I remember earlier today when I decided to share everything with Jane, hoping that by opening up to her, we could find a way to protect ourselves and our family. But a call from Marine interrupted our conversation, reminding me of the constant presence and control Marine has over our lives. And this time she is using Marlene and Liam as bait to manipulate me and keep me under her thumb. Like she did earlier today.I made up to share everything with Jane because I trust her and believe that together we can devise a plan to outsmart Marine and regain our freedom. However, just at that moment, a call from Marine interrupted my thoughts, bringing me back to the harsh reality of our situation.I quickly answered the call, my heart racing with anticipation. "What do you think you are going to do?" Marine sneered. "You think telling Jane everything will solve your problems? You're only fooling yourself if you think she can help you escape from me." I could hear the smugness in Marine's voice

"I haven't done anything to you," I protested, my voice trembling with confusion and fear. "It was you who left me alone with a newborn baby; you abandoned us without a second thought. I never asked for any of this, and I certainly didn't deserve your wrath." The room fell silent, the tension thickening as we both realized that the truth was far more complex than either of us had anticipated."I left you because you were a loser," she retorted, her voice dripping with disdain. "You were poor with that shitty dream of yours to be a doctor and an old mother who hags around. I couldn't bear the thought of being tied down to a life of mediocrity and struggle. It was your fault that I left you in order to pursue a better future for myself.""Then why are you here now when you left me before without any explanation?" I asked, my voice trembling with a mix of anger and confusion."Because you have what you don't have," she replied, her tone softer now. "You're rich; you have someone you love

"Be honest with me, Brandon, because I know you are hiding things from me; I just don't know what."My eyes filled with regret as I reached out to hold Jane's hand. But she slid it away from me before I could make contact. "I am not feeling well," she said, walking away from me. "Jane…," I called but without even listening to my voice, she walked away from me with quick, determined steps. Her body language spoke volumes, revealing her frustration and disappointment. I stood there, my heart sinking, realizing that the trust between us had been shattered. I closed my eyes, sighing in frustration. I need some fresh air to clear my mind and figure out how to repair the damage I have caused. I walked outside and took a deep breath, hoping the cool breeze would bring some clarity. As I wandered aimlessly, I couldn't help but replay the events in my mind, searching for a way to make things right. "Why?" I shouted into the empty night sky, feeling the weight of my mistakes pressing down o

It's been hours, but Brandon hasn't awake yet. I don't know what happened to him or why he suddenly fainted. I'm starting to get really worried. He seemed perfectly fine earlier, and there were no signs of any health issues.After seeing Brandon faint, I immediately called the ambulance, taking Brandon to the nearest hospital. After Brandon's surgery, I don't want to risk his recovery; even a minor seizure could be detrimental."Brandon, why are you doing this to me?" I mumbled, taking his hand in mine. I sat by his bedside, holding his hand in mine.I sighed and tried to push away the overwhelming feeling of uncertainty. The doctors assured me that there was nothing to worry about, but I couldn't help but feel a constant sense of unease. Despite the doctor's reassurances, I couldn't shake off the constant sense of unease that lingered within me. Every small twitch or movement from Brandon made my heart skip a beat, fearing it could be a sign of another health issue."I can't lose you

“You don't know how happy I am that you finally chose me over her.” Marine chimed, clinging her body to Brandon from the back seat of the car. Her voice was filled with relief and a hint of triumph, as if a weight had been lifted off her shoulders. She had been waiting for this moment for so long, hoping that he would see her worth and choose her over me. "Marine," I warned, glaring at her from the rearview mirror. “Stop dreaming and sit quietly, or it might take me long to throw you out of my car,” I warned her harshly, my frustration evident in my voice. I couldn't bear to listen to her gloating any longer. “You can't,” Marine said, angeringly staring at me with defiance in her eyes. "“Try me..." I said back with a smirk, my confidence growing as I held her gaze. "Now, keep quiet, sit still, and don’t test my patience." Marine's face flushed with anger as she clenched her fists, but she reluctantly complied with my command. The tension in the car was palpable, and I couldn't help
