Sinjin knew Eds hadn't come home before he even stepped through the door, and a sinking feeling settled in his stomach. The house was eerily quiet for a Friday, as the boys were spending the weekend with Kyle."Welcome home, sir," Mrs. Bale greeted him in the hallway, stepping forward to take his coat and laptop bag."Is my wife home?" Sinjin asked, a trace of hope in his voice."She's not back yet, sir," Mrs. Bale replied politely. "You mentioned I shouldn't prepare dinner tonight. Should I still go ahead with that?"Sinjin sighed, shaking his head. "No, that hasn't changed. I'll just give her a call and check on her. She's probably still at work." He answered."Very well, sir." Mrs. Bale nodded and left him.Sinjin pulled his phone from his jacket pocket, unlocked it, and dialed Eds' number, holding the phone to his ear as it began to ring. Eds usually answered on the first ring, but this time, the call went to voicemail. With a deep sigh, he tried Sande's number. She answered after

Lex was stunned when he opened the door to greet Sande, only for her to collapse into his arms, sobbing as if her world had fallen apart. Without hesitation, he wrapped his arms around her, gently stroking her hair while trying to make sense of what could have happened to shatter his fierce, strong girlfriend like this. Her tears quickly soaked through his shirt, but he carefully nudged the door shut with his foot, then scooped her up in his arms and carried her to the sofa. There, he settled her in his lap, holding her close as she continued to cry. She had mentioned visiting Adella earlier, but now he knew something must have gone terribly wrong to break her down this way. Sande was the toughest person he knew, and whatever had happened with Adella must have been devastating."Let it all out, sweetheart," Lex murmured softly, rubbing her back in soothing circles. "I'm here for you."After five minutes, Sande's sobs finally began to subside. She wiped her tears and sniffled, her ch

Eds noticed that Sande repeatedly declined the incoming call on her phone without even checking who it was. Though Eds had a hunch about the caller's identity, she didn't want to pry. When the phone rang yet again, Sande finally answered, pressing it to her ear."What part of 'I don't want to talk to you ever again' didn't you understand, Adella?" Sande snapped, her voice sharp with anger. "I have nothing more to say to you."Eds watched as Sande's irritation quickly escalated into fury, culminating in her slamming her fist against the table."Don't you dare go near Lex!" Sande commanded fiercely. "No!"Eds, well-acquainted with Sande's temper, had seen grown men shrink back in fear from her wrath. She imagined that Adella was fortunate not to be standing in front of Sande right now—she might have taken a swing at her."I'll file a restraining order if I have to," Sande threatened in a low, dangerous tone. "Stay away from me!" With that, she abruptly hung up, turned off her phone, and

"Ma'am, there's someone here to see you," Fred announced as he approached Camilla, who was meticulously trimming the stems of the roses laid out on the table before her. The flowers had been freshly picked by the maids from the garden, and Camilla was preparing to arrange them in a vase."I'm not expecting any visitors, Fred," she replied without lifting her gaze from her work. "Who is it?""Miss Mallucia Goldstein, Ma'am," Fred answered.Camilla's head jerked up in surprise, and the pruning scissors slipped from her hand. "Mallucia?" she asked, incredulously."Yes, Ma'am.""Let her in," Camilla instructed.With a bow, Fred turned and exited the room. Camilla returned to her task, though her mind briefly wandered, wondering why Mallucia had come. It had been months since they'd last seen each other, though Camilla remained in touch with Mallucia's mother."Good afternoon, Aunt," Mallucia greeted as Fred ushered her in."Afternoon," Camilla responded, gesturing to the sofa. "Sit."Mall

Sinjin rushed into Aria Falls Memorial Hospital, ignoring the reception desk as he made his way straight to the emergency ward. He froze when he saw his father and Sande waiting anxiously in the room. Moments earlier, Sinjin had just touched down in Elderstone when Rhett appeared with news that Edselyn had been hospitalized. Without hesitation, Sinjin had snatched the car keys from Rhett, jumped into the vehicle, and sped off without waiting to hear more details.“How is she?” Sinjin asked urgently as he approached them. “Where is she?”“They’re running some tests to figure out what’s wrong,” Sande answered.“What happened? She seemed fine when I left,” Sinjin pressed.“Well, we had a glass of champagne each, but I think she ate too many macarons and ended up with an upset stomach,” Sande explained. “She went to the restroom, and when I couldn’t find her, I went looking and discovered her unconscious in the guest bathroom.”“Unconscious?” Sinjin shot a glance at his father. “No one f
