In a dimly lit room of Farwell Manor, the flickering firelight cast long shadows across the antique furnishings. Madam Farwell sat motionless behind her desk, her eyes fixed coldly on the cream envelope lying before her like a curse.

The seal had already been broken just enough to confirm what she feared.

~An invitation.~

~Ethan Farwell and Sophia Hawke's rehearsal dinner and wedding day~

A slow, contemptuous scoff escaped her lips.

She rose with the heavy elegance of old aristocracy, her black silk gown whispering against the hardwood floor as she approached the fireplace. Without hesitation, she tossed the invitation into the flames. The paper curled like a dying flower, its edges blackening before disintegrating entirely.

She didn’t blink. She didn't flinch.

Her eyes, hollow and sharp, reflected the dancing embers as a memory rose from the ashes.

A tragic memory from four years ago.

Sherah. Her blood. Her granddaughter in every way that mattered.

  • Revenge Becomes Her   CHAPTER 114 - Invitation

    Sophia screamed in glee. She twirled in front of the mirror, laughing, her silk robe brushing against her thighs as she admired herself. The scar across her forehead didn’t seem so ugly today. Her heart pounded from the thrill of Ethan’s call.“I’m getting married… I’m finally getting married,” she whispered to her reflection.Then—A blood-curdling holler erupted.Rebecca’s voice pierced through the walls, “SOPHIA?!”In a split second, thundering footsteps pounded down the hallway.Silas and Rebecca burst into Sophia’s room, panic overtaking their expressions.“What happened?! Is everything okay, dear?” Silas demanded, his face flushed.Rebecca reached out to her daughter in alarm, arms wide, her voice shaking. “Are you hurt?! What was that scream?!”Sophia turned toward them, her face lit up like a thousand suns. “Everything is more than fine,” she beamed. "Ethan wants to get married. Right away. Next week!”A beat of stunned silence.Then—Rebecca gasped, hand flying to her mouth. “

    With renewed determination, Fallon checked out of the hotel and hurriedly booked a flight back to New York.Oblivious that her movements are both monitored by Nathan, who has her in the tracker while Ethan has Brooke’s men following her movements. The moment Ethan receives the news that Fallon is returning to New York. He called Brooke. “You can now stop following her. She already got my message,” Ethan says with certainty.Despite his annoyance at Fallon's behavior, the urge to meet her is still there. But he needs to set his foot down. In his head, Fallon is overstepping and disrespecting Sherah’s memory, oblivious that the same woman he is trying to push away was his own wife. Meanwhile, at the Kingsley Residence.A cab was parked outside the house, and Fallon, only carrying a small bag, hastily entered the gate.“I needed to tell Nathan everything that had happened so he could help rectify things before it got out of hand. Luckily, Ethan had a different idea about me,” she sa

    IN ST. JOSEPH ORPHANAGE – MOTHER SUPERIOR 'S OFFICE…Fallon stood in the warm light filtering through the stained-glass window, her eyes red, throat tight. The weight of her past pressed heavily on her chest. The story the Mother Superior told her is more than enough fuel to ignite the memory that had been buried in her mind. And it triggered not just the loneliness inside her but also a decades-old fury she never knew she was holding.Hatred is too strong; it could burn a whole city.The Mother Superior reached out and cupped Fallon’s trembling hands with her own. Jolting Fallon back to the present. “Don’t worry, child. Your secret is safe with me,” she said, assuringly.Fallon swallowed hard, her voice barely above a whisper.“You’re as kind as the day I met you… When I thought the world had forgotten me.”A small, bittersweet smile tugged at the corners of the Mother Superior’s lips.“The world may forget, Sherah, but some of us remember.”Fallon wiped her tears, then left, wi

    Ethan stared blankly at his phone, Fallon’s contact information glowing on the screen.He typed, deleted, retyped, then deleted again.“What the hell am I even supposed to say?” he muttered under his breath. ~Hi, I’ve been stalking my fiancée’s shopping trips just to run into you accidentally? That won’t sound creepy at all.~ He thought to himself mockingly. Across from him, Madam Farwell, still flipping through her planner, finally closed it with a quiet snap. She watched her grandson with careful eyes.“Is something wrong?” she asked gently. “You came here unannounced, asked for Fallon’s number… and now that I’ve given it to you, you look more troubled than ever.”Ethan shook his head, forcing a smile. “It’s nothing, Grandma.”He leaned over and kissed her forehead, then glanced at his phone like it had just buzzed with urgency. “Actually, I forgot I'd got a meeting with some new investors. I should go.”Before she could reply, he was out the door.CONCURRENTLY, in Farwell Group – C

    In the KINGSLEY RESIDENCE, Fallon's room. Nathan paced near the bed, worry etched across his face as Fallon sat up slowly, pale and shaken from the earlier episode. An on-call doctor had just left after running basic checks, and now the room was quiet, too quiet.“Are you okay now?” Nathan asks in concern.She nods. “Didn’t you hear the doctor? I just need some rest.” Nathan frowns, “Let’s go to the hospital tomorrow. Full scan. Blood work. MRI, everything,” he suggests with concern. Fallon nodded, “I’ll go on my own.” She held his hand assuringly, “No need for you to worry about me. This is just stress.”He blinked. “What do you mean?”“I told you before that Sophia… She’s wearing me out,” she explains playfully. “She’s too much to handle."He hesitated, clearly torn, but nodded slowly. “Alright. But you call me if anything happens.”She reached up and cupped his face gently, a flicker of guilt in her eyes. “Promise.”THE NEXT DAY…Mount Sinai Hospital…"I don’t like this. You col

  • Revenge Becomes Her   CHAPTER 109 - Obsession

    Fallon’s behavior left Ethan utterly mystified.Her name lived rent-free in his mind, echoing through his thoughts and keeping him wide awake each night.Her handwriting, the way she cooked, even the coffee she made all reminded him achingly of Sherah.Despite the overwhelming urge to dig deeper, he held himself back. Fallon had already been caught in the crossfire once. The last thing he wanted was to paint a target on her back. He knew too well what happened to those who got too close.Unaware, of course, that the very woman he longed to protect was the one orchestrating everything from the shadows.Still, the desire to see her again clawed at him. He couldn’t silence it. So he devised a plan, a carefully crafted “coincidence.” And the key to executing it was Sophia.If Sophia went shopping with Fallon, Ethan would just happen to be nearby. Casual. Coincidental. Just enough to slip into Fallon’s life without drawing suspicion.The thought kept him up for nights. He tossed and turned,

  • Revenge Becomes Her   CHAPTER 108 - With a BANG

    “WITH A BANG?”Fallon’s playful words echoed in Nathan’s mind.“What is she thinking?” he muttered.Suddenly, his burner phone rang.Area code: 744—Acapulco, Mexico.Nathan pinched the bridge of his nose. “What kind of trouble do you have for me today, Detective Scott?” he uttered with a mix of irritation and curiosity.He answered the call, but before he could speak, the man on the other end blurted out,“Boss, my cover’s blown. He saw me—I think he knows.”Nathan shot up from his seat, slamming his hand on the table. “What!?” he shouted. “Did he say anything?”“Yes,” the man replied—and the next words Nathan heard fascinated him.Shortly after, the call ended. Nathan slowly sank back into his seat, an odd sense of ease settling in his chest.His eyes fell on a handkerchief Fallon had accidentally left behind. He squinted, deep in thought.“I should tell her now,” he whispered to himself.He grabbed his work phone and sent her a text:“Wait for me in the parking lot.”MEANWHILE.Fallo

    In the Farwell Group Head Office.On the CEO Floor.Sophia walked with purpose.Today wasn’t about business. Today was personal.Dressed in an elegant navy coatdress and heels sharp enough to pierce glass, she stepped into Farwell Group’s headquarters like she already owned it. She wasn’t here as Walton Unlimited’s liaison officer, she was here as Ethan Farwell’s fiancée.The future Mrs. Farwell.And she wanted everyone to see it.To accept it.To forget the first wife.That name still lingered like an unwelcome ghost. Employees still whispered it. Some still spared glances at the portrait in the founder’s wing, quiet reverence for a woman long gone.Sophia noticed. She always noticed.“Sherah’s memory ends today,” she whispered under her breath, her tone low and eerie.She stepped onto the CEO floor and was immediately intercepted.“Miss Hawke,” Noel said carefully, positioning himself in front of the office door. “Mr. Farwell is in back-to-back meetings. He doesn't want to be disturb
