Chapter 131

EMILY'S POV I held my cheek with a trembling hand, the sting from the slap barely registering. I didn’t feel any pain, how could I, when the ache in my heart was already tearing me apart from the inside out? Her mother was right. Every single word she yelled at me was true. I killed Mara. I took her from the world. Tears fell in thick streams down my face. My shoulders shook as sobs ripped from my throat. I couldn’t even look up. Shame cloaked me like a heavy garment. My breath came in sharp, uneven gasps as the weight of my guilt pressed harder and harder into my chest. I should have been careful. I should have had my hands steady on the wheel, my eyes fixed on the road, my mind clear. But I wasn’t focused. I was distracted, consumed with thoughts of Victoria Hale, her threats, her schemes, my anger and fear boiling into a storm that clouded my judgment.

Chapter 132

EMILY'S POV My eyes flickered open slowly, blinking against the brightness of the fluorescent light above me. My body felt heavy, stiff, and sore in every possible way as if I had been crushed and pieced back together all wrong. The dull pain in my limbs spread deeper into my chest, a constant throb that reminded me I was alive… but barely. Then came the memories. They didn’t creep in gently, they rushed at me like a storm. Mara’s death. The funeral. The illusion, no, the hallucination of her walking away. The moment I got hit. It all hit me again in one wave. I gasped as it settled back into my bones, like reliving it all over. I glanced around the room, slowly taking in my surroundings. I was in a hospital ward, hooked up to machines that beeped softly, measuring every breath

Chapter 133-134

EMILY'S POV The room felt like it was spinning. Dave’s words echoed in my ears again and again, each repetition more painful than the last. You were pregnant. But not anymore. Spontaneous abortion. I sat frozen, unable to speak, unable to breathe. It was as if someone had slammed an iron door on my chest and locked it shut. My vision blurred, not from the hospital lighting but from the flood of tears building up in my eyes. And then, the door flung open. “Why are you so callous? What a perfect way to break a bad news to her,” Olivia’s voice pierced through the tension in the room. She scoffed in disbelief, her face pulled in disgust as she glared at Dave. But I couldn’t focus on either of them properly. My mind was spinning, trying to process what had been said. I turned sharply to Olivia, my voice trembling yet rising in pitch, a mixture of confusion, shock, and pure anguish. “Olivia, what’s Dave talking about? Do you have an idea of what he’s talking about?” My hear

Chapter 135-136

EMILY’S POV “What kind of bait?” I asked, eyes narrowing as I leaned forward slightly, trying to read more into Dave’s cryptic expression. A faint, cold smirk tugged at the edge of his lips, the kind that made my stomach turn with both unease and curiosity. It was the kind of look that meant he was holding onto something dangerous but possibly effective. Olivia, who had remained silent for a while now, suddenly stood up and scoffed in frustration. “Emily, don’t you understand?” she snapped, pointing at the tablet still resting on the glass table. “Look at the invitation card. Look at the date, the guests, the security detail. He’s planning to draw them in there, at the wedding anniversary.” My gaze returned to the screen, and sure enough, a high-profile digital invitation blinked in soft golden colors. Sinclair & Sinclair 30th Wedding Anniversary Celebration. A private event. Powerful attendees. High media attention. It was the perfect trap too perfect. “I disagree with it,” Olivi

Chapter 137-138

EMILY'S POV Things had been moving along smoothly for a week well, as smooth as they could be when everything was secretly boiling beneath the surface. Dave’s idea, as dangerous as it was, seemed to be working. He had been meticulous with his planning, and Olivia and I followed his lead, each of us playing our part carefully and silently. But as the days crept closer to the event, so did the tension. I could feel it in my bones. And now, the day of Dave’s parents' wedding anniversary had finally arrived. The calm before the storm had never felt so real. Over the past week, the ringing in my ears had come and gone like a ghost sometimes distant, sometimes sharp and close. But I didn’t tell anyone. Not even Ethan. I didn’t want to give anyone a reason to stop me from attending the event. I didn’t want anyone trying to protect me when this was something I needed to do. Physically, I was recovering. Mentally, I was sharpening myself like a blade. But those seven days hadn’t been with

Chapter 139-140

EMILY'S POV “What?!” Victoria screamed, stumbling backward, her hands trembling as she gripped the edge of the nearby table for balance. “No. No, this isn’t happening, this can’t be real. She can't be alive, her body was burnt. I witnessed it.” I descended the stairs slowly, each step measured, deliberate, echoing through the suddenly silent hall like a judge walking into a courtroom. The atmosphere had shifted. It wasn’t a party anymore, it was a stage. A stage where the truth was finally going to be performed in full view. "Should we have a little analepsis?" I asked, smiling slightly at the stunned audience. "A flashback, if you will. Let me take you back." FLASHBACK THE DAY OF MARA’S FAKE FUNERAL — HOSPITAL ROOM Where… where am I? That was the first thought that formed in my mind as the haze around me slowly began to clear. I tried to sit up, but every inch of my body protested. My throat felt like sandpaper, dry and burning. My voice came out hoarse, barely more than a bre

Chapter 141-142

EMILY’S POV The ringing wouldn’t stop. It roared in my ears like a raging storm, loud, unrelenting. I couldn’t hear anything else. Just the high-pitched, agonizing whine that pierced through my head and made the world around me spin. My vision blurred. Shapes turned into shadows. Faces blended into a palette of confusion and movement. I felt detached, like my body was standing in the room, but my mind was drifting far, far away. Then, a hand touched me. Startled, I gasped, stumbling back a little, my instincts kicking in. My hand shot up, ready to strike whoever it was. But just as fast, I froze. It was Mara. Her expression was full of concern, her mouth moving rapidly but I couldn’t hear a single word. Not a sound. Not even a whisper. Panic gripped my chest. Why couldn’t I hear her? Why did the ringing suddenly vanish only to leave me in complete silence? I blinked, trying to focus, to understand, but I couldn’t process anything she was saying. It felt like watching a mute

Chapter 143-144

EMILY’S POV After meeting with Dr. Maverick, I left the hospital with everyone; Olivia, Mara, and Ethan. The ride was quiet, but it wasn't the kind of silence that felt awkward. It was the kind that wrapped around us like a shared understanding, each of us deep in thought, exhausted by the emotional weight of the day. Ethan dropped me off at my apartment before heading back to work. He didn’t say much, just looked at me with those steady, dark eyes that always seemed to see through my forced calm. He gently squeezed my hand before I got out of the car. There was no need for words between us at that moment. Just the squeeze and it told me everything: You’re not alone. I’m here. Once inside the apartment, I leaned against the door as I shut it behind me, allowing the stillness to settle in my bones. I was tired. So, so tired not just physically, but emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. Olivia and Mara followed behind, their faces quiet but alert, like they were carefully watching

Chapter 145-146

EMILY’S POV “Ma?” I repeated, the word feeling strange on my tongue, almost as if I was repeating something in a dream I hadn’t yet processed. I stared at her, waiting no, hoping for clarification. For something. Anything. Finally, Denise spared me a proper glance. It was the first time she looked directly at me since I walked in since it was just me without her daughter around me. “DNA?” I repeated again, softer this time, like the word itself had lost oxygen. She didn’t answer right away. Instead, she smiled faintly, then reached for her half-empty coffee cup, taking a calm sip like she hadn’t just shaken the foundation beneath my feet. Like she hadn’t just said something that could rearrange everything. “I’ll get you a coffee,” she said unexpectedly and rose from her seat before I could respond. She didn’t wait for permission, or even a nod, just left and disappeared behind the polished counter. I sat frozen, unsure of what I was supposed to feel. Unsure of what I was even all

Chapter 147-148

EMILY’S POV I thought she had approached me today because she’d figured it out. I thought she had connected the dots that she had realized I was the woman calling Ethan at midnight. But she hadn’t. She was still in the dark. Then how did she even get the idea that I was having an affair with him? "Why do you think I'm having an affair with him?" I asked, unable to hide the curiosity in my voice. My heart beat faster as I waited for her reply. A small part of me feared she might say something that would expose more than I was ready to face. Her lips tightened slightly, her eyes flickering with a memory. “I saw you two one day,” she said, her voice low. “In front of the Sinclair’s home.” My chest tightened. “The way he looked at you…” she paused, trying to find the right words, “it was different. Not casual. Not professional. There was something… intense about it. Like you were someone he couldn’t take his eyes off. The way his gaze lingered, it made me think he had feelings for y
