Vivian’s lips trembled as she clutched Brielle’s hands tighter. Her composure finally broke, tears spilling down her elegant face. She looked nothing like the composed woman she always was; she looked like a mother begging for mercy on behalf of her son.

“Brielle,” her voice cracked, “I know… I know Ethan has wronged you. I know what he did last night has shattered something in you, but please… listen to me. You don’t know who Scarlett really is.”

Brielle turned her face away, staring blankly at the curtains. Her heart still bled from the wound Ethan had torn into it. “I don’t care, Vivian,” she whispered. “Whatever she is or was, it doesn’t matter. What matters is that he kissed her. He let her touch him. And he didn’t push her away.”

Vivian shook her head fiercely, gripping her hand even tighter. “No, no, Brielle. It matters. You must know the truth, because Scarlett is poison. She has always been poison.”

Brielle’s chest rose and fell sharply, but she said nothing. Her silence gave

    EPILOGUE Two Years Later. Ethan exhaled for the umpteenth time that day. No matter how much he did, it didn’t seem to calm his nerves. He looked to the side and saw Vivian holding little Ryan, his and Brielle’s son, dressed in a matching white suit and black bow tie. “Dadda!” He yelled from where he sat and everyone in the church laughed. The orchestra played and the large church doors soon opened to reveal the star of the day. Brielle stood, draped in a mouth-watering princess wedding dress and a veil that covered her face. Even though he had not seen her face, he knew she looked breathtaking. She walked slowly, Raymond beside her, taking the place of her father whom she wanted nothing to do with. Ethan’s eyes blurred with tears as he watched her march towards him, her wide smile visible through the veil. She finally got to the altar, Ella helping her arrange her veil from behind as she settled and stood facing him, giving him a good view of her face. She was gorgeous. “You

    The walls closed in on him, suddenly feeling small. Claustrophobic. His lips parted but no words came out. His breathing was ragged and his fingers trembled. “L-leaving? What do you mean she’s leaving?” He finally found his voice but his eyes remained bloodshot. Full of pain. “She came to the office today to resign, then announced her departure. Her flight leaves today so, I think she’s either at the airport or on the air.” Bella answered. “If you truly love her and want to make things right, you know what to do.” She said, her voice low. Then, she turned and walked away, leaving Ethan to himself. As soon as she left, something in him snapped and he checked his wristwatch, every tick causing his heart to break. He didn’t have time. He quickly pulled out his phone from his pocket and dialed Frederick’s number. “Mr Ray—” “Find out what airport Brielle is at and what country she’s going to. Immediately!” His tone was urgent and demanding, letting Frederick know that a lot

    Brielle walked off as soon as she was done with her statement, leaving Scarlett to herself, seething in anger. She couldn’t believe that she had just walked out on her when she wasn’t done speaking. She had come all the way down to the hospital to see her and possibly taunt her more. How dare she make her waste her time? She furrowed her brows in annoyance and was about to open her mouth to speak when her phone buzzed. She pulled it out of her bag to see what it was and as soon as she did, her face lit up, her lips lifting as a smirk formed on her face. It was a message from Ethan asking if they could meet up that afternoon. Without wasting any time as she knew how easily and quickly Ethan changed his mind, she quickly typed her response, agreeing to his date. A date… That’s what it had to be. “Men really never get over their first love.” She tsked, shaking. Her head as she watched Brielle get into a cab. “That’s right, honey. Run as far as you can. This is a lost battle anyway. Et

    “I’d like to resign, Dr.”The words left Brielle’d chest with a heavy thud. Before then, it had just been a thought in her mind but, as she stood before her senior doctors, she realized that that thought was about to become her reality.“Brielle…” Dr Lorey whispered, her expression sad but understanding.Dr Graham on the other hand, looked like he had been preparing himself for this moment. Over the past few weeks, he had noticed how sad and disturbed she had been even though she always tried to put on a smile at work. He knew she needed a break even before she realized it herself.“How long will you be gone for?” He asked after a while, a calm smile resting on his features.“I don’t know yet,” Brielle replied. “I might be gone for a while.”Dr Graham nodded and stood up, walking towards her. “We were lucky to have someone like you in Crystal Hospital. Sadly, your stay was short. One thing I can tell you is that you will be missed, Brielle Evans.” He admitted and gave her a fatherly h

    The noise in the restaurant blurred out, making Brielle’s voice the only thing he could hear. His chest tightened as the pain of rejection pierced him. He lowered his head in defeat and took a deep breath.“I’m really sorry, James. A relationship is the last thing on my mind right now. I’ve been wanting to tell you for a while now but, I didn’t want to spoil the friendship we have.” Brielle apologized again, her expression turning sad.Professor James shook his head and finally looked up, his lips curled into a sad smile. “It’s fine, Brielle. Don’t feel bad.” He said, making his peace with her stance.A part of him knew something like this would happen but, he was clinging on to whatever final hope there was. As long as she didn’t say the words herself, he was going to keep dreaming.Now, that hope was completely shattered. It was finally time to stop dreaming.“I-I don’t hate you for that. I’ve always held a special place for you in my heart and I’ll continue to do that, even though

    Later that night, Brielle kept to her promise. She stepped out of her apartment in a blue knee-length dress with her hair perfectly styled. She wore minimal makeup, good enough to hide the dullness in her eyes. When she got out of the building, ready to get into a taxi, a car honked loudly, calling her attention.She turned to see Professor James getting out of the car and walking towards her with a wide smile and a bouquet in his hands. He was dressed in a white corporate shirt and black trousers to match. She also noticed that he had gotten a fresh haircut.She sighed inwardly, her guilt resurfacing. She could only imagine how much she had been waiting for this dinner, seeing how enthusiastic he was about it.“Flowers for a beautiful woman.” He said, handing her the bouquet.Brielle blushed at his compliment, extending her hands to take the bouquet. “Thank you.” She said.He nodded, rubbing his hands together even though it did nothing to calm his nerves. He had been preparing for t
