As the first rays of dawn filtered through the blinds of the hospital waiting room, casting long, pale shadows, the weight of the night’s events pressed down on Queen and Dante.

The initial shock had begun to give way to a gnawing anxiety, a desperate yearning for any news about Megan. Wendy sat quietly beside Dante, her presence a silent question mark in the tense atmosphere.

The police officer returned with a weary look on his face. “We’ve reviewed the CCTV footage from the campus gate,” he began, his voice low and serious. “It’s… not very clear. The area was dimly lit, and the crucial moment was obscured by the branches of the acacia tree.”

Queen’s heart sank. That one piece of evidence, the potential key to unlocking the mystery, was shrouded in darkness.

“However,” the police officer continued, his gaze meeting Queen’s, “we did see a figure running away from the scene shortly after the estimated time of the attack. We will continue working on it".

A chill ran down Queen’s s

  • THE ABANDONED WIFE   THAT'S NOT LOVE, THAT'S CONVENIENCE

    The silence that fell over the Fodert home was more deafening than any scream. Bill, still slumped in his chair, stared blankly at the polished dining table, the scene of a battle he had both won and lost. Sarah, her face streaked with tears, could only manage broken sobs, her body trembling with the aftershocks of fear and heartbreak. And Megan, the knife now dropped on the floor, felt the adrenaline of the moment drain away, leaving her hollow and cold. Her father's final words, "You cease to be a Fodert," echoed in her mind, a final, definitive severing of the ties that bound them.The tension was unbearable. Megan couldn't stay another minute in a house that felt like a tomb. Without another word, she turned and fled to her room, grabbing a suitcase and shoving clothes and books into it with a frantic energy. Her hands were shaking so badly that she struggled to zip it shut. She knew she had made her choice, and now she had to live with the consequences.Her first call was to Dan

  • THE ABANDONED WIFE   YOU CEASE TO BE A FODERT!

    The confetti had settled, the celebratory cheers had faded, but the echoes of "Will you marry me?" still resonated in Megan’s heart. Graduating with honors, an engagement ring sparkling on her finger, and Dante by her side, Megan felt an exhilarating sense of triumph. They had not just survived; they had flourished. Their love, once a fragile flame in the wind, now burned brightly, a beacon of hope after the long, dark years.Their post-graduation plan seemed clear, at least in their minds: a brief summer of celebration, followed by meticulous wedding planning. Megan envisioned a small, intimate ceremony, perhaps in a botanical garden, surrounded by their closest friends and family. Dante, ever practical, was already sketching out potential budgets, a testament to his grounded nature. They dreamt of a future where their paths, intertwined, would lead them to build a family, careers, and a life filled with the quiet joy they had fought so hard to find.However, life, as they were qui

  • THE ABANDONED WIFE   WILL YOU MARRY ME?

    The years that followed Lizbeth's dramatic arrest were a slow, steady journey of healing and growth. For Megan and Dante, their love story, once a fragile bud threatened by a storm, blossomed into a resilient and beautiful flower. It wasn't a sudden, fairytale romance; it was built on a foundation of forgiveness, patience, and a deep, shared understanding of the darkness they had overcome. The first year back on campus was a delicate dance of rebuilding trust and finding their footing, not just individually, but as a couple.Megan and Dante began their new chapter tentatively. Their first few "dates" were simple, quiet affairs—a cup of coffee at the campus library, a walk through the manicured gardens, or a study session in an empty classroom. There was no pressure, only the comfort of shared presence. They talked for hours, not just about their classes, but about their fears, their hopes, and the lingering trauma that still surfaced at unexpected moments."I still have nightmares

  • THE ABANDONED WIFE   FULL-BLOWN FLIGHT RISK

    The warehouse was a symphony of chaos and control. The air, thick with dust and the metallic scent of Ghost’s blood, was now punctuated by the tense silence that followed Lizbeth’s frantic screams. The police, a phalanx of silhouettes against the blinding lights, were a portrait of disciplined tension. Every officer held their ground, guns trained on Lizbeth, their movements a choreographed tableau of readiness. Lizbeth, however, was a wild card. Her grip on the knife, though trembling, was a real and present danger. Detective Miller, who had been coordinating the tactical team, now pressed his microphone to his lips. "Lizbeth, this is Detective Miller. We have the warehouse surrounded. The exits are sealed. There's nowhere for you to go. Let the hostage go, and no one else gets hurt."Lizbeth's manic laughter echoed in the vast space. "Hostage? She's not a hostage! She's the reason I'm here! She's the one who should be punished!""Let me go! I have a flight! Do you hear me? I have

  • THE ABANDONED WIFE   COLD, CALCULATING AND COMPLETELY UNHINGED

    Detective Amelia Vance floored the accelerator, her unmarked car a dark blur weaving through the campus traffic. The pursuit was on, but a sinking feeling of dread churned in her stomach. She was one car against a city-wide operation, and the clock was ticking. Lizbeth’s reckless driving made her a liability on the road, but Ghost’s methodical mind was the real danger.The dispatch crackled in her ear, relaying the message from Detective Miller. He was already mobilizing a full-scale tactical team, but they were still minutes away. Amelia knew she couldn’t wait. She had to stay on their tail, a single, relentless shadow.Meanwhile, in the back of the white van, Megan fought a rising panic. The canvas sack was stifling, the movement of the van jostling her painfully. The metallic scent was overpowering, and her mind reeled back to the last time she'd been powerless and trapped. She focused on the little things: the faint hum of the tires on the asphalt, the distant sirens that gave h

  • THE ABANDONED WIFE   WE HIT QUICK!

    The transition back to campus was a strange kaleidoscope of emotions for Megan. The fear, though muted, still hummed beneath the surface, a constant, low thrum. Yet, there was also a blossoming sense of empowerment, a quiet defiance born from her decision to reclaim her life; the campus gates, once a symbol of terror, now felt like a threshold to be crossed, not a barrier to flee.Her return was met with a wave of warmth and concern. Students, faculty, and even some of the administrative staff offered smiles, words of encouragement, and genuine inquiries about her well-being. Professor Mendez was a constant, reassuring presence, ensuring her schedule was manageable and that she had access to counselling services. Queen was her steadfast shadow, her fierce loyalty a comforting shield. And Dante, true to his word, maintained a respectful distance, his presence a quiet, supportive anchor rather than an insistent demand. They exchanged hesitant smiles, brief, understanding glances acr
