She swallowed the entire bottle of pills—nearly twenty in total. Foam bubbled at the corners of her mouth as her consciousness began to blur. The sharp, stabbing pain coursing through her body hit her like a storm, tearing at her senses. Her lips quivered as she muttered faintly, “It hurts… so much…”The unbearable pain dragged on, gnawing at her body like claws. Her vision swirled into a haze as the minutes crawled by, every moment a thread pulling the life from her. Her blood seemed to freeze in her veins, her body burning yet icy cold. She didn’t know what to do. For the first time in her life, she was utterly lost.She sat motionless on the bed, her body growing colder as time slipped away. Outside, the night sky gleamed with stars. The headache that gripped her was unbearable, a pressure she couldn’t put into words. The next time she opened her eyes, she was in a hospital room.When Lucy slowly woke, her throat was parched and her body felt drained, weak beyond measure. She

“No!” Lucy cut her off abruptly. “The way someone expresses love may change, but their eyes never lie.”She leaned back against the pillow, her face pale but resolute. “Mom, I won’t take the fall for her. You can give up on that idea.”“You… you’re just so unreasonable!” Mrs. Chancer snapped, grabbing her bag and storming out in anger.Lucy watched her mother’s retreating figure with a deep sorrow in her eyes. Her mother didn’t hesitate, not even a glance back. She left with such finality that Lucy felt a chill settle in her chest. She was exhausted, but for the first time, her anger wasn’t directed at Sarah.Closing her eyes, she let the bitterness wash over her. Her mother had changed. Her brother had changed. Everyone had changed.“What? A suicide attempt?” Sarah’s eyes widened in disbelief upon hearing the news about Lucy. It was almost impossible to imagine someone as cautious and calculating as Lucy trying to end her life.Melvin spoke with his usual calm demeanor. “She was

“I won’t,” Sarah said firmly, her tone heavy with authority. “But you should think carefully about the difference between being the mastermind and just an accomplice. This isn’t just about a lighter sentence.”“I’ll talk!” Charlotte finally broke down.“Tell me. I’ll handle the rest myself.”Charlotte closed her eyes, her shoulders trembling. “It was Vivian. It was her!” she confessed.“So, Lucy was the first scapegoat, and you’re the second?” Sarah asked, her suspicions confirmed. Things were clearly far more complicated than they seemed, but with just a few pointed questions, she had her answers.Charlotte nodded slowly. “That’s... how it seems.”---Meanwhile, Steven had been feeling uneasy for days, the reason being Scarlett. Maybe it was because of her sudden boyfriend, or perhaps it was the questions she had asked him—questions he couldn’t answer. He found himself walking into Morning Star Bar, the same bar where he and Scarlett had shared an unusual encounter. Lately, h

"You wouldn’t dare!" His tone was calm but carried an air of authority that couldn't be ignored. Scarlett internally grumbled but obediently withdrew her hand. So bossy! So controlling! She quickly shifted on the couch, trying to put some distance between them. But just as she started to move, Steven grabbed her arm and pulled her back. She stumbled, landing right against his chest. His embrace was warm, and she instinctively looked up to glare at him, only to be caught in his soft, tender gaze. Her cheeks flushed red as she quickly lowered her head. Memories of the previous night flooded her mind—Steven’s relentless teasing that left her begging for mercy. She had only just started to recover, and now she worried… Could he possibly want to—? Her face grew even hotter as her thoughts spiraled. When had she become so… horny? Maybe he was just pulling her closer for a look, nothing more. The more she thought, the more flustered she became. And apparently, Steven noticed her u

The day before the land auction, Sarah met with Charlotte.After their last conversation, Charlotte no longer feared facing Sarah. Now that everything was out in the open, the worst case scenario was simply going to prison.Charlotte ordered an iced Americano, but Sarah stopped her. "Since you're pregnant, maybe stick to water.""Thanks." Charlotte was surprised.She could see Sarah's eyes were clear, free of any lingering resentment. "I misjudged you before.""What do you mean?" Sarah asked, taken aback."I always thought your coldness toward James was just an act. I heard so much about you from Lucy and Mother. I believed you cared deeply for James, that you couldn't have moved on so quickly. Whether your distance was real or fake, I thought he still held a place in your heart. I see now I was wrong." Charlotte gave a self-deprecating smile.Sarah didn't respond to this. She hadn't met Charlotte for small talk. Getting straight to the point, she asked, "Are you and James parti
