Andrianne sat on the couch in the living room, staring blankly at the TV screen that had been turned off for hours. She had been restless, unable to find solace in anything around her. All she could think about was Lucas, and the fact that he was sitting in a jail cell, accused of a crime he didn't commit. The thought made her stomach churn, and she felt like she was on the brink of tears.She stood up suddenly and started pacing back and forth in the room, her mind racing with thoughts and ideas of how she could help Lucas. She knew that the evidence against him was strong, but she couldn't just sit around and wait for his fate to be decided. She had to do something.Her pacing was interrupted by the sound of her phone ringing. She picked it up and saw that it was Jackie calling."Hey, Jackie," Andrianne answered, trying to hide the desperation in her voice."Hey, girl. How you holding up?" Jackie asked.Andrianne sighed. "Not good. I can't stop thinking about Lucas. He's in jail, an

Andrianne met with her lawyer, David, in a quiet restaurant in downtown. The walls were decorated with various paintings and the dim lights created a serene atmosphere. They ordered some drinks and food before settling down to business.David listened attentively as Andrianne narrated everything that had happened leading up to Steve's death. She explained how she had walked into the room and found Steve attacking her husband. She described in detail how she had tried to pull Steve off Lucas, but he had turned on her and had started choking her. She recounted how she had grabbed the gun and had fired in self-defense.David nodded as Andrianne spoke. "I see," he said after she had finished. "That is certainly a case of self-defense. However, we need to be careful with the evidence against your husband. If we don't handle this well, he could end up facing charges for the murder of Steve."Andrianne nodded, her face grim. "I know," she said. "That's why I need you to help me. I don't want

The sun slowly peeked through the window as Andrianne woke up to a beautiful morning. She stretched her arms and yawned, feeling content and at peace. As she looked around the room, her eyes fell on a picture of her and Lucas on their wedding day. Her heart swelled with love and pride for her husband, who was soon to be acquitted of all charges.She got out of bed, feeling a sense of purpose and determination. She walked over to the window and pulled back the curtains, letting the warm morning sun filter in. The birds outside were singing a beautiful melody that filled the air. Andrianne took a deep breath, inhaling the fresh morning air, and smiled to herself. Today was going to be a good day.As she made her way to the kitchen to make breakfast, her phone rang. It was Lucas. He sounded ecstatic, telling her that his lawyer had just called him with good news. The evidence they had been waiting for had finally come in, and it proved his innocence beyond a doubt. He was going to be acq

As the morning light broke through the curtains, Andrianne woke up to a realization that it was Lucas' birthday. She jumped out of bed and went straight to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for him. She whipped up his favorite breakfast, pancakes with crispy bacon and eggs, a cup of coffee, and a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice.She lit up candles on the pancakes and sang the birthday song as she made her way to their bedroom. She placed the tray on the bed, and Lucas woke up to the aroma of the delicious breakfast and Andrianne's beautiful voice."Happy birthday, my love," Andrianne said, planting a soft kiss on his cheek.Lucas was taken aback by the surprise and smiled at her. "Thank you, baby. This is so sweet of you."They enjoyed their breakfast in bed, savoring every bite and talking about their plans for the day. Lucas mentioned he had to go to work but promised to make it up to her in the evening."I have a surprise for you tonight, my love," Andrianne said, her eyes sp

CH 78.Andrianne sat nervously on the edge of the bed, dressed in a stunning blue dress that hugged her curves perfectly. Her hair was styled into loose waves that cascaded down her shoulders and back, and she wore simple diamond stud earrings that sparkled in the dim light of the bedroom.She checked her phone once again, feeling a pang of anxiety as she saw that Lucas had still not returned her calls. She had planned the perfect birthday surprise for him, but now she couldn't even get a hold of him to let him know where to meet her.As she waited, her mind began to wander and she couldn't help but think about the worst-case scenarios. Had something happened to him on his way home? Was he okay? She couldn't shake off the feeling of unease that settled in the pit of her stomach.She stood up and walked to the window, gazing out into the dark night sky. The moon was full, casting a soft glow over the gardens and the swimming pool. She longed for Lucas to be there with her, to share in
