Lauren was panting heavily as she struggled against the grip of the two security men holding her. Her chest rose and fell violently while tears streamed endlessly down her face.

The expensive makeup she had carefully worn earlier was now ruined completely, leaving dark stains beneath her swollen eyes.

Her hair was scattered messily across her shoulders, and the elegant image she once protected so fiercely had collapsed beyond repair.

Her eyes remained fixed on the red card lying on the floor

    Moments later, still at the graveyard, the driver opened the car door just outside the gate as Curtis carried Tessa inside and gently drop her on the backseat.The cold evening wind blew softly around them, carrying the scent of wet earth and flowers from the cemetery behind. Tessa looked completely drained.Her face was pale from crying too much, and her body no longer carried the strength it had earlier when she screamed at Curtis beside their son's grave.She had cried until her entire body became weak.Even while Curtis carried her toward the car, her fingers still clutched weakly against his suit unconsciously, almost like her body no longer had the energy to resist properly anymore.Curtis carefully bent and placed her gently against the backseat.His movements were slow and cautious, as though he was handling something fragile that could break completely with one wrong touch.The driver quietly stepped aside after opening the door fully, lowering his gaze respectfully as thoug

    "Tessa," he said, his heart heavy.The words came out weakly from Curtis's mouth, almost like they carried the weight of every regret crushing him from inside. His throat felt painfully tight as he stared at her kneeling before the grave.The cold evening wind brushed past them quietly, moving strands of Tessa's scattered hair across her wet cheeks. The cemetery remained silent except for the sound of her uneven breathing and quiet sobs.Curtis had never seen her like this before.Not even during their divorce.Not even on the day she lost the baby.The woman before him now looked completely shattered.And he knew he was one of the people responsible for it."Curtis," she called, cutting him off, still sobbing. "when I knelt to beg you to spare our son, what did you do? What did you do?"Her voice cracked loudly as she spoke.The pain inside those words felt unbearable.She slowly turned toward him, tears flowing uncontrollably down her face while anger trembled heavily through her e

    Tessa turned to leave but a hand held her from behind.The warmth of the grip instantly made her body stiffen. She did not even need to turn around to know who it was. That touch alone was familiar enough to pull painful memories back into her chest immediately.The noisy hall behind them had already started calming down after Lauren was dragged away. The earlier chaos was fading gradually, but the heaviness in the atmosphere still remained.Tessa slowly turned.Curtis stood behind her.His eyes were red, his face pale, and his expression carried the kind of regret that looked almost unbearable. The proud and composed Curtis Deveraux looked completely lost."Tessa." He called softly.The way he said her name sounded cautious, almost fragile, like he was afraid she would disappear if he spoke too loudly.But Tessa's expression hardened immediately.All the pain she suffered because of him flashed through her mind again in seconds.Talk about the humiliation.The divorce.The accusati

    Lauren was panting heavily as she struggled against the grip of the two security men holding her. Her chest rose and fell violently while tears streamed endlessly down her face. The expensive makeup she had carefully worn earlier was now ruined completely, leaving dark stains beneath her swollen eyes. Her hair was scattered messily across her shoulders, and the elegant image she once protected so fiercely had collapsed beyond repair.Her eyes remained fixed on the red card lying on the floor before her.The card felt more terrifying than prison itself.The security men finally loosened their grip slightly after Jason's words. The moment they released her arms, Lauren stumbled forward helplessly and landed hard on her knees before the card. Even the people who once admired her now looked at her with disgust, disappointment, or complete silence.Lauren's trembling fingers slowly reached toward the red card on the floor. Her breathing became rougher as she picked it up shakily. The c

    "What did you say?" Rosa cut in, shocked to her bones.The sharpness in her voice instantly drew more attention toward the entrance of the hall. She had just walked in moments ago after hearing there was chaos upstairs, but nothing could have prepared her for the scene before her. The atmosphere inside the hall was tense enough to suffocate someone. People stood frozen in clusters, whispering among themselves while staring toward the center of the commotion.Lauren was on the floor, held tightly by two security men.Curtis stood beside Tessa with a dark expression that frightened even Rosa herself.Paschal remained nearby, unusually quiet for once, while Mr. Wesley stood with folded arms, disappointment written all over his face.The entire place looked like the aftermath of an explosion.Rosa's eyes moved from one face to another before settling fully on Lauren. The girl's makeup was already ruined from crying. Her hair looked scattered wildly across her face while tears kept pour

    "Tell me everything, Paschal." Curtis said, his eyes fixed on him, burning with rage but his voice low.The entire hall had fallen into a strange silence after Curtis spoke. The earlier noise from glasses clinking, soft conversations, and footsteps around the venue had disappeared completely. It was as though everyone suddenly forgot how to breathe. Every single eye remained fixed on Paschal, waiting for his next words.Curtis stood stiffly beside Tessa, his chest rising slowly. His face looked pale under the bright lights of the hall, but the anger in his eyes was terrifying. Veins stood visibly around his neck while his fists tightened beside him. He looked like a man holding himself back from completely losing control.Paschal swallowed hard.For the first time since he walked into the hall, the playful smirk on his face was gone completely. The pressure in the room had changed. Earlier, Lauren still had a chance to manipulate the situation. But now, standing under everybody's
