Wrong From the Start Chapter 101: Everything Led Back to That Fear
Tessa wasn't nervous, at least not until she arrived at the estate. Some parts of the area still felt familiar, but some looked new like some areas had been reconstructed. She got out of the car, stared around with her chest racing. ‘ What if this is a waste of time. What if I don't remember anything, or what if…’ Her breath stuttered, as if she were afraid, afraid of what she'd find. Afraid the truth might hurt more than she thinks. Just then, she heard loud giggles, the laughter of kids coming from the playing ground. “ Kids still come here?” She murmured, a tiny smile nudging at her lips. She walked towards the area and it was just like she remembered. She saw multiple children running here and there, laughing and playing and giving no care about the world. It looks beautiful. But then..her face dropped slowly. She only remembered a little part of her moments here; the majority of her moments in this playing ground were gone. “ Excuse me, who are you?” An
Wrong From the Start Chapter 100: A memory
| POLICE STATION | A tall muscular officer rushed towards his department, panting slightly with his face twisted in impatience. “ Sir,” he called for his boss the moment he entered. “ What's it?” “ You're right.” He confirmed, standing by his desk, nodding. “ The Beaumont family is indeed hiding something.” “ Did you find something?” The officer straightened in his chair. “ No, but Nick has been arrested this morning, trying to flee the country.” “ Nick?” “ Yes, Mr. Blake's driver.” “ What?!” “ He was caught along with the criminals we were chasing trying to illegally flee the country.” The officer scoffed, “Interesting. Does anyone know about this?” “ No yet, sir.” “ Okay, make sure the Beaumont does not find out, until we have more concrete evidence that they have something to do with Mr. Hudson's death. For now, Grayson is strongly protecting the family, we can't make any rash moves.” “ Understood sir!” “ Take Nick to the interrogation room, he's our first suspec
Wrong From the Start Chapter 99: Shredded
Tessa’s heart slammed to her stomach, her head snapped back to Ciara. ‘ She brought divorce papers? Since when? Since when has she been planning to kick me out? Her face furrowed in confusion. Grayson stared at the document for a long moment. Then… a quiet snicker escaped him. The corner of his lips curved, not out of anger or disbelief, but in amusement. Slowly, he lifted his eyes to Ciara. "It's quite fascinating..." he murmured, almost thoughtfully. "...that you actually think you get to decide this." Ciara's expression darkened. "I am your mother.” "And?" The single word hit harder than a slap. Tessa looked from Grayson to his mother, the tension felt too thick it was almost suffocating. "You'll sign those papers today." Ciara pointed at the document. "That woman has done enough damage to this family." Grayson lowered his gaze to the divorce papers once more. A small smile tugged at the corner of his lips. Then he looked back at Ciara, and without breaking eye cont
Wrong From the Start Chapter 98: A mother's blindness
Tessa and Grayson stepped outside the police station after Tyler got arrested. The moment they were out, the evening air hit Tessa’s face. It should have felt freeing, but instead, it felt heavy. Every step towards the parking lot felt unreal, as though she'd left a piece of herself inside that police station. The same Tyler she'd trusted for years… The same Tyler she'd defended countless times… The same Tyler she'd loved for twelve years… Was infact this horrible. Spying on her. Lying against his brother. Manipulating everyone and telling lies over and over again with the most innocent face ever. Chills washed over her skin at the thought, her stomach churned that she stopped walking. Grayson noticed immediately and stopped mid-step, he turned to her. "Tess?" She stared blankly at the ground. "I keep replaying everything." Her voice was barely above a whisper. "I called you a monster because of him." She laughed bitterly, though tears were alrea
Wrong From the Start Chapter 97: Tessa's anger
Tyler stared back at Tessa, his chest thudding faster against his rib. The way she was looking at him speechlessly gave him this soothing feeling he felt like he needed. ‘ You're finally coming to your senses. I've thought of it, and I realized there's no way you would willingly love Grayson.’ Tyler said in his mind. ‘ He must have manipulated you, forced you, and now you're pretending to love him because you're scared.’ “ So you make an arrest now based on people's accusations, without evidence.” Grayson turned to the officers, his eyes—cold and sharp immediately unsettled them. “ We'd request that from the victim.” “ I'm not a victim.” She cut the officer short, her breath shaking with her fist clenching so hard. “ It's alright, Tessa, you really do not have to be scared anymore, or pretend." Tyler assured. But Tessa couldn't take any more of it. Her stomach twisted violently in disgust and anger. She gritted her teeth so hard, walked briskly towards him, and befo
Wrong From the Start Chapter 96: Tyler's report
For a moment, nobody spoke. The soft humming of the repair equipment suddenly sounded deafening to Tessa. She looked at the name again. Tyler Beaumont. ‘ Wh.. what is this?’ Her mind went numb for a second. Not knowing what to say, what to feel, what to take this as.“ But..” words died in her throat. ‘ He was spying on me?’ Her heart sank and her knees buckled.But thanks to Grayson who was by her side and quick to catch her.“ Hey, Tess, are you okay?”She shook her head. “ How long? How long has he been spying on me?” The question rolled out of her.“ Umm..” the technician tried to check.“No, never mind, it doesn't even matter.” She mumbled, her heart sinking to her stomach.“ How long doesn't justify..” she looked at Grayson. “ Why would my best friend spy on me? Like I don't get, this is someone I trusted, someone I've been with for more than twelve years and he did this, for how long has he even been doing this?”“ You still don't want me to check?” The technician asked aga

| THE NEXT MORNING— ITALY | The vibration of phone stirred Tessa awake. She moaned as she stretched on the bed, dawn bleeding through the curtains. She fluttered her eyes open slowly. Her body felt stiff from sleeping too close to the edge of the bed, a careful distance maintained between her an

“ You're shaking, Tess. And I haven't even done anything.” Her breath hitched, face reddened with embarrassment. Her brow creased in anger and confusion at how hard her chest was pounding, and why her body was trembling like that. But she cared not about any answer at the point, she just wanted
Wrong From the Start Chapter 6: I do
“ I do.” Tessa didn't recognize her own voice. It sounded distant, mechanical, like it belonged to someone else standing at the altar in her white dress.The church was filled. Cameras flashed. Guests smiled. Applause echoed softly. But she felt nothing but ache in her chest, a pain that refused t
Wrong From the Start Chapter 5: The wedding
The most anticipated day was finally here, yet the morning felt unreal. The room buzzed with stylists, makeup artists, photographers adjusting their lenses, and assistants moving around with bouquets and fabric. White. Everything was white. White curtains, white roses, white dress. Tessa stared
