Tears trickled down my face as I sat on the narrow cot in the holding cell, staring up at the cold, gray ceiling. How had my life unraveled so quickly?One moment I was running what I thought was a simple errand for my mother-in-law, Veronica Fury, and the next, I was being accused of embezzlement.The memory of that officer snapping handcuffs around my wrists still burned into my mind, each flashback filling me with humiliation and anger.I hugged my knees to my chest, trying to hold back the tears, but the shame and disbelief were too much.Taylor, my own husband, had allowed this to happen. He hadn’t just doubted me; he’d acted as if I was nothing more than a criminal to him.And Veronica… I had no doubt she’d orchestrated the entire thing. Yet here I was, locked up, my life crumbling around me.A hollow ache settled in my chest. How could Taylor, the man who was supposed to know me better than anyone, turn against me so easily?How could he believe his mother’s word over mine? Ver

The room fell into complete silence. It was so still I could almost hear each heartbeat, and every pair of eyes fixed on me. But I only cared about Taylor’s reaction. His jaw clenched, his nostrils flaring as he stared at me, searching for any sign that I might be lying.“Yes,” I whispered, my voice trembling as I looked straight into his eyes. “It’s true. I found out yesterday. That’s why I called you so many times. I wanted to tell you the news, but you didn’t pick up. And when I texted, I said it was something important. That’s what I wanted to share with you.”My heart pounded as I waited, hoping, praying that he’d believe me. His gaze softened, just a fraction, as he scanned my face, and I dared to hope. Maybe, just maybe, he’d see the truth in my eyes.But before he could respond, Veronica’s voice cut through the room, dripping with venom. “You can’t actually be falling for this, Taylor. After everything this woman’s done, do you really think you can believe a word out of her m

“That’s her, isn’t it?”The voice was loud enough to pierce through the haze in Nicole's mind, which stirred her awake. The sterile white ceiling above seemed to spin, and her nostrils were filled with the faint scent of disinfectant. Slowly, her surroundings came into focus and the harsh whispers of nurses standing by the door filtered in."The so-called Nicole Fury. Can you believe it? After all that drama in the news, she shows up here looking like that.""You mean after being thrown out by her husband? What a disgrace."The words were sharp, digging into Nicole like daggers. Her throat was dry, and a dull ache spread across her body, but nothing compared to the sting of their mockery. "We heard she'd been stealing from her husband, diverting funds to secret accounts..." The dark-skinned nurse said."What a shame!" The second nurse added. "I believe that was why she was arrested. Yet, the kind husband still bailed her."Nicole clenched her fists weakly, willing herself to stay c

The morning sunlight spilled into the room, warming Nicole’s face as she sat quietly, her fingers brushing the bandage around her wrist. A soft knock interrupted her thoughts. The doctor, dressed in her crisp white coat and with an air of gentle authority, walked in, holding a clipboard.“You’re being discharged today, Mrs. Fury,” the doctor said, her tone as professional as ever.Nicole straightened, nodding. “Thank you, Doctor.”The doctor hesitated briefly before continuing. “Since no one came to sign your discharge papers, you’ll need to take care of it yourself. Head to the billing counter when you’re ready.”The words hit Nicole like a slap, a reminder of how alone she had become. “Of course,” she murmured, masking the pain with a tight smile.She gathered her few belongings and headed to the front counter of the hospital. The clicking of keyboards and murmurs of conversations filled the air. When it was her turn, she stepped forward, her chest tightening."Name?" the cashier

Nicole stared at the elderly woman, her confusion deepening with every passing second. “Excuse me, ma’am,” she said cautiously. “Are you sure you have the right person? Have you… lost your daughter?”But the woman wasn’t listening. Her trembling hands wandered over Nicole’s face and shoulders, as if trying to confirm she was real. Tears streamed down her wrinkled cheeks, her voice shaky but filled with gratitude. “Thank God,” she whispered, her hands clasping tightly around Nicole’s. “Thank God I’ve found you. My daughter. My precious daughter!”Nicole's mouth opened, but no words came out. Too stunned, too baffled by what was happening."Ma'am…," she finally managed, her tone soft but urgent, "I think you've mistaken me for someone else. I'm not—""Shhh!" The woman interrupted her with a finger over Nicole's lips. "Don't say anything, my dear. You've been through so much. I can see it in your eyes."Nicole let out a sigh and slowly turned to the taxi driver now visibly irritated.
