Chapter 81 The ring that vanished

EMILYSteve was fussing over every detail, running a hand through his hair for what had to be the fifteenth time while pointing at the decorators setting up the Will you marry me? and Please, marry me signboards.“No, no...tilt that one a little to the right,” he called out, then glanced at me with nervous eyes. “Do you think it’s too much?”I laughed softly. “Steve, if this were any more perfect, we’d have to send it to a bridal magazine.”Sasha was arranging roses along the edges of the stage, Donald was checking the seating alignment, and Williams—always the quiet observer—was giving instructions to the orchestra in the corner. Even Ivy was helping, tying ribbons around the backs of chairs with that innocent little smile she always wore.“You know,” Sasha said as she placed another vase, “if Claire says no, we’ll have to turn this into a Will you forgive me? party.”Donald smirked. “You’re too confident she’ll say yes.”“She will,” Steve said without missing a beat, his voice carry

Chapter 83 Her own vendetta

Author's POVThe loud call for dinner echoed through the prison halls. Cell doors creaked open one by one as the prisoners rushed out, eager to eat. Some jogged, others walked fast. No one wanted to be late at the dining table.But not Julius.He stayed in his cell, sitting quietly on his bed, his back against the wall, arms folded. His face didn’t show hunger or worry. He simply waited.Julius never liked the food served in the dining room. The watery porridge, the dry bread, or the tasteless salmon sauce—they all made his stomach turn. He hated it.But he wasn’t worried.He had something the others didn’t—Officer Diane.Ever since they got close, Diane made sure he was treated differently. She brought him better food, fresh fruit juice, and sometimes even things the other prisoners couldn’t dream of having. She didn’t care about the rules when it came to him.Julius trusted her. He knew she would come.His stomach growled a little, but he didn’t move. Time passed, and his eyes grew

Chapter 84 No mercy

Author's POVDiane didn’t even think. Her body just reacted.As the stranger’s voice called out from behind her, her heart skipped a beat, but her feet spun around. The man stepped forward, maybe to ask questions, maybe to stop her. She didn’t wait to find out.One fast, sharp movement—and her fist flew straight between his legs.A solid punch to the scrotum!He let out a painful, broken cry and dropped to his knees, grabbing himself as he gasped for air. Diane didn’t stay to admire the damage. She turned and ran.No looking back.Her feet pounded the ground as she raced out of the uncompleted building. Her breath was heavy, and her heart felt like it might break through her chest. She didn’t care. All she knew was that she had to get out. Fast.The gun was hidden safely in her bag. That was all that mattered now.She kept running until the building was far behind her, and after what felt like forever, she finally reached a familiar street. The lights, the small shops, even the quiet

Chapter 85 Steve's visit

SASHAI was in the middle of tying Jayden’s shoelaces when I heard the doorbell ring. “Hold on!” I shouted toward the door while I finished up with his second shoe.Jayden smiled up at me. “Mommy, who’s that?”“I don’t know, baby,” I said, brushing his little curls back from his forehead. “Let me go check.”I got up quickly and walked to the front door. As I opened it, I was a little surprised.“Steve?” I blinked. “Good morning… what brings you here so early?”He gave me a small, tired smile. “Morning, Sasha.”I stepped aside a little, assuming he was here for Claire. “She just left for work, actually. Barely ten minutes ago.”He looked surprised. “Oh. I didn’t know.”“You didn’t call her before coming?”“No,” he replied, rubbing the back of his neck. “I… I should have, I guess.”I studied him for a second. Something felt off. He looked tired. His eyes were a bit puffy, like he hadn’t slept well. And he wasn’t dressed like his usual self either—more casual, slightly rushed.“You okay

Chapter 86 Her Big day

SASHAClaire’s wedding day was finally here, and honestly, I don’t think I’ve ever seen her this happy. She was glowing—like seriously glowing. I stood behind her, gently adjusting her veil while Emily added the final touches to the back of her gown.“You look like a princess,” I whispered, smiling at her through the mirror.Claire laughed, blushing. “Stop it, Sasha.”“I’m serious. Steve’s jaw is going to drop.”Her makeup was perfect, if I do say so myself. I had done it with all the care in the world. Light foundation, soft glam eyes, a nude lip, and lashes that brought out her beautiful brown eyes. She was glowing, and not just because of the makeup. She looked genuinely happy. Peaceful.Emily walked slowly toward us, holding a small bouquet. She moved with more confidence now. No more crutches—just her artificial leg. She looked strong. She was even carrying another baby. Yep, she and Donald had tied the knot a few months ago, and here she was, glowing again with another baby bump

Chapter 87 The evil people do

Author's POVIt was a calm morning in Officer Diane’s apartment. The sun peeked through the curtains, casting a warm glow over the cozy kitchen. Diane sat at her small dining table, enjoying a breakfast of tea, omelette, and a few slices of bread. She sipped her tea, savoring the peaceful start to her day.Just as she took another bite of her bread, the doorbell rang. Not expecting anyone, she called out, "Come in!" The door opened, and Ivy stepped inside with a bright smile."Ivy!" Diane exclaimed, standing up to greet her friend. They embraced warmly, happy to see each other."Good morning," Ivy said cheerfully."Good morning," Diane replied. "Come, have a seat." She gestured to the chair across from her. "Would you like some breakfast? There's plenty of omelette, tea, and bread.""Thank you, that sounds lovely," Ivy responded, taking the offered seat.Diane poured Ivy a cup of tea from the jug and placed a plate with a generous serving of omelette and a couple of bread slices in fr

Chapter 88 Just a little peace

SASHAIt’s been eight months now since Claire and Steve finally got married.Looking back, I still can’t believe how everything turned out. After all the chaos, the betrayals, the tears… they actually made it down the aisle. I remember watching Claire walk into that hall in her white dress, smiling like she had never been hurt. And Steve? He looked at her like she was the only person in the world. Maybe they were really meant to be after all.Now, Claire’s eight months pregnant. My girl is glowing every single day. Sometimes I just stare at her belly and smile. We’ve come a long way. She still calls me every evening just to talk about random things — baby kicks, cravings, nursery paint colors. It feels good to see her this happy.Emily too is doing well. She had her second baby with Donald seven months ago. A beautiful baby girl. She named her Hope, and I don’t think there’s a more perfect name for her. After everything Emily has been through — the accident, the heartbreak, the loss —

Chapter 89 No peace, war looms

SASHAI just needed a break. A change of space. With everything going on between Williams and me, I figured spending a day at his clothing office might distract me. Besides, I had nothing else lined up, and helping him supervise his staff didn’t seem like a bad idea.As I stepped out of the car and walked toward the building, I noticed how the staff greeted me warmly, some smiling widely, others nodding respectfully. I didn’t miss the way a few whispered as I passed. Of course, they saw me as the boss’s woman. Even if things between Williams and me weren’t clear right now, they didn’t know that. In their eyes, I was still the woman he would marry someday.I went straight to Jeff’s office—Williams’ manager. His eyes widened when he saw me.“Sasha… wow, good afternoon,” he said, standing up quickly. “I wasn’t expecting you.”I frowned. “Why do you sound surprised, Jeff? Am I a stranger here?”He scratched the back of his head nervously. “No, no, not at all. I just… I didn’t know you wer
