Megan entered the room, her heart pounding hard against her ribs. Ruan’s question had been unusual, exposing her fears too quickly and leaving her no time to defend herself.

News in Phoenix spread fast, but she hadn’t expected Ruan to know that Samantha was back. And she could already suspect who had told him about the supposed friendship.

Since the day she helped her mother get out of prison, Ruan had acted strangely, always suspicious, but she couldn’t tell him the truth. Megan wanted to bury her past so that no one would ever find out what really happened.

With trembling hands, she called Josephine. She didn’t answer the first time, and that made Megan’s anxiety grow disproportionately. Megan rubbed her face, a scream trapped in her throat, not knowing what to do.

When she returned to Phoenix, she wanted to start over. She used Felix’s death as the perfect excuse to run away from her old life. She wasn’t willing to let anything or anyone ruin her plans again.

Not only that, but she

  • Unexpected Marriage: The night that changed my life   Chapter 71

    Megan’s body trembled uncontrollably, even more so when her eyes witnessed Josephine approach Osvaldo and ask him to calm down. Suddenly, all the memories of her past revisited her. Only with Josephine’s help could Osvaldo know her location.“I can’t believe you were capable of betraying me this way!” Her eyes filled with tears as she looked at her mother.Josephine shrugged, completely unconcerned with her daughter's feelings.“I’m sorry, Megan,” she said, but Megan knew Josephine felt nothing. “He is still your husband; he needed to know where you were.”Megan shook her head in denial.“Besides, he helped me get out of that jail, or have you forgotten that you used his money to pay the bail?”It was a nightmare, Megan thought. Of course, Josephine would side with him. Osvaldo had always been her favorite, even more than Ruan.During a trip to England, a year before Megan and Ruan’s scheduled wedding, they met on the festive streets of the capital when Osvaldo fell madly in love with

He had left home that late morning intending to fetch Christopher and take him home when he saw Elijah taking the boy. He followed the vehicle, got out, and remained hidden behind a tree for hours.The heat in Phoenix was unbearable, but not even the drops of sweat running down his face were enough to make him give up.He ignored the exhaustion and the idea that he was watching his ex-wife when he could be at work preparing for the future alongside Megan, the woman he truly loved.But his eyes remained fixed on the entrance of the house while millions of things went through his mind.

    When Elijah returned to the principal’s office, Samantha had already left. He walked around the school, making sure everything was fine. He watched Megan’s behavior for a long time from a place close enough to observe her.Not only that, but he couldn’t hide how worried he was about that situation. When the bell rang, signaling the end of class, Elijah was already standing at Christopher’s classroom door to take him home safely.“Isn’t my mom coming?” Christopher looked at him suspiciously and didn’t take a single step until Elijah explained the situation.“She asked me to take you home.”Elijah leaned down, looked into Chris’s eyes, and smiled at him. He had high hopes of strengthening their bond—that way, he could get closer to Chloe.“Are you dating my mom?” Christopher asked.The question came so fast and so directly that Elijah had no time to protect himself. The smile vanished from his lips, and he stood frozen like a statue in front of the boy, not knowing what to say.Few peop

  • Unexpected Marriage: The night that changed my life   Chapter 67

    Elijah stood for a long time in front of the school’s main door, staring at the gleaming iron, knowing Chloe wouldn’t come back to fill the enormous emptiness she had left inside his chest.When she walked out that door, he felt he was losing something he hadn’t even had the chance to win. And the one to blame for it all stood only a few meters away—his younger sister, Samantha.His eyes locked on Samantha, and anger clouded his expression. Elijah had never had a good relationship with her, and things had only worsened after she married Leônidas and tried to convince their father that Leônidas was the perfect man to take over the family business.Elijah turned out to be more capable and earned that position. There hadn’t been a happier moment for him than when he discovered Samantha’s marriage to Leônidas was falling apart. But learning the reason for their breakup shattered him—Samantha had cheated on Leônidas with her former boss.That news destroyed their father’s health. Months la

    “Are you still brooding over the past, dear Chloe?” Samantha curled her lips, mocking Chloe’s words. “How immature of you.”Samantha rolled her eyes and ran her fingers through her hair while Elijah’s gaze fell on Chloe. She had never seen him look so curious and astonished by what he had just heard. He stayed silent for a while, waiting for an explanation that didn’t come for several long seconds.“Are you saying Chloe dated Leônidas?” Elijah’s voice finally broke the silence.“Leônidas and I were going to get married.”“Leônidas would never marry you,” Samantha cut her off quickly. “That was only in your head, Chloe. You were so naïve you didn’t even notice him losing interest in you.”Chloe stared at her in disbelief. Even after all these years, Samantha still used that story to humiliate her.Chloe straightened her posture, exhaled deeply, and decided to end it once and for all.“Leônidas is my past—and apparently yours too,” she said in a monotone voice. “I heard your marriage en
