even think to tell someone to kill the power.The footage was rough, shot from someone's point of view. Though the picture was fuzzy, the voices of two women came through loud and clear.The door swung open, and the voice that I despised with ev
Love in Shadows Chapter 5
The room buzzed with the scandalous sounds from the screen, and it did not take long for the penny to drop."Holy smokes! Isn't that Mr. Jackson with some other woman? Looks like Ms. Smith's the one who put it up there!""Turns out Ms. Smith disappeared for a reason. She was preparing to take down a cheater!"Shane's face was a picture of misery; his hand clutching the mic shook.I paid him no mind. I strode up to the stage and delivered the knockout blow without batting an eye."As you can clearly see, the Mr. Jackson who's supposed to cherish his wife above all else has been up to no good behind her back."My words hit like a tidal wave, and the room erupted with voices of outrage."I've always been his champion. I even snagged him contracts when I felt sorry for him!""Yeah, and to think it happened right by Ms. Smith's hospital bed. That's just vile!"My mom stormed onto the stage too, slapping Shane hard, her eyes blazing with fury."Haven't I told you before? You could'
