เข้าสู่ระบบLife forced Violet into a difficult situation. She had no choice but to get married to the billionaire, Stewart Johnston, so that she could get money to pay for her ailing mother’s treatment, but that only marked the beginning of her misfortune. Stewart treated Violet like a trash and named her a moocher since she got married to him because of his money. When Violet couldn’t take the humiliation anymore, she walked away from the marriage and she got the biggest shock of her life.

Ángela volvió… me voy a casar con ella… pero siento que estoy perdiendo mi propia alma, ya no hay café perfecto en las mañanas, ya no hay sándwich sin corteza, desde que te fuiste hace un mes, sufro de dolores de estómago, toda la empresa es un caos sin ti Trina, dime, ¿este también es un sueño? Te sueño cada noche Trina.
Katrina no pudo contener la lágrima que rodó por su mejilla. —Está borracho, señor Miles. Duerma, mañana es su gran día, al fin se casará con la mujer que tanto ama. Pero él no la soltó. Sus manos grandes y cálidas acariciaron el rostro de Katrina, limpiando su lágrima. En un segundo se borraron cinco años de límites y jerarquías, Marcus unió sus labios con los de ella. El corazón de Katrina estalló. Sabía que estaba mal. Sabía que mañana él sería el esposo de otra. Pero el deseo acumulado, el dolor de perderlo y la intensidad de sus besos la devoraron. Esa noche no hubo secretaria ni jefe. Solo un hombre desesperado y una mujer entregándole todo lo que le quedaba. —Te amo, Marcus —gimió ella en la oscuridad, sabiendo que el alcohol borraría sus palabras al amanecer. — Trina, no me dejes, no puedo seguir sin ti, mi Trina… Los gemidos de Marcus se mesclaban con los de Katrina, la tomó sin descanso varias veces esa noche, jamás la llamó por otro nombre, siempre le susurraba Mi Trina… Horas después, antes de que los primeros rayos del sol iluminaran la habitación, Katrina se vistió en silencio. Lo miró dormir por última vez. Escribió una notita como siempre lo hacía cuando traía a Marcus borracho y lo dejó sobre la mesa de noche, “No olvide tomar sus medicinas”...De vuelta al presente, Katrina mordía sus uñas mientras el médico la miraba con una sonrisa dulce.
— Mi niña que te preocupa, te preparaste tanto para la inseminación asistida, y tuviste la suerte de quedar embarazada antes. ¿Cómo le decía al su doctor de confianza, que el padre de ese bebé era Marcus, el hombre que había amado por cinco años pero que ahora era el esposo de otra? Había pasado un mes desde esa noche donde por única vez se entregó a sus deseos y a los brazos de Marcus. Y ahora llevaba a su bebé. — Es que no es tan fácil, necesito que esto aparezca que es inseminación asistida. — Ya veo, no quieres saber del padre. — No, prefiero hacer esto sola, como lo planee desde el comienzo. — Bueno, sabes que te apoyaré en todo no te preocupes. — Gracias doctor. Katrina se levantó y caminó por los pasillos de la clínica, estaba embarazada, estaba esperando un bebé de Marcus, su cabeza era un lio, iba perdida en sus pensamientos cuando chocó con una espalda, y como si el universo le hiciera una broma macabra, el aroma que conocía tan bien la envolvió, levantó la mirada para encontrarse con los ojos verde de Marcus. —Trina… cuánto tiempo. ¿Estás bien? La sangre abandonó su rostro. —Señor Miles. —Marcus —corrigió con suavidad—. Ya no eres mi secretaria. ¿Qué haces aquí? ¿Estás enferma? El sobre en su bolso parecía arder. —Yo… Un resfrío. ¿Y usted? —Yo vine por unos exámenes —comentó él—. Hemos intentado tener un bebé con Angy, pero no queda embarazada. Quería ver si el problema soy yo. El mundo se inclinó bajo sus pies. Ella llevaba en el vientre al hijo que él buscaba con su esposa. —Espero que todo salga bien —murmuró, intentando marcharse pero Marcus la sostuvo del brazo haciendo que su piel ardiera. —Gracias por lo que hiciste esa noche. Carlos me contó que fuiste tú quien me llevó a casa. No recuerdo nada… solo tu nota. Gracias Trina, no tenías que hacerlo. Katrina forzó una sonrisa. —No fue nada. —¿Estás bien? ¿Necesitas algo? —Solo descansar. Él finalmente la soltó. —Cuídate, Trina, si necesitas cualquier cosa, no dudes en contactarme. — Está bien. Katrina caminó lo más rápido que sus fuerzas le permitían, alejándose de Marcus como si quedarse un segundo más pudiera delatarla. Salió a la calle y respiró con dificultad apoyando una mano sobre su vientre. —No puede saberlo… —susurró. Marcus Miles no debía enterarse jamás que en su vientre crecía su hijo. Porque si él lo descubría… podrían quitarle a su bebé, en su vientre llevaba el heredero que él tanto estaba buscando.~VIOLET~ The music swelled, soft and angelic, as the double doors of the church opened. My heart thundered against my ribs. For a moment, my knees felt weak, but then I caught sight of them—Stewart, standing at the altar, and my children, dressed in their little suit and dress, grinning wide. The veil brushed softly against my face, but I could still see his eyes. Stewart’s eyes. They locked on me the second I appeared, and I swore I saw them glisten. This is it, I thought. This is the dream. Everything I’ve wanted. After everything. After the nights of tears, the betrayals, the fights, the near losses… this is where it was always leading. To him. To us. Every step I took down that aisle, my mind replayed the journey—from the day we met, to the nights I swore I hated him, to the moments I thought I had lost him forever. But he was here. Waiting. And I had never been more certain in my life that I was walking toward home. This was right. I had made the right choice. ⸻ STEWART The
~STEWART~The air was filled with joy, relief, and laughter. After everything we had been through—after all the fear and the pain—to finally be standing here with Violet and the children safe felt like a miracle. It felt like destiny. Everything had happened so fast. One minute, we were celebrating the children’s birthday, and the next, they had been kidnapped.The kids ran around the ward, their laughter echoing through the walls. Vincent was joking with one of the detectives, and Madam Josephine, who had come by to see her grandchildren, was smiling faintly—something I hadn’t seen her do in a long time.This scene was like an answered prayer. The peaceful life I had always wished for. Everyone was here, alive, healthy, and bouncy—except my sister, Katie. She got what she deserved. If she hadn’t let her childishness control her, she would have been with us today. Hell no! There wouldn’t even be a need for us to be at the hospital because she wouldn’t have helped Willow commit the cri
~GENERAL~Violet opened her eyes weakly. The ray of the bulb sharply diffracted into her eyes, causing her to close them again. After a few seconds, she opened them once more and let out a gasp.Stewart and Josephine looked in the direction of the noise. Their lips curled into bright smiles when they saw she was awake. They rushed to her side and held her shoulders.“Violet! My daughter,” Josephine muttered, holding her and scrutinizing her with her eyes to be sure she wasn’t in pain or in need of the doctor’s attention.“Babe, how do you feel?” Stewart asked. Neither of them was giving her the space to breathe.Blinking as she tried to keep her eyes open, she whispered, “My children. Where are Nathan and Nyla?” Her voice was low and hoarse. She still hadn’t recovered from the strain she had put on it the other day.“The children… I… I will bring them here. They are in their ward too,” Josephine said, standing and rushing out.Stewart held her hands and stared at her. She was awake, a
GENERALViolet’s heart pounded. It felt like an army of soldiers was marching on her chest all at once. Her body trembled. The children gasped when they saw the object Willow was holding. The fear in their eyes was undeniable—something that couldn’t be compared to anything else.She raised her head, eyes swollen, face smudged with tears and snot. “Willow, you cannot do this. Not to me and the children. Please, Willow.” She averted her gaze and shifted it to Katie, who was obviously enjoying her reaction. “Katie, you have to help me. These children are not bastards. They are your brother’s children—your niece and nephew. You cannot do this to us.” Her voice was hoarse and shaky from the weight of fear.Katie folded her arms and snorted. “I don’t want to hear that rubbish from you. I don’t have a niece and nephew yet. My brother is just as childless as me.”Willow burst into laughter. “Oh my God, Violet! Do you think this crazy stunt of yours will work on any of us? No, my dear. We’ve p
~GENERAL~“Aunty Kate!!!” The children ran out of the house and scurried toward Kate, who was hopping out of her car. They had bright smiles on their faces, and their arms were already widely opened.Kate chuckled. She stooped to their level and widened her arms so they could run into them.“Oh, my
