Arriving at the hidden lake, Andrew parked the car under a large tree. The sound of gurgling water was serene. There was no one around. Just nature and peace."I'll stand guard nearby. Take as much time as you need, Miss." Andrew opened the door for Caroline and let her down.Caroline nodded and walked slowly towards the lake. She sat on a wooden bench overlooking the water. The breeze brushed her face, bringing the calm she needed right now.The fear had not completely gone. Johan's figure was still alive in her mind, like a shadow that refused to go away. Johan's words earlier said that she was unhappy with Ben. However, the situation was just the opposite.'Am I as unhappy as Johan said?' The thought came to Caroline.'Ben loves me. I know that. He gives me space and gives me security. But why does the shadow of the past still entangle me like an invisible chain? Do I still have feelings for Johan deep down?'Tears began to roll down her cheeks. She hated herself for still feeling

Sophia's cell phone rang on the living room table. Victoria's name was displayed on the screen. With a raised eyebrow, Sophia picked up the call."Hello, Aunt Victoria?" greeted Sophia on the phone."Sophia, I just wanted to let you know that Caroline finally divorced Johan."Sophia was silent for a moment. Her eyes widened and her body tensed. If Caroline and Johan were divorced, it meant that Caroline could belong to Ben completely."They're officially separated. Johan lost her."Sophia got up from the sofa. Then walked quickly towards the window while gripping the cell phone tighter. She couldn't let Ben go, the feelings were still there."Why are you saying it like that? This is not good news for me!" Sophia's voice rose."Why not?""If Caroline is free, Ben will get closer to her! You know, he'll always choose her over me!" Sophia patted her forehead and sighed softly."Sophia, your feelings for Ben are none of my business. What matters now is that my son is finally free of that

Johan sat behind the wheel. His gaze was fixed on Benjamin Charles' house. He observed every movement in the yard, hoping to catch a glimpse of Caroline.'Go out, just for a while.His mind was thinking about Caroline. His heart was torn between longing and ulterior motives. Johan leaned forward, making sure the shadow in the window was Caroline. He recognized her silhouette, the slow movement as she closed the curtains. Johan smiled slightly. His gaze did not flicker. He knew sooner or later, his chance would come."She lives comfortably with that man. But not forever."His hand picked up an old photo from the dashboard drawer. A photo of Caroline smiling with him in the past. That smile was now just a memory. Yet, in his mind, it had to come true again. And if it couldn't be obtained with love, then he would seize it by other means. He put the photo back."We're not done yet, Caroline ...."Johan's car drove slowly down the street. He knew the house was heavily guarded. Hidden camer

After the meeting ended and the office was quiet, Ben felt something strange. Like there was a sharp gaze following his every move. He slowed his pace, scanning the surroundings, but there was no one around.Ben stood beside his Aston Martin, hands already clutching the keys. The basement of the parking lot was spacious and quiet. Just rows and rows of luxury cars. No sounds, no footsteps. But Ben knew his instincts were rarely wrong.Suddenly, however, a mysterious figure stood behind a concrete pillar. Ben was on alert. His hand was still clutching the keys. Without wasting time, he immediately got into the car and started the engine. His eyes did not leave the rearview mirror as he watched every corner of the parking lot. The car's engine hummed softly, ready to go at any moment. However, Ben was in no hurry to leave. Then, he took out the licensed pistol he always kept for situations like this.The figure behind the pole was still standing as if waiting for Ben. Neither rashly att
