Ivy opened her eyes unhurriedly and discovered she was in her bedroom. She sat up, rubbing her eyes. She scanned her room again so that she could be sure she wasn't dreaming. The events from the previous night flickered across her eyes. She remembered everything. "Oops! That was a narrow escape," She whispered, pouring herself a glass of water and taking a sip. Flashback to the previous night'As soon as Mirabel pushed her inside the room, two able-bodied men that had already been drugged with aphrodisiac bundled Ivy up and threw her on the bed. Her heart skipped. Although the aphrodisiac effect was getting stronger she was not giving up. With the remaining strength she could gather, she snatched the bottle on the shelf beside the bed and hit one of the men's heads with it. Before the latter could react, he pushed the one who was holding his head against him.She leaped from the bed and hurried towards the door. Luckily, the door wasn't locked. However, she couldn't rejoice for so

As soon as she stepped into the living room, she saw the employees packing her luggage out of her room. "What are you doing? Why are you touching my stuff?" She asked, rushing to them. She snatched one of her bags from them.They didn't answer her, instead, they continued with what they were doing. She got exasperated. "Can't you hear me? Why the hell are you taking my things out?" "They are taking your stuff out because I ordered them to do that," Ivy answered. Mirabel turned toward the direction of the voice and she saw Ivy, standing by the entrance of her room with her legs crossed.She scoffed and shook her head. "Why would you do that?" "It's simple. Your game is over which means your time here is automatically up," Ivy responded nonchalantly. "What!" "Yeah! Don't worry. I have saved you the stress of packing your luggage out the way you packed it in. The workers are already helping you with it," Ivy revealed a jesting smile. "You are biting more than you can

As soon as Mirabel opened the door, Dillon tucked his head in. She got scared and stumbled onto the floor. "Why do you act like you just saw a ghost?" Dillon's mother, who hadn't seen him questioned, stood up.Her mouth widened when she saw Dillon, standing by the entrance. "Wow! As predicted. I knew you were together in her dirty games. But how could you, mum? Sometimes, you make me doubt if you are really my mother because no mother would want her son to get entangled with a witch like Mirabel," Dillon accused bitterly. He looked like his only trust was broken. Despite knowing the truth, he still shrugs the thought off because he didn't want to accept that his mother was in cohort with Mirabel. "My son," Dillon's mother mumbled, perplexed. She wasn't expecting him to show up without prior notice. He would always put a call across to inform her he will be visiting but things changed today. "Why would you try to ruin my wife because of Mirabel? How many times do you want

A few Days Later.Ivy held Dillon's hands and was glancing at him unblinkingly. She was on a movie set when she received a call that her husband had been admitted to a hospital. However, something seemed fishy because the hospital refused to tell her what happened to him that got him to the hospital.And she couldn't think much because Dillon never informed her before going to his mother's house.It has been four days since she had been staying in the hospital with him. Although the doctor told her he was out of danger, he hadn't opened his eyes.Truthfully, she was scared. She had thought of many possibilities of Dillon never opening his eyes.She was jerked out of her thoughts when she felt some motions. She blinked her eyes twice and saw Dillon awake and moving his eyes around the hospital. "Dillon! You are finally awake," She let out happily. She quickly stood up and helped him up. Afterward, she poured a glass of water and handed it over to him.Dillon received it and emptied t

"I will pounce on you and crush you to death if you finish that despicable statement," Jessica, Dillon's mother, threatened, walking fiercely to the roadside.For some unknown reason, Ivy's heart skipped when she saw her.Daniel didn't show a sign of fear, he tucked his hands in his pocket, turned, and beamed sarcastically. "Ivy doesn't need to say anything. I am sure you have a hand in whatever that might have happened to him,"Jessica scanned him from head to toe and retracted her gaze, uninterested. "You heard what my son said. He doesn't want you and so I want you to pack the dirt you called clothes out of his house,"Ivy scoffed sadly. She bit her lower lips and defensively stood in front of Jessica. "My Dillon will never ask me to vacate our matrimonial home," "Ivy!" Jessica called, widening her eyes and trembling because of the anger that was igniting within her. "Until then, enjoy while it lasts because your game ends when Dillon gets better and I will never
