Judy stood where she was long after Vanessa’s voice faded away.The living room felt too big. Too quiet. Too cold.Vanessa and her friend were gone, but their words were still hanging in the air like smoke that refused to disappear.Judy lowered her eyes slowly.Her hands were shaking.She did not understand why Vanessa hated her so much. She had done nothing wrong. She did not ask for this marriage. She did not ask for this life.Yet here she was, standing in a house that did not feel like home.Behind her, David stood still.His jaw was tight. His fists were clenched.He hated what just happened.He hated that Vanessa crossed the line. He hated that Judy looked small and hurt. Most of all, he hated that he did not stop it earlier.The silence between them was heavy.Too heavy.Judy wanted to speak, but no words came out.She felt like crying, but she refused.She had cried too much in her life already.David finally spoke.“Judy…”His voice was low. Calm. But differe

David’s day started early.Very early.He woke up before the sun rose, took a quick shower, dressed neatly in his dark suit, and left the house quietly.Judy was still asleep.He stood by her door for a second, then walked away.The drive to the company was quiet.His car moved smoothly through the busy city roads. Tall buildings passed by, people rushed to work, and the city looked alive.But David’s mind was not calm.He was thinking about Judy.About how quiet she had been.About breakfast without words.About the distance growing between them.He shook his head slightly.Focus, he told himself. This meeting is important.Soon, the car stopped in front of Pegasus Holdings.The tall glass building stood proudly, shining under the morning sun.David stepped out of the car.Employees bowed slightly and greeted him respectfully.“Good morning, sir.”“Good morning, Mr Jones.”David nodded as he walked in.Inside, everything was busy.Assistants moved fast.Phones rang.Laptops op

Clark sat in his office, the sunlight streaming through the tall glass windows. He had a meeting with his managers, but his mind wasn’t there. His eyes kept flicking to his phone, almost forgetting the papers in front of him. The moment he opened a news update, his heart skipped. The headline read: *“Pegasus Holdings Major Company Meeting – All Executives To Attend With Their Wives.”* His hand tightened around the pen. Judy. She would appear publicly again. Beside David Jones. The richest man in the country. His mind spun. He felt regret biting deep inside him. He had lost her. The realization hit harder than he expected. “How could I let her go?” he whispered to himself. “After everything… and now she’s with him. David Jones… of all people!” Isabella, his wife, walked in carrying her tablet. She noticed his distracted gaze, the way his hands trembled slightly. “Clark,” she said, tilting her head. “What’s wrong? You look… off today.” Clark hesitated. He wanted to

The Night Before Judy lay in bed, staring at the ceiling. The room was quiet, but her mind was noisy. Thoughts of the big company meeting tomorrow raced through her head. Her heart beat fast. Her stomach felt tight. Her hands were clammy. What if she embarrassed herself? What if she didn’t know what to say? What if she said something wrong in front of all those important people? She sighed softly. She couldn’t sleep. The soft sound of the door opening made her sit up. David stepped in quietly, carrying a tray. On it was a cup of warm tea, a small plate of biscuits, and a neatly folded napkin. “Couldn’t sleep?” he asked gently, setting the tray down on the small table beside her bed. Judy shook her head. “No… I’m just nervous about tomorrow.” David sat on the edge of the bed, careful not to crowd her space. He handed her the cup. “Here,” he said softly. “Drink this. It will help you relax.” She took the cup, feeling the warmth seep into her hands. She took

The next morning, the sun rose slowly, painting the sky in soft shades of pink and orange. The air was fresh, and the city seemed alive with movement. But Judy could hardly notice. Her heart was beating fast, louder than the sounds of the city. Today was the big day. The day of the company meeting. The day she had to appear beside David in front of everyone. She woke up early, even before her alarm. Her hands were shaking slightly as she got out of bed. The dress she had chosen with David yesterday lay neatly folded on the chair. It was simple yet elegant, perfect for the meeting. Her shoes, polished and shiny, were placed carefully beside it. Her hair had been styled to perfection. She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself. David had already left early to prepare for the meeting at the company. But he had left a note on the table. It said: *“Be confident. Walk beside me, and everything will be fine. Don’t worry. I am with you.”* Judy held the note tightly in her hands. H
