AlexI woke up to small hands shaking my shoulder and Phil's voice calling, "Dad! Dad, wake up!"I opened my eyes groggily to find my son standing beside my bed, already dressed for the day in his favorite dinosaur t-shirt."Phil? What time is it?" I squinted at the clock. 6:30 AM."I've been awake forever!" Phil said with the exuberance only a six-year-old could have this early in the morning. "Can we have breakfast together? Like a real family?"The words "real family" made my heart swell. I pulled him into a hug, careful of his healing incisions. "Of course we can, champ. How are you feeling this morning?""Really good! My side barely hurts anymore." He squirmed out of my embrace. "Can we check on Grandma, too? I want to show her the drawing I made yesterday.""That sounds perfect." I got out of bed and grabbed my robe. "Give me a few minutes to wash up, and then we'll go see her together."Phil waited impatiently while I brushed my teeth and washed my face.

Vanessa The drive back to the farmhouse took about forty minutes. I was rehearsing my story about the "hospital visit" when I pulled into the driveway and saw Michael standing on the front porch with his arms crossed.Something about his posture made my stomach drop. He didn't look concerned or welcoming. He looked angry.I got out of the truck slowly, keeping my expression innocent. "Michael? Is everything okay?""That's what I would like to ask you, Rebecca." His voice was cold. "Or should I call you by your real name?"My heart stopped. Stay calm, I told myself. Stay calm and deny everything."I don't understand what you're talking about," I said, walking toward him with a confused expression. "What do you mean, my real name?""Don't lie to me anymore." Michael pulled out his phone and held it up so I could see the screen. "The news. It's all over the news."I looked at the screen and felt my blood turn to ice.WANTED: VANESSA Hartman There was my face plastered across a news web

VanessaI woke up early the next morning to find a response to my email waiting in my inbox. My heart raced with excitement as I opened it."I'm interested. Meet me at Rosewood Café, 10 AM today. Come alone. I'll be wearing a blue tie. D.C."Perfect. David Chen had taken the bait.I waited until Michael was up and making breakfast before I announced my plans for the day."Michael, I need to go back to the hospital for a follow-up appointment," I said, keeping my voice weak and in pain. "They want to check on the internal bleeding they were worried about."Michael looked concerned immediately. "Do you want me to drive you? I don't think you should be driving yourself again.""No, no. You've done so much already. Besides, don't you have work on the farm today?" I gave him a grateful smile. "I'll be fine. It's just a quick check-up."He hesitated, clearly torn. "If you're sure...""I'm sure. I'll be back before lunch."After Michael reluctantly agreed, I got ready and took his truck, dri

VanessaI ran through the dark streets for what felt like hours, my injured ribs screaming with every breath. Behind me, I could still hear sirens wailing, searching for me in the night.The hospital security had responded faster than I'd expected. By the time I'd made it out of the building, police cars were already pulling up to the entrance. I barely escaped through a back alley, my heart pounding so hard I thought it would burst.Now, blocks away from the hospital, I finally allowed myself to slow down. I ducked into a shadowed doorway and tried to catch my breath, pressing my hand against my aching side.Pain shot through me with every inhale. I knew I had definitely made my injuries worse with all this running. But at least I was free, hadn't caught me.I pulled the baseball cap lower over my face and started walking again, trying to blend in with the few pedestrians still out at this late hour. I needed to get back to Michael's farmhouse. It was the only safe place I had.But a

AlexI woke up the next morning feeling more refreshed than I had in weeks. The headache was completely gone, and for the first time in days, I felt like I could actually face what lay ahead.After a quick shower, I quickly went downstairs to have breakfast. Maria had clearly been inspired by Abigail's visit and made a full spread of eggs, bacon, and fresh fruit. I ate a little before heading straight to the hospital to check on my mother.Dr. Patterson met me outside her room with good news."Your mother has been doing remarkably well," he said, reviewing her chart. "Her blood pressure has stabilized, and she's responded well to the new medications. Honestly, I'm surprised at how resilient she's been.""So what's the prognosis?" I asked hopefully."Given her overall condition with the cancer, I think she'd be more comfortable recovering at home. She'll need round-the-clock nursing care and strict medication management, but there's no medical reason to keep her here anymore."Relief

Alex I must have dozed off because I woke up to the smell of something delicious cooking. I opened my eyes slowly, relieved to find that the headache had dulled to a manageable throb.Abigail was in my kitchen. I could hear pots and pans clanging, and I could smell garlic and herbs. I sat up carefully, the room only spinning a little this time.Maria appeared with a knowing smile. "Your secretary is quite something, Mr. Thompson. She's been cooking for the past hour.""She didn't have to do that.""I told her that, but she insisted. Said you needed someone to make sure you ate properly." Maria's expression softened. "It's nice to see someone taking care of you for once, sir. You have been so alone since Miss Vanessa left."I thought about correcting her, that Vanessa had never really taken care of me, that our marriage had been based on lies from the start. But before I could say anything, Abigail emerged from the kitchen carrying a tray."You're awake! Good timing." She set the tray
