Chapter 40 : A revelation
EmilyI don't know why I'm feeling so different since this morning, especially when I look at Kane and his actions. As much as I feel a kind of happiness with his tender and gentle gestures toward me, I feel a kind of anxiety as if I'm gonna be hollow again.We're about to leave right now for Texas City. I can't believe I'm going back to my city after three long years. It has so many bittersweet memories. Some I wanted to forget and some I have been cherishing ever since. Kane was too late to come back last night which is why I couldn't wish him. It's his 32nd birthday. I remember his first birthday with me. I did so many things to celebrate it. And I had thought I'll be making it more special in the upcoming years. It didn't happen. But I hope my little gift will be able to make it special for him. I take out the small jar of notes I wrote every month for him. Throughout the last four years, I didn't forget what I had planned for him. I had bought this jar after his 28th birthday a

Chapter 41 : What am I?
KaneI'm too stunned to do anything or even look at Emily. She must be too devastated, I know that and there's no way I can change whatever has happened. "Happy Birthday, husband," Monica says on the mic as I reach there, glaring at her. Among all the applause, I find her playfully narrowing her eyebrows. "What the hell is that?" I shrug. "Didn't I tell you not to—""Relax," she holds my arm and turns me to the crowd with a big smile when I don't feel like smiling at all. "I can understand you are being an emotional fool, Kane. But you know what you have done. You can't change it"I close my eyes shut. "But I told you not to do so. I was about to part ways with her. Why did you still—," I blurt out and halt, realising she's not gonna listen to me anyway. I brought this myself and I have to bear it. "You have done whatever you wanted to. Now keep quiet and don't do any more nonsense tonight. Got it?" I sneer at Monica.As I finally gather the courage to look in Emily's direction,

Chapter 42 : Confession
A month agoKane"What do you want me to do?" Monica asked on the call as I smirked."You know Emily could never stand you. I just want to watch her getting hurt when she would know I got over her and married you," I said."You— you wanna marry me?" She exclaimed."No!" I seethed. "I don't give a fuck to marriage and love. And don't take me seriously on that. You'll act like my wife in front of Emily. That's it. After a month, when I toss her away, I'll watch her suffer the pain of heartbreak. Am I clear?" I shrugged."Why would she trust that?""A fake photo shoot doesn't take much time," I cracked up. "Got it," Monica said. "Will execute this straight after thirty days"——————I close my eyes shut. Who knew I'll be the one to suffer the most? Who knew it'll hurt to watch her getting hurt? Who knew my own strategies would backfire? "Remembered?" She shrugs. My blood started to blotch as I grab her arms tightly. "Yes. I do remember. But I had changed my mind. I told you I don't w

Chapter 43 : She wants to live
EmilyWhen I opened my eyes I didn't expect to be in that place. I roll my eyes nervously around the room. For as long as I can remember I was near the Cascade last night. It was raining heavily. My heart was heavy. I don't remember how long I cried but gradually my brain started functioning. I recall every single thing from last night.I remember how all those disgust-filled eyes landed on me, how my entire existence felt nasty and sinful, and how I have literally spent thirty days with a married man. I cover my face with both hands and breathe heavily. I can't take this anymore. I just can't. Now, it doesn't hurt because the man I love the most is not mine. It hurts because the only thing I had as my own isn't there anymore. My dignity is tainted. And it hurts more than anything. Whatever happened to me throughout my life, I never felt like this before. But today, I have stooped so low in my own eyes. Gathering the sheets tightly against my chest, I close my eyes and strive to pr

Chapter 44 : Nothing makes sense
KaneEthan said Emily asked him to hire a cab. She didn't tell him where she would exactly go. I believe she'll go back to Austin. After all, she has her dream job there, her family in her agency.

I hope it'll give her some relief. Ethan insisted that I should meet her when she was leaving but I didn't go. I didn't think I'd be able to control myself. What if my mind changes and the bastard in me wakes up again and it tries to force her to stay back again. "She has left, Kane," Ethan says as I take a long stroke of smoke from the cigarette. I try to smile painfully, rubbing my eyes repeatedly. "Are you okay?" Ethan grabs my shoulder."I'm relieved," I tell him with a painful smile. "I'm proud of you, Young Master," Ethan says with a big smile of pride.*It's already been a week since Emily left for

Chapter 46 : Her side of the story - II
I brace myself before reading it. "As you sow, so you reap. That's what dad used to say. But it has never been the same in my life. I got the worst in return for a single NO. I can't believe I'm a woman of this era where we're still not allowed to say NO to anything. We don't have a right to make decisions and any random person thinks that they can make decisions in our lives as if we're obliged to do whatever they want.I realised this fact in the worst way. I never thought turning down a silly offer would bring a nightmare to my life. Damien Porter is a demon with the skin of a human. That's what I found out the day when I was taken by his men and brought to him in darkness. I still remember that horrible day when I was surrounded by darkness in that empty room. I kept screaming and crying to break the shackles when he came in front of me. I still remember his creepy face when he walked toward me with his horrible smirk. I knew it was not going to end well. But I wasn't the kind

She loves to be around them and helps them to find a direction in life"Auntie Rachel's voice echoes in my head as I drive faster in that direction with a bunch of hopes. I look at the sky.

Chapter 48 : To US
Kane The entire night was spent in anxiety. I had been staying in a small guest house, just a kilometre away from that foster home. In the evening, Ethan came and told me that he had handed the wedding dress to Rylie Mae. She looked happy. But she said Emily hadn't talked to anyone after I left. She didn't even come out of her room. I know it was going too fast and I believe she'll know what she wants. I wasn't lying when I told her I would leave everything behind and make her world mine. I'll definitely do it for her. I just wanna see her happy and satisfied. When I met her yesterday, I saw that urge in her eyes. She was so hesitant when she asked me to leave as if she was unable to convince herself. If I had found a bit of resistance in her eyes, I would surely walk away. We're gathered in the small church situated a few yards away from the foster home. And it's already the moment. Ethan comes rushing when we all were waiting outside the church. "Kane!" He huffs. "Coming from t

Epilogue— I
Emily"The court is adjourned"My attorneys cheer up as the judge exists and Ivanna hugs me from behind. "Congratulations!" She exclaims in joy and I feel nothing for a couple of seconds when Damien is taken by the cops in front of me.As he gazes at me with his hatred and disgust-filled eyes, I glared back at him, hot tears streaming down my cheeks as I recall the dead face of my dad, that cruel hour of my life and years filled with pain and darkness. "Congratulations, Mrs Gabriel," my head attorney, Lana, hugs me. "I hope you feel better"I move my gaze from that view of my ugly past and thank my team for being so patient for so long and finally turn back to the man standing behind me, who has always been there ever since we reunited. Kane is smiling at me. His eyes are moist. I don't think I would ever be able to do it if he wasn't there to hold me each time I fell weak on this journey. We don't share words, we just look into each other's eyes. Five years. It took five years to
