Jasmine The key slid into the lock with a soft click. For a brief second, I frowned. The door wasn't fully shut. "What the..." I slowly pushed the door open. The sight that greeted me made me stop dead in my tracks. "What the hell?" The living room looked as if a hurricane had swept through it. The couch had been shoved halfway across the room, one of its cushions ripped open, with the stuffing spilling onto the floor. The coffee table had been overturned, its legs sticking awkwardly into the air. The shelves had been emptied, their contents scattered everywhere. Books lay torn and trampled, picture frames had been smashed, and broken pieces of glass glittered beneath the afternoon sunlight pouring through the windows. Even the cabinet doors had been flung open. Everything had been turned upside down. I stood frozen at the entrance. What was the meaning of this? How did someone get inside? I had personally locked Carl's apartment after his death. I still had

Aaron"Easy now, Mr. Aaron."The nurse's calm voice cut through the room as she slipped another pillow behind my back."Don't stress yourself.""I know," I muttered, letting out a quiet breath as I shifted my weight.A dull ache still lingered in my chest, but it wasn't nearly as unbearable as it had been a few days ago. My muscles felt weak from lying in bed for so long, yet every passing day seemed to bring back a little more strength."There," she said with a satisfied smile after adjusting the pillow. "Is that better?"I leaned back carefully before giving her a small nod."Much better."She wheeled the overbed table closer before placing the breakfast tray directly in front of me. The aroma of freshly cooked eggs immediately drifted into the air."There you go, Mr. Aaron."A neatly folded napkin rested beside the plate. There was an omelette, toast, sliced fruit, and a cup of warm tea."If you need anything at all, just press the call button." She pointed toward the small remote

Jasmine"So... it's you?"The words slipped from my lips with disgust as I stared across the deserted port at the woman standing several feet away from me.Jenny merely lifted her chin higher. There wasn't the slightest trace of shame on her face. Instead, she smiled.A smug... infuriating smile."Yes," she admitted without hesitation. "It was me. I was the one who sent that message."I let out a loud scoff.Of course it was.Who else could it have been?After speaking with the building management, she was the last person seen entering Carl's apartment.I shook my head, muttering beneath my breath. "Carl really was blind."Jenny frowned."He couldn't even tell that the woman he was keeping around was nothing more than a gold digger."The moment the words left my mouth, her expression darkened."You have no right to call me names, Jasmine!"Her voice echoed sharply through the nearly empty harbor."So what if I'm a gold digger?" she snapped, pointing a finger directly at me. "What does

Axel"What was the meaning of this?!"I muttered under my breath as I stared at the email displayed on my laptop.The more I read, the more irritated I became. This made absolutely no sense!A knock suddenly sounded on my office door. Before I could respond, the door opened, and Derek walked inside.The moment my eyes landed on him, I immediately asked, "Have you seen this?!"Derek sighed heavily. "Unfortunately, I have."I slammed my laptop shut, unable to hide my irritation. "Who could be responsible for something like this?"Derek shook his head."I have no idea yet, but I've already pulled my team together to make inquiries about it. Hopefully, we'll have some news by this evening.""They better have news because this is completely unacceptable!"I leaned back in my chair, running an irritated hand through my hair.I found it difficult to believe that a solid deal like the one between Sterling and Hawthorne Capitals could suddenly start having problems.It was a contract I'd cons

AxelI found myself standing here… in this same park where everything had supposedly begun more than a decade ago.The realization alone made my chest tighten. I'd been told that this was the park where I used to spend time with Anna. The park where we'd met and created some of the most precious memories of my childhood.Yet, despite knowing all of that, I'd never come here. Perhaps because I had always felt there was no need since Anna, the person who made the memories worth it, was already with me.But now, after everything that had happened… everything I had known for years suddenly felt questionable. Even the memories I'd held closest to my heart seemed to have developed cracks.Jasmine… wasn't my Anna?I shook my head.Maybe Natalie had gotten it wrong. People changed, people grew, and more than a decade was a really long time. We had been children back then. Maybe Natalie didn't remember everything correctly.But then… what about Jasmine? What about everything that had happened
