When I reached for it, my hands were still trembling. I noticed Yuan’s intense gaze on me, but I ignored it. Quietly, I opened the folder and fixed my eyes on the words inside.

I didn’t read the statement all at once. My gaze immediately stopped at a new name.

Timothy Blake

The moment I saw it, I went back to the beginning of Benjamin’s statement. I read it over and over, unable to fully process what was written. I couldn’t tell if it was the truth or just another lie from their family.

“Is this even real? Are they joking?” I whispered shakily, almost tearing the papers apart.

“Frame-up? Did he order it? How… why would they agree? Are they idiots for going along with this?” My questions tumbled out, hysterical, impossible to stop.

Before I could stand, Yuan was at my side. He held my hand tightly, matching my ragged breaths as anger, fear, and pain collided inside me.

“Tell me, Tim… is this true? Their father, Timothy Blake… he’s the one who killed my dad?” I almost shouted, my voice

    I laughed. I wiped my tears away quickly, cursing under my breath.“T‑take me back?” I scoffed. “So that’s why you’re telling me all this now? Because you want to take me back?”I laughed again, bitter and hollow. “Do you know what I found out recently? The sudden changes in the witness’s statement. And the call, the one where someone threatened the life of my entire family. What else don’t I know about your family, huh?”My voice cracked as I continued, my chest burning. “I don’t know who to trust anymore! You’re fucking ruining my mind, and that is not okay, do you hear me?”I hissed the words as I stood up.Terror flashed across his face.“What?” he asked, startled, standing as well. “Who sent you the death threats?”I dragged my fingers through my hair violently and rubbed my face.“I don’t know!” I shouted. “I’m fucking scared! I can still hear his laugh inside my head, the way he laughed like a devil. It’s screaming in my mind!”My body weakened, my knees almost giving in.I d

    The next morning, I woke up early and went to Slater’s room. He was still fast asleep, so I sat beside him, and for a moment, he dozed off again. When he woke up later, he was still half-asleep, so I stayed there a few minutes, staring at the ceiling.Suddenly, I remembered Yuan. The patience he shows me is unbelievable, and here I am… doing nothing but ignoring it. It was the first time we had an argument because of that man, and I didn’t know where my loyalties should lie, my pride, my feelings, or him. But deep down, my conscience was screaming that I needed to make things right, even if the words I’d heard from him earlier still haunted me.“Mommy?”Slater’s small voice pulled my attention from my thoughts. He rubbed his eyes sleepily, and I immediately hugged him tight. It felt like we hadn’t seen each other in forever.“Good morning, baby. How was your sleep?” I asked, planting gentle kisses on his cheek.“I dreamt about you… and Daddy. He said he’s coming home soon,” he said in

    “What do you think you’re doing this time? What’s your plan? Do you even have one? Why won’t you tell me? Why are you here again?”Melody’s barrage of questions makes me want to slap her, not because she’s wrong, but because my head isn’t even in the right place yet. I’d only just woken up, still trying to remember what happened before I blacked out in the middle of the rain.It was Ethan I saw before I lost consciousness.He asked me to let him take me home.Home? What a joke.Where exactly am I supposed to go? To a house I barely want to return to because every corner is soaked in memories that still hurt? Fuck home. What does that word even mean anymore? I don’t know. I honestly don’t know what a home is supposed to feel like now.“I don’t have a plan, Melody. Let’s just go. I want to go… home,” I said lazily.I’d called her the moment I woke up again in Ethan’s bedroom. I had no idea where he was. When I opened my eyes, the house was empty. Quiet. Clean.Too clean.Everything arou

    His jaw clenched as he muttered a string of curses under his breath, making my brows knit even tighter.“So you were with him earlier because you were the price for his help, is that it?” he asked coldly. “Tell me, Selina… did you tell him about Slater?”His seriousness only fueled my irritation.I bit down on my lower lip before letting out a harsh breath.“Why would I do that? And why do you think it’s easy for me to accept him?” I snapped. “He kept telling me he knew we had a child, but I didn’t fall for it, because I was thinking about you! Why are you taking this out on me?”“Because I’m fucking jealous!” he burst out. “The way he held you earlier, and the way you let him, made it look like you could still accept him! Like despite everything, you could still take him back!”He suddenly slammed the brakes, and the car lurched to a stop. I nearly smashed into the dashboard, I wasn’t wearing my seatbelt.I turned to him in disbelief. I saw the flicker of shock in his eyes, but the a

    I kept glancing around, waiting for a taxi, but swore under my breath when I saw Ethan rushing out of the restaurant, seemingly looking for someone.“Never mind, Melody. Let’s just talk later,” I said, ending the call.I was about to walk away when I heard someone call my name. Looking up, I saw him striding toward me in long, determined steps.“Where are you going? I told you to wait for me, I’m taking you,” he said, his voice firm and commanding. I frowned.“I can get back to the office on my own,” I declared, turning my back on him, only for him to grab my hand and spin me to face him.“I’m taking you. Let’s go,” he said, pulling me along.“I said I can handle it! Why are you so persistent?” I yelled, but before he could respond, Eleanor appeared, blocking our path.She looked down at my hand in Ethan’s grip, desperately trying to pull away, and raised an eyebrow.“What’s going on here? Ethan, what’s that?” she asked.I just exhaled, refusing to meet their eyes.“We’re going, Eli.
