THE DAY I STOPPED LOVING YOU Keep Your Enemy Close
Lisa I sat across from Adrian in the quiet upper room of the Croft building, the black folder from Isabella still closed on the table between us, and the headache from the lawyer’s card had finally faded into a dull ache behind my eyes, but the memories stayed sharp and heavy as I told him everything about Claire.I told him about the hospital suite in the first life, the way she had held my hand and spoken soft words while wearing Richard’s cologne, and the way she and Richard had taken each other right there on the sofa while I lay dying only a few feet away, every moan and every cruel sentence carving itself into me until I passed out, and Adrian listened without interrupting, his face calm but his eyes darker than usual as the full picture settled.When I finished he leaned back, one arm resting along the chair, and for a moment he said nothing, then a slow, almost thoughtful look crossed his face as if he was turning Claire over in his mind like a new piece on the board.“She
THE DAY I STOPPED LOVING YOU Blood That Remembers
The old lawyer’s card was wedged between the pages of a forgotten notebook at the back of her father’s desk drawer, Lisa almost missed it, the corners were soft with age, the ink faded to a dull brown, yet the name still cut clear across the cream surface: Jonathan Merrick, Esq. – Confidential Estate Matters, she had never seen this card in her first life, or perhaps she had, and the poison had simply erased it.The moment her fingers closed around it, the headache began, it started behind her eyes, a dull throb that grew into a vicious pulse, each beat dragging her backward through time until the present room blurred and the past rushed in like floodwater, she staggered, one hand gripping the edge of the desk, the other pressed hard against her temple, the card felt hot against her skin, or maybe that was only the fever of memory.She saw the hospital suite again, cream walls, the scent of lilies fighting the sting of disinfectant, machines beeping out the weakening rhythm of her own
THE DAY I STOPPED LOVING YOU Sweet cruelty
The memory did not arrive with noise or warning. It simply opened, clear and cold, as if someone had turned a page she had tried to keep closed.In the first life it had been a quiet afternoon in the private hospital wing. The pain had been manageable that day, so the nurses left her alone for longer than usual. Lisa lay propped against the pillows, watching the slow drip of the IV, when Claire walked in carrying a small paper bag and a soft smile.“I brought the tea you like,” Claire said, setting the bag down and pulling a chair close to the bed. She took Lisa’s hand without asking, her fingers warm and gentle. “You look a little better today.”Lisa had been glad to see her, even though her sight was too poor to notice the feigned pretence. At that point Claire was still the one person who came without making her feel like a burden. Richard visited, but his visits had started to feel careful and distant. Claire still sat close and spoke like a friend.They talked about small
THE DAY I STOPPED LOVING YOU FlashBack
The estate was quiet after midnight when the memory hit her without warning.Lisa sat on the edge of her bed with the court papers still locked in the drawer and the latest message from Adrian unanswered on her phone. She had been strong for weeks.. after fate spared her now She had refused Richard in public. She had pushed his father out of her house. She was healthy now, clear-headed, and no longer the dying girl everyone once pitied. Yet the past still knew how to find her, It started with a sound.In the first life she had come home early from a hospital check. The pain had been lighter that day, so the driver brought her back before evening. She remembered the front hall, the soft light, and the low voices coming from the small lounge near the stairs. She had walked closer, still in her coat, thinking Richard was on a call. Then she heard Claire’s quiet laugh.She stopped with her hand on the doorframe. The voices were too close, too soft. She heard Richard say something about
THE DAY I STOPPED LOVING YOU Proposal gone wrong
Three months later, on the exact date that still lived under her skin like a brand, Lisa woke already restless.In the first life this had been the night Richard asked her out properly and she had said yes with a soft open heart, the same night he had driven her away from the lights and taken her in the back seat of his car while rain tapped against the roof, his hands careful at first and then hungrier as she opened for him, the slow stretch and the deep push and the way she had come around him whispering his name like it belonged only to him. The memory rose without permission, vivid enough that her thighs pressed together under the sheets before she forced herself out of bed.She came prepared.The reception was already loud with glass and conversation when the whole city had gathered to watch the young heir and heiress confess Thier love for each other. Richard found her near the terrace doors. He looked controlled in the way men looked when they had decided to take a risk, and t
THE DAY I STOPPED LOVING YOU Talk of The Devil
Isabella Voss arrived before the formal invitation could even reach her, talk of the devil. I was still in the study going over the limited reports the temporary administrator allowed me when the staff announced she was already at the gate. I had expected resistance, excuses, or at least a delayed reply. Instead she walked into the main sitting room as if she had been waiting for the call, calm and composed in a tailored coat, her expression unreadable.“You wanted to see me,” she said.I did not offer tea. I did not waste time with politeness that neither of us needed. “You sent a guard to pick me up that night at the restaurant. Why?”Isabella met my eyes without flinching. “Because you were alone, it was late, and someone needed to make sure you got home safely.”“That is not an answer.”“It is the only honest one I can give you right now.” She sat without being invited, crossing her legs with easy confidence. “You can believe I was watching you for my own reasons, or you can belie
