Dahlia’s pov

I walked into the house as my shoes tapped on the floor with each step I took. I was too tired but couldn’t do anything that would wake up my husband if he was asleep.

I then remembered all I had heard from Marsha while meeting her.

“Take this,” she told me. “Put it in his tea, and he will love you again, forget everything.”

I held the small glass bottle in my purse. It was strange, but it felt warm… almost like it was alive. At first I didn’t want to use it… but things were only getting worse at home.

I walked into the living room and there he was, sitting on the sofa with his face as hard as stone. The T.V was blaring, some sports game probably. He crossed his arms and didn’t even look at me.

“Henry…” I cleared my throat.

No response

I took a step closer. “Henry, can we talk, please?”

He held his hand up in the air. “Shhh. I don’t want to hear your voice.”

I blinked. That hurt. “I just want to explain—”

“I said quiet!” he snapped. “I don’t even want to look at you.”

    Katherine’s povMaybe he had really chosen this. Maybe he had written that letter, recorded those words. Maybe he had decided I wasn’t worth the fight.Or maybe—maybe they had twisted everything. And I’d never know.The tears came then, hot and fast.With a deep sigh, I coveeed my mouth to stop the sob from escaping my lips. This was the first time since I returned that I felt hurt this bad. From day one they had treated me like I didn’t belong and now… now they were truly showing me that I didn’t belong.But deep down, beneath all the hurt, beneath all the shame, something else was beginning. A tiny little spark of anger.They had thought they destroyed me with a pen and chequebook. But I wasn’t ready to be put out to pasture just yet.I rubbed at my face, grinding my exhaustion. My legs shook when I got up. I stood anyway. Because this was over. But there was something new out there.I would get out of the house. I’d take their money and their gifts, and I’d build something they co

    Katherine’s povThat morning after having my bath, I was summoned to Zelda’s office as I sat in my seat and stared at the paper she had given to me.Sha was seating opposite me with a devilish smile.Her lawyer sat next to her, fumbling with his glasses out of either boredom or disdain. This was business for them. To me it felt more like a funeral for something that had hardly been alive.“Just sign, Katherine,” Zelda purred—seductive as usual—but I barely heard her over my own heartbeat pounding furiously behind my eyes. “It’s only logical. Take the money; get out while you still can and find yourself an existence actually worthy of your potential.” I swallowed hard. My throat hurt. “What about Dacre?” I said, and my voice faded on the last word that I hated myself for it. “I should see him, hear it from him… once… Let me hear him say this.”She laughed. “He is the one who even okayed this. He doesn’t want to see you. He doesn’t want you. You heard the voice notes. The recordings. H

    Katherine’s povWasn’t Grace the head maid? Why was she being treated like some slave?“Stop it!” I shouted, though I knew they couldn’t hear. My breath fogged the glass, my fists aching against it.Grace stumbled forward, caught herself, but I saw the tears in her eyes even from here. She kept her head low, no defense, no words. Just silent suffering.I waited in my room until Grace came to meet me.“What is going on?” I asked. “Why are you being treated that way by Carla!?”“Apparently I was demoted to being an ordinary maid and Carla is now the new head maid.”“What?! Have you seen Dacre? Maybe you can…”“I can’t,” she said. “They told me I wasn’t allowed.They’d refused her just like they had me.She set down something on my bedside table. It was a simple sandwich wrapped in wax paper.“You missed these at dinner.”“A letter,” she whispered.I scowled and accepted it. The writing on the body looked like it was Dacre’s. He was up and he didn’t want to see me? Why?But when I start

    Zelda’s povI blinked, mouth parting a little bit, because it was his voice in the words — not literally, but the phrasing, the bluntness of them. That was Dacre. That was how he would have actually put it if he really wanted to end something.A weird shudder went through me. Half of me wanted to put it in a frame and make Katherine read it till her tears had soaked through the paper.“This is . . .” I stopped and started again, trying to sound cool. “Yes. It’s right.”Maya didn’t say anything. She only shifted her weight and reached into her bag.“There’s also the recording,” she said, pulling out her laptop and sliding it across the desk. She opened the lid, pressed a key, and after a moment, Dacre’s voice filled the room.Not his real voice — but God, it sounded like it.“You think you matter to me? You don’t. You were useful, that’s all. Now I’m through with you. Take what I’ve given you and get lost. And stay the hell away from me.”I hated hearing it. The sound of my own son’s v

    Zelda’s povI looked at Renee as she entered and frowned.“You’re just enjoying this aren’t you?” I asked as she shrugged. “Are you sure this woman is the one who almost killed Dacre? I don’t want to call the police and make a fool of myself.”“Trust me ma, she is the one who caused all this trouble. I’ve given you the evidence haven’t I?”“All you gave me was a screenshot of her chats with a random man about killing dacre. But what I need to do is trace the number. The number keeps going to voicemail. I need solid proof.”She looked around and nodded. “I’ll get you more solid proof.”I nodded as she left.I then called my lawyer and talked to him for a while before cutting the call and leaning back to think on what he had said.“If she were married, it’d be messier. But she’s not. You could get rid of her.” That was all I needed to know and I could feel my insides jumping for joy at that little knowledge.“Kick her out,” he said. Like it was that easy. It wasn’t. Not with Dacre’s te

    Katherine’s povI sat in my room that day wondering how I was going to go about my day as I started to feel bad for everything that was happening. How was I being beaten around like this? This was wrong.A knock on my door had me looking up as it opened with Grace coming in.“Madam Zelda wants to see you,” she said as I sighed.“Why? What does she want now?”She shrugged. “I have no idea. But whatever it is, it looks serious.”Now my heart was thumping. I nodded and got up as I grabbed my phone and walked out of my room.On my way to the study I could see so many people looking at me like I had killed someone but I tried to ignore them. They were not my problem.The moment I got into the study I could see her pacing around.“You ungrateful bitch!” She snapped as she pointed to me. “After everything—everything—you repay us with this?”I blinked my eyes, still trying to grasp the present. “What… what are you talking about?”“Don’t play dumb with me,” she hissed, slamming the paper down
