The event host called everyone's attention. “Good evening distinguished guests! Our charming birthday girl has something to announce to all of us. Let's hear what she has to say!”Everyone stayed quiet and focused their attention on Nora.Nora thanked the host before addressing everyone. “Good evening to all of the guests here tonight. First, I would like to extend my deepest gratitude for taking the time to celebrate my birthday with me. My mom, especially," Nora said, smiling at Dianne in the audience, “has done everything in her power to make this event nothing short of perfect.”Dianne smiled lovingly at her daughter while Anna affectionately squeezed her mother-in-law's hand.Nora's eyes softened at the sight of her mother. “Thank you, Mom. You have always outdone yourself in everything you do. And we're always grateful for you and Grandpa. We love you more than words can ever justify.”The guests were deeply moved by Nora's words. The women dabbed at their eyes, wiping away th

The woman rose from the couch. Smoothing her hair, she walked over to Anna. “Looking for Dalton?” she asked, smirking the whole time. The disgust in Anna’s eyes was apparent. “You should know,” her voice was laced with sarcastic rage. “Well,” the woman trailed off, enjoying herself. “He left. Can’t blame him. He was already satisfied,” Anna’s palm jerked involuntarily. How she longed to slap this girl! But still, she had to be sure. Anna directly stared into the girl’s eyes. “Are you my husband’s mistress?” she asked, her voice full of contempt. The girl lifted her chin, saying defiantly. “If that’s what you call it. Then yes, I am—” SMACK The rest of her words hung in the air as her head was thrown to the side. She lifted her hand to cradle her swollen cheek. “Tell me,” Anna spat her words coldly. “Is it worth it being a mistress?” “Don’t blame me for your incompetence!” she glared at Anna. Anna was about to reach for the girl’s eyesore of a hair when the door opened wit

“What?” Rachel asked in shock, although there was a hint of disbelief in her voice. “Are you sure?” Anna’s nod was barely visible. “I got confirmation last night.” Rachel was still not sure. She stared at Anna, stunned. “Are you sure?” she asked again. “Yes,” Anna replied. “I saw it with my own eyes.” “Who was the wretched girl?” Rachel demanded, ready to attack the mistress. “I don’t know her name, but she was the first of Dalton’s mistresses. The one who looked like Lara.” Rachel’s tense laugh escaped from her lips. “That one picture we saw on the beach?” Anna nodded. Rachel let out a bunch of curses under her breath. “And that pig had the audacity to ask me to back off from your marriage, as if he hadn’t been doing despicable things behind your back!” “Wait, was it that girl with a cockroach inside her dress last night?” Rachel demanded when she remembered something. “Yes, that was the one.” “Is Dalton blind or just downright stupid? That girl has nothing on your

Rachel understood what she meant but she was still not done with Dalton, so she continued. “Get out of here, Dalton! You make me sick. I don’t even want to see your shadow, let alone your face! Leave and never show me your shadow ever again. “If I see even a speck of your shadow, I will make sure that you will be using a cane to walk for the rest of your life!” She finished her speech with a resounding door slam in Dalton’s face. Dalton was left outside, staring in shock at the door, the bouquet still in his hand. Mark hurried over to Dalton. “What was she so mad about?” he asked anxiously. “For some reason,” Dalton answered, still stunned. “My shadow.” Dalton and Mark left in stunned silence. They had no idea what prompted Rachel’s rage nor Anna’s aloofness. Mark was left wondering about the fickleness of women’s emotions, and how easily they change from time to time. He was still holding the gifts that had been supposedly for Anna. But with Rachel’s outburst they didn’t

“So,” Dalton said coldly. “This is all I am to you? A cheater and a liar who was playing you like a fool?”“Am I wrong?” Anna snapped. Her tears were starting to spill, but she willed herself to stay strong. She refused to cry in front of Dalton. He doesn’t deserve that.Dalton let out a shaky breath, while trying to keep his temper in check.“Anna, even just for old time’s sake, you’re really not going to let me explain myself to you?”“What’s there to explain?”“You’re not even going to give me the benefit of the doubt? You’ll just readily assume that I’m all those despicable things you’ve said?”Anna let out an unbelieving scoff.“It’s like you really don’t know me, Anna,” he leveled a gaze at her. “Don’t you trust me, even just a little?”“Trust?” Anna asked incredulously.“Even not as your husband, but as your best friend for more than two decades!”“Trust, Dalton?” Anna repeated. “How can I trust you when you can’t even be honest with me?”“When have I ever lied to you?” Dalton
