Chapter 111: People VICKYRue didn’t leave.He didn’t ask to stay either—he just made it clear with his body, his touch, the way he gently tucked the blanket around both of us. I was curled into his chest, his arm around my shoulders, my breathing finally beginning to slow as the nightmare faded into the corners of the room.He started talking. Not about what happened. Not about the dream. Just soft stories, Something to remove my mind from the worry , i was grateful for it . “I used to be so scared of the dark when I was a kid,” he whispered with a small chuckle. “Like, irrationally scared. I’d make Grandma sleep with the light on—and I’d tell her it was for her sake, not mine.”I let out a weak laugh, and he smiled at the sound of it. His hand stroked through my hair, slow and steady.“I once tried to run away from home because she grounded me,” he said again, resting his chin lightly on my head. “I packed two biscuits, my drawing book, and a toy car. Made it as far as the mango t

Chapter 113: MissingIt was now one hour to the board meeting.The file was still missing.I was beginning to feel like the walls were closing in. The planning team had found out, and their panic was worse than mine. For six whole months, they had poured themselves into that document—sleepless nights, endless revisions, site visits, budget breakdowns, timelines… everything. Now it was gone. Just like that.They weren’t even trying to hide their anger. I could hear them from their office—throwing blames like darts. Every few minutes, a new one would storm into mine.“How could you misplace it?”“You should have handed it in the moment you got it.”“Do you even know how important that file is?”Julia tried to calm them down. But her voice was drowned in the noise. She looked tired, too. Guilty, maybe. She kept wringing her hands and pacing, muttering that she had checked everywhere and she didn’t even leave the floor yesterday.To make it worse, the surveillance footage was useless.“Th

Chapter 115: This is me . VICKY As I walked out of the boardroom, I didn’t expect the sudden burst of attention.“Great presentation.”“That was impressive.”“Truly unexpected—well done.”One by one, members of the board nodded at me with new respect. The planning team, now suddenly humble, approached me like school kids who’d been caught cheating on an exam.“I… I just wanted to say we’re sorry,” one of them said, not meeting my eyes. “We shouldn’t have dismissed you like that. You handled it like a pro.”I smiled politely, even though part of me wanted to roll my eyes. “Thank you,” I said. “It’s all good. We got the job done.”They moved along.Then, of course, came Sienna.She stood in front of me, arms folded lightly. “Hmm. Nice presentation,” she said, voice cool.“Thanks,” I replied, holding her gaze without blinking.There was a long pause. The air between us felt stiff, like a wire being pulled too tight.Then she tilted her head, and with no emotion at all, she said, “Did y

Chapter 117: TaliaValerie’s POVI knew they were coming.I had barely dropped the news in the group chat when Melanie sent a bunch of crying emojis and said they were on their way. I didn’t even bother to respond. I just muted the chat, dimmed the lights in the living room, and put The Vampire Diaries on. Damon’s sarcasm always did something for me. Maybe it was the distraction, maybe it was the fact that he looked like someone who wouldn’t care if you did something bad.The show had just started getting interesting when I heard the knock. I didn’t panic. I grabbed the remote, paused the episode, and tossed the throw blanket around me like I had been shivering under it all day. I even practiced my sad face in the black TV screen. Tilted my head. Blank eyes. Maybe a tear if they stayed long enough.The door creaked open and the familiar voices came flooding in. They were here . “Oh my God, Valerie,” Melanie said first. She rushed over and wrapped her arms around me like I was about t

Chapter 119: Secret Cracks . Valerie’s Pov The truth was, every second I stayed here, it felt like Vicky was somewhere else… smiling. Winning. Living. That thought burned hotter than anything. I slipped my shoes back on and headed for the door.“Where are you going?” Williams’ voice cut through the hallway.I stopped just short of the door and glanced over my shoulder. He was leaning against the wall, looking like he hadn’t slept in days, but there was nothing in his face that said he cared about me — not even after what had just “happened.”“To put petrol on fire,” I said plainly, my hand still on the doorknob.He stared at me for a moment like he wanted to ask more, but as usual, he didn’t. Williams was far too wrapped up in whatever was going on in his own head to bother. Fine by me.The moment I was in the car, I pulled out my phone and dialed Sienna. She picked up almost immediately, her tone soft and dripping with sympathy.“Oh, Val… I heard. I’m so sorry. I can’t even imagine
