As we climbed into the car, I turned back and squeezed Jocelyn’s hand.“We’ll be home soon, my Sweedie.”She looked horrified. “Mom… I’d love to go home, but I don’t know if that’s for the best.”“What do you mean?”“Mr. O’Neil… he’s going to be looking for me.”I gave her a reassuring smile. “That’s sorted. He’s the one who helped.”She shook her head. “I’m not talking about your Mr. O’Neil, Mom. I mean his brother. The one who arranged the wedding with Dad. He won’t stop.”I drew in a slow breath. “How could your father do something like this?”She looked down at her hands. “I don’t know… I haven’t even seen him in three years.”Jason suddenly slammed on the brakes and climbed out of the car.“Motherf—” His voice carried through the silence as he kicked the wheels, the car shuddering with each удар. We couldn’t hear every word, but the fury was unmistakable.After a few minutes, he got back in—more composed, but only just—and pulled away again.Honestly, Chris had grown worse with t

Jason and I made our way to the cottage, but to our dismay it was very different from the last time we saw it. It had security everywhere. Definitely not giving guesthouse vibes anymore. My breath hitched when I saw my little girl. She was thin and gaunt, with three men around her, just sitting outside writing in a book. My whole body felt like it wanted to run to her. “Jase…” “I see,” he said briskly. He got on the phone. “Mr O’Neil, have you ever heard of Chris’s residence in Hemming Port? Well, it’s like Fort Knox. You don’t, by any chance, have a way to help us get in?” We headed to a pub at the edge of town, both of us on edge, watching everyone, wondering who might be connected to Chris. Who might recognise us. About four hours later, the two men we met earlier, dressed in black, came in to meet us. “We scouted the house and have a plan. Mr O’Neil says your deal is complete. The location is more than what we need. We will retrieve your daughter and bring her to yo

I got a call the next morning.“Is this Mrs Everwood?”Used to business calls, I fell into it without suspicion.“Yes, speaking.”“We have something in common, Mrs Everwood. Could you and your husband meet up with me and my associates? I have sent you an email with my location. I am already here. Better come sooner rather than later.”The line went dead.I stared at my phone for a second longer than I should have, unease creeping in.I went to my emails and found the message, calling Jason in the meantime.“Jase, open up your schedule. I need you.”Jason teased on the other side, “Ah, our first booty call. No need to say more.”I rolled my eyes, smiling despite myself. “I wish, my darling, but I’m afraid not. Just meet with me. I’ll explain in a voice note.”When we got to the spot, it was at a Victorian guesthouse. The kind of place that looked too quiet, too polished. Like nothing real ever happened there.We were met by two men dressed in all black.“Everwoods?”We nodded.They did

It’s been four years since the day Jocelyn left us. We never heard from them again.Jason and my marriage has barely been surviving. We had a baby girl is almost turning four in just a few weeks. We have been pouring everything into our work and the kids.I lay in bed staring at the ceiling. Out of all the things I could be worrying about. I worried the most about me and Jason.I felt him stir next to me and had to choose to look. We avoid looking at each other these days. We avoid being in the same rooms. I took a chance and turned to look at him, as my head moved his way I met his gaze.“How long have you been awake?” I asked him, feeling a bit startled“The whole night” he said coarsely.I did not know how to respond.“Rach, I almost had an affair yesterday”I turned to look at him “I’m sorry, its my fault”He drew closer almost touching me, my whole body flinched.“Rachel, I need you. Please. I don’t want to go in like this” I saw the plea in his eyes“I don’t know where to start

There stood an unfamiliar car in front of our home. In my heart I just knew it was Chris.I had been going out of my mind worrying about Jocelyn, and now I had to deal with this.We barely stopped when two doors opened. My heart pounded when I saw that Jocelyn was the one in the passenger seat.Both Jason and I moved with the speed of light. I headed to Jocelyn, Jason to the house. Timothy just stood at the end of the driveway and stared at the whole scene.I opened my arms to pull her in but she moved away instantly.“Don’t touch me,” she hissed.Chris looked as satisfied as ever.“Right, we just came to get my girl’s belongings.”My hand met his face before I could think. “Like hell you are going anywhere with my child.”“Our child,” he corrected.I looked down at her. “Jocelyn please consider what you are doing. This is dangerous. We have had no contact with your dad for years. No idea what he has been up to or why he left.”She shot me a look. “Dad has no secrets from me. We have

Jason stood there for a couple of seconds.“I’ll go find her”I still stood stillTimothy came closer “Mom”I looked down at him, “Timothy I’m sorry”He came up yo me and took my hand “Are we going to be okay?”I shook his hair feeling somehow more devastated now than I did with Chris“We have to be, I would go to the ends of the earth before I loose one of you. Even if I was the one who messed up. I will always do everything I can to be close to any of you”“How is Uncle Jase Jocelyn’s dad?”I stood blinking at him “Bud, I was young. Traveling with your dad and Jase on and off. There was a time I loved them both. Just one time when I did. It’s hard to explain how it happened. But it was just once your dad and I were barely a thing. He was seeing other people too. But by the time he and I got serious I did not even think of the possibility that someone else was Jocelyn’s dad”He looked up at me “Did you do the test because they so alike?” “You see it too, huh?”He gave out a sigh “I
