The next day, Ryan's mood is all switched up like last night never happened. I'm done trying to keep up with his mood swings, the man is basically crying for help and the earlier his parents do something about it before it's too late, that's if they care about their son at all, which obviously they don't.

โ€œWe are going shopping.โ€ Ryan announce at the breakfast.

โ€œWhat for?โ€ I ask him because we are not the cute, casual couple that just wakes up to go shopping.

Ryan looks at me calculating. โ€œDon't tell me you forgot.โ€ He says seriously.

โ€œForget what?โ€ I ask him not to wait a second to even think it over.

โ€œThe company's Galla party is this Friday.โ€ Ryan tells me like I have committed a sin for forgetting.

โ€œOh.โ€ Is all I say at first. โ€œI don't need to go shopping, I have dresses in the house that I can wear.โ€ I tell him not really into the idea of going anywhere with him.

โ€œThe media have all eyes on us, they might not show it but they are always hiding and watching us and we have t

    The bidding for the event starts and the families of aristocrat begin to bid ridiculous amount of funds in aguise that it will be used for charity but each one of us in this room knows what it really is for and that'sjust another way to discreetly flaunt who's pocket is bigger than the other on ridiculous set of products.Once the bidding is over, Ryan looks the most happy at the happy. Most of his bruises are mostly gone onthe outside, only that I know the bruise on his ego is still very much intact.I sit there and watch them all converse and let out fake laughter's, I don't indulge any conversation, Ikeep it as short as I possibly can or I ignore it altogether.Ryan goes on to do lots of things that prick at my chest and spike my irritation up a notch but I ignore itand fix on a small lazy smile to humour him since that's what we are here for.He goes on to whisper so close to my ear that his lips was almost kissing them and then he goes ahead tokiss each of my fingers and wr

    โ€œWhat the fuck did you just say?โ€ I ask her yelling in return.โ€œHow dare you push me you fucking whore.โ€ Scarlett shrieks at the tiny spill of my drink on my dresswhich wouldn't have happened if she had just left me the fuck alone when I was being nice.Scarlett grabs my hair in seconds, since she was hell bent on being nasty and was trying so hard to get inmy face, I down my entire glass of drink onto her head.Scarlett shrieks in sheer horror as she lands a slap to my face, I don't wait a second later to return thefavor in full as when I start, I do not stop. I take out all the anger with me. The violent urge to punch myfrustration out on someone finally comes to life as I push a screaming Scarlett to the ground, climb ontop of her and land slap after slap upon her face.A large hand tries to get me off of her but I fight the hand trying to get me off her. My vision is only able tosee red.โ€œAna, Ana, let go of her.โ€ I distinctly hear Ryan's voice yell as the screaming of w

    โ€œLet's go home.โ€ Ryan orders when Isabella is done with her rant, I think.โ€œGo home?โ€ Isabella asks in disbelieve. โ€œYou are not going to reate a situation and then run home. Wehave control damage to atleast do.โ€ Isabella says and I cannot believe her right now.โ€œWe are going back to the party. Anastasia atleast I hope you make makes yourself look presentable.โ€Isabella says glaring hard at my hair before walking away, Bianca does the same too before walking away.I'm left with just Ryan and we both settle into silence. I know he doesn't deserve my apology and Scarlettdeserved every slap I painted her face with but I feel guilty staring at him look so lost when I have seenhow desperately hard he tries to impress his parents, especially since he's quiet and not screaming myhead off. I better take the opportunity to take precaution.โ€œI'm sorry.โ€ I tell Ryan who spares me just a side glance before hissing through his teeth.โ€œI'll be waiting for you out here.โ€ Is all he says as h

The beeping monitor in the room forces the doctors into the room as the crowd me and suffocate me. It makes me panic even more. โ€˜whatโ€™s happening?โ€™ I think to myself trying hard to remember what happened. I try to trace my memory back in the midst of all the silence, last I remember I was rushing to work after a late night with Ana but then that's all I remember. โ€œHe's going into shock.โ€ I distinctly hear one of the doctors yell and after a long while I hear one of the doctors sigh. โ€œHe's stable now, get his parents, he'll be awake any moment from now.โ€ The doctor says and I try to force myself to tell him I'm already awake but to no avail. The doctors go in and out and I do not know how long I lay there for being unable to move, peel my eyes open or even speak. The doctors return to the room and I hear them get busy around.

    I shake my head in denial. Ana would never do something like that. She loves me, she must have wantedto see me so bad.โ€œMaxwell hun, calm down please.โ€ Scarlett says in panic beside me. โ€œAna, Ana she has changed so much,she told the media that you and her have nothing together.โ€ Scarlett tells me pulling out her phone to showme something.There the love of my life is on Tv standing beside Ryan as they both smile lovingly at each other.โ€œI'm so sorry son.โ€ My father tells me, his hand on my shoulders.I refuse to believe them at any cost, I must speak to Ana myself. I force myself to say again.โ€œCall Ana.โ€ I croak again weakly pretty sure that the veins in my face and neck were protruding with howmuch effort it took me to speak.โ€œAna's no picking up, actually the her husband's family has this celebratory dinner to congratulate themfor coming back together so Ana might not be able to return my calls until after.โ€ Bianca tells me sadlyand I wish I could throw something at the wall

    โ€œI'm so sorry Anastasia.โ€ I hear Maxwell whisper, still not looking at me but I can see the glistening oftears in his eyes. โ€œYou might never forgive me but I'm so sorry Ana, I should have known you wouldn'thave done something like that, I should have trusted you.โ€ Maxwell says and I wanted nothing more thanto be in his arms in these times.โ€œNo, I lied, you were in pain and you were being manipulated.โ€ I say, I was hurt and I wasn't about to healanytime soon but Maxwell was as much as a victim in this, I have no idea how he must have felt all thetime he spent thinking the woman he loved killed his child.1โ€œThank you so much Ana, he's the greatest gift and redemption.โ€ Maxwell says sniffling so hard.I hold my hand out towards him. โ€œCome here.โ€ I whisper, my own eyes glistening with tears.Maxwell slowly walks towards me like he was carrying the whole world on his shoulders.

    โ€œOh God,โ€ I mutter to myself when I suddenly feel a hard push on my abdomen.โ€œYou have got to be kidding me.โ€ I whisper to myself when I feel water underneath my thighs.What was happening? Panic suddenly filled my every pore. I felt more fear than I did the overwhelmingpain in my very gut.I needed help and fast, the baby was coming. I groan out loud and try to push myself up when another bultof pain decided to rack through my body.โ€œAna? Ana!!โ€ I hear screams of my name coming from outside of the house, my already pulsing heartnearly stopped the moment I recognized who the voice belonged to.โ€œMaxwell.โ€ I whisper to myself, too weak to speak any louder.โ€œAna.โ€ Loud footsteps march past the open wide doors and a disheveled looking Maxwell stands directlyin front of me.Confusion takes over his features first and then shock as his eyes access the situation and mess in theroom and then fear as he watches me bleeding out on the floor.โ€œAna?โ€ He calls running towards me. โ€œWhat happen

I want to be certain nothing holdsus together anymore.โ€œJersey I'm going out.โ€ I tell her, getting my keys.โ€œWhere are you going?โ€ Jersey asks knowing the store was closed for a long while.โ€œTo Ryan's, I'm going to get a divorce.โ€ I tell Jersey determined as I step out of the

    "That's good," I mutter tiredly. Seeing everything fall apart was all I wanted for so long, but now that it's actually happening, I find myself less interested than I expected.Jersey, standing across from me, studies my face carefully. "I think a warrant should be going out for both your mother and stepfather any moment now," she says quietly, her voice carrying a seriousness that matches the situation. "This is big, Ana. Are you okay?"I shrug, unsure how to answer. The truth is, I don't know what Iโ€™m feeling anymore. "Yeah, I guess," I say after a moment, trying to convince myself as much as her.Jersey doesn't seem to buy it. She watches me with concern, her brow furrowed. โ€œYou sure? Itโ€™s okay if youโ€™re not, you know. This is... itโ€™s a lot.โ€"Yeah," I repeat, softer this time. โ€œIโ€™m fine.โ€Thereโ€™s a pause, thick and uncomfortable. Jersey looks like she wants to say something more, but instead, she rubs the back of her neck awkwardly. "I'm going to bed," she announces, and I know sh

    โ€œI would love to come along with you Ana, I don't think I've told you this before but I love to explore, I'vealways wanted to leave the country, relocate somewhere else, besides it's not like I have anything backhere or a family I'll miss. My job is the only thing I have and my job lies with you.โ€ Jersey says chucklingand I let out a sad chuckles of my own.โ€œBut what about the business?โ€ Jersey asks and I shrug in answer.โ€œI have no idea but each step at a time, if I do decide to leave, we'll figure it out, together.โ€ I say holdingJersey's hand closely to mine. I cannot possibly explain the relieve and joy that came at her answer, I feltwarm all over. I just needed Beatrice to also agree to come with me, I was not sure I was comfortable withleaving her behind with Ryan. She had motherly affection for Ryan so I would respect whatever decisionshe would make.Another thought immediately crosses my mind and I turn to Jersey with a mischievous smile on my face.โ€œYou know, I was also

    Another thought immediately crosses my mind, and I canโ€™t help the mischievous smile that spreads across my face. Jersey notices, raising an eyebrow slightly as I turn toward her. "You know," I begin, "I've been thinking." My voice has a playful lilt to it, though what Iโ€™m about to say is anything but a joke. "Youโ€™re really good at what you do in the jewelry business. Like, really good. Youโ€™ve been doing this longer than I have, and you know more about the inner workings than I ever could."Jersey's expression remains calm, though I can tell sheโ€™s wondering where this conversation is heading. She nods, a quiet acknowledgment of the compliment, but itโ€™s clear sheโ€™s holding back a response, waiting for me to get to the point."You've taken care of the store long before I ever set foot in it," I continue, "and on top of that, youโ€™ve always been the one looking out for everyone. You care so much about this place and the people in it." I pause, letting the words settle for a moment. โ€œWith
