Connie had asked to be dropped off at the mall to do some grocery shopping, while Baron took Rome straight to the quiet, tree-lined subdivision. The early evening air was cool, carrying with it the soft hum of crickets and the fading light of dusk.
"Nah, it’s nothing, Rome. Just a small favor," Baron replied casually, giving her a friendly nod.
She thanked him again with genuine gratitude, stepped out of the car, and gently closed the door.
Jen, the house helper, was already outside tending to the garden, watering the plants. She ha

Rome woke up with a start. She stirred from sleep, dizzy and sluggish as she tried to shift in bed. Her head throbbed, and she instinctively brought a hand to her temple. Morning light poured through the open curtains, casting a golden hue across the room. She had forgotten to pull them shut the night before, and now the sun was unforgiving.Her head was spinning.And she knew exactly why.The entire bottle of red wine she downed last night. This hangover was expected. She had braced herself for this. After all, this wasn’t her first time losing control to alcohol. But unlike that night ten years ago, this time... she remembered everything.Every single moment.The memory rushed in like a wave, and she turned her head t

Two hours had passed since Rome first heard the slow creak of the garage gate opening across the street. Jiggy was finally back from bringing her daughters to their ever-perfect, ever-loving father.The moment it fully sank in that Carol and Cayla were no longer beside her, a fresh wave of tears filled her eyes. She took another desperate gulp from her wine glass, as if the alcohol could dull the ache clawing at her chest.God. She had nearly emptied the whole bottle of red wine in just under an hour. And it wasn’t just any bottle. It was one of the finest they had stocked in the house. Rich. Expensive. Potent.But not even that could get her drunk.She wasn’t even used to drinking. In her mind, alcohol never solved anything. If it brought joy to anyone, it was probably Carol, who giggled every time she saw adults acting silly after a drink.Rome bit down

36 hours later.Cayson had just returned to the mansion from the hotel where his illegitimate son was staying when he received a phone call. The moment he saw his wife’s name flash on the screen, he dropped everything in his hands and immediately answered.“This is so frustrating, Rosenda Marie. You really let more than a day pass before calling me?”His voice brimmed with anger. He had waited two long days for this call. In desperation, he even tried reaching out through all of Rome’s social media accounts, but she remained silent. No replies, no updates. Cayson grew more anxious with every passing hour.Worried out of his mind, he eventually went to her parents, who were just as shocked to find out that Rome and the girls had left the country. They had no idea. Even

Rome was awakened that night by the subtle sound of their bedroom door opening and closing. She opened her eyes and listened closely. The room was dark and silent, the only audible noise was the soft hum of the AC system.She wasn’t the kind of person who easily woke up at every sound, but she couldn’t explain why her senses were suddenly alert, reacting to the faint creak of the door.Wait. The door opened and closed?She sat up in bed and instinctively looked to her side.Cayson wasn’t there.Her brows drew together in confusion as she glanced toward the bathroom. The door was open, but the lights were off. There was no way it was the bathroom door she heard.H

Rome stood stiffly by the front door, arms crossed, her eyes fixed on the car parked just outside. It was already past six in the evening. The five minutes Cayson had promised had turned into an hour.One whole hour before he finally came home.And she was furious. Her entire body was trembling with frustration, and though she'd been wanting to lie down to calm her nerves, she held off. She needed to speak to Cayson before he faced the kids.When he stepped out of the car, their eyes immediately locked. He offered her a soft smile as he shut the door and started walking toward her. As he got close enough to lean in for a kiss, she raised one hand and placed it firmly on his chest to stop him — keeping a careful, deliberate distance between them.
