As she was contemplating her escape plan, Rita visited her parents with Edward and Lilith. They hadn't heard from Rita in a long time. Over the past five years, they had aged significantly due to missing their daughter excessively. Rita looked at her parents' heads full of white hair, feeling guilty, but she had no other choice.Sitting in the cozy living room of her childhood home, the air was thick with a mix of tension and nostalgia. Rita's father, John, cleared his throat, breaking the uneasy silence. "Rita," he began, his voice trembling with a blend of joy and sorrow, "we've missed you so much."Rita's mother, Margaret, wiped away a tear as she gazed at her daughter. "It's been far too long, sweetheart," she said, her voice cracking. "We were worried sick about you."Rita's heart ached as she looked into their eyes, seeing the years of pain she had caused. "I know, Mom, Dad," she replied, her own voice quivering. "I never meant to hurt you, but I had to go. I had to protect you.

In the middle of the night, after Rita and Jaden came back from the hospital.Rita was awakened by Jaden urgently, who urged her to leave immediately as there were a*sa*sins nearby.Rita's heart raced as she absorbed Jaden's words. "a*sa*sins?" she whispered, her voice quivering with fear. "How did they find us?"Jaden's eyes held a mix of concern and fear"I don't know, Rita, but we can't stay here. We need to move quickly if we want to stay ahead of them."Rita nodded, her mind racing to process the urgency of the situation. "Where do we go?"Jaden's jaw tightened as he thought for a moment. "There's a safehouse I know of, not far from here. It's hidden deep in the forest, off the grid. We should be safe there.""But what about Edward and Lilith?" Rita's voice cracked as she thought of the children.Jaden reached out and placed a rea*suring hand on her shoulder. "I've already taken care of that. They're in good hands, Rita. The hospital director owes me a favor. He'll keep them hidden

Noah took Rita to his downtown villa and hired a family doctor to treat Jaden's gunshot wound. Noah then reminded Rita that it was time to fulfill her promise.Rita looked at Noah and saw that his eyes were no longer gentle, but hostile.Noah's voice grew stern as he gazed at Rita, his once-kind eyes now tinged with an unsettling intensity. "Rita," he began, his words cutting through the air, "we've come too far to turn back now. You made a promise, and it's time to honor it."Rita's heart raced as the weight of the situation bore down on her. She had never seen Noah like this before, his demeanor a stark departure from the man who had rescued her just days ago. "Noah, please," she implored, her voice quivering, "Jaden needs time to heal. We can't rush this."Noah's expression remained unyielding. "Time is a luxury we don't have," he retorted, his tone cold and unrelenting. "You know what's at stake, Rita. I can't afford to be patient any longer."Rita's mind raced, searching for a wa

Rita didn't want to be entangled with Jaden anymore, and she was determined to leave. Despite his gunshot wound, Jaden blocked Rita's way. Rita looked at the shirt stained red with fresh blood on Jaden, feeling somewhat distressed.Just then, Jaden fainted leaving Rita in a helpless state. Immediately she took Jaden to the hospital.At the hospital, the urgency of the situation weighed heavily on Rita as she paced the sterile hallway outside the emergency room. Her heart raced with a mix of worry and guilt. After all, regardless of their complicated history, she couldn't bear to see Jaden in such a vulnerable state.An exhausted-looking nurse finally emerged from the ER, catching Rita's attention. "Are you here for the gunshot wound patient?" the nurse asked, her voice laced with concern.Rita nodded, her voice barely above a whisper. "Yes, that's... that's Jaden. How is he?"The nurse offered a rea*suring smile. "He's stable for now. We managed to stabilize him and remove the bullet.

Weeks later, Rita visited a design studio for a collaboration discussion. If everything went well, she could wrap up her trip and return home with her children within a week. However, at the entrance of the studio, she saw Jaden.Her heart skipped a beat as she recognized the tall figure standing by the door, a hint of surprise and uncertainty etched across his face.Jaden handed Rita the divorce certificate between him and Percy, his face filled with anticipation. Rita found it a bit hard to believe, but she feigned composure. She returned the divorce certificate to Jaden, telling him not to disrupt her life anymore, as it had nothing to do with her.Rita's eyes narrowed slightly, her voice carrying a note of caution. "Jaden, I appreciate your effort to share this with me, but I fail to see how your divorce concerns me."Jaden sighed, his shoulders slumping slightly. "I thought you should know, considering how close we used to be. Percy and I decided to part ways, and it's been a dif
